RP: Sunday dinner
Who: Savannah, Marty, Robert, Mike, Jenna, Dom, Sean, Troy, kids and dogs
Where: Robert's former house
When: Sunday, December 30, 2012
Summary: It's a strange dinner

The last time that they had met without Sam and G for dinner, it had been back at the ranch. It was May and they needed to celebrate a birthday. Before then, Sean was still trying to figure out things with Troy. In short, it was a rare occurrence and it was not something that Savannah wanted to get used to, even thought she knew they'd have to.

She tried to make the good food (especially after what she'd heard about cooking), picking everyone's favorites. Still despite everything, the atmosphere was very different.

"No, we are having the same conversation, just different parts," Sean replied with a tiny smile. "You asked if I'd be okay with it and I said it should be fine. Explaining about other people using was just that: further explanation as to why it should be fine. Same with the comment about Marty and Derek. You said 'if you had a say', I was just explaining why even if you don't, it should be fine."

Returning the hug just as tightly, he kissed her forehead as she pulled away. "He really, really would," he said, chuckling. "But, I promise it was only a bit of experimentation a long time ago."

Sean tossed the towel back over his shoulder, folding his arms as he leaned back against the counter. "I know we're going to get them back. There are too many stubborn, headstrong fighters in this family not to. Doesn't make it easier, but I know. You don't need to worry about me. I'll be fine. I've learned to deal. And I'm not the only one missing them, am I?"

"You've been spending too much time with G," she said with a smile. "You're explaining why it's the same conversation. You are not really paying attention to the part where I said if you would be okay not if it would be fine. You're also not telling me if you are okay, but I'll let it go. For now. I got G to talk; I'm not going to let members of my unit avoid my questions like that."

Savannah laughed. "He really, really would, regardless of how long ago and how little you tried. It can be our secret, though."

She went back to the dishes, eyes darting between her chores and Sean. "Of course, I have to worry about you. We're family, it's what we do, we worry and carry for each other. I worry about everyone. That doesn't mean that you're weak or different or whatever you think. I speak to Marty all the time. I've spoken to Robert. If anyone is different, it's Jenna. I never know when what I say will be taken wrong, but at least I know we're talking now and I'll give her a few days, before talking to her as well." She passed him another plate. "So how's the hand? When do you think you'll have full range with no danger of hurting yourself again?"

Sean laughed. "No, I think you're the one who's been spending too much time with G. You're asking for very precise words where most people would understand that 'it will be fine' is the same as 'yeah, I'm okay with Tommy'. I'm not avoiding your questions, Savannah. You asked if I'd be okay with Tommy. I will be. If what you're really asking is am I okay with everything else, do me a favor and don't ask. I do better when I don't have to talk about it. I practically bit Jen's head off the other night when she tried."

Shrugging, he pulled the towel off his shoulder and started drying as she washed. "Technically, I should be done with physical therapy and out of danger of reinjury in another three or four weeks. After that it's just about continuing to work to see how much of my range of motion I can get back. But, that's only important for playing. I should be fully field ready when I finish therapy, though."

"I wouldn't if I didn't know you have a way of putting others before yourself," she answered, "but that's enough for now, and I'm not asking you if you're all right. None of us are really okay," she said matter of fact.

Savannah nodded. "All right, we'll work slowly for the next month, and even after that, you know I've always been careful with your hands." She kept passing the last of the plates. All the pots had been cleaned at her house. She'd just brought plates and containers, and she planned to clean the containers at home. "Come on, we should bring coffee in there." She stopped in front of him. "You don't have to be okay right now. We don't have to talk about it, but there's a couch, a computer, a blanket and some popcorn. We can spend time together if you ever need it."
