John sat down on the box that was laying to the side of the street and pulled out a packet of cigarettes and put one between his lips before offering Gareth one and pulled out matches to light his own before speaking.

"I've heard rumours about my father doing time before I was born. They never spoke of it and I think it's part of the past my father wishes to hide" he took a draw from the cigarette. "From what I hear you've been put out the newspaper because of the fire. And which I may add. Had nothing to do with me. My brother is a fireman. I might be hot headed but id never put his life at risk" another draw was taken before he spoke once more "ill make you a deal. You keep my family away from the papers and I'll give you one hell of a story that's about to happen"
