They Will Always Be His Family
Off in a non-descript home Gideon and Tadashi are handling some business on Dai's behalf.
"What's the issue with this one?"
"He's just an underling, Not everyone appreciates Daisuke's attempt at legitimization. So it's been a hassle to weed out the troublemakers"
Tadashi: For a pretty boy, you're pretty unfazed when it comes to the gritty details
Gideon: Hmm, I'm aware of what I signed up for. Daisuke is doing me a great favor the least I can do is help in return
Tadashi: Doing all this for what?
Gideon: How is that any of your concern?
Tadashi: Don't get your panties in a twist. It's just that I heard from a little birdie that you're doing all this for your little boyfriend. What was his name? Gra-
Gideon: Don't.
Tadashi: Sorry! Don't worry I mean no harm! If he's yours he's protected. We always protect our own
Gideon: Sure. Putting that aside. How do you plan on disposing of this person?
Tadashi: Don't worry too much, he'll be used as an example. Let me finish up and we can head on our way"
While waiting Gideon gets a call that shakes him "I beg your pardon? In which hospital? I'll be right there"
Tadashi: Sounds serious. I'll be fine on my own you go ahead and deal with that issue
Gideon: Thank you. Please Let Daisuke know it is an emergency I may not be able to come into the office tomorrow
Tadashi: Don't worry about it, pretty boy"
Gideon dashes out of the house and into the night
Finding Grayson passed out on the cold floor drenched in the rain was one of the scariest things Su had ever witnessed. Grayson getting attacked and almost left for dead for what? A spoiled kid who doesn't know how to handle his family matters? Grayson deserved better.
Su: Holy fuck Grayson, you have no idea how scared I was seeing you on the floor like that
Grayson: What happened?
Su: Jesus Grayson you were attacked and I found you passed out on the ground. The police should be here shortly
Grayson is visibly distraught, in all his years he has never been faced with such violence. Rattled and scared he recounts everything that happened "Su I was so scared, that person said he would hurt my sisters. They said I should leave Gideon alone"
This is the moment that Su has been waiting for, the perfect opportunity. How can a couple survive this? They don't. "Grayson. Do you want to put Gideon above your own sisters?"
Grayson: No, but-
Su: There are no buts Grayson. Think about yourself for once. Look at you. Your arm isn't broken but what if there is a next time. What are you going to do if you can't paint anymore? How would Gideon fix that?
Grayson: But it's not his fault
Su: It's his family and they won't ever disappear Grayson. They will always be his family.
Grayons head is a mess right now, nothing makes sense, and things definitely shouldn't have reached this stage. What are his parents going to say? Su is making sense but what should he even do?
Grayson: What should I do then?
Su: Don't put your safety in Gideon's hands. You have to think about yourself Grayson, if not yourself then your sisters. Do you want them getting hurt? What's more important Gideon or your family? Just think about it okay?
Grayson: Okay...
Su: I'll visit you tomorrow
