My heart is my family, and everyone knows that. I'm an easy going guy till you piss me off then you better watch out! Especially if your messing with my wife or kids. I have a temper but it's not that easy to rile me. If you do then it's something bad. I love kids and watching the wonder on their face as they learn something new. I like learning things too whether it be from books or a part of life.

In the heart of the Vieux Carre is where we are located. Vieux Carré Historic District is a National Historic Landmark located in New Orleans, LA in the area generally bounded by Esplanade Ave. to the north, the Mississippi River to the east, Canal St., Decatur St., and Iberville St. to the south, and Basin S., St. Louis St., and North Rampart St. to the west. Vieux Carre literally means old square. It is also known as the French Quarter, and it is the oldest neighborhood in the city of New Orleans.

I was born on one of the foggiest days in New Orleans. It was January 9th, and mom went into labor with me during the night. I was born a few hours later during the early morning fog. The fog hardly lifted the rest of the day casting New Orleans into shadows. Welcoming me into this world were my parents Liberty and Justice Garard, and my two older brothers Jacob and Matthew. My parents were the alpha and luna of the pack, and my brother Jacob would be the future alpha.

Growing up with two older rough and tumble brothers wasn't easy especially when I was the scrawny one. Jacob and Mattie could match one another in anything, but me if they tried wrestling with me I was pinned within seconds. They may have picked on me, but I was never hurt in any way. If I was then it was an accident that they would both apologize for it. We were each a year apart, and were close, but my older brothers were closer. If that makes sense. If I got picked on they were there to stop it. So the other kids knew better than to pick on me about anything.

My best friend growing up was Kayla LeDoux. Her older sister Candy we all knew would be Luna of the pack one day with my big brother Jacob. Kayla and I did pretty much everything together. She was my first for everything. I still remember our first kiss as if it were yesterday. I had been excited about something, and just grabbed her in front of all of the pack and kissed her. We were thirteen at the time. It wasn't till I heard the catcalls and whistles that I realized what I did, and let her go gaping. I was bright red too hearing her mother's oohing and ahhing over us.

She was my first date to a junior high dance, and I knew she would be my mate when we turned sixteen. Of course I turned sixteen first, and had to wait, but I already felt the pull towards her as my mate. That pull exploded when she turned sixteen and we were indeed mates! Even though it was expected that we would be mates I was more than happy. I couldn't imagine ever being with anyone else.

We've been together ever since, and have four awesome boys and our beautiful baby girl! We couldn't be happier. Our lives have totally changed now though. It happened on New Years eve at the stroke of midnight. An unprecedented earthquake struck. it was shocking as I had never felt an earthquake before. It happened as I was kissing my wife, and I thought at first maybe our kiss was shaking the earth where we stood. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. When I came to I made sure my wife was alright and we headed out with the others seeing the landscape had totally changed. Others were emerging from other buildings looking just as shocked as we were. Cut off from the rest of the world it seemed. At least we were all together to conquer whatever came our way!

Jordan was grinning, and he started to say something, but got a weird look on his face as he was definitely thinking now. Images of the food were coming to mind, but he couldn’t for the life of him think of the names of the establishments the food was at. Now that he thought about it parts of it were blurry, but for the memory of the food and how it tasted. Thinking some more he let out a laugh. “Now that I think about it I can tell you the foods, but not the places.” He smirked as he chuckled a little more. “Cause we usually hit them after our pub run even though we eat a bunch while at the pub.” He was trying to piece together where they went after their pub run. He knew his wallet was usually empty the mornings after. The bar tab was only paid once a month so it hadn’t all been spent there either. “Well there is a Shepherd's pie to die for, at one of the places. Another has some excellent Applewood smoked BBQ Ribs. Oh there’s the lemon-herbed chicken that seems to melt in your mouth. There’s a sticky toffee pudding somewhere too that blows your mind.” He stopped to think some more about the food. “Josh always gets the steak and Kidney pie somewhere that’s in a bread bowl. I hate the kidney part though.” He admitted, but if it was something she liked. “Oh there’s Cornish pasties that are awesome, uhh somewhere too.” He furrowed his brow knowing they had to be here in Diagon Alley somewhere. He knew if he looked he’d recognize the place, but he still couldn’t think of the names of the places. “Hey you should join us for a pub night sometimes! Almost every one there is a Quidditch player or in the business of Quidditch. It’s not very well known in the community though to be honest. It’s been around for years though, cause my dad and his buddies used to hang out there. He’s the one who told us about it.” He grinned at her.

Jordan laughed hearing her and shook his head. He had more than his share of Quidditch things. He didn’t think he had better admit that though. Especially when he kept adding to it. Though the place where he and his brothers lived was more than big enough for it. Their friends were always crashing at their place. “Never know when something new might come in handy.” Was all he said to that. He grinned widely at her. “No definitely no lover. The youngest of the Matheson’s. Drew and Angel. Angel has her own Quidditch gear and clothes, but ours just seem to disappear and show up later with her either carrying it or wearing it. Since that’s been happening since she was little we are used to it now, and just replace it.” He shrugged since it was nothing new to him, and would probably still be happening when they were old and gray. “She’s not spoiled either. She works for what she gets the same as us boys. If she’s not thinking about Quidditch she has animals flocking to her.” He knew that could get a little overwhelming at times. He pointed over at the bookshelf in the far corner when she asked about the books. “There’s a whole section of books over there.” He grinned at her wondering if she had a one track mind when she came in here. He definitely didn’t. “Or you could come over and check out our library, and borrow some books.” He offered. He could spend hours in this store, and go back looking again seeing something he had missed the first time. Which sometimes wasn’t a good thing cause if it was something cool he’d pick it up for his siblings too. With how much he picked up he had bags full which was hard to get home then. Trying to apparate with that much stuff was unbearable. After losing some of his stuff one time he started taking the knight bus home.

“Follow me darling.” Jordan grinned when she asked about the gloves. He led her over to the gear section and pointed out the display of gloves that they had that was pretty impressive of the new brand Ollie’s Gloves. There were practically every color you could imagine there. “Ollie is a friend of mine. When he comes up with something new he has me and some others try his stuff out. After I try them out if they're good then I send whatever it is to Angel to try out at Hogwarts. If it’s not ready I let Ollie know for sure, and he works on it till he perfects it.” He explained to her. Sometimes it was a lot of fun trying out whatever Ollie came out. Other times it was disastrous. His brother Gregory had ended up at St Mungo's after one of those incidents. His mother had sent him more than one angry howler over that one. What was great was she had sent them to Ollie too telling him he better get his head on straight! “What’s awesome about these gloves too is that they come in one size, but they form to your hands after you put them on. So they are perfect then!” He said handing his items he had picked up to the clerk who came over to take them from him so he could pick up more if he wanted to. He hadn’t even noticed the girl checking him out and giving him a come hither smile.
