Yes, it is an idiomatic expression meaning that someone is looking after, or watching over, someone else. This is drawn from a situation (e.g. a fight or battle) when someone is engaged in an activity where an inherent danger may be "behind" them and hence unseen.

Is just gotten back a correct grammar?

In this case we would need to know the full sentence with the subject. For instance, if you say I have or I've...it would be correct to use gotten. However, although the sentence may be correct if you are using "have" in the sentence, the best way to say this sentence would be to eliminate have altogether. Then "gotten" would not be correct. You would say, "I just got back" or "We just got back". Usually when you are using have in the sentence (other than stating possession) than the use of "gotten" can be the correct usage for the word "got". In this sentence, since "back" is not something that is/was possessed, than gotten is the correct term if you are using "have" in the sentence. For example, if you were to say "we've gotten the answer", than that would be incorrect because it is showing possession. In this case you would want to say, "we've got the answer". There are many other rules pertaining to the use of gotten.
