Myra was looking at her son ,she couldn't believe that the time was here, it was time to tell her son. Tell her son that everything he knew, his life, his past, his present and maybe his future too was a lie.
"Your not my son."
John Paul just stood there not believing what he was hearing, was it a joke, some kind of game. His mother, the woman that raised him, comforted him, been there for him all his life had to be joking, just had to be. It was just some sick joke that the rest of the family was playing on him and now his sisters were going to jump out and yell Gotcha!. Nothing happened, no one jumped out, no one was there to tell him what was really happening, there was just him and his mom.
"You can't be serious mom, what is really going on here?" John Paul's mind was going 100 kilometers per minute.
"I know I should have told you sooner but I didn't want to put our family in danger."
"Mom, stop saying these things, I'm your son, quit being like this." He sat down beside his mom on the couch and put his arm around her. "I know what Kieron and my relationship did to you and I am sorry for that but he is gone now so please forgive me."
"You don't understand." Myra jumped up off the couch. "This is not about that bastard. What I am trying to say is..."
All of a sudden the door swung open and in came his sisters with countless bags. Jacqui the oldest and toughest, Mercedes the bitchy second, Tina the smart third, Carmel the gullible fourth and Michaela the fifth and the town gossip.
"Sorry mom we're late but someone had to go back and buy a pair of ear rings." Jacqui glared pointedly at Michaela. The youngest sister just scoffed and rolled her eyes. "So what did you want to talk to us about."
Everyone was now sitting looking at the matriarch of the McQueen family. The family had gone through so much and Myra wondered if they could get through this. They all would hate her and that was okay because she deserved it but she hoped that her children would stay together and be there for their brother, the only constant male figure in the group. "What I am about to do might hurt but believe me for it has to happen now."
"I can't believe your really doing this. I thought we were over the Kieron issue." John Paul stood up and ran up the stairs to his room.
The rest of the McQueen went after him, as the sisters and mother entered John Paul's room, they found him putting clothes and the rest of his belongings into a bag. "What are you doing John Paul?" Tina was the first to speak "tell us what's wrong."
"Mom here still has a problem with what I did." John Paul couldn't help the tears that were forming and didn't care. It had been three months since Kieron left, three long months of trials for mother and son. It had shaken the McQueen family when the affair came out and because of that Kieron left and has not contacted anyone in Hollyoaks since. It was just four weeks ago that Myra said she forgave John Paul and two week since he was aloud to move back in.
Carmel shook her head at her mother. "Mom I thought you were over this."
"John Paul, listen to me, this is not what you think." Myra pleaded with her son as she placed her hands lovingly on her sons to get him to stop packing. "Please just sit down and let me finish this time."
John Paul sat down on his bed moving the full bag of clothes on the floor with one hand and wiping his tear with the other. The second youngest child just sat there waiting for the bomb to drop because while there was nervousness his his mothers eyes there was also fear and when Myra McQueen showed that emotion to her kids all hell would break loose.
