After Trevor left Dylan in the flat after finding out his secret, Dylan broke down and after ripping off the dress he was wearing, went to his room to change and to pack.

This is the note he left for his father before he ran away.

I knew you'd take it bad. Be upset. Hate me. But I still can't believe what's just happened.

I wish I could tell you why, what it is that makes me do it, but I've no idea.

All I know is that when I dress the way you saw me today, it's like I can relax, I can breathe.

I'm sorry that I can't be the son you wanted. I was a mistake from the moment I was born, and I just wanted so much to mean something to you. But the son you want is not who I am, and for that I am sorry.

I tried for so long to be 'your son', but I guess I'm just not. You're better off without such an embarrassment for a child.

Sorry Dylan

P.S if you do get the baby off Ester, Don't panic, just remember to be there for him no matter what, and he'll turn out better than me.

I KNOW I'M IN THE MIDDLE OF A LONGER FANFIC AT THE MINUTE. BUT WHEN I WAS WATCHING HOLLYOAKS TODAY. I COULDN'T HELP BUT WONDER WHY DYLAN WOULD WANT TO CHANGE WHO HE WAS FOR A FATHER THAT HAD ALREADY ABANDONED HIM AS A CHILD. WHY DIDN'T HE JUST LEAVE?

THERE IS A POSSIBILITY I WILL DO A FOLLOW UP FROM THIS OF TREVOR FINDING THE NOTE, HIS REACTION, ETC. BUT I MAKE NO PROMISES.

….THANKS FOR READING…..
