Chapter 1
Dylan is a single father, his wife Antonia was killed in a horrific car accident a year and half ago. Dylan sat in the doctor's office's waiting news about his three year old daughter Amber Antonia McKay. Amber had been sick off and on for awhile now. The doctor ran some test. Dr. Timothy Makinnly walked into his office he had a grim look on his face. By the look on his face Dylan he knew it was bad.
"Dylan I am going to be strait with you Amber has a very rare form of Liver cancer and it is in stage four." Doctor Makinnly told him.
Dylan felt the shock go through out his body. Time stopped he could not think. Not his little girl; he could not lose her. Amber was all he had left. Fear started to take over. Right now nothing made any since. How would he tell Amber that she is very sick she is only three years old? His daughter is dying and he feels helpless.
"Dylan we are going to have to start talking about treatment and the options there are." He told him.
Chemotherapy and radiation the thought of it for Amber terrified him. But what are other options are there. Dylan was beside himself the woman he needed the most Antonia is dead. And Kelly the other woman he needs is no where to be found. Dylan felt so alone.
The other side of the ocean in London England; Kelly Taylor sat in her family room watching Trevor Jacob Taylor (TJ for short) her six year old son play with his race track. Kelly always smiled when she watched him play. He looked so much like his father. So much of Dylan was in him. No one but Jackie her mother knew about TJ and Jackie is sworn to secretly. Jackie is also the only one who knows where they live. Kelly could not chance anyone knowing about TJ.
Dylan went to pick up Amber at Donna and David's. Dylan knocked on the door. He had a very haggard look on his face. Donna answered the door.
"Dylan, are you ok? Donna asked.
"No, where is Amber?" Dylan asked.
"She and David are on the beach building a sandcastle." said Donna.
"Donna, can I talk with you." he asked.
"Of course you can Dylan, anytime." Donna told him.
"I was just at Amber's doctor's office." "Donna, Amber has a rare form of Liver cancer and it is in stage four." Dylan told Donna.
"Oh my god Dylan, I am so sorry to hear that." "I hope you know that David and I and all your friends will help and do anything we can." said Donna.
"I do know that." "The thing is how am, I going to tell Amber?" asked Dylan.
"I wish I had the answer to that." Donna said.
"I am not even sure how much she is going to understand, she is only three." Dylan told her.
"Tell her she is very sick and she is going to need medicine to help her get better." "Tell her the medicine may make her sick but that you are going to be right there with her." "Dylan that is all she will understand right now."
"Tell Amber that all her aunts and uncles will be there for her." Donna told Dylan.
"Donna I need to ask you a favor." "With Antonia gone now, I need Kelly more then ever." "If you know where she is please just tell me." pleaded Dylan.
"Dylan, if I knew where she was I would tell you in a heartbeat." "But I do not know." "I bet I do know who knows where Kelly is and that is Jackie." "Dylan, tell Jackie everything." Donna told him.
David and Amber came in.
"Daddy, Daddy, you are back." yelled Amber as she jumped into Dylan's arms.
"Hey Dylan, how are you doing?" David asked.
David saw the look on Dylan's face and knew something was very wrong. He looked over at Donna and she mouthed to him she would tell him later. David shook his head with understanding.
Dylan hugged Amber tightly.
"Hi munchkin are you having fun with Uncle David?" Dylan asked her.
"Yes, we are building a sandcastle." Amber told him.
"Hey would like to stay here with Aunt Donna and Uncle David for a little while longer?" "Daddy needs to do a few more things." Dylan said.
"Only if it is ok with you guys?" asked Dylan.
The both said. "Yes," in unison.
Dylan left and went strait to Jackie's. He knocked on the door. Jackie answered the door and was shocked to see who it was.
"Dylan?" Jackie asked quizzically.
Jackie looked at him and she knew something was wrong. Dylan and Jackie went to sit down.
"Come in is everything alright Dylan?" asked Jackie.
"No Jackie it's not." "I just found out that Amber has Liver cancer and it is in stage four." Dylan told Jackie.
"My god no Dylan not Amber she is so young!" Jackie stated.
"I know I can barely breathe right now." "There are so many things running through my mind." Dylan said.
"Jackie I need a favor." "With Antonia gone I can't do this by myself." "Please tell me where Kelly is?" Dylan asked.
"I need her right now." "Kelly always said she would be there for me when I needed her." "God knows I need her now"
"Antonia always understood my special connection to Kelly in fact when Kelly left she was very up set." Dylan said.
"Jackie I am begging you please tell where Kelly is." pleaded Dylan.
Jackie saw that desperate look in Dylan's eyes. Her heart was breaking for him and Amber. Jackie knew she should not tell him but she felt she really had no choice. Jackie went and got a piece of paper and wrote Kelly's phone number on it. She told Dylan that she is in London but nothing about TJ. Jackie told Dylan to tell Kelly everything.
Dylan went home then and sat and looked at the number for a long. Dylan picked up the phone and dialed the number.
