I only own the Original Characters and the plot

Alexis sat in the sit next to her father, as e drove not knowing what to talk about, she bit her lip little and sighed a bit.

John was the same, he had no idea what to talk about, but he on the other hand, was going to break the awkward quietness. "So you like sports?" John asked taking his eyes off the road for a second and looked at her.

She snapped out of her lala land and looked at him. "Yeah, I love watching all sports and I play Tennis and Basketball. Mom said I got my love of sports from you."

That made John smile. "I do love sports, always have. If you don't mind I would love to come to your games." He said looking at the road.

"Really? You really want to come" She asked sounding shocked.

John nodded. "Yeah, why not, I am your father."

She sighed. "Oh I get it, you feel you have to be there, not because you want to." She said looking down.

"What? How do you get that?" He asked not meaning it like that. "I want to come, because I thought it would be fun."

She looked up. "Oh sorry, I took it has you felt you had to come, which you don't I understand you have work and all."

John nodded. "I do, but I'll try to make it too all the games I can, and if I can't get someone to record it for me."

She smiled. "Ok."

"Now why don't you ask a question and we can go back and front and get to know each other."

"All right, do you have a girlfriend?" She asked.

"Well you get right to it." He smiled. "No I don't. I hate to ask, but do you have a boyfriend?"

"No I don't and why were you scared to ask?"

"Because honey I don't want to have to hurt some boy that's why."

Alexis laughed. "Da…..John it's not like I'm too young to have a boyfriend." She said almost calling him dad, which made him smile.

"How old are you?" He asked.

"Fourteen." She said.

"That's too young for a boyfriend." He said.

"What?" Alexis asked.

"Sixteen is the dating age in my house." He said.

"Yes, sir." She said.

He looked at her. "Please don't call me sir."

She looked at him. "Sorry, but momma always taught me to call people sir and Ma'am."

He nodded. "That's a good thing, manners are important."

She nodded.

He smiled. "So it's your turn for a question."

"Ummm what's your favorite basketball team?"

"Lankers without a doubt."

She nodded.

"Um favorite colors?" He asked.

"Pink, blue and Purple." She said. "What's yours?"

He nodded. "I like blue the best, but I like all colors."

She smiled and nodded.

After they asked some more small question and kept driving Alexis had fell asleep and John smiled glancing at her from time to time, and when he stopped to get gas he covered her up with a blanket and went to get drinks and snacks. Alexis woke up hearing people outside the car and looked around rubbing her eyes. John climbed into the car and looked at her. "Hey little miss sleepy."

She smiled "Hey." She said stretching.

"I got some snacks and drinks. I didn't know what you liked so I got a bunch of things."

She nodded.

He handed her the bag. "I know you have to be hungry. We'll stop for some real food in a bit; this small town doesn't have much."

Alexis smiled. "Kay." She started looking and pulled out some chips and a coke and handed the bag back to him. He smiled and got what he wanted and started driving again.

After a bit they stopped and got some real food, then started driving once again, finally getting to the hospital Alexis' mom was at John went in with her and watched as she walked into her mom's room and smiled. "Hey momma."

"Hey baby. Did you meet him?" Asked Kiara,

John stepped. "Yes she did."

Kiara looked at John. "Please I can explain."

John nodded sitting down by her bed and looked at her.

"John I knew you wanted a career and baby would have ruined that."

"No, having you and her would have made it all with wild. Kiara I loved you and I would have, and still do anything for you."

After he had finished, both girls had tears rolling down their faces. "John all I want now is for you and our daughter to get along and build a father/daughter relationship."

John took her hand. "I promise to be the best father to her I know how, I'll protect her, I'll love her, and help her with any and everything. I will not let you down, Kiara." He said.

Kiara smiled and nodded. "Thank you John, now Alexis." She said taking Alexis' hand.

Alexis looked up. "Yes Momma?"

"I want you to listen to your father and obey him, no matter what; I want you to be the best girl you know how and never forget I love with everything I got." Kiara said

Alexis wiped her eyes with her free hand and nodded. "I will momma and I know. I love you with all my heart too."

John watched them feeling his eyes tear up a bit too, but sucked it up, and looked down.

After a while all three of them fell asleep, but what was going to happen next no one know. As the machine flat lined John and Alexis jumped up and looked scared as the doctors ran in they told John to get Alexis out of the room, John ran over to Alexis and picked her up rushing her out, as she screamed 'NO!" She tried to fight him which he won't allow and pulled her out in the waiting room sat down and pulled her on his lap holding her close. "I got you baby." He whispered into her head. "It's going to be ok Angel Face." He said.

She pulled back a bit with a tear stained face. "Wh…What did you call me?" She asked with a shaken voice.

"Angel face." He said. "What's wrong with that name? I think it fits." He said and kissed her cheek then wiped her face with his thumb.

The doctors came out and sighed. "I'm sorry Miss McCone we tried everything."

Alexis broke down and started sobbing into John neck who was rocking her and rubbing her back. "Let it all out Baby girl." After about 30 minutes for non-stop crying she had fell asleep, so Jon slowly got up and carried her to the car and drove to the Hotel and took her to the room her had booked for them and laid her in his bed and changed then go in and pulled her close so she would feel comforted, and fell asleep with his little girl in his arms.
