" I'm glad that you never forgot about me and that you could never be mad at me" Alli said," But I haven't exactly told Dylan that you are his father. Or that my ex-husband isn't his father."

"And when you say not exactly, you mean?" Johnny asked.

"I mean not at all." Alli replied.

"Oh my God, Alli!'" Johnny exclaimed, ''Is there anything else I need to know?"

"No, Johnny."Alli responded," There's nothing else. And I promise that I am going home right now to tell Dylan the truth."

"Ok."Johnny said," Then I guess that I will talk to you later."

"Bye." Alli said and then she walked out the door and headed towards home to tell her son about his real father.

At Alli's house...

Alli walked into her house and yelled out,"Dylan! Where are you? We need to talk."

"Coming, mom!" Dylan yelled and after a few minutes he bounded down the stairs and into the entryway." What did you need?" He asked.

" I need to talk to you." Alli stated, "So can you come into the living?"

"This sounds serious."Dylan said suspiciously, "Is something wrong?"

"No. Nothings wrong." Alli replied."But this is serious and I need you to sit down so we can talk."

"Ok."Dylan said, "But mom you're starting to freak me out so can you just say what you need to say."

"Fine."Alli said." Dylan, there is no easy way to say this and you may hate me after I tell you, but just remember that I will always be your mother and that I only kept this from you to protect you."

"Ok mom. "Dylan said.," I trust you. So just tell me whatever it is you are keeping from me."

"Well, my ex-husband, your father, was not your real father." Alli stated as she prepared for the hatred from her son to come out.

"I know." Dylan said.

"Wait! What do you mean, you know?"Alli asked in utter shock.

"I mean I know."Dylan said," I mean look at me mom. I may have your eyes, but I have blonde hair and considering the fact that you have black hair and the man you tried to make me believe was my father had dark brown hair, I always kind of assumed that either I was adopted or he wasn't my father."

"How come you never told me that you knew this or that you suspected that you were adopted?"Alli asked.

"I just always assumed that you would eventually get around to telling me and I also assumed that you had a good reason to keep it a secret." Dylan said." So are you going to tell me who he is?"

"Of course I am going to tell you Dylan." Alli said.

"Am I going to get to meet him?"Dylan asked.

"You kind of already have." Alli stated.

"What do you mean I kind of already have?"Dylan asked."Who is he?

"His name is Johnny Dimarco." Alli answered.

"You mean that guy that we met in the supermarket the other day?" Dylan asked shocked." Your old high school boyfriend?"

"Yes. That was him."Alli responded, "And he wasn't just my high school boyfriend. I also got back together with him for a little while when I started college. And that is when I got pregnant with you."

"So what you got pregnant with me and he just decided to up and leave you?" Dylan asked, "Sounds like a great guy."

"That's not how it happened."Alli said," I didn't find out that I was pregnant with you until after he left."

"And after you told him he just went on with his life and never came back? Never tried to see me?"Dylan asked.

"Well, no." Alli said," This is going to make me sound like a horrible person but I never told him that I was pregnant with you."

"What? Why?"Dylan asked.

" I had my reasons." Alli stated," They might not be good reasons but they were reasons that I had."

" Well when did you tell him about me?" Dylan asked," When I was born? When I was five, ten, fifteen?"

" I told him that you were his son today."Alli answered.

"Today?" Dylan asked,"You told him today? You waited eighteen years to tell him that I am his son?"

"Yes." Alli said near tears," And I am sorry for that and I never meant for it to happen like this but I can't change what has happened. I just hope that you won't pack up your things and leave because of this. "

" I'm not going to leave mother." Dylan stated, "Where would I go? I apparently can't go back to your ex-husband because he isn't my father and I can't go stay with my real father because he didn't know that I existed until today. That's really screwed up, you know that?'"

" Of course I know that it is screwed up and I wish I could go back in time and tell him that I was pregnant the minute I found out but I can't."Alli said, "But what I can do is make sure that you meet him and that you get to know him. He is an amazing person."

"How would you even know that he would want to see me?"Dylan asked.

"Because he told me that he did."Alli responded,"He is just as pissed off at me as you are for not telling both of you the truth."

"And he has a right to be and so do I."Dylan stated.,"Look, I don't really want to talk about this anymore right now. I have a lot of thinking to do. But maybe in the next few days you can explain to me your reasons for keeping this a secret, but as for right now can you do me one favor?"

"Anything Dylan." Alli answered," I will do anything just name it."

" Take me to meet him." Dylan said.

"Right now?" Alli asked.

"Yes."Dylan responded" We have a lot of catching up to do."

"OK."Alli said." If that's what you want."

"It is." Dylan said.

"Well then,let's go."Alli said.

And then they headed out the front door on the way to Johnny's house so Dylan could finally meet his real father after eighteen years.
