Chapter 10: Joanna's Secret

"Are you the woman who hired Detective Collins?" Logan asked. Claire looked at him confused.

"No Detective Mitchell," she said.

"He told me his name was Detective Collins," Logan said, "tall guy, dark hair, and- wait did you say Mitchell?" he asked looking at Claire in shock. He wanted to make sure he had heard her correctly. Did she really say Mitchell? There was no way it was his dad. Joanna had told him, that he had died. Then again he did have a Texan accent and Logan was born in Texas. There was no way that he was his father. Joanna had told him he was dead. Then again now that Logan thought about it he did look like him. Their similarities were numerous now that he thought about it. Logan then remembered what Joanna had told him last year. She had told him that she had had Logan right out of high school. She had told Logan a long time ago that his father was a doctor, but if she had had Logan right out of high school the there was no way he had been a doctor. Joanna had lied.

"I wasn't supposed to say that," Claire said looking away from Logan.

"What's his first name," Logan asked.

"Wait," Camille said cutting in. "You're claiming to be my mother but she died shortly after I was born," she said.

"I am your birth mother," Claire said ignoring Logan for the moment. "I gave you to your father after you were born and his wife, Gina, adopted you," she said.

"Your lying," Camille said shaking her head.

"What is his first name?" Logan asked again. He didn't care right now that this woman was claiming to be Camille's mom. She could be claiming to be the queen of England right now, but he didn't care. He cared about the detective and who he really was.

"Claire," a deep voice behind them said. Logan recognized that voice. He turned around to see the detective walking their way. "Ryder called me and told me you'd be here," he said.

"Who are you?" Logan asked.

"I already told you," he said.

"She said something else," Logan said pointing at Claire. "I want the truth and I want it now," he said. He was almost scared of the answer he was going to get.

"I already told you," the detective insisted.

"I am not dumb," Logan said annoyed.

"Fine," the detective said, "My name is David Mitchell," he said. Logan's eyes grew wide. He had kind of been expecting it, but it was another thing to actually be told. Logan didn't know what to think.

"What are you doing here?" Logan asked, "Mom told me you were dead," he said slowly. He didn't know what to think. This was a shock.

"Maybe we should take this inside," Camille suggested.

"I agree," Claire said. Camille, Claire, and David all walked inside. Logan just stood there. He didn't know what to think. David had been alive all this time. He just could not understand why Joanna had lied to him like that.

"Logan," James said bringing him from his thoughts. Logan pokes up at James who was on the porch. Logan walked up to him. "Camille wants to know if you plan on joining her and whoever those other people are," James said.

"Ok, first off the woman is Claire and claiming to be Camille's birth mom and the man is my father. Second I need to think about some things and I'll be in in a minute," Logan said.

"Kay, I'll tell then and I'll be with the twins," James said nodding his head.

"Kay," Logan said as he sat down on the porch swing. He couldn't think of any reason as to why Joanna had lied to him like that. Just the thought of her lying angered him. He had always wanted to know his father. He thought he'd never get the chance since Joanna didn't like talking about him. Now he knew why. It all made sense as to why she didn't talk about him.

Logan looked up as Joanna's car pulled into the driveway next to his car. Logan crossed his arms and couldn't help but send her a small glare. Joanna looked up at him as she got out of her car.

"Logan," she said smiling.

"Mom," Logan said somewhat bitterly.

"Is something wrong," Joanna asked.

"There is someone here to see you," Logan said, "he's in the living room," he said jerking his thumb over his shoulder in the direction of the living room. Joanna walked up the porch and looked at Logan. She walked past him and inside. Logan followed her.

Joanna walked down the hall and stopped when she walked into the living room. She froze.

"What are you doing here?" she asked.

"Funny I asked him the same thing," Logan said. He has stopped just behind Joanna. "What's the matter mom you look like you've just seen a ghost," he asked. Joanna turned to look at Logan.

"David we had an agreement," Joanna said to David ignoring Logan for the moment. "We agree it was best for you to not to be a part of his life after you ran off with that man," Joanna said.

"Joanna I know we had an agreement," David said.

"So, why are you here then?" Joanna asked.

"I was hired to find Camille for Claire," David said, "she's the one who gave me away and besides he's a smart kid," he said looking over at Logan.

"Who," Joanna's asked confused. It was then she noticed Claire sitting on the couch next to David and Camille sitting in the arm chair.

"Mom, this is my birth mon Claire apparently," Camille said.

"What?" Joanna asked shocked.

"I was just as shocked as you," Camille said.

"So mom is there a reason you lied to me because I can't come up with a reason," Logan said getting Joanna's attention. Joanna turned to look at Logan.

"Logan, you were two and your father ran off with some man and I didn't know what to tell you," Joanna said, "Your father and I had both agreed to cut all ties," she said.

"So you move from Texas and tell me he died?" Logan asked.

"You were four when you first asked me what was I supposed to say," Joanna asked.

"You could try the truth," Logan said, "I've been told my whole life that he died and now I find out he's alive," he said. This was a lot to take in. Logan had thought he was dead for most of his life and all in less than an hour everything has been turned upside down. "Did you lie because you didn't want me to turn out gay like dad? I mean the apple doesn't fall far from the tree now does it," he said.

"No," Joanna said, "That thought never crossed my mind. I lied because he had might as well be dead since he didn't want anything to so with you and me," she said.

"I can't believe you lied to me," Logan said shaking his head. He turned and walked from the room. He needed to leave this place. He couldn't be here right now. He just wanted to get out of here and away from Joanna.

"Where are you going?" Joanna asked.

"Out," Logan said.

"Logan," Joanna said.

"I can't be here right now," Logan said as he walked out the door. He walked down to his car and got in as Joanna opened the door. Logan pulled out of the driveway and he just drove.

He just needed to get away from there right now. He could not believe Joanna had lied to him. He didn't know what to think anymore. If she had lied about that what else had she lied about. Logan didn't want to think about that. He shook his head and noticed he was driving to the Knight's residence. He pulled up to the curb and noticed Kendall's car was the only one there meaning Jennifer was still at work. Logan got out of his car and ran up to the door and knocked. Logan hoped Kendall was the one to answer the door. The door opened and Kendall stood there.

"Logan," he said shocked.

"Can I come in?" Logan asked.

"Yeah," Kendall said stepping aside. Logan walked in and turned to Kendall. "Is everything ok?" Kendall asked.

"No," Logan said shaking his head. "My mom lied to me," he said.

"About what?" Kendall asked placing a hand on Logan's arm.

"My dad is alive," Logan said tears of anger in his eyes. Kendall moved to stand next to Logan. He placed a hand on Logan's cheek. "She lied to me for almost sixteen years," he said. Kendall pulled Logan into a hug.

"I'm sure she had a good reason," Kendall said as he rubbed Logan's back.

"I don't want to talk about it," Logan said.

"We don't have to," Kendall said pulling back from Logan to look him in the eyes. "Come on let's go up to my room," he said grabbing Logan's hand and pulling him up the stairs. Logan let Kendall lead him to his room.

"I don't know why I came here," Logan admitted, "I just needed to get away," he said.

"Just call me Mr. Distraction," Kendall said laughing as he closed his bedroom door. Logan walked over to Kendall's bed and sat down.

"Thanks Ken really," Logan said, "you are so great," he said.

"Thanks I try," Kendall said smiling. Logan laughed and held his hand out to Kendall. Kendall walked over to him and sat down next to him. "We don't have to talk Logan," he said.

"I know, but the last half hour has been so crazy," he said.

"I'll bet," Kendall said as he moved to lay down pulling Logan with him. Logan curled into Kendall's side.

"Remember that detective that was watching Camille?" Logan asked.

"Yeah," Kendall said.

"Well her birth mom showed up at our house and while Camille and I were talking to her she let it slip that the detective's last name was Mitchell," Logan said.

"Wait that detective was your father?" Kendall asked.

"Yes," Logan said, "not only that but he showed up at my house and is probably still there arguing with my mom," he said, "I left though," he said.

"Does your mom know where you are?" Kendall asked. Logan shook his head and as if on cue his cell phone rang. Logan sat up and pulled it out of his pocket. He looked at the caller ID. It read Camille. Logan hit the ignore button and turned his phone off before setting it on Kendall's bedside table.

"I need to clear me head," Logan said. Kendall nodded and pulled Logan back down next to him. Logan took a deep breath and relaxed next to Kendall. Logan just felt so relaxed next to Kendall. He closed his eyes and let sleep over take him.

Joanna paced back and forth in her room. She had talked to David and Claire. Claire had no intention of taking Camille from her. She was glad for that. Claire just wanted a chance finger to know Camille. Joanna would leave that decision to Camille. She was almost eighteen after all. David on the other hand now wanted to be a part of Logan's life. Joanna wasn't sure if that was a good idea. Logan was almost eighteen as well and ultimately it would be his decision to make as well.

Joanna wished Logan would come home. She was sure he had gone to see Kendall. That seemed to be where he went when he was upset. Logan had gone there several times when he was upset over the last year. She knew by now that was where he went. She had tried calling him a few times, but she got no answer. She wished he would answer his phone.

"Joanna if you're sure he's there call Jennifer," Jack said as he walked into their bedroom.

"I never thought he'd find out like this," Joanna said as she turned to Jack.

"Well he did, and now you know he's gonna want to get to know him," Jack said.

"I can't believe David did that though," Joanna said.

"Joanna, I know why you lied, but Logan won't see it like you did," Jack said walking over to his wife.

"I know," Joanna said, "He was pissed when I got home and he left without telling me where he was going," she said.

"Call Jen I am sure he's there with Kendall," Jack said grabbing the phone from beside their bed. Joanna nodded and grabbed the phone from Jack as the twins started crying. "I got it," Jack said walking from the room.

Camille paced back and forth in her room. She had her phone pressed to her ear. She was trying to call Logan again.

"Logan call me when you get this," she said. She hung up and tossed her phone onto her bed.

"He probably turned his phone off," James said from the doorway.

"Do you blame him," Camille asked.

"Not really," James said, "but what about you?" he asked.

"I don't know," Camille said, "I mean I guess they did it because Claire had given me up completely," she said as she sat down on her bed. Claire had told her she would at least like to get to know her. It was Camille's decision though.

"What are you gonna do?" James asked.

"I don't know," Camille said honestly, "I mean it won't hurt to get to know her at least and learn where I come from," she said. James nodded his head.

"That's true," he said, "and don't worry about Logan he'll come home," he said.

"Soon I hope," Camille said. James nodded his head and left. Camille couldn't help but think about Claire. She had never given her mother much thought. All she knew was Harvey and Joanna and then here was Jack. Camille was curious about Claire. She wanted to know more about her dad before he met Joanna. She was sure Claire would be able to tell her more about him. She sighed as she looked at her phone beside her. She was worried about Logan. She knew he was probably with Kendall, but then again she could never really be sure anymore. Logan was like a complete stranger. At times she felt like she didn't even know who he was.

Logan woke with a start. He looked around. He was alone in Kendall's room. He heard Kendall and Jennifer talking in the hall.

"Mom he was pretty upset when he got here and I managed to calm him down," Kendall said.

"Kendall, Joanna just called and she's worried," Jennifer said.

"Well he's in there sleeping," Kendall said, "He's really upset that Joanna lied to him. I think it's best he stay here tonight," he said.

"Kendall I think he should go home," Jennifer said.

"Than you can go in there and deal with him, but he's exhausted," Kendall said. Logan felt a surge of love for Kendall upon hearing him defend him.

"Fine he can stay the night, but he has to go home tomorrow," Jennifer said, "he needs to talk to his mother," she said.

"I know and he will," Kendall said. Logan smiled as he turned away from the door. He was glad they were letting him stay here. He heard Jennifer and Kendall exchange good nights. Logan heard the door open and close and the light flipped on. He heard Kendall moving about. He rolled over and saw Kendall undressing.

"Thank you," Logan said scaring him. Kendall turned around and loomed at Logan. A small smile spread across his lips.

"You heard me and my mom talking didn't you?" Kendall asked as he grabbed his pajamas. Logan nodded and sat up.

"Do you have a pair of pj's I can borrow?" Logan asked standing up. Kendall nodded and grabbed a pair for Logan and tossed then to him. Logan laughed and changed. He joined Kendall in his bed again.

"Good night Logie," Kendall said as he spooned Logan from behind.

"Night Ken," Logan said. Logan smiled as Kendall place his arm around Logan and pulled him close. Logan was glad Kendall was here for him when he needed him.

Logan woke the next morning with Kendall's arms around him. Logan smiled and closed his eyes again. He was just glad to be in Kendall's arm. He almost forgot everything that had happened yesterday. He didn't want to deal with what had happened, but he had to. He felt Kendall moved behind him and then he felt a pair of lips on his neck. Logan smiled and turned in Kendall's embrace.

"Morning Kenny," Logan said smiling.

"Morning Logie," Kendall said. He leaned in and gave Logan a peck on the lips. "We should get up," he said.

"But I don't wanna," Logan said pouting, "It's so warm here," he said snuggling closer to Kendall. Kendall laughed and pushed the blanket off him and Logan.

"Logan you have to go home," Kendall said.

"I know," Logan sighed. He tossed the blanket aside and stood up and stretched. "Borrow me some clothes," he said looking over at Kendall.

"Go ahead," Kendall said. The two changed and Logan grabbed his phone and turned it on. His phone went crazy with missed calls and texts. He had several missed calls from Joanna, Camille, James, and Jack. He sighed he should've known better.

"Come on let's get some breakfast and you can go home," Kendall said.

"You go I need to check my messages," Logan said. Kendall nodded and went down stairs. Logan checked his many voicemails. Most were from Joanna and Camille. Camille was worried about him and Joanna was mad and wanted him to come home. Logan knew he was going to be in big trouble. Logan sighed and decided to call James and figure out how much trouble he was in. He dialed James' number and pressed his phone to his ear.

"Hello? Logan?" James answered.

"Yes, it's me I just woke up," Logan said, "I wanted to call and figure out how much trouble I'm in," he said.

"I don't know," James said, "Your mom is pretty upset," he said.

"Do you think she's gonna ground me?" Logan asked as he sat down on Kendall's bed.

"It's a possibility," James said.

"Ok, I'll be home soon," Logan said, "Kendall's making breakfast and I'll be on my way," Logan said.

"Ok see you when you get here," James said.

"Yeah," Logan said and he hung up. He sighed and made his way down to the kitchen where Kendall was cooking some eggs.

"My mom had to go into the office today for some clients and Katie is still sleeping," Kendall said. Logan nodded and jumped up on the counter next to Kendall.

"I just talked to James," Logan said, "I know my mom is upset and she may ground me so this may be the only time we see each other this weekend," he said.

"I know," Kendall said looking over at Logan.

"Look I am sorry about yesterday," Logan said, "I was upset and I didn't know anywhere else to go," he said.

"Whenever you're upset you can come here," Kendall said, "I'm glad you do because then we can tell your mom you're safe," he said. Logan nodded and looked down at the floor.

"There was probably a better way to handle that situation," he said.

"Probably, but at least you're calm now and can go talk to your mom," he said.

"I don't know," Logan said.

"Let's eat and we can work out what to do next afterwards," Kendall said dishing the eggs onto two plates with toast. They each grabbed a plate and moved over to the table to eat. Once they finished Kendall put the plates and turned to Logan.

"I don't want to go home yet," Logan said.

"Logan you have to go home," Kendall said. Logan shook his head.

"I don't know if I can face her calmly," Logan said honestly. He knew he'd get mad if he saw Joanna. He would remember the whole reason he ran.

"If there has to be yelling then yell and get it out," Kendall said as he pulled Logan to his feet. Katie walked into the kitchen with Sammy at her heels. "Katie I am taking Logan home," Kendall said as he dragged the small brunette out of the kitchen.

"Kay, I'll be here," Katie called back to him.

"Kendall I don't want to," Logan said.

"You have to," Kendall said as he fished Logan's keys out of his pocket and pulled Logan out to his car. He pushed Logan into the passenger's seat and moved over to the drivers seat. He started driving and Logan sent a glare his way. "I'm sorry but you have to talk to your mom and figure things out," Kendall said.

"I guess you're right," Logan sighed.

"Of course I'm right," Kendall teased.
