Now, enjoy! ;D

Then,

"He is mine." Neal muttered, commenting on what Sarah told him; who nodded as she felt a tear roll down her cheek.

"Yes, Dean is your son."

...

Now,

"So, I have a son. We have a son." Neal stated, getting up from his seat letting go of Sarah's hand. She stared at him silently. "We have a son." He repeated, his tone rising, causing Sarah to snap in her seat, tears forming in her eyes again.

"I believe that's what I just told you, Neal." Sarah said calmly, a tear escaping her eye, rolling down her cheek.

"Yeah Sarah, thanks, really." Neal said sarcastically. "Thanks for telling me, after seven years." He shouted angrily at her.

Sarah wasn't in her normal state, she wouldn't have let Neal yell at her and just stare at him silently, while her tears running down her cheeks. She thought she deserve it, every bit of Neal's anger towards her, she denied him one of his rights, to be a father, to see his son growing up in front of him, to even know that he had a son. And even though she did this for the best, to keep all of them safe, she knew that day was coming, knowing that she had to face the consciences of the choices she made.

"Are you done yelling? Or there is more?" Sarah asked, in a tone she meant to be angry, but her voice let her down, coming out shaky and sad.

"I don't know Sarah. Do you have any more surprises for me?" Neal said with the same sarcastic tone, "Other kids maybe?" He mocked her.

"You're the one who wanted to know," She snapped, having enough of his sarcasm.

"Are you kidding me?" Neal yelled again.

"Neal! I meant to tell you," She yelled back at him. "You're the one who left me," Sarah said with a sob, cupping her face in her hands as she started to cry harder.

Neal sighed glancing down at her, seeing how Sarah was heartbroken and shaken; he shook his head sitting down next to her. He put a hand on her knee trying to clam her down, but she moved away from his touch. "I'm sorry; I didn't mean to talk to you like this." Neal said softly, in a calmer tone.

"Doesn't matter, I deserved it." Sarah said wiping her tears. "I knew about the baby that day, the day you broke up with me." She told Neal. "I felt sick for days, so I went to run a few tests to make sure I was alright. And when I went back for the results, the doctor told me I was pregnant. I was confused," she sighed looking into Neal's eyes. "I didn't know if was supposed to be happy or to freak out, so I decided to wait till I tell you."

"But you didn't." Neal told her bitterly.

"I didn't have anytime to," She said, her tone rising. "When I came home that day, I saw that you were in a bad mood and, and I didn't want to break such a news for you when you were like that, especially when I didn't even know how you will react."

"So, you started to joke and flirt." Neal said with a sad smile. Making Sarah look at him surprised.

"You remember?" She exclaimed. Neal gave her another smile, nodding.

"Of course, worst day of my life, I had to leave you." He told her. "And Sarah, there is something you need to know." Neal said letting out a sigh. "I didn't have a choice, I had to leave, your father made me go, he threat me, and,"

"I know." Sarah cut him off.

"Excuse me?" Neal exclaimed, looking confused. "You knew your dad made me leave you?" He asked again.

"Yes, I knew a while after you left." Sarah said, waving with her hand to calm Neal down seeing how angry he looked. "I will tell you everything Neal; I swear I won't hide anything anymore. Seven years living in secret are enough for me."

...

"I wanted to tell you that day about the baby," Sarah started, "But as I said, you seemed off, and I didn't want to say anything to make things worse, after all, I wasn't sure you were going to like the news I was going to break to you." She said with a sad smile. "Anyway, when I came back and saw you like this, I started to flirt and you know the rest," She said sharing a smile with Neal.

"Yeah, I remember." He said. "We ended up in bed, it was the last time I touched you," Neal sighed. Sarah nodded.

"Yeah," She sighed. "And, I was about to tell you about Dean, but," Sarah paused looking Neal dead in the eye.

"But I broke up with you." He finished her sentence.

"Yeah, and things couldn't get worse." Sarah said. "I didn't know what I should do, I thought about losing the baby, but I couldn't do it. I hated you like I never hated anyone before Neal, you left me alone after all I did for you, and I was carrying your child too. And from what you told me, you left me for another woman, you could imagine the state I was in at the time."

"Kate was only a friend then, I swear." Neal said fast, defending himself.

"I didn't know this, I had all the reasons in the world to hate you, and I did." Sarah admitted. "But I decided to keep the baby, taking it as a new chance, I didn't know, it was a hell of a chance," she laughed. "I was young; I didn't even know how to take care of myself, not a kid. And, to be honest, I didn't want my baby to go through what I did." She sighed.

"Or to have a father like me," Neal said looking the other way.

"Or a mother like me. We aren't that different Neal, you know better." Sarah said honestly. "But the worst was to have a grandfather like my father." She said. "So, I had to leave."

"I bet that didn't go well." Neal said sarcastically, making Sarah laugh shaking her head.

"Exactly, and you are right, it didn't go well, not even near." She said. "I went to my dad and told him I wanted to leave, that I will leave and I don't need anything from him at all. Just to walk away, he shouldn't look for me or try to bring me back." Sarah looked down remembering what happened. "He hit me, he slapped me so hard that I fell on the floor, busting my lip, I could taste my blood Neal." She said starting to tear up again.

"I'm so sorry." Neal said holding her hands, giving her a reassuring squeeze, seeing that she was about to cry, again. Sarah shook her head, wiping the tears.

"That was the only thing he didn't do." She said. "He mad me work with him, do everything he asks, even be with the guy he picks for me, I did all that and never questioned him. Taking orders, never having a choice, and he finally hit me. That was when I swore I was leaving this place, and never look back, even if I leaved it a corpse. I was getting out." Sarah said, feeling Neal's hand holding hers tighter.

"And you did leave." He smiled at her, trying to make her feel better, that she did the one thing she wanted the most.

"Yes, I did." She nodded. "But not before he told me the truth, he wanted to make me feel even worse, or he was too angry that he couldn't keep it, anyway he told me." Sarah paused biting her bottom lip. "He said I made him leave so you'd stay." Sarah told Neal. "He told me he forced you to leave so I'd hate you and stay, I didn't really listen to any of what he said after, I got up and left," She smiled sadly. "That was the last time I saw my dad, and I'm so damn proud of myself for that."

"You should be so damn proud of yourself. You been through a lot, and look at you now!" Neal said smiling at her. Sarah nodded.

"Yeah," She smiled feeling his arms getting wrapped around her. Sarah was grateful to this gesture; she needed nothing more than a hug at the moment. "But I was broke, with no plans, and a baby growing inside of me. Life then was peachy." She chuckled.

"Your dad didn't know about Dean, right?" Neal asked sounding worried. Sarah shook her head, still resting it on Neal's chest.

"I didn't tell him anything then, I knew better." Sarah told him. "But I don't know. You know he was probably keeping an eye on me, but honestly, I don't know."

"I understand." Neal laughed. "What happened after you left?" He asked.

"I disappeared. I left Illinois, and kept it on the hush," she answered. "I tried to save money for a hospital, and try to live with the rest. Getting a job anywhere I could, and I knew that being spoiled was terrible, the real world, it almost crushed me." Sarah said pulling back from Neal. "So, I did what I do best," she said with a hint of a smirk.

"I can relate to that." He teased. "You went back to the street. Working small jobs, to get enough money, but always stay safe." Neal said as Sarah nodded in confirmation. He looked into her eyes with a question in his. He hesitated wither he should ask her or not, but finally he decided to ask anyway. "Didn't you try to find me?"

Sarah's smile faded. "I did." She said, "But there was no more Neal Caffrey, you disappeared, Neal. I knew then you probably changed your name, even left the country. I didn't want to get heartbroken again, so," She paused sighing. "To be honest, I didn't look hard; I didn't want you to reject me, knowing everything that happened."

"Sarah," Neal called looking at her. "I had to leave, or you were going to get hurt, or,"

"I know Neal," Sarah said cutting him off.

"If I knew you left," He said bitterly. "I'd have come for you, I swear Sarah."

"Hating you was easier, easier than finding you." Sarah admitted. "I needed to move on, and that was the easy way. Leave it all behind, even you. I realize now that I was only living in denial." She said letting out a sarcastic laugh. Sarah saw how Neal stared at her, realizing what she said. She cleared her throat smiling awkwardly. "And I had to find my mother." She said changing the subject.

"Yeah!" Neal said. Sarah chuckled seeing how he was excited. "I thought you mother was dead, you said he told you that, right?" He asked.

"Yes," Sarah replied. "He told me my mother was dead, but she wasn't, and again, he said that to me before I leave. He was stupid, anger made him stupid, he thought when he tells me all that I will stay or something, but every word he spoke, made me hate him more, determined to leave and never come back."

"How long it took you to find her?" Neal asked. Sarah took a moment to remember, thinking.

"Um, I think, uh," Sarah stuttered. "I don't really remember how many days or months, but it was right before Dean was born." She said still trying to remember. "I worked so hard to find her, and I asked everywhere. Authorities dude, and you know me, I don't do authorities." Sarah laughed. "I worked two jobs, with the small cons, so I'd hire someone to find her, and I did." She smiled. "And Neal, she was so different than my father. I only knew what family means when I met her, and she told me what happened, how dad made her leave when she asked him to get me out of his world, I was a kid and I didn't deserve to live like that. But of course he didn't like it, he treated her bad and even cheated on her, she wanted to sneak us out of the house, and of course he found out and," Sarah paused, sighing. "Kicked her out, and told her if he saw her in the same state, he will kill her, he even put a bounty on her head in Illinois."

"He is a great man." Neal mocked. "He took everything from you, your mother, having a normal childhood, friends, everything. He took you from me." He hissed, hearing what Sarah's father did to her. Neal couldn't help but thinking that he should have fought for Sarah harder, knowing now that he didn't only miss being with her for years, he lost the chance to see his son, only finding out about him seven years after, by chance. He knew Sarah was right trying to keep Dean safe, but that didn't deny the fact that what John did, made Sarah and Neal lose seven years of their life, chasing things they didn't really need, only trying to stay away from the life they used to have, finding new opportunities to be happy, on their own way. "I will never forgive him for that Sarah, you know how much I loved you, and I swear I only left because of that, I had to make sure you will be alright, and he won't hurt you because of me. But I thought about you every day, wondering how you were doing, but I didn't have the courage to get out there and find you," Neal admitted. "I wanted to, but I couldn't."

"I can relate to that," Sarah said laughing sarcastically. "Well, I made sure no one would find me, I don't blame you Neal, and I blamed you enough." She told him, looking into his blue piercing eyes. "I promise you nothing, Neal. I know nothing about you but a guy who appeared shaking up my life two days ago, after seven years of hating him and almost forgetting he was existed." She sighed. "But all I can say is that I'm done, done with all the hate and anger, you are back in my life and there is nothing I can do with that but to accept it." She finished forcing a smile.

"You're only taking me back in your life because of Dean, right?" Neal asked her, looking hurt. Sarah sighed; she didn't know what to tell him.

"Sort of," she admitted. "I mean we both moved on Neal, the only thing we share now is Dean," Sarah told him, making Neal to look away from her eyes. "You have Kate Neal, even if she isn't there now, she will,"

"Kate is dead, she died Sarah." Neal said cutting Sarah's talk.

"Oh my God!" She exclaimed, her eyes widened, "I didn't know that Neal, I swear, I-I'm sorry, so sorry."

"It's not your fault." Neal told her softly, sounding sad. Sarah hurried to give him a comforting hug.

"I know," She said feeling his arms wrapping around her, hugging back. "But I hated her for so long, now, everything is just gone. I'm really sorry Neal." Sarah said sincerely.

"Thank you." Neal said pulling back from the hug; a fading smile was circling his lips. "So many miracles happened today." He told Sarah, she frowned looking confused, but seeing Neal's smile widening she rolled her eyes.

"That was a serious moment, Neal." She said shaking her head. "But fine, I will change the topic."

Neal was about to answer her, but something clicked in his mind. "Sarah," He called making her look at him questioning. "How did you even know that Kate was missing, you know, that she left?" He asked. Sarah told him that she didn't know where he was and she couldn't reach him, so, how did she know about Kate.

"I hate your brain." Sarah huffed. "Well, not because I didn't find you, means I didn't know a few things once and a while, Neal. I don't share the same line of work with you, but I still have my friends, mutual friends." She explained. "Don't get me wrong, and at the point, I heard by chance, I was at a friend, who apparently knew you, heard him talking."

"But you didn't try to find me." Neal told her, this time with a glare.

"Neal, we just discussed that." Sarah said rolling her eyes. "I didn't want to; you played Michael Scofield and broke out of jail. I couldn't get my hands dirty." She said honestly. "Not with a baby in my arms. Plus, you were out for a reason Neal,"

Neal frowned seeing the look she gave him, and the tone she talked with. "What that's supposed to mean, Sarah?" He asked looking her in the eye.

"Mean that you broke from jail for Kate," Sarah said bitterly. "While you didn't," she paused taking a deep breath, trying to push the tears away. "While you didn't do half of that when you were supposed to, you just left."

"And that was the reason I couldn't lose Kate, too." Neal told her, "I lost you, and it was too late to come back, I didn't even find the way to get you back. And I couldn't handle losing Kate too, I loved her Sarah, but with everything I did, she is gone." He said closing his eyes, taking a deep breath.

Sarah's hand reached slowly patting on his knee. She felt bad for him, she could feel how brokenhearted he was, and she knew she was part of why he became like this, meant it or not. She had to face the fact that she was one of the reasons Neal was wrecked now. But the thing Sarah couldn't shake off her mind, the word that stabbed her heart, when she heard Neal saying he loved Kate. But she knew that it wasn't the time for any of those feelings to come up to the surface, she knew that her and Neal as a couple was hard if not impossible to happen. So, Sarah tried to hide everything she felt at the moment, focusing on only one thing, the only thing that could make her forget thinking about herself, someone for her was more important. Her son.

"I think we should go back to Dean," Sarah smiled. "He might freak out when he wakes up and not find me there. Mama's boy." She joked, standing up off the seat. Neal smiled at her, as he stood up as well.

"My poor son," Neal said, pausing looking at Sarah, who was looking at him smiling.

"I never thought I'd hear that word coming out of your mouth." She said shaking her head, still smiling.

"Me too." Neal laughed, putting his hands on Sarah's waist, walking with her back to the hospital. "We better go back to Dean, or your blond boyfriend can handle being around kids?" He teased.

"Chris isn't my boyfriend." Sarah corrected. "And actually, he is friends with Deano, he won't freak out if he sees him, it might even calm him down." She told Neal, feeling his grip tightening on her waist.

"Great." Neal said. Sarah could feel his annoyance. He couldn't help the jealousy that was building inside of him towards Chris, not only he was the closest thing to be Sarah's boyfriend, but he had a better relationship with his son.

"Neal, chill." Sarah said giving him a smile; she could feel how tense he was. "Soon enough, you and Dean will be buddies; he is so easy just give him a big piece of chocolate or get him a new video-game." She told him, trying to make him feel better.

Neal took a deep breath, smiling back at her. "Its gonna be a long way to go." He sighed.

"Yeah," Sarah agreed. "But I'll be here with you, the whole way." She said pressing herself to Neal's body, hugging him a little. He wrapped his arms around her as the two of them walked back into the hospital.

Once Sarah and Neal walked into the hospital, the man who was watching them vanished, like he wasn't standing there watching them, from the beginning.

...

"That can't be good." Sarah muttered to herself, forcing a smile at Samuel.

"If I didn't know any better, I'd have said you're ignoring me Sarah!" He said with a sick smile on his face. Even though it was almost a year now since she broke up with him, he didn't get over her. And being one of the men her father depended on wasn't helping, and Sarah couldn't ignore the fact that he was always there, at work or at their house.

"Well, I was counting on it Sam. Thought when I ignore you, you will have some dignity and won't follow me!" Sarah huffed taking a step away from him. But he grabbed her arm harshly leaning down that his face too close to hers.

"Sarah, you know Neal is not the right man for you, I'm." He snarled pressing her harder against him. "And sooner or later, you'll be mine again, I promise."

"Screw you!" Sarah snapped pushing him away from her, taking her arm back. "Touch one more time Sam, and you'll lose a hand, I promise." She threatened angrily, walking away from him.

"You'll get back to me sooner or later Sarah, I'll make sure of that, even if took me years." Samuel muttered to himself watching her walking away from him.

Chapter 6, What Had to Be Done.

...

"Come on in." Samuel called, allowing the secretary to enter the office.

"Sir, James," she started but she was cut off with a wave Samuel gave her.

"Let him in." He ordered knowing exactly who she was talking about.

The young woman nodded before walking out of the office, a minute later, a man entered. Samuel looked at him waiting for him to talk.

"What? You gonna stare at me the whole day?" Samuel growled, glaring at the man. "That's not what I pay you to do, James."

"No sir." James started, he was nervous. "But the news I've aren't," he paused seeing the glare Samuel was giving him.

"Sit down, and talk straight." Samuel ordered.

James took a deep breath and sat down in front of Samuel's desk, he swallowed hard. "I followed Sarah as you asked me. Her son got injured and she went to see him in the hospital, but she wasn't alone." James informed.

"Her mother was with her?" Samuel asked.

"No," James shook his head, he hesitated wither he should say or not. "Caffrey."

"What?" Samuel snapped angrily standing up. James automatically stood up.

"Sir, I'm only telling you what I saw." He said. "Neal – as I informed you earlier showed up at Sarah's office, and then today, she went to the FBI, she didn't stay long as she hurried to the hospital to see her son. That was when Neal came with her, that man Chris also showed up later, but,"

"Fine, fine," Samuel said walking around his desk. "You write all that in a report, remember the boss will see it." He told James, who couldn't look more intimidated than he looked at the moment, hearing the word 'boss', knowing he better do exactly what he was told.

"Yes sir." James said nervously. "Excuse me." He said before hurrying to the door.

Samuel sat back on his desk, staring at the photo he keeps hidden in there, a photo of Sarah and him, which was taken years ago when they were still a couple. He ran his finger over Sarah's smiling face in the photo. "I promised, I'll get you back Sarah, you are mine." He talked to the photo. "And only mine, and will be mine forever."
