A/N: Hello again, folks! I hope you'll like this chapter, because it's leading to something very exciting, I believe! ;) Well, that seems to be all I have to say, because I've run out of stuff to say in beginning Author's Notes! So, let's not waste any more time with this one, and let's go! :D

Chapter 28: The Call

Marv's PoV:

I finish the next part of the story to Kevin, who continues to sit across the table, with a disbelieved look on his face. I'm about to tell him more of what happened at the coffee shop, when the phone rings, unexpectedly.

I jump, not only because it startles me, but because I worry that it has something to do with the kid. I look back at the phone, with these thoughts flowing through my mind, back to the kid again, whose eyes are glanced towards the direction of the phone.

"Are you gonna get that?" I just shake my head, not because I'm saying "no", but because I'm not sure if I should.

"Yeah, I'll get it," I've come to this decision, because I have a feeling this phone call won't be as bad as I think it's going to be. I stand up from my chair, stroll over to the phone, and pick it up a few rings in. I answer with the casual, "Hello?" I glance at Kevin, to make sure he stays put.

That's when I hear a voice I haven't heard in a long time, "Hello?" Kevin squints, as if wondering why I'm forming the facial expression I am.

I really don't want to have a conversation with this woman, especially in front of her son, but I don't know what else to do, except ask, "Kate?" Kevin's eyes widen at his Mother's name.

"Marv? Is that you?"

"Uh, yes… Yes, it is,"

"Is… Is Kevin there?" I'm looking up at Kevin this whole time, as his eyes remain widened, pegged at me.

"Umm… Kevin?" He squints again at the sound of his name. I can't control the trembly feeling that's taken over. My stomach is turning knots, and I'm almost beginning to sweat.

"You know, your son? Don't play this game with me, Marv. I'm in no mood,"

"Why would you think Kevin was here?" Kevin gasps, as if he knows what I'm trying to tell Kate.

"I know, Marv. I was told,"

"She told you?!" I immediately begin to worry, because all of our careful planning—Harry's careful planning, for that matter—seems to have gone out the window.

"I know you and Harry are harmless, Marv; especially you. You'd never hurt anyone, especially your son,"

"Why do you keep saying this? I don't have him here,"

I continue to worry that Kate will find out the truth, all the more while, Kevin becomes increasingly scared. He can obviously hear what I'm trying to tell Kate, and he's about to explode.

"Marv! Stop it, would you?! I know you have Kevin there!" I pull the phone away from my ear, because of Kate's screeching voice.

That's when Kevin seems to be on his last nerve, because he rises up from his chair and rushes over to me, calling, "Mom! Mom!"

He begins crying, I believe from what's all happened tonight, and now, he knows his Mother is on the opposite end of the phone. He tries to push me and grab the phone out of my hand, but I do the only abrupt thing I think to do at the time, and slam down the phone onto the base. That's when I lose it, and abruptly slap him across the face…

Peter's PoV:

I lay in bed, flicking through the different channels, until I find Letterman. I can use a little bit of comedy in my life right now. Or, was comedy something I just experienced downstairs? Either way, I'm having a difficult time believing Kate right now.

After all these years—for sixteen fucking years—my wife has always been faithful to me… or so I thought. Now, I'm just learning that my son isn't even mine. This can't be happening… This has to be some sort of Halloween prank.

Just now, I hear Kate hollering from downstairs. Her hollering is very unique from other shouters I know—Leslie not included—because Kate shrieks, when she shouts. It isn't long, before I hear someone rushing up the stairs, and pop into the bedroom doorway. Kate seems out of breath, and is in tears. I sit up in bed and turn, so I'm sitting on the side of the bed.

That's when I ask, "Kate, what's wrong?"

"It's Kevin… I know where he is, and he's in trouble," The tears are fastly escaping her eyes, as it appears to be that she's about to have a panic attack…

To be Continued…

A/N: Thanks again! :D Whoa… I'm sure you didn't see that coming with Marv, did you? :o This is all part of my plan! ;) I'm sure you'll be quite surprised, when you read further into this story! I just hope things continue to go well! Well, you know what to do after you read this! For now, ciao! :D
