in the hotel room

Las Vegas

This kiss was nothing like their previous one. It was full of passion and desire. But Miss Parker pulled away. Jarod was about to ask what happened when she said......

"We can't do this!" said Miss Parker.

Jarod had this shocked look on his face and he released Parker from his grasp. "Tell me that you don't want this. Say it! Just say it once and I'll leave you alone! Say that you don't feel it. That feeling that people call love."

"Jarod, even if I wanted this, we can never have it. The Centre would never allow it. If they find out, they could use me as bait to bring you back or maybe even something worse." said Miss Parker on the verge of tears. She ran from Jarod to the door. She tried to open it but it wouldn't budge.

Jarod ran after her and pulled her elbow to make her face him. He continued, "You and I wouldn't be in that kind of danger if you would just leave the Centre and come away with me. I could protect. We'll disappear forever off the Centre's radar. They'll never find us. We'll be safe."

"Jarod! The stupid door won't open! If this is part of your plan, I am gonna kill you!" That's when she realized that Jarod had a confused look on his face. He moved past her and tried to open the door. He tried but it wouldn't budge.

Jarod turned back around to face Parker and was about to tell her that it wouldn't open when he saw her gun trained on him. He cursed himself for not getting rid of it when he had the chance.

"Jarod, step away from the door!" said Miss Parker.

"Parker, are you serious. What just happened in the other room didn't mean anything to you? Why are you so willing to bring me back to that place? We both know that once you do. They won't let you go."

"Jarod......," Parker was about to reply when Jarod's computer said something.

"YOU'VE GOT MAIL!!"

Parker looked at Jarod with a suspicious look on her face. She pointed the gun toward Jarod's laptop, telling him to open his mail.

Jarod obeyed and after he read what was in his mail, he looked back at Parker with a face that reflected anger, sadness, and pity all at the same time.

Parker asked, "What is it!"

"Parker, I was doing some work before this whole 'fiasco' happened. They said that you father had a very low chance of having children in his prime so I asked myself how was it that he fathered a child in his old age." said Jarod.

"Are you talking about my little brother, Gabriel?" interrupted Parker.

"Yes, and so I did some DNA tests on everyone that I thought would be the parents of the baby. It included everyone in the Centre including you and me. I just got the test results right now." Continued Jarod.

"Well...." Said a very impatient Parker.

"Well, the tests say that Bridgette and your father were not the parents. Bridgette was just a surrogate. You and I are the real parents." said Jarod. He was waiting for her reaction and he didn't have to wait long.
