Authors Note: Hey! I heard a few people liked this fic, so I'm continuing it XD.

Anyways, although some of you may be mad that I seemingly posted Ryan as the bad guy, don't you worry. He's not bad on purpose. He's just bad by accident….which technically isn't all that much better…O.o

Chapter 10

Ryan followed Marissa, and he was surprised to find out that she was rushing to Alex's house. He was even more so surprised when he found out she had a key and used it immediately to get in. Ryan stealthily followed her, and slowly started to inch his head up to the windowsill, sneaking in glances in the house. He saw Marissa laughing in there, playing with…something…he couldn't see it, it was too short. All of a sudden though, he heard a shriek, and a crash. That was enough for Ryan, as he went up to the door and opened it so fast that he didn't have time to react to what was behind it. His mind went numb when he saw what he never in his life expected to see in Marissa's lap: a little baby boy. As Ryan continued to stare, Alex walked in, with an old shirt in her hands. She stopped dead in her tracks however when her gaze fell upon Ryan, then Nathan.

"Wha…what the hell is going on here Marissa!" Ryan shouted, finally gaining the use of his voice again.

"I should be asking you that question Ryan; what the hell are you doing here!" Marissa shouted back, while putting Nathan on the ground.

As the two continued to fight, no one but Nathan noticed Alex slowly crumble to the floor, clutching her shirt, gasping for air.

"Mommy!" Nathan shouted as he rushed as fast as he could towards Alex; this cause Ryan to, for the first time, gaze at Alex while Marissa rushed towards Alex.

"Alex's what's…" Marissa started as she leaned towards her to touch her shoulder, but held back when she saw Alex visibly flinch.

"Dirty…dirty…dirty…it's all over me…dirty…it's my fault…it's my fault…god…why didn't I know…and him……..him…" Alex was muttering, on the verge of tears.

"Alex…come on…what's wrong?" Marissa whispered, nearly on the verge of tears herself at the thought that Alex was uncomfortable with her touching her now.

"Him…why didn't I see…he looks so much…like…him…" Alex finally gasped out, breaking down into tears.

"Alex…what are you talking about…I just wanna help."

"…She's talking about daddy…" Nathan said quietly.

"Daddy? But…your daddy isn't here; he isn't…oh god…"

"Marissa, what the hell is going on!" Ryan yelled, reminding Marissa of when Ryan first arrived, when he was still a Chino bad boy.

"Why didn't I see it…oh god…Alex….ALEX! What's his name…tell me his name!" Marissa said gently, yet forcefully at Alex, who's sobbing was starting to die.

"….Michael….Michael Atwood…"

"Oh god…" Marissa breathed out.

"….Dad?" Ryan whispered.

Btw, I'm not exactly sure what Ryan's daddy's name is. If his name is known, please tell me
