"Alright, you sure you wanna do this?" asked Tim as him and Calleigh pulled up in the parking lot of Madison's school.
"Of course I do. Just... Tim promise me..."
"I know don't let my temper get the best of me."
"Yeah." said Calleigh as Tim peeked her cheek.

The same secretary from a few days before was still there and she lowered herself in her seat when she saw Tim enter.
"C-can I hel-p you?"

"Thank you."

"Mr. and Mrs. Speedle please take a seat." said Mrs. Williams as Calleigh and Tim walked into her office. "I'm sorry I couldn't talk to you the other day, I was away at lunch."
"That's ok. Your here now." said Calleigh as her and Tim sat down.
"I'm very sorry to here about your daughter, I assure you that nothing like this has ever happen."
"Yeah, until now." said Tim. Calleigh kicked him in the shin.
"Prinicpal Williams." started Calleigh.
"Please call me Linda."
"Ok...Linda. When i registered Madison here we gave you a contact card of saying who our daughter was allowed to leave with. On that card it said my husband and myself, Lt. Caine, Detective Delko, Alexx Woods, or my parents. Now what I wanna know is why you let her go with a teahcer."
The principal didn't know what to say.
"Or more importantly." started Tim. "Why you hired an escaped felon."
"We didn't know Jack Brown was a felon until you told us."
"You are required to back round checks." said Tim.
"Well yes we are but uh-" Mrs. Williams.
"Are you working with him?" asked Tim. Calleigh looked at him.
"Excuse me?"
"Are you work-"
"Tim can I see you in the hallway please?" asked Calleigh.
Tim looked at the prinicpal sternly. "Sure."
"What is your problem?" asked Calleigh once they were in the hall.
"Sorry."
"You can't just go throwing around accusations like that."
"Accusations?" stated Tim. "Calleigh it was a simple question."
"You know what i think it would be best if you went back to the lab, or better yet I think you should go home."
"Calleigh..."
"Tim, I want our daughter back-"
"And you don't think I don't!" yelled Tim.
"I didn't say you didn't-"
"You didn't have to." stated a hurt Tim and walked away.
"Were are you going?" asked Calleigh in her southern drawl.
"I'm doing what you told me to. I'm going home. And I really don't care if you come or not."
Calleigh sighed and walked towards Tim.
The secretary watched the argument from her desk and quickly dialed a number.
"Jack, yeah its me Emma. Your plans working. There already fighting over her." said Emma in a hushed tone.

"...YOU ARE NOT MY FATHER!" screamed Madison. "Tim Speedle is my father."
"How can you be sure?" asked Jason.
Madison didn't know what to say.
"Well were going to find out arn't we." said Jason as he took out a needle and pricked Madison's finger and pulling out a q-tip and taking the blood from her finger. "Here let's send this to your dad."

"Tim would just talk to me please?" screamed Calleigh as they walked into their house.
"No."
"Why not." screamed Calleigh.
"Guys..."
"Because! Damn it Calleigh I was just asking her a simple question."
"Yeah Tim I get that but if you pull the rabit out of the hat before your ready then the trick doesn't work."
"Guys..." said Ryan.
"I can't believe your comparing me to a trick Calleigh."
"Guys..."
"WHAT! screamed Calleigh and Tim together.
"You guys got a package." The newbie stated with wide eyes. Obviously the Speedle's were not ones to mess with.
Calleigh didn't say anything to Ryan as her and Tim walked into the kitchen.
Calleigh put on a pair of gloves and opened up the package. Inside she found a letter and a swab.
"This should satisfy your curosity Speedle." Calleigh read aloud.
"What is it?" asked Tim.
"It's a swab..." said Calleigh.
"Why would he be sending us a swab." started Tim.
"Tim..." said Calleigh her eyes filling up with tears. "Its got blood on it."
Tim didn't say anything for awhile then when he finally realized he knew how to talk he said. "We should uh...get this over to the lab."

"Valera how long can this take?" asked Calleigh.
"Its almost donw." said Valera as the machine beeped printing out the results.
"What is it?" asked Tim.
"Its Maddy's blood." said Valera before Calleigh took the results from her hand when Calleigh saw the results she gasped and put a hand over her mouth.
"Calleigh what is it?"
"Tim...uh..."
"Calleigh..." said Tim when she didn't answer Tim took the paper.
TIm crumbled it up and threw it on the ground. "Madison's not mine."
"Tim..." said Calleigh tears rolling down her cheeks.
"Leave me alone." said Tim his own tears falling down his cheeks gently. "Just...leave me alone." was all he said before he walked out the door leaving Valera stunned and Calleigh crying silently.
TBC...awwwwwwww I just wanna wrap my arms around Tim and tell him its going to be ok.
