Disclaimer: Although I have been busy, gaining part of GH was not in my recent feats.
A/N Please forgive me for the long wait guys! School started Yesterday and there was so much crap u had to get done yesterday I had homework in 4 classes, and not just normal "sign this paper get a notebook" homework REAL homework like reading and the doing questions on it and UGH! It should be illegal for Teachers to assign homework on the first day of school….so anyway I couldn't get to it yesterday, but I just finished watching GH today and I decided to write and Post another chapter before I started at TODAYS homework….HIGH SCHOOL SUCKS! LOL, Oh & Sorry for those of you who want Jesse to find out about the baby this chapter, but I have the perfect way of him finding out…and your just going to have to wait. Sorry for the rambling, here is chapter 11
CHAPTER 11
Maxie walks into the police station and asks one of the nearby officers to where her dad was; they directed her into his officer where Mac was sitting.
"Hey Dad." She said as she entered
"Oh Maxie what a pleasant surprise." Mac said smiling and looking at his beautiful daughter, Realizing that she had put on a little weight but brushing it off and happy to hear the news Maxie was about to give him
"Is Jesse in today?" Maxie asked hoping he wasn't so she didn't have to tell him about the letter.
"No unfortunately he has off today, but you can tell me what ever it is without him." Mac said, expecting his daughter to enlighten him with the news of their engagement
"Well that's what I was hoping" Maxie said, sensing her father's happiness "Dad have you even talked to Jesse at all lately." Maxie asked
"Well I've tried too, but he's umm Kind of stand-off-ish when I ask him about you guys and about the…" Mac stopped himself trying not to ruin his daughter's news about the proposal.
"About the what?" Maxie asked
"About the…Uh… The Relationship with you, and how it's going." Mac corrected himself quickly
"Well. It's not really 'going'" Maxie said
Mac was taken by complete surprise, "What? what do you mean?" Mac asked quickly thinking Maxie might have turned down the proposal.
"Me & Jesse sort of took a split about 3 months ago." Maxie said
"WHAT?" Mac said, "What the hell happened I thought you guys were going great?" Mac asked.
"Well, we were, until Amanda came to town." Maxie said
"Amanda? Tall Girl brown hair?" Mc asked as if he remembered her
"Uh yea?" Maxie said
"I remember here she came in and out of here talking to Jesse a couple of times, But what does she have to do with you two splitting." Mac asked not fully getting it
"Well She's pretty much the reason, Amanda is his ex-girlfriend from California." Maxie said
Mac gave her a blank look telling her to continue. "Well I found out from overhearing her and Jesse talking, that Jesse had been lying to me about pretty much everything he ever told me about his past." Maxie said
Mac now getting the drift answered, "But Maxie the past is the past, you can't get over a simple lie he might have told? People make mistakes." Mac said
"Yea, well Then I went to talk to Georgie about…" Maxie stopped herself one more time "Just about the whole fight and everything, and she made me realize that, and so I go back to my apartment to talk to Jesse, and sort things out for 'our' sake and then I walk in to find him in bed with that slut Of an ex-girlfriend Amanda." Maxie finished the story with a tear lingering in her eye.
Mac looked at Maxie completely in awe figuring out why Jesse had refused to answer him about the proposal and how things were with Maxie. His body filled with rage at Jesse for treating his daughter like this. But he looked over at his daughter to see the tear still lingering in her eyes and his rage turned to sympathy for his eldest child. He grabbed her and pulled her into a hug "Maxie, I had no idea, I'm so sorry,"
Maxie buried her head in her father's jacket and let the tears fall once more. Mac held his daughter in his arms like he did when she was little and she would stub her toe or gets a cut. He just wanted her pain to go away, but unlike a stubbed toe, or a cut, He couldn't just simply kiss her pain away, this was worse, the emotional hurt was always more then the physical hurt.
When Maxie's tears finally let up she sat back down into the chair across form the table and Mac then asked his daughter "But Maxie, It's been 3 months since this happened and why are you coming to me now? Why not 3 months ago?" Mac asked
"Actually that's not the reason I came today." Maxie said
"Then what's the matter hunny, is something else wrong, do I have to kill Jesse for more reasons now?" Mac said
"No, it's not really about Jesse…At least I don't think it is." Maxie said handing her dad the folder with the news article in it.
"After I was at the hospital for…my heart check up, this morning I found this on my bed, on the haunted star." Maxie said
Before opening the package he looked at his daughter wondering why the haunted star. And she immediately answered the look
"I moved in there the day I caught him with her, Dillon is still in the dorms at PCU, so have the place to myself, in Dillon's old room." Maxie said
"Dillon knew about this before me? Now don't I really feel like the clueless dad."? Mac said a little upset
"Dad, It's not the point, just open the envelope." Maxie said
"Right" Mac said as he slowly pulled the paper out of the envelope and read the words written in red on the page.
"Maxie? Whoa do you have any idea who wrote this or anything?" Mac started to drill her
Maxie went on explaining her talk with Dillon and Georgie.
"So wait you got this and then you walked her…all by yourself Maxie? Do you know how dangerous that was, you could have gotten kidnapped or worse!" Mac said
"Chill down Mac, Dillon's here, he walked with me, so I wasn't alone, he's out in the lobby waiting for me" Maxie said
"He is actually a very nice kid isn't he." Mac said finally warming up to Dillon, Realizing, Georgie and him are going to be like the next Sonny & Cary of PC, with less break-ups of course, but everyone knows they will always be together.
"Yea Dillon's a great friend, and a great boyfriend to Georgie, one who would never think twice about cheating on her." Maxie said
"But it's good you came to me Maxie, and not Jesse, because Right now, as much as you don't want to admit it, Jesse is a suspect. It makes sense." Mac said
Maxie tried not to fight it, Every urge in her body was telling her to tell her dad to lay off Jesse and he wouldn't hurt her, But truly she didn't know that, he was able to emotionally Kill her why not hurt her physically.
She and her dad went through the list of possible suspect including Lorenzo alcazar, Amanda, Jesse and then anyone they could find in Murphy's past as well.
Maxie gave her father a long hug and promised to keep in better touch with him now and she exited his office and went into the lobby and couldn't find Dillon, she asked a officer at the front desk, and they said that he had stepped outside for a phone call a couple minutes ago.
Maxie made her way outside and couldn't find Dillon anywhere; She walked over to the side of the Police station calling his name. When she reached the side that's when she saw Dillon Lying on the ground, clearly unconscious, then she saw the small amount of blood on his tee shirt.
She began to scream, and she turned around to run back into the police station when a hand from behind her came out and grabbed her mouth covering the scream "Don't scream now, pretty girl." The voice said
