Chapter number 18. A past you don't know.
"What is it?" Jack asked her. He looked back at the photo, it was a picture of Martha with a little girl who didn't look any older than about three or four years old and she resembled Martha in too many ways to name.
"Look Jack I'm going to tell you a part of my life that you know nothing about, and I want you to promise that you won't start freaking out until I tell you I'm finished".
"Ok" Jack answered.
Martha sighed and began to start "When I was fourteen I met a guy at school called Alex, and things were going alright between us, um, until, I, u, I got pregnant-".
"You what?" Jack said getting up to leave.
"Wait" Martha said grabbing Jacks arm to stop him "you said you wouldn't start freaking out until I'd finished talking".
Jack took a deep breath in and sat back down "So where is she now?" He asked.
"That's the part of the story I was about to get up to. After Alex found out he stated to freak out and that led to him getting aggressive. By the time I gave birth he'd gotten so bad that we had to take out an AVO" Martha told him beginning to cry. "I named her Amy. Then a few years later I came home to find a note on the table, it was from Alex, he'd taken Amy away and we haven't seen ether of them since. There was a police investigation, but they gave up an assumed that she was dead". Martha burst into tears, she couldn't hold them back anymore.
Jack didn't say anything, he just ran, he didn't know what else to do. He wanted to stay there and comfort Martha but he couldn't, he just needed some space to think.
Martha sat on the couch knowing that she had probably lost Jack forever, but she knew she had done the right thing by telling him, he deserved to know the truth, she owed it to him.
Over at the destroyed hide out the police had just arrived and discovered the mess that had been made "Take Miss Robberts home" The head officer ordered.
"Hey where did you disappear to?" Scott asked Lisa as she walked through the door of the Hunters house.
"Oh nowhere important, just for a walk" Lisa lied.
"Ok" Scott said convinced, she wasn't exactly looking like herself, she was wearing black long pants and a black tank top and her hair was a bit messier than usual, almost like she had had a disagreement with some bushes.
"I'm just going to have a shower, ok?"
"Ok".
"Oh and after do you think you could come down to the hospital with me?"
"Yeah, sure. Why do you need to go to the hospital?"Lisa asked.
"I'm not sure, I got a phone call from them saying that something about Noah's parentage results. I don't get why there bringing that up now but anyway I'm sure it's just a mistake".
Next time:
Is Lisa the stalker?
Has anyone survived at the hide out?
What will Scott do when he finds out that he's Noah's father?
Will Jack and Martha's relationship survive?
Will they ever find out what happened to little Amy?
