AN: So, as you can see, the title has changed, since I there is a similarly titled, similarly themed fanfic in the same category. I'd like to apologize to LJP, the author of the other fanfic, for this mistake. I'd also like to thank Dr-Dino-Dude for making me notice this.

Jason stormed out of the house. He needed to breathe some fresh air in order to absorb the unbelievable fact his father -- his foster father, he now realized -- had told him. So many unthinkable things had happened to him in past couple of months, the accident topping them all, but this was something different. He was feeling confused, angry, deceived by those he loved… It was difficult for Jason to accept that his late mother had lied to him as well.
But Jason also felt as if he had added one more piece to his life's puzzle. All those years of wondering why had ended. Why he was different. Why he was never hurt like the other boys were when he was bullied back in grade school. Why he was never, ever late for anything when he sprinted to his destination. Why, no matter how cold winter was, he never felt the need for a jacket or coat. Why his mother had died in that accident and he had escaped without even a scratch.
It all made sense now.
Jason walked through the deserted street and arrived at the park where he used to play when he was younger. There was obviously no-one there at six thirty on a Sunday morning. He sat on one of the swings and looked around. He remembered coming here with his mother when he was about four. She had been very overprotective and had barely let him play on anything, but he remembered that she would've sat him on these swings and push him for what seemed like the whole afternoon.
Jason remembered that the day after she died, he had sat there, on this very swing, crying. His father had come later and sat on the one next to him. He had smiled sadly and said, "It's just you and me now, Jason, so we have to stick out for each other."
Jason had been emotionally destroyed by what happened back then. He cried himself to sleep almost every night, and when he did manage to sleep for longer than an hour, he would have nightmares similar to the one he had this morning. His grades dropped so much it almost cost him the full-ride scholarship Met-U's School of Performing Arts had offered him for when he graduated from high school. Luckily, with the help of his father and school counselor, Jason was able to get back on track for his finals and ended his senior year with above-average grades.
Jason looked up to see the sun had already risen above the horizon. He was starting to feel better now. It always happened when he looked at the sun; he had always wondered why. Now he knew. It was then and there that Jason decided it:
He would find and talk to his biological father.

AN: Okay, that's all for now. Sorry if it was a little uneventful and slow-paced, as this is the pace most of the story will be like. Maybe I'll put some action into it later on, I dunno. Thanks for the reviews! Those really encourage me to continue. And if you like this story, I highly recommend reading "In the shadow of my father", by Alphie. It's in my favourite stories list. Go read it now! It's truly amazing.
