Hunter sighed he wasn't looking forward to facing Joanie this evening, especially when she found out the truth. It had been three days since he'd visited Stephanie and Cameron and now it was time for him to come clean about everything. He just hoped she didn't dump him he was still in love with her despite being confused about Stephanie, he wasn't exactly sure what was going on between them, they'd had sex a few weeks ago the same thing almost happened a few days ago. What was she playing at? Wasn't she supposed to not trust him? He took a deep breath going through everything he needed to say. Hunter heard Joanie coming in he clasped his hands together, she smiled at him giving him a kiss on the lips.

"Hey Baby I thought you weren't going to be back til later" Inquired Joanie placing her bag down she threw her coat of hanging it up

"They swapped my shift" Said Hunter

"Is everything ok?"

"I need to talk to you about something" Sighed Hunter she sat opposite him folding her arms, he wasn't quite sure how to tell her. He grabbed her hand smiling at her this was going to be a lot harder than he thought, but he had to tell her the truth sooner or later she would find out.

"I haven't been totally honest with about something" Said Hunter

Joanie was confused she wasn't quite sure what he was talking about; his head was down looking at the carpet he was avoiding eye contact. Though he had been rather quiet over the past couple of weeks, ever since they'd come back from New York he'd been so withdrawn which was totally unlike Hunter.

"What are you talking about" Asked Joanie a little worried about what she might discover

I haven't always lived in Connecticut………a few years ago I lived in New York it's how I met Shawn" Explained Hunter

Joanie nodded feeling his grip tighten she knew he was about to tell her more, by the sounds of things it had something to do with Shawn.

"I was in a pretty bad way and well Shawn was there for me he let me stay with him in his apartment, however he wasn't the only one living there Shawn was married" Said Hunter "At first I really hated her but then we…….slept together and we kind of had an affair"

"Well that's in the past right…….what does that have to do with us" Said Joanie

"I….she……she got pregnant"

Hunter felt her hand slip from his grasp, his throat went dry he knew she had figured it out, he just hoped she'd be a little understanding and they could be civil about this, though judging by her body language it would be anything but that.

"Please tell me she got an Abortion" Said Joanie

"Not exactly"

"So you have a child somewhere in New York?" Shouted Joanie she had quite the temper on her at times

Yes…….I have a son

"You didn't think of telling me this, where you ever going to tell me this or where you just going to wait for him to turn up on our doorstep" Shouted Joanie

"It wasn't like that I wanted to tell you but it's complicated"

"I can't believe you'd lie to me like that there was me thinking we could start a family, well you don't need one you already have one"

"What are you trying say? Just because I have a son doesn't mean we can't be together" Pleaded Hunter he couldn't end things like this, as much as he cared about Cameron he didn't want to hurt Joanie

"Oh really that's easy for you to say Hunter, we both know things won't work out"

"How can you be so sure when we haven't even tried" Said Hunter

"Because I just know that's why" Spat Joanie "What about his mother how do you feel about her?"

Hunter didn't really know how he felt about her, so much had happened between them, yes they'd had sex a few times but he wasn't sure if it was meaningless sex or something more. He looked into her eyes she was waiting for his answer, if he wanted to save their relationship he'd tell Joanie he had no feelings for Stephanie.

"You care about her don't you….have you been sleeping with her" Snarled Joanie "You bastard you have haven't you"

"I'm sorry"

"Sorry…I thought you where different though it looks like you're just another asshole that's jerked me around" Shouted Joanie

"I never wanted this to happen and I still want to be with you"

"Yeah well I wish we could too but you've hurt me, you lied to me not only about your son but having an affair with his mother"

"I slept with her once I wouldn't exactly call that an affair" Defended Hunter

"But you where still with another woman while you where with me"

Joanie ran into the bedroom quickly grabbing her things, she opened the drawers emptying out her clothes. She was too angry and hurt to think straight, she couldn't believe he'd lie to her, the same man she wanted to marry and start a family with. After Joanie had grabbed her belongings she zipped her duffel bag up.

"I'm leaving" Said Joanie

"Baby come on now don't do this"

"Don't Baby me I can't even look at you, as far as I'm concerned were finished" Shouted Joanie closing the door behind her.

"Fuck" Said Hunter

Hunter never wanted things to end like this he wanted to be honest with her; little did he know she wouldn't take it so well. He was so confused he didn't want to end things like this with Joanie, yet at the same time he wanted to be with his son and Stephanie.

Hunter took a deep breath running his hands through his blonde hair he was foolish to think things would be easy from now on, he knew she was blowing off some steam, though even if she did take him back things would never be the same again. He had a kid with another woman to her he already has his family.

Stephanie finished buttoning up Cameron's shirt, she glanced at the clock Hunter was due here any minute now. She wasn't quite sure how to approach him, last time they where together he seemed a little distant, and well when she suggested they go into the bedroom.

Stephanie wondered if he was still interested in her, she had been mad at him when she first seen him again, however when she saw how good he was with there son she realized he was the arrogant asshole he once was. Hunter had grown up then again both of them had. There was a light tap at the door once again Stephanie had managed to convince Steven to go out and give them some alone time. He wasn't too keen on the idea at first, however after a bit of persuasion he caved.

Stephanie picked up Cameron balancing him on her hip she made the short trip to the front door. Stephanie opened the front door smiling at Hunter he looked tired and completely drained, she knew something was wrong. Stephanie feared this worst perhaps he came here to tell her he wanted nothing to do with her, or he was married and already had a family.

Hunter half smiled touching Cameron's small hand it looked tiny compared to his own.

"Can I come in?" Asked Hunter

"Yes of course"

Stephanie moved out the way letting him pass, he unzipped his leather jacket sitting down on the sofa. He was so exhausted, since Joanie had walked out he'd been trying to call her, he must have left about 50 messages on her message manager. Despite the amount of messages she still hadn't called him, he didn't want to leave things like this he just couldn't.

"Hunter is everything ok?" Asked Stephanie placing Cameron on the carpet, he crawled around looking for some toys to play with.

"Yeah it's fine…….I'm just a little tired" Hunter half smiled at her, he interlinked his fingers together

"Look Hunter if you don't want this……."

"No I do I just…….I had to take care of a few things and once everything is straightened out then I can think about moving closer" Explained Hunter his throat felt like sandpaper, he really wanted to be honest with her however it was hard. He'd always cared about Stephanie even more so than Joanie, sometimes he thought it was because she had his kid. Deep down he knew he was only kidding himself, he just wished things weren't so complicated right now.

"That would be good" Smiled Stephanie

Stephanie could tell something was up she wanted to know what was bothering him, last time he came round he seemed so happy she wondered if it had anything to do with before he left. She still wondered if he wanted her or maybe he didn't, maybe he just wanted to be there for Cameron or maybe he felt guilty about leaving her a few years ago. Stephanie was so confused right now she didn't know what to think anymore, she just hoped everything would sort itself out soon.
