"What the hell are you playing at Zacchara?" She asked shoving past him.

"It's not like that, I didn't know who the hell she was before we ended up here. Nothing happened I swear we just had a bit to much to drink." Johnny said defensively.

"Hi Carly!" The girl on the couch smiled.

"Hey hun." Carly turned back to Johnny. "The beard burn from you stubble on her face says something else."

Johnny's hand went to his face before looking over at Anna. "What are you talking about."

"Nothing but the fact you had to check tells me something, did you take advantage of her?" Carly was full on mama bear, the girl was trashed, though Johnny didn't look much better he was not a 19 year old kid.

"He didn't do anything, Carly." Annabell may not be sober but she had the sense to know what Carly was implying.

"So he didn't get you trashed? Didn't take advantage of your state?" The blonde looked between the two.

"Carly, I'm a lot of things but no that guy." Johnny told her leaning on the couch for support.

"He's telling the truth, if anyone was taking advantage it was, oddly enough, me." She blushed at her realization, she was more brazen then she would normally have been.

"Be that as it may, you need to come with me, now. Jason already knows you're not at the hotel, he doesn't need to know you're with Johnny Zacchara." Carly nodded toward the door.

Annabell stood tipsy from the couch grabbing her bag as she did. "Fine, I want to sleep anyway."

She walked toward Johnny, leaning over kissing him on the cheek. "Thanks for being an idiot with me."

Johnny smiled. "I would say any time but." He nodded toward Carly. "Good night."

"Night." Anna walked to the door before with Carly following closely behind her.

Once the pair excited Johnny's place and walked on to the elevator, Carly decided to speak.

"What the hell were you thinking, getting drunk with a random man?" Carly snapped at the girl, she wasn't really mad at her just the thought of what could have happened if she had been with anyone other then Johnny. She may have accused the man of taking advantage but she knew Johnny, may not like him all that much, but taking advantage of a young drunk girl was not his style, he was a some what decent person.

Annabell looked up at Carly and shrugged, "I don't know, he helped me out, we talked and he offered a drink. It didn't seem like a bad idea at the time." she honestly regretted nothing, she had more fun with Johnny then she had, had in a long time.

Carly and Annabell walked to Carly's SUV and she waited before responding to the girl. "You went to a strangers apartment and got drunk! He could have done God knows what and you wouldn't have been able to stop him, you put yourself in danger, the only saving grace is it was at least Johnny but you could have been hurt or..." Carly trailed off leaving the last part left unsaid but they both knew the word, raped.

Annabell sobered at the thought and shuttered. "I know." She said softly. "I just wanted to forget and have fun for a little but you're right if it had been someone else they could have hurt me. He, Johnny didn't do anything like that I swear, we just talked and...kissed a little but it wasn't forced or anything like that he was just nice."

They pulled in to the Metro Court and Carly killed the engine. "I understand that but I just want to make sure you understand it could have been worse and about that kissing, did he happen to mention that he has a girlfriend?"

Annabell's mouth formed a little 'O' and she shook her head. "No, he didn't." She said deflating and looking away from Carly.

Fucking Zacchara, Carly thought. "Look, once that DNA test comes back and it says what I am already pretty sure about, that you are Jason's daughter, I'm going to have to tell him who you were with. I won't keep this a secret from him and he already knows you were with someone, so you need to be aware he will not take this well in the slightest, Johnny Zacchara fucking around with his daughter whether he knew it or not won't matter to him."

The girl felt like banging her head on something, one day in town and already fucking up people's lives, good for nothing little bitch, the words echoed in her head in her step fathers voice, maybe he was right, maybe she just was good for nothing, maybe she should have never came.

"Maybe it better for everyone if I just leave." She whispered softly, her eyes filled with unshed tears.

Carly's eyes snapped to the girl. "What? No, it would not be better and if you think for a second that Jason wouldn't chase you down you're wrong. Look kid we all mess up, I know I did when I am to town around your age and trust me I fucked up far more but if you are Jason's you belong here with him, no matter how much you mess up Jason would never turn on you, or not want you. So don't do anything as stupid as leaving, Jason is loyal to a fault, he will be loyal to you no matter what, hell you could rob a bank and he would stand by your side...so would I."

She absorbed the words and nodded, she could always leave later. "Why would you? Stand by be that is?" She asked, she could understand Jason doing it if her were her father but she didn't know Carly.

"Jason is family and if you're his you're going to gain a lot of people along with him, his family will become yours and we stand by our family." Carly said with a fierceness in her tone.

Sam came in to the penthouse with a slam of the door. "JASON!" She yelled out as she walked in to the living room.

Jason all but flinched at the yelling as he walked down the stairs. "I'm here no need to yell." He said lightly.

"Why the hell haven't you answered any of my messages? I was worried." She stared at him with frustration.

"I had something to take care of, haven't even checked my phone." He lied but he didn't want to tell her not yet anyway.

She stared at him as if seeing through the lie. "You expect me to believe you haven't checked you're phone since this morning? What the hell is going on Jason?"

Fuck, Jason thought, she had known him too long to believe the lie. "Why don't you sit and we can talk?" he motioned to the couch.

Her eyes narrowed and she crossed her arms. "I don't need to sit just tell me what the hell is going in Jason." She spat back.

He scrubbed a hand over his face and sighed. "A girl came by today, she thinks I'm her father, she was conceived before my accident." He explained.

Sam rolled her eyes and scoffed. "Please it's probably just so little bitch trying to get your money, I would hope you sent her packing."

Jason had to hold back when Sam called Anna a bitch, protectiveness flooded him. "Don't call her that." He said with out raising his voice but his tone sharp.

Sam's looked surprised, "Are you kidding me, please tell me that you sent her away."

"No I didn't, we are getting a DNA test done in the morning but I think she maybe mine." He told her and braced himself for the onslaught.

Sam laughed. "This girl is playing you, Jason, why entertain her, just tell her to go back where she came from, if she was yours the mother would have be here for the cash grab a long time ago."

Jason held his tongue. "I'm getting the test done, I need to know and she deserves to know." He told her leaving no room for discussion.

Sam rolled her eyes. "Don't say I didn't tell you when this all comes out to be a lie."

Jason decided not to comment, "I'm heading to bed, you coming?"
