A/N sorry for being so long was deployed for a bit but back now

She wasn't wrong, she didn't know what to think, was he ok with this, did he want her to stay around, would his girlfriend want her around, questions swirled around her head and she turned her eyes to the man in that would have the answers.

"Are you okay with the results? "She asked softly.

Patrick look to Jason and moved out of the way giving the father and daughter sometime to themselves, Carly followed his lead.

Jason took the space that Patrick had occupied and knelt down in front of the girl, his daughter, and took her hands gently in his larger ones.

He smiled softly and her and nodded. "I had a feeling you were mine, so I have no problem with it being true, kid."

She looked visibly relieved, "Can….can I hug you?" she asked cautiously.

The look in her eyes made his stomach twist, it was a mix of longing and fear, he said nothing and gently pulled Anna in to his arms and held her close. She clung to him her arms wrapped tightly around him and her head resting on his shoulder, her own shoulders shaking slightly.

"It's ok kid, I got you." He tightened his arms holding her closer as she seemed to be emotionally overwhelmed.

The father and daughter sat like that for a few minutes as the girl calmed down and she slowly pulled away from her now father.

Jason smiled at her as they pulled back from one another. "You alright?" he asked.

She nodded and wiped her eyes, "Yea, fine. Sorry for the water works." She laughed ever so slightly.

He shook his head, "It's fine, everything is okay."

"Guess you don't get the hotel, Jace." Carly said smiling at the pair.

They both turned almost forgetting there were other people around them and Jason shot her an amused look.

"Guess not."

"What do you mean?" The girl asked looking between them.

"I told Jason if you weren't his that he could have the MetroCourt." Carly explained smiling brightly.

Annabell found herself laughing and shaking her head, what world was this where she knew people that OWNED a fucking hotel and would bet it, even jokingly.

She honestly didn't know what to do now, what was the process in this situation, what did one do after finding out who their father was.

"Anna?" Jason looked to the girl, who's brow was scrunched and looked like she was thinking way to hard.

She was jarred from her thoughts, "Sorry, I think I just need to process, it's a lot, even if I was pretty sure I was right."

Jason could understand that, he had a daughter, he was actually quite happy but at the same time he needed to do the same, it was a change a huge change but not a bad one.

"You should take the time to process, this isn't a normal thing to take in, emotionally this can be very stressing." Patrick said giving Jason a pointed look as he mentioned stress, giving the girls panic attack.

Jason wasn't stupid, he could read between the lines, she didn't need the stress after a panic attack.

He ran a hand through his hair and nodded, "Patrick is right, why don't we take the day to process and maybe, if you would like, you could come over to the penthouse and we could get to know each other?"

"Yes!" She all but yelled at the thought of time, time to freak out by herself and peace and quiet.
