Duncan and Alejandro just looked at each other. Duncan had a smirk on his face and Alejandro didn't look amused. Heather just crossed her arms and looked at Alejandro before stepping away from Duncan.

"I returned here when Geoff informed you were in the hospital." Alejandro told her. "I wanted to come back to make sure you were okay and from the looks of it, you appear to be doing well."

"I thought you didn't want to stick around." Heather rolled her eyes.

"I never said I didn't want to be around." Alejandro told her. "Did you ever think that maybe I just wanted you to have a better life then what you had?!"

"I'm going now." Duncan smirked. "See ya, Heather. I don't want this guy to get in a huff over nothing."

"Duncan." Heather gestured to Alejandro. "This is Alejandro and Alejandro this is Duncan who is leaving."

"I'll be seeing you around." Alejandro told Duncan.

"Looking forward to it." Duncan smirked.

Duncan walked out the door and to his vehicle while Alejandro watched him leave. Once Duncan was gone, Heather seemed more annoyed with Alejandro.

"You always did pick the worst times to show up and to leave." Heather groaned. "Well now that you showed up and ruined my night, you can leave now."

"Oh, I'm not leaving." Alejandro smirked. "I'm definitely staying."

"You can't just invite yourself to stay at someone's house!" Heather yelled. "Geoff was invited! You're not!"

"Would you mind?" Alejandro turned to Blaineley and asked her.

"Not at all." Blaineley smirked. "I can see Heather isn't into the idea so I think that's perfect for her. You can stay."

"That's horrible parenting..." Josh sighed. "I going with he can stay because we can't make a 16 year old kid sleep on the streets."

"It's not like I didn't practically live with you and your Dad anyway." Alejandro smirked. "I stayed over there...a lot."

"I'll be in my room." Heather told Blaineley and Josh. "Don't bother me."

"I'll join you!" Alejandro suggested as he followed Heather upstairs to her room.

"Keep the door open!" Josh yelled to Heather and Alejandro.


It was two hours later since Alejandro decided he was staying with Heather and Blaineley made the horrible parenting choice of allowing this to happen. Heather ended up throwing a pillow on the floor and continued to ignore him by watching the TV in her room and turning up the volume every time he spoke. It already took him half an hour to even get her to let him in.

"Heather, I don't know why you're not even going to talk to me!" Alejandro told her.

"You can't just show up in and out of my life." Heather finally told him. "I don't even know why you bothered to show up here when you're just going to leave again."

"I thought you'd like someone familiar around." Alejandro told her. "I'm here now. Do you want me to say I should have stayed? If I stayed, would you be kissing that...that...guy?!"

"Duncan?" Heather smirked. "He gets me."

"I get you." Alejandro sighed. "Geoff's here and I'm here. Things are going to be better for you."

"You're damn right." Heather told him. "I don't even know why I'm telling you this but it's not going to be like this for long. If you plan on 'sticking around' that's good for you because I'm not."

"What do you mean by that?" Alejandro crawled over to the door and lightly shut it. "You're not thinking of bailing out on your family are you?"

"I just so happens that I am." Heather told him. "These people aren't my family. Even if that woman gave birth to me, she's not my Mother and I'm going to live with my Dad."

"You can't do that." Alejandro told her. "Chris is a wanted man now, for kidnapping you. I don't think you can just decide to go and live with him."

"I didn't." Heather told him. "He decided he didn't want to lose me either and he made contact with me and I'm going with him."

"That sounds like a horrible idea." Alejandro reminded her. "Are you forgetting that even though your Father may have wild parties and do whatever he wants and it may seem fun, he also lacks responsibility and he'll leave as soon as things get bad, like they are now."

"We'll have to do a name change, that's all..." Heather muttered. "Totally worth it."

"Si, running away with your Father who kidnapped you years ago seems like a great idea." Alejandro rolled his eyes. "If that's what you're going to do, you're not going to listen to me. I think it's a terrible idea going with that plan but we both know by now that you're not going to listen to me."

"That means you should just leave now." Heather sighed. "I'm going to sleep, I have to go to school tomorrow. I hope that means you'll just leave and keep your mouth shut now that you know what's going on."

"All the more reason for me to stay." Alejandro told her as Heather sighed, turned off the light and the two of them went to sleep.


The next morning when Alejandro woke up he saw that he slept straight through the night and Heather was no longer there. Alejandro looked at the clock and saw it was after 10:00am so he went downstairs to see Geoff sitting at the counter and look at the newspaper.

"Hola amigo." Alejandro sat down next to him. "I take it that the girls went to school?"

"Yep." Geoff sipped some coffee. "You want some coffee? Mr. O'Halloran made before they left?"

"Oh, he took them to school?" Alejandro poured himself a cup of coffee and sat down next to Geoff. "What are you looking for?"

"A job." Geoff sighed. "If I'm gonna stay here, I'll need to find somewhere to work."

"Busy morning, huh?" Alejandro sighed. "Taking them to school so early and then looking for a job. If you want, I can drive Heather and Bridgette to school tomorrow and you can sleep in?"

"Oh, I didn't take them to school." Geoff shrugged. "I was going to do but then Duncan showed up and offered them a ride."

"That guy is starting to bug me." Alejandro groaned. "If he thinks he's going to take Heather from me, he's got another thing coming."

"Heather seemed into him." Geoff shrugged. "Just tell her you want her back and see what happens. I can tell you still like her."

"Obviously I still have feelings for her." Alejandro told him. "She's going through a lot and I want to give her space."

"Your call, dude." Geoff told him. "Hey! The gas station is hiring!"

"I'm not working at a gas station." Alejandro rolled his eyes.

"I'm going to check it out." Geoff assured him. "What are you going to do?"

"Try to find out where Chris is." Alejandro sighed. "I have my reasons."

"Good luck." Geoff got up and put his coffee cup in the sink. "Well, I'm off to see if I can get a job at the gas station."

Geoff left and while he was gone, Alejandro got Heather's laptop and started to see what exactly he could find out about Chris. If Chris lied about having a Daughter, Alejandro knew he was lying about other things too.


We're going to stop it here. I added my own little parts here and there to make it different from the show. Next chapter I'm going to have Heather in school and we're going to see what Trent found out and if Heather will use the burner phone. I'm a big Chris fan so part of me wants him to just take her and take the fuck off. Well the new season starts in March and I'm excited that it got renewed and can't wait to see what happens. It looks like in the story, Alejandro is sticking around and I'm going with Alejandro/Heather/Duncan triangle here. I'll see you guys next chapter!
