A/N: Thanks for all the reviews!

Disclaimer: i do not own a thing except for Adam and Kyle.

Oliver stumbled into the kitchen as the phone started to ring. He fumbled around the counter looking for it. He found it and answered it. "Hello?" He asked still being half-asleep.

"Mr. Oken?" The voice questioned.

"Speaking." He replied.

"This is Mrs. Sandras, from Social Services."

"Hey!" Oliver exclaimed, suddenly being fully awake. "Is there a problem?" He asked.

"We have heard from some of your neighbors that you," She paused. Oliver knew that she was trying to think of the word that she wanted to use. "That you have been drinking excessivly." She finally said. "This isn't good Mr. Oken," Oliver cut her off.

"It was an accidental one time thing!" He lied. "Some of my old friends from college were in town and well we went out and I might of gotten a little drunk." He continued. "But Kyle wasn't there with me, I... uh... had a friend of mine since high school watch him." He finished. "It won't happen again! I promise!"

"Well, if you say that it was once and that it won't happen again, everything will be okay." Mrs. Sandras started, "But if we come to learn that you are drinking more then just occasionaly then we will have no choice but to remove Kyle from your house and life."

"I understand perfectly." Oliver replied.

"Thank you for your time Mr. Oken." The social worker hung up and so did Oliver.

"Thank goodness I didn't have a hang over today." He whispered to himself.

A few hours later the doorbell to Oliver's house rang. Kyle got up from watching TV and ran and looked out the window of the front door. He saw his dad's friend who just happened to be his favorite one of all the ones he had met. Oliver walked up behind Kyle shortly after he had made it to the door. Kyle turned around and looked up him and smiled. He was excited to see his father's friend.

Oliver looked out and saw the two people standing outside. He unlocked the top lock, that he had put in so Kyle couldn't run out into the street or something, and the dead bolt. "Hey Lilly and Adam." He greeted the two. "What brings you guys here?" He asked.

"We just wanted to drop by and say hey." Lilly answered.

"Yeah, so hey!" Adam exclaimed which was followed by a look from Lilly. "What?" He questioned.

"Hey there Kyle!" Lilly greeted the small one who was standing by his dad's leg.

Kyle smiled back making it the biggest smile he had ever given to anyone.

"So do you guys want to come in?" Oliver asked.

"Yeah that would be nice." Lilly answered.

She and Adam followed Oliver into the kitchen as Kyle ran ahead of them.

"Can I get you guys something to drink?" Oliver offered after entering the kitchen.

"Do you have water?" Adam asked.

Oliver blinked. "Yeah, I have water."

"Cool." Adam replied. "Can I have some?"

"Sure. You can have some water." Oliver replied. He walked over to the cabinet and got out a glass for Adam's water. "Do you want anything Lilly?"

"No, I'm fine." She replied. She watched as Oliver opened his fridge to fill up the glass of water. "Why do you have all that beer?" She asked Oliver.

Oliver stopped. He didn't move from the fridge. He had to think of another lie and quick. "Um... My... College buddies were in town the other night and one of them left some here." He answered quickly while handing Adam his water.

"If you say so." Lilly answered. A silence fell over the room and for the first it wasn't an awkward one. "So, who's Kyle's mom?" Lilly asked, breaking the silence.

Oliver knew he couldn't avoid the subject anymore. He turned and looked at Kyle who was just sitting on the floor up against the wall. "Hey Kyle!" He exclaimed in a 'happy' voice. "Do you want to go and watch Blues Clues?" Kyle nodded his head 'yes' and got up from his spot and ran to the living room to watch his favorite show.

Oliver fell silent and looked at his friend and his friend's boyfriend. He sighed. "It was a very short marriage." He started. "Her name was Rose and she had long blond hair and green eyes with specs of blue in them," He continued only to be interrupted.

"Hey! She sounds like she looked like you Lilly!" Adam exclaimed.

"Adam!" Lilly replied, "Let Oliver tell his story!"

"Sorry." Adam replied.

Oliver continued. "We were only freshmen when we eloped... I think we were both somewhat drunk at the time because a week or so after she had it annulled. I didn't even know about Kyle until he came here, if I had I would have protested the annulment instead of letting it go through."

"Well, how do you know that Kyle's your son?" Adam asked. "I mean, it could be someone else's son."

"I thought that too when Social Services showed up and well, I had them do some DNA testing and he is my son." Oliver answered.

"Wow." Lilly whispered. "Do you know what happened to Rose?" She asked.

"Social Services won't tell me anything about what happened to her." Oliver stated. "They say if Kyle wants to tell me then he can but seeing as he doesn't talk," Oliver finished.

"Yeah," Lilly replied.

Another silence fell in the room this time it was awkward.

"Um... We need to get going." Adam suddenly said. "Thanks for the agua!" He exclaimed as he and Lilly made their way out of Oliver's house.

Oliver nodded and closed the door behind them. He sighed and for the first time he thought about his lifestyle and habits.

A/N: Well, you know what to do now!
