The Whole Truth

"You said another child. There isn't a first child.."

"I know there isn't a first child. I didn't say that. Daniel, let's just call it a night."

"I'm not going anywhere until you tell me the truth."

"Truth? There's nothing you need to know." She stood up and gathered her night gown from the floor then went in the bathroom. Daniel followed her and grabbed her waist to turn her around. He kept his hands on her waist. Wilhelmina refused to look at him but instead stared at the floor.

"Tell me."

"Tell you what?"

"Were you pregnant with my child?"

"No." She said as she shook her head.

"Look at me." He tilted her chin up, her eyes didn't give away any emotion that he needed and he sighed

"Was I right? Is Beau mine?"

In reply to his question, Wilhelmina pulled herself away from Daniel and walked back to the bedroom without saying anything, but just from that action, he knew the answer. She would never walk out on him to question like that – she would have denied it easily if it wasn't true. Yes, she might have done days ago, but that was different. Tonight she was the Wilhelmina Daniel had 10 years ago.

"Why didn't you tell me?" he asked coming from the bathroom, he stayed there – at the same spot where Wilhelmina left him.

"Because he isn't." She covered herself on the bed and closed her eyes. She then felt a hand on her shoulder forcing her to face the opposite direction. She knew it was Daniel so she just kept her eyes closed, telling him that she would deal with him some other time.

"We'll talk now... Not later, not tomorrow, not anytime. Now Wilhelmina!" She grunted and pushed him off the bed.

"Go away."

"Damn it Willie." He stood up and paced around the room. He stopped several times to look at her, he knew she was just waiting for him to leave, but he wasn't going to let that happen. He wanted to know the truth about his child (Beau) that she hasn't told him about and he's going to find the answer now. And not some other time.

Wilhelmina heard the door knob being opened and then closed. She thought it would be Daniel, no one would go in the room at that time. She sat to look at the spot where Daniel stood, only to be surprised that he was still there. He looked at her seriously.

"We are going to talk." She frowned and turned away.

"If you pretend to sleep again, forgive me for this, but I will jump on you."

"Tomorrow Daniel."

"Now."

"It's not as easy as you think it is Daniel."

"Of course it's not, how could you kept for so long if it was so easy right?" he started pacing the room again.

Wilhelmina now say up on the bed, her head in her hands.

"Beau."

"He's my kid" he said and looked at her. She was looking at him too, she looked defeated.

"I didn't know how to tell you Daniel. I won't say the cliché, 'I never wanted this to happen' because I actually did want it to happen." She said while walking towards him, she stood in front of him.

"You're doing great explaining yourself by the way.." he sarcastically said.

"Don't reply with sarcasm Daniel, you wanted the truth, I'm giving you them"

"Right. I'm sorry."

"I absolutely hated you when you got me pregnant, that's why I didn't tell you and left."

"Why didn't you abort it if you hated me?" he touched her forearm gently.

"Because somewhere in my fucking heart, I still felt something. And I left the country to clear my mind. I needed to think, and as you can see I made my mind up and kept the baby."

"Are you going to tell Beau?"

"I don't know."

"You know. I can see it in your eyes. You know what you want to do." He put one hand on his cheek as he looked down on the floor.

"I think it's better to keep it to ourselves."

Daniel sat slowly on the bed and sighed deeply, he was finding it hard to try to keep the tears falling from his eyes. He wanted to cry so bad to show what mess she caused him.

"Daniel." She sat on his side and touched his hand.

"I know I should hate you, but I don't." He said leaning on her shoulder.

She shook her head, "I don't believe you... Of course you hate me, how can you not. I didn't have the guts to tell you about your son."

"You can't tell me what to feel." He laughed bitterly. Wilhelmina crossed her arms.

"Then how do you feel about me?" she bravely asked.

"Remember what I told you 10 years ago, May 7th 1999."

"Kind of." She turned away.

"Well, let me remind you again." He got up and took her hands in his and knelt down. She shook her head with a smile, knowing what was going to come.

"I know you hate people who express their feelings, especially towards you. But I can't let my feelings for you stay in here, " he pointed to his heard, "because I'm afraid that it's too strong that I can feel it eating me all up." He laughed at his words.

"Still as cheesy as ever." She slowly smiled and he got up to kiss her, until they fell on the bed.

"Daniel." He kissed her harder.

"Daniel!" she said in between kisses, but he wasn't listening.

"Danny!" he stopped to stroke her face.

"You called me Danny."

"I... Yes I did."

"So, does this mean that we're something again?" he looked at her with a goofy smile.

"We'll discuss." She smiled suggestively and Daniel reached to turn the lamp off, leaving them with a dark bedroom. Wink, wink.

"Good morning mom." Nico said as she entered the kitchen. "You got lost again or something?"

"Oh. Nico.. No, just helping with breakfast." She smiled.

"Right..." Nico reached for the orange juice in the fridge and poured some in her glass.

"How did you sleep?" asked Wilhelmina while flipping some pancakes.

"Fine. Mom, are you feeling okay?" she walked closer and placed her hand on her mom's forehead.

"I'm good. Nothing wrong with cooking breakfast once in a while."

"Sure. But I mean you're Wilhelmina Slater, you don't even eat breakfast, so why cook it? There's something going on," she raised her brows and smiled, "And that something is 'inspiring' you to do all this." She winked and leaned on the counter.

"Like what?"

"Like you and Daniel are back together?" she said innocently, but Wilhelmina saw right through her.

"Nico!" she gasped but smiled.

"I know mom... Pfft, if you didn't want me to know you two could have kept it a little quiet last night." Wilhelmina shook her head, while she put the cooked pancake in a plate.

"He knows."

"Oh.. So you finally told him."

"Yes."

"What did he say?" she asked leaning back on the counter.

"He said he doesn't hate me." She looked at Nico confused.

"Oh my God mother! That guy loves you... Still loves you." She added.

"Yes, but that doesn't mean that we're not Wilhelmina Slater and Daniel Meade, so there shouldn't be something there. We're two different people now."

"It would be good for Beau. Mom, he needs a dad and Daniel is so willing to be there for him."

"I'm not telling Beau..." she received a glare from Nico.

"Well, not yet anyway."

"He's gonna find out sooner or later. You can't keep him out of the media forever."

"You're right, but he's too young for all this crap."

"Mom, he'll be fine." She smiled as she put a hand on Wilhelmina's shoulder, Willie looked at it and put her hand on top of Nico's.

"Good morning." Daniel entered the kitchen. Wilhelmina and Nico were both startled, Nico shook her head with a smile while looking at Daniel.

"I'll leave you two for a while." She walked out. It was an awkward silence after Nico left.

"Mornin' beautiful." He wrapped his arms around her waist while looking at her. She was still focused on her cooking. He kissed her cheek.

"So, we're back to being enemies now?" he asked slightly angry.

"I told you, we'll discuss."

"When?"

"Later. Not now, someone might walk in and see us."

"Why do you care so much? This is your house." He looked at her confused and slightly annoyed.

"Can you please let go of me, I need to bring this to Beau..." Daniel's face went from smiling to a little uncomfortable. He remembered about the truth, that Beau was his son.

"You can do it if you want." She offered. Daniel shook his head and put a hand on her back, pushing her to go.

"No, you go." He said before turning to leave, Wilhelmina watched him. She looked down and sighed.
