Chapter number 35. Do you remember?...
"I swear to you Peter I had nothing to do with any of it" Lara promised in a panic. She'd come into Peter's office right after the computer guy had left, and now she wished she hadn't come in.
"Yeah and I believe you" Peter told her, looking her in the eye and, pulling her into him, holding her close to him, "You don't have to prove anything to me, I know you wouldn't do that" he said warmly.
"Thank you" she whispered softly.
"That's ok, I just wish I could get my hands on the mongrel that set you up like this" he told her, placing a kiss on the top of her head that was rested just below his left shoulder.
"Yeah me too".

"So he never knew you existed?" Rose asked the thirteen year old girl who'd introduced herself as Danielle.
"No" Danielle told her shaking her head, "by the time Mum found out she was pregnant with me he'd already taken off" she sighed looking up at Rose who was sitting next to her on the cream lounge in the middle of the large family room.
"What she didn't even try looking?" Rose said, so far she was having trouble buying this girls story, even though the times and places all seemed to make sense.
"Yeah of course she tried looking, but she had no idea where to find him, and by the time I came along she had her hands full" Danielle explained, seeming honest and genuine.
"Look Danielle, I'm sorry, but I'm having a really hard time trying to believe all this" Rose said honestly, taking in a deep breath.
"I know it's sudden, but I've lived with my mum my whole life, and I really just want to at least know my dad" she said desperately.
Rose just sighed and nodded, trying to put on a smile, "he should be home soon. Speaking of which, that's probably him now" she told her as a car could be heard out side.
"Honey I'm home" Boyd's voice called as he slammed the door behind him.
"Up here" Rose called back to him.
Boyd made his way up the stairs on the left side of the entry way of the house and when he reached the top he saw not only his wife, but a teenage girl who looked a lot like someone he once knew. "Who's this?" he asked, not meaning to sound rude.
Right at that moment Izzy cried out and Rose hopped up, I'll leave her to explain" she told him before going down the stairs that he's just come up and down the second stair case that was next to it, bypassing the entry way.
"Sorry if I sounded rude before" Boyd apologized.
"It's ok" she smiled, "So I guess your still wondering who I am?"
"Yeah".
"My names Danielle" she began, but then a questioning look came upon her and she suddenly seemed more serious, "do you remember dating a girl named Janae Timmins?"
"Yeah" Boyd said slowly, some how he didn't like where this was heading, it was obvious that the girl was related to Janae, she looked so much like her, she had the same blond curly hair, the same smile, but... different eyes. "What's this got to do with who you are?" he asked curiously.
"Just after you left her" she started, "she found out that she was pregnant... with me" she explained, looking for any reaction in his face, she was more scared than ever, normally she was confident and not worried about consequences of her actions, but this was something she'd been dreaming of for her whole life, she wanted to know her dad.
Boyd just looked in shock, that was his daughter... his, teenage daughter...
Sorry it's short, I've still had a lot of school work, I'll try my best to write more when I've got 2 or more reviews.
