Chapter 3 the discovery
" Dan, Jenny, what are you doing here?" Rufus asked them while I hid in the bathroom. His kids didn't exactly know everything that was going on between us and it might be a shock for me to walk out of his room in nothing but his robe.
" Well you seemed upset last night and we just couldn't leave you alone on Christmas," Dan said.
" Yeah dad," Jenny agreed, " mom said she understood we'll go there after Christmas, you need us right now."
"Actually I'm not completely alone today," Rufus said. I thought this might be the signal to come out of hiding, but I was in no mood to deal with an awkward situation. If he wanted me to come he would just have to come in and get me.
" What does that mean I thought you said you could never be with Lily. Did you meet someone last night that we don't know about?" Dan seemed to be concerned.
" Wow wait pause and rewind Lily another person what is going on here?" Jenny asked suspiciously.
" Relax everyone I was with Lily all night there's no one else that's the story for the most part," Rufus explained.
" Where is she now then? Hiding in the closet?" Dan asked sarcastically. Oh no, I had been discovered. This was it I was with Rufus now but there were still a lot of things to be explained and figured out.
" Close," Rufus said, " she's in the bathroom."
" Lily it's ok to come out now!" Rufus shouted. I slowly made my way out. I was dressed in nothing but his flannel robe. I looked as if I had been in a train wreck, which in some ways was true. It took all my will power to enter that room with Dan and Jenny, standing there in shock.
" What the heck is going on!" Jenny was freaking out.
" Yeah I have to agree with Jenny on that one, I'm really confused," Dan stated.
" Don't worry it's a very long story but you'll know everything eventually," Rufus explained.
