Elliot
I don't know what to feel or what to fucking do. How the fuck could she keep this from me? It just seems that every one I love always lets me down one way or another. I thought Ana was different only to find out she is worse. I don't even want to be around her. I know I may be making the biggest mistake of my life but I don't see another outcome.
"Elliot what the fuck man?" Luke asks and I didn't even see him there. I knew everyone is going to be pissed off with me one way or the other.
"I don't want to hear your bullshit Luke."
"Elliot you were way out of line with Ana."
"Don't fucking tell me what I was or was not. She kept this from me. All this time and not a word. That's a messed up thing to do Luke. I don't care if she is marring my brother she had no right to make that decision."
"That there is your problem. Not everything is about you Elliot. Do you think any of this is what she wanted? You think she done this because she was selfish and wanted to hurt you? Well if you do then you are a bigger asshole that I thought."
"Luke that is besides the point. She should have informed me the minute she knew."
"Elliot that was not possible. She is involved in the chain of evidence. There was no way for her to tell you without risking everything. This bullshit has been tearing Ana part for days now. I watched her interact with him and it was darn near heart breaking. Who do you think risked there job and asked Jose to look after him? Who do you think secretly filled there kitchen with food? Yes, she done all that when she should have just walked away. If word had leaked that Ana told you about him while the investigation was still open she would have been charged with corrupting the chain of evidence. Do you think Kate would have kept her trap shut about this? She has been after Ana for months now and this would have being the perfect revenge. Would it have made you feel better knowing Ana should have risked it and told you that he may be your son?"
"Luke I don't know what to think. This is all so fucked up."
"Yes it is but this is not Ana's fault. All she done was make a bad situation a little better for that little boy. She looked out for him and now has him staying with Alex. The way I see it she is the hero in all this. Is it her fault you fuck around so much you didn't even know you may have had a kid? Is it her fault his mother lied to you?"
"Fuck. I have to get back to town. We can sort all this out another time. I can't deal with this now." I say walking away feeling like shit. My whole world seems to be crumbling around me and I don't even know which way to turn.
Christian
I am pissed off at Elliot for the way he has treated Ana. I actually don't ever remember being this angry at him ever. No way would she have deliberately kept all this a secret just to hurt him. There has to be a good reason for all this. We have just landed in Seattle and it was the worst flight of my life. Elliot on one side of the plane sulking and Ana on the other typing away at her laptop. I can see this is eating away at Ana an it's killing me that there is not a thing I can do to help ease her pain.
"This is all fucking bullshit." Ana says out of the blue and we all stare at her. I have a feeling my baby has reached her limit. She gets up and stalks over to Elliot and it seems like they are just staring at each other till Elliot breaks the silence.
"Get the fuck away from me Ana. I am at my last nerve with you." He growls and I step forward to intervene but Taylor's hand on my arm stops me. I am not surprised Luke is close to Ana. I trust Elliot with my life and I know he would never hurt Ana but Luke is doing his job non-the less.
"Sir let her handle this. She can hold her own."
"I don't like it Taylor but you are right. I will fuck him up if he hurts her." I say sitting down close enough to hear them.
Ana
This is one huge disaster. My heart feels like its about to burst through my chest and my head is pounding. This was not how I envisioned my weekend ending. I have to make Elliot understand why I did all this. Now standing in front of him I am questioning myself because he refuses to even listen to me. I walk off to Christian's office and collect the papers I printed and walk back to Elliot. He is going to listen to me one way or another. I take a huge breath and pass him the background check I done on him with the letter Alex managed to get from the adoption agency.
"What the fuck is this?" He asks without looking at the papers.
"Read them and you will know." I spit back at him and to my surprise he flings the papers back at me and I let them fall to the floor. This was not the reaction I was expecting.
"I don't want to fucking read what's on there. If you have something to tell me then spit it the fuck out or go the fuck away." He says looking right at me. Now's my only chance. When I speak I can hear my voice is shaky but I have to do this.
"You are Elliot Grey, twenty nine years old. Your biological mother is Sammy and she was 12 when she was rapped and you and your twin brother is the result of that. She didn't want you or your brother so she gave you up for adoption. I can't seem to find any information on him. Sammy on the other hand is remarried with two kids and does not want you to ever contact her. Your biological father would have being 75 but he is deceased, he left behind four kids that also want nothing to do with you. One of those kids is an ex-sub of your brothers.
Judy Peterson was a woman you had a one-night stand with three years ago and the result of that affair was Tyler. You are not registered on his birth certificate but I managed to get her to admit it and she also signed legal paperwork naming you his father. She swore to me you knew about him and you told her to get rid of it, so it was not my place to interfere. All I could do was keep him safe and that's what I did. Jose put them up in a hotel but she managed to get hold of drugs and overdosed on Friday. I told him under no circumstances is he to put Tyler in the system so that's why he is with Alex. I have done everything I felt was right to protect him and I will not apologies for that. If any of what I did to protect him gets out I will not only loose my job but I will be facing criminal charged for interfering in an ongoing investigation. What should have happened was social services should have been called in and he should have being taken away and placed with another family. I was in the system and I would never want that for any child. You now know everything I do and it's your choice what you want to do with it." I don't bother looking at him and just walk off. That was a shit load of information for him to process and I know he is going to need time with it all.
"Baby are you ok?"
"No Christian I need to get out of here."
"Ok lets go. I don't have anything to say to him." I nod an okay and just hold onto Christian's hand. I know this is very hard for him to. There is no way I want to come between the two of them.
Taylor
We have just parked at Escala and everyone is on edge. Elliot has fucked things up with Ana and I am going to kick his ass for it. I can see she is barely holding onto her tears but is putting on a brave face. I spoke to Jose and he mentioned this could go badly for Ana if word gets out about her interfering in an open investigation.
As for the bitch and her crew they are getting off with not even a warning. Elena knew how to cover her bases and that puts me on even higher alert. Not a single fingerprint could be matched up to Ana's drugged plate. Her little sub slaves are also all in the clear as far as the law is concerned. The bitch and her crew may have gotten away with this attempt to harm Ana but I can guarantee it wont happen again and I am going to make sure of it.
We get to Alex's floor and the tension in the lift is sickening. As soon as we all attempt to exit Elliot steps out the lift and blocks the exit. He looks directly at Ana and shocks the fuck out of me once again.
"I don't want you anywhere near my son until I sort this shit out." He spits at Ana and I can see the boss is barely holding onto his control. I'm not sure how much more he can handle but Ana has begged him not to interfere.
"Elliot stop being a fucking asshole. None of this is Ana's fault." The boss shouts and I can tell we have just made a scene when Alex's apartment door opens and he steps out with a miniature version of Elliot next standing to him. Oh shit. There is no doubt that his father is Elliot. I don't wish to be Elliot at this time. I watch as his eyes drop to the kid and his breathing increases. This must be hard.
"Is that him Alex?" He asks in a very unlike Elliot voice.
"Ana are you ok?" Alex asks ignoring Elliot and now I know Luke called him before we arrive. He is definitely getting a bonus for this.
"I'm sorry Alex but I need to go." Ana says stepping out of the lift and sprinting towards the emergency stairwell. Her fingers just touch the handle when the most heartbreaking sound fills the corridor.
"Ms. Ana don't leave me again. Please." Tyler sobs and I see every muscle in her back tense but it does cause her to stop.
"That's the first time he has spoken." Alex says and I see the surprise on Elliot's face.
"What do you mean Alex?"
"Tyler does not talk at all, well at least that's what we thought. Jose mentioned he couldn't be touched either." Alex says and I see the pain on the boss's face. He is thinking about when he was a little boy. I stay quiet as I watch the scene unfold in front of us. Ana turn around and I can see there is no way she can stop the flood of tears running down her cheeks. She walks right pass Elliot and without hesitation drops to her knees in front of Tyler and I can see the joy on his face. I don't think Elliot is going to get his wish. This kid had attached himself to Ana and there is nothing that's going to change his mind.
