The Takeover

Chapter 39

"I haven't seen or spoken to you since high school."

"Our time together was brief. You weren't wanting a relationship and you never seemed to stick around anywhere long."

"We have nothing in common. I have my marriage. I'm going to be a father. If Peyton brought you here claiming something else."

"She isn't to be trusted. I finally know where i belong."

"Can the past stay buried. I have alot going on.?" Lucas questioned.

"Sure. Say no more. I heard about you're mom."

"I'm sorry. It hurts when you lose people you love. Especially when you don't see it coming." Nikki said.

"Thank you and it does. I hope you found some peace of mind. Happiness. Love." Lucas replied.

"I guess you can say i found some of that." Nikki said.

"What person do we have in common?" He questioned.

"You're father. He wants to repair the damage he caused and have a relationship with you."

"He's given me a life i never imagined. I know he has alot of regret guilt shame regarding the history you share with him." Nikki explained.

Lucas was taken off guard hearing this.

"When Dan killed Keith. He destroyed any chance at us having a relationship. Dan's been dead to me a long time now."

"I'm sorry you wasted a trip here." Lucas replied.
