"Oh my God." I mutter as I put my hands on my head. Why is Ward here? Why is he even alive?

"Hey, kid." Ward smiles.

I don't say anything back, I try to run out of the door. Ward quickly grabs me and pins me against the wall. "Let me go!" I shout.

"Shut up and I'll let you go." He reasons. I hesitate before nodding, he lets me go. "Sit down." He says after a few moments of silence.

I sit down with an angry look on my face. "Why am I here? Why did your wife drug me? Why the fuck are you alive?" I ask a billion questions.

"Let me answer one question at a time." Ward lets out an obvious fake laugh. I nod at him to carry on with his explanation.

"To answer your first question, you're here because Rafe wanted you here." He simply answers.

"Why would Rafe want me here?" I ask with furrowed brows. "We haven't talked in forever." I continue quickly.

"I dunno, maybe because you were with Sarah, or maybe because he still has a thing for you- I'm not sure." Ward shrugs. I am not gonna believe a word this guy says, I just can't.

"Ok, now answer the rest of my questions." I say with annoyance laced in my voice.

"My wife did not drug you-" he tries to lie.

"That's bullshit, she literally showed me the bottle of pills, but ok." I angrily mutter.

"You wouldn't have gotten on the ship— she had to." Ward defends Rose's actions.

"You're right, so why would you even try to lie?" I ask with an unamused look on my face.

"I'm just doing what my son wants." He answers.

"And you're also doing what you want, you're selfish, everyone knows it." I quickly snap.

"I'm gonna stop you right there- I'm not selfish, I'm keeping my family together." He shakes his head as he holds his finger up.

"Yeah, a family that doesn't love you." I spit out at him.

He closes his eyes and sighs, I can tell I'm getting him mad. "What was your last question?" He asks, trying to calm himself down.

"Why the fuck are you alive." I quote.

"Im not leaving my family, you clearly haven't been paying attention. Everything I do is for my family— my son did not kill Pete for no reason, and I didn't kill Gavin for no reason. Im not letting my family take the repercussions because of me." He answers, trying to sound like a hero.

"You're not a hero." I say as I cross my arms and lean back into the couch.

"I never said I was." Ward quickly fires back.

"You're acting like it." I respond quickly.

It goes quite for a few moments and we just glare at one another. "Are those all the questions that you have for me?" He breaks the silence with an annoyed shrug.

"No." I shake my head. "When can I see the pogues and my parents?" I question.

"You can see Sarah soon, and you can call the pogues when we get to the island. I'll talk to your parents about it, I know that they won't miss you." He says, clearly trying to get me even more pissed than I already am.

"They may not miss me but at least they don't murder people for fun." I smile sarcastically.

"I don't murder people for fun, I already explained myself." Ward shoots back.
