Sophia's POV
"Dec, are you my real dad? I asked, close to tears.
"Yep, I'm your real dad and I lied about Clare cheating on me." He said, looking at the floor. I couldn't believe it. Dec was my real dad? Am I supposed to be happy or am I supposed to hate his guts about this?
"Am I supposed to tell everyone, am I supposed to be happy or hate you?" I asked not knowing what to do in this situation.
"I don't know." Said Dec, still looking at the floor.
"You obviously are really helpful." I said, thinking hard about this.
"What do you want me to do?" Asked Dec.
"I honestly could slap you right now but I can't because unfortunately your my dad." I said.
"Maybe we should take a DNA, just to be sure?" He asked.
"That's a good idea!" I say.
"So shall we go now?" He asks.
"I'm being sarcastic! What do we say to them?! Oh I think Dec is my dad so we're just going to take a DNA test!" I say.
"Wait we don't even need an DNA test because I know for a fact your my daughter." He says.
"Exactly! I'm going to my better mum and dad and we never speak of this ever again." I say as I go down stairs."
"I won't tell anyone at all." He says.Ant's POV
It was great to be back home with my wife and daughter. I couldn't wait for are other child to be born and for Sophia to become a big sister!
"Daddy!" Said Sophia as she ran to me for a massive hug and I hugged her back.
"I've missed you so much!" I told her as she got comfortable next to me.
"I've missed you to daddy!" She said. I was about to get up to get a snack Dec came in.
"I have some to say." He said.
"Ok then, what is it." I asked.
"Well, Clare didn't cheat on me, you see, when she became pregnant with Sophia, I said I wasn't ready for kids so I left her and then I saved her in the fire, but Clare died in that." He said. Me, Ashely and Lisa looked at him.
"What the hell?" Said Lisa.
"Sophia is my daughter." He says.
"She can't be!" I shouted.
"She is!" Shouted Dec.
"Dec? Is this true?" Asked Ashely. I felt so sorry for the poor girl.
"Yep." Said Dec. Ashely ran out of the room crying and Lisa went after her. Bless her, I feel bad for her.
"So Sophia, come to daddy!" Said Dec. Am I actually dreaming right now! What makes Dec think that he can just take Sophia like that!
"Are you kidding me?!" I shouted.
"I'm not! I'm Sophia's real dad so she should come with me." Said Dec, trying to grab Sophia from me but Sophia held on tight to me.
"But you left Sophia and we adopted her, me and Lisa are her parents!" I shouted.
"But I'm her real dad!" He shouted. He managed to grab Sophia away from me and she started to cry.
"Get off me!" She cried to Dec.
"Dec, just give her back to me,you're making her cry." I shouted.
"It's ok, don't cry love, daddy's here." Said Dec as he comforted her in his arms. He stroked Sophia's hair and kissed her head.
"I want daddy!" Asked Sophia as she held out her arms to me.
"I am your daddy." Said Dec.
"Dec, just give her back please." I begged. Lisa and Ashely came back.
"Give her back." Cried Lisa.
"Declan, please!" I cried.
"Ouch!" Cried Lisa in pain holding onto her stomach. I had to go and help her out.3rd Person POV
"Give Sophia back to them!" Shouted Ashely.
"Listen love, if we leave now, we can have Sophia to ourselves! You can become her new mother!" Said Dec.
"Are you kidding me Dec! Sophia belongs to Lisa and Ant not you and me!" Said Ashely.
"You know what Ashely, you and me are over ok! You clearly shout at me all the time for no reason and you always think your right when your wrong!" Shouted Dec.
"Dec, no! Please don't do this to me!" Cried Ashely.
"Do you want to be with me or not!" Shouted Dec.
"Obviously I want to be with you!" Said Ashely.
"Then let's take Sophia to our house and raise her as our own!" Said Dec.
"Fine! Let's go before they notice!" Said Ashely they ran out of the house and went to Dec's house.
"Hey! Dec! Ashely! What the hell!" Shouted Ant as he ran out after them. Dec locked the door and Ant came knocking.
"Dec please! You don't know what you're doing!" Shouted Ant. Suddenly Ant got a message from Ashely saying that she will bring Sophia back when Dec isn't around. So he left.
"See Sophia, Ant left so that means that he doesn't want you anymore!" Said Dec.
"Does daddy not love me anymore?" Asked Sophia.
"I'm your daddy now!" Said Dec as he picked up Sophia.
"No you're not! I want mummy!" Cried Sophia.
"Ashely, Sophia wants you!" Said Dec.
"Ashely I want mummy!" Cried Sophia.
"Look, I'll give you back to mummy when Dec goes, ok?" Whispered Ashely into Sophia's ear. Sophia nodded....
