Pete's pov
Deanna and I were hanging out with her mom at the hospital. Liz and Pat were here too. But they were getting us all coffee.
Desire patted Deanna's hand saying, "You my girl. You're stronger then I could ever imagine. I mean look at you! Training to become a Seal Team 6 Sniper! Just promise you won't die before I do."
Deanna chuckled and kissed her forehead saying, "I won't mom. Promise." I reached for her hand and squoze it. She smiled and stood up saying,
"Excuse me for a second." She walked out of the room and her foot steps faded and Desire looked at me saying,
"Pete I know you love my daughter but please be careful with her. You think your lives are similar but they aren't. Patrick and Deanna; they don't know their real father. They are half brother and sister. I divorced her father for cheating on me. He got Patrick's mother pregnant/ Then he died. The man who pretended to be her father was my first ex husband. It was the only way to protect her. She's had such a rough life. Please make it easier for her."
Desire rested her hand on mine and I whispered, "I love her more then I ever thought I could love anyone. And I have no plans to hurt her." So the sicko who abused Deanna wasn't even her real dad? That's fucked up. The door opened and Trick and Liz came in. They had coffee and Deanna walked back in a few seconds later. She cracked her knuckles before saying,
"I need to leave in the morning so I should get going. Love you mom bye."
"Bye sweetie. Love you too," Desire smiled. I hugged her as did Liz and Trick. They left her her coffee and I laced my fingers with Deanna's as we walked out. She was staying with me and my mom tonight. Trick kept telling us to have safe sex and use a condom. Every time I went to punch his arm for saying it Deanna beat me too it. She also punches harder then me. It was really funny.
Patrick and Liz dropped us off at my house and I tugged Deanna inside who was texting someone and muttering random things to herself. I opened the door and yelled,
"Mom! I'm home! Brought Deanna with me!"
