((Okay people... you need to read like the last five chapters!!! Also pic is Bryce^^^))

So last night I went to sleep I woke up about two times because I have a child named Myles. The third time I woke up it was about 7:15, so I thought 'Sky, how about we just stay up?' so I said 'inner self I think thats a goodish idea. Im so crazy.' thats when the song Mad Hatter by Melanie Martinez came to mind.

I started to play it and didnt know that I started to sing it. I heard some crying and knew my son was up again.

"Hey MyMy. Good morning." i said and got him out of his bed. I carried him out to the kitchen and sat him in his seat. I was feeding him when I heard Blake's phone go off.

"Hello?" I answered his phone.

"Hi? This doesnt sound like my boss." some guy answered.

"No. This is Skyler." I was completely confused.

"Oh. Well I need to speak to Blake. Is he there?"

"Yes but he's asleep right now. Who is this?"

"Lets just say im a friend. Go wake him up and tell him its Bryce." then Myles started to cry.

"Crap. Ok. Ill tell him just give me a minute. I have to handle my baby. Sorry." I said

"Your what?" I heard him say before I put the phone down.

"Here. Lets go wake up daddy." I said to Myles. I put the phone back to my ear. "Sorry im about to get him."

"Ok. I didnt know he had a kid."

"Neither did he until yesterday but I'll let him explain that." I put Myles on the bed and let him crawl to Blake.
He groaned when Myles had put his hand on his face. I kicked the matress.

"Get up Blake." I said. Me and Myles poked his face. He woke up after a few minutes.

"Good morning." he groaned. I handed him the phone.
"Its Bryce. He called." I said and he snatched it out of my hand and walked away. "Well I feel loved. Lets go eat MyMy." I picked him up and carried him to the kitchen. Again.
Before I walked out of the room I over heard Blake say something. Something very odd.

What did it mean?

Why is he so secretive about it?

These questions were begging for an answer. He finally came down fully dressed and walking towards the door.

"Blake? Is everything ok?" I asked. He pushed me away. Literally. "Blake what the heck!? Whats wrong?" I yelled. I dont want Myles or Summer to grow up without a father. I cant handle this.

"Im sorry but I have something to handle. And before you ask you cant come. Ill be back later." he said. Apparently he didnt just push me into a wall. Note sarcasm.

"Ok. You have a key. Be back within three hours or im looking for you." I said and he nodded.

I just went back into the kitchen and made some food for Summer and fed Myles.
"Myles. Your father his being a meany. He keeping secrets." he just slapped at his trey. "Yea. I feel like slapping him too." I smiled. He gets me so well.

Summer came down the stairs and i handed her the plate and fork so she could eat.
"Blake will be back in a little bit." i told her and she sighed looking a bit sad.

***Blake POV***

My dad passed away about a month or two after me and Sky broke up. He taught me everything I needed to know within the two years I was with him. I went to visit him about three years ago and came back and now I have to take a thirty minute drive because there is a meeting.

I got there and walked in. I got a bunch of 'hey boss' and some nods. I walked into my room soon Bryce came in.

"We need to talk." he said.

"What about?" I asked.

"Well first we have a mission at about 9:00 tonight, but before we go into that. We need to talk about your son."

"Look, Bryce, I know. I didnt know I had a kid untill yesterday. Sky only called me and said I had to be there. So I went. It was a surprise to me. I know what I have to do, but I have to tell her first."

"Man. I know its like great for you but also terrifying. But you do have a choice. You can leave and have your family in danger or you can stay, raise your son into this horrible life, and have your family in danger?" he said and I just groaned.

"Your not helping, Bryce." I know what could happen if I left but I dont know if leaving or staying is worse. Theres no telling.

We talked about the guy we are supposed to get some money from and how we were gonna get it. Then I had to go so I didnt have Sky sniffing the air for me.

I got home and saw that Alice was on the coutch whatching tv with Summer.

"Where's Myles and Sky?"

"Myles is asleep upstairs and Sky went out. She said she went to eat." she answered.

I walked upstairs and called her.

"Hello?" she answered.

"Hey babe. Where are you?" I asked relieved to see shes alive.

"Im getting food at the store. Didnt Alice tell you?" she answered.

"Yea. Just wanted to make sure." I heard Myles crying so I went to see him. "Hey bud." I smiled at him and he smiled back.

"Well im at the check out line. Bye. Love you."

"Love you too baby." then we hung up and I let Myles fall back asleep. About twenty minutes later Sky came home and I helped her put everything away.

"We need to talk." she said to me. Fuck she over heard me.

"Talk about what?" I asked her.
"Dont play dumb, Blake. Im talking about your gang." she was getting a little angry. I just sighed and nodded.

***Sky POV***

I knew Alice had left because the door closed. I would be calling her later.

". . . So my dad tought me everything I needed to know. Then he died a few months after we broke up. I became the gang leader. Then I found I have a son. Sky I have some bad news." this is when I start acually listening.

"1. Im sorry for your loss. Its late but its true. 2. Im all ears." I said. He smiled at me.

"Thanks and well. I um. I told the gang and I can either leave it and put all of us in danger or I can stay and put us in less danger. I dont want to but I have to stay in. Its only for your protection." he said sadly.
