Finding Dad

Secrets

"Jonas what the heck is wrong with you? What are you doing?" a confused Lily still siting on the couch asked. Jonas was standing looking threw his bag for Annabel's phone number he needed to hear from Kevin and fast. 

"It's complicated." Jonas looked faster Lily rolled her eyes behind his back.

"What time do your friends get home?" 

"Roommates not friends and they come at about-" 

"Lily were back!" a high pitched squeaky voice sounded as the door clicked open Jonas and Lily froze. A tall thin teenager with beach blonde hair walked in wearing some bright green booty shorts and a matching tiger striped tee shirt strutting knee high leather boots. After her came another girl but with dark brown hair pulled back in a pony tail and wearing a matching outfit but in pink and after her came a red head wearing a little yellow bikini.

Jonas was speechless when the blonde girl smacked a wad of cash on the coffee table with a smile. The others started to take their shoes off and gave Lily a triumphant smile as well. They were already cocky enough but when they saw Jonas things got ten times worse.

"Lil I didn't know you had a boyfriend" Lily and Jonas blushed and the red headed girl let out a high pitched laugh.

"Jonas this is Annie, Scarlet and Lexi" Lily looked down trying to hide her laughs as Lexi the blonde girl batted her eyes at Jonas Annie the brunette flicked her ponytail back and finally Scarlet the red head knocked something over on purpose just to have a excuse to bend over.

"Wow that's a lot of money!" Jonas picked the stack of cash up to feel it's weight.

"We work as entertainers." all three girls let out a laugh they sat down on the small couch where only moments ago Jonas was sitting on with Lily.

"Yeah poor dear Lily couldn't join us because of her leg problems." Lexi said while looking at her chipped nail polish.

"Yeah the clients don't need to see her fake I mean that would destroy our business.'' Scarlet twisted her long finger in her hair. 

"Jonas we should get going it's almost dark." you could tell Lily was choking back her tears by the sound of her voice Jonas heard it and felt bad for Lily having to let these girls make fun of her inconvenience.

"Jonas? Like Jonas King the runaway?" Annie's eyes perked up when she heard his name.

"No another Jonas, it was nice to meet you girls but Lily and I have to get some privacy." Jonas lied trying to avoid anymore questions from the three entertainers. Jonas put the cash lump down and reached for his bag. 

"Bye Jonas." chanted the girls as Jonas and Lily walked out the door. Jonas let out a small laugh only to trun to face a angered Lily.

"Why would we need privacy Jonas King?" Lily was red with rage and her fists where so tight from her grip her knuckles where white.

"I don't know I didn't need anymore questions from those three 'entertainers'." Jonas patted Lily's shoulder and started down the stairs.

"So where are we going now?" 

"Um I need someone's number but first we can pay the Brenton hotel a visit." Lily nodded eager to get away from her roommates and followed Jonas. 

A long walk and bus ride later Jonas and Lily were standing at the front desk of the Brenton Hotel. The manager, a short fat man, was falling asleep at his desk.

"Hello I need to ask you something." Jonas said in front of the tired manager.

"What? Oh how may I help you?" the manager awoke with a shock then calmed down.

"Has Blake King passed by here?" Jonas silently prayed in this head for the answer to be yes he's here right now. 

"He was here, he... checked out" the manager let out a yawn and signaled his goodbye then walked into the back office. 

"Sir! He's my..." Jonas started after the man who was being very rude. The door that read personal only slammed in his face, another disappointment.

"Dad." Jonas leaned his head on the door and let out the ending to his sentence. Lily who was searching the surface of the desk taped Jonas's bony shoulder.

"Hey look at this." Lily handed Jonas a slip of paper on the envelope it said B. King Jonas didn't hesitate to rip the paper out.

Sorry I must be so secretive but they are coming and looking for me, they won't settle for just finding me. I must keep my children safe me leaving was the best thing to do never will he understand but I did this for my son. If you stil disire to find me look in the back there's a clever story behind this.

-B.K

"No! Why?!" Jonas slapped his hand to his face and silently cursed his dad. 

"Jonas he said he did this for you... for your safety, Victoria's too." Lily tried to comfort Jonas but he just shut her out.

"Victoria is dead and I a'int far from it, leaving your kids abandoned in critical condition with nothing and no where to go is not a good choice especially if you want then safe." Jonas said coldly then he walked away from Lily from the Brenton, from everything.

"Where are you going?" Lily tried to follow Jonas but it was she was struggling with her leg it wasn't used to walking long distances.

"We need to sleep don't we!" Jonas snapped and he sat down on a bench outside the hotel Lily let out a sarcastic laugh.

"You're joking right?!"

"Good night Lily." Jonas closed his eyes and shut Lily's voice completely out he needed sleep because that was when he could see his mother again and right now he just needed love.

"Teddy what do you mean she's not mine!" Jonas was in his living room again this time the action was in the kitchen. He walked out of the living room into the large kitchen.

"I'm so sorry we were fighting and he was just always there." Jonas's heart broke to see his mother who was heavily pregnant in tears sitting at the breakfast table. His dad was by the stove on the other side of the room his work shirt wrinkled and hair messed up Jonas could see his dad's anger. 

"Teddy I love you you do know that?!"

"And I love you too I was being dumb please just pretend it never happened." 

"Teddy." Blake rubbed his tired face huffed he looked out the window unable to think straight.

"Blake please forgive me, I love you I really do." Teddy was begging and crying Jonas wanted to kill the moron who brought such anger to his home.

"Please tell me... is Jonas mine?" Blake truned to his wife Jonas stared at his mother waiting for a answer was the man he was looking for his dad?
