Flynn POV

I need to calm myself down.

I hate using language like that infront of Oceane, but I had to do something else I would of flipped a table.

"Sorry Angel, Sorry Ms Sambello... It's a lot to take in." With my free hand I rubbed my head.

"Are you two..?" She looked between us both.

"Dating? Yeah." I winced and shut my eyes as I continued to rub my temples.

"Well I never. A Smith and a Winters." She smiled slightly at both of us.

"That's weird to see seeing as I remember you two running around as kids together. I bet you're mother was shocked." She grinned.

"Actually we only started dating a year ago, officially." Oceane said.

"I'm sorry sweetheart..." Vanessa said

"May you excuse us a minute?" I said as I got up. Vanessa nodded and I took Oceane to the most quiet place.

The disabled toilets.

We went inside and I locked the door behind us.

My emotions took over and I kissed her deeply and intensely. I felt her become weak in my arms so I lifted her up and she wrapped my legs about my waist as we fell into one of the walls. "Flynn..." I kissed down her neck and moved her straps down her shoulder. I could feel her nails against my back,

But I loved it.

I stopped and pulled away.

Out of breath I said "We both needed that, didn't we?" She smiled and bit her lip. "More than you'll ever know." She grabbed my shirt neckline and pulled me in again.

We left the toilet after we adjusted ourselves and Oceane said "Sorry, he just needed to vent to someone." She could tell we were both much happier. "Mm. Okay kids. Is there anything else you want to say?"

"Yeah, one last thing. Danny is marrying my sister." I said.

Oceane nearly choked on her water.

"Flynn!" She said with a cough.

"What? You don't know when we'll get this opportunity again." I smirked at her and she did that sexy eye roll of hers.

Don't ask me how an eye roll can be sexy. When she does it, it just is.

"Daniel is marrying Emma Winters?" Vanessa said with the key emphasis on winters.

"I knew he was marrying an Emma, but Emma Winters?" She was in clear shock.

"My question is, how come none of us remember growing up with Danny and Tonie?" Oceane asked.

"Oh that's quite simple. They didn't go to public school. They went private and boarding. Because of Micheal's work. They were around, but were always called Daniel and Antonio. Never Danny and Tonie until they left home. Now, I need to know, why are you coming to see me now?"

"Well you see.. we know that has a vendetta with John." I said

Oceane mumbled under her breath "Flynn..." And rubbed her head

Oceane POV

"Oh that was just something he said. He would never act on it! You see Daniel was home the week Micheal died, he saw John leave the apartment building and Micheal at the bottom. He added two and two together."

I looked at Flynn and watched his lips curl.

Don't tell her
Don't tell her
Don't tell her

"He has acted on it." Flynn said
"Ugh." I placed my head on the table. I could feel Vanessa's eyes on me.

"What do you mean?" She asked

"Danny wants us to suffer for the wrong going of our parents. For Elta telling Martha who told Micheal which ended up in his death, Martha for telling Micheal and John for having the child and killing his father."

I lifted my head up to see Vanessa's face of complete shock.
I leaned over and whispered in Flynn's ear. "Flynn stop. We don't know if we can trust her. You said to be weary of people we befriend. We need to go." I gripped his hand and he looked at me with his pale eyes.

"I think it's best if I say no more." He gave me a side glance and I nodded slowly.

"Oh... I mean, I guess I understand. What do you want me to do?" She asked.

"Well, for starters tell him nothing of us talking to you today. We just needed some clarification some things."

"Can I just say, it was amazing to meet you both. The daughter of Elta Smith and the son of Martha winters. I'm sorry about your mother, Oceane. I really am. Flynn, trust me, one time, even if it was a long time ago, John did love your mother." I saw her eyes began to fill with tears once more.

"Thank you, Vanessa. Just know what ever happens in the future is happening for a reason." I told her. I mean to say that if Danny ends up... dead or in prison.

We had reasons.

We said our adieux and with that we left.

Flynn POV

I'm glad Oceane kept me on my feet. I was getting too carried away. I just want this mess to be  over with so im will to do what it takes.

As we sat down on the train, we barely said a word.

"Sorry." I said. I knew I had took it to far...

She looked out the window and didn't acknowledge my words.

A few moments had passed when she said. "The last time... the last time I revealed anything about this situation. You nearly died. I nearly lost you, Flynn. I nearly lost Drew, I nearly died. All because I trusted Max a little to much." She kept looking out the window.

What am I supposed to say to that?

"Do you remember, in the winter of 2009 when we went ice skating?" I said.

"Emma and yourself glided across the ice with so much ease. Then there was me like a dear who was trying to walk?" I  saw her mouth relax slightly.

"I tried to get up. and I went flying across the ice into the other children?" She smiled and closed her eyes.

"Is that a smile I see?" I teased her.

She turned around and wrapped her arms around me. I heard her giggle over my shoulder. I held onto her that bit tighter.

"I love you." She said.

"I love you more." I smiled.

"Not possible."
