Chapter Nine: Father Figures

The House of The Dead............................

"What are we doing here, Tall Boy?" I asked with my arms crossed.

"Sit down, kids." Tall Boy told us.

"I like standing, thanks." I told him.

"We have business to discuss." He told us.

"Tall Boy, what the hell is this? Where are we?" Jug asked.

"You're in my house." Malachi chuckled, revealing himself. "It's the House of the Dead." He then looked at me, "Hey, Sweetheart."

"Well, I'm sorry, who the hell are you?" Jughead asked.

"Take it easy, Jughead. Malachi speaks for the Ghoulies. The heat on us and our ranks depleted, our tribes need to unite, and that's gonna be easier to do if you two endorse this partnership." Tall Boy told us.

"Why us?" Jug asked.

"You two are FP's kids." He told us.

"Um. What?" I asked confused. "Jughead, yes but I don't know who my father is."

"Fuck." Tall Boy said.

"Thanks, for that Tall Boy. I have to go, Jughead, let me know what happens." I told them before leaving. I got on Sweet Pea's bike, he stuffed the keys in my pocket when we got to the school and I didn't want to leave it there, I went to my mother's trailer. She was there. I got off the bike and pounded on the trailer door.

"What do you want?" Penny hissed at me.

"Why the fuck didn't you tell me FP was my father?!" I hissed back at her. "The only father figure I ever had actually turns out to be my father, that is just fucking great."

"Who told you?!" She asked.

"Tall Boy let it slip. He told me and Jughead that he needed Jughead and I to endorse a partnership between us and the ghoulies." I told her, pissed.

"Well, you got what you wanted. You found out who your father was, why are you so pissed?" She asked me.

"Oh, I don't know. Maybe because I just found out I have two other siblings and I could have called my father, my father this whole time but you are too fucking stubborn to tell me." I told her. "Where you using me to blackmail FP so he would run drugs for you before he got arrested?" She didn't answer me. "Well, did you?!"

"Yes, I did, okay?! Are you happy?!" She yelled at me.

"I swear to god if you ever use me as blackmail ever again, I won't only kill you but get you kicked out of the Serpents. Then I'll expose you." I warned her. "Not only to the Serpents but to the cops." I turned and walked away. I got on Sweet Pea's bike and drove to the prison. The security guards had let me see FP, so I sat in the chair that was in front of the glass. FP then sat down in front of me and picked up the phone and so did I.

"I didn't expect to see you today." FP smiled on me, before seeing the pissed look on my face, "What's wrong?"

"I'm fucking pissed." I told him, "Where do I start? After I hung up with you I was being pulled out of Southside by your son and his ginger friend. I watched my boyfriend and my best friends get arrested. Then the three of us went to Pop's then Tall Boy told us to meet at The House of the Dead and Tall Boy let a big ass secret that you and Penny have been keeping from me for sixteen years. You could have told me. Sixteen years, FP, sixteen fucking years. I never thought the one person who I saw as a father figure would be my biological father or that I was what Penny had on you but I will say it explains why you are so protective of me."
