Philip spent the next two days looking through old photo albums.He was sure that there he would find the answer to his question of who Ryan looked like.He was sure Ryan didn't look like Brady, but he didn't want to not trust Chloe's word. Trust,he really wanted to trust her.Last time he didn't he almost lost her.If it hadn't been for his quick thinking she would have probaly started dating Brady.Philip stoped when he saw it.It was a picture of two boys playing.One of them looked like Ryan.This was it!He flipped the photo over and read Philip and Brady. Now all he had to do was find out which was Brady and which was him and then he'd know for sure.He placed the picture in his back pocket and went looking for Chloe. ************* Ryan had just gone to sleep and Chloe finally got time to think.Was she falling for Philip again?Was she?If she was she she tell him about Ryan?No.he had never told her he had slept with Jan.The only reason she found out was because Jan came to rub it in her face.That and also the fact that she was expecting Philip's baby.That was what had made her change towards Philip.She had never told him about the "baby" and hse doubted that he knew.Of course she had to pay Jan a large sum to leave and never tell anyone about the "baby".Her thought were intrupted by someone opening and closing the door.She turned around to see it was Micheal. "Hi Micheal." "Hello Chloe.Lovely evening, no?" "Very.So how are you feeling so far?" "Fine." "That's great."Micheal was just about to say something else when Philip walked in. "Chloe we need to talk." "Sure.Bye Micheal."and with that she left,Philip following. "So what did you want to talk about?" "us." "What about us?" "I want things to go back like they were before." "Things will never be like before." "Don't care.I want us to be together,to have children."At the mention of children Chloe flinched. "I don't know if we can." "Why not?You still love to love me right?" "There are a lot of reasons we can't be together." "Give me one." "Um...We're destructive together." "That's a lie." "No it's not.Another a reason is that we've hurt each other to much." "We could always start over." "No we can't." "Why not?" "because." "Because what?Because you don't love me?" "Yes." "You're lying.If you don't love me then why did you come back." "To help you out." "Nope.You came back because you still love me." "Not true." "If it's not true then why can't you look me in the eye?"Chloe sighed and turned her back to him.He knew she was in love with him again,not that she had ever stopped loving him.She back around. "Fine Philip! I'm still in love with you! That's what you wanted to hear right?"He smiled.He had been waiting for her to sya it,but he didn't think she'd crack so easily."What's so amusing?" "You are.So know that you admitted that you still love me,does this mean that you're staying?"He walked foward and grabbed her hands. "Philip I just can't drop everything to be with you.What about my aparment?Or my job?What about Ryan?" "You can get rid of your aparment,you can quit your job,and Meems can find another babysitter for Ryan." 'If he only knew that Ryan was our son.'Chloe smiled."I'll think about it,Philip."He gave her a quick kiss. "Great!You'll see that this time things will be different."Chloe kissed him back and left leaving Philip alone. "Chloe was acting weird when I mentioned Ryan.Why?Why does she do that everytime I say his name does she flinch?"he wondered outloud.He took out the picture.He was the answer was in the picture and as soon as he talked to Mr.Black he would have the answer. P> That night Philip fell asleep looking at the picture of him and Brady.And that night his dreams gave him the answer.***************(in his dream)He was walking the his house,but no one notced that he was there.Then he reconizeged where he was.This was the morning that Chloe had spent almost two hours in the bathroom throwing up.When she had come out she had said she must of had some bad clams or something like that.Then it switched to the day Chloe had fainted in their room.Again no one noticed him there and again Chloe some lame excuse as to why she had fainted.He walked in front of the mirror,but was stopped by his reflection. "You're an idiot you know that!" "What are you talking about?"Philip asked "I can't believe that you hadn't figuered it together sooner." "Figuered what together?" "Think about it.Why was Chloe just sick?" "I don't know."the reflection reached out and knocked him upside the head. "Man!Maybe everyone's right,you're a dumb jock." "Hey don't insult me or I'll hurt you!"Philip warned "What are you gonna do?Hit yourself?" "Maybe you have apoint.What where you saying?" "Listen you moron!Are you actually that stupid or are you just trying?Because if you are,you're doing a great job." "Enough with the insults!What are you trying to say?" "Are you telling me that after all this time you figuered out who Ryan looks like?" "Who?Tell me!"the reflection reached out and knocked him upside the head again. "Stop acting so stupid,if you can help it." "Fine,what haven't I figuered out?" The reflection reached out and handed him a mirror."What's this for?" "This will give you your answer."Philip looked in the mirror and his reflection looked just like Ryan's.He looked at a few more moments before it clicked. "Ryan's my son?" "Congratulations!You've won a million dollars!Sure took you long enough!" "Did not!" "Two year is alot in my book." "Whatever.Now I have to talk to Chloe about this." "No!"his reflection yelled."Pressure her to tell you.See how far she'll go to keep you from finding out."Philip smiled. "You are one smart dude."they gave each other a high-five and then Philip woke up.Chloe was still asleep next to him.He brush a loose piece of hair from her face. "Today is a bright new day and full of surprises.Today you'll finally be upfront with me."
