A few hours after her confrontation with Tara at TM, Wendy was back at home with her baby girl.

The former was currently trying to decide what the two of them could have for their dinner that night.

Skylar was in her room working on the small amount of homework she had for that particular night.

The fourteen year old was a pretty good student most of the time and Wendy was grateful that what her baby girl had experienced weeks prior at the cruel and disgusting hands of those three boys from her school hadn't affected that too much.

The older blonde was aware of most of the effects regarding what Skylar had gone through could have on her thanks to a friend of hers who worked as a nurse in the ER at St Thomas.

Thankfully though, the worst that Wendy had herself witnessed with her baby girl at this point had been the nightmares that she had mentioned to Gemma briefly earlier that day when they were still at the clubhouse.

She was also using the whole figuring out dinner thing as a distraction from the heavy conversation she would be having with Chibs in just a couple of hours.

She was going to reveal something to the Scotsman that only she and Gemma had ever known for the last fourteen years.

On one hand, Wendy was terrified at what his reaction might be.

At the same time though, she knew that Chibs would understand why she'd never said anything before now.

She'd honestly always viewed the older man as a sort of surrogate father figure especially during her days as a croweater.

Chibs had always made sure that none of his brothers, whether from the mother charter or from a different one, got unnecessarily rough with her back then and she had been extremely appreciative of that from him.

After ultimately giving up on finding something to make for dinner on her own, Wendy made her way up to her daughter's bedroom to see if she might have any requests on what she might like to have for dinner that night.

Skylar had already finished her small amount of homework and was now relaxing in her bed reading one of her favorite books.

"Hey, baby. Just wanted to see if there was anything specific you might want for dinner tonight since I can't seem to come up with anything myself."

Skylar thought for a moment before responding.

"Uhm, what about tacos? We haven't had those in a while."

Wendy smiled at her daughter before agreeing that tacos sounded like a great idea.

She turned to head back downstairs to start preparing dinner but was stopped by her daughter's soft voice.

"Hey, Mom? Can I talk to you about something for a minute?"

Turning back around, Wendy immediately noticed the sadness in her baby girl's brown eyes that reminded her so much of her father's own.

Crossing the room, she sat on the bed facing Skylar.

"What's on your mind, baby?"

Skylar hesitated for a moment before finally telling her mother about how she and her boyfriend Nate had broken up earlier that day at school.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, baby. I know how much you cared for Nate and it was always obvious to me that he cared for you very much too. Is it okay if ask why the two of you decided to end things between you?"

Skylar hesitated for a moment again before explaining to her mother that Nate had been eaten up by guilt because not only did he feel like he failed to protect her from the boys who'd assaulted her but that he was the reason that it'd even happened in the first place.

"What does thar mean exactly, baby? How is exactly it Nate's fault that those boys did what they did to you?"

Skylar explained that according to what Nate had told her earlier that day which she'd later confirmed through one of the cheerleaders at school who was actually genuinely nice towards her, the guys on the team had wanted him to do something really risky and stupid as some kind of initiation to welcome him onto the football team.

It finally registered in Wendy's brain what her daughter was trying to tell her. She held her tongue though and allowed her baby girl to finish speaking.

"And apparently when Nate refused to go through with whatever they wanted him to do, they retaliated by coming after me. I care for Nate very much, Mom but I-I just can't stay together with him if he's gonna hide something like that from me, you know?"

Wendy nodded her head, letting her baby girl know that she understood where she was coming from.

"I get it, baby. I don't blame you for ending things with Nate since he kept something like that from you either. He was likely just trying to protect you from knowing the truth since he couldn't stop those boys from hurting you the way they did that night."

Skip to a few hours later when Chibs shows up at Wendy's place just cause lol 😂

After checking on Skylar who had gone to bed for the night about fifteen minutes before Chibs was set to show up at her house, Wendy made her way back into her kitchen where Chibs was waiting as he nursed a beer she'd offered him after he'd arrived at the house.

"Skylar's asleep. I just hope that she can sleep more than just an hour tonight before the nightmares start."

Chibs assured the blonde that her daughter was strong just like herself, causing Wendy to smile warmly at the Scotsman.

"So whatcha wanna talk to me about, luv?"

"Well, this isn't exactly easy for me to say. I wanted to talk to you about Skylar's dad. About who exactly he is, I mean."

Chibs was surprised to say the least that Wendy wanted to talk about her daughter's father.

Despite the two being as close as they were, she'd never once wanted to approach the subject with him before.

It was almost as if Wendy knew what he was thinking as she went on to explain that she had always intended to tell the man who had fathered her baby girl about her but that she had never had much chance over the years since not only was he from a different charter but he also rarely ever came to Charming and on the rare occasion that he did, he usually left town right after whatever had brought him there was taken care of.

"So who is he, luv?"

Wendy inhaled deeply before finally responding to the question asked by the Scotsman.

"Happy Lowman. My daughter's father is Happy Lowman."

A/N: Another chapter of this story is done!

So, did anyone expect Wendy to reveal that Happy is actually her daughter's father?

What about Skylar's revealing to her mom that she ended things with her boyfriend along with the reason why?

Please feel free to leave a vote and/or comment below and let me know what you think of this chapter and this story as a whole so far.

Hope that you all have a great day/afternoon/night depending on wherever you may be, remember that you are all amazing, beautiful and wonderful just the way you are.
