Chapter 16

Skye looked at me, "So do you want me to answer him this time?"

I rolled my eyes and ignored his questions. I'm not going that round again. Pretending as if I didn't hear his or Nate's questions, I jumped with joy, "Yay, we're off to the Theme Park. I race you to the car," I said to Nate and started to run towards Skye's car park at the roadside. Nate immediately ran behind me.

We laughed as we reach the car, "Yay, I'm the winner," I laughed and bring my hand up to the air happily. Nate pouted his lips.

"You're cheating," he accused and folded his hand. I just laughed away.

I turned and looked at Skye who was walking slowly behind us and laughed, "Skye was the last one," I told Nate, "You're second."

Nate pouted his lips at Skye, "Promised we'll beat mummy at the Theme Park?" he asked Skye.

Skye smiled, "Yes, I'll make sure you win next time," he promised making Nate smiled.

"You can never beat me," I stuck my tongue out at Nate and he stuck his tongue back at me.

Skye pressed the remote key and opened the back door and putting Nate inside, "Now you're the winner," he said to Nate, "You're the first one to enter the car."

"Yay, mummy loses," yelled Nate and raising his hand just like I did earlier.

"You cheater," I pretended to scold him. He just laughed away.

As I was about to enter the car, Skye pulled my hand, "Don't ever think you will get away with that questions," Skye said with a serious tone.

"I'll deal with it when the time comes," I said to him with the same tone.

"You are so stubborn," scoffed Skye. I just rolled my eyes and entered the car. It took him second before entering the car. He looked angry and pissed but tried to control, maybe because he didn't want to show his anger in front of Nate.

"Now, off to the Theme Park," I happily said trying to make Skye forget about his anger but he didn't say a word but drove in silence. I had a light conversation with Nate hopping that Skye would join in but he remained silence.

"Why are you so quiet?" I asked Skye.

He didn't turn and looked at me when he replied, "Nothing. Just want to concentrate in my driving."

"You are angry with me, aren't you?" I couldn't stop myself from asking.

"I don't want to discuss this in front of him," said Skye with a serious tone with his eyes still on the road.

I sighed. I've made him angry, I know that for sure. I didn't say a word until we finally reached the Theme Park.

"We're here," said Skye as he parked the car. He sounded happy maybe trying to act cheerful in front Nate.

Nate immediately looked out through the window, "Wow."

"Come now, chap," said Skye as he opened the door for Nate, "Let's go and enjoy ourselves."

Once out Nate immediately hold Skye's hand and they walked together towards the Theme Park leaving me behind.

Maybe realizing that I was behind, Nate stopped and turned towards me, "Faster mummy, let's go," he called extending his other hands towards me. I smiled and quickly walked towards him and hold his extended hand. The three of us walked hand in hand and surprisingly, it felt wonderful as if we're walking together as a family.

Nate couldn't content his excitement when we were in the Theme Park what more Skye has won him some toys and a big Teddy Bear. Surprisingly, I too enjoyed myself with all the rides and the games. Skye seems to enjoy himself too but he didn't utter any words towards me. He has been entertaining Nate. They are really getting along fine. I could even see how proud Skye is toward Nate.

"He looked so happy," I commented as Skye and I watched Nate riding a remote car.

"Yeah, he does, doesn't he?" replied Skye softly.

"Are you still angry with me?" I asked looking at him.

"Angry is not the word but disappointed," he said without looking at me. I remained quiet. He then continued, "Disappointed because you are stubborn and selfish."

"I might be stubborn but I'm not selfish," I hissed.

"Yes, you are," he said still not looking at me, "You only think about yourself."

"Nate is always my priority," I defended.

"Yeah? Really? Then why did you deny to answer him when he asked?" he asked. He was still looking at Nate, waving and smiling back at him.

"As I said to you, I will tell him but not now," I responded and before he could further asked I added, "Before we fly back to London, as I promised you."

"But do you think it's fair for him? Keeping him wondering until the last day he's here?" asked Skye. "Do you think it's fair to let him decide on the last day he's here to choose between you and me? Don't you think it will hurt him, to choose between his mummy and daddy?"

I remember AJ has asked me the same questions and I hate to admit that both of them are right. What would Nate feel when he found out that Skye his daddy the last minutes? Will he cry and hate me for keeping it from him?

"I would love to know how he felt when he finds out that I'm his daddy," added Skye after a long silence. "I hope he's happy to have me as his daddy."

I bit my lips, "He would be thrilled when he finds out," I told him softly, "He asked last night whether he could make you his daddy."

Skye immediately turned his head towards me. I nodded my head, "He wanted you to be his daddy," I repeated.

A smiled formed in Skye's handsome face, "What did you say to him then?" he eagerly asked but then smirked, "You tell him no," he accused.

I shook my head, "I......"

He cut me off, "I know, you ignored him," he guessed. He really knows me well. I remained quiet. "Yeah, I expected you will do that," he scoffed and glared at me looking very angry.

"I don't want to lose him. He's my life and I don't think I could live without him," I told him my reasons. I could feel tears started forming in my eyes.

"You won't lose him," said Skye with a tender voice. "I have no intention of taking him away from you. All I want is to share him with you. He's ours and we should share to love him."

Aw, he words were beautiful and there's a right in what he said. Nate is ours and we should share. I shouldn't be so selfish.

"I'm sorry," I apologized to him. "You are right. I am selfish. I thought I'm doing the right thing by denying your rights on Nate and denying Nate's rights to know the truth. It's not fair for both of you."

"I'm glad your finally realized it," said Skye as he pulled me into a hugged. It felt so great and right being in his arms. I felt save and secure making me tightened my hug.

I didn't how long we were hugging each other. We were lost in our own world and we finally let go, when someone were tugging both mine and Skye's shirt. It was Nate. We didn't realize that he has finished riding the car. He was looking at us with a cheeky smile on his face. Is he felt happy that I'm hugging Skye?

"You finished?" asked Skye and Nate nodded. "What you want to do now?"

"I want ice-cream," said Nate.

"Alright," said Skye as he put Nate on his shoulder, "Let's go."

We have a splendid time in the Theme Park. I never heard Nate laughed so much in a day. We finally leave the park at 5.30 pm. Skye carried Nate on his shoulders as we walked to the car.

"You enjoyed yourself baby?" I asked him once we in the car.

"Yeah, I love it," he said with a smile, "Can we come again, Skye?"

Both Skye and I chuckled but Skye replied, "Sure."

"Yay," yelled Nate happily putting both his hand up in the air. He always does that when he's happy that his request fulfill.

"Are you hungry?" asked Skye, "Want to grab something to eat?"

"Yeah, I'm hungry," admitted Nate. "I want Mc Donald."

"Mc Donald here we come," said Syke as he drove away.

"You're spoiling him you know," I said to Skye.

"I love spoiling him," smiled Skye. "I didn't get to do that before."

"You don't have to remind me," I scoffed.

"I need to remind you, so you will always remember," he said without looking at me. I just rolled my eyes at him.

Once we reached Mc Donald, we ordered our food and sat at the corner. As usual, Nate ordered his favourite Kid's meal and sat opposite Skye. I looked at them before I ate my own burger. They both look really identical even the way they were eating. I smiled. They really look like father and son and nobody can deny that fact, not even me. I finally realized that.

Skye looked at me with the burger in my hand, "What's wrong?" he asked.

"Nothing," I shook my head and cast him a sweet smile. He smiled back at me.

I put my burger on the table "Nate, do you remember your questions this morning?" I asked Nate.

"Hmm," Nate scratch his head tried to recall his questions. Skye just looked at me with interest.

"You want to know if Skye your daddy," I reminded him.

"If you will be angry, I don't want to know," said Nate innocently.

"I want to answer you," I said.

"But before you mummy tells you, I want to know," Skye interjected, "Would you like me to be your daddy?" asked Skye looking at Nate with hope. I could see Skye looked nervous as he waited for Nate response.

Nate glanced at me as if asking my permission whether he could reply. I nodded my head indicating my permission.

He smiled and looked at Skye, "Yes, if mummy says ok," Nate replied at the same time glancing at me.

I smiled, "Well, Skye is your daddy," I told him. He looked at Skye who looked nervously at Nate waiting for Nate response.

Nate looked at me and I nodded my head, "Skye is your daddy," I repeat. "Are you happy?"

Nate smiled and the jumped on top of the table and hugged Skye, "Yay, you are my daddy. I'm so happy." Syke chuckled and hugged him back. Nate then looked at Skye and asked "Are you happy that I am you son?"

Skye smiled and kissed Nate's cheek, "You never know how happy I am. I love you."

Nate's kissed Syke's cheek before hugging him again, "I love you too, daddy."

I could felt some tears form in my eyes. I never imagine it would be this beautiful when Nate finds out about his dad.
