Bryan's POV.
The sound of a siren filled the atmosphere, Xavier and the governor was handcuffed and raised from the ground where they sat.
It was finally happening, Xavier and Jaden is about to face the final judgement.
We all watched silently, my heart was quite heavy as I stared at the bloody face of Xavier.
He won't stop groaning in pain...
"Bryan..." He called my name for the first time leaving me stunned.
I turned to him and he smiled.
"I'm sorry..." He muttered leaving me shaken.
Everyone was awed, we all fluttered our eyes staring at him.
"Take care of Rose well, Rose take care of him. I couldn't experience love because I took the evil path, but you two taught me what love is with your life!!" He said in a gentle tone which I had never heard...
The tone wasn't that gruff one, it wasn't that scary like it used to be...I swear it sounded like that of a father...
"If you had changed earlier, maybe you won't end up dying.." I mumbled looking down to the ground.
Rose held my hand gently.
"You sound emotional right now, what do you think about Xavier?" She asked and I shut my eyes and breathed heavily...
"Move!!!" One of the agents howled hitting Xavier on the back making one of his wounds reopen.
He shrilled in pain followed by a groan that left me shivering...
I don't know why, but I felt my heart pained with that...
"Why did you hit him??" I half yelled at the agent and he bowed a little.
"His time is up and he got no f**king time to talk!" The cop gruffed.
Xavier glanced at me and our eyes met.
"Do you feel any pity for a devil-like me??" He asked.
"Get the hell outta here!!!..you bloody killer!!" Rose bawled.
"I deserve all this and even more..just that, I'm surprised that Bryan seems to...." His voice was hitched with a punch from another agent.
They dragged him so roughly not minding his wounds.
I shut my eyes not wanting to see more of the torture, at least after today.
Rose and I would live in peace, we would sing to the world without fear...
"Wait!!!!!!" We all heard a scream, it was that of my foster mother.
She was running towards us.
We all turned to her including Xavier...
In her hand lies a file.
"Ma'am..good day." The cops all greeted with a little bow...
Being the known wife of George gave her respect.
"Mom, when did you return??.." I asked trying to hold her hand but she moved back immediately.
"I'm not worthy to be called your mother, guess you already know you were abducted!!" She stated and turned to Xavier...
"Is this where you finally end??" She asked and he sagged his head in shame.
She turned to George then to me.
"I've something to show you all, I can't say it out of shame and guilt..." She paused and blinked her already wet eyes.
"Bryan was abducted meaning you aren't his real father..." She said to George before turning to me.
" Bryan is my biological son, I gave birth to him and dumped him in the motherless baby that's why I made sure we adopted him so I can take care of him.." She paused and glanced at Xavier...
"Mom, but why??..why did you never care about me?.. I passed through a lot and you never give a damn!!" I whimpered emotionally with Rose patting my back...
"Take this and read, you will know why I never cared much about you and Xavier's fight!" She stated and handed the file to me...
Immediately I took it, she walked away...
The crowd around were watching, the press were taking video records and camera shots.
I opened the envelope and took out the content, my eyes dilated as I saw it was a DNA result.
My brow arched as my heart pound so fast,
Can it be what I am thinking??
"No!!!!!!" I screamed as I read it...
The file fell off my grip as I shivered...
Rose quickly picked it up and gasped seeing what was in it...
This can't be!!!
"Bryan what is it???" Jace asked curiously...
I turned my gaze on Xavier and he also looked at me...
"He is my father....." I shrieked pointing at him...
At the mention of that, I saw a flood of tears roll down Xavier's cheeks...
"You are my son??.. Bryan. I'm sorry..take good..care of yourself.." He stuttered with a weak smile before being pushed into the van.....
I stared in horror, not able to move...
My father had wanted me dead, my father had wanted my happiness taken away at all cost!!..
Jace and the others gave me a soothing hug,
"Bryan...don't be too sad, he would have killed me, if he got the chance we would be dead and wasted, don't....." I hushed Rose from saying more.
"Who is sad???" I asked with a short laugh leaving them surprised.
"The only thing that would make me sad is losing Rose, but here she is right beside me!!!..do you think I care if he is my father??..just your safety is what I need most.." I cooed fondling those chubby cheeks of hers...
She smiled sweetly looking more beautiful than ever.
"Bryan..meeting you was a blessing" she purred.
"Rose, it pains to find out he is my father, what if he had succeeded in killing you, I would have killed him myself not minding any f**king he is. I even regret being a son to that monster!!" I sighed and she held my jaw...
"I understand..that's why I feel like kissing you here and now..." She soothed with a lopsided grin.
"Do whatever you feel like, at least, there is no Xavier to fear.." I giggled and she brought her head closer...
Right in front of everyone, she kisses me deeply with our eyes closed...
We heard a clap that made us break the kiss, it was just too loud more than the scream of the onlookers.
Turning around, we saw Kelvin coming towards us with Celine beside him.
"What a love!" He laughed
"Are you here to take her away??..oh, thank God, she is your sister, I'm not disturbed at all" I deadpanned with a smirk.
"Even if she isn't my sister, can you compare her to this Angel beside me.." He chuckled and held her hand gently.
"Fine..we have stood enough!!..time for some crazy party!!!!" Fred spoke out for the first time.
"Yeah!!!..let's rock a party of victory!!" Sophia added and he swaddled her into his arm making her laugh harder.
Rose's POV
"Look at Xavier at your back!" Jace shouted at him funnily and I couldn't help my laugh...
"The dead or living one??" Clara cackled.
"Mr Governor, take my mother to the beach, that's where she loves.." I winked
"That's not a problem.." He laughed and held her hand.
We all head to our cars, the whole crowd were all swooning and drooling so hard wishing they were one of us, their eyes showed their craving.
I couldn't help smiling sheepishly.
This was the same way I stays all day and night staring at Bryan's picture drooling and swooning, wishing to meet him, wishing to touch him, wishing to sing with him, wishing I could make him my boyfriend!!!
It was all happening already...
My wish is now a reality!!
"Oh, I'm sorry!!" He squeaked and I turned to him.
"What???..." I couldn't finish before he quickly carried me into his arm...
"Must you do it??" I squealed amidst giggles.
"Even if I am lazy and exhausted, I won't let you stress those tender feet" he purred and pecked my lips.
Oh gosh!!.. I'm already floating...
Clara glanced at Jace who was the only one left to carry his babe...
"Why the glance, you think I have the muscle to carry a heavy load??" He deadpanned rolling his eyes.
"Oh...fine!..someone else would do it now!" She said and made run away from him but couldn't make two steps forward before Jace caught her hand...
"Don't make me get mad in jealousy!" He rolled his eyes again before carrying her gently.
"You should have claimed a strong head like Bryan, I would have made you cry.." She laughed and I also couldn't hold my laughter.
We got to the flashy cars and zoomed off, I was sitting with Bryan.
Just then, his phone rang...
He took it and smiled seeing what was displayed.
"What is that??" I asked glancing at the screen.
"The national singing competition is next week..." He smirked.
"Wow!!!!..so soon!!!!" I squealed jumping.
"I'm just thinking of who to sing with??..which female can even sing with me??" He muttered thoughtfully.
Huh???
"Were you thinking I would sing with you??..you are my girlfriend doesn't mean I'd sing with you, Sophia can serve.." He shrugged and my eyes fluttered as I sneered at him.
I tried to believe he is pulling pranks but his face was damn mean and void of a laugh.
"Bryan what????.." My eyes became wet.
"I've even found someone better than Sophia!" He shrugged and looked out of the side glass.
"What did I do??..is my voice not good for the national competition??" I asked anxiously.
"Apart from Rose, who else I'm I in love with??..who else has the greatest voice??..who else gives me goose pimple with her smiles..." He laughed and I smiled...
"So you were all pulling my legs and I fell for it again!!" I shouted.
"I can't wait to sing with you..." He giggled and lay on my lap.
"Pull up this big head off me!!" I half screamed in laughter.
"That same head that made you throw away the pizza for delivery leading to your firing..." He laughed and I joined the laugh knocking his head playfully...
Oh wow!!
I can't be less happy!!
