“Well look at my baby boy, an intern at GH. I must’ve done something right.” Fallon happily walked into the man lobby of the seventh floor at General Hospital to check on her son just after the doctor inspected her healing stab wound. Every time she looked at her youngest son she couldn’t help but smile. He was much more different than the introverted young man she had left behind. Smiling and bubbly, he was very much a happy go lucky guy that made her smile even wider.
“Mom.” Dane wrapped his arms around his mother and held on tight. Dane pulled her back to look at her. “The sun does you good.”<br>“You and your compliments” she grinned.
“Have a seat.” The two turned around and made their way to the maroon leather seats behind them.
“Is this ok? I just wanted to stop by and say hello. I don’t want to get you in trouble or anything.”<br>“Nah, its break time.” Fallon smiled at her once youngest son once more. In fact she just couldn’t stop smiling. Things at that moment were just going great. Fallon rubbed his the side of his face like she had many times when he was little.
“My darling boy.”<br>“Ah mom” he blushed.
“Don’t aw mom me, you are as handsome as ever, but I’m sure you know that.”<br>“I wish I could say I did.” Dane looked away from his mother with sadness. She knew exactly why without word.
“I’m sorry to hear about Kiely.” As she heard from her husband she found out that he and Kiely were no more despite the love he still held in his heart for her.
“Its ok, I mean it was the inevitable, she’d leave me for none other than my brother, a Cassadine.”<br>“Oh sweetheart, though the Cassadine men are exceptional, that doesn’t lessen you any. I don’t know what to say about Kiely because she’s with my other son. But Dane you are the apple of my eye and another girl will see that, you wait and see.”<br>“Yeah” he sighed. He didn’t want another girl, he wanted Kiely. He wanted the first girl who gave him a shot. The first girl he fell in love with and stuck by him through his hard times, especially the time where he thought his mother was dead.
“Well on a better note the wee ones are getting along better here in America.”<br>“That’s great mom.”<br>“Maybe one day you can come over, spend sometime with us.”<br>“Of course.” Fallon stopped talking when a doctor came up behind the two, waiting for Dane and Fallon to finish talking.
“Yes?”<br>“Here are your assignments Doc Carlton.”<br>“Thank you Dr. Ramsey.”<br>“Yup, good to see you again Fallon.”<br>“Same here Chris.” Fallon tried to hide the confusion in her voice but couldn’t hide the confusion on her face. Fallon looked back to Dane with a million and one questions swirling in her mind.
“What?” Fallon whispered.
“Um, yeah Carlton.” Fallon shook her head in shock.
“How?”<br>“Anemia doesn’t run on dad or your side of the family.” Tears began to run out of Fallon’s eyes. “But it runs on Brad Carlton’s side of the family. That’s how I found out.” Dane slid Fallon in his arms and held her for a moment. “It’s ok mom, I’m not angry, neither is dad. Jason is my father, Brad is just my biological father.”<br>“How is it I continuously fail you all with my arrival?”<br>“No, I couldn’t be more proud of you. I know what happened with Courtney.” Fallon loosened her embrace and looked into Dane’s eyes. “Sonny had to explain why you left again. Please don’t think I or Jason am angry at you, ok?”<br>“Ok.” she whispered.
“There’s more...” Fallon was almost scared to hear anymore. He knew if she was shocked about knowing his true parentage then she hadn’t been truly informed about the earth shattering news they had all found out years ago. So Dane took it upon himself to tell her hoping that when he told her this she wouldn’t react the same way they all had. “Um…mom what I’m about to tell you is going to be difficuly and maybe a little unbelievable but you have to trust me with this.” Dane took one solid breath before moving on. “You have another daughter.”<br>“WHAT?! HOW?!” she screeched.
“Carlino.”<br>“Carlino?” She tried to think hard and fast. She never slept with Carlino….
“He took some of your eggs while you were in a coma and used a surrogate to carry her.”<br>“Oh my gosh.” Fallon held her face in her hands. Right about now she felt as if she could just jump right off of GH. How could that happen to her? Just when she thought everything was fine…it wasn’t.
“No one has ever met her, she lives in Prague, we only know her through dad. He found out when he and uncle sonny went to Europe on business.”<br>“And you’re for sure she’s mine?”<br>“The paternity test tested true.” Fallon shook her head in surprise. It was all so much too digest. Way too much.
“Well my break is up, how about I come over tomorrow night and make dinner?”<br>“You cook?” she laughed wiping her tears.
“Je suis assez bon quand il s'agit de la cuisine. J'ai appris de vous.” Fallon was touched. Not only did he cook, but he spoke French.
“Je vous aime si beaucoup” {I love you so much} Fallon said hugging her son.
“Je vous aime aussi maman.”
“I’ll see you tomorrow.”<br>“Alright.” Fallon left out of GH and began to walk through the park. She couldn’t believe it. Dane was Brad Carlton’s son? She never felt so ashamed. She loved Dane with all her heart but Brad’s? And this daughter?! How? Why? It seemed like coming back to Port Charles was just a new twist and turn that she just wasn’t ready for.
“Mom.” Dane wrapped his arms around his mother and held on tight. Dane pulled her back to look at her. “The sun does you good.”<br>“You and your compliments” she grinned.
