A/N: Takes place in April 1999 I have bipolar disorder which is why I have so many stories. My mind races with ideas and I have to write the new ones down and I am trying to update the old ones too.
CHAPTER ONE
Robin sat looking out her kitchen window at the birds and smiled. She had been back in Paris for over three months and today was the first time she had smiled. She was going to be okay. She wasn't going to call Jason and try to tell him her news anymore. He had made it abundantly clear he did not want to hear from her. She had called and sent letters and they had been sent back return to sender. She had tried to call Sonny and was hung up on by him too. She would be okay. She could handle this on her own.
She got ready for school and headed out. She walked out the door and headed for the Sorbonne. She didn't know things were about to change.
In Port Charles Mac and Taggart was chasing a killer. He had killed his wife's family when he caught his wife cheating on him. He drove to his wife's family home and killed them instead of killing her and her lover. Brandlet who was the killer, turned around and shot and hit Mac who went down. Taggart called in an officer down, Mac was hit in the abdomen. He was rushed to General Hospital where he had to undergo emergency surgery and Felicia picked up the phone and placed a call to Paris, to Robin.
Robin was just returning home from her class and she was getting ready to go to work when her phone rang, she thought about not answering it because she was running late but she picked it up intent on keeping it short when she heard Felicia's voice. She knew something was wrong. She dropped the phone in shock. Her uncle had been shot. She picked up the phone and told Felicia she would be on the next flight out. She was going home. She was going back to Port Charles. She couldn't believe this, her uncle, her strength might die. She called the airport and the next flight out wasn't for an hour and a half, she made reservations for the flight and knew she needed to pack in a hurry and pick up her medicine from the pharmacy. She hurriedly packed just one suitcase and one bag to carry on the plane with her meds that she did have and a few other necessities and had a taxi pick her up take her to the pharmacy, to the Sorbonne University and then to the airport. She checked in got her ticket that she had paid for when she called them. She took her ticket to the gate and sat down. She sat and waited anxiously wanting to get to her uncle as soon as possible thirty minutes later they called her flight and she boarded the plane. She prayed that her uncle was going to be okay. That he would make it through surgery and be okay. She knew the doctor's at General Hospital were the best. Her uncle if he lived was going to kill her for coming home because when she went to the Sorbonne and told them her uncle had been shot and she had to go home they told her if she did that she would lose her scholarship. She told them where they could put their scholarship. She had changed in the months away from Port Charles, she decided she wasn't going to be a doormat for anyone anymore. She was going to stand up for herself. No more, nice girl who gets run over and thrown aside. If she wasn't number one in her lover's life than he wasn't going to be in her life. Jason didn't treat her as a priority, she was dead last with him and she wasn't going to be that again for anyone.
She had to put herself and the twins she was carrying first. She was five months pregnant and she showed, if Jason, Sonny or Carly saw her they would be able to tell. She laughed at that thought, Jason, Sonny and Carly had all hung up or her when she was trying to tell Jason or get someone to tell Jason she was pregnant, the only one who listened was Carly, she knew Robin was pregnant and she bet her bottom dollar that she hadn't told Jason or Sonny about her pregnancy. I wonder if they would forgive her, they sure didn't forgive Robin. Would they forgive Carly? Who knew what they would do if Jason and Sonny found out Carly lied to them or just didn't tell them that Robin was pregnant with Jason's children?
She decided to try to sleep and the next thing she knew the flight attendant was waking her up and telling her that it was almost time to land, she needed to put on her seatbelt. Wow she slept through the plane ride which was unusual, she had trouble sleeping without Jason there.
The plane landed and she went and got on her connecting flight from New York City to Port Charles.
Just a little bit and she would be in Port Charles, she better call Felicia but first she would call Jax to see if he could pick her up. She didn't want Felicia to have to come and get her and Jax she was sure if he didn't have meetings would pick her up from the airport.
"Hello." Jax said
"Hello, Jax its Robin."
"Robin, I just got back in town an hour ago and heard about Mac getting shot. Do you need me to send a plane to Paris?"
"No I'm about to land in Port Charles. Do you have time to pick me up, or are you busy?"
"I'll be at the airport to pick you up. I am headed out now. What gate will you be coming in on?"
Robin tells him "I'm coming in on gate 345. We'll be landing in about ten minutes. We have clearance to land the pilot just said so meet me at gate 345 in about ten to fifteen minutes. Thanks Jax."
"You're welcome. See you soon."
They hung up and Robin gets ready to land and Jax takes off in his car to get Robin. Fifteen minutes later Jax sees a pregnant Robin come through the gate and is shocked, he hadn't known she was pregnant. He went up to her and hugged her.
"You forgot to tell me something when I called you over the last three and a half months."
"I'm sorry, I just thought Jason deserved to hear the news first, boy was that a mistake, all he, Sonny and Carly did was hang up on me although Carly knows, I told her and told her to have Jason call it was urgent and no phone call from Jason. I am pregnant with twins, a girl and a boy. I have given up on telling Jason although if he sees me he will notice and probably be shocked but that is his own damned fault he should have listened to me when I called or opened the letters I sent him. I even sent him a sonogram picture of the babies. This is his loss not mine. I didn't try to keep him from knowing I am pregnant with his children so there is no reason I would feel guilty, and I don't. I tried to tell him he just didn't want to hear from me and told me so, this last time I called him he was downright mean in what he said to me and I decided after that phone call that he is the one who is going to lose out not me. Not anymore, I am the one who loved him the most and I am the one having his real children not his fake family or fake child. So he can go fly a kite as far as I am concerned."
"Robin, what did he say to you in this phone call that you said he was mean to you?"
"It was horrible Jax and I don't want to repeat it because I don't want to cry again. I cried for hours after that phone call. It was so horrible what he said to me and I don't want to talk about that, I'm not ready to talk about that. Can you just take me to the hospital so I can see Uncle Mac?"
"Yes, I can do that let's go pick up your luggage and get out of here. I will keep your luggage and drop it off to you when you call me, okay."
"Thanks Jax the thought of lugging that around with me, I didn't like that idea too much." They were at the conveyer belt and Robin showed him which one was hers and he shook his head and got it and they walked out to the car and got in and Jax drove her to the hospital so she could see her uncle Mac. Jax told her to call him when she was ready to either be picked up or when she needed her luggage.
