There For You

Robert knew he would never stop worrying about her, that he would never stop protecting her. It had been over forty years since they had first met and he had fallen so completely in love with Anna Devane. Robert also knew that no matter how they both might feel he would never have her in his life again, not as more than a friend. Knowing all of this didn't stop him from keeping tabs on what might be happening involving Anna. Robin kept him informed of the personal things, he didn't think Finn was right for Anna but if that's who she was happy with what could he do? After being diagnosed with cancer it had taken her a little while to adjust to the shift in her job description but she was now handling that as well. Even after this mess with her secret child, she seems to have settled back down. Other than the search for Obrecht and hoping to get to know Peter he knew Anna wasn't doing much. So why was someone names Hayden Barnes so interested in her? And why was Hayden Barnes going by the name Jessica Turner?

Robert didn't like it one bit, whoever this was had better leave Anna alone. She should be allowed to have a life without unwanted interference. Robert had been looking into Ms Barnes for a while now and had discovered that she just happens to be Finn's ex, she had actually left him the day they were going to be married. Now she was gathering information on Anna, but why? Robert decided he should tell Anna about this but she wasn't talking to him very much at the moment and after the coldness of their last goodbye he knew she wouldn't be happy about him showing up at her house. Robert knew he had to do something with this information, even it was just to give her a heads up. He would have to go talk to her in person.

Finn wandered out on the roof of GH, he wanted to be alone to think. He should be happy, Anna was back in town for now and they seemed to be in a good place, they were happy together. That didn't stop him wondering what could have been once in a while, today was one of those days. If Hayden hadn't have lost their baby, it would be around six months old now. Had it been a boy or girl he wondered? Why had she left when she did? They could have found a way to fix the problem she was having, he knows they could have. People in this city seem to get away with a hell of a lot worse. Finn leaned on the half wall looking out into the night wondering where she was right now.

As exciting as Anna's world can be he knew it wasn't really meant for him. He's a doctor, not James Bond. He likes that he's been able to help her but how can he think he'd be any real help if there was any real danger? What would happen if they ended up in a situation where Anna should have had real back up? Would he know what to do to get them out of a tight spot, luck and a smart tongue can only take you so far? As he looked out at the night his thought went back to the baby he had lost. Finn felt that loss of their baby had been the end of his chances to be a father, maybe that was just the way it was meant to be.

...

It had been almost a year since she had walked out of his life. Hayden knew she had no right to still feel that way she does for him. As she stroked her daughter's hair as she slept in her arms, she thought about their baby's father. Finn would have been a wonderful father, she knew that. Now she was alone raising their little girl, Bailey, and he had moved on with another woman. Now living as Jessica Turner, investment banker, she was not worried about money and her problems from the past were now going to stay there. That meant nothing though, she wanted to have a life with the man she loves. The father of this beautiful baby. A tear rolled down her cheek thinking about the life they should have shared in the house they had bought in Port Charles. "Your daddy would love you so much, Bailey." For the last three months, she has been struggling with the choice she had made. She had told him in her letter that she had lost their baby, ever since she had given birth she had known that it had been wrong to do that. Hayden had even gone as far as finding out the name of the woman Finn is dating, Anna Devane. She had heard a little about her during her time in Port Charles but had looked into her more. She sounds amazing, Hayden had been surprised that he would be with someone so different from herself but maybe that was just what he needed. Someone so different from herself that he could put her completely behind himself and move on without her.

Whatever the case was Hayden had finally come to a decision. She had their bags packed and they were booked on the early flight tomorrow, by this time tomorrow they would be back in Port Charles. She had already made all the arrangments since Finn still lived at the Metro Court she had made reservations at another hotel, the nanny would be coming with them so hopefully, that meant she would be able to talk to Finn alone. She needed to see him, to explain about why she had left him, why she had told him she had lost their baby. Hayden knew this wasn't going to be easy but she knew it was the right thing to do. Finn should at least know he has a daughter, she owes him that much.

...

Anna walked into her sitting room, she felt no closer to finding Obrecht than she had when she left this last time to find her. Faison was finally gone, he could never hurt her the way he has so many times in the past again. Anna knew she should be happier then she is but she wasn't, at least not today. Obrecht is out there somewhere, she could come back at any time to inflict more pain into Anna's life. Then there was what she had done to Peter. No matter how he might feel about her, Anna didn't want anything to happen to her son. Peter had already been through so much just by having Faison as the only parent he had known. There wasn't much she could do about her relationship with Peter, maybe one day that would change she thought with a sigh.

Anna likes what she has with Finn, she doesn't know where it will go but for now, she was just enjoying the journey they're on. It's nice having someone she cares for, to have someone in her life again. She knew he had personal matters that needed to be dealt with as well, his brother wants to know him. His father just seems to want to be a part of his son's life as well, but Finn was resistant to both. At least Chase was making some progress with Finn.
