Bad News
AN: This one shot is written from John's point of view.
There were some days that I wish I could skip altogether. It wasn't that I didn't want to see her again because I did, but I hated the circumstances that brought me to her door. I had already caused her enough heartbreak and pain and the last thing that I wanted to do was to deliver this news, but she had to hear it and I had to be the one to tell her.
"John, what are you doing here? Did you come to arrest me? Are you going to take me back to Llanview?" Marty asked as she backed away from the door.
"Is Patrick here?"
"No...he isn't here anymore."
"Marty, listen to me-"
"I'm sorry John...I'm sorry about everything...I'm sorry about changing Liam's paternity. I know that you must hate me, but I never meant to hurt you. I was sick and-"
"Marty, I'm not here about that and I could never hate you. I'm here about Cole and Hope. I'm sorry Marty, there was an accident and Cole and Hope didn't survive."
Marty sank to the floor as the news hit her. "It can't be true...you're just messing with my head because you wanted to hurt me the way that I hurt you."
"I wish that I was lying to you. I know that I let you and Cole down. I loved him too Marty and I would give anything for it not to be true, but it is."
"What happened?"
"There was a car accident. Starr was able to get out but Cole and Hope were trapped in the car. It went over the edge of a cliff and exploded."
"Oh...god...I can't survive this too."
I couldn't stand to see her in pain. I still loved her and the only thing that I could do was take her in my arms and kiss away her pain. She kissed me back while I grabbed her waist and brought her closer to me.
"Are you sure?" I asked as she took her shirt off.
"I'm not sure of anything anymore...all I know is that I need you, I need this," Marty stated as she unbuttoned my pants.
I laid Marty down on the couch and inserted my self so deep into her. "I love you Marty," I whispered in her ear as we exploded inside one another.
Afterwards...I just held her in my arms as she cried.
"I'm going to see you through this pain Marty. I promise that I'm not going to abandon you the way that I did after our daughter died. I meant what I said...I do love you."
"I love you too John. I need to see Starr."
"I know. I'm going to Port Charles to investigate the accident. I'll take you with me. Will Patrick want to come too?"
"Patrick's gone. He left me without telling me where he was going or how long he would be gone...so I think it's just you and me on this trip," Marty stated.
"What about Natalie? Is she going to be there?"
"I broke up with Natalie. Let's go and pack your bags," I stated as I kissed her. I made myself a promise that I would be there for her while she said goodbye to her son and granddaughter.
