A What: if Scarlet didn't fall down the stairs story.
"MOTHER!" Bonnie Blue Butler called running inside the Butler's mansion.
Katie Scarlet O'Hara Hamilton Kennedy Butler stood by the stairs with her arms wide open. Her little girl was finally back so was the man who she had realized she loved with all her heart.
"Bonnie
Dear!" Scarlet called hugging her four year old.
"Mama, papa
got me a little kitty. Do you like her? Oh mama isn't she lovely.
Like my pony, I want my pony; I want to show my kitty the pony. Oh
please may I show my kitty the pony. Oh please mama." Bonnie begged
her mother. Scarlet looked down at her adorable daughter and saw a
younger version of her. How could she say no to the little girl?
Which reminded her she HAD to tell Rhett about the new baby? What
would he say?
"Go on darling, show off your Kitty." Scarlet said looking around for Rhett. Then she saw him walking in, the same handsome man she had met all those years ago. The man she had loved all along. The man who was the father of her unborn child.
"MAMA Come with me!" Bonnie ordered tugging at her mother's skirt. Yet Starlet's eyes where trapped staring at Rhett.
"Rhett?" she whispered staring at him.
"Hello Scarlet, how's Ashley?" he asked walking in and throwing his hat at the butler. She loved him why couldn't he just understand!
"You know I don't give a damn about him!" she snapped leading Bonnie away.
He watched her go, why couldn't she just tell him that she loved him. It was always about that Ashley. Ashley this, Ashley that.
Scarlet led Bonnie into the huge garden and told one of the servants to get Bonnie her pony.
"Mama Will you ride with me?" Bonnie asked putting her arms around Starlet's legs.
Scarlet looked down at Bonnie and was about to agree when she realized that she was pregnant and might hurt the child.
"Wade, Ella come and play with your sister!" Scarlet called. Beckoning her eldest children over, Ella happily ran over to play with the pony. Bonnie stopped smiling and hit Ella in the stomach.
"BONNIE BLUE BUTLER! What was that for?" Scarlet exclaimed running towards Ella and hugging her.
"MY daddy bought this pony for me. Daddy's not her daddy. She's not even my sister, I don't have one!" Bonnie protested.
"Mammy take Ella in, I'm going to speak to Bonnie on her own!" Scarlet snapped. She kissed Ella on her cheek and half dragged Bonnie to a bench.
"I'm not happy with you missy!" Scarlet snapped.
"I don't like Ella or Wade. Only my Daddy and you and the Democrats." Said Bonnie with pouted lips. Scarlet stared down at her favorite child. None of the other children ever said they loved her to her face. Of course they loved their Auntie Melanie and Uncle Rhett. But Bonnie was the only one to look her in the eyes and say it to her.
"Bonnie you're going to have your own brother or sister now. In four months, and they're going to be your REAL sibling." Scarlet promised. Bonnie immediately looked at her mother.
"Really, Mama, promise?" Bonnie asked.
Scarlet nodded and led the girl to her pony.
That night when they were all waiting for Rhett at the dinner table. Belle Walting walked in. Scarlet immediately stood up.
"Get out!" she snapped.
Belle however seated herself opposite Scarlet. Behind her stood a young man looking like Belle he sat next to Belle.
"Mama who are they?" Bonnie demanded.
"No one's that's who, your father felt pity on that wench." Scarlet sneered.
"That's enough from your behalf Mrs. Butler." Said Rhett. Walking in looked dashing as usual with his trademark smirk.
"DADDY!" Bonnie exclaimed running to her father. "Good to see you too Bonnie but please remain seated." Rhett said sitting at the head of the table.
"You spoil her Rhett." Belle said with a small smile looking at Bonnie who ran back to the warm arms of her mother.
"Captain, Captain Butler." Scarlet corrected glaring at Belle.
"ENOUGH! Scarlet this is my son. Bonnie's new brother. Well older brother." Rhett explained at the footmen served the food.
Scarlet looked startled. BELLE was the mother of Rhett's son!
"No he's not! Mama said my brother is due in four months, and he's not born yet!" Bonnie exclaimed hugging her darling mother. That's exactly when Scarlet O'Hara the Southern Irish queen fainted.
Belle smiled Scarlet was an obstacle in the way of the Butlers fortune, she and her new child would have to go.
