A/N – Well everyone, here's the second part to my story (not too sure how many parts yet) If you're new here – you might want to read the first part of this story before you read this one, it will make a lot more sense! Sorry, I know chapter 1 is a bit of a summary of what happened in the last story, but for those of you who haven't read my last piece of work lately, it will help jog your memory!
Undeniable: Part 2Chapter 1:
Jack lay awake. It had been a month since the nightmare had begun. A month since he had almost lost someone he had come to love more than he had ever thought possible. The memories of those torturous nights still haunted his dreams, and Sue's. He knew it was still tormenting her, as much as she had started to return to normal. She was back at work, and she was definitely happy and recovering. Her and Jack were spending a lot of time together. There was always the constant reminder of what happened, but neither Jack nor Sue blamed the baby, but only took him or her as a blessing from a bad situation. Jack knew it would take a long time for Sue to completely heal; he just hated seeing her suffering.
Earlier that evening, Sue was sitting next to Jack; hand in his, after finally convincing him to put in a sappy chick flick. He rolled his eyes - Sue couldn't help but smile. She knew that he would do anything for her, including endure 2 hours of painful cheesiness. It was amazing how comfortable she felt around him, even after everything that had happened. Well, it was probably because of everything that had happened.
As the movie dragged on, Sue felt the fatigue of the day start to overwhelm her. She tried to keep her tired eyes open, but soon fell asleep on Jack's shoulder.
Images of Greg clouded her thoughts. She was running through a forest, trying to get out but he and James were chasing her. She was begging for them to save her babies life – to kill her instead of her child, but they took her baby and threw it into the river. Sue began to panic and cry for help as she swam through the frozen waters, but couldn't find her baby. Suddenly she felt a strong grip on her hand. She opened her eyes briefly. It was only a dream, she thought. Her hand went automatically to her abdomen, the other squeezed Jack's hand, as he looked at her with concern.
"Are you okay? Is it the baby?" He asked, worry flooding his eyes
"No, we're fine. Just a bad dream. I was more tired than I thought." She answered, trying to put on a brave face. One Jack saw right through.
"Was it Greg?" She nodded.
"And James."
"They're in jail, they're not getting out." He said firmly, trying to convince her that she was safe now.
"I know Jack. It's just a little hard. I know it takes time to deal with it, and I'm trying." She leaned her head on Jack's shoulder again. Just having him close by almost made all of her worries go away. Almost. The movie was almost over - Jack really had no clue what had happened, and Sue stifled yet another yawn.
"Honey, you need to go to bed. You need your rest, especially now with the morning sickness. I'll take you home, tuck you in, then come by in the morning to get you for work okay?" She nodded and smiled.
"Thanks Jack." She leaned over and planted a kiss on his lips. No matter what Greg or James did, it wasn't going to ruin her life. She was going to move on from it. She had a wonderful man who loved her no matter what had happened, and loved her baby just as much, even though it wasn't even his. She was going to be a mother, which made her heart leap with excitement every time she thought of it. Things were finally going to go her way.
"I love you" Jack whispered to Sue, her eyes intent on his lips
"I love you too." Jack placed his hand protectively on her stomach. Sue couldn't read his lips as he talked to her belly. She wouldn't have wanted to anyways. It was something special that they had. When he looked up at the smile on her face, he just simply said,
"Just saying goodnight to my little munchkin. Come on, let's take you home so you can get some sleep." He guided her out the door of his apartment, anticipating the day when he would get to wake up beside her, with a little one between them. You can't let the bad things get you down, Jack thought, as he happily drove his beautiful girlfriend back to her apartment.
