Author's Note-Hey guys I told you I would post a new story so here it is. Okay so this story takes place in the future. Everything has been resolved here are a few notes, Adam has been cleared of Delia's murder turns out it was Nikki she was drunk. Before Adam came out of hiding, Sharon found out it was him, and they worked together to clear his name. They ended up sleeping together but it was one time. After the big reveal Adam went back to Chelsea. Nikki is in rehab because well you know the great Victor Newman can get anybody out of anything. Since I'm hoping this whole storyline will end in February Sweeps that's where all of this takes place after. By the way this is being written on my iPad. Okay now on with the story.
Disclaimer- I own nothing.
'How did I end up here'? Sharon thought to herself. 'You know how', she thought to herself again as she thought back.
Flashback:
Adam, and Sharon were at Sharon's house. Adam was pacing around back, and forth. Sharon looked at him with worried eyes. Adam began talking really fast, "I don't know how much longer I can keep this up Sharon. Everyday it gets harder, and harder. Everyday I'm away from my family, and they're getting closer, and closer to Billy", Adam said.
Sharon tried her best to calm him down, "It'll be ok. We'll figure out a way to get you back to them", she said. This wasn't easy for her either. After she found out Gabriel was really Adam she agreed she would keep his secret. It was hard to lie because after all Chelsea did give her a job, gave her advice on what she could do in court to keep her daughter, and she was lying to her everyday that her husband was alive, and living in town with a different face.
But it wasn't her fault. Sharon figured out Gabriel was really Adam so why couldn't anybody else? Well after she figured it out she confronted Adam who denied it at first. But after months of not being able to confide in anybody who had his best interest at heart he finally gave in, and told her everything. Ever since then she stuck by his side trying to help him as best as she could.
Adam stopped pacing, and stood in front of her, "What am I suppose to do Sharon? Even if I do reveal myself I still have to face charges for hitting Delia", he said. Tears began forming in his eyes, "I murdered a little girl. I hit her, and I left her for dead. By the time I get out of prison Connor will probably be a teenager in high school", he said his voice breaking.
"Adam listen to me that's not gonna happen. Alright? I promise you. You will get to see your son grow up", she said giving him a small smile. Adam looked down. Probably so she couldn't see the tears running down his face. "I don't even remember seeing her", he said. It wasn't like he was talking to her anymore. More like to himself.
He continued, "I got out of the car I saw the little dog running but not her. Then I get home, and I hear she had been involved in a hit, and run accident. I knew it was me, I mean after all her costume was under my car", he said.
At that moment it was as if a light bulb went off in her head, "Adam maybe it wasn't you. Maybe it was someone else. There were other people on the road that night", she said. Adam looked at her. Hope written all over his face. "You really think so"? He asked.
She nodded, "It's a stretch but it wouldn't hurt to check it out", she said. Adam wiped his tears away, "Thank you Sharon. You don't have to do this you know. I don't want to involve you in my messes", he said a frown on his face.
Sharon touched his face, "Oh Adam, I want to help. You've helped me in the past now I wanna do the same", she said softly. "Your so good to me. Even when I don't deserve it", he whispered. He leaned in, and kissed her.
Sharon would be lying if she said she wasn't surprised. The kiss was wrong he was still married after all. But the kiss felt so right so she kissed him back. They moved towards the couch.
End flashback.
Sharon stared at the unused pregnancy test in her hands. She was on her knees in her bathroom. She should have known after not getting her period but she shook it off as stress. Then she started getting sick but she thought it was a stomach virus. She knew after sleeping with Adam that she might be pregnant. But they were careful. 'Maybe I'm not pregnant', she thought to herself.
After thinking that she threw up in the toilet. When she was finished she knew it was now or never. She would never know unless she took the test. She took the test. She had to wait five minutes to get the results. She thought back to when Adam finally came out of hiding.
They were at the police station they had discovered it was Nikki who was driving the car that hit Delia that night. Chelsea was there with Billy when Adam walked up to her, and told her it was him. He hugged her, then kissed her. Sharon couldn't say she wasn't sad.
But after their night together they said they would never speak of it again. They gave each other a look before him, and Chelsea walked out of the police station. It was a look of understanding. He had a family to get back to, and she needed to work on trying to keep her daughter in her life.
After that she did her best to try, and avoid them as best as she could. But it wasn't easy it was like they were everywhere. But this was a small town after all. It wasn't like she could hide in her house the rest of her life. The timer on her phone went off. She stood up, and looked at the test her heart pounding. She saw the plus sign, "Oh no", she said. She began to cry as she sinked down to the floor. She was pregnant with Adam Newman's baby. What was she gonna do? This couldn't be happening. No doubt everybody was going to think she was a home wrecker. She knew Adam was married but he was hurting. Then again that was no excuse, and she knew it.
What could she do? She couldn't abort it. That was just to cruel. This was her baby too no matter who the father was. She could leave town, and have the baby somewhere else. Then what? No way was she giving it up for adoption that made no sense. What was she suppose to say to them when they tracked her down 18 years later? 'Oh hey sorry I gave you up even though I had kids before you that I kept. But I didn't want people to think I was a home wreaking whore. Oh, and by the way your father is a married man with a family of his own'.
Yeah they would hate her for life, and so would Adam. Then again he might be pissed because now he was going to have to explain to Chelsea that he cheated on her, and is now having a baby with another woman. The same woman who is also his ex wife. Maybe she could leave town, and raise the baby on her own.
Then 18 years later return home, and just hope that Adam will forgive her. But want about her other kids? Noah was a grown man he didn't need her anymore. Faith had Nick she'll be fine. Mariah though they had just found each other they were just starting to get to know each other. Leaving would only make her think she never cared about her. This was all one big huge mess.
She didn't know how long she was on the floor but she heard a knock downstairs. She looked at her phone it was 10:32pm who could be out this late at night? Mariah was out on a date with Kevin, and Faith was over at a friend's house. She got up, and put the test in her pocket, and wiped her eyes. When she got downstairs she opened the door.
She was surprised to see Nick standing there with his hands in his pockets. She stared at him, waiting for him to speak. After a long silence he spoke, "Can we talk"? Was all he said. Sharon didn't want to seem rude so she nodded her head, and he came in. "What do you want"? She said coldly. She didn't want to seem rude but she just discovered she was pregnant with his brother's child what should have been a moment of joy was really a moment of fear, and sadness.
"I-well-we-look", he began it was obvious he was nervous about something. "Nick please spit it out", she said. He sighed then he sat down on the couch, Sharon sat down next to him. "I wanted to say I was sorry for everything, and that I'm dropping the custody case", he said to her. Sharon smiled, and she so badly wanted to cry tears of happiness. This was great, she gets to keep her daughter. Her smile turned into a frown, "Why"? Was all she could ask. "Because well I went to go see my mom at rehab today. She seemed really sorry for what she did", he said.
"So Nikki told you to drop the case"? She asked. Nick rubbed the back of his head, "No not really. But she made me see that everybody makes mistakes. Alcoholism is a sickness just like bipolar, and I now know you were sick when you changed that test. So I'm sorry, and I forgive you", he said to her. Sharon couldn't believe it he was really apologizing to her, and he forgave her. That's all she really wanted from him.
"Thank you Nick. That means a lot", she said. There was a pause then he spoke, "I thought about everything we've been through together. I realize I threw everything away because I was angry at you. For something you couldn't even help. Sharon I still love you, and I want to be with you", he said to her.
Sharon's felt her heart skip a beat but she relaxed, "I don't know what to say", she told him. She really didn't. He wanted her back, and she was having another man's child. "Then say yes Sharon. I know we can get it right this time around", he said smiling. At that moment Sharon felt the walls closing in on her. Nick wanted her back but she was having a child with Adam who Nick hated.
She began to cry. "Hey what's wrong"? He asked. "Nothing I have to go", she said. She had to go see Adam. She had to tell him so she got up, grabbed her coat, and left Nick sitting there in confusion.
When she got to Adam's place she knocked on the door. It was 11:48pm no way he was still up but she stood there nonetheless. When the door opened, she saw Adam he looked like he had just gotten up. "Sharon? What are you doing here"? He asked her. It was late she should be at home sleeping. He was gonna ask her to come in but she stopped him before he could say anything.
"Does Chelsea know about our night together"? She asked her voice shaking. Adam sighed, "No she doesn't, and she won't ever know we both agreed we would never tell anybody", he told her keeping his voice down. "So what you don't think about that night ever"? She asked him getting angry. "Look Sharon I try not to. I can't okay? I just got back my family I cannot lose them again", he said trying to keep his anger in check.
Sharon looked at him before she bursted into tears. She threw the test at him, "Congratulations", was all she said before running out of the building. Adam picked up the test he saw the plus sign, he was shocked, and realized he needed to make this right. He closed the door grateful Chelsea, and Connor were asleep then he went after Sharon.
When he found her she was in her car crying he opened the door, and got in. "Go away please you've done enough", she said bitterly. He sat there not knowing what to say,"Is it mine"? He asked. He knew it was. In his heart he knew but he needed to hear it from her. "Of course it's yours you idiot. It can't be anybody else's because I haven't been with anybody else", she snapped. 'Ouch', he thought. He saw the pissed off look she gave him, 'Okay she's pissed, and she has every right to be', he thought again.
"I'm sorry okay? I am so, so sorry", he said. Sharon stopped crying she was done crying, and feeling sorry for herself this wasn't about her, or Adam it was about their baby together. Their baby. When they were together they didn't talk about having kids but she always wanted a family with him. But then they broke up, moved on to other people. She went back to Nick, and he went back to Chelsea when he found out about Connor being his. They were done they had to be right? They broke up for a reason. Now they were going to end up hurting two people who they claimed to love.
"Nick came back. He wants to get back together. I didn't give him an answer after all how was I suppose to tell him about this"? She asked pointing to her stomach. "I don't know Sharon. I really don't", Adam said softly.
"I'm done hurting him Adam. In fact I'm done hurting people with my choices", she said. "I know. Do you still love him"? He asked. Sharon nodded her head yes. Adam sighed, "Then you should go back to him", he told her. Sharon stared at the steering wheel, "And pass the baby off as his, and when it comes early hope he doesn't question it", Sharon said. "Yeah. But only if you want to", Adam said.
Sharon nodded. There was nothing else to do. He was married, he had his own family to think about. She had no right to ruin that , "Okay then we'll do that. Go back to your family Adam they need you more than I do. I'll be alright", she said. She placed her hands over her stomach,"We both will", she said quietly. "Alright then", he said with a sigh. "Everything is going to work out for the best I promise", he said, then he got out of the car. "Good night Adam", she said. "Good night Sharon", he said, and with that he closed the door. She drove off as Adam watched her go with his baby. He walked back into the apartment.
Sharon got home, and Nick was sitting there still. He got up, and hugged her. She hugged him back then said, "The answer is yes Nick. I want to try again", she told him. He looked at her then smiled, "Great this is going to work out you'll see", he said. They kissed then went upstairs. While Nick laid there asleep Sharon laid there awake. Knowing this was only the start of a huge lie.
