It'd been two years since they'd lost their child… two years since they're marriage had begun to dissolve. Two years…
Courtney had had faith in her marriage to Jason… even still… but they were two broken people. They're loss had been too great… they're pain too incredible… Courtney was having difficulty believing that faith alone was enough to keep their marriage intact.
Courtney lied in bed at night with him beside her… yet he was a million miles away.
At times, Courtney had thought it to be because of her mistake that they were the way that they were. After all, she'd been the person to withhold that information from him… but that had never been her intention. How was Courtney to know that she'd be kidnapped and forced to jump ship?
But maybe they had a chance…
"Courtney, you're six weeks pregnant." Dr. Meadow's words had echoed inside of Courtney's head over and over until that's all that she could hear. Pregnant… how could she be pregnant? She'd been told that she was unable to bare children…
"Congratulations, Mrs. Morgan, you're going to be a mother." Dr. Meadow's smiled.
Courtney was going to be a mother… Jason was going to be a father… it had to have been a dream?
"Are you positive?" Courtney managed to choke out, in her astonishment. Her heart was pounding in her ears and her blood was rushing through her veins as she waited for Dr. Meadow's reply.
"Positive… you're pregnant, Courtney." She said, reaching across the table and taking Courtney's hand and squeezing it. Dr. Meadow's saw the look of shock and excitement written across Courtney's face.
"Uh, thank you, Dr. Meadows, for telling me." Courtney smiled, finally able to catch her breath and form a complete sentence.
The following minutes had been a blur to Courtney but she managed to arrive at the penthouse to talk to Jason. Courtney called out for him, as she closed the door. She was still in complete and utter shock over the news she'd just received.
"What's going on?" Jason asked, appearing in front of her – she hadn't a clue as to where he'd just come from. "Courtney?"
"Um… I just got back from the doctor's office."
Jason nodded along with her, "Is everything okay?"
"I'm pregnant, Jason… I'm six weeks pregnant." Courtney said, as the truth seeped into both of their bones. She was pregnant… she was carrying a child that they'd created together… a little piece of both of them. "Jason, say something…"
"Are you positive?" Jason asked, as Courtney smiled and laughed at him. "What?"
Courtney shook her head and covered her mouth. He wouldn't understand… "Yeah, I'm positive… we're going to have a baby, Jas."
"Well, that's great!" Jason exclaimed, his blue eyes lighting up. Courtney's eyes couldn't help but light up along with his as he threw his arms around her and swung her around the room. Maybe, there was hope for them… just maybe.
