Stephanie's Heart –
(A/N – Hey everyone! Stephanie's conversation with DJ felt very unfinished. So, I decided to expand it. SPOILERS: Eps. 2 & 8 of Fuller House. Rated T for subject matter & to be safe).
I own nothing except Travis, Missy, and the expansion of the storyline. Any similarities are purely coincidental, and no infringement is intended.
Thanks! Please Review! ~The Rising Phoenix~)
Chapter #1 – What Wasn't Said
Present Time –
"Look who's getting sucked into the vortex of motherhood." DJ teased lovingly.
I felt my heart shatter into a million pieces all over again.
…"I found out awhile ago, it's just not gonna happen for me…"
"I was in England, and you had just lost your husband…" I explained.
After our huge group hug, I said goodnight to Kimmy, Ramona, Jackson and Max, once again leaving DJ, baby Tommy, and me in the room.
"Are you going to be okay?" DJ asked with concern, s I held tightly, but lovingly onto Tommy.
"Yeah, I suppose I'm still dealing. I'm okay most days, and others, it just hurts."
I kissed Tommy on the head, and tucked him into his crib, laying a loving hand on his head a moment more, in longing once again for what I can no longer have.
After a moment, I turned, hugged DJ and thanked her for her support.
I made my way downstairs to the basement, and into bed.
I felt sick, so I crawled into bed.
Laying down, I cried my eyes out.
After I felt I had no more tears to cry for the time being, I stared up at the ceiling.
I fell into a fitful sleep.
I told her. I told DJ.
But I only told her half of my secret.
It wasn't just that I couldn't have kids…
It was because I miscarried.
And I didn't even know I was pregnant.
(A/N: Please Review and stay tuned for the next chapter! ~TRP~)
