A/N: as I said I would write another chapter if I had reviews and how I do what I promise, here, and thanks to all the reviews
Chapter 10 – emotions
Sanctuary
Helen was lying in the beds of the infirmary , had now been 1 hour since the blackout.
John and Ashley were talking in a corner
"So ... together? It seems you had a great time. "She says
"Ashley I know you're surprised perhaps even angry that I and your mother get involved ... it's very normal to think that way! "John told her firmly, Ashley sighed and replied to it
"It's not that ... I just was surprised, perhaps jealous, a little lonely, it was always me and her, no one, I mean we have the big one and all, but now I come home and find a pregnant mother of one ... "she suddenly stopped ... but jonh realized what she meant and he finished it
"A murderer!" He said coldly, "you can say is entirely true Ashley" she felt guilty and tried to correct.
"I just want her to be happy, I do not want you to go away and leave her alone and pregnant again with her heart broken ... she never gave anybody completely, I also kept shooting them out of here, but my point is that thou do it happy, you to do what you should have done many years ago, "
he was glad she had accepted, within the possible relationship between the mother and father.
"I know I did and said much that I'm not proud but I am deeply sorry and even angry with myself because of what did your mother go, my conscious mind does not let go a day without remembering it," he told her
He had lived all these years looking for them, folding time and space to find them, trying to build the image of a family that was his, or that should have been, ever tried to imagine the child.
He did not know if it was a girl or a boy but imagine the face, hair color, it was brown like his, or blonde like Helen, his or her eyes, blue as they certainly both have blue eyes, science is not wrong, the children would be born with the blue eyes .
At the time he and Helen planned to have at least three children, a blessed marriage, a house and live happily ever after for all eternity he said, but what happened was a very different reality, more than a century of bitterness , pain, sadness, a broken heart and a soul denigrate
So was the life of Montague John Druitt, but now he decided that he came from poverty, cowardice and frustration, the man he has already passed from existence, he was now a new man ready to love, care and devote the rest of my life him the woman he loves.
"Ashley I promise I'll make your mother happy, but if you prefer I go away and never come back ... I do not want a woman who loves me and a daughter who hates me ... I prefer to lose both, not a choice but an obligation ... "ashley were touched by his words;
she knew he was partially changed or he tried to rebuild the heart of her mother caught all the pieces of her heart and pasting little by little each piece in place, her mother had right to be happy, to enjoy the love more than anyone, she knew it would be selfish,
The people she loved most in the world was the mother, and when someone tried to harm it would always be around to defend it, but this man is different, it would not get to kill him, she would resist the killer instincts and let go ... but the opportunity to promote change? Maybe, maybe not but who was she to judge or decide anything?
"Dad the only thing I ask is that you please do not hurt my mother, ever again, or I will be forced to do what I do not want to do!" She lied, little by little she knew that her father it would win her heart, later or earlier.
"I do it myself if I ever hurt your mom whether intentionally or not!" He found a fact
Will was already concerned with helen, had already spent an hour and she was not back, so he decided to assess the situation.
"Big one, I'll be back" the only thing he received, again, it was a grunt, he complained.
By passing in the halls he hears a noise coming from the rooms, he first surprised but then decided to see if there was something or someone.
"Hey ... is anyone there?" He asked, his voice a little shaken, entering the room he saw a shadow and tried to approach from behind. He takes a pitcher who was on the table, and even to raise the pitcher, the figure turns to him
"Ahhh" cry both at the same time
"Will?"
"Henry?" They say while the name of each other
"What the hell are you doing here?" Will ask smiling and hugging his friend.
"I? Or just passing through, What you think? this is my room! "
"Oh is it? I did not notice it, then come back when we try to find you there 3 months after you disappeared from the map, "he said gesturing with the hands" nothing at all, nay .. "he he could go on, if it were not so drunk that not remember more words
"Ok ok ... I've noticed is all happened so fast I barely had time to rescue Ashley"
"Ashley? She died, gone, passed away ... I do not know if you know but the dead can not return 'Henry surprised that he was so receptive
"Will you drank?" Will tried to balance and focus on the face of Henry
"I? No.. ok ok just a little ... no big deal then where were we .. oh ashley as I said .. "Henry sat on the edge of the bed and tried to talk to him
"Sure! ... Ashley's downstairs living and good health, but Magnus saw her and passed out, I'm a little worried, I did not know she was pregnant, and you said that she and" Ripper "had slept together, but eventually this is too much ... "he told will
"Is .. but it's true, she decided to spend the rest of life with him and all these things ... "he said, falling out of bed and sitting on the floor" oh man ... I think I drank too much ... oh "will say getting opening and closing his eyes
"Ohh come here! "Henry dragged him to the bathroom and turned on the cold water
"What are you ..." before he could finish his sentence, Henry put it in the shower "ahhh ... shit is cold ..." Henry laughed at the situation, Will responded as if to drown
"Is good? Ohhh no longer be so dramatic, you are a man or a mouse? ... "Will still jump into the cold shower.
"Ok enough is enough .. "Henry off the cold water and gives him a towel to clean it
"Satisfied now? I'm wet, cold .. "he sneezes" and probably with the flu, and will answer your question I am a man, a man, "he raises his hand to appear in the sentence.
Henry laughed at him, and embraced Will, who reciprocated with pleasure
"Henry my man, was already miss you, seriously .."
Back to Infirmary
John and Ashley waited patiently Helen woke up, they had already done an ultrasound to see if the baby was fine. They heard the baby's heartbeat and could also see the gender, ashley felt amazed to hear the heart of a being so small that barely distinguishable on the display of the machine, she had made a huge effort to see,
John cried, to see the precious being who was not born but that he loved with all his heart, she finally begins to show signs of consciousness. Ashley leaned in a corner where her mother could not see, she could have another relapse, and Ashley did not want anything to happen to her or the baby.
"My love?" Jonh question carefully, Helen tries to get up but he pushes it down "quiet helen, you fainted, it's okay now?" she opens and closes her eyes in confusion, she sighs
"Hmmm, I .. I'm fine, really .. just thought I see ... "she shakes her head" no forget, I'm fine John ,and you need not worry ok? "he looked at her uncomfortable, she surprised by the look of it, and shrinks the brow
"I saw her, didn`t I?," she asks, praying that he responds to yes
"Yes, yes indeed you saw Ashley!" She was listless for a few seconds; her eyes began to fill with tears, her heart beating stronger and stronger.
"Helen calm down, this is not good for the baby is quiet ..." she tried to get out of bed, put her legs out
How? ... It is crazy ... I saw her die John, I saw .. "she suddenly stopped when ashley comes out of the place and look in the eyes of her mother, Helen froze in time, several questions arose in her mind: how? When? How long would she live? And several others.
"Mom? ..." she said, tears falling on her face, she just wanted to hug her mother, kissing, consoling her for all these months of suffering, to see the face of the mother, she knew that her death affected Helen in a way severe, profound, striking
"Ashley? "Helen question in the attempt, still afraid to be a dream, like so many others when she tried to grab her daughter, she just disappeared, it was a ghost misleading, a lie made up her mind only to alleviate the pain she felt every minute of every day
"Yes ... I'm really here ... I'm here mom .. I can? "before she could say anything else, Helen threw herself into the arms of Ashley, weeping, kissing her daughter, sobbing, John watched it all unmoved, a unique moment, the reunion of mother and daughter as he dreamed ... able to give a gift of her, their daughter back.
"All is well! It's okay mom ... I don`t go away, no more. "that she was sure perhaps because her mother have to hold it so tight that she was afraid she cannot breathe, who cares? She is in the arms of her mom! Everything else is subjective.
"Are you even here?" Helen asked, afraid of the answer, but the words were comforting to her heart once destroyed, smashed, broken.
"I am, this is real ... oh mom I missing you so much" she nuzzled her forehead will of her mother.
"I also missing you my love, I really missing you " ashley she kisses her forehead and hugs again, never wanting to leave her, ashley also felt it.
"How are you? It's all right with you, you got a wound, let me take a look .. "Helen said, looking for evidence of wounds, bruises or abrasions.
"I'm fine mom, but you gotta worry about is this little boy, not me," Helen was surprised to hear the baby's sex.
"Boy?" she asks this time facing him, his smile said it all;
"When you fall on the floor, me and Ashley did an ultrasound to make sure that the baby was fine, then I saw it was a boy .." Helen never letting his daughter, but stretching out her hand for him to join them, he reluctantly felt that it should work now, but what he most wanted was to hug his wife and daughter, one thing he had dreamed of, since the darkest days of his life.
"Come on dad, I want to hug you too!" Helen looked at her so amazed.
"Dad?" She asks ashley did not notice the issue.
"Yeah! He is my father, after all he is my father "John grabbed the two, kissing the top of her head, and then in the face of Helen who was with her head resting on his chest.
"You lied to me!" Helen told him, to be apprehensive jonh pulled away a little of her.
"I what?" He did not understand
"You said you could not give me the gift I wanted, but gave me two gifts, she and him" the expression of his face relaxed, he smiled and received in exchange smiles~
"Are you happy helen?" She came to him, touched her lips to his, and kissed him ... the sweet taste of it, she never forgets the taste of it. she can live a thousand years, but never forget the taste of it
"Yehhhh ... get a room! Please!" Ashley said, to see her parents kissing each other was something new and beautiful to see, but she did not need to witness this event. They smiled at each other, but Helen remembered that had not responded
"Yes! I'm happy… now I am! "
