Please review! Thanks for all the reviews so far!
Amanda walked slowly into the hospital. She was upset that Peter couldn't come to the first ultrasound but she understood why.
She walked slowly up to the desk to find where she was supposed to be.
"Well hello again. What? You stalking me?" asked Heath. Amanda turned, not in the mood to talk to him.
"What are you doing here?" asked Amanda curious.
"Trying to support my little brother." He said. Amanda turned away. "Aw c'mon you could at least be civil." He pointed out.
"I'm not in the mood Heath. Just leave me alone!" she snapped. He held up his hands.
"I was only being friendly." He muttered before walking away. Amanda was shown to a room where the ultrasound took place.

Charlie and Watson walked into the hospital on their way to visit Ruby and Martha. They needed to interview Ruby and tell Martha something.
They went to Martha first.
"Hi." Said Martha when she saw them coming in. she was waiting for Jack. She had decided to take Charlie's advice.
"Hi. Can we talk to you for a moment?" asked Charlie. Martha nodded and Charlie continued. "We have just checked at the pizza parlour and it turns out the footage form the night of your attack has been stolen."

Amanda walked cheerfully away from the hospital. She stared lovingly down at the ultrasound picture. She couldn't believe that little baby was growing inside her! She opened her bag and dropped it in and then took out her car keys.
Suddenly she was grabbed from behind! A gloved hand covered her mouth while another hand covered her eyes. Fear took over her. She struggled against the attacker but they were too strong for her. she was dragged down by a car and she continued to struggle but no one came…

Charlie and Watson left Ruby's room. Charlie felt strange interviewing her daughter like that but she had no choice. She hated hearing her daughter have to recount exactly what had happened to her.
As the left the building they talked about possible motives.
"Well all we know so far is that the attacker attacks at night." Said Watson. Suddenly she stumbled over something lying on the ground! There was a foot lying beside a car. Charlie rushed around the car to find Amanda lying there covered in blood. Quickly they called over help and Amanda was taken inside.
"Well there goes that theory." Said Watson. "If this guy's willing to attack someone in broad daylight with police officers hanging… he's more dangerous than we thought!"

Inside Martha sat doing exactly as Charlie had suggested. She told Jack everything.
Meanwhile Peter rushed through the hospital after hearing what had happened to his wife.
"Amanda Baker!" he demanded to the receptionist.
"Peter! Over here!" called Charlie. He raced over to her.
"Where is she? Is she okay? What happened?"
"She's in there with the doctor at the moment. We don't know how she is. We don't know what happened. We found her by a car beaten." He looked shocked.
"You don't think…" he trailed away.
"We don't know." replied Charlie.

After half an hour of antagonising waiting the doctor came out. Peter was straight to his feet.
"Is she okay?" he asked urgently.
"She'll live. But I'm afraid she has been raped." He said.
"Is the baby okay?" asked Peter. Charlie looked surprised. She of course hadn't known the Amanda was pregnant.
"I'm afraid she lost the baby."

April, Lucas, Matilda and Irene were having dinner. Though Lucas had protested Irene insisted he have his dinner with them. And to say it was uncomfortable would be an understatement.
"Well I think I'm going to go and see Ruby now." Said April breaking the silence.
"Aw give her my best." Said Irene taking her own plate and April's to the sink.
"You wanna come?" she asked Lucas.
"Sure." He replied happy to be able to get out of his ex-girlfriend's way.
That evening after April and Lucas had been to see Ruby, who was coping a lot better than expected considering her situation, they stood in the doorway making out when Matilda walked in the back door.
"Oh sorry to intrude." She said before walking away to her bedroom. Lucas excused himself and left. April sighed and left for bed.

Drew came to visit Ruby after April and Lucas.
"hey." He said.
"Hi." She said smiling. Casey just nodded. He hadn't told Ruby what he had seen yesterday but he could just sense the attraction between Ruby and Drew.
"So how ya doing?" asked Drew taking the seat opposite Casey.
"Fine. Can't wait to get outta here though." She replied. Both Drew and Casey were amazed at how she dealed with everything that had happened. They couldn't understand how she did it. Casey stood up and left saying he was getting a drink. Drew watched him go. He turned back to Ruby. He tried to ignore the obvious bruises and cuts on her arms and face. No matter what she said nothing could change how guilty he felt.
She noticed what he was looking at.
"Hey. Stop blaming yourself. This isn't your fault." She said. Casey returned and said that Brax was here to bring him home. He asked Drew if he needed a lift but Drew replied saying his dad was coming for him. Casey left reluctantly.
"You know I hate seeing the way he looks at me. Like I'm contaminated." Said Ruby once Casey had left.
"I'm sure he doesn't think that." replied Drew.
"He does. I can see it in his eyes." She said. "You know it's bad enough I can't even close my eyes without having him treating me like a freak…" she said, tears in her eyes.
"What do you mean you can't even close your eyes?" he asked.
"Whenever I close my eyes I'm back there. And I can't stop it." She said. Drew knew she needed to talk about it so he let her go on. "I remember everything so vividly. I remember how helpless I felt. I couldn't stop him. And no one came when I screamed. When he… when he stopped he just stared and me and laughed…" she said tears streaming down her face. "He told me that i… that I needed to lighten up and I was… too uptight for him… that I should enjoy it." She said tears coming in deep sobs now. "He said I needed to be punished for not enjoying it and I screamed so he took out a baseball bat… and he kept hitting me… and he wouldn't stop!" she cried. The teas became too much and she couldn't talk anymore. Drew put his arm around her. He just held her as she sobbed. He felt fury like never before when he thought of the man that had done this. He vowed that whoever had done this would pay.
