"Matthew!" Nikolas said as the little boy turned around.
"Oh thank god!" Nikolas said gracing him with a hug.
"Why'd you run away?" Nikolas asked him.
"Because you dont love me anymore and mommy isnt here but very soon she will be." Matthew said as he wiped his tears.
"What do you mean mommy will be here soon?" Nikolas was more interested on where he would get that idea from.
"Beautiful told me that I would be with mommy very soon but not in heaven just give it some time." he said.
"Beautiful?" Nikolas questioned.
"Uncle Jason's friend dad." Matthew answered back.
Jason was coming around the corner about to yell out Courtney but then stopped when he saw Nikolas and Matthew.
Nikolas just looked up at Jason as Matthew turned around.
"Uncle Jason!" Matthew yelled as he ran into him.
"Beautiful was just here!" Matthew said looking at Jason.
"She was?" Jason questioned him.
"Yeah! And she told me that Im going to be with mommy very soon but not in heaven!" He said with excitement.
Jason didn't know how to respond to that one.
"Why are you out here?" Jason questioned him.
"I ran away and then beautiful found me and then daddy found us so she left."Matthew said explaining his story.
"Do you know what way she went?" Jason asked him.
"Yeah. Dad which way did you come?" Matthew asked him.
Nikolas pointed behind him.
"She went that way!" he pointed in the opposite way.
"Thanks." Jason said.
"Hey Jason wait!" Nikolas said.
He wanted to know what was going on.
There were too many things that didn't make sense.
"Yeah?" Jason asked him.
"Explain to me whats going on." Nikolas said.
"I swear to you, you will find everything out very soon until then I gotta go." Jason said.
What the hell did he mean by that? Nikolas wondered.
"Let's go home." Nikolas said lifting Matthew up.
Nikolas put Matthew to bed when they got home.
After all he had fallen asleep on the launch.
Nikolas was confused and wanted to know what the hell was going on.
"Courtney?" Jason asked walking up behind her.
She turned to face him as tears poured from her face.
"Listen Im" was all he got out.
"No your right. We dont belong together and right now the only thing I should focus on is being a part of my son's life." she said as she wiped her tears.
"Let me finish." Jason said as he began to talk again.
"Dont. You're only making things harder for me and playing with my emotions and really I just want my memory back." she said looking up at him.
"Can we go home now?" she asked him as she began to shiver.
He just nodded yes as they walked away.
"Hey." Emily said as she was sitting on his couch when he came back down.
"Hey. Sorry about earlier." Nikolas replied.
"No its fine." Emily said looking over at him.
Emily knew what she had to do yet a part of her wanted to be self-fish and not do it.
But she knew come tomorrow night when everybody knew who beautiful really was she would no longer have Nikolas.
And breaking things off seemed better then getting her heart broken.
"I've been thinking." Emily said as she sat on the couch and didn't make eye contact.
"I like being with you Nikolas. I like being in love with you but I cant do it anymore." Emily said as a tear came from her eye.
"Huh?" Nikolas asked as he sat beside her.
"This constant arguing between me and Matthew and you and Matthew has to stop and the only way to stop it is if we arent together and Im starting to think thats for the best." she said.
"Where's all this coming from Emily?" Nikolas asked confused.
Was he dreaming because nobody was making sense today.
"You will realize that in the long end we werent meant to be obviously and I dont want you to feel obligated to me when really I'll only be second best. Now Im going to leave and please dont stop me. You will just make this harder then it has to be." Emily said as she got up grabbed her coat and walked out the door.
He respected her enough to respect her wishes and not follow her.
Nikolas wanted this night to be over with that was for damn sure.
He walked up the steps and looked in his son's room who was peacefully asleep.
How could somebody so small take up so much of his heart and life?
He went to bed that night and just tossed and turn.
So many things ran through his mind he didn't even know where to begin.
He looked over at the clock which read 4:15.
It was really late and only in a few hours would Matthew be waking up.
Nikolas finally drifted asleep.
He laid on the couch thinking about earlier.
The way she said home made him think.
It was never a home until he shared it with Courtney and it hasn't been a home since she returned.
It was a house.
A penthouse that he shared with Samantha McCall.
The way his heart skipped two beats every time he saw her.
Or the way he was worried like the time she had lost their child.
The look in her eyes and how he use to be able to cure every one of her problems by a simple hug.
Kiss.
And an I love you.
All those things didn't work anymore.
He hurt her bad this time and any chance of them getting back together after her memory got back seemed to fade from his mind like Sam did these past couple of days.
The days he shared with the blonde that once stole his heart.
Was it possible she just did it again and he didn't realize it until now?
