Pretty uneventful chapter if i say so myself and also, would you guys be so kind as to check out my fic, Silent Screams? its Binks centric and future BAM. anyway, later days ppl. oh and review plz?
Maggie pov.
Alright, there is only one reason she is in here. One. And that's because she says somethin could happen to Nicky. Oh he'll kill me if I call him that out loud.
"There are people that want him dead." Lena says. There are people that want you dead too...oh wait that's just me. For what she's put Bianca through I'd be more than happy to help her get dead. Bianca. That beautiful, big hearted, sometimes dense, woman who has stolen my heart. But how do I tell her? Am I ready for what it could mean? Is she ready? Can we be together? Wha-
"Stone!" I hear my name yelled and whip around to stare at Binks.
"Hmm?" I respond smartly. She nods her head toward the door and I see Nic standing there arms crossed over his chest glaring daggers at Lena. "C'mon Squirt." I say. He doesn't budge when I grab his elbow.
"Go ahead Nic." Bianca tries. He shakes his head.
"Nah, I wanna know why I'm in danger and I'm sure it'll be a damn good reason." and whack the back of his head. Where did Kendall come from. "Darn good. I meant darn good." he corrects. Heh. Poor baby.
"Now, Nic is in trouble or something?" Kendall asks. She sets her gaze on Lena and I try not to snicker at the uncomfortable look on her face.
"Yes. There are many people who want control of Cambias Industries. Since that go-"
"Whoa, pause the presses babe. I don't have control over Cambias. For one, I'm not eighteen. For two, it wasn't his company to give away, grandpa's still kickin. And for three, I would have sold it." nic interrupts.
"Well, looks like you gotta go now." I say happily. Bianca shoots me this look. Oh c'mon! She's still got feelings for this...this....ugh. I hold my hands up in surrender.
"This just in, Alexander Cambias, Senior has just given control of Cambias Industries to Ryan Lavery who has been his right hand man through so much." how unprofessional of this reporter. But convenient.
"Oh, now they can try and kill Ryan." Nic says. He sees all our faces. "Sorry." he says. He flips off the tv and picks up Bianca's salad. He stares at her for a minute before she gets annoyed.
"Wha-" and there's food in her mouth now. He just smiles triumphantly. That's my little buddy.
"Nic, what are you doing?" Kendall asks but she sounds so amused.
"Feeding the baby." Nic says innocently. Aww.
"Aww, well the baby says thank you." Bianca says. Who can resist this boy?
"You're still here?" greenlee rudely asks Lena. Lena just ducks her head and leaves.
"Bianca, I am sorry." she says one last time before leaving. I shake my head and shut the door and turn back to Binks.
"Isn't that one'a the cutest things you've ever seen?" I hear from my side. I glance at Greenlee and Kendall then follow their line of vision. Aww.
Nic pov.
I'm talkin to the baby right now.
"Heya kiddo, I'm your brother. Well...cousin. Yeah let's go with that. I know it's confusin." I start. "But maybe one day somebody will explain it to ya." I continue. I can tell Bianca's trying not to laugh but that's alright. I want the baby to know who I am when it comes out and stuff so I'm startin early. Even though some people think it's silly. "So here's how it's gonna happen. If you're a boy, I'm gonna save ya from your mom. She's a nice lady and all but she's so girly. She couldn't tell you the difference between football and baseball if she tried. She might pop a brain cell." and I'm serious. I love Binks to death but she's not a sports person. And everybody should love sports. "And if you're a girl, I'm still gonna save ya. I'll teach ya all about football, and whatever other sports you like. Oh, and no matter what they tell ya, cheer leading is not a sport. I repeat, not a sport." gotta tell the kid early so she or he, wont be confused and stuff. I know that the grown ups are talking about something around me but not what they should be. "Just between you and me?" I ask. I wait for the baby to respond, "Grown ups aren't very smart. They dance around stuff when they oughta just own up to it, y'know? But it's alright, I'm working on things on my end. When you come out, they should be a little smarter." I tell the baby. I look up and all the ladies are looking at me with raised eyebrows. "And this is my cue to go, later kiddo." I say kissing Bianca's stomach quickly before making my way towards the door. I'm sure Kenlee is ready to go. Heh, look at me already combining their names. Oh yeah, this is gonna be one interesting family once I get them together.
Kendall pov.
I couldn't help but watch the way Nic was interacting with Bianca's baby. He's really accepting. I think that even if things hadn't worked out the same way, if the baby had wanted to find any long lost siblings in the future, Nic would welcome them with open arms.
"You are the perfect son, y'know that?" I ask him. He glances at me from the passenger seat and smiles brightly.
"You're not a half bad mom either." he says. I feel my heart swell at those words. Mom. I'm a mom. I guess things are finally, and I do mean finally, setting in. "Is Greenlee gonna stay with us tonight?" he asks. I nod quickly.
"Yeah. She just wanted to clear up a few things with Ryan." I tell him. Speaking of Ryan. "How do you feel about him having control of Cambias?" he shrugs.
"I don't really care y'know." he says. I nod. "I'm not a Cambias." he adds. I smile. No, no he isn't.
A few weeks later......
Nic pov.
I'm runnin towards Maggie and Jamie's apartment. I was supposed to be there like... ten minutes ago. I know if I aint there soon, Maggie's gonna send out a search team or something. The past few weeks have been quiet. Mom and Greenlee have been getting closer and stuff. Nothin too earth shattering. I go-
"Maggs! I got an A!" I yell bursting through her door. She's sitting on the couch with her head in her hands. "Maggie?" I try again, all my excitement leaving. I sit beside her and put a hand on her shoulder and she looks up quickly. My eyes dart to her face and I feel hate well inside me. "He hit you?" I ask softly. Her hand flies around her eye and shakes her head quickly.
"N-no. I was clea-" I cut her off.
"Bullshit Maggie! I know a bruise when I see one! I've had enough of them!" I yell. I stand up and look around the apartment and notice his jacket is gone. "I wanna go home." I say. She nods and stands slowly.
"Don't tell anybody. Please Nic, I can handle this." she tries. I can see the guilt in her eyes so I nod.
"I wont tell anybody. But I'm gonna get even." I say. She just sighs and leads me out. When we pull up outside our new condo I hop out. "See ya tomorrow afternoon Maggs." I say. She nods and drives off. I rush up the stairs and bang the front door open. "Sonuvabitch." I mutter.
"Hello." I hear. I look up and see Ryan talking with Greenlee. My eyes narrow when I see Jonathan close by.
"We can help save Fusion." Jonathan says. Then my idea comes. I know exactly how I'm gonna get this bitch back.
"With what money?" I ask. With my grandpa dead, I contest this in court and get control over Cambias. No more easy living for Jon boy. He'll have to get a job, and all that stuff. I'll think of something more when I get there but right now I need his time occupied.
"Cambias ca-" Ryan starts. I cut in and notice Jonathan's eyes darken.
"Is not gonna be under your control for long." I say. And his eyes get darker.
"What?" Ryan questions getting annoyed.
"Before he died, Grandfather was not in the correct frame of mind. He gave you that company under the impression there were no more living relatives of his. All I have to do is have my father's body exhumed and a DNA test ran to prove to you, I am the rightful Heir and I will get that company. You make no more decisions so live it up boys while ya can, cus I don't play fair and if I have to take you to court, you will not enjoy this ride." I say before going into my room. All I need is this company and I can control Jonathan. How? Cus money makes the world go round. He hurt Maggie, I'm gonna hurt him. My door opens and Jonathan walks in.
"You can't just expect to get a company that doesn't belong to you." he says. I stand up.
"Nathaniel Cambias, namesake and heir to the Cambias fortune. I say back off before I show what hanging around the Kane's so long can do to one psyche." I say. His fists clinch and stand my ground. Maybe he needs help. That's what I'll do. Maggie loves him, so I'll get him help. He nods and turns to leave.
"This isn't going to end well." he says.
"But it'll be one hell of a ride." I say. I'm gonna use this money and I'm gonna help him. But so help me if he hurts her again, I'll use the money like its been used for years by Cambias'. To get what I want.
