Hello, I missed getting your reviews so I thought why not update! I hope you all enjoy this chapter! Let's get right into it!
Kathrine Martin- Karlie Kloss (model)
Gracie Martin- Abigail Breslin ( I know she had brown hair when she was little, but she has blonde hair now. So imagine her with blonde hair)
sorry for any missed error's
Sam looked at the little girl unable to catch his breath. His heart had stopped at one point and suddenly he saw his hand in front of his face grabbing the picture from the little girl. He brought the Polaroid picture closer to his face thinking maybe this was all a figure of his imagination and all of this was fake, it was all just a really bizarre dream.
"What's your Mommy's name?" asked Sam.
"Kathrine Martin" she replied quietly.
"Kathrine Martin the super model?" blurted Mercedes.
Sam jumped, he had forgotten his pregnant girlfriend was standing behind him watching all of this unfold. The little girl nodded in response and Mercedes couldn't help but roll her eyes.
Mercedes wasn't pissed about little girl arriving, she was pissed about the super model fact of it all. First Tiffany, a skinny black women who was crowned Miss. Universe a few years ago. And now Kathrine, an international super model. Mercedes wondered when she was ever going to catch a break.
"What's your name, sweetie?" asked Sam thinking maybe he should get her name.
"Gracie Martin" she replied batting her long eye lashes and instantly making Sam's heart melt, she was a cutie pie.
"And where is your mother?" asked Sam standing up straight briefly to pull Gracie inside and close the front door. He soon went back into a kneeling position in front of her and waited for her to reply.
"Across the pond" she replied.
Sam arched his brow, "Across the pond?"
She nodded, "The national tea party place…it has a star on its flag".
"…You mean England?" asked Sam.
The little girl stared blankly at Sam and Sam stared back. She had green eyes, just like him. She had blonde hair, just like him. Her lips were big, just like him. Sam nodded, "You mean England" he confirm.
Suddenly footsteps could be heard coming down the stairs. Scarlet and Johnny came down giggling.
"Mama, Sam, I'm hungry" announced Johnny. "What's for dinner?" he added.
"Who's this?" asked Scarlet seeing the little blonde girl.
"A visitor… she's gonna be staying with us tonight" he replied quickly.
"Where's her parents? … Who are her parents?" asked Scarlet sensing her father was hiding something.
"Umm…" said Sam getting stammered.
"The neighbors, they needed an emergency babysitter" said Mercedes chiming in to save Sam's ass before Scarlet ripped him a new one.
"That's strange" remarked Johnny.
"Agreed" exclaimed Scarlet watching her father like a hawk.
Sam needed to change the subject, "How about pizza? Everyone likes pizza". Sam then felt a tug on his pants leg, he looked down and saw Gracie doing the 'come here' motion with her index finder. Sam bent down to her level and Gracie leaned into his right ear to whisper.
"I can't have cheese. Mommy says my tummy get upset…lactose" she whispered.
Sam nodded at her and stood back up, "Gracie can't have cheese… or dairy for that matter" announced Sam.
"Gracie? … Gracie can't have diary" said Scarlet with a slight attitude.
"That's what I said".
"Well, you guys have fun with your cheese less pizza. I'm going to Ryan's" said Scarlet shaking her car keys and walking towards the door.
"But it's 9:00" exclaimed Sam.
"He has a history test tomorrow, if I don't help him he will write his essay about how George Bush's Gettysburg address speech was a profound moment in history" said Scarlet walking out the door. "Love you" she added before shutting it and walking to the comet.
"So are we gonna order pizza or not?" asked Johnny wants Scarlet was gone.
"Yes we are, Gracie why don't you go with Johnny and watch a movie while Mercedes and I order the pizza" said Sam hoping Johnny would take to her kindly.
"Okay, I'll let you pick the movie. I have The Incredibles and Despicable Me" he said with a friendly smile.
"Minions" smiled Gracie for the first time… she had his smile, thought Sam looking at the little girl smile. He was in some deep shit.
When the kids were gone Sam quickly looked at Mercedes and wore worried eyes, "Are you pissed? You're pissed! I completely understand if you are"
"I'm not pissed Sam…I'm overwhelmed" replied Mercedes. "We went from each of us having one kid to you having two kids, and then were gonna have three kids. Sam that's six fucking kids, in less than a year I have gone from one kid to six of them" she added.
"I know and I'm sorry, I am so sorry… you claim Scarlet?" asked Sam realizing.
"You bet your pretty ass I do. No matter how emotionally damaged she is, I love that girl" said Mercedes walking into the kitchen and retrieving a pizza menu.
"Wow that means a lot" said Sam feeling of warm and fuzzy inside.
"Do you claim Johnny?" asked Mercedes.
"Of course, I take him to school every day, we draw, talk, read, he's my buddy… I never realized how much I missed that age. Scarlet is so independent, which is great. But she doesn't need me. Johnny, he still needs us" he replied.
"Scarlet needs you more than anything. She will always need you, don't forget that" said Mercedes before dialing the pizza number and putting the phone to her ear and ordering.
While Mercedes was on the phone ordering dinner Sam took it upon himself to call Kathrine. He prayed she still had the same number. It had been almost four years since he seen or heard from her and she had a lot of explaining to do. Sam unlocked his iPhone and found Kathrine's phone number in his contacts. He couldn't believe he still had the number, now he just had to hope it was the same. Sam pressed the phone picture and put his iphone to his ear. The phone ranged three times before it was answered.
"Hello" said the voice Sam barely remembered.
"Kathrine? It's Sam"
"Yeah, I have caller id" she replied.
Sam brought the phone away from his ear and looked at it as if it was foreign object. It was the perfect 'I know this bitch didn't' face. "Then you should know why I'm calling. Gracie is at my house. Mind explaining to me what the hell is going on?"
"Sam, I'm I don't have time for this. I'm at a shoot" exclaimed Kathrine.
"Well, you better make time. This is more important, explain everything" he said a little sternly.
She sighed annoyed, "We had sex almost four years ago-"
"No shit, fast forward" said Sam getting annoyed
"I got pregnant and I have been taking care of her for four years. But I need to go back to work. I don't have time for her. I honesty need my fucking life back, so when someone called me saying that they knew where Gracie's father was I jumped on the opportunity and shipped her to wherever you are" she replied.
"Wait someone called you?" asked Sam.
"Yeah…Lion- or wait no Leo. He said his name was Leo. He said he would fly Gracie to her father and that you would keep her full time until she's 18. Which is exactly what I need" said Kathrine.
Sam's eyes grew dark green. He was beyond pissed. Leo was trying to dig up his skeletons and Kathrine was a poor ass excuse for a mother. "So, you don't even know if I'm her father?"
"I mean- does it matter?" asked Kathrine.
"Yes, it fucking matters. You don't just need your fucking kid to be with strangers" yelled Sam.
Kathrine sighed, "Look your one of the eight guys I slept with that week. When I met you, you were nice so I thought why not. She might now have your blonde hair but she might have something else of yours".
"She does have blonde hair you dumb bitch" said Sam hanging up. Sam grunted wanting so badly to punch something. Kathrine and Leo were people who did not deserve to be on this earth and he was sick of people like them getting the long silver spoon in their mouth.
At Ryan's house, Scarlet and Ryan was in his room studying and eating dinner. Ryan had cooked and Scarlet was enjoying a bowl of Ryan's shrimp pasta. With Ryan's grandmother being sick he had learned how to cook a meal by the time he was in seventh grade.
"So, Abraham Lincoln had slaves but he's known has one of the greatest presidents? … That's a bunch of shit" said Ryan.
"That's right" said Scarlet.
"But he had slaves" exclaimed Ryan.
"I know, but he treated them kindly" said Scarlet eating another spoon full of pasta.
"But they were slaves, in my world that's not fucking okay. Those were people, not fucking animals. Those people had feelings, and I'm sure given the opportunity dreams" said Ryan getting a little hostile.
"Scarlet giggled, "Babe, I agree with you…I gotta say I love when you get passionate about your studies. It's a turn on".
Ryan's face expression softened and he smirked, "Thanks" he said adding a chuckle at the end.
"How's your grandmother been?" asked Scarlet thinking of when they first met and the incident that happened.
Ryan's face went from serious to relax to back to serious, he exhaled before answering. "She's good, we had an episode earlier but she's good… I have to keep her on this strict schedule so she doesn't have an episode".
"How do you get all of her medication? Doctor Offices don't give heavy drugs to minors" asked Scarlet.
"Her doctor's office is two towns over, I gave a fake address. And I have a fake ID that says I'm 22" replied Ryan. A silence fell between the two and Scarlet saw real compassion in him. She felt so lucky to be with someone who was so considerate and so mature. Sometimes she felt Ryan was more mature than her. "I know what you're thinking…lame way to use a fake ID, right?" he said adding a chuckle at the end.
"No" said Scarlet quickly. She put her food down and moved closer to Ryan on his bed. She took his arm and wrapped it around herself. Ryan moved the textbook and 1 subject notebook from his lap. "Ry, I think you are the most loving person on this earth…Sometimes I wish had some of your qualities. Your strong, caring, loving, you would drop anything for your friends and family".
"You're all those things too. Scar, you have been through a lot of shit… a lot of shit and most people would give up if they were in your shoes. That's part of the reason why I'm attracted to you" said Ryan.
"Because I'm damaged goods?" exclaimed Scarlet offended.
Ryan looked into her eyes, "No, cause you're a fighter".
Scarlet's eyes fluttered at his choice of words and felt special. He called her a fighter, which made her heart beat skip. She had been called a fighter before, but when Ryan called her one it felt much more special and important. Scarlet's expression sadden when she thought about Mr. McDonald, he had crept into her thoughts and reminded her that she wasn't a fighter.
"What's the matter? I don't like it when you stop smiling" said Ryan watching her face expression change. "Is something going on?" he added.
Scarlet nodded her head yes. Ryan looked at her telling her to go on and Scarlet feared if he would believe her or no. People lied about this type of stuff every day and she didn't want to be mistake for another crying wolf. "Mr. McDonald" said Scarlet.
"Your chemistry teacher, right?" asked Ryan.
"Yeah… he um, he makes me uncomfortable" she replied.
"I heard he's a bit of a creep, I didn't get him last year so I wouldn't truly know" said Ryan.
"But it's more than that, he's more than a creep" remarked Scarlet.
"Explain" said Ryan wanting to know exactly what was going on.
"…He, he looks at me. He says things to me…He t-touches me" said Scarlet fearfully.
Ryan eyes immediately went angry when he heard the word touch. He tried to get off the bed and start his hunt for looking Mr. McDonald but Scarlet quickly stopped him.
"Nooo, what are you doing?" she asked franticly.
"Gonna go find out where he lives and kick his ass. No one touches my girl" he said angry.
"That's sweet, and very heroic of you. But it's our word against his. He's in adult he will find a way to win" said Scarlet scared.
Ryan looked into Scarlet's eyes, "How long as this been going on?"
"Not long, a week or two" she replied.
"And your just now telling me?" he yelled
"I was scared no one would believe me. Shit like this happens all the time and there's all these crying wolf stories of girl lying on teachers" she replied.
"But you're not a liar, Scarlet. You would never lie about something like this" exclaimed Ryan.
"I know I'm not. He's just scary and he seems conniving, I'm sure he would find a way to when if I told" said Scarlet.
"If you told? You're telling" he said matter of factly.
Late that night back at Mercedes house, everyone was sound asleep. Sam and Mercedes in her bedroom. Scarlet in the guest room, Johnny in his room and Gracie on the top bunk in Johnny's room. Suddenly out of nowhere Gracie sat up in her sleep and began screaming at the top of her lungs. Johnny jumps out of his sleep and went to the top bunk to see if she was okay. Gracie just sat there screaming with her eyes closed shut. Sam, Mercedes, and Scarlet came busting into the room worried.
"What's wrong?" said Sam.
"I don't know, she just started screaming" said Johnny looking at her slightly freaked out.
Gracie's scream went up an octave and got louder. Sam, Mercedes, Johnny, and Scarlet covered their ears. The scream was so loud it was becoming painful.
"Its night terrors" yelled Mercedes. "Nia had them when she was five" she added.
"Wake her up" yelled Scarlet covering her ears.
"You can't, it will only make it worse for her. We gotta ride it out" she yelled back over the screaming.
"Is there any way we can soother?" yelled Sam.
"No, not really. At least she not running around" yelled Mercedes. She remembered being a child and watching her little sister scream and run around the house at 2 in the morning. She remembered how it would last for hours on end and no one in the house ever got sleep. Luckily Nia's night terrors only lasted a year, Mercedes parents read cases of it lasting up to eight years.
Gracie continued to scream and she soon because to rock back and forth and scream. The little girl put her hands on either sides of her face and continued to scream and rock. Mercedes, Sam, Scarlet and Johnny watched somewhat intrigued.
"It's like she's in a horror movie" said Johnny.
Gracie suddenly stopped and fell back into the bed. She was soundly asleep now and looked like a peaceful child sleeping.
"That was freaky" whispered Johnny.
"She won't remember come morning" remarked Mercedes.
"She won't?" asked Scarlet.
"Nope, she's asleep. Nia never remembered hers, till this day she thinks were lying when we tell her she had night terrors" replied Mercedes.
"Well, she's asleep now. Let's just get some rest. Hopefully she's okay for the rest of the night" said Sam worried. Everyone went back to sleep that night except Sam. He was scarred for his possible little girl.
The next day in Nashville, Beth was cooking up a storm and blasting music. She had woke up that morning deciding she should do something nice for Duke considering he took her in. He could have easily been a rat and called Sam and told him that she was with him.
"You'll always be my baby" sung Beth. The Mariah Carey hit was currently on and she was giving it her all as she grilled the chicken breast on the skillet. Duke walked into the kitchen and stood back watching her. He smiled cause for a moment she want upset or focus on her issues.
"No way you're never gonna shake me- You and I will always" she singed as the song reached the end.
Duke laughed, "What are you doing?" he asked startling her.
Beth jumped and turned around, "Making lunch…I figured I owe you one".
"You owe me more than just one. I could easily call Sam" he exclaimed.
"But you haven't and I appreciate that, I just need some time" said Beth cutting off the eye and began making the grilled chicken sandwich. "Maybe some of your goodness will rub off on me" she added.
"What makes you think I'm so good?" he asked.
"I don't know…I just know" she replied.
"But I'm not, I'm the worst possible influence" he remarked.
"If that's true then you wouldn't be friends with Stacy, Stevie, and Sam" said Beth.
"They're not my friends, they're my family" exclaimed Duke.
"Fine if you're so bad, tell me what's so bad about you? … Please enlighten me" barked Beth.
Duke stared at Beth wondering if he should tell her. He figured he should considering no one was ever up front with her. "I drop out of college and made a record for myself. I robbed a couple gas stations and convenient stores. I went to jail for a year and half and haven't been able to get a job since. No one wants to hire a theft".
"How do you have this apartment?" asked Beth with a changed expression.
"The Evans are the land lords. They own this building, I live rent free" he replied.
Beth felt bad for her assumptions, "Where are your parents?" she asked.
"Mother was never around and my Dad was a construction worker. Died from a freak accident" he replied.
Beth wore sad eyes she stepped closer to him and out her hand on his face, "Duke, you can turn your life around. You can still be something great".
"Oh yeah like what?" he asked.
"Whatever you want. You can do whatever you want, you can go back to college and figure out what makes you happy" she replied.
"Some pipe dream you have for me. That will never happen" he remarked.
"Never say never" she said quietly.
Beth looked into his brown eyes and began to study his features. She hadn't realized how cute he was. She wanted to make their lips touch but feared he wouldn't feel the same. Beth was tired of embarrassing herself. "I'm gonna go take a shower" she whispered leaving and needing some air. Duke exhaled when Beth left and felt the chemistry, he so badly wanted to kiss her.
Moments later after eating his lunch he went into his room to change his shirt for a run. Duke thought maybe working out would cool him off. With Duke bare chested and looking for a fresh shirt, Beth opened the door to the bathroom letting the hot steam out. In just a towel Beth looked in the bathroom mirror and saw Duke behind her staring at her. Beth would be lying if she said she didn't think about dropping her towel. But she was sixteen and he was twenty-three, as much as it felt right a very tiny part of her felt wrong. And for once in her life she decided to go with that very tiny piece of her that felt wrong.
That same day in Lima later that night, Rachel sat in her home broken. It was a little well over 24 hours and Finn hadn't been home. She had called over and over but he wasn't answering. Rachel was more than worried and she felt so stupid for ruining her life. The tears wouldn't stop coming from her eyes and her crying face seemed to be literally painted on her face. With Penelope down for the night Rachel decided to stay up another night and wait for get husband. She would take a sleepless couple of night just so she could see him when he came home. Rachel waited and waited and out of nowhere the door opened and Finn came into the house. Rachel felt a blot of energy and jumped out of her seat. She went rushing to him and began saying any and everything to explain her actions. Finn stared at her not saying a word, he just watched her ramble and go on and on about how sorry and stupid she was. Finn soon had enough of the rambling and picked her up and she was nothing. Because it was second natured Rachel immediately wrapped her legs around his waist and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"Shut up" he said putting her back against a wall and kissing his wife.
"What are you doing, let's talk about this? Don't you hate me?" she asked after putting away from the kiss. Rachel was really confused.
"Rachel, I said shut up" said Finn kissing her again. He then began taking off her clothes, Rachel found herself getting turned on. Finn was never one to really step up and take charge. Finn taking charge was really sexy and Rachel loved it. She began taking off his clothes and within seconds Finn began fucking his wife against their living room wall. Finn laced his fingers in her brown hair and trusted inside of her. Rachel called out his name over and over. She had never experienced forceful or angry sex and had to admit she was enjoying it.
"Harder" she cried out digging her nails into his shoulder.
Her eyes watered because her climax was coming and she didn't want the sheer amazingness to end. Rachel began hugging Finn has he trusted hoping that would make the trust deeper. With her lips by his ear and began apologizing.
"I'm so sorry! I'm an idiot, I want you! Oh fuck, I want you. Don't leave me, please don't leave me. I'm begging you, don't leave me. I need you, I fucking need you".
Rachel and Finn climaxed together and when did, Rachel lost all feeling in her body. She put all her weight on Finn and Finn caught her. He took her to their bedroom and put her in their bed. She instantly fell asleep and Finn laid there wide awake. His eyes soon watered with tears, he had to be this for his wife. He felt as if he had to be someone different just so she could be pleased. He felt himself was no longer good enough.
Two days later Sam showed up to Quinn's practice hoping the result would be in. After her first night in Lima Sam went to Quinn telling her everything, he ask if she could do a DNA test and she accepted knowing someone that could get him fast results. He swabbed the inside of Gracie's cheek and his own and gave the q-tips to Quinn's friend to analyze.
"Are you ready?" she asked with the envelope in her hand.
"Ready as I'll ever be" he replied nervous.
Quinn opened the envelope and read it carefully, "She's not yours" she announced.
"She's not mine?" he asked confused.
"Nope, says right here. Not yours" confirmed Quinn showing him the paper.
Sam grabbed it and looked at it confused. He was prepared for Gracie to be his and now that she wasn't it felt funny. "Are you upset?" asked Quinn.
"Not upset, worried. She's not mine and she needs someone to take café of her. Only god knows who her father is and her mother is a piece of shit.
Quinn had saw that Sam had grown some attachment to Gracie and wanted to make sure she was safe. The little girl had no one to care about her and everyone needs at least one person that gives a shit about them. "She can stay with Puck and I for a little while. We have an empty house. And I could use the company since my kid hates me" said Quinn.
"Really? … Are you sure, I would keep her but we have a lot going on at Mercedes house and she needs a lot of attention" said Sam.
"Attention is what I have to give" replied Quinn.
"But she has night terror's" exclaimed Sam.
"I'm a therapist Sam, I think I can handle night terror's" she remarked.
It was settled, Gracie was going to stay with Quinn and Puck, Sam was going triple check Mercedes was okay even though she claim that she was, and Sam was going to kick Leo's ass for trying to dig up dirt on him.
The end of the week had come and the Friday night football game had ended in torrential rain. Everyone was soaked by the end of the game and it made the victory they had achieved greater. Everyone had left the school and the only ones left was Scarlet, Ryan, and Puck.
"You played a great game tonight" said Puck as they walked the school halls soaked.
"Thank you" he sniffled. "I feel a cold coming on already" he added with a little laugh.
Scarlet was waiting by the locker room for Ryan like she always did. Her hair was wet and her cheerio uniform was clinging to her. She couldn't wait to go home and take a shower. As she was waiting she heard a noise that scared her. Lasted she had checked she was the only one on the school, Scarlet soon brushed it off hoping it was an old pipe. The noise happen again and Scarlet stood scared.
"Ryan" she yelled hoping it was another one of his stupid jokes. "This isn't funny" she added.
Ryan and Puck continue to make their way towards the locker room, they were stopped when they saw a classroom was lit and open.
"Who's still here?" asked Ryan.
"Mr. McDonald, he always stays late on Friday's" he replied.
"He what?" exclaimed Ryan.
"He stays late" said Puck again not seeing the problem.
"Shit!" yelled Ryan.
Suddenly Puck and Ryan heard a scream and Ryan knew it was Scarlet's he began sprinting towards her scream to save his girl. Puck ran behind him trying to figure out what was going on.
"Get off, don't touch me" she yelled.
"Come one Scar, don't be a tease" he said seductively. He pulled on her uniform and ripped the bottom of her skirt.
Scarlet's eyes watered, she was filled with fear. He pulled at her spandexes and opened her leg. "Please don't, please" pleaded Scarlet now crying.
"I love it when they beg" he said licking her neck.
Ryan busted into the classroom they were in and used his football helmet as a weapon. He took his helmet and hit Mr. McDonald in the back as hard as he could. Mr. McDonald went down crying of pain and Ryan and Scarlet began to run.
"We gotta get out of here" yelled Ryan.
"Can someone tell me what's going on?" asked Puck running with the two teens.
"He's been sexually assaulting me" yelled Scarlet as she ran.
"And you didn't report this because…?" asked Puck.
"I was scared" she confessed.
They made it out into the night rain. They stopped when they got outside and debated on which car to take.
"My car won't start in this rain" exclaimed Scarlet.
"Mines in the shop again" confessed Ryan.
"Take mine" yelled Puck over the rain.
And just like that Puck was knocked out by a baseball bat to the head. Mr. McDonald had snuck up on them and knocked Puck out cold. Scarlet screamed in fear and Mr. McDonald made eye contact with his next target; Ryan. Mr. McDonald swung his bat over and over trying to hit Ryan but he fail. Ryan was too quick for him. Ryan put his fist up and punched Mr. McDonald square in the face. When he was knocked down Ryan grabbed the bat and began beating Mr. McDonald with the bat.
"Scarlet, get out of here" he yelled over the rain while beating Mr. McDonald.
"I'm not leaving you" she yelled back. Scarlet bent down and went to Puck's aid. She put him on her lap and tried to wake him up but there was no response.
"You have to wake up! Please Mr. Puckerman, you have too. Quinn and Beth need you. Please wake up" she cried trying to wake him.
Scarlet sat there letting the rain fall on her, feeling helpless. This night was filled with terror and she feared more was to come. She wondered when all the madness would end.
