Chapter 29

Colette stepped off the coach holding onto Mary-Claire who was a little wobbly on her legs after she was sick not over Colette but over Jac, which Colette found hilarious until she felt the sick in the back of her throat, and was sick into the sick bag that Serena handed Mary-Claire.

"Colette" Fletch shouted as he noticed Colette step off the coach, everyone went off to do their own things and Fletch gave Colette a passionate kiss and lifts her up in the air "How's my favourite girl?" Fletch questions as he placed Colette down on the floor.

Fletch walked over to his car with Colette before getting in the car he said "How about an Indian?" Colette nods and jumps in the car with Fletch and once again kisses Fletch on the lips.


Once Colette and Fletch are sat down in the Indian, Colette goes to the toilet, Fletch makes sure he has everything ready for the best moment (hopefully) of his life. He quickly pulled out the ring box from his pocket, he quickly glances at his ring for Colette and smiles to himself. "what you smiling at?" Colette says as she sits down opposite Fletch "Nothing" Fletch replies without hesitating.

After Colette had finished her lunch and was know sitting waiting for their deserts when Fletch knocked his fork off the table and went down onto his knee to find it and shuffled over to Colette and smiled, He quickly pulled the ring out of his pocket and Colette's eyes grew wider "Colette, you make my day, I wake up to see your beautiful face. I cannot believe in under 8 months time you are going to have my baby. I want to spend the rest of our lives together and see our baby grow up together. I love you so much Colette that much it scares me, So Colette will you marry me?"

Colette looked at Fletch in disbelief for a moment before smiling "Oh Fletch you do love to embarrass me" Colette smiled, Fletch's face dropped as Colette added "Yes you fool" Colette pulls Fletch up to his feet and pulls him into a passionate kiss where they whole restaurant start to applauded them. Fletch puts the ring on Colette's finger and Colette whispers "And a perfect fit."


Later on Colette and Fletch get home and Colette notices the envelope on the side of the fireplace with her name on "Fletch when did this come?" Colette says showing Fletch the envelope "erm... this morning why ? what is it?" Colette goes silent for a moment and says "I am going upstairs for a bath"

Colette's mouth dropped open and a tear slipped down her face and thought to herself 'hasn't he approved the divorce papers?' once she had wiped the tears away.

Dear Ms Colette Sheward,

We have read your letter requesting a divorce with Timothy James Williams, we see that you have been married for longer than 4 years and we are sad to hear that you want this divorce.

As your husband is in prison at the time of this letter being sent to use we have consulted the Prison officer who is working with Timothy and has agreed that this would be the best option as he has been charged with GBH, and that you were involved with the bodily harm we suggest that this divorce takes place as soon as.

Yours Sincerely,

Anna Faring

Colette looked at herself though her mirror and began to cry as all the bad memories came back of her being beaten by Tim for a number of year before she finally called the police. Colette couldn't look at herself any longer and fell back onto her bed and buried her head in her pillow and began to cry to herself.


Fletch heard the crying and decided to see if Colette was alright, he pushed the bedroom door open to see Colette crying into her pillow and the cat trying to get her to fuss him, "hey what is up" Fletch sits next to Colette and begins to rub her back, Colette mumbled into her pillow and Fletch replied "I have no idea what you said honey" Colette rolls over and sits up on the bed and looks at Fletch with her hand on her stomach "Its Tim" Colette mutters " who?" Fletch replies, "He is now my ex husband but I think he is coming out of prison soon" Colette says as she throws her arms around Fletch.

Fletch sits there in disbelief and says to Colette "So you have been married before?" Colette nods wiping her tears away "I married him 2 years after I turned you down at the altar, it would be our 6 year anniversary this year and our son would of been 5" Fletch's mouth drops open and whispers "Son?" Colette nods yet again "I was pregnant until he pushed me down the stairs one night, I was about 4 months pregnant" Colette's tears come faster down her face as more secrets become clear.


Soon after Fletch here's why she had lost her second baby and that this would be her third in some ways, Fletch and Colette agreed that there would be nothing else said and they just wanted to focus on this baby that would be making its way into Colette's and Fletch's life in under 6 months time.


They never spoke anything of it until the following week, when Tim made a surprise visit to the hospital with his new girlfriend Miley, as she has mysteriously fallen down the stairs, but it came clear to Tim that Colette was in the hospital when he saw her peer over her computer screen and that was when he approached her.

"Well if it isn't Colette, I thought you went to live in New York?" Tim says loud enough to Colette that Harry shuffles over just to make sure that Colette is alright "What do you want Tim?" Colette muttered as she blushed her hair out of her eyes nervously "I just wanted to see how my darling is doing? you've met Miley my bird haven't you?" Tim says as he leans over the desk getting closers to Colette "How about a kiss on the cheek for old times' sake?" Colette leans forward as if she was about to kiss Tim but slaps him around the face and says "Not after what you put me though, Think about it Tim how many times had you beaten me? or forced yourself up on me ? hmmm think about it Tim"

Colette turns away as if she is about to walk away when Tim grabs her left wrist, "Oh I see someone else has fallen for the Colette charm?" Tim mutters quiet aggressively as he notices the ring on Colette's finger.

"Mr Williams I am going to have to ask you to leave this ward" Harry steps in as he sees the fear building up in her eyes, Once Harry had seen off Tim he turns to Colette and says "See Colette I am not just the farther of you daughters baby am I?" Colette smiles and walks off leaving Harry wondering what he should do whether he should go pay Zosia a visit and see Eva or leave everything as it was.


Soon after Colette had been face to face with her ex-husband she decides to go and see Zosia just to see how Eva was getting on as it was nearly Eva's first birthday within the next 3 months.

Colette knocks on Zosia's front door only to be met by Arthur only in his boxers, "Erm... Hello Nurse Sheward... Zosia is just in the bath" Colette smiles at Arthur who blushes as he realises Colette does know what they have been up to "Can I come in? and it's Colette, Arthur we not at work" Colette says as she steps inside Zosia's house. Still as clean as ever as Zosia was going through a mad cleaning spree as she didn't want Eva to catch anything especially with a heart condition.

Colette sits down in Zosia's living room and watches Eva play on the floor and attempt to crawl around, "Hi Mum" Zosia says merrily as she comes into the room "Arthur tells me you wanted to speak to me alone?" she adds as Colette begins to nod.

"Look Zosh, If you ever need me you do know I am here... right?" Colette says as Zosia picks up Eva and places her in her lap. "Zosh you never knew this but I was married before I knew who you was and know I am engaged to Fletch" Zosia looks a little confused at Colette for a moment "What you and Fletch are getting married" Zosia springs to her feet and obviously picks Eva up as she does "Well that's great news, I hope this time Fletch is going to be your soul mate" Zosia says as she places Eva on her lap "Know Mum you haven't got anymore surprises like the man I am sleeping with is my brother" Zosia says sarcastically "What..." Colette replies "You are sleeping with Arthur?"

Zosia starts to blush as they both begin to question each other "Yes Mum I am sleeping with Arthur, yes Mum we are having sex" Zosia says as she loses her temper a little with what Colette had said to her "No I know what you mean Zosh, I just don't want to see you get hurt like with Harry and leave you helpless and pregnant"

Zosia Starts to lose her temper with Colette until she comes out with what was wrong with her. "Zosia I'm pregnant" Zosia is taken aback by what Colette has just came out with she couldn't believe that she was going to have a baby brother or sister that is going to be 28 years younger than Zosia and that Eva is going out be older than her auntie or uncle.

"How long have you been pregnant for Mum?" Zosia replies after awhile of thinking "4 months Zosh, Please don't be angry" Colette replies as Zosia gives Colette a reassuring smile and takes Eva up to bed as it was getting later into the evening.
