What We Had
Chapter 38
(Listen to Shake it out by Florence and the machine)
(My dad has a police officer outside the door. That was either his idea or my mom's. Whatever happened while I was in the hospital. Between them and Jack left a bad impression. I get it. But I can't let go of the times we had together that were happy. Where the between us was real. He was my first love. My first kiss. The first boyfriend I ever had. The first person that actually saw me. I love him. As much as I hate it I always will given our past and the baby we'll share. I put my parents through alot with this surprise pregnancy and everything else.) Sam said. Taking a bite of her cupcake.
(What do you mean everything else.?) Quentin asked. Looking over at her. Drinking the last of his soda from the can.
Sam took a breath. Looking back at him.
(At some point you're going to get tired of listening to my sad miserable life. Well I was in the hospital recovering because Jack had attacked me. I had black eyes, bruises, cuts, vivid nightmares. He had been abusing me. For months. It started off with little things. That was the first time I ended up in the hospital because of it. I just can't stop seeing my parents faces when they got to my hospital room. Then later when Micah came into my room and climbed into the bed with me. Hugging me so tightly I thought he would never let go. I realized I allowed the relationship to go on for far to long and it had to end. For my sake and my child 's. ) Sam said. Looking back at him.
(That was the right decision. He is a threat to you and that innocent baby. You are strong and tough enough to raise that kid without him. There is no reason to stay hanging on to anything involving him. My mom is raising me and my brother on her own. My dad was never in the picture and we are turning out just fine.) Quentin said. Looking to her.
Sam smiled up at him. (That you two are. The Field boys are some of the best in town.)
Hearing knocking at the front door Sam got up and went to answer it.
She unlocked and opened the front door. Opening it slowly and looked up.
Chills went down her spine. (Jack why are you here.?) Sam asked.
(You've been avoiding me Sammie and I miss you. We need to catch up and make plans for our future especially the baby's.) Jack said.
(We won't be doing that Jack. Our relationship is over. It's been wrong and unhealthy for months now and I can't expose my child to that. ) Sam said. Looking up at him.
(You don't mean that. Can't you see Brooke, Lucas, and him.) He said.
As Quentin walked over to where Sam was.
(Are trying to tear us apart.! I love you. You love me. That's all that matters.) Jack said.
(Stop saying that! You don't do what you did to me. If you love someone!)
(We are done! And you will have no access to my child.) Sam said. Putting her hand on her stomach.
(You've caused enough pain and torment. Just leave Jack.) Quentin said.
(What goes on between Sam and I. Is none of your business.)
(She and this baby are mine. You have feelings for her. You always have.! And she will never be with you because she and I belong together.!) Jack yelled. Looking to Quentin.
(You violated her took advantage of her love for you. And somehow think you're going to have this,happy ending get real. She deserves so much better then you.) Quentin said. Looking back at Jack.
(Leave my house now! Before I call the police!) Sam yelled.
(Relax Sammie. Since you refuse to see it my way. I am suing you for custody of our baby. I'm not the only one. With a past right Sam. Let's see which one of us will be more fit to raise this child.) Jack threatened. Looking up at her.
A wave of panic began to go through her.
(Jack wait. Let's talk.) Sam said.
(Preferably alone. Meaning you can go now. Quentin.) Jack said.
Quentin looked over at Sam.
(It's okay. I've got this.) Sam said. Smiling up at him.
Jack waited until Quentin was gone. Before he faced Sam.
His eyes locked on hers.
(Let's discuss our future and our baby's.)Sam said.
...
(I am so happy. Being able to have a life together. Forever is all I've dreamed of for so long. I'm going to be Mrs. Brooke Davis Scott.) Brooke said. Smiling as she gazed over at him.
(Spending my life with you is all I've ever wanted. I cannot wait to get married. And have more kids.) Lucas said. Smiling back at her.
(I love you and I want two more babies. Another son and a daughter.) Brooke said. Leaning over kissing him.
(Two boys and a girl. Sounds perfect to me.) Lucas said. Kissing her back. Taking her in his arms.
(We need to make more time for nights like this. Quality alone time.) Brooke said. Looking up at him. Smiling happily.
(I will gladly plan more getaways like this. For us and for our family too.)
(We have the room to ourselves for the rest of the night.) Lucas said. Linking his fingers with hers.
(You are going to be exhausted tomorrow.) Brooke said. Leaning over kissing him.
(Why is that.?) He asked. Kissing her back.
(Because you aren't getting any sleep for the rest of the night.) Brooke said. Smiling back at him.
Reconnecting their lips. As Lucas pulled the covers over them.
