Lizzi Borden: Glowing

It was the wait that was killing her. She didn't like waiting, raiding ELQ and Jax was fun and being with Johnny was better but it was hard on Skye. Jason came over to check on her, she could tell he was worried about Liz. Jax called when he could, he remains busy trying hard not to think that what ever Sabean was doing it could get her killed. To make the fifth sleepless night worse she was sick.

Skye sat on the bathroom floor staring at the bathtub. Had it been that long? She wondered if had it been damn near a year? Since Johnny sat down in her booth and changed her life? He'd given her everything she wanted and more he gave her revenge on her family for choosing Brenda over her. He gave her peace...

Skye suddenly started counting her fingers. He gave her a littler more then peace.

She got in the shower and made an appointment with her doctor. She got off the elevator only to be meet by Monica. She tried to turn and run but Monica caught her.

"Skye!"
"What Monica?"
"Do you realize what your doing to your father?"
"What is that?"
"You're hurting him, even if the rest of us think Brenda is a better prospect then you he was always loyal."
"I thought you wanted me out of his life, you got what you wanted. You don't have any body else to blame but yourselves for that. And sell the your drinking and scheming bull to some other idiot, you didn't want him to help me at all. So the better question Monica is what are you doing to your husband. Excuse me."

Monica was left to sputter to herself. Skye rush to the Maternity ward on her way there she bumped into Jax.

"Skye?"
"I'm never going to make my appointment."
"Are you alright?"
"Fine just a check up, trouble sleeping without Johnny."

Skye saw the look on Jax' face.

"Sorry."
"Don't be you have every right. I left you remember."
"All to well, I feel apart."
"I'm sorry Skye. I have a question did you have?"
"No!"

Jax bowed his head and began to walk away. She stopped him.

"Its all different." he stopped.
"How?"
"He loves me."
"I did to."
"But there's no dark cloud over us Jax. There was always Brenda. If there is a Brenda out there for him he's never shown it and if she called I know for a fact he wouldn't go to her. I knew that if she called you would and you did. That's the difference I don't know what hold she's got on you but its still there and Sabean disserves a man who's made a clean break."
"I see what your saying."
"I have to go I'm late."
"Sure by the way you look great you're glowing."

Skye just smiled and nodded and went to her appointment.

"Mrs. Chandler Quatermaine Jax?"
"Yes."
"It's confirmed your four months pregnant."
"Really?"
"Yes your healthy and so far so's the baby its still early to tell."
"Will my past hurt my baby?"
"Like I said it to early to tell."
"Oh god."
"Mrs. Jax relax so far so good. We keep a close eye on the baby and you."
"Thank you."

Skye wanted to be happy but she was scared, she wanted to be angry but she was scared and she didn't have anybody to go to all her friends were gone.

Last person he expected to see was Skye.

"I came to see Carly if that okay?"
"Sure, Your look beautiful, you're glowing."
"Thank you means allot from you."
"Are you alright?"
"I don't have any friends except Johnny and he's gone I need to talk to someone."
"Carly be back in a hour. I'm told I'm good listener."
"I'm pregnant."
"Congratulations."
"Oh boy you really are a peace of work. Do you know who your talking to?"
"Yes but--"
"I not a good person how can I be a good mother?"
"You will--"
"I mean I drink allot if you haven't notice and I do irrational things that could get me into deep deep trouble."
"But you'll--"
"I got mental problems emotional problems how do I know I'm not going to screw this kid up make it an alcoholic or an addict?"
"Skye sit down!"

She sighed and Sonny smiled taking her hands.

"You've changed, you've worked hard to put your life back together. You came out of that meat grinder stronger then when you went in, and having this baby will only make you better. You'll give it everything it needs and fight for it when you have to."
"Boy that's all good on paper."
"Its true look at Carly."
"Look at Carly what? Skye?"
"Hi, I needed a friend your husband filled in. Thank you Sonny. Later Carly."
"Um bye."

Skye left.

"What was that about?"
"She's having Johnny's baby"
"Wow."
"She wasn't sure she'd be a good mother."
"Skye? I think she'd make a great mother. I don't know why but I think she would."
"Me to, lunch?"
"Only if you cook."

Skye went home to find the last person she ever wanted to see on her doorstep.

"What could you possibly want?"
"I want to know where Jax is."
"If I knew I wouldn't tell you."
"Look Skye what's going on between me and him is important."
"Really what ever you said to Sabean pissed him off but good. I'm guessing fort Carly is keeping you far away from Sonny. You don't have anybody to take care of you."
"I have Edward."
"Is that supposed to be a kick in the gut? Here's a better one, I saw Jax with Sabean, I saw him kiss her and hold her, knowing you were still breathing and in calling distance. I saw happiness on his face not mock happiness like with me, not for the moment happiness like with you, but the REAL kind. How's that gut Brenda."

She turned and walked into her house.

Glowing.
