Abby sat in her dark apartment, tears streaming down her face. She
knew what this meant. Carter loved kids and had always wanted a family.
Now he could have one. But without Abby. She let out an audible sob and
buried her head in her knees. Carter was going to go off, get married, and
live happily ever after with. . . whatever her name was and Abby was going
to be left alone and miserable.
She heard a knock at her door but she ignored it. "Abby," Carter said through the closed door. "Please open up. I want to talk to you. Please. I'm gonna stand here and knock until you let me in."
Abby stood up and opened the door. "What?" she asked. "You here for your stuff?" she asked bitterly.
"What are you talking about?"
"Well, I assume you're gonna go with this girl and her baby and have the family you've always wanted. Congratulations, John." Abby walked into the kitchen.
Carter followed. "Abby. . ."
"Don't 'Abby' me, Carter. I'm sure she's wonderful and perfect. . . and everything else that I'm not."
"Abby, stop it!" Carter yelled. "Will you PLEASE let me talk?" Abby sat down at the table, stunned. "I'm not gonna run off with Debbie but I do want to be a part of this baby's life. She said that I could see her and we could work on a custody arrangement. And I want you to be a part of her life too."
"Me?" Abby asked. "Why?"
"Because you're the most important thing in the world to me. And now this baby is coming into my life, she's gonna be important to me too. So it just figures that I want you to be a big part of her life." Carter helped Abby to her feet and put his arms around his waist. "Things are gonna change, Abby. But that doesn't mean it'll be bad. It'll be hard but we can get through it." He pulled her closer. "We can get through anything," he whispered into her hair.
I know this is a really short update but there'll be more soon. I want to know what you guys think Carter's daughter's name should be. I really like the names Dylan, Jane, Sara, and Morgan. Let me know your thoughts.
