A/N: Once again thanks for your reviews at least I know I'm doing a good job still. I know this is moving quite fast, but I wanted to go ahead and get the whole pregnancey over with because there's not a lot I can write with a pregnant woman that wouldn't require harm coming to her or the baby or nearly coming to them. So anyhow it's getting close to that time for her to have the baby let's see how it unfolds. I hope you all have had a wonderful Christmas and have a great New Year.
Disclaimer: Nope I still don't own anything or one from General Hospital. I only own my own character and plot.
Chapter Eleven
In the months that followed Zander avoided Brina as much as he could. The truth was out now she was in deed pregnant with Jason's baby. She was showing quite a bit now and she glowed. He thought he had never seen anyone more beautiful than she was at this very moment, but he also knew she would never trust him again not after what had went down between them before. She was at Kelly's today not with Jason or Courtney, but with Ned Ashton. Zander watched them from a table outside of Kelly's yeah it was freezing, but it was the best thing for everyone involved. He thought as a waitress brought him a cup of coffee.
"Would you like a table inside sire it's freezing out here." the waitress asked politely
"No, thanks." he said not even looking up at the waitress. His eyes were on Brina and he realized he truly cared for her, but he couldn't help to think that she was going to hurt him like Emily did. It always happened when he got close to someone.
"Alexander why are you in the cold?" Cameron asked as he walked up to his son.
"Dad what are you doing here?" Zander asked finally taking his eyes from Brina.
"I'm going inside where it's warm to have something to eat and a cup of coffee. You wanna join me?" he asked wanting to be closer to his son.
"Nah, I'm fine right here." Zander said stubbornly
"Fine then I'll stay out here with you." he answered sitting across from Zander
Zander just looked at his estranged father and shook his head he always wonder where he got his stubborness from now he knew.
Brina had noticed Zander watching her now for nearly half an hour. She had to admit if he came up to her and said he was sorry for everything she'd take him back in a heart beat. She also noticed a man sit down with him. She wonder who that was and if he was dangerous. If she took Zander back into her heart it would be a mistake that would cost Jason and Courtney their baby girl. She found out today she was having a girl. She told Courtney who was so happy Jason just smiled and rolled his eyes mumbling something about more females to take care of, but he was very happy at the possibility of being a father for real to one of his own. Now here she sat nearing her eighth month of pregnancy explaining to a very good looking Ned Ashton why she has to leave ELQ in the next month.
"Sabrina you're a great accountant. You single handily pulled ELQ out o Jax's hands right when it would've been his for the taken." Ned argued.
"Yes, but if he had wanted it he would've taken it before I even got the money to cover up AJ's embezzlement. I'm only sorry I couldn't cover all of it. I still can't believe your grandfather was that stupid to put him in charge." she said then gave Ned an apologetic smile.
"Yeah stupid is the nice way to put it, but thank you for saving my company." he said
"Hey you did all the work all I did was call in a favor from an old friend." she said softly
"Tell Ryan I said thanks." Ned said
"Oh he expects to hear more of ELQ and he promises to be a silent partner unless Mr. E. highers A.J back." she said referring to her oldest friend from when she was a kid who now lives in Pine Valley Ryan Lavery.
"He's welcomed at any of the meetings we hold." he said " So, are you coming back after the baby's born?" Ned asked as he reached across the table to hold her hand. Something Zander didn't miss.
"Son, if you care so much about who that young woman holds company with why don't you just go find out why." Cameron said noticeing his son watching a young woman inside of Kelly's intently.
"You, know dad you havn't been a father to me in some time so don't give advice on how to handle women." Zander said
"Maybe I should because it looks like you could use it." he stated.
Zander said nothing as he looked passed his dad to Brina.
"I think I might. You know the first time and only time I have ever spoken to Jax was when I was upset and thinking I was going to lose this baby. He saved our lives so if you see him again tell him I said thanks a lot." she said
"I tell you what why don't you tell him yourself. He's meeting me here for lunch so why don't you stick around." Ned suggested.
"Because it would be rude to impose on your lunch with a friend simply to say thank you." she said " I'll send him a card or something." she laughed as her eyes caught and held Zander's for a moment before he looked away. She missed him so very much.
"It won't be rude besides he's probably walking through the door now. It would be rude if you walked out on us now." he flashed her a smile and she smiled as she Jax come up to them.
"Wow your ears must be burning." she said as she gave him smile of her own.
"Uh oh you two were talking about me. I can only imagine what it was about." he said as he pulled up another chair to sit with them.
"Oh it was all good. I was telling Ned about how you saved my life and the life of this baby I'm carrying." she said " And I will always be indebted to you for that." she added softly
"All I knew was that you were hurt and needed help. I was on my way to a meeting when I saw you in Kelly's parking lot." he said as he took in her look. Pregnancy did good for her he thought. She was a naturally beautiful person, but mother hood improved that a lot.
"Well, the scariest part was that I'm a surrogate mother for my best friend who can't have a child. I was so scared that I might have costed her this baby girl." she said with a touch of sadness to her voice.
"Do you have any children of your own?" Jax asked curiously
"No, and that was a big thing for the doctor to, but I assured her that I was okay with having this baby even though it's not mine to keep. It's hard you know because my body is going through all these changes and it scares me to think of the little life that's inside me now depending on me to protect it." she said with loving smile.
"It's a great thing you're doing for your friend I'm sure she appreciates it very much." Ned said as he looked at Sabrina. She reminded him of how Lois looked when she was pregnant with BrookLynn. He had missed so much of his little girl's life.
"Well, you guys I'm sorry to cut this short, but I have to go and pick up somethings for the baby so I'm gonna go. Jax thanks again for everything and Ned I'll get back to you on if I'm staying or not after I have the baby." she said then left.
Zander looked up at her as she walked out of Kelly's. She looked at him as she put her jacket on.
"Zander it's cold you should be inside." she said softly
"Yeah that's what I told him." Cameron siad as he looked up at the young woman who was indeed very pregnant." I'm Cameron Lewis Zander's father." he said extending his hand to Brina.
"I'm Sabrina." she said as Zander walked to her side
"Here let me help you with that." he offered.
"It's okay Zander I got it." she said as she stepped out of his reach.
"So, you and Zander know each other well enough to have a child?" Cameron asked softly wondering if he was going to be a grandfather.
"Oh this baby isn't mine or Zander's it belongs to my bestfriend and her husband." she said
"Aw, a surrgate mother. It is a truly selfless person who bares a child for someone who can not have one. It's remarkble. Do you have children of your own?" he asked
"No, but then again I don't have a man in my life that loves me enough to have a child with me." she said her voice taking on a touch of saddness as she smiled at Zander and walked off.
"She loves you despite what happened you should go after her." Cameron said to Zander as he watched Brina walk off.
"It's better this way." Zander mummbled as he walked off leaving his father to sit in the cold alone.
