CHAPTER FOURTEEN

David stood staring out at the water... some how he always ended up at this boathouse... God, how he missed his brother... Leo would have told him to pull himself together...

"I was hoping you would be here..."

"Greenlee? What are you doing here?" David wasn't too surprised to see her... it was the proper end to a nightmare of an evening.

"I know that you and I haven't seen eye to eye since I married Ryan... but David I still love you... as if you were my own brother... and I am worried about you."

"Me? Come on... I am fine..." David tried to shrug it off but he knew what he was only fooling himself.

"If you are ok... why are you over here... brooding... about Kendall of all people!"

"Kendall... what are you talking about?" David as surprised, "Did Ryan say something to you?"

"Ryan? No... I... heard Erica and Kendall talking... David, the last thing you need in your life... the last person you need is Kendall... I mean, how can you even think about her like that when she is still chasing after Ryan?"

"Chasing after Ryan? I wouldn't call it chasing... not when he always seems to be around..."

"I know... I mean, I knew that Ryan still loved Kendall when we were married... but I still have hope he will come to his senses... I mean, he chose me after all... But, I can't afford to forget their history... they share so much... and you would be smart to stay out of it... I would if I knew how much it would hurt to see my husband mooning over that... that lying, scheming shrew... Please... just walk away... before she hurts you... and believe me... she will... look at what she did to Aidan and Boyd... and Ryan over and over again..."

"You know... you are right... I just need to think... I'll see you later..." David hugged Greenlee and walked back to his car.

Tears fell as Greenlee sat down, "Oh Leo... I was so sure that the love would come... what do I do now?"

Dream

You thought you were going to win... hahahahahah

"Paul! Get out of here.... Leave me alone!" Babe tried to grab Bess and a run.... But her legs wouldn't work....

Looking down she realized that it wasn't Bess she was holding.... It was a different baby and Babe felt an overwhelming rush of love....

And then the baby was in Paul's arms and he was laughing as he walked away and Babe was left....

"Give me my baby! Please don't take him...." She could hear the baby crying.... And then it turned into a little boy's voice calling for his mother...

Dream

Babe sat up gasping for her breath... what was happening to her? Why was she having these crazy dreams?

"Baby doll? Rise and shine! We have got to get to ready for you're wedding... and that little angel of yours is gonna want her momma soon!"

"Oh momma! I just had the worst nightmare... will they ever stop..." Babe pulled her mother into her arms and cried softly.

"Oh sweetie... quit bein silly... all your dreams are going to come true today... so don't worry about a thing... your momma isn't going to let anything happen to you..."

Babe felt she was so close to something... something was pulling her and she couldn't figure out what it was...

"Now... you get out of bed... and I am going to fix you a nice hot bubble bath..."

As Krystal walked into the adjoining bathroom Babe covered her face with her hands... today was her wedding day to JR and her baby was safe in the nursery... all her dreams were coming true... and that scared the hell out of her.

"Bianca! Where is the sundress you and mom bought? Why didn't you put it in my closet?" Kendall was wrapped in a towel struggling to find her dress in the closet. "Looking for this?" Bianca stood in her sister's doorway holding a dress bag.

"Wow! You look great! I like the pink... it's nice... a little frilly for you... but..." Kendall laughed and reached for the dress.

"Yeah... but you know Babe... So..." Kendall was staring down at the dress she was pulling out of the bag.

"Oh no! You two didn't! What happened to my elegant and simple sundress?" Kendall turned an accusing glance at her sister.

"Well... mom and I made an executive decision... so get dressed... and no switching... or else you will suffer the consequences..." Bianca turned and left laughing.

"Great! Give them a little power and they turn into dictators!" Kendall grumbled.

"I heard that!" Bianca yelled as she walked out the front door.

"Well... it is a fabulous dress..." Kendall sighed.

"Erica come on! We're going to be late!" Jackson stood in her living room waiting for her to finish primping.

"Ok... I am ready..." Erica came out feeling shy and uncertain. Bianca had convinced her that if Kendall was going to have to live a little so was Erica...

"Wow! You look... you look incredible!" Jackson was stunned by the vision before him.

"You think so?" Erica did a little twirl in her black-n-white dress that accented all the right curves.

"If you looked any better I would carry you out of here and have my wicked way with you!" Jackson wiggled his eyebrows in effect.

"Oh would you now? You're looking pretty sharp yourself... I just might have to make an honest man of you..." Erica held her breath and waited to see his response.

"What? Are you joking? Do you mean it?" Jackson rushed forward and took her hands.

"I have been doing some thinking... and I am watching my daughters take risks... jump out there and grab the things they want... and I want to jump Jackson... I want to jump with you... if you will still have me?"

"Have you? Are you kidding me? Nothing would make me happier!" Jackson pulled her into his arms and kissed her with all the passion he had. "Let's do it... no today... but soon ok! Something small... with the family all together... Am I dreaming... can this really happen?"

"Oh darling... I am beginning to believe that anything can happen!"

The Chandler wedding/christening was the affair of the year. The "who's who" of Llanview filled the room, and not a dry eye was left in the room as the young couple made their pledge to each other... Of course, there were a few eyes with tears of joy for all the wrong reasons.

Adam was laughing inside... counting the days until Babe and Krystal were out of his life. And JR was fighting a losing battle with himself... in his heart he knew he loved Babe with everything he had... but he couldn't afford to take a chance... he couldn't believe in her...

At the reception the atmosphere was festive... Jackson and Erica looked like two newlyweds, which pleased Bianca and Kendall to no end. Kendall kept thinking... if they could find happiness together then so can I...

"Hey here's some champagne! Wow... this stuff is good! Ugh... would you look at Krystal... she's over their drooling all over David... poor Tad... I mean, I should be happy... but I just can't help feeling bad for the guy..."

"I was trying not to notice... I mean, if David wants Krystal... it's his problem..."

"Is it just me or are you sounding a wee bit jealous there... is something going on between you and David?" Simone took a sip of her drink and glanced curiously at her friend.

"No... but you got me! I am having an affair with Krystal!" She lifted her glass and saluted Simone.

"HA HA! Very funny! I am serious... Are you and David hooking up or what?"

"Anything is possible right?" Kendall turned and groaned as she noticed Ryan and Greenlee walking around together.

"Well, there's a happy couple... he can't take his eyes off you and she can't take her eyes off him... it's kind of sad really..." Simone laughed and walked off to talk to Tad.

She saw Ryan excuse himself from Greenlee and walk toward the bar, and then Greenlee set her sights on her target.

"Kendall could you please stop staring at my husband? I mean really this too much... leading two men on and panting after a married man... it's so... you..."

"You don't know me Greenlee... you never really did... so what ever you think is going on between me and Ryan is all in your little head... but, then again... maybe you are right... maybe you should ask your husband what is going on between me and him..."

"If you do not stop playing with David's head... and leave Ryan the hell alone... I am going to do more damage to you than you ever thought imaginable..."

"Oh really? Is that a threat? Come on Greenlee... what are you going to do? Steal the man I love... oh wait I already forgot you did that... do you think you can do anything else to me... give a shot... you may not like what happens..." Kendall smirked and turned to walk away. "You little BITCH!" Greenlee grabbed Kendall's arm and spun her around, throwing a slap that landed directly on Kendall's right cheek.

"Greenlee... what in the hell are you doing?" Ryan walked up and pushed Greenlee away from Kendall. Turning concerned eyes he searched Kendall's face for signs of pain.

Kendall was so mad! She would have loved to wipe the floor with Greenlee, but all of the sudden a wave of dizziness overtook her.

"Whoa... are you ok?" Ryan swooped Kendall up in his arms and glaring a Greenlee pushed past her and carried Kendall out of the room.

David had been about to interrupt the confrontation between Greenlee and Kendall, but Ryan had gotten there before he could make.

His concern was overrun by the jealousy he was feeling.

"My... my talk about a short honeymoon... you want to go and check on Kendall?" Krystal tried to look innocent and took a sip of her bubbly.

"Kendall is none of my concern... and as my date... I am honor bound to make sure you enjoy yourself... how about a dance?" David smiled down at the blonde.

"I thought you would never ask..." Krystal was about to take his arm, when Tad walked up.

"Hayward... If you don't mind I would love to cut in..." Tad had a nice buzz going and he wasn't about to let Krystal get away yet...

Simone just looked between three standing there and turned and walked away... so much for having fun. She headed in the direction that Ryan had carried Kendall off in.

"Tad... I was about to dance with David here... maybe later..."

"Yeah... Tad, why don't you go and conduct your top secret DNA tests... I am sure you can find someone else to torture..." David was about to walk away with Krystal when she turned and glared at him.

"What in the hell is that supposed to mean?" Krystal got mad and turned to stare at Tad.

"Oh come on... Bianca is like family to me... who do you think was there to wipe her tears as was reminded again that her baby was never going to come back..."

"Her baby died! I am sorry, but she just needs to move on and leave my little girl and grandbaby alone! All that DNA test proved was that she was out of her mind... and that she not be trusted..."

"Hold on second here... that DNA test was done... because you yourself said that Paul Kramer could not be trusted." With a frown Tad's investigator mode went on full alert.

"Look at you two... like two dogs fightin with a bone... if you want to start pointing fingers and getting all manly just because I would rather be with David than you..."

"Krystal... As far as I am concerned... Hayward... enjoy her... but I warn you now... if you don't trust me... then you are going to have a hell of time with her..."

Tad stalked off and went the bar.

"I am sorry David... how about that dance..." Krystal turned and batted her eyelashes.

"You know... I am not feeling up to it at the moment... I think I am just going to call it a day and go home... but you have fun..." David shook his head and walked off.

Krystal was left with her anger... just who knew about that DNA test and how in the hell did she keep them from finding out the truth.
