Chapter 14
John was sitting up, when Belle walked into the room with her mother. "John, why did you ask Belle to come and get me?" asked Marlena. "Doc, you know why, and I think that she has the right to know what's going on" said John. "I think that maybe..we should wait to tell her…" started Marlena but was interrupted by Belle. "Will you two stop talking about me like I'm not here…just tell me what's going on." Lowering his head, John nodded. "Belle, the reason why I asked you to get your mother is that……well…after your mother 'died'..Kate and I had gotten closer, and well while your mom was on the island and with Roman…..Belle..your mother and I have decided to be with other people." John said as he looked into the eyes of his daughter who has tears falling from them. "How…how can this be…I mean after everything the two of you had been through…this can't be it…." cried Belle. "Belle there's more…" started Marlena as she placed her arms around Belle and looked at John. "Belle…Kate's pregnant….and I'm the father..we're going to have a baby," finished John . Belle quickly left the room, Marlena started to go after her when John grabbed her hand. "Doc…let her be…she has to let it sink in. You and I both know that this was for the best. It's easier to do it this way, than her finding out another way, which would make it harder", said John as he released Marlena's hand. Nodding her head, Marlena knew that John was right, but couldn't stand to see her baby girl cry.
Philip caught Belle as she was running by him. "Belle…Belle what's wrong?" he asked wiping her tears away from her face. "My mom…and dad…they broke up…Roman and my mom….they love each other and ….my dad and your mom……" cried Belle. Philip pulled Belle into his arms, kissing the top of her head he told her it was going to be okay.
"Ms. Roberts, your discharge papers will be ready in a few minutes. So free to get ready to go." said the Doctor as he entered her room. "Thank you…..Ah Doctor…is John Black still here?" she asked. Nodding his head the doctor told her that he was in room 218.
Within minutes, Kate was able to get out of the hospital. Leaving her room, Kate noticed Marlena and Roman standing outside John's room. "Hey Kate, you heading home?" asked Roman. Shaking her head Kate said 'no.' "Actually I was just going to go and see how John was doing." Looking at the two women, Roman sensed that they wanted to talk to one another and so he excused himself and headed to the cafeteria.
"Marlena..I don't even know where to start…I..I'm sorry things turned out this way and I am…sorry" said Kate, as she looked away. "Kate it's okay, I mean I'm not sorry that this happened. I mean I was upset and all, when I found your message for John saying that you were pregnant, but that made me realize that I was still in love with Roman and that he was the one that I was meant to be with." Smiling Kate nodded in agreement. " Do you believe in fait?" asked Kate. Marlena nodded, "Fait is what brought us here today. John loved you Kate, and you have to believe that. You have to have faith in this..it was surely meant to be."
With saying that, Marlena pulled Kate into a hug, than went to go and join Roman, leaving Kate to go and see John.
When the road get's dark
And you no longer see
Let my love throw a spark
And have alittle faith in me
Entering the room, a smile came across Kate's face when she saw John. Tears came flowing down her face as she walked up to him. "John….I..I love you so much." she said through the tears. John pulled Kate down to him and kissed her passionately. "I love you too Katie girl."
When the tears you cry
Are all you can believe
Just give these loving arms a try, baby
And have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith, faith in me
Pulling away, Kate wiped the tears from her eyes. "John…I'm sorry I didn't tell……tell you about the baby before you left. I should have….I almost lost you." Pushing the stands of hair away from her face, John smiled, "Kate, you'll never loose me. You gotta have faith in that, and that I love you."
And when your secret heart
Cannot speak so easily
Come her baby
From whisper start
To have alittle faith in me
"Kate, when I was on the island, all I could think about was how I was going to get back home to you. I realized that even before I found out about Marlena and Roman, that I loved you. And when I found out that you were carrying my child, I realized that I needed to get back to you. I almost died trying to get home to you, I was backed up against a wall, but I over came it", said John as he pulled Kate down into another kiss.
And when your back is back against the wall
Just turn around and you will see
I will catch you, I will catch your fall
Just have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith in me
Have alittle faith, faith in me
"John….I love you so much", cried Kate. John kissed the top of her head. "I love you too Katie girl, and when I get out of here, we can start our lives together."
Well I've been loving you for
Such a long time
Expecting nothing in return
Just for you to have alittle faith in me
You see time, time is our friend
'Cause for us there is no end
Outside John's room, Roman and Marlena could see the two of them. "Roman, I've been thinking, even after everything that we've been through, I'm in a way glad it happened. I mean if non of this had happened than we probably wouldn't be together and I wouldn't have realized how much I still love you:, said Marlena as she placed a kiss on Roman's face. "I agree Doc….we were meant to together , just as John and Kate were meant to be. And all it took was our 'deaths' and time. But here we are…I love you so much", said Roman as he pulled Marlena into his embrace.
And all you gotta do is
Have alittle faith in me
I will hold you up, I will hold you up
And your love gives me strength
Enough to have alittle faith in me
Oh, have alittle faith , oh darling
Have alittle faith in me
