Continuation of Chapter 9
After leaving the hospital,
Courtney made her way to the PCPD, knowing if she didn't go right
then, she would chicken out. Courtney entered the main
room of the
police department and saw Mac and Ric talking at one of the
desks.
She took a deep breath and walked over to them.
"Mac, Ric? I need to talk to you," Courtney said,
getting the attention of
the two men.
"What is it Courtney?" asked Mac. He still felt bad about what happened to this young woman, but he could see that something was bothering her.
"Can we talk
in private?" she asked, indicating the nearest interrogation
room.
The men nodded and preceded her to the room. Mac opened the door and
waited until Courtney had walked in and was sitting at the metal
table.
"Is everything okay?" he asked.
Courtney shook her head, fighting back the tears that threatened to spill over. Keeping her eyes on her hands, she said, "I found out today that I am pregnant. Alcazar is the father," she said, looking up when neither man said anything.
Ric swore quietly under his breath and Mac sighed as he took a seat across from Courtney. "I'm sorry Courtney," he said.
"Thank you," she said. "But I came here to tell you because I am sure that it will come out soon. I need you both to do me a favor."
"Anything," said Ric. He felt responsible for what happened to Courtney and wanted to make things better.
"I want you to make sure that Alcazar gets put away forever, I don't want him anywhere near me or my baby. I will be keeping the baby and raising him or her myself," she said in a shaky voice.
"Courtney, I will do everything I can to make
sure Alcazar will never be
free," said Ric confidently.
Courtney nodded and thanked the two men. Now that that was done, she still had another hurdle ahead of her: telling Sonny and Jason. She was definitely not looking forward to this.
I would like to give credit to Michelle Grogan (ShellBell822) who wrote this part of the story. Thanks you so much for doing that. I was having a huge writers block.
