Chapter 8
"Remember what I told you right Aidan?", asked Liz as she fixed Aidan's tie and his suit.
"Yes Mommy, tell the mans which of the bad ladies hurted me", said Aidan squirming his suit.
Max and Liz had come to the decision to let Aidan testify against Tess and Pam, but asked that Aidan not be in the room but on a video tape in the other room. He would answer that questions but wouldn't have to in the courtroom with those two psychos.
"Mommy why did the lellow hair lady throw the rock at me, did she not like me?", asked Aidan.
"No, baby she is a sick person and she likes hurting people but you don't have to worry about her anymore, me and daddy are going to protect you okay, now give me a kiss for good luck", said Liz brushing his bangs back from his head.
Aidan smiled big and gave Liz a big sloppy kiss on the cheek.
"Aww my baby I love you so much remember that", said Liz. "I knows mommy, I know you love me, but momma why did the other lellow hair lady say she was my momma yesterday", asked Aidan.
"Because she gave birth to you Aidan remember what daddy said, she gave birth to you, you was in her tummy, but now you are mine", said Liz hugging her little man.
He was not Tess's over her dead body. She remembered her confrontation with Tess that saw it fit to harass her and Aidan at their special place.
Flashback…..
"Aidan slow down baby", yelled Liz running after a very hyper Aidan.
She was going to kill Maria for giving him chocolate.
"But mommy I want to go on the swings, come on", said Aidan dragging Liz towards the swings.
"Alright Alright baby we will go to the swings", said Liz smiling at his excited face.
"Mommy", said a voice behind her.
Liz's blood went cold and her body trembled.
"Tess", said Liz trying to contain her disgust.
"Liz my supposed best-friend that slept with the enemy, like the whore that she is", said Tess sneering.
Liz gasped.
"How dare you say that word in front of Aidan, he is an impressionable boy, god Tess what is wrong with you", asked Liz glaring at the other woman.
Aidan was looking back and forth between his mommy and the yellow haired lady. He didn't like this.
"Mommy, let's go, she scare me", said Aidan looking at Liz with tears in his eyes.
Liz bent down and picked up Aidan rubbing his back to soothe him.
"Stay away from Max, me and my son", yelled Liz walking away from Tess.
"Your son that's funny because the last time I checked I gave birth to the brat, I'm his mother", said Tess glaring.
Liz placed Aidan down and step up to Tess's face.
"You will never be his mother, you abandoned him and tried to kill my little boy, mine do you understand he is my son not yours, I'm not going to repeat this again you nasty bitch stay away from me and my son, I'll see you in court you and your lover that hurt my son, I'll make sure you pay for what you did. You are no mother, you are psycho that would hurt a little boy for their own personal gain, I hope you rot in hell, I'll make sure of that, now if you will excuse me Tess I have to tuck in my son for his afternoon nap", said Liz.
Tess growled and lifted her hand to strike Liz. She felt her hand being pulled back. Tess shifted and stared into the eyes of the man that she believe ruined her career.
"Stay away from my wife and son", yelled Max.
"Ahh Max Evans the rapist", sneered Tess.
"How can you be with a man that raped a woman, are you that pathetic, no wonder your parents abandoned you", said Tess looking at Liz.
Tess didn't even see it coming but she was even shocked when Liz's fist connected with her face hard. She felt it all over. It hurt badly.
"You bitch", yelled Liz but Max was holding her back.
Tess looked up smiling.
"Didn't think you had it in you Liz, I must say you are looking sexy now", said Tess licking her lips before laughing and walking away.
"He is my son Max, mine, he is my son", said Liz sobbing in his arms.
"He is your baby, all yours", whispered Max into her hair.
When he saw Tess next to his son and soon-to-be wife he almost lost it.
"Kyle I need your help", said Max into his cell phone while driving a scared Aidan and a teary eyed Liz sitting in his car.
"What is it Max?", asked Kyle sitting at his job.
"Tess she was harassing Liz, I need a restraining order against Tess, I don't want her near my wife and son", said Max.
Max ended his call and looked back to see Aidan looking scared and Liz still crying in the passenger side of his car. He gritted his teeth, god he hated Tess.
Aidan's POV
Mommy is sad. Why is mommy sad. That lellow hair lady hurt mommy. I hate the lellow hair lady, she scare momma
"Momma?", asked a small voiced Aidan.
Liz stop crying wiping her tears away and answered.
"Yes baby", answered Liz trying to keep the sadness from her voice.
"Yous my mommy, not that lady, only yous momma, don't want other lady only yous my momma, momma", said Aidan from the car seat reaching out to touch her.
Liz had tears in her eyes. How was she so lucky to have found such an incredible little boy that loved her so much.
"Thank you Aidan I needed to hear that, and yes you are my little boy forever", said Liz.
"Mommy that lady, I seen her before", said Aidan sitting back in his car seat.
Liz and Max looked at him. Max parked the car to better hear what his son had to say.
"What do you mean Aidan?", asked Liz looking at her little man.
"She came to da house mommy, she looked it in the window, I seed her but she not seed me", said Aidan explaining.
"When Aidan?", asked Liz.
"When I hit in the head with rock", said Aidan shrugging his shoulders.
"Why didn't you tell us Aidan?", asked Max.
"I not member, me forgotted", said Aidan.
"Okay baby thanks for telling us okay", said Liz rubbing his leg.
Aidan nodded his head.
"Why's that lady call her mommy, she not mommy", said Aidan.
"Aidan remember when I told you about me having a baby in my tummy?", asked Liz getting out of the car and going to Aidan to take him out of the car seat.
"Yeah me member, mommy", said Aidan holding his arms up to be held by his mother.
Liz smiled and picked up her son holding him against her chest and kissing his forehead.
"Max grab the bag in the backseat", said Liz walking into their house.
She had began decorating their home and making it as much Max's as it was hers. She also started making a nursery room.
"Aidan listen to me", said Max after they were sitting down in the kitchen eating their dinner.
"Yes Daddy?", asked Aidan trying to put the pasta onto his fork like his mommy taught him.
"You were in that woman's stomach but she is not your momma, okay she is a bad lady and whenever you see her I want you to tell me and your mommy about it okay" said Max.
Aidan looked at his mommy and daddy and shrugged his shoulders.
"Otay, me under standed", said Aidan.
Aidan got out his chair and looked at Liz and bent his dark head down and kissed her tummy.
"Mommy loved you baby, and daddy, and me Aidan too, am big bruther", said Aidan rubbing Liz's belly.
"When is baby coming", asked Aidan.
He didn't understand why it was taking so long. Liz held her arms for him to climb into her lap.
"Not for a while baby, but you are going to be the best big brother ever, I love you Aidan", said Liz.
"I love you too pal", said Max.
"Love you lots and lots, mommy and daddy", answered Aidan while Liz rocked him to sleep.
End of Flashback
"We call Aidan Phillip Evans to the stand", said the prosecution.
The look on Tess's face was pricless. Pam troy was actually shaking. Maria sat there and smiled.
"Please state your name Aidan", said the lawyer.
"You say my name already", said Aidan rolling his eyes.
Everyone in the courtroom giggled.
"I know but can you say it for me anyway", said the lawyer trying not to laugh.
"Otay, Aidan Phillip Evans", said Aidan smiling.
Liz sat next to him but no one could see her.
"Okay Aidan I need you to tell me everything that happened that day you got hit with the rock", said the lawyer.
"Otay, well mommy put me to sleep, me not like nap, and then I got up and looky out the window and saw tat lady ova there and she throw that rock at me", said Aidan shrugging his shoulders.
"Which lady?", asked the lawyer.
Aidan looked at the screen in front of him and said, "The lady sittin next to the mean lady that yell at my mommy".
Aidan glaring at both of them.
"Thank you Aidan", said the lawyer.
"No farther questions", said the lawyer.
The opposing lawyer that so happened to be Tess's father stood up.
"Aidan did you know that Tess was your mother?", asked the lawyer.
"No not mommy, she mean lady", yelled Aidan.
"Its alright baby, calm down", said Liz trying to soothe him.
"She gave birth to you Aidan that means she is your mother right?", asked Mr. Harding.
"No not mommy, don't matter if I come from tummy, she not love me, she call me brat, and hurt my real mommy. Real mommy are there to play, and real mommies tell bed time stories, really mommies yells at yous if you run in the living room, she not real mommy, she not love me", yelled Aidan getting upset.
Everyone in the courtroom looked at Mr. Harding that made Aidan cry and glared at him. Tess glared at the little boy. Everyone noticed that look.
"Well she is your mother, just because your father told you that Liz Parker", said Mr. Harding.
"Objection", yelled the prosecutor.
"Change your question", said the judge trying not to glare at the man.
"Mommy I not wanna be here no more", said Aidan getting up from his seat and running to Liz that was sitting next to him.
Max got up from his position next to his family and walked towards the back of the courtroom where his soon-to-be wife was with his son.
"I hope you are happy now both you and your father hurt my son", said Max glaring at them before leaving the courtroom.
"We will take a lunch break before we continue farther", said the judge.
"Yous my mommy", said Aidan sniffling.
"I know baby I know", said Liz.
She was so proud of her little man. He answered the questions and they didn't even prepare him that well.
30 minutes later……………………
"Court is in session, please take your seats", said the bailiff
"Alright I call Liz Parker to the stand", said Mr. Harding smirking.
