Chapter 11

"Come on" Levi sighed as she stopped even acknowledging Pierre's presence and practically skipped to the door. Well as much as a pregnant woman can skip. Right as she was about to knock they heard Courtney scream.

Without another thought Pierre bust into the house heading straight for Jason. Before anyone knew what happened Pierre and Jason were rolling on the floor, taking hits where they could get 'em.

"Jason, Pierre STOP!" Courtney screamed as the shock of what was happening finally started to wear off.

"Pierre!" Levi screamed she was shocked that this was happening. It was like a bad chick flick Courtney was hysterically crying and screaming while Pierre and Jason were rolling on the floor and the baby was screaming in the background...wait the baby. She directed her attention away from her husband who was now trying to pry the two men apart and looked around.

"JASON STOP!" Courtney screamed as she finally got hold of his arm and started to pull him away the best she could. Between David pulling Pierre back and away and Courtney tugging on Jason's arm they managed to get the two under control.

Jason slowly backed off the man when he felt Courtney tugging at his arm. He slowly turned to see her tear stained face. He hated to see her cry and the fact that he was the one who put the tears in her eyes didn't help his conscience either.

Their eyes were locked on each other, each fighting a battle within themselves, neither knowing whether to let each other in or pull apart. Both knew that they had a child together and that neither were going to give her up now...but how to compromise. As much as they wanted each other they had already made a fuss and weren't willing to turn around and contradict their whole fight.

Pierre watched as this man stood there locked in a staring match with Courtney. He didn't know who he was or what was going on but he wasn't going to let this jerk hurt Courtney. Deciding that he couldn't stand the silence anymore he ended "Who the hell are you and what the hell were you doing to Courtney?" he asked his voice dripping with loathe.

Jason turned to face the man. He found it strange that the man would challenge him he was a good few inches shorter and not what you'd call muscular. "Watch your language around my daughter." he hissed before turning back towards Courtney again. Before he could successfully turn around Pierre grabbed his arm Jason swung around fist ready.

"JASON" Courtney yelled before quickly placing herself in between the two men. "Jason come on let it go." she soothe as she placed a gentle hand on his arm.

Amazing how one touch from her could calm him down instantly. He threw one last death stare at the man before turning and grabbing the diaper bag and Katie and walking into the bedroom that Courtney had laid Katie in earlier, shutting the door behind him.

Courtney sighed as she around at the three individuals left in the room. Not exactly knowing what to say if anything she decided on just asking them to leave. "Uhhh guys could you just go I have to deal with this." she said her voice so small that they were lucky they heard her.

"Courtney I am not leaving you here with that MANIAC!" Pierre yelled towards the door.

Courtney breathed a sigh of relief when Jason didn't come slamming out of the room and turned toward Levi who had been silent the whole time. "Could you just go please he won't hurt me...he could never hurt me" the last part was more of a realization than a statement.

Levi nodded. Being the only one who truly understood what Courtney had said and who was really here she grabbed Pierre and started to push him to the door. "I'll talk to you later call me if you need anything ok." she said continuing towards the door.

"I'm not leaving her here!" Pierre said attempting to stand his ground which was becoming quite difficult with both David and Levi Pushing him out the door.

"Thank you Pierre but I'll be fine I promise. Bye." she said as she walked over and closed and locked the door behind them. She sighed as she turned and stared into the house. "Behind door number one we have a baby and the love of your life."she sighed as she rubbed her head and contemplated whether or not to go to him or wait for him to come to her. After a few minutes of deliberation she figured that the sooner she got the fight that was bound to happen over the sooner they could come to an agreement over Katie. Taking a deep breath she slowly made her way across the room towards the bedroom. Opening the door her breath caught as her eyes landed on the cutest scene she had ever seen Jason was lying on the bed with a sleeping Katie next to him softly stroking her nearly bald head.

He had heard her enter the room but at the moment all his attention was his daughter's. In the just 3 weeks he had, had her she had become his weakness other than her mother she was the only person who could calm him down with a simple look or touch and she melted his heart with her little smile. He continued getting lost in his thoughts as he felt the bed shift and he knew she had sat behind him and was now peering over him at their daughter.

"She's so beautiful" she whispered as she looked at what they had created. "Created" made it sound like a painting or some form of art. Oh but she was she was the most beautiful little girl, tiny, blonde hair the perfect little nose, and those piercing blue eyes. She was a work of art, their work of art. She was broken out of her reverie when he started to speak.

"We need to talk." he stated simply as he gently picked Katie up and laid her between them. He wanted her to have to look at her daughter and then tell him he didn't want her or him for that matter.

"Yea" she sighed as she sat up.

He sighed as he sat up. He actually hoped they were gonna be able to talk about this rationally, all hope was shattered when she spoke again.

"When are you leaving?" she asked as she looked up from Katie and straight into his eyes. That was her weakness, his eyes, but no one was gonna tell her that Liz was gonna be a mother to HER daughter or that Liz would make a better mother for HER daughter.

"When am I leaving?" he questioned not understanding her completely and praying she wasn't going to be stubborn about talking like adults. WRONG AGAIN!

"That's what I said" she affirmed as she locked her eyes with his she wasn't gonna back down or give in not in the least.

"I'm not going anywhere without Katie AND you!" he said blatantly. This was going to be difficult. She wasn't going to cooperate and from the looks at it she thought it was going to be her way or the highway. Boy was she wrong.

"I am not going anywhere with YOU! And neither is MY daughter for that matter." she said gesturing towards herself..

He sighed. "Will you make up your mind? What have you decided is she mine, ours or yours? I just need you to clarify cause half and hour ago she was mine 10 minutes ago she was ours and now she's yours. You do understand that it took both of us to make her right? You didn't do it on your own! Furthermore she's not a rag doll you don't get to put her in the closet or give her away when you lose interest she needs her father and her mother and I need her to be safe and the only way I can do that is in Port Charles. I won't take her mother away from her that's why I brought her here with me to come and get you."

She glared at him she couldn't believe he had the nerve to even hint that he had come here to take her back to Port Charles. She was fuming now and anything that would hurt him she was fully prepared to use. "Number one if she needed both of us you could have fooled me considering not 20 minutes ago you were fully prepared to leave and take her away from me. And two it's not your job to protect and keep her safe it's mine!" she spat.

"SHE'S MY DAUGHTER..."

"NO SHE'S NOT SHE'S AJ'S!"she screamed as she watched his face fall with confusion and hurt.

He laughed "I should have known you'd play that card if you got desperate." he shook his head looking down at Katie who was thankfully not interrupted by the movement of them getting off the bed or yelling. "Does she look like AJ to you?" he questioned gesturing to the sleeping infant.

"No" she said blatantly.

"Exactly..."

"Jason she doesn't look like you either." she scoffed as a look of pride came over his face.

"She's got blue eyes..."

"Yeah so do I!"she spat shooting down his attempts to prove Katie's paternity.

"Fine! Say Katie's not mine which I don't believe for a second, if she's not mine why did you leave her with me why didn't you take her and leave her with AJ or Mike or Sonny why would you leave her with me." he questioned knowing she was lying because she wanted to hurt him.

"Because" she yelled "Because Mike's in no place to be raising a baby and AJ is just not an acceptable father and Sonny would have never let me leave." she explained putting her hands on her hips.

"So you give her to me?" he asked fully intending on making her admit all her lies and explain why she left and what happened and everything basically.

"I didn't GIVE her to you like you said she's not a rag doll I needed someone to keep her for awhile and I appreciate you doing it for me and now you can go."she smirked, but behind the wise ass facials she was dying she wanted them she wanted their little family but it couldn't happen. She knew it would cost nothing but pain and frustration on everyone in and around their relationship, namely them and Katie.

"I should have never brought her back here! I should have known that you weren't willing to step up to the plate three weeks ago that you wouldn't want to now either. I just hope for Katie's sake I can find someone who can be a great mother to her and give her what you obviously can't." No sooner had the words left his mouth had he regretted them. He was now feeling her wrath when a painful sting surged through his left cheek.

With tears in her eyes she raised her hand for the second time that night and swung with all her might. She then put a shaky finger in his face her voice dangerously low and stated her warning "Don't you ever tell me how bad of a mother I am or that Liz would make a better mother! I have been to hell with that kid and back. No matter what little brunette you pick up at the ho shop for a bed warmer you will never be able to replace me." she spat as she turned in disgust and went over to stare out the window.

He shook his head wondering if that last part was just about Katie. He quickly shook the thought from his head as he watched her whole body shake from the sobs that racked through her body. She was crying partly because he had hurt her, but he also realized that beneath that shaky warning he just received was a hidden truth and he was determined to find it.After glancing at the bed just to check on their daughter he slowly made his way over to her and stood behind her. Glancing over her should he could see that somewhere in between arriving and now the sky had given out.

"It's raining." she observed her feeble voice barley above a whisper.

"I know." he said gently placing his hands on her arms relieved she hadn't pulled away. "Just like the night we first kissed."

"And the night I was raped and the night Katie was born." she whispered her voice a sardonic tone. She felt his body tense up behind her as his hands stopped rubbing against her arms.

I know awful good ending so thank you to:
