Chapter 16

A few days had passed and Natalie had decided she needed to tell her family, tell them everything, she was very nervous and upset thinking about how they would react to the news that she had been pregnant at such a young age. When she told her family they seem to take that part about Natalie being pregnant so young okay but when she told them what had been done to her what the doctor who was suppose to be taking care of her did, they were outraged. Asa was bent on making Dr Winters and Nurse Nancy pay, pay for keeping a Buchanan from their child, his great grandchild. It took most of the men in the family to hold him down, he was so angry that he personally wanted to hurt good old Dr Winters but that definitely wouldn't help Natalie with trying to get Elizabeth back. Elizabeth Natalie thought, when will I get to see her? I haven't seen her yet, she longed to see her, but it wasn't time yet, the timing still was off.

The Buchanan's hired the best attorney; Asa actually hired the best attorney possible to start the ball rolling, to sue for Natalie's child. The first step in their case was to sue for custody, prove to the court, a judge that Natalie was unaware her child was alive all these years and that she wasn't in right mind when signing the adoption papers. They knew Natalie's word wasn't enough and that Nurse Susan's testimony would be considered hear say. They all knew how hard this was going to really be, how really hard it would be to prove and John knew it, this would be one of the hardest cases John helped to prove and not just because of the little amount of actual evidence they had but because he personally had a stake in it. He was emotionally involved in the case, this girl stolen out it's mother was Natalie's girl, Natalie's child and that fact made this case so important to him, very important since this girl, Elizabeth would be his stepchild one day, one day when he and Natalie got married.

A week had passed and they were due in court in a few days. Dr Winters and his attorney was already served with the legal papers and John had his retired cop pal watching to make sure Winters and Nurse Nancy didn't take Elizabeth and run. Asa was being Asa and didn't trust that John's man was good enough so he hired a slew of surveillance men to watch the house, the clinic, Elizabeth's school, anywhere that Dr Winters or his great granddaughter was he had them watch.

Natalie and John had just finished breakfast when Natalie was off in her own little world. In two days would be the day, the first day of what she was told could drag out for weeks, even months. She sipped her coffee and continued to stare into space thinking about her daughter, her ten-year-old daughter, how was this going to affect her? If and when she came to be with Natalie and then John. Would she be angry with Natalie for taking her away from her dad? Would they be able to form so sort of mother daughter relationship over time? Natalie asked herself all these questions and then shook her head clear of them as she proceed to get up and wash her coffee cup out in the sink. John saw her far away look and he knew what she was thinking about, what seem to always be on her mind, he got up and went over by her near the sink. Natalie was leaning up against the sink washing a few things left in the sink when John wrapped his arms around her from behind.

"How about I take your mind off things?" John asked her as his hands went to her breasts while she was still had the water running. Natalie turned off the water as she spoke.

"We just got dressed, " Natalie told him as a small smile formed on her face

"I know" John said as he started kissing the back of her neck, his hands continued to squeeze her breast over her clothes and Natalie leaned her neck back into his lips.

"I don't think there's time before work" Natalie told him all breathy as she turned in his arms till she was facing him.

"There's always time" John said as one hand returned to her breast and the other hand decided to make a journey down from her breast to her inner thigh. Natalie was wearing a skirt so John pulled it up with his hand as he moved his hand up and down on her inner thigh, higher and higher he brought her skirt up with his hand feeling her body start to slightly shake from the friction of his rough hand on her soft thigh skin. John's other hand removed itself from her breast and started unbuttoning the buttons on her shirt, one by one he unbuttoned each button as his mouth worked it's magic on her neck, finally after the last button John's mouth latched on to the lacy material of her bra leaving her unbuttoned shirt still on her shoulders. While suckling her nipple thru her bra John's hand joined it's partner at her thighs, both hands moved up and down her inner thighs as Natalie let out a small moan of pleasure. She had her eyes closed and she opened them briefly to see his actions on her body.

Natalie was definitely letting go, letting all the anxieties go and was just enjoying how he was making her feel, how wonderful he always made her feel. Natalie slightly pushed him away with her hands as her own hands came upon her breasts, John let out a small pout and Natalie gave him a small laugh, she took her hands squeezed her own breast for a second teasing him and then she unfastened the front clasp of her bra exposing her breast and already hardened nipples. John wasted no time bringing his hands and his mouth back to her breasts, his thumbs started working on one of her nipples as his mouth took her other nipple into his mouth suckling and teasing it with his actions. Natalie's hands went down to feel his erection thru his pants and John quickened his tongues actions on her nipples. He momentarily stopped all his actions and looked at her face, her eye's were closed and when she felt him stop she opened them and looked at him, John gave her a quick rough kiss and then got down on his knees, he lifted her skirt up and his hands removed her panties slowly as he caressed her sensitive area as he brought them down and off of her, Natalie tugged at his shirt as he was on his knees and he removed it, while still kneeling.

John got up off his knees picking her up with him as he did. Natalie's legs wrapped around him as he picked her up and she started driving her tongue in and out of his mouth, John gently placed Natalie onto the kitchen counter. He watched her as he saw her bite her bottom lip in anticipation. John leaned his head down in between her legs as she parted them for him and brought his mouth to her wet core as she laid back slightly on the counter, he brought his hands up to her nipples and started flicking them as he pushed his hot tongue in and out of her wetness, Natalie gripped the sides of the countertop with her fingers and her legs started to tremble with anticipation of his next actions. John used his tongue in a circular pattern around her clit and Natalie started to moan louder and louder. She was finally able to form a few words when she spoke to him.

"Please John, stop teasing me, take them off now," she said barely being able to breath. She reached her hand pulling on his belt loop and John knew she couldn't hold on much longer. He quickly removed his pants and boxers and picked her up off the counter. her legs went around him immediately and he drove inside her as he pushed her back up against the kitchen wall for support, he continued to hold her with on hand on her ass as she was firmly up against the wall, he drove into her a few more times as he felt her walls tighten around him, he kissed her deeply while looking at her face and he saw the sweat start to form on her forehead, he stopped his actions for a moment to try and slow things down when she felt him stop, she stared into his blue eye's, she licked her dry bottom lip and whispered into his ear.

" I love you John" was all that was needed for him to start driving again harder an deeper as he watched her face as her orgasm came upon her, John felt her walls trembling from inside her, her trembling caused his juices to start flowing and he released them as she was at the peak of her orgasm. They took a moment to look at each other as they stopped all movements, John lifted his hand and wiped away a few beads of sweat off her face, they smiled at each other and then he gently put her down. They softly kissed for a few moments and then Natalie took his hand and lead him into the bathroom for yet another shower before work.

John and Natalie had again gotten ready for work and left for the station. As they were driving to work Natalie stared out the window and couldn't help but notice what a nice day out it was, it was beautiful out, the weather was warm and sunny, she continued to look out the window when they drove passed the park, she couldn't help but notice all the kids playing on the swings at the park, all the mothers watching their children, all the babies being pushed in their baby carriages. All the things she never got to do with Elizabeth over these years, all the things she missed out on, she was becoming more and more impatient to see her daughter, to talk to her, to find out about her. They had a court date in a few days but Natalie felt as if she couldn't wait any longer, she knew John and the attorney both advised against it but she had to see her, even if it was just a quick glance at her. She knew John would try and talk her out of it so she decided not to tell him. She made a decision to lie to him, she knew he would be mad at her if and when he found out but this was her child that she longed to see not his, her child that was taken from her belly and was stolen. They arrived at the police station when John turned off the car and looked at Natalie. Natalie just sat there for a minute.

"What's wrong?" John asked as he saw her pale face

"I'm just not feeling well, I think I'll go back home and rest" Natalie told him not really lying about the first part since she had been feeling a little light headed and sick in spurts over the last month but she had chalked those feelings up to stress.

"Alright, I'll drive you back home" John answered her attempting to start the car

"No that's okay I'll go see Roxy at the salon and she'll drive me home, you're already late" she told him; she leaned into him and kissed her. John went into the station and Natalie was walking towards Foxy Roxy's when she stopped and headed towards the train station instead.

About an half hour later John was working at his desk when he remembered that he hadn't told Natalie he'd invited Michael over for dinner and now with her being sick maybe she wanted to cancel it all together. He picked up his phone and called the house line but got the answering machine, he called her cell but he got her voice mail, he was beginning to worry when he called Roxy. Roxy said she hadn't seen her today; John grabbed his coat and ran out the door of the station hoping she hadn't gone where he thought she'd gone.

Natalie arrived at AC, got a rental car and looked up the Dr's address. It was a Saturday so she figured and had hoped Elizabeth would be home today. She parked a few houses down from the Dr's house and stared at it for a few minutes before she approached the door. She rang the bell several times but no one came. She had just turned to walk away when she heard it, the most beautiful voice she had ever heard.

"Can I help you?" Elizabeth said as Natalie turned around to see her baby, her child, her daughter for the first time ever.
