Chapter 41

Hi guys, First of all I am sorry this is taking so long to finish up and update as you guys know this is my first time writing a story so I get stuck at some points and have a hard time continuing with the plot again I am so sorry for delays. So, for the sake of everyone's tolerance with me I am going to rush into the story a little bit. So bare with me, Thank you.

Flashback to what transpired three weeks before this situation (Sorry guys I'll explain in a summary style so please be patient with me...thank you)

Kara thought against everything about this new mission solely for Cat's satisfaction decided to investigate into Regina's life. A day after she had left the folder at Cat's desk she ignored all communication with her boss/lover. The next day she didn't come into the office instead she packed her stuff and wrote a letter to Cat explaining her what she was about to do and when she will likely to return to National City and Catco. She also mentioned how this was a last favor she will doing for Cat and after this they both will go their separate ways and Kara had hoped and pleased through the letter for Cat to see how wrong this was of her to use Kara as a way to help someone like "Cora". The next day Kara had met up with Winn before work to have the letter delivered to Cat. Kara hoped this separation between could either help them or break them completely. Cat after learning all of this was left devastated and shocked.

When Kara had arrived in New York City after a 41-hour plane ride (she decided to forgo her superpowers for the time being) it was different than she had expected. But her major concern was to establish her access into the Nolan's construction company. She quickly used her connection from Catco to connect to some upper media companies in New York besides mention of Cats name was enough for her to have a chat with some of the companies. In about a week from her stay she ran over all of New York to finally find her access into the Nolan's, finally she was going to meet Regina.

Kara was able to set up a meeting with David and Mary Nolan and interview them about their company and their Sons. She was able to get all the basic information from them but decided to ask permission to learn more about the company via personal tour and inside look into the company employees and structure. David and Mary hesitating at first decided to have Kara sign a disclosure agreement before they let her into their business. During second week of her stay she was able to meet with Emmett and his secretary, Regina. Emmett being a busy individual was only able to spare only few minutes of his time before he decided to have Regina handle Kara and anything she needed.

For next week Regina and Kara spend most of their time together Regina touring Kara around the basic areas of the company and only letting her in on the stuff that was allowed to be indulged in for a reporter. As they both spent more time together they got to know each other better which was Kara's plan all along. Kara also started to notice the tension between Emmett and Regina decided to play in her own part into it. When ever Emmett was around the company out of his house office, Kara would causally flirt around with Regina to get a rise out of Emmett. Kara knew she was walking around uncertain area of their relationship as a boss and an employee just like how it was for her and Cat at the beginning. Regina seemed to be oblivious to any flirtatious remarks Kara would make which made Kara let out a deep sigh every time but whenever she would look toward Emmett though she would always be greeted with that angry glare, Kara couldn't help but flash him her goofy grin every time.

It was the end of Kara's third week now, Regina was supposed to be off on the weekends but she's been working few hours for the sake of Kara at the company's main office. It was a Saturday she was having lunch at the cafe with Kara when suddenly she got a call from someone, she quickly got up to move somewhere else and picked up the phone and started to talk to the other person on the line. Kara continued to finish her lunch but couldn't help but look up and notice the heartbeat of Regina's getting slightly higher, she didn't want to pry into the conversation so she tried to figure out what was causing Regina to get so nervous and worried. After few minutes Regina was off the phone and came back to her seat with Kara on the table. As she sat down her face looked like it lost all of its color, Kara couldn't help but feel worried now. She asked her friend what was wrong but got certain response just that it was nothing serious but Kara knew better it was something important that Regina didn't feel like sharing with her. They soon departed to their own ways after few more hours of going over some fieldwork and paperwork, Regina still with that worried expression on her face and deep in thought. Kara decided not to force her friend into saying anything and decided to let her be for now.

Soon Sunday came around the Regina took a day off which threw off Emmett and Kara. Kara decided to call Belle and ask what was wrong but she still didn't get much information. By now Kara had pretty much learned about how the company worked and had some interviews with the employees of the company. But she was still not able to fully gain Regina's trust. She had learned from her sources about Emmett's younger brother but he's always been out of the picture when it came to their family business, which was odd.

Regina now two months pregnant, was sitting in her room with Belle, who had just told Kara she didn't know what was going with Regina few minutes earlier. She couldn't help but feel guilty a little but that was not the issue right now because right now at this very moment she felt as if her world was breaking apart all over again. The call she had gotten yesterday during her lunch with Kara was from Graham informing her about her mother's agenda of coming to New York to see her. She wasn't shocked that her mother had found out where she had run off to, it was no surprise her mother always had her ways of finding about anything especially when it came to her.

"Regina, what are you going to do?" Belle asked as she sat by her friend on the bed and put an arm around her shoulders. Regina just leaned into her friend and put her head on her shoulder trying to find some comfort.

Regina then closed her eyes and took a deep breath and opened her eyes again.

"To be honest with you Belle, I have no clue. I have no where else to go and now its not just me there's two of us and I am already being so risky I can not endure more risky situations with my baby" Regina as her voice started to break as she felt tears in her eyes.

Belle at hearing the crying tone in her friends voice held on tighter to her friend "Hey hey now….don't cry, you know me and Kat are always here don't forget that ever, okay?"

Regina couldn't help but nod at the affirmation; she was lucky to have a friend like Belle.

They then stayed in the silent for a few minutes, Regina still letting her tears out and trying to hold back her cries.

"I think you should talk to the Nolan's about Robin, it is their grandchild. They need to know about what he did to you" at the mention of them Regina quickly became stiff and moved out of the hug. She wiped away her cheeks and got off the bed and moved to her room window and looked out of it not saying anything in return.

Belle let out a sigh. She has been trying to get her friend confront Nolan's for a week now since the time they had found about Robin actually being one of them. "Regina you know you can't just keep this to yourself. They need to know and their son needs to get punished for what he did to you" Belle got off the bed as well and moved behind her friend and put a hand on her shoulder.

Regina then turned around to face her friend. She stared into her friend eyes and spoke. "You think they will believe me just like them some girl claiming to be their son's baby mama. Belle this is not some joke this is my life and this baby means more to me than anything I won't lose it to anyone and neither will I give it up for anything" she protested out as she protectively held her stomach.

Regina was feeling angry, sad, exhausted and all the negative things and it was starting to take a stroll on her. She grabbed her forehead with her hands and tried to massage her sides, then all of a sudden she was feeling dizzy and she looked over to her friend and noticed the confused expression on her face but before she could ask what was happening, she felt herself falling down to the floor.

But before her body could hit the floor, Belle quickly stepped toward her friend and caught her mid fall and got down to the floor with her friends weight weighing down them both and looked over Regina's unconscious form. She lightly slapped at her friend's cheek to wake her up but after few seconds when she saw no signs of consciousness she pulled out her phone and dialed the number to emergency.
