Disclaimer: I own Nada! Lo Siento!

A/N: Okay only one more chapter after this one and I don't know when you'll be getting it cause my sister is going to write it for me because I cant! I'm going to bawl but I will be writing my thank yous to the review for everybody personally after the last chapter! Its my heart and its because of this that all the other ones happened and that I've became a better writer so let me know what you think! Thanks again!

Two weeks had passed and she still never told Nikolas and at this point in her life had no attention of doing so either. She grabbed her bag and her keys and began heading out the door as it opened. She stopped in her tracks. "Hey I'm glad your here. Wait where are you going?" Carly asked looking at her. "I have yet another doctors appointment and then Im looking at a house and I'm running late already so what is it Carly?" Courtney asked her knowing that it probably wasn't important at all and that it could wait.

"I think you should call Nikolas and tell him and then have him go with you since you are going to be finding out if you are able to have more kids or not." Carly said. Courtney smiled and shook her head. "One I'm not telling him about what happened Carly and get over it. Two ugh why would it matter to him if I can have more kids or not? We are not together Carly! We are in the middle of a divorce. We went to our first mediation the other day." Courtney said as she couldn't believe she was having the same conversation she has been with Carly for the past two weeks.

"Courtney he still loves you." Carly said pleading her case. "Yeah that's nice. I've got to go now!" Courtney said walking by her. "Courtney you cant run. Just tell him and talk and that maybe all it takes. You guys can go back to being the perfect little family." Carly said as she was starting to give up. She was like Sonny. Hard headed. "Carly we weren't a perfect little family. Despite what you and the rest of Port Charles Nikolas and I had so many problems before Emily walking back in his life. That just put things in perspective. To tell you the truth I'm surprise we even made it as long as we did. I don't know what I was thinking when I accepted his proposal because I didn't know him as well as I thought I did and he still never trusted me." Courtney said looking at her.

"So you are telling me that if you could go back to the night he proposed you wouldn't have accepted it?" Carly asked confused. "Everything happens for a reason." Courtney said. "It just showed me that love isn't everything in a relationship infact its at the bottom of the list on what's important. Too bad that's all we had. We didn't have nothing else. Honesty. Trust. Keeping promises. You know those things Carly." Courtney said looking at her. "Our relationship was one lie after the other since the first day we got together." She finished before walking out the door and slamming it behind her. Carly just watched. She was like everybody else and thought if they couldn't make it who could in this world?

She arrived at the hospital and walked up to the nurses station. "Hey Court!" Liz said looking at her. "Hey. I'm here for my appointment. Is Dr. Lee ready to see me or is she busy?" Courtney asked her. "Nope. She's been waiting on you. Where are the babies at?" Liz asked her. "Oh with Nikolas." Courtney answered. "Oh okay. Listen if there's anything at all I can do or if you ever just need somebody to listen I'm here for you." Liz said. "I know that." Courtney replied before walking away. Liz watched her walk away before picking up the phone and dialing a familiar number.

"Hello?" the voice said on the other line. "Hey listen. I was wondering if you wanted to get together for lunch. My shift is almost over and I need to talk to you." She said into it. "Okay. Um how about Metro Court?" They asked. "Sounds great. See you in an hour?" Liz asked them ."Okay. See you then." they said before hanging up the telephone. She tapped the pen on the desk. She hated meddling in people's life but she had no choice but too this time.

Her doctors appointment was over and she wiped the tears from her face as she made her way to the elevator. She hit the button and waited for the doors to open. When they did she saw somebody familiar standing in front of her. "Court what's wrong?" he asked her. "Oh its nothing." She said. "Here. I'll walk you down." he said as he stopped the doors from closing on her. "You don't have to Jason." She replied while looking at him. "No I want too." He said looking at her as the doors shut. "Why are you crying?" He asked her. She let out a deep breath. "I had an ectopic pregnancy about two weeks ago and today I was told if I was able to have more children or not." She replied while looking at him.

"Oh. Court I'm sorry." he said. "Why?" she asked him with a smile. "Because you are a great mother and I know you probably wanted more." he said as she smiled. "I'm able to have more kids I'm choosing not to though." she replied. He got a confused look on his face. "So then why are you crying?" he asked her. "Because Nikolas never knew about it and he still doesn't. After learning I'm able to have more kids I don't even think I want anymore unless its with him." she said as more tears came. "You still love him huh?" he asked her. "Don't tell anybody. It'll make me look weak." she replied. "Oh okay. Well then how about I take you to lunch since it seems that you had one hell of a day." Jason said looking at her.

She looked down at her watch. "Well I already missed my appointment with the realtor anyway. Why not." she said looking at him. "Okay we'll go to the Metro Court." he said looking at her. "Wait why are you at the hospital anyway?" Courtney asked him. "Oh. It was nothing important. I was just stopping by to see Monica." he replied. "Oh. Well you can still go see her and I can wait if you want?" she said looking at him. "No she's busy and it wasn't that important anyway." he replied. "Oh okay. If you are sure." she answered. "Positive. I'm hungry so lets go eat." he said as they stepped off the elevator.

They arrived at the Metro Court about ten minutes later. They stepped off the elevator and walked over to the table not noticing who was seated in the back corner. "Thank you." She replied as she sat down while looking across the table. "Well you deserve a break especially after everything you have been through this year." Jason said as he looked up and his eyes met with somebody else's. She quickly broke contact with him. "What's wrong?" the person that sat across from her asked. "Nothing." she replied while trying to smile but she couldn't believe what she saw.

"So." Liz said looking at him. "So." Nikolas responded. "be honest. Do you still love Courtney?" She asked him. He smiled and let out a little laughter in there. "I'll always love her." He responded. "Oh my god! Then why are you doing this?" Liz asked him. "Getting a divorce?" Nikolas questioned. "Yes getting a divorce!" She responded. "Because we aren't compatible." Nikolas responded. "Everybody hits a rough spot in their marriage. Yours happen to be bigger then most but Nikolas I know you's can work it out!" Liz said. "We cant. Things haven't changed. She's still hiding things from me and I continue to lie to her." He said looking at her. "What are you talking about?" Liz asked confused. "Nothing. Im going to get some fresh air." He said as he stood up and something caught his eye.

He recognize that long blonde hair anywhere. He quickly turned around and sure enough it was her. He looked to see who she was sitting with and things had just gotten more interesting. He began walking over to her. "Nikolas stop!" Liz said as she quickly began to follow him ."You know the ironic thing is, is that you swear up and down that the two of yous aren't sleeping together but yet every time me or somebody else sees yous yous look really cozy." Nikolas said as Courtney quickly turned around at his voice. "What do you want Nikolas?" She asked him. "Nothing except a divorce." he replied. "Your getting it so goodbye!" Courtney said as she rolled her eyes and turned to Jason and smiled who didn't look at her.

"You two stop acting like fucking five year olds and talk this out!" Liz said raising her voice. This is the first time any of them heard her get loud. "Look I'm sorry but I cant deal with this anymore. You still love her you told me you did and Courtney despite everything you say and how you act you love Nikolas." Elizabeth said more calmer now. "I agree. Me and Liz are going to go have a drink and the two of yous are going to sort this out." Jason said as he stood up. "Wait you cant honestly be serious!" Courtney said back to him.

"Courtney your my friend but I lied. I didn't go to the hospital looking for Monica. I went looking for you because Elizabeth couldn't get in touch with Carly." Jason said looking at her. "You set me up?" she asked him. "Somebody had too." Jason said walking over to the bar. "Now sit and talk! It wont kill the two of yous!" Liz said pointing to Nikolas. He sat down beside her. "I don't want to talk here." She quickly said. "Then go on the terrace but you aren't leaving this floor." Liz said looking at her. "Fine." Courtney said getting up and walking outside on the balcony. "Oh my god! Stop being such a dumbass and follow her!" Liz said looking at Nikolas who rolled his eyes and followed her outside.

"I swear men are dumb." Liz said sitting down beside Jason. "Thanks." he replied. "Sorry that wasn't directed at you." she said. "I know I'm just messing so how'd I do with getting her here?" Jason asked her. "Perfect. That's not the way I planned on throwing them together though." Liz said as she took a sip of her Brandy. "Hey things never work out the way you plan them trust me I know." He said as she laughed.

They stood out there for five minutes neither one of them knew where to start. She didn't want to be here and now wished she passed Jason up on his offer. "Courtney I know." he said quietly. "Know what?" she asked him as she looked at him into his brown eyes. "About the baby." he said as she felt tears burn her eyes now. "How?" She asked him softly. "I went to the hospital that day for a meeting and Monica had thought that you called me because you wanted me there with you during the surgery." he said. "So much for doctor-patient confidential." she said. "She didn't tell me. She just told me where I was able to find you. I watched the entire surgery with Carly." he said as she began to cry.

"Why didn't you tell me that night? Were you ever going to tell me?" he asked her. "I couldn't tell you. I wanted too but something told me not too. We didn't even know I was pregnant and I didn't want you comforting me again because losing our baby made me realize that I have two to go home too every night and I needed to be strong for them." She said as the tears were now a little stream. "You're right. That's probably what would've happened." Nikolas said looking at her. "Courtney I still love you and I always will and-" he began to say as she interrupted. "I cant do this." she said as she pushed him aside and walked back into the restaurant and headed for the elevator as he just stood there and watched.
