Moving Forward

Frank has did everything possible to move on from Rachel. Including getting a new girlfriend. Rachel really broke his heart. But he had to respect her wishes. Sadly that meant leaving Fletcher behind too.

He knew his heart would soon heal. And it started to with the help from a woman named Becky. Becky was the nurse at Frank's doctor's office. She would give him special treatment when he came in about his arm.

At first Frank wasn't interested. She just wouldn't take no for a answer. And soon Frank gave in. Just to get her off his back. But he couldn't lie it has been nice having her around. It helped him from missing Rachel and Fletcher.

There was just one issue with Becky. She was two years older then Frank. So her biological clock was ticking. She made it clear to Frank that she wanted to have a baby soon. But Frank was not quite interested in the idea. He rather just spend time together and be happy.

Backyard

Becky: hayy sexy

Frank: hay yourself

Becky: I'm going to my sister's house to watch my niece and nephew want to come with?

Frank: (reading his paper) No thanks

Becky: well you do remember they spending the weekend with us right?

Frank: this weekend?

Becky: Frank, we talked about this!

Frank: okay fine

Becky: it will be fun (she kissed him) bye

Frank: bye

Just as Becky headed back into the house to leave. The phone began to ring. She answered it and came back outside.

Becky: FRANK!! Someone named Bill is on the phone!

Frank dropped his newspaper and jumped up. If Bill was calling it had to be about Rachel. Why else would he call. He ran over and grab the phone.

Becky: you never came that fast for me.

Frank: oh shut up (Becky laughed and walked back into the house)

Frank got himself together and answered the phone.

Frank: Hello

Bill: Farmer

Frank: Hello Bill how is everyone?

Bill: Oh everything is fine Frank. But Rachel would like to come see you.

Frank: What why?

Bill: She will tell you once she get there. Is tonight okay?

Frank: (he glanced in the house as Becky left for the day) sure

Bill: alright Farmer thanks (he hung up the phone)

Frank couldn't stop wondering what this was all about. Maybe somebody else has went crazy over Rachel. Maybe she needs my help with something. What else could be going on? He thought to himself.

He went the next few hours cleaning up. Becky wouldn't be back until late tonight. So that would give him and Rachel plenty time to talk.

Around 6:45pm the door bell rang. Frank looked around one last time before opening the door. He opened it and their she was. The woman that had stolen his heart. Just as beautiful and radiant as the day he last saw her.

Rachel: Frank (she couldn't help but to jump in his arms and hug him) I missed you so much!

Frank: I missed you too come in.

She walked in and sat down on the couch.

Rachel: It's something different about this place.

Frank: (laughed) really

Rachel: you finally put all those pictures up

Frank: Well I have been here long enough.

Rachel: how are you?

Frank: I'm alright (he said taken a seat next to her)

Rachel: how is your arm? (She said while touching it)

Frank: it's okay

Rachel: I am so sorry

Frank: Rachel it's okay really, I was doing my job.

Rachel: Still tho

Frank: how is my boy?

Rachel: (smiling) He asks about you all the time. He wants to know when you're coming back.

Frank: I do miss him

Rachel: I know and he misses you too (They locked eyes for a moment)

Frank: so what brings you here?

Rachel: what brings me here?

Frank: Yes Bill said you needed to talk to me about something.

Rachel: (she opens her purse and pulled out something wrapped up in tissue paper)

Frank: what's that

Rachel: the reason I'm here (she handed it to him)

Frank: (he slowly opened it and couldn't believe his eyes) WHAT!! Is this a...

Rachel: yes and it's positive I'm pregnant

Frank: (jumping up off the couch) WHAT

Rachel: Look I just wanted you to know, other than that I don't need nothing from you. I can take care of my baby by myself. I've been doing it with Fletcher anyway.

Frank: hold on hold on I want to be a part of my baby's life.

Rachel: Really

Frank: Yes we will figure all this out together

She smiled at him ever so sweetly. And before she knew it she was hugging him. Tears of joy fell from her face. She was so happy maybe this was God giving them a second chance. When they finally broke from their Hug. Their lips attached to each other like magnets.

As the kiss begin to get deeper. Suddenly Frank notice the door knob jiggling. He quickly broke away from the kiss. And jumped up frantically.

Rachel: What's wrong (then she noticed someone trying to open the door) Who is it Frank?

Frank: my girlfriend

Rachel: GIRLFRIEND!! (just then the door finally opened and Becky walked in)

Becky: Hayy Baby!!

She said coming in and closing the door behind her. Once she laid her stuff down she noticed Rachel sitting on the couch. And instantly had a fit.

Becky: OH MY GOD DO YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!

Rachel: hi nice to meet you I was just leaving

Rachel said slowly getting up and grabbing her bag. Frank could just look at her and tell she was boiling inside. He tried to touch her arm but she snatched away from him.

Becky: did I interrupt something?

Rachel: Nope I'm just his old CLIENT! (She said walking out the door)

Frank: I'll be right back Becky. (He said following Rachel out the door) Rachel wait

Rachel: WHAT!!

Frank: I don't understand why you are so mad you broke up with me remember.

Rachel: I was protecting you

Frank: From what?

Rachel: From me Frank! You have no idea what I went through in that hospital waiting room. It was my fault you were in there. You tried to warn me. But I wouldn't listen and because of that you almost died.

Frank: I was doing my job!

Rachel: Well I hate your job! And what is she living with you? (Frank said nothing but his face said it all) God Frank it's only been two months. That's what's different about your house it has a woman's touch. You know what I'm out of here.

Frank: RACHEL WAIT

Rachel: I'll call you for the doctor's appointment that's it! (She got in her car and slammed the door and drove off)
