Early the next day, Chel was still at bed rest with a cup of tea. Paris had left early that morning before she even had woken up, but made sure to leave a note for her saying he would be back right before the morning training.
Jack had come by last night to visit her but she was glad that everyone else was busy, she can't stand all the sympathize looks people give her, especially Paris. She know that he was furious with her, at last he should be. If she was him, she would have herself at gunpoint to sign the divorce papers.
There was a knock onto the door before it opened and a pair of dark blue eyes peaked inside. Chel put her tea cup down onto the nightstand and reached out her arms towards Musa. Just the person she wanted to see, the only actually.
Musa hurried over to her and wrapped her arms around her sister-in-law, Riven was close behind her. Musa and Chel cried together, sharing their pain of both losing a child.
''I'm sorry about the bike.'' Chel cried as she and Musa broke apart and looked over at her brother. Riven sighed.
''I don't care about the bike! The only thing that matters is that you're okay.'' Riven said as he sat down next to her and wrapped his arm around her.
''But I'm not, I'll never be okay. I ruined everything.'' Chel sobbed.
''Listen to me. I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but it get easier.'' Musa said and took her hand.
''Your miscarriage was unavoidable, mine wasn't. I practically murdered my baby.'' Chel cried.
Once again, Zandra went to visit Nick in prison. Ever since he got locked up and Zandra got back, they had slowly started to rebuild their relationship.
They had always been close but during Zandra's years into the desert they had started to drift apart. However they never stopped caring for each other.
At the moment, Nick was the only one that Zandra really felt that she could rely on. There was Oliver of course, but ever since Dawn came he hadn't been around as much.
''I've something I need to tell you.'' Nick smirked as he locked over at his younger half-sister.
''What?'' Zandra asked with a smile.
''I'm meeting the judge tomorrow, I might get an early release.'' He added, returning her smile.
''What? That's great!'' Zandra exclaimed.
''When are we talking about? A week? A month?'' She added. Nick shrugged his shoulders slightly.
''Don't know, the sooner the better.'' He said.
''Where are you going when you get out? Are you going to stay in Eldorado?'' She asked and leaned back into her seat and folded her arms across her chest.
''No, I'll just take care of some unfinished business then I'm leaving this place.'' Nick said. Zandra frowned her eyebrows.
''What do you mean unfinished business? I thought you said that you were going to start fresh?'' She spat at him.
''I'm, right after I paid Paris a visit.'' Nick said and looked at her. Zandra's chin dropped.
''Are you still going through with that?!'' She spat back at him.
''I'm not leaving until Paris has paid for what he has done to us, especially you.'' He replied her and raised his voice. Zandra frowned her eyebrows.
''Me? What are you talking about?'' She asked, but didn't earned any reply. Nick only looked down into his lap and shook his head.
''Why? Why do you hate him to so much?'' Zandra stood up hastily, making her chair fall over. She leaned over the table and glared at her brother. Nick stood up as well and walked over to the iron bars that he came from.
''Guards! I want to go back to my cell!'' Nick yelled. Oliver rushed in from waiting outside.
''What's going on?'' He asked confused and walked over to Zandra, who completely ignored him.
''Answer me Nick! What are you keeping from me?'' She spat again and walked over to Nick, but he either looked or answer her. In that moment, a guard came out from a door onto the other side of the bars and let Nick through.
Zandra tried to push herself inside but was only pushed back. The last thing she saw Nick and the guard disappeared though the door leading back to the cells. Oliver walked over to her again.
''What was that all about?'' He asked.
''I don't know. But I'm surely going to find out.'' Zandra hissed angrily.
Riven and Musa sat together into one of the common-rooms with Tulio. Amazonia slowly walked through the doors as she had her nose buried down into a brochure.
''Tulio?'' She said as she kept looking down into the brochure. Tulio looked at her.
''I heard about this woman, she gives classes to prepare you for the birth and parenting. I thought maybe we should give her a call.'' Amazonia asked and sat down next to Tulio and showed him the brochure.
''Why do you some baby class for? The kid comes out then you just make sure it doesn't die.'' Riven chuckled slightly and threw a peanut into the air and caught it into his mouth.
''Easy for you to say, it wasn't you that pushed Melody out of your body and took the 2:00 am feedings every night.'' Musa snapped at him. Even if his commented annoyed her, Musa knew that Riven was a good father to their daughter.
''If you don't go with her then I will. I wished that I had something like then when I was pregnant with Melody.'' Musa said over to Tulio.
''If you feel that it could be good, then we could give her a call.'' Tulio smiled over at his wife and kissed her temple.
Oliver dropped down onto the floor covered in sweat, panting heavily. Dawn dropped down besides him.
''You're really good.'' Oliver chuckled and removed his mouth guard and grabbed the water bottle besides him.
''You have a good right, keep that up and soon you'll be just as good as Zandra.'' He added and poured water all over his face.
''Oh please, I've seen her fight. She's amazing.'' Dawn replied and took out her own mouth guard.
''Yeah she is, and it's a special day for her tomorrow.'' Oliver said and looked at the blond fairy besides him.
''Well then, lets throw her a party.'' Dawn said. Oliver laughed and shook his head.
''She will have both of our heads chopped of. Zandra hates parties.'' Oliver said and smiled slightly by the fit Zandra have.
''But I want to do something for her. She's been doing to so much for me. Please?'' She begged in a soft voice and batted her eyelashes. Oliver groaned and smiled over at her.
''Fine, you win. But if she is out for blood, I'm selling you out.'' He said with a smirk. Dawn giggled with a wide smile.
As the darkness fell all over Eldorado, Jack snuck out of the mansion and headed for the beach house. He got out of the car and walked over towards the entrance and walked up the steps.
He knocked onto the door and waited for someone to answer it. Even if he had quick reflexes, he was caught of guard when the front door opened and he was being dragged inside and pushed up against the wall.
Someone pressed their soft lips against his and buried their hands into his raven dark hair. His own hands landed somewhere and he would know those hipbones anywhere. Jack let a soft moan escape as he kissed her back.
When they broke apart he could see Breanna's face shine up thanks to the moon light sneaking through the door.
''Whoa, does everyone of your guests get this kind of welcome?'' Jack smirked as he brushed back some her auburn hair behind her ear.
''Only my private ones.'' Breanna giggled and leaned up for another kiss before going down the hallway into the living-room/kitchen area.
''I really hope I'm the only one.'' Jack called after her as he closed the front door and followed her.
''Where's Fiona?'' He asked and stopped besides her by the kitchen counter. Breanna uncorked a bottle of wine and poured it into two glasses.
''She had to go for a day or two, some kind of family emergency.'' She said and put the bottle back down onto the counter.
''We have the whole house all to ourselves.'' She said seductively before wrapping her arms around his neck and they started to kiss again.
Topaz walked inside Miguel's study looking for her husband, only to find her oldest son. Riven sat behind the desk onto the laptop.
''Hi honey, what are you doing?'' She smiled.
''I should be working, but since repairing the bike was going to cost almost as much as getting a new one, I decided to upgrade. The new TS-5000 is suppose to be best.'' Riven grinned as a kid into the toy-store. Topaz's cheeks almost turned the same shade of red as her hair.
''You are not replacing that bike!'' Topaz spat angrily and slammed the laptop shut. Riven's chin dropped and he looked like she just had slapped him in the face.
''What?'' He asked.
''That murder-machine almost killed you sister and it did kill your niece or nephew. I'm not going to let it take away anyone again.'' Topaz yelled.
''I was getting it repaired, that's why I didn't drive it! I couldn't know that Chel suddenly felt like taking the bike.'' Riven shouted back.
''Don't speak about your sister that way. She's been through enough and she shouldn't have to be reminded every time she would have to see that thing.'' Topaz said upset as she leaned over the desk.
''I've done this for years, I know how to drive those things. Melody loves it.'' Riven objected. Topaz gasped.
''I really hope that you haven't put my darling grand-daughter on that thing.'' Topaz hissed angrily.
''We're not discussing this anymore. You are not allowed to make that sort of payment without me or you father's approval and I can assure you that neither one of us are going to do so.'' Topaz yelled before leaving in a rush.
Chel sat into the couch in her and Paris's bedroom. Onto the table in front of her laid everything from pacifiers to stuffed animals.
In her hand she held a small brown teddy-bear with black eyes. She planted a soft kiss onto it's face before carefully placing it into a box. More tears ran down her cheeks as she picked up two pair of miniature socks, one pair of pink and one pair of blue. Also those went down into the box.
But the real pain came after she lifted a blanket with frogs and saw a blurry white and black picture. It was the sonogram. She picked it up and that's when the tears started to pour down her cheeks.
She hadn't even heard him, but Paris had walking in and kneeled down besides her, wrapping his arms around her.
It was late at night, or was it early morning? Jack and Breanna had moved their little love-party to the fire-place. They both sat onto a blanket facing each other as Jack traced kisses onto her neck and collarbones.
Even if she tried to, Breanna couldn't seem to relax. She had her hands tightly knot to fists and before she could stop herself, she burst out her dirty secret.
''I'm a virgin!'' She exclaimed and pressed her eyes tightly shut as her cheeks turned a dark shade of pink.
''What?'' Jack asked, trying his hardest not to laugh and hurt her feelings. Which he failed.
''You were an drug-addict.'' He burst out.
''So just because I did drugs meant that I had to prostitute myself to get high?'' She asked irritated and frowned her eyebrows.
''I just assumed that you…'' He began but was interrupted.
''Oh honey I love it when you talk dirty to me.'' Breanna spat sarcastically and looked away. Jack grunted and face palmed himself.
''I'm sorry. I didn't mean for it to come out like that.'' He sighed.
''I just want to forget that part of my life, I'm trying to get my life together.'' She whispered quietly and looked down into the floor.
''I know. And I can't even begin to tell you how proud I'm off you.'' Jack said and placed his palm above hers.
''Breanna, you are so much stronger than I'll ever be. That's why I love you!'' He added before realising what he just said. Breanna looked at him with a surprised expression.
''You love me?'' Breanna asked. Jack was surprised when he had actually admitted it, but he knew that it was time to finally admit it to her. Who knew that the woman who would finally have him wrapped around her finger, was a small town girl with a drug-addiction.
''I do.'' He smiled and nodded. Breanna smiled as her tears started to well up.
''I love you too Jack.'' She said and pulled him in for a long slow kiss. When they broke apart again, Jack cupped one of her cheeks.
''And if you're not ready yet, then we'll wait.'' He smiled, earning one back from her.
''I'm ready.'' She said, with no hesitation what so ever.
''Are you sure?'' He asked. Breanna smirked slightly and pulled her top off above her head revealing her slightly tanned stomach and a white lace bra covering her round breasts. Jack gulped and a smile grew across his lips.
''I'm sure.'' She added before standing up onto her knees and took his hands and placed them onto her hips before moving her own to his cheeks and kissed him passionately.
As if it wasn't bad enough that it had robbed her of her baby, but every single night she had to relive it. Chel gasped for air as she woke up in the room with only the morning light as it only current light source. It must have been around five or six in the morning.
She looked over to her right and saw Paris sleeping peacefully next to her, at least he was free from the nightmares. She needed some fresh air and put her robe on over her pyjamas and silently left the room and walked down the long hallway.
By the end of it she stopped by a door that she knew hide a stair on the other side. She opened the door and slowly started to walk up the spiral stair-case up to the look-out tower.
When she came up to the top, she looked around before slowly walking over to the edge and took a grip of the railing with shaking hands.
She felt the wind blowing into her long red hair when she leaned slightly further out over the railing. How long it was to the ground, she didn't know. But she would have guessed that it would be enough to stop the pain she was feeling.
She took a hold of the column next to her and stepped up onto the first bar of the railing. Now she just had to figure out what the next step would be.
Is Chel really about to jump and commit suicide? Will she? And what consequences would this have for everybody else?
And why did Nick leave? What is that he wants to hide? Why does he hate Paris the way he does?
Aaaaw Jack and Breanna. Love those two, what more can I say?
Next time, Paris has a really bad day …. Or days. Just awful!
