2 Months Later

"Are you and Uncle Steve going to have another baby?" Grace asked looking to her aunt as they sat out on the beach that backed onto their home, Alfie happily sleeping away in his pram under an umbrella while Sam and Grace soaked up the beautiful Hawaiian sun on the two lounge chairs.

Sam looked to Grace and laughed a little. "Grace…Alfie is only eight weeks old…there's no way we are going to have another baby anytime soon…"

"But you will have more won't you? I mean you'd like a little girl?"

Sam looked to her. "Of course I would. But maybe we will wait till Alfie is in school before we think about having another one." She explained with a soft smile to her. "Want some more lemonade?" She asked grabbing her glass.

"Yes please." Beamed Grace.

"Okay. You're on baby watch." She told her with a smile before she made her way back up to the house.

Grace smiled and watched her go before she then moved to go and check on the baby. Seeing him sleeping peacefully in his pram in the shade she let a small smile tug at her lips. He was so beautiful. Smiling to herself she moved and to sit back on her seat but smiled seeing an old face. "Hey Catherine." Beamed Grace moving closer to her. "When did you get back?" She asked as she moved to embrace her. Grace knew nothing about what had happened. Didn't even know she was back. She liked Catherine. She presumed that Catherine would have known about Steve and Sam.

"Hey there Gracie. I've been back a while. Just been getting used to everything again." Smiled Catherine as she moved her arms around her and hugged her back. Spotting the baby in the pram she looked down to Grace and raised an eyebrow. "Not yours I hope Grace. I know you're growing up but you're not old enough yet to be having a baby." She teased with a smile to her.

Grace laughed and shook her head. "No silly. That's Uncle Steve and Aunt Sam's baby." She told her proudly. "My baby cousin. Isn't he cute?"

"He sure is something." Smiled Catherine before she then looked to Grace before glancing around slightly before looking back to her. "You here by yourself?"

"No Aunt Sam's just gone inside to get us some more lemonade." She told her with a smile before she moved and sat back down on the lounger. "Uncle Steve's at work if you're here to see him." She told her looking to her.

"That's okay, I'll go find him later…" Catherine smiled a little and sat down on the lounger. "So what else has been going on around here Grace?"

"Here you go Grace, I put some fresh ice in for you." Came Sam's voice as she put the drinks down on the table between the two loungers. Seeing Catherine sat on her lounger she practically glared at her. "What are you doing here?" She demanded looking to her.

Getting to her feet, Catherine rolled her eyes as she looked to Sam folding her arms across her chest. "None of your business."

"It is my business. You're on my property. This section of the beach? Mine and Steve's property. You're not welcome here Catherine. Steve made that perfectly clear when you showed up here the last time. You can't keep doing this." She told her firmly before she looked to Grace. "Sweetie take the baby inside okay?" She smiled to her before she looked back to Catherine once more.

Grace frowned a little before she nodded and pushed Alfie back up to the house. She was under the impression that Catherine and Sam had never met before!

When Grace was gone Sam looked to Catherine once more. "You are walking on very thin ice."

Catherine looked to her and scoffed. "Am I now? You're the one who's walking on thin ice. This used to be my home. Who the hell do you think you are coming here and taking over my life? Stealing my boyfriend." She looked her up and down before she then spotted her engagement and wedding rings. "I think you'll find that engagement ring is mine." She looked to her. "Steve was going to propose to me. You're just sloppy leftovers."

With that, anger fuelled Sam as she back handed Catherine as hard as she could glaring to her. "The ice just cracked. How dare you come here. I was fully aware of your relationship with Steve. I know he was going to ask you to marry him. This ring…" She held up her left hand pointing at her engagement ring. "Isn't your ring. Steve returned your ring a long time. He was just going to bin it. But he returned it and put the money towards buying stuff for our baby when we found out I was pregnant. Don't come here on your high horse thinking that you are God's gift when you are far from it. You left Steve. He moved on. You lost. I won. It's as simple as that and if you think you can come back here again as if you own the place and win Steve back then you are seriously mistaken. I am Steve's wife. Mother of his son. You are nothing to him anymore. Now leave."

As she was hit Catherine held her cheek before she glared at Sam. Her cheek was red raw and even had a little cut. As she ranted Catherine looked to her and smirked. "You have no idea who you are dealing with."

"I am the last person you want to underestimate Catherine. Make no mistake. I may not be some navy seal or whatever you were…but I will kick your ass and you know what? I'll enjoy every minute of it."

Catherine laughed. "You're nothing but a little girl…not to mention you've just had your little brat…odds are you're still carrying a few more extra pounds than you need. When I get rid of you and that baby Steve will willingly come back to me. No questions asked. We belong together. Your marriage is doomed. Always has been."

Sam looked to her in complete disbelief. "You seriously want me to beat the shit out of you don't you?"

Looking to her Catherine scoffed. "I'd like to see you try…"

Sam shrugged. "Well if you insist." She commented before she went and hit Catherine again across the jaw.

Wiping the blood from her lip, Catherine then glared to Sam. "I'm so glad that you're not pregnant anymore." She hissed before she ran at Sam and tackled her to the floor, hitting and punching Sam as hard as she could.

As Catherine ran at her and Sam fell against the lounger and groaned a little at the pain that shot through her shoulder, she tried to block as many as Catherine's hits and punches as she could. Losing her temper she grabbed one of Catherine's hits with her one hand before punching her in the nose with her free hand before pushing her off her. Scrambling on top of her Sam then hit her back as many times as she could. She could take and she could certainly give. Pinning her to the sand by her throat she glared down to her. "Me and my baby aren't going anywhere. And if you ever threaten him again or even look at him it will be the very last thing that you do. I actually felt sorry for you last time you were here…but now? My sympathy is gone." She snapped at her.

Catherine just laughed at her before she managed to get her arm around and punch Sam in the nose as hard as she could.

As Catherine punched her in the nose, Sam quickly clutched her nose as pain before groaning as she was shoved back. "Ow you bitch!" She shouted before quickly dodging a punch that came her way. Rolling away she quickly got to her feet and looked to Catherine. "You're a complete psychopath!"

"Me?! You're the one who punched me first!" Catherine shouted getting to her own feet. "You're nothing but a thug."

Wiping the blood from her nose Sam looked to her. "A thug? You threatened to get rid of me and my son? You're the thug." She snapped with a shake of her head.

Catherine glared at her before running at Sam once more, grabbing Sam by the hair she ragged her around as she tried to knee her several times in the stomach but Sam managed to dodge each one.

Grabbing Catherine's hair back, the two of them yanked and ragged each other before they both fell into the water. As Catherine back handed her, Sam fell briefly under the water before she quickly returned up and shoved Catherine away from her before she dived on her herself!

"Sam!" Shouted Danny as he and Steve came running down.

Grabbing Sam off Catherine Steve then looked to Sam as she went for Catherine again. "Stop." He told her looking to her while Danny kept Catherine away from her.

"You come near any of my family again and it will be the last thing you do." Sam snapped to Catherine before she shook her head and made her way back up to the house, wiping her nose as she did. She knew with Steve and Danny there that she'd never get another punch in. They wouldn't let her!

Watching Sam go up Steve then looked to Catherine and shook his head. "What the hell do you think you are doing? How many times have I got to tell you? I don't want you near Sam and I don't want you near my son."

Catherine looked to him. "I come here to offer my congratulations and the psycho bitch attacked me."

"Why do I have a feeling that there's a lot more to it than that?" Commented Danny looking to her. "I know my sister and she's not going to just attack people. You provoked her."

"You know what I'm not interested in who started it." Sighed Steve looking to Catherine. "I want you gone. Away from my home and away from my family. You have no right to be here. If I catch you here again I will arrest you. And no. I'm not kidding." He told her firmly before he went up after his wife. Going into the house he looked to Grace and the now empty pram. "Where are they sweetie?" He asked softly to her.

"Upstairs…did I do the right thing in calling you?" She asked unsure of what was happening right now.

Steve sighed and nodded looking to her. "Of course you did. Your dad will be up now. I'm going to check on those two okay?" He smiled to her once more before he then headed upstairs. Seeing his wife in dry clothes, the baby asleep on their bed as Sam looked at her nose in the mirror. Leaning against the doorframe he sighed. "Are you okay?" He asked looking to her.

"I'll be fine." She mumbled as she grabbed a cotton wool ball and gently popped it into the warm bowl of water that she had in front of her before dabbing her cuts on her face.

Going into the room more Steve sighed as he then moved over to her and moved his arms around her waist and kissed her shoulder. He could tell she was seriously pissed off right now so he didn't say anything for the time being.

"Is she gone?" Came Sam's question as she looked to her husband in the mirror.

"She will be. Danny's going to get rid of her. I told her if she came back again she'd be arrested." He explained to her before he sighed. "What happened Sam?"

"She threatened to get rid of me and the baby. Called him a brat…" She mumbled with a sigh. "I'm not letting anyone talk about our son that way Steve. No one." She told him as she then turned in arms and looked up to him. "She can throw as many insults at me as she likes…but I draw a line at him."

"I don't blame you." He whispered to her as he sighed and kissed her head and hugged her tightly. "Just promise me no more fighting." He grumbled with a sigh.

"I promise." She mumbled before she then headed over to Alfie as he started to stir on the bed. Scooping him up she gently soothed him back to sleep and just cradled him close. She didn't want any threats to come to her son. She was one protective mommy!

"Well she's gone." Sighed Danny as he appeared in the doorway with Grace and looked to his sister. "You okay?"

"I'll be fine." She told her brother without taking her eyes off Alfie.

Danny nodded. "Okay well I'm going to take Grace home…give you three sometime together…"

Sam sighed looking to her niece. "I'm sorry…"

"Don't be. Catherine was out of line. I hope she don't come back." Grace smiled to her.

"We'll come back later." Danny smiled to them before he left with Grace.

"Bye guys." Steve gave a slight wave before he then looked to his wife and son. Moving his arm around her he kissed her head and looked down to them before he then pulled her gently onto the bed with him and just held his little family close to him. He was so annoyed and angry with Catherine right now. She tried to lie her way in and make Sam look like the bad person. She had seriously lost the plot. If he could never set eyes on her again he would be happy. She had crossed the line and there was no coming back from it.

So i'm hoping to be finishing this story maybe in the next chapter.
I am having so much fun writing Sam/Steve stories and tbh i don't want them to end.
So i'd like to know what you guys would like me to write next? Their very first meeting on Sam's arrival to the Island? A few years down the line when Alfie is a little older? I wanna know what you guys would like :)

Much Love
