An: Thanks for all of your reviews.. on with the story
Shane stood there, rooted to the pot, he was shocked, how could the baby not be his. She was the only girl that he'd ever been with, and likewise with her, she would never sleep with somebody else and not tell him. She wouldn't do that. Never. That wasn't her, she was faithful, truthful, well, not so much in the last few months but yea, she had been. She still wouldn't do anything like this though, make love to another man, the thought repulsed him so much he wanted to vomit
"What" he managed to get out, he sounded crushed
"The baby's not yours" she managed to get out
"What, you're the only one ive ever been with" he said, tears catching in his throat
She swallowed hard "But you're not the only guy ive ever been with" she whispered
"What"
"You-"
"Im not talking about that, I heard you" he said, his voice becoming louder "You made love to another man"
"We weren't together" she retalliated, trying to defend
"Does it matter, I waited for you, because I loved you, because I knew someday that we would be together"
"How did you know that, i never planned to see you again" she answered, regretting her words
"You bitch"
"How dare you" she said, now angry
Shane had never been more hurt in his entire life, he had waited for her, he had plenty of girls, but he never made love to them, never went near them because he was so in love with her , and she did this, she hurt him like this, he forgived her for not telling him that he had a son, he was with her when she told him that she was pregnant, but now, this was the last straw, that baby wasn't his, another man had been with her, touched her beautiful lips, caressed her breasts, whispered sweet nothings in her ear. Never would he be able to forgive this.
"What im supposed to be happy that you slept with somebody else" he asked, his unable to se past what she had done
"No" she said, her head falling "I just thought you might understand"
"Mitchie, I cried myself to sleep over you night after night" he explained " I don't think this is a case of getting over it quickly, or at all"
"What"
"I'm saying that I can never forgive you mitch"
"What"
"This is it for us Mitchie"
Tears welled up in her eyes "No, no it was a mistake, it can't be"
"Mitchie, you've broken my heart for the last time, we;re done" he said, almost numb
"You didn't even ask me who the father was"
"Is it important" he asked as he headed out the door
"Kind of"
"Who is it"
"Jason"
His eyes squeezed shut "Why did i need to know that"
"Because he is willing to give it up for you" she said, hoping that he would change his mind
"Is that supposed to be a good thing" he asked, hurt
Mitchie realised the tear sliding down his cheek, he had been so supportive and she had done this to him. How could she have, she loved him so much and yet she never stopped hurting him, she didn't blame him, yet she didn't think it was right, because she couldn't live without him.
"The baby could be yours, we could be a family"
"Never will I ever be part of your family"
And with that he was gone.
It was a restless night from then on, she didn't get much sleep, and she needed her sleep. She couldn't get over how Shane had reacted, she was all alone now, she needed to see her baby, picking up her phone, looking at the sunrise, her mother picked up.
"Mom" Mitchie said, unable to hold back her tears
"Mitchie honey whats wrong"
"Nothing" she lied, wiping away the tears
"Then why did you ring me at four am"
"Because I need to see my baby" she cried
"Can you please leave him here with me, I can't be without him, I need to be near him"
"Look I'll bring him up, but his routine, sweetie he's only one after all"
Mitchie nodded "Ok, I miss him so much" she cried
Connie unerstood, she was a mommy after all and she needed to see her baby. She was without him for a couple of five weeks now, she needed to see her son, it wasn't right for him either to be away from her.
After that she slept easier, she was reassured by knowing that, today she would see her son.
Waking up, she realised that she had a rehearsal for the final jam, and the camp fire sing song, she had to do it with Shane, they had to act like they were getting along, or they wouldn't have jobs here. They were singing 'this is me' from the day she had arrived. She needed to know that he didn't hate her, she needed him to get over it, for the sake of this camp, after she didn't care, but here, here she needed him to be civil.
Locking her jewellery box, she headed out to her rehearsal, she was going to be civil to him, no matter how much she hadf hurt him, she knew that nobody could know, she would sink into oblivion after camp was over. Wait..who was she kidding, Shane would never give up his child without a fight, or at least the media wouldn't.
Shane was there. She was surprised, he normally didn't handle stuff like this well, though the tears were there, she could tell. Shane was easy to see like that.
Shane and Mitchie got into a corner, they had to practice, but neither of them could focus, they were still in love, and always would be, but Mitchie knew that she had destroyed that forever, she betrayed him, making love to another man.
Hours passed and Mitchie was getting restless, she needed to see her son, she had cleared it with Brown, but only for the day, she wasn't allowed to keep him overnight, it sent a bad message to other campers who were moms, young moms.
Waiting was a stressful game,she missed Tadhg, her maternal instinct was in need to be with a child, not any child though, her child. Finally the car pulled up and Connie Torres got out, Tadhg clutched in a carrier, taking out his baby bag also, she handed him over to Mitchie who had open arms, awaiting this arrival.
"I'll leave you two to it" she smiled "I'll be back when Brown specifies"
Mitchie nodded taking the child into her arms and holding him close to her body, she took him out of his carrier so she could hold him.
Sitting on the porch she kissed his head as she played with him, she missed this, she missed being a mom, thats what she needed, she needed a family, even if it was without Shane.
People were asking questions about him and Mitchie, he just had to get away, she was the subject of every conversation and it was killing him, he needed to get away, so he headed for his cabin. He needed some Dispirin for the headache that was beginning to put him off of his food, not that that was a problem today.
"Ssh" She soothed as Tadhg cried in her arms
"moma" he said, his crying suddenly ceasing
He said, eager to get to something
Mitchie turned around, there stood Shane
"I didn't think you were coming back"
"I'm not, but you'll never stop me from seeing my son"
