His Worst Nightmare.

Chapter, 18

Bedford Hills Correctional Facility Interview room.

Bobby Goren sat and waited, however his nervousness was coursing through his body. Alex sat next to him and waited for them to bring Nicole.

When the door opened Nicole was annoyed to see that he had brought Alex, with a sigh she took a seat opposite them and waited whilst the guard handcuffed her hand to the table.

"Bobby, what a pleasure it is seeing you again. You are a naughty boy though I told you to come alone!" After she said it Nicole turned towards Alex and gave her a very insincere smile.

Alex held her stare.

"I find it always so amusing how such a grown man always requires his little babysitter Bobby. Have you always been such a wimp?" Nicole turned her full attention to Bobby.

"Let's drop the pleasantries Nicole; I want to know the results of the pregnancy test!"

Nicole leaned back in her seat a smug expression on her face.

"Tut tut Bobby, so persistent you know the rules tit for tat! Tell me, deep down did you enjoy the sex we had?"

Nicole covered her mouth and giggled.

"Oh I forgot you couldn't remember much could you. Forget that question; tell me have I ruined you for other women Bobby?"

She looked over at Alex.

"Tell me detective how has the sex been?"

Alex however ignored her and placed her hand on Bobby's thigh under the table, feeling how tense he was.

Bobby relaxed when he felt Alex's hand.

"I can see this is a complete waste of time!"

Bobby pushed back his seat and stood up.

"Just send me the results; we have better things to do!"

Alex stood up to follow him out.

"Oh my Bobby, it would be easy for me to say you are your father's son, wouldn't it! Oops I forgot he wasn't your sperm donor was he. Silly me always forgetful. You know I find it very amusing as your real father was a serial rapist, and that I raped you. You always were a mummy's boy weren't you? It just proves though that you are like your mother's husband and running away from your responsibilities!"

Bobby froze mid stride and struggled to control himself.

"Oh my, did I hit a nerve Bobby boy? Well just to let you know, congratulations you are going to be a daddy. Tell me what would you prefer? A girl or a boy? Personally I would love a little girl. I wonder will she have your dark curls."

Nicole smiled as they left the room, then she was returned to her cell.

Alex was having a hard time keeping up with Bobby as he stormed his way back to the Suv. Once they were seated inside she turned to him and laced her fingers through his. He took a deep breath and brought her hand up to his mouth and kissed her fingers.

"I'm sorry I lost it in there."

Bobby closed his eyes as Alex stroked his face and she watched as the tension left his body.

"Bobby even a saint would lose their temper with that sociopath, the only reason she is still breathing is because we aren't allowed to take our service weapons in there with us believe me."

She let her finger trace over his lips and watched as he kissed her fingertips. They now had it in black and white it was official Nicole Wallace was carrying Bobby's baby. One thing was for sure there was no way they could leave this child with its biological mother, they had a battle on their hands.

Alex leant over towards Bobby and softly kissed his lips and smiled against his mouth as he groaned and pulled her in to deepen the kiss. Once they broke the kiss he rested his forehead against hers.

"Thanks Alex I don't know if I could handle all this without you by my side. We have the trial to concentrate on we can't let her win this time, then I will take legal proceedings to obtain custody of the child once it is born. It is all just a lot to process right now."

Alex smiled at him then started the SUVs' engine and drove back to 1PP.

During the drive back Bobby was deep in thought he was 50 years old he had never expected to become a father and yet in a little over 6 months Nicole was going to give birth. He was close to a panic attack with all the scenarios. Firstly a high risk that his child would develop Schizophrenia, ok his mother back then had never taken her medication until she was admitted to Carmel Ridge by which time they never reached the required effect. Today they were very advanced and if his child were to develop it, then he had a very good prospect of it being effectively controlled. Next was one big problem, he was a Detective with the Major Case Squad he didn't work 9 to 5.

In a year he would reach his 20 years of service he would have to find a day care that would be ok with the long unpredictable hours of his job. All the problems were giving him a migraine.

Then there was Alex although they had been partnered together for 12 years their relationship was all new. She had shown nothing but compassion but at the end of the day could she accept a child from Wallace? He was jolted out of his thoughts as Alex squeezed his hand, they had arrived at 1PP. He released his seatbelt and followed Alex up to the 11th floor.
