Chapter 10 Just Like Heaven

Show me how you do that trick
The one that makes me scream" she said
"The one that makes me laugh" she said
And threw her arms around my neck
"Show me how you do it
And I promise you I promise that
I'll run away with you
I'll run away with you"

Spinning on that dizzy edge
I kissed her face and kissed her head
And dreamed of all the different ways I had
To make her glow
"Why are you so far away?" she said
"Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
That I'm in love with you"

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You're just like a dream

Daylight licked me into shape
I must have been asleep for days
And moving lips to breathe her name
I opened up my eyes
And found myself alone alone
Alone above a raging sea
That stole the only girl I loved
And drowned her deep inside of me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Just like heaven

"PREGNANT! You're pregnant!" Thomas roared as she hurried through the apartment and to the bed they shared.

She'd been living with Thomas again for 2 months when she started getting sick in the mornings. She'd wake up kicking the covers off and running to the bathroom to empty her stomach. Then by lunch time she was fine, except for the soreness and the never ending feeling of being tired.

It was torture, pure torture.

"Whose the father, Claire? Me or that sorry excuse for a man? Charlie!" Thomas asked spitting the name of her ex-lover.

She winced and cringed when he said her name and continued yelling at her.

"I'm not going to stick around and raise some kid that isn't mine! Get rid of it or your out of the house."

Claire glared at him and headed to the closet. She wasn't going to take this. She wasn't getting rid of her baby just because Thomas was being an ass.

But as she started packing money issues started running through her head and her living arrangements and the fact that she would get no help raising the baby.

That's how she found herself at the doctors one week later.

"Congratulations, Ms. Littleton. You're pregnant!" the doctor said happily.

She felt the tears well up and in a shaky voice she asked how many weeks along.

"Oh I'd say your about 3 months pregnant. You should start showing soon." she doctor said smiling at her.

She gapped at him and placed a hand on her stomach. 3 months...Charlie. She made another appointment and hastily went back to the apartment to start packing her things.

All she could think about was Charlie this and Charlie that. Should she tell Charlie? Was it even worth it? Did she really wanna contact him after all this time?

The answer was no, she'd just put the baby up for adoption that was the easiest thing, right? At least that's what she thought until her friend took her to visit a psychic.

Claire looked at the little picnic that was set up for them and her smile grew.

"So this is the date?" she asked looking at the food. It was the usual stuff she ate but for some reason it looked better when it set up like this.

"Yep, I know, no four star restaurant, but it's good, I swear." he said smiling at her and leading her to the picnic.

She giggled and sat in front of some food so they could start their picnic.

"So...how are you? Anything coming back yet?" Charlie asked offering her some fruit.

She shook her head and took a bit, "no. I wish there was though. Were you on the plane?"

Charlie nodded, "yeah. So how's the little guy in there?" he asked gesturing to her stomach.

"He's fine, at least I'm assuming it's a he."

"What are you going to name him?"

"I don't know yet. I hadn't really thought of names, I know, bad mum." Claire said smiling.

"I know he's mine." Charlie said after a short beat.

He looked into her big blue eyes and he felt bad. "I do, I've known for awhile." Charlie said quietly. "I'm sorry, you know, when I...I just am sorry. I did love you. Actually I do love you." he said his voice getting softer and softer as he continued talking. "I love you a lot, I just...had a problem. I'm over it now. I'm over the problem. I have been for awhile."

Claire stared at him not knowing what to say, "I know. And I...I loved you, but now...after everything we've went through in these past couple months. I'm not only talking about the island, I mean, our entire relationship. I've known you had a problem for a long time, Charlie. I just didn't want to admit it and when I saw you with that...girl...it hurt. It hurt a lot. And I know you can say sorry a million times over, but it still hurts because when I look at you, I still see her and the look on your face." she said feeling the tears running down her face.

"So I'm sorry, but I don't know if I can do this again. I loved you, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it again." she said getting up suddenly and walking into the jungle.

After a minute of staring at her walking into the woods he realized that she shouldn't go in there alone. She hadn't gone far when he found her leaning against a tree and taking deep breaths.

"Claire?" he asked quietly going over to her.

Her face was scrunched up in pain and she was holding her stomach.

"Claire?" he asked again touching her shoulder.

"Find. Jack." she said wincing in pain.

"No." he said taking her hand. "I'm not leaving you here, not alone."

"Charlie! You have to go." she said sniffing. "I hurt. I hurt all over."

"I know, but—"

"my water broke Charlie! You are not delivering this baby! Go. Get. Jack!" she screamed grabbing the tree.

"Right, hold on." he said starting to run to through the jungle to find someone, anyone, to get Jack. He could still hear her screams as he ran, finally into Kate who was picking fruit.

"Charlie." she said smiling at him and jumping down from a tree.

"Claire!" he wheezed waving his hands around. "She's pregnant." he said taking another breath.

"I know." Kate said giving him a weird look.

"She's in labor." he said. "Get Jack."

Kate dropped the fruit and started running to the caves as Charlie ran the other way back towards Claire.

"What happened? Where's Jack?" Claire moaned upon seeing Charlie.

"He's on his way." Charlie said touching her face. "He's on his way." he said again as Kate rushed towards them followed by Jack who looked a little pale.

"I'm in labor." Claire said quietly and grabbing Charlie's hand. "It's painful." she added.

"How far about are your contractions?" he asked looking at his watch.

"I–ow! Ow! OW!" Claire screamed.

"Ok, ok, Kate got get some water and towels, and something to cut the umbilical cord with." Jack said looking at the blonde's face.

"What?" Kate asked looking back and forth between Jack and Claire.

"Go!" he said making her rush off. "You're gonna be fine, you hear me? Fine." he said looking into her blue eyes.

Something about them made Jack feel a surge of familiarity. She nodded breaking the contact and looked at Charlie.

"I love you." she said just as her face twisted in pain as another contraction came on.

"Ok, here we go." he said as Kate came back carrying what he needed.

"Are you ready?" he asked.

She shook her head as Jack yelled push.

Claire had felt unsure about signing the baby away to adoptive parents last month. And now she felt unsure staring at a one-way plane ticket to LA. She had been feeling very unsure of herself lately since she had seen that damn psychic who told her she needed to raise the baby herself.

She didn't have any money, only enough to barely sustain herself. Her friends had all but disappeared on her and her mother. Oh lord her mother. Her mother was in a coma most likely never coming out. Where had all of Claire's luck gone?

She gazed down at her large belly and rubbed it still unsure of herself. Earlier that day the psychic had called to tell her she was booked for a plane to LA. She felt he was strange for spending the last 5 months telling her to keep the baby then he was sending her half way across the world to give it away.

Weird.

So with a suitcase packed and all her necessities in a little backpack she was heading on a plane tomorrow to LA. She sincerely hoped that she didn't run into Charlie when she was in LA.

What would she tell him?

What would he think of her?

How did she explain her huge belly?

She sighed and got up from the table to change into her pjs and get into bed. She better go to sleep tomorrow she had a long day ahead of her.

She really did hope she didn't see Charlie, how would she handle it?

"Congratulations. You're the mother of a healthy baby boy." Jack said handing the baby over to Claire.

Claire smiled and held the boy closer to her. "Oh my god." she said quietly looking over at Charlie then back at the baby. "He has your eyes." Claire whispered once he'd opened them.

"And your blonde hair." Charlie said kissing her on the forehead.

"Thank you." Claire said looking at Charlie and smiling. "For being here."

"I wouldn't miss this for the world." he said wrapping his arms around both of them.

In that exact moment he felt like everything and everyone around them would be alright, and it didn't matter that there were crazy people living on the island and there were polar bears because sitting there with Claire and his new baby son was enough euphoria to push all the bad things like that away.

The End
