Thanks for the reviews, here is chapter three
Jonathan watched for a few minutes as Lizzie held Sarah, though he was starting to get very anxious toward what Lizzie was going to tell him.
"So Lizzie, why did you come here exactly, you know it's not sa—"
Lizzie was not going to let Jonathan attempt to say "It's not safe."
"It is safe now; granddad can't hurt me, you, or Sarah ever again."
A curious smile permeated on Jonathan's face, and he began to laugh.
"Like I'm going to believe it, unless you tell me that Alan is dead…"
A wicked smile spread across Lizzie's face
"Oh my god Lizzie is he dead?"
Jonathan intensely stared at Lizzie. It was now Lizzie's turn to laugh
"No he's not dead but thanks to Dinah and Bill granddad has nothing. No mansion, nothing that comes with the mansion, no car, no money…"
Lizzie could keep on going into a very long list of things that Alan did not have anymore. Jonathan looked over to Reva for some reassurance. Reva smiled too, as she shook her head.
"Yes it's all true Jonathan…" Reva responded and continued on "…he is currently leaving at the boarding house of company for free, because, well Buzz is not completely heartless."
"Jonathan I don't know what it is going to take to get you to believe me, but come on, do you think I would have been able to come here if granddad was still high and mighty. Before he lost everything, he knew practically every detail of your new life, and there was never a time when I was not being followed."
Lizzie felt a lot of pride is saying all these things. She was a bit upset when she learned what Bill and Dinah did, especially some anger when she learned of Dinah buying the mansion, but that anger soon subsided. For as much as she said she needed her family, she was just beginning to realize that being a Spaulding meant Alan's poison.
"Jonathan please say something?"
"You mentioned Dinah and Bill."
Jonathan was not a big Bill fan, but always liked Dinah
"Dinah took everything from granddad, she pretended to be "Philip", and picked up Alan's many secrets of "success", and then took the secrets and made her own success."
"Ok, but what does Bill have to do with all it?"
"You're not that dumb Jonathan, Bill and Dinah are siblings, and well Bill was able to get me out of Alan's prison."
"I don't think Bill has really realized what true love is till he met you Lizzie." Reva said.
Jonathan rolled his eyes, which did not go unnoticed by Lizzie.
"What the hell was that for?"
"Lizzie, watch the words in front of Sarah."
"Sorry, but why did roll your eyes, that was uncalled for."
"Uncalled for, Bill Lewis is not anything all that great."
"Yes he is, you don't even know him, plus how would you know anything about being great?"
A little bit of the old Lizzie appeared in her last statement, for is she were still the old Lizzie, she's be complaining about Jonathan's current lifestyle, but as much as she cared for both Jonathan and Bill, Bill did have things that Jonathan did not.
"Jonathan I'm sorry, that came out wrong."
"Sorry…"
Words like that just enraged Jonathan. He always knew that he'd never be able to compare to the Spaulding, Lewis, hell even the Cooper family, but he would do anything to make his life better for Sarah. Sarah was his guiding force of life, which he considered a great life. In fact Sarah was his only life.
"Sorry Lizzie you'll never change."
"Whoa Jonathan now you're out of line saying that." Reva spoke up.
"Lizzie has changed, yes she probably should not have said what she said, but she is changed more than you know."
Lizzie looked to Reva's direction with a thankful smile, but she could not stop a few tears from forming in her eyes.
"I'm really sorry about what I said, maybe I'm just jealous that you are giving Sarah a life that I can't even contribute too, but I'm not about to let you bash Bill. He loves me Jonathan, and he makes my life better everyday, he is the one person that keeps me sane whenever I get upset about you, Sarah, and Tammy."
Jonathan kept a straight face at the mention of his deceased wife's name. He could not let it deter him for the rest of his life.
"You can say all of those things Lizzie, but it's still not going to change my opinion of Bill, he is just using you."
Now Jonathan was the one saying the wrong thing, but Lizzie was not going to let it get to her.
"Using me, you wish he was using me, makes me wonder why you'd say something like that Jonathan; it makes me think you are jealous."
"Why would I have anything to be jealous about, why would I care that you're in love with someone new."
Lizzie was surprisingly quiet, as the words "love with some new" constantly repeated in her thoughts and brain.
"He is jealous."
Lizzie held Sarah a bit tighter like she was giving her hug, after a minute she loosened her hold.
"Hey Sarah you want to see grandma Reva?"
"Hey what did I say about calling me 'grandma'." Reva said jokingly, she loved both her grandchildren Sarah and Daisy.
Lizzie handed Sarah over to Reva
"Yeah there you go." Lizzie looked at Sarah one more time, and then looked at Jonathan.
"Well if you excuse me, I'll be back." Lizzie walked out of Jonathan's apartment.
"Whoa were is she going?" Reva asked a confused Jonathan.
"I don't know, probably getting something out of her car."
Jonathan patted Sarah's back as she sat in Reva's arms
"So, you're jealous of Bill ha?"
"No I'm not."
"Ok then, you're not jealous of Bill. You're jealous of the fact that and I quote 'Lizzie is in love with someone new'."
"I just said that to make Lizzie mad."
"Jonathan did she look mad too you, no; she's knows it, I know it, you're jealous, and it is ok to say that your are."
"No it's not."
Reva finally got Jonathan to admit it. There was not shame in Jonathan being jealous; he has history with Lizzie, plus a child with Lizzie. Not to mention the fact that he almost married her again, and lost out to Lizzie's new love. If Jonathan were to say he never had any feelings for Lizzie would be crazy, it would be like saying that herself did not still have feelings for Josh.
"See there you go, you--"
"Reva just drop it, what is taking Lizzie so long?"
Reva shrugged her shoulders, then focused her attention to Sarah as Jonathan peeked out his window to view Lizzie's car.
"Huh, Lizzie were are you?"
Lizzie's car was stood still but no Lizzie in sight. Jonathan went to the door opened it, and stuck his head out, still no Lizzie in sight.
"Lizzie… Reva Lizzie is now where in sight." Jonathan looked back at Reva as he spoke, and then watched as Sarah began to cry.
Please leave a review, and get ready for chapter four: the accident mentioned in the summary of this story happens. It just sad that Lizzie don't get to be with Sarah, or Bill right now on the show, thankfully we have this site and can let our imaginations go wild. I had to mention Josh in here; well sometimes the Jeva saga is annoying (as they constantly look like Jeva will get back together) but I've never been a Josh/Cassie fan, and I hate the Reva/Jeffery pairing. Chapter four shall be up soon, thanks:
Logan-e.
