Years Later
Summary: Wedding preparations are in full swing Joel finds the guest list and sees a name he doesn't like and Clare get's a shock.
It was 3 months after she and Fitz had slept together. Fitz had thankfully kept quiet about it and Clare was happy about that. Planning for her wedding had kept her mind from drifting to how guilty she was for sleeping with Fitz. She was trying on dresses with Bianca. Clare and Bianca had become very close over the years because of Fitz and Tyler. She was in one of the dressing rooms when she started to feel very dizzy and faint. She leaned against the wall.
"Clare you ok in there?" asked Bianca
"Yeah." Clare said she knew it didn't sound very convincing but it was the best she could manage at the moment.
"You sure you don't sound so good." Bianca said. Clare took a deep breath and felt a little better, she stood up straighter and looked in the mirror, the dress she was wearing was beautiful, though a little tight, it was white, and flowed to the floor it had a few crystals on the bodice, she loved it. A wave of queasiness hit her and before she knew it everything went black. Bianca heard a little thud she walked over from where she was one of the racks to where she heard the noise.
"Clare?" She asked, silence she panicked and pulled the curtain open and saw Clare slumped against one of the walls, she rushed over to her.
"Clare!" She exclaimed another lady in the shop came over to see what wrong; she saw Bianca was on the ground beside an unconscious woman,
"Someone call an ambulance a young woman has fainted!" Yelled the woman, a large panic happened in the store. Bianca was starting to really panic when she couldn't wake Clare up.
"Come on Clare wake up." She begged cradling Clare's head on her knees. A few minutes later an ambulance arrived and took Clare to the hospital they asked Clare for her details on the way. Once at the hospital she called Tyler's school and they said they would let him leave, after that she called Fitz to pick Tyler up and get him here. Joel worked at the hospital so she didn't need to call him. She waited patiently for news on her condition. Joel came down for a second and wanted news on Clare but there was none. He had gotten a call so he had to go, he told Bianca to tell him when there was news. Fitz and Tyler finally arrived and Tyler was visibly upset.
"How's mummy?" He asked on the verge of crying Fitz sat down next to Bianca and picked up Tyler and put him on his lap and hugged him close.
"I don't know yet but your mum is going to ok." Bianca told him.
"Yeah kid, Clare's going to be fine." Fitz said unconvincingly. Tyler buried his head against Fitz's. They waited for another 20 minutes until the doctor came out again.
"Are there any relatives of Clare Edwards here?" asked a middle aged doctor holding a clipboard.
"This is her son." Bianca said as she and Fitz stood up. The doctor frowned, and turned to Fitz.
"Are you Ms. Edwards's fiancé?" asked the doctor; Fitz was at a loss for words he got his voice back
"Uh, yes I am." He said, Bianca turned to him shocked, sure he felt a little bad for saying that but he wanted to know if she was ok. The doctor nodded
"Ok, Clare is going to be perfectly fine, the baby is fine she fainted from exhaustion." The doctor explained, Fitz mouth hung out, she was pregnant, and Bianca stood there shocked too.
"She's pregnant?" Fitz said incredulously. The doctor looked at him
"I take it you didn't know; Clare is at least 3 months congratulations and she'll have to stay for a few days for observation." The doctor said.
"Thank you doctor." Bianca said, the doctor nodded and walked off. Bianca turned to Fitz
"Well, she's pregnant; Joel's going to be so happy." Bianca said, Fitz gulped
"Tyler why don't you go to Clare's room ok." Fitz said to Tyler, Tyler nodded and ran off.
"Fitz why do you look so shocked?" asked Bianca.
"About three months ago me and Clare slept together." Fitz explained. Bianca hit her arm.
"How could you be so stupid?" She demanded Fitz shrugged
"I love her B." Was all he said before walking off to see Clare. Bianca sighed and followed him.
Fitz entered the room and saw Tyler sitting on the bed talking with Clare.
"Hey Clare." Fitz said once Clare heard his voice he turned his head and saw him standing there. Bianca entered the room and rushed over to Clare and hugged her.
"Don't ever do that to me again!" She exclaimed, Clare laughed
"I don't plan on it." Clare said weakly.
"Hey I have to talk to Clare for a second, Bianca can you take Tyler to get something." Fitz said, Bianca nodded and took Tyler by the hand they left
"We'll be back mummy." Tyler said as they left
"Ok sweetie." Clare said. Fitz closed the door and walked over and sat on the chair that was next to the bed.
"So how are you feeling?" he asked her. Clare sighed
"I've been better." She replied. Fitz nodded
"So, you're pregnant." Fitz said, he looked over to Clare who went pale and nodded
"Yep." was all she said,
"So who do you think is the father?" He asked her,
"I guess you are." Clare said looking extremely guilty. Fitz's heartbeat quickened, he got Clare pregnant again and Clare is getting married to somebody else in almost 5 months.
"What if it's Joel's?" He asked her, Clare shook her head.
"The doctor told me I was three months and three months ago you and I slept together so it's yours." Clare said
"Did you sleep with him at all three months ago?" Fitz asked her. Clare shook her head,
"He was on a business trip that whole time, so no we did not have sex." Clare said.
"So what are we going to do?" asked Fitz.
