Years Later
Summary: Clare is out of hospital and confronts Fitz.
1st Part
It was three days later and Clare was out of hospital, she had just dropped Tyler off at home and was on her way to going to Fitz's apartment. She had decided that she would not let him see Tyler at all if he continues to be violent towards other people. She stopped at a red light and opened her purse to check something when a photo slipped out. It was her and Fitz; he was holding Tyler who was a baby. She couldn't help but smile, that was when they were a family, she sighed Fitz hurt Joel what if he hurt Tyler? She knew he wouldn't but she couldn't help but be very protective of Tyler.
2nd Part
For the past three days Fitz had just sat around his apartment drinking and showering occasionally, he would just sit around thinking about Clare and what Joel had said
"Take Tyler and your new baby and leave forever." Joel had said Fitz wouldn't normally do that but if he did Clare would be able to live a new life without having to deal with having kids that have a different father then the kids she'll have with Joel, he sighed why did he have to be in love with Clare Edwards? He could love anyone of his past girlfriends but no he had to love just one girl. He was sitting there moping when he heard the door open.
"Why don't you ever lock your door?" Clare asked annoyed. Fitz looked at her
"What are you doing here?" He asked her ignoring her earlier comment. Clare glared at him
"You attacked Joel." She said crossing her arms over her chest. Fitz stood up, he couldn't believe this she thought he attacked Joel.
"No he attacked me." Fitz said.
"He has a black eye." She said. Fitz scoffed and motioned to his face which had more bruises.
"Who do you think did this?" Asked Fitz
"I don't know, maybe one of your stupid friends." Clare said shrugging
"No Joel." Fitz told her,
"Out of self defence." Clare said Fitz shook his head
"You'd believe Joel over me?" asked Fitz visibly upset Clare nodded
"Yes, he's my fiancé." Clare said
"So what he lied to you." Fitz said but Clare shook her head. Fitz started to get very angry
"He wouldn't do that." Clare said Fitz laughed bitterly
"Yeah right, because he's so perfect, he never does anything of this sort what shit has he been giving you?" Fitz said bitterly. Clare was pissed so she walked over to him and slapped him, Fitz held his cheek and looked at Clare who was looking at him a little bit shocked that she had done that. Fitz put his hands on her shoulders and crushed his lips onto hers, she wrapped her arms around his neck, and Fitz pressed their bodies together so that there was no space between them at all. But then the moment was over and Clare had pulled back. She stepped back from him and put her hand over her mouth, she couldn't believe she had just kissed him, she was supposed to be mad at him.
"Clare..." He began but Clare shook her head
"I got to go." Was all she said before leaving Fitz's apartment. Fitz just stood there shell shocked, he could tell by the way she kissed him that she still loved him he was sure of it and would make her see that if it was the last thing he did.
