Mattie looked at Patrick not believing the words he was saying.
"Patrick, we have been apart for do long. I want us to have the chance to know each other. I want to get to know Robin, your baby. I want to be your mom again."
"I have a mom?" Patrick said.
"What? Noah remarried?"
"Yeah, her name is Bobbie. She is a nurse at General Hospital where we all work. They got together when I was nine and married when I was thirteen." I have two step sisters and one step brother. My sister BJ died when I was eleven. My sister Carly has two boys and is getting married for the fifth time. My brother Lucas is in college at PCU. I have a family, a life. I don't want you in it. I don't want you anywhere near Robin or our baby."
"I think we should go." Robin said. "Mac is expecting us for dinner at six."
"Ok, well I guess this is it." Patrick said. "Goodbye."
Patrick and Robin walked from the house and got in the car. They heard Mattie yelling after him, but didn't bother to stop. They except going. Robin looked and saw a few tears had escaped his eyes.
"Pull over." Robin said.
Patrick did and sat his head on his hands and cried. Robin moved over and held him in her arms.
"It's going to be ok." Robin whispered into his ear.
Patrick held her tighter until he knew she was real and was a dream he was going to wake up from. He knew he had to confront his past, he just didn't think it was going to be this hard. He always wanted his mom back in his life, but after what her reasoning was, he saw that she was truly selfish and wouldn't be a part of his life. His life was now with Robin and their baby. He had a mom and a dad. He had a life. A family that was always there for him. Sure they were a tight as everyone would love, but in times of need they were there and that's what always matter.
"Patrick, are you ok?" Robin asked.
"This is real right? You're not going to disappear and have all this be nothing. I'm not standing on the docks daydreaming this am I?"
"This is real Patrick." Robin said lightly touching his face. "I am real. That night was real. I am here with you."
She leaned forward and kissed him passionately. Pulling him closer and closer to her. Patrick giggled as Robin went to work on the buttons on his shirt.
"Robin, we are in the car." Patrick said.
"So, I want to make love to you." Robin said capturing his lips again. They don't know how they did it but soon she was on top of him and they were making love. The windows were steamed and the sounds of pure pleasure were all that could be heard.
A while later they were heading back into Port Charles. Robin smiled over at Patrick who was humming away with the radio. She loved looking at this man.
"So, soon to be Mrs. Drake, did all your Christmas wishes come true?"
"Most." Robin said. "Last year I wished I would find a way out and I did. I never dreamed I would be in love, having a baby and getting married. This is a life time of wishes coming true. I have my family and my life is wonderful."
"You said most, what wishes haven't come true?" Patrick asked.
"Patrick, most wont come true until this little one is born happy and healthy and until we are married."
Patrick smiled at her.
"This next year I plan on making every dream, wish and want come true."
"My dream is a life with you and this baby, maybe a few more, my wish is that we are happy and healthy forever and my want is is, just you."
"Mine too." Patrick said. "The past is behind us and the future is bright ahead."
"Yes, we will remember the good times, the great time and we will make sure they are with us always." Robin said. "Fighting for Robin as you used to say is over. I can fight for what I want now, but I don't have to because I have it all. I have everything my heart wants. I love you Patrick Drake."
'I love you Robin Scorpio." Patrick said leaning over and quickly kissing her. "I will always fight for you."
"And I will always fight for you." Robin said. "Come on, Mac said dinner was at six and we are going to be late."
Soon they pulled up in front of Mac's house and stropped in the front yard as the snow started to fall all around them.
"Now it's Christmas." Patrick said.
"It most certainly is." Robin said jumping into his arms as he spun her around.
All their family and friends watched as the joy of the season beamed from them as the snow fell and life was finally at peace with joy and love all around.
The End
I hope you have enjoyed Fighting for Robin. I promise a fallow up with their wedding and one for when baby makes three.
