Chapter 9 A Little Chat

************

Standing open mouthed at Sky's last comment, Sophie couldn't believe what she was hearing. He'd never showed much interest in his daughter before and when he did, it was always under duress. Now all of a sudden, he was trying to make out he was nominated for 'Daddy of The Year' and that he cared about little Emma upbringing. It was all a front and Sophie could see right through her ex-fiancé. The truth of the matter was, he didn't like being told what to do and seeing this side of Sophie, got his back up. So far everything had been on Sky's terms and Sophie had most definitely had enough of his carefree attitude. The only reason he played a small role in the baby girl's life, was to keep his parents quiet. Emma was their only grandchild and without Sky keeping Sophie sweet, they knew they'd eventually lose contact with her, something they weren't prepared to do. Sophie knew all this, she wasn't stupid and for a short while she'd chosen to just turn a blind eye, hoping Sky would come to his senses in the end.

"Rights?" Sophie said, slowly shaking her head at Sky. "And what exactly are your rights huh?…To screw Emma's life up as much as you have mine? To see her whenever you feel like it?…Come on, tell me." She demanded, her tone now becoming angered, as she stared icily at him.

"Don't play dumb Sophie, you know exactly what I mean." Responded Sky, stepping closer towards her. "She's my daughter. I have a right to spend time with her."

Stepping away from Sky and walking past him, Sophie ran up the stairs to her bedroom. She was pissed and feeling brave, as a surge of motherly love forced her to become even more protective of her baby. Reaching the top step, she instantly found what she was looking for. She grabbed Sky's packed bag and ran back down the stairs, where he was still stood in the same place where she'd left him. Silently staring at his ex, Sky watched as she walked past him, opened the goat house door and threw his belongings out onto the stone floor.

"I'll say it again Sky." Said Sophie, turning back to face him and placing her hands on her slim hips. "Get out." She finished, her voice now raised enough to show him she meant business.

Shaking his head, Sky walked purposely towards the petite blonde. "And I'll say it again." He said, standing a few inches away from her and staring straight into her baby, blue eyes. "You can't stop me from seeing my daughter Sophie. She's my flesh and blood and it'll kill my parents if they never see her again."

Feeling a little uneasy about her ex standing so close to her, Sophie tried to back away. "So that's what the change of heart is about?…Your parents." She replied, letting out a sarcastic snort of laughter, as she felt herself backing up against the open door. "You're a joke Sky. That's what you are, a joke."

Sky remained quiet for a few moments and Sophie could see he was starting to get angry with her. Glancing down at his clenched fists by his side, she was beginning to think she may have pushed him too far... Sophie knew Sky's relationship with his mother and father was far from great and the only reason he tolerated them, was because they paid his way whenever he felt like taking off on a whim. He was a mummy's boy and used it to his advantage, something Sophie used to wind him up about when they first started dating… He walked towards her, his faced flushed with rage and this was the first time ever, Sophie had ever felt threatened by her ex-fiancé.

"I'm a joke?" Hissed Sky, coming to a stop a few feet away from Sophie. "What about you? Running back to Mommy and Daddy all the time like a lost little girl." He continued, moving towards her again. "But that's right, we don't know if he really is your Daddy, because your precious mother didn't know how to keep her legs shut."

Sophie could feel Sky's breath on her face and as his vicious words registered, she could feel the tears welling up in her eyes. "That's low Sky, even by your standards. You have no right to say things about my mom." She said quietly, ignoring the tears now tricking down her cheeks. "After everything she did for you…Giving you a job and a roof over your head for years…"

Standing outside the goat house, Donna and Sam had heard everything. Hurt and upset by Sky's words, Donna couldn't speak as she carefully cradled a sleeping Emma in her arms. She had held her husband back, telling him he should let their daughter handle this on her own, but now, she'd heard enough. Sky was bullying Sophie, trying to hurt her the best way he knew how…Insulting her mother. Sam turned and noticed his wife's silent tears and now he had had enough too. Storming through the door, he took the young man by surprise and grabbed him by the front of his t-shirt.

"I think it's time we had a little chat sunshine." Hissed Sam, dragging an unsuspecting Sky out of the goat house and slamming him up against the white exterior wall.

"Sam, take it easy." Pleaded Donna, taking hold of a sobbing Sophie and wrapping a protective arm around her, as she buried her face into the crease of her mother's neck.

Seeing her husband so worked up scared Donna. All the memories of his fight with Dan came rushing back and turned her stomach at the thought of him going from a gentle person, to a savage beast in the blink of an eye. He wasn't like that, it wasn't him. It was the whole situation that had been eating away at the pair of them, since Sky had decided to abandon their pregnant daughter. Sam was protective of his family and couldn't stand the thought of anyone hurting them in any way. Holding back and listening to Sky talking to Sophie like a piece of crap, had made him snap and he wasn't about to sit back and do nothing. It had gone on for far too long and now it was time for him to step up as a father and husband, brining it to an end.

Ignoring his wife's plea, Sam kept his tight hold on the young man and stared right into his eyes. "Now trying to threaten my daughter is bad enough, but when you insult my wife…You've overstepped the mark." He said in a low, menacing tone, feeling Sky's body tense as he stared back at him. "You have been asked by Sophie, to get your stuff and leave. Now are you going to listen and go, or do I have to make you myself?" He asked, tilting his head and raising his eyebrows.

Sky glanced over at Sophie and his daughter sleeping in the crook of Donna's arm. "I'm going." He answered quietly, turning back to look Sam in the eye.

"Good answer." Replied Sam, slowly releasing his hold on Sky and backing away from him.

Bending down to pick up his holdall, Sky stared coldly at Sophie as she peered up at him, from the safety of her mother's tight hold. Hearing raised voices on their way back from the beach, Ben and Zack had walked round the corner and witnessed their father pinning Sky against the wall. They both knew what was going on, as the Dynamos had given them the low down on the situation and feeling a special bond between them and Sophie, the boys had been far from impressed. They had fallen in love with their small niece and couldn't quite understand, why Sky didn't really want much to do with her upbringing. Now standing a few feet away, the boys stayed silent, waiting for Sky's next move.

"Don't think this is over Sophie." Said Sky, in a final attempt to get his point across. "You can't just erase me from Emma's life." He finished, shaking his head at her.

"Need a hand with your stuff Sky?" Asked Ben, walking over and taking hold of his bag, before throwing to his brother. "You come anywhere my sister again and you'll know about it, you fucking prick." He said in a threatening voice, leaning close to Sky's ear.

Sam was about to step in, not wanting his sons to have to get involved, but watched in amazement, as Zack launched Sky's bag over the wall near the entrance of the hotel. Sky stepped back from Ben and glanced one last time at Sophie, still stood with her mom. Now he knew for sure, he'd outstayed his welcome. He could handle Sam playing the hero, but he was now backed up by his two strapping sons and he was beginning to feel outnumbered. Without saying another word, Sky turned and walked away. Grabbing his bag on his way down the steps, he cursed under his breath and vowed he'd get his own back some day soon.

************

Felling proud of his two sons, for sticking up for Sophie like that, Sam joined them at the bar for a well earned beer. He could tell they both thought a lot about Sophie and hoped that the test he was going to organise, would confirm that she was indeed their half sister. Spending time with Ben and Zack, gave his wife the opportunity to spend much needed time with her emotional daughter. Sophie was upset and understandably so, with her run in with Sky. He had hurt her and his cruel words about her mother had cut deep.

"How much of that did you hear?" Asked Sophie, curled up on her bed, as she watched Donna gently laying a still sleeping Emma, down in her crib.

After tucking her gorgeous granddaughter in with her pink blanket, Donna walked over to Sophie's bed and climbed on next to her. "All of it." She answered, laying her head down on the pillow next to her daughter's.

Feeling her tears falling from her eyes once more, Sophie snuggled up close to her mother. "I'm so sorry Mom. I can't believe he could be so nasty." She said quietly, feeling Donna pulling her close. "He had no right to say anything about you."

"Shhhh baby girl." Whispered Donna, gently stroking her daughter's soft curls. "It doesn't matter now. It's over."

Even though Sky's words had hurt, Donna refused to let him get to her now… No, they didn't know for sure if Sam was Sophie's father, but that was soon going to change. Her past had been a well guarded secret for so long and even though it was all out in the open now, she still felt guilty for keeping it from her daughter's three potential fathers. She wasn't proud about her past and she had had to live with it on her mind for so many lonely years. Sophie and her happiness, meant the world to Donna and that was all she'd ever strived for. She was exactly the same with little Emma too, knowing as long as she and Sam were around, the small tot would never want for anything…

"I love you Mom." Whispered Sophie, closing her stinging eyes and relaxing in her mother's arms.

Closing her eyes too, Donna sighed deeply. "I love you too Soph." She whispered, as they both fell asleep within minutes.

************

Since Sky's departure from the island, the mood around the villa had lifted and the Dynamos were disappointed, they'd slept through the action packed eviction. Dinner had been fun, with Sam insisting Rosie didn't cook after her hard work the previous night. Ordering in pizza's from the mainland, the boys had enjoyed rallying Donna's jeep around, on their way down to collect them from the dock. Donna on the other hand, had been far from impressed with their actions, after hearing them skidding to a loud halt, stopping millimetres away from the arched entrance to her hotel. Not being able to stay mad at them for long, she had melted at their cute smiles and even given them money from her husband's wallet, to go out on the mainland later that night. Everything was back to normal and everyone was happy once more.

Clearing away the last of the left over pizza, Donna yawned as she threw the pile of boxes into the garbage can and placed her hands on her bump. "Bedtime little one." She whispered to herself, as she turned out the kitchen light and walked out into the cool night breeze.

Sam was sat waiting for his wife by the bar and smiled as she beckoned him to follow her up to bed. "Now there's an offer I can't refuse." He giggled, wiggling his eyebrows at her and standing to follow.

Finally reaching the bedroom, Sam was surprised to find his wife already stripped off and laying in bed. She looked exhausted, as she wriggled down under the covers and smiled sweetly at him. It had been a long day for all of them and while Donna had been spending time with Sophie, Sam had called Doctor Christou, to arrange the DNA test.

Stripping of himself, Sam couldn't wait to climb into bed next to the warmth of his wife's body. "I've arranged the test." He announced, as he slid into bed next to Donna and pulled her into his strong arms, placing a tender kiss on her lips.

"What? When?" Asked Donna, slightly shocked as she turned round in her husband's arms and gazed into his eyes. "You kept that one quiet."

Smiling, Sam trailed his fingertips down Donna's arm, as she reached up to stroke his cheek. "After the boys kicked Sky out." He answered, laughing softly at the thought of his sons being so protective of their sister. "I figured there was no point stalling. I want to know, just as much as Soph." He finished, starting to look a little sad.

Donna sighed, watching her husband's expression change so suddenly. "I'm so sorry darling." She whispered, leaning forward to kiss his lips. "I truly am." She added, feeling her heart aching at the thought of Sam's anguish.

"Hey, what are you sorry for?" Asked Sam, peering into his wife's green eyes and noticing them filling with tears.

"For putting you through this. For putting Soph through this." Replied Donna, closing her eyes, in an attempt to stop her tears from making an escape down her face. "Sky was right. I shouldn't have been such a slut…"

Pulling her even closer, Sam delicately kissed Donna's lips, making her open her eyes at his tenderness. "Darling, you are not a slut and I won't have you saying things like that. You were young, we both were. Things happen in life that we can't go back and change. We have to learn to live with them and move on." He said, now gently wiping his beautiful wife's tears away. "We're a family and no matter what that test says, Sophie is still my daughter."

Smiling at her husband's touching words, Donna couldn't help herself kissing him again and again. Sam responded to his wife's kiss, sliding his hand down to the dip of her back, causing her to moan softly at his sensitive touch on her naked flesh. They knew it wasn't going to end in sex tonight, they were both just enjoying the closeness of the moment and as Donna broke for much needed air, she turned in Sam's arms. Cuddling up close behind his wife, Sam leant forward and placed one last kiss on her cheek, sliding his hand round to rest on her bump.

"So when do we go?" Asked Donna, placing her hand over her husband's and getting comfortable on her pillow.

Closing his eyes, Sam pulled the warm covers up tighter around their perfectly spooned bodies. "Tomorrow morning." He answered, returning his hand to stroke Donna's pregnant belly.

***********

After a terrible night's sleep of tossing and turning, Donna gently moved Sam's arm from around her waist and slid out of bed. It wasn't even six o'clock yet, but she'd given up on trying to get comfortable and decided to go and make some fresh coffee. Pulling on her robe, Donna tied it tightly around her growing bump and quietly made her way down to the courtyard… She loved the early mornings on Kalokairi, with the crisp sea breeze wafting up from the beach bellow and the sound of the native birds singing their dawn chorus. It was always the same throughout the seasons and that was what had made her fall in love with Greece all those years previous…

Before reaching the kitchen, Donna looked across towards the guest quarters and wondered if her stepsons had returned from their night out safely. Postponing the idea of coffee, she climbed the steps to room seven and quietly approached the door. Not wanting to wake Ben and Zack so early, Donna turned the handle to take a quick peek round the door. No surprise, it was unlocked as usual and as she glanced across at the beds, she noticed Ben's was empty. Allowing her eyes to adjust to the dark room, she peered over at Zack's and quickly found he was there, but he wasn't on his own. Donna's mouth dropped open, as she realised her nineteen year old son, was asleep with his arms draped across a naked blonde. Quietly closing the door, she turned and made her way to the kitchen. Coffee was starting to feel like the best plan now. She wasn't happy that her youngest son had brought a one night stand back to the villa and she knew her husband would be even less impressed.

"Morning Mom." Said Ben sheepishly, as he came face to face with Donna in the courtyard.

Staring at a half dressed Ben, with his arm draped over the shoulder of a scantily clad, giggling brunette, Donna shook her head. "What the hell are you and your brother playing at?" She asked in an angered tone, tightening her robe. "Looking at the state of you two, there's no guessing what you've been up to on the beach."

Trying not to giggle, Ben peered down at the stone floor. "Sorry." He responded quietly, as his female companion giggled again.

"Sorry isn't going to cut it this time Ben." Said Donna calmly, even though she felt like screaming at him. "This might be a hotel, but it's also my home. Now you may think it's okay to be treating it like some cheap motel, but I certainly don't." She continued, staring coldly at her eldest son, as he finally looked up at her.

Donna was fuming and Ben knew he and his brother had disappointed her. He felt bad, after everything she had done for them and now they had let her down badly. If his father found out about it, their lives wouldn't be worth living. Ben was nervous and wondered if his stepmother would keep it quiet or feel it necessary to tell him about what they'd done. He remained silent, just looking at Donna worriedly, as she shook her head at him once more.

"I'm going to make some coffee." Said Donna after a long pause. "I want you to go wake your brother and his date." She continued, with a sigh, as the girl with Ben giggled uncontrollably. "You can both escort the girls down to the dock and then come and find me. I think it's time to set a few ground rules."

Ben nodded and quickly dragged the brunette with him, as he went to find his younger brother. Watching them disappear round the corner towards the guest quarters, Donna took a deep breath and continued her short walk to the kitchen. She knew she'd made herself understood with her stepson and now she wanted to stop her husband finding out. Sam would only kick off with their sons and knowing he was already worried about going for the DNA test later on, she wanted to keep things as calm as possible. Being a mother to three grown kids was proving to be harder than she thought it'd be. With everything that had gone on with Sophie, Ben's ex-girlfriend going for a termination and Zack hating her in the very beginning, Donna was doing well to stay so strong.

**********

With everyone now up around the villa, the Carmichael's had got dressed after eating breakfast on the balcony together and Donna had managed to have her talk with the boys, without Sam being none the wiser. She could tell her husband was nervous, by the way he kept checking his watch every few minutes and if she was to be honest with herself, she was too.

"It's going to be okay honey." Said Donna, standing up from the balcony table and following her husband back into their bedroom. "Relax."

Turning to face his wife, Sam smiled and held his arms out towards her. "I know it is sweetheart." He said quietly, wrapping his arms around her, as Donna ran her hands down his chest and rested her head on his shoulder. "I don't know why I'm so tense."

Raising her head to peer into her husband's gorgeous blue eyes, Donna grinned wickedly at him. "Would a kiss calm you down?" She asked, biting her lower lip and trailing her hands up to the collar of his shirt.

"Yes I think it might." Answered Sam, laughing at the naughty glint in his wife's eyes.

Pushing Sam back against the wall, Donna placed her mouth over his and kissed him slow and tenderly, running her hands down the front of his shirt. Sam moaned softly as Donna eventually slid her tongue fully into his mouth brushing it against his own. With her hands still exploring the masculine contours of her husband's body, Donna brought them to a rest on his belt buckle and proceeded to undo it, along with the buttons to his jeans. Sam could feel himself hardening at an alarming rate, wondering what his beautiful wife's intentions were. All was soon apparent, as Donna wasted no time pushing them down, along with his underwear and she broke from their passionate kiss to give him a cheeky wink.

"What are you up to woman?" Sam asked, his eyes wide with excitement, as he watched his wife slowly sink to her knees in front of him.

Not needing to answer her husband's question, Donna gently took hold of his solid erection and ran her tongue around the tip. Sam groaned and closed his eyes, at the sensation of his wife now taking his manhood deep into her mouth. Starting slow and teasing, Donna varied the pressure and worked her husband up towards his climax. His breathing became shallow and rapid, as Sam reached down and ran his fingers through his wife's blonde waves. She knew exactly what she was doing and listening to Sam's increasing lust filled moans, Donna upped the pace for the last time. Swirling her tongue and taking him even deeper, she knew he was close to coming and reached round to grab his naked rear.

Feeling himself begin to climax, Sam couldn't hold back as his wife's lips and tongue drove him wild. "Shit Donnaaaaaaaaaaaa." He moaned, as his whole body tensed and he hit an earth shattering orgasm.

Slowly pulling away from her husband, after she was sure he was satisfied, Donna smiled confidently and discretely wiped the corner of her mouth. Sam was still breathing hard, but had a huge smile on his face, as he extended his hand to help his pregnant wife back to her feet. Tilting her head to one side, Donna giggled and wrapped her arms around Sam's waist.

"Better?" Donna asked, watching Sam slowly shake his head at her, as he tenderly stroked her cheek.

Raising an eyebrow at her, Sam laughed. "Much." He replied, pulling her close and kissing her passionately on the lips.

Throwing her head back and emitting a throaty laugh, Donna parted from their embrace and slowly looked her husband up and down. "Good. Now I think you better get your pants back on honey, we don't want to be late do we?" She said, checking her appearance in the mirror, before grabbing her purse from the dressing table and leaving the room.

After rearranging his clothing, Sam couldn't take the huge grin off his face, as he followed his wife down to the courtyard. Donna was stood waiting for him and Sophie and giggled at his flushed complexion. It wasn't long before they were joined by Sophie, carrying baby Emma. Noticing her daughter's confused expression, Donna turned and smiled, wondering whatever could be the matter with her.

"Ermmm Mom, Zack's just been to the goat house to ask me if there was any laundry I needed doing." Said Sophie, shaking her head in disbelief. "Since when do teenage guys do laundry?"

Donna started laughing and turned to walk towards the entrance steps to the hotel. She knew her little talk with her sons had worked wonders, when she'd threatened to tell their father about their behaviour. When they had apologised profusely and asked if there was anything they could do to make it up to her, Donna had simply asked for a bit of help around the villa and by the looks of it, they had started straight away.

"I could ask the same thing." Said Sam, now walking along side his wife and narrowing his eyes at her smirk.

Talking hold of her husband's hand, as she walked carefully down the rocky path to the jeep, Donna turned her head and winked at her daughter. "It's amazing what you get, when you ask for something quietly and authoritatively." She said, trying hard not to burst out laughing at Sam and Sophie's shocked faces.
