a/n: I only own the OC.
Thanks for all the reviews!
Scott POV
I was glad to see Constance and I was happier that she and Matt were dating. I knew that she was hesitant about it, but I also knew that he really liked her. I could tell that something had changed in the last month, more than just that she was dating Matt, but I didn't know what it was. I knew that either she would tell me or I would figure it out.
I was sitting outside when she sat down. Matt, Kofi, and Kofi's wife had just left to go home. She smiled as she sat down. I handed her a beer when she sat down, but she shook her head no. I watched when she sat down she rested her hand on her stomach.
"How long have you known?" I asked her when it all clicked.
"What?" she asked me.
"You are turning down your favorite beer and all night you have been running your hand over your stomach. When did you find out that you were pregnant?" I asked her and she looked shocked.
"How did you get that from that?" I asked her.
"My ex did it when she found out she was pregnant… I found out when I came from after being in Japan for 6 months. I knew that it didn't add up." I said and she smiled.
"I always wondered by you and crazy broke up." She said and I laughed.
"Yeah, well, she wasn't the one that stole my heart years ago." I said and she took my hand.
"I'm sorry for that." She whispered and I kissed the back of her hand.
"I'm not." I said and she smiled.
"Are you going to tell Phil?" I asked her and she sighed.
"I don't know… I don't know what to do." I said and she sighed.
"Well, you know that I am here for you and I know that Matt will be too." I told her and she nodded.
"He was happy when I found out." She said and I smiled. I knew that Matt really did care, but I also knew that if by some small chance that Phil wanted it then he would do the right thing.
We talked and I was just glad that she was happy with everything. I also hoped that if she told Phil he would accept it or he never found out.
Phil POV
I was in Chicago and I knew that Scott was home. I wanted to hang out so I headed over there. I walked in and he was on the phone.
"Hey, Constance, you ok?" I heard him asked. I felt a pang of guilt go through my heart. I would be lying if I said that I didn't think of her at least once a day. She wasn't Amy and she never would be, but I didn't know if I could ever get her back.
"I'm sorry, babe, I'm sure that the pregnancy will get easier once your are out of the first trimester." He said and I snapped back to reality. She was pregnant.
"Well, at least you only have 6 more months to go." He said and I immediately started to count… it was three months ago. It was the days around the FCW party. I felt my body go numb and I wanted to do was scream. I had never wanted to be a father, but now I just wanted answers.
I left before Scott got off the phone. I ended up on the first flight to Florida. I needed to see her… I had to know.
Constance POV
I woke up the next morning and walked into the kitchen. I wanted coffee so bad and I smiled when I remembered that Matt had gotten me decaf. I made some and looked outside. I saw a figure sleeping on one of the lounge chairs. I immediately knew who it was without even taking a second look. I saw the faded Cubs hat pulled low over his eyes, but I had to wonder what he was doing here.
I finished the coffee, poured two cups, and walked outside. I sat them on the table and gently shook Phil. He sat up after a second and looked at me. I sat down across from him and watched his expression go from happy, to sad, to confused, to hurt in just a matter of seconds.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him.
"I came to find out the truth." He said and I was confused.
"Well, fine, it's true that you're still an ass… now you know the truth and you can leave." I said as he ran his hands over his face.
"No, I knew that… I meant I wanted to know if you were pregnant or not." He said and I froze. I didn't know how he could know that since only a few people knew it.
"No, Scott, didn't tell me… I found out by walking in on an interesting phone call." He said and I pursed my lips together.
"So, why couldn't you just call?" she asked me and I sighed. I had to admit that seemed logical compared to flying here in a frenzy.
"I had to know in person." I admitted and she nodded.
"Yes, Phil, I'm pregnant." She finally said and it hit me. She really was carrying my child.
"Are you going to keep it?" I asked her and she glared at me.
"Yes, I am, but don't worry I won't make you have anything to do with it. I know that you don't want anything to do with me, so I don't expect that you will with your child." She snapped at me and I felt anger.
"I wanted everything to do with you!" I said to her.
"Right, you sure as hell showed it." She said and stood up to go inside. I stopped her and pulled her back to sit down.
"Don't touch me… you didn't show it. You moved on to someone who gave you what you wanted right then." She said and I sighed.
"You never let me explain." I said and she laughed at me.
"Explain what? You fucked her because I wasn't around… you can't explain it much more than that. I don't want to know what you were thinking, because you weren't!" she said.
"I love you!" I blurted out and she gave me an icy expression.
"No, you don't… you aren't capable of that." She said and I sighed.
"Constance, I'm sorry for everything I put you through, I'm sorry for leaving you, for cheating on you, and for hurting you in anyway. I will admit that I was scared and hell, I'm still scared. I don't like feeling like this, but I can't help it. I never wanted to see you walk away, so I did it first. I hate that I did and I was an ass, but I did. I have never felt this way about anyone, and I have fucked it up completely. I don't want to walk away today knowing that I won't ever speak to you again." I poured out to her. I watched as tears rolled down her cheeks.
"I won't let you hurt me or this child ever again… I'm sorry." She said and turned to leave. I stopped her and pulled her face to mine. I pressed my lips to hers and prayed that somewhere she still loved me.
A/N: Will Constance and Phil ever get along again?
