Chapter 27: Maddie's Confession

Sam's POV

I was really tired of being in the hospital. I was tired of having so much time to think. I was becoming my mother, this probably exactly what happened to her that made her so cold and unfeeling toward men. Freddie had cheated on me. Maddie wanted me to be more than sure that I knew it. After my third attempt to call him was blocked by her I stopped trying. I'd given Freddie too much credit. I was right all along he'd just been feeding me lines to get what he wanted. He left me and our babies alone and he hadn't once tried to call me to explain. He just left us; loud beeping pulled me from my thoughts, my blood pressure kept rising every time I thought of him. I took a couple of deep breaths to calm myself.

"Sorry kiddos mom is just an idiot. I'll relax," I whispered and I turned to my side so I could look out the window. I rub my stomach and I try really hard not to cry. I just wanted to know how Freddie could abandon us like this. It wasn't just me, I think I could've handled it if it was just me, but I would've thought he would have felt compelled to be there for the babies. "I'll be all you need and then some. I promise."

"Sam?" A familiar voice caused a sickening cringe to go down my back. I pretended to be asleep I didn't want to hear anything this tramp had to say. "Sam look, I'm sorry for everything. I know I made you think that Freddie and I were … but there's something you need to know. He loves you more than anything and I was the main reason he never got back to you. You probably know that Adam broke up with me. He said we were too different and that we had nothing in common. I convinced myself that I was doing you and Freddie a solid by breaking you up. I thought that in the long run he'd be happier with me and that I would be a great step mom for your kids. I just thought that …" I couldn't take Maddie's jabbering anymore I struggle to turn so I could face her.

"You are one crazy chick! Yeah I heard about what happened with Adam. I did, and I'm really sorry it seemed like he was really into you, but who in the hell gave you the right to interfere in Freddie and my relationship! You almost killed my kids! You almost destroyed my life." The monitor started to go off again so I had to refrain from getting too worked up, but I still had questions I needed answered. "Did you sleep with him?"

"What?"

"That night you claimed that he'd accidentally left his laptop on and it mysteriously dialed me. Did you sleep with him?" I watched as the woman looked down and shook her head.

"I was with someone else. I wasn't with him. He'd left the house and left me with his computer. I am SO sorry. I didn't want to be the cause of all of this. I really didn't." She looked tearful I looked past her towards my door. I was wondering how she'd gotten into my room in the first place.

"You should really leave Maddie," I could feel my blood beginning to boil. The last thing I needed was her presence in my room. I glanced at the clock on the wall. Max usually come about this time. I knew she was sure to get rid of this chick when she came.

"I know but I just wanted to make it right so Freddie could have the chance to see you. He came all this way and I'd come to make sure that he really didn't get the opportunity to talk to you, but I had no idea the damage I'd cause. Adam was right about me, I am self absorb." I snorted darkly; calling herself self-absorb was too nice of a word. She was psycho simple as that.

"Thank you Maddie, for explaining everything," I said dryly. "I still think that if Freddie really wanted to reach out to me he could have. Granted I'm sure you did make a point of making sure that he didn't, he's a big boy, he made the choice to be there for you and NOT me or our kids. One thing, how could you really set out to break up a family? That's some cold shit!" I asked because I was really curious, I mean I'd done some dirt in my day but what she'd done even made me shake my head.

"I felt like I was giving the twins the opportunity to have more loved ones in their lives. They would've had more grandparents, two moms, and I was sure that you'd find someone and then they'd have two dads," Maddie explain and my jaw literally dropped in disbelief.

"You know, both Freddie and I didn't have fathers in our lives going up. I really wanted more than anything for Freddie to just be there in our kids' lives, I wanted them to be able to see him on almost a daily basis. Now, I don't even want to look at him. I didn't want them to grow with parents that hated each other and right now … me kind of hate Freddie, because whether he meant to or not him but EVERYTHING ahead of being there for me including you. I don't want to see him and I don't want my kids in his life if he's going to treat them the same way. You can run back and tell your boss that." Maddie looked down at her fingers and she began to sob.

"He's not my boss anymore. He … FIRED ME! I was honest and told him everything and he fired me. Now I have to find my own way back home and that's fine … I totally understand. I just, I wanted you to know the truth too. Freddie loves you he really does … and I'm so, so sorry."

"What the HELL?" Maxine came in with her cup of coffee and a looked that said she was pissed as hell. "Did you get lost? You should not be here!"

"She knows Max, she was just leaving, weren't you Maddie?" She looked at me and nodded.

"Thank you for a least listening Sam. I hope you do right by Freddie." I rolled my eyes as the girl left my room. I held the bridge of my nose and exhaled deeply.

"So Freddie's in town?" Maxine nodded. "How long has he been here?"

"Uh, a few days, Carly and I thought it was best that we made sure you were medically stable before seeing him."

"I need to talk to him; can you call him for me? We need to figure a lot of things out … I need to know how to move on from here." Maxine tried to read my face.

"Stop trying to study me! This is important; I need to speak to my baby daddy pronto!" Max pulled out her phone and started to dial.

"I'll call him but don't do anything rash Samantha, you've waited a long time to be reunited with this man, here what has to say."

"Oh I intended to and he will most definitely hear me."
