Some Hours Later in Hunter's Office….

Hunter walked into his office, he had just finished showing Randy around the hospital and introduced him to his new colleagues. Hunter was still annoyed at being interrupted during his talk with Pilar, he just knew Pilar and he could have made steps towards getting back together. He sat down and reached into his suit jacket for his cell, he began to hit the speed dial to call Pilar. As the call was going through, his mind flashed back to earlier with him having Pilar against the wall, he was becoming aroused as he groaned. The call went straight to voice mail. "Dammit" Hunter pressed the end button in frustration.

Sable leaned against the door frame. "Need me to help you work out that frustration?"

Hunter stood up as he adjusted himself, and then rolled his eyes. "Don't you knock?"

Sable seductively walked inside and shut the door. "Why would I do that? We have no secrets. Right?"

Hunter was slowly reaching his breaking point with Sable. "We need to talk."

Sable stood in front of him and began to play with his tie. "Mm…I don't think you want to talk…I think you need me to take care of your…Hard on for me…" She looked down to his current state of arousal.

Hunter roughly removed her hands from his tie, and then stepped away from her. "Trust me that has nothing to do with you. Like I said, we need to talk."

Sable's look went from seductive to angry. "About what…About you lying to me about a meeting you had? I know you saw her, in her office."

Hunter was too done with this, his face quickly contorted to a look of seer anger. "YOU WERE SPYING ON ME!"

Sable laughed in his face. "I keep tabs on my investments, and I have invested a lot into you. So, yes. I have eyes everywhere."

Hunter rubbed his hand over his head. He couldn't believe her. "And I have paid dearly for it…" Hunter paused wanting to pick the correct words to use. "We talked about this…This was supposed to be a couple of times and that was it…Where is all this clinginess coming from?"

Sable took off her suit jacket, to expose her pink lace camisole, which dipped dangerously close to her nipples. She then hopped up on his desk to face him. "Agreements change…I can do so much more for you…Hunter, I can guarantee you becoming CEO of this hospital someday, all you need to do is forget about that twit of ex-wife of yours."

That did it, Hunter was now full blown angry. "THE DEAL NEVER INCLUDED ME LEAVING MY WIFE...I WILL NEVER FORGET ABOUT HER…THERE WILL NEVER BE A YOU AND ME…AND I HAVE TOLD YOU NUMEROUS TIMES TO LEAVE HER OUT OF THIS... I'M WARNING YOU TO NEVER BAD MOUTH HER AGAIN! DO I MAKE MYSELF CLEAR!"

Sable smirked. "You just need a little more time to get used to it…I am a great fit for you. I can give you more than just Chief of Staff of the hospital, I can make sure you become CEO of the hospital, introduce you to influential people in the science world, you can become a board member with the Sports Legacy Institute, and that is only the beginning honey."

Hunter closed his eyes before he spoke. "Sable, I don't want to be with you like that, you are a smart business woman and I respect that, and I appreciate everything you have done for me, but I am getting my wife back, and you will have to accept that!"

"Too bad, because my father would be devastated to know that you used me to get what you wanted…And he will be very angry after I tell him what else you did." Sable actually has taken over her father's spot on the board of directors while he recovers from heart surgery. "Good for the hospital that Dr. Shepard is still here."

Hunter furrowed his brow. "That son of bitch will not take my spot!"

Sable batted her eye lashes. "I don't want that, but you are the youngest Chief of Staff this hospital has ever had, I had to do a lot of convincing to get you this spot, but if daddy knows you manipulated me, well…he will be fit to be tied and want to console me by appointing his original choice, and that was Dr. Shepard….Why else did daddy hire him?"

Hunter was outraged. He performed the surgery that saved her father's life. "I MANIPULATED YOU…? THAT IS RICH…YOU WERE ALL OVER ME FROM DAY ONE, YOU COULDN'T WAIT TO GET INTO BED WITH ME…! WE FUCKED EACH OTHER…END OF STORY!"

"Yeah, so what, once I promised you this job, you fucked me willing…And something very special happened…" Sable feeling desperate to hold onto Hunter, she forced tears to spring to her eyes. "We…We…Made a baby, Hunter!"

All the color drained from Hunter's face. "What did you just say?"

Sable hopped down and held her stomach. "We made a child together. Hunter you are such a good father, and now you will have another child, a great child."

Hunter stumbled backwards to find his chair to sit down. "No…No…That can't be possible…I used condoms…"

Sable took Hunter's limp hand and held it to her stomach. "Honey, sometimes they don't work. You just need time to get used to it. Once we get married and the baby comes, you will be happy."

Hunter grabbed his hand away from her stomach, and then rubbed the back of his head. "Married? I don't love you…Why can't you get that through your head…! If you are pregnant, that baby can't be mine. I don't believe it…I'm not an idiot…I was very careful to make sure that didn't happen!"

Sable sat on his lap. "It is yours. Why would I lie about such a special gift?"

Hunter carefully removed her from his lap. "I'm not convinced, I will need to see proof after the baby is born." Hunter walked to his large window, he was furious with himself, he then stared across the parking lot. "I have a meeting coming up. Can you leave me alone?"

Sable smirked while his back was turned. "Of honey, I know you are a busy man now. Remember you have a fitting for your tux, the Gala celebrating your new position is only days away." She put on her jacket and started to leave, but suddenly turned around. "Oh, I forgot to tell you, I have sent a Gala invitation to Pilar. We need her kind to be present and supporting this monumental event."

Hunter felt the walls closing in on him. "Why the fuck would you do that?"

"Aw Honey, she will have to get use to us, and the baby. As I said her kind is needed for this Gala, and it is what is best for business, we want to show people this is behind all us, and we are a proud family here at Massachusetts General."

Hunter shook his head in disgust. "You want her there to fuck with her and because she is of Latin decent. When did you turn into such a hateful bitch?"

Sable smiled. "Your right, it is best for the image of the hospital. We need to show the public we have a diverse staff. I have to go for my dress fitting. See you tonight." Sable blew a kiss to him as she walked out."

Hunter shoved all of his files across his desk to the floor as she walked out. "You fucking little bitch!"

He was about to turn his desk over as Shawn walked in. "Easy there." Shawn walked all the way inside and stood in front of Hunter to get his attention.

Hunter was in a state of outrage and frustration, his breathing was becoming shallow and quick. Shawn grabbed his face. "Calm down, you are starting to hyperventilate."

Hunter stared into Shawn eyes, and felt his knees buckle. "What have I done, Shawn?"

Shawn walked Hunter to the couch. "Okay buddy, whatever it is we can fix. You need to calm down and tell me what the hell is going on?"

Shawn forced Hunter to undo his tie and put his head between his legs to regain his normal breathing, after several minutes Hunter was able to lift his head up. "Okay Hunt, what is going on?"

Hunter's eyes were moist, he would only reveal this side of himself to Shawn. "You were right, she is crazy."

Shawn has feared this day would come, but he wasn't prepare for what Hunter was about to say. "Just tell me, Hunt."

"SHE IS PREGNANT…! HOW THE FUCK CAN THIS BE HAPPENING?"

Shawn's mouth practically fell to the floor. "What?"

Hunter jumped up from the couch. "PREGNANT, SHAWN…! DO I NEED TO DRAW A FUCKING PICTURE?"

Shawn remained calm, he knew yelling at Hunter is pointless. He and Hunter were like brothers from a different mother so to say. They worked together since Hunter started at the hospital, almost twelve years ago. "Hunt, you didn't cover it up?"

"ARE YOU TRYING TO MAKE ME MORE PISSED OFF? OF COURSE I USED A DAMN CONDOM!"

Shawn breathed heavily. "Are you sure she is actually pregnant? And, if she is, are you sure it belongs to you?"

"She just told me, Shawn. But, I did tell her I need proof of paternity. This is a fucking nightmare that has no ending, she is inviting Pilar to my celebration Gala." Hunter began to pace from panic.

Shawn stood in front of Hunter, he knew it was time for tough love. "Hunt, I told you this was a bad idea, this chick is crazy and she is obsessed with you. Was this fancy job and fancy office worth it? You are going to have to face facts…You fucked up….And you may not be able to fix it."

"DON'T SAY THAT! I JUST NEED TIME ALONE WITH PILAR, BEFORE THE BABY IS BORN…I WON'T GIVE UP ON MY FAMILY!"

Shawn hated to see his friend this way, but he also knew Hunter was to blame. "If you really want to have a second chance with Pilar, you need to tell her about the baby. Don't let her find out from cray-cray Sable….Think Hunt, this crazy wacko will have something else over your head…The truth is the only way to go."

Hunter looked into Shawn's eyes again, almost like a scared child. "You know I can't do that…Not after Pilar lost our baby…Shawn…She was devastated, we were just about to try again to have another child, but then all this shit about Sable blew up."

Shawn knew this was a bad idea. "How will you pull this off? Sable follows you all around the hospital, Pilar will notice when the baby starts to grow."

Hunter started the nervous pace again. "I will have to make sure that they don't run into each other. I have no choice. I-I…Have to make up with Pilar first. I know what I'm doing."

Shawn shook his head. "NO! That is how you got jammed up to begin with…SECRETS!"

"Don't you think I know that? Shawn, please just help me get back my life…my wife and my kids…Please…" Hunter has never begged to Shawn, but he was running out of options and time.

Shawn didn't like it, but he agreed. He too was starting to feel heat from his own wife for siding with Hunter. "Okay Hunt, but I have to consider my wife and kids. Torrie and Pilar are friends, and things are dicey when it comes to you and Pilar."

Hunter had a look of relief. "Thank you, I promise I will fix this...Life without Pilar is not an option..."

Meanwhile Pilar's office…

Pilar sat at her desk, but was getting no work done. She kept starring at the wall where her and Hunter were at just hours ago. "Focus Pilar…Stop thinking about him." She scolded her own self.

Randy decided to stop by Pilar's office to say good bye, he walked inside of her office and stared at her. "You can talk to me, instead of talking to yourself."

Pilar shook her head and smiled at Randy. "What I have to say is not that interesting. What are you doing here?"

Randy walked behind her and started to massage her shoulders, he did that after putting an envelope in front of her. "Your nurse said HR dropped this off for you." Randy's hands massaged very deeply into her tense shoulders.

Pilar exhaled as she opened the envelope. "YOU GOT TO BE FRINGING KIDDING ME!"

Randy leaned over her shoulder and read the Gala invitation. He felt this was odd. "I got one too, from Hunter. I know you two are…divorced…But I think you should go, you could be my plus one."

Pilar laughed, she could never get Hunter to watch Sex in the City. "I can't believe Hunter would do this to me, the ultimate humiliation of the ex-wife."

Randy got closer to her ear, his breath was hot on her earlobe. "I don't think he meant any harm by it, but you could have fun with it. You know…Showing up with the new handsome surgeon, we would make tongues wag with envy."

Pilar tried to get space away from Randy's increasing good neck massage, she hasn't felt this in months, and it felt really nice. "I don't know. Who will watch the kids?" She was trying to think of any excuse to make him give up on the idea of asking her out.

Randy swung her office chair around and placed both of his hands on the arms of the chair. He stared sexily into her eyes. "You can get Nicole to watch them. I really don't want to walk in alone, we can catch up and I can make you feel like a princess for the night."

Pilar arched her brow. "I am not some naïve nurse that is going to swoon into your arms, but I will give you credit for being somewhat smooth."

Randy came inches to her lips. "That is what I like about you, honest and sexy at the same time. Come on, it is only a couple of hours and a room full of chaperones. I will be a complete gentleman."

Pilar stood up and walked to the door, as she held it opened. "I will think about it. I have work to do."

Randy lifted her hand and kissed it. "That is all I can ask for. I will see you tomorrow." Randy slowly walked out, he just couldn't help it. He has always had a thing for Pilar, but out of respect for Hunter, he never pursued it. He figured she is divorced now and Hunter will just have to learn to accept it.

Pilar closed the door and leaned against. She really wasn't interested in dating, but then she got mad. How could Hunter just think she would just show up for him? Maybe she needed to set things straight once and for all, maybe she should just accept Randy's invitation.

She went back to her desk and called the one person who knew her and has been with her every miserable step of the way through this divorce, Nikki. She twirled the telephone cord as she waited for Nikki to answer.

"Hello sis." Nikki answered before Pilar announced herself.

"I need to talk…Can you stop by the house later?" Pilar had a mixture of hurt and angry in her voice.

"What did that asshole do now? I swear if he wasn't so fringing big, I would punch him." Nikki meant it, she was at her last nerve with Hunter.

"He sent me an invitation to his celebration Gala."

"Go and wear something slinky and sexy to show him what he lost. That will show him!"

"Funny you should say that, Randy arrived today and he asked me to go with him…"

Nikki cut her off. "You better go with him. He is cute, and has a decent bank account."

Pilar frowned. "Okay, you are not helping. I told you I don't want to date, especially after what happened between Hunter and I this morning."

"Fuck Lars…Did you have sex with him? You know what, don't answer me now, wait until later, when I can see your eyes."

Pilar hated when Nikki would stare her down, she could never lie to her. "Fine, come over around 8:00, when the kids are down."

Nikki agreed and hung up. She knew she had work to do, she was going to track down Randy and make sure he takes her sister to that Gala. She was tired of Hunter and this may be the perfect person to stop him. Or at least she hopes so.
