Chapter 18

“Why didn’t you tell me you were pregnant Cassie?” Ric said as Cassie climbed to her feet as her hands were clutched over her mouth.

“How did you…’

“I was cleaning out the trash and accidentally discovered this Cassie… Why didn’t you say anything? Why didn’t you tell me…’

“Your dying…Ric” Cassie yelled as Ric looked at her in shock and sadness as reality hit him once again.

“How could I tell you we were having a baby when your dying. What was I supposed to say ‘Hi baby I’m home listen I know your dying and everything but I’m pregnant!’ I mean come on Ric” Cassie yelled as the tears appeared in her eyes again.

“Cassie I’m going to be a father whether or not I’m dying, hell I could be dead in two days, two months, two years or ten years but I had, no I HAVE a right to know Cassie for god sake I love you more than…anything on this planet and I want to love this baby as well”

Silence fell between them as the tears started trickling down Cassie’s cheeks and Ric looked like he was about to break down. Looking at each other nothing was said for what felt like ten minutes but finally Ric walked toward her and cupped her cheeks.

“I love you…’ he whispered to her as she shook her head and rested her hands on his as he pulled her into a hug where she broke down in tears and rested her head in the crook of his neck.

“I love you too…’ she whispered back as she hugged him tightly, not willing to let him go for fear that she would never be able to hold him again.

Lucas sat in the diner and looked around. Not much had changed since he left, except one thing that was…the fact this his girlfriend and the love of his life had moved on and his mother was all to blame.

“Here we go!” the red haired lady said as she sat down opposite him and handed him his chocolate milkshake…Mattie’s favourite milkshake.

“Thanks Ms Bellingham I appreciate you doing this!” Lucas said as Morag took a sip from her coffee that she had ordered.

“Well to tell the truth Lucas I don’t know exactly what it is I’m supposed to be doing…so… why don’t you fill me in” Morag replied as Lucas nodded.

“Ok…’ Lucas said as he looked around, double checking to make sure no one was around that he knew or that could run back to Matilda or Jack for that matter about his conversation. After making sure it was clear he began to speak.

“I want to divorce my mother!” Lucas said as Morag’s eyes widened for a moment before she took another drink of her coffee.

“Well Lucas you do realise that in divorcing your mother you wont be entitled to anything but your trust account and anything that is already your’s don’t you?” Morag asked as Lucas nodded his head.

“I understand that!” Lucas replied as Morag nodded and reached into her brief case which was sitting on the seat next to her and pulling out some paper work.

She slowly opened her eyes and looked around the dark space. She couldn’t see anything, sitting up she hit her head with a ‘thud’ and fell back down. Feeling around her she could feel that she was in a very confined space with no light and no movement space. Suddenly starting to panic she felt around for anything she could pick up and after a minute of feeling with her hands, she found something small, picking it up she felt it with both hands she felt it in the shape of a lighter. Flicking it, it sparked but did not light so she flicked it again, this time her small space illuminated from the small fire coming form the lighter and then she noticed something else as she moved the lighter around… A cord.

Pulling it she heard a click from outside where her head lay. Martha started to panic again; she hated confined spaces, especially when she didn’t know where she was. Letting the light go out she started sobbing, her head was hurting, not only because she had hit it, but also because she had a slight hang over from the alcohol she had been drinking.

Suddenly she stopped everything she was doing when she heard two female’s voice’s coming from outside . . . where ever she was. Louder, and louder they grew until she realised they were right where she was and the next thing they were growing faint.

Shuffling over to one side she listened closely and then heard another two voices, this time a male and female and this time she recognised the voices, they were the voices of Cassie and Ric.

“I cant believe I’m going to be a dad!” Martha heard Ric say as the voices were now right where she was again and that’s when it hit her, she was in the trunk of a car. Martha started banging on the top of the trunk and screaming out Ric and Cassie’s name for help.

---------------------------

They stopped in their tracks in front of the car as they both heard a familiar voice yelling out their name, as well as hearing noises coming from inside the trunk of the car.

“Ric!” Cassie said as Ric looked at her in shock.

“That’s Martha!”

Walking along the beach, the warm breeze hitting his skin was nice. He had missed the beach since he left the Bay, but now Lucas was back and enjoyed every minute of it. Since his discussion with Morag Bellingham he had felt somewhat free, overwhelmed. Now he just had to figure out a way to get Matilda back. Hearing laugher from about a foot away he saw two people mucking around. Both blonde, reasonably tanned, one male who Lucas recognised as Aden Jefferies, the school bully, and a girl. From the back Lucas thought he knew her, stopping he kept his gaze on her, somewhat drawn to her for some reason.

Watching as Aden grabbed her around the waist, lifting her up and kissing her lips delicately and swinging her around as she giggled, her eyes closed made Lucas take a second glance at the girl. The girl Aden was kissing was now more clear to Lucas, it was Matilda.

----------------------------------------

She giggled as Aden spun her around. Closing her eyes she held onto him as they both spun around in circles, enjoying each other, enjoying the moment.

Putting her down she leant up and kissed him delicately and wrapped her arm’s around his neck and lifting herself up.

Wrapping her legs around his waist as she felt him rest his arms below her to keep her held up she looked down toward the water and saw him. He was staring at her, gob smacked. At first she didn’t recognise him but as she trailed his body up and down she soon recognised him. Her eyes widened in shock at who was standing there staring up at her in shock. It was Lucas.

“Oh my god!” she whispered to herself as she lip read as Lucas said the exact same thing as her and that’s when it hit her. She was face to face with Lucas, whom she never actually broke up with.

She was staring right back at her boyfriend.

I just realised you had updated this fic.

Poor Martha! She can't have children. But that's not a reason to start drinking. There are other ways to have children.

Yay Lucas is back. Unfortunately it's only for a few days. :(

:o OMG! Cassie's pregnant.

I hope Lucas will win Mattie back. They belong together.

Who put Martha in that trunk? :angry: Tell me Ric and Cassie are going to save her! :unsure:

Bec, Mattie has to choose Lucas.
