faith406 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 Hi, so SORRY for the wait for the next chapter. I've had issues with my internet coupled along with tonsilitus and work. Thanks for baring with me and I hope you enjoy the next chapter. I'll try to be abit more frequent with updates and not keep you waiting so long. Chapter 11 Liam and Bianca The walk to the car was a silent one, Liam thought it would be best if Bianca went with him to get a change of clothes for Brax. The atmosphere in the hospital was highly charged. “Did you know that she was pregnant?” Liam asked Bianca Silently she shook her head “No, I had no idea but we’ve not been on the best of terms lately for her to have told me.” “Poor Brax having to find out like that” The rest of the car ride was silent. Walking into the Braxton house seeing all the boxes made Bianca realise that they really were taking that step with each other and leaving the bay. Liam went to get Brax a change of clothes. When he came out with a duffle bag Bianca suggested going by Leah’s to see if they could get something for Ruby to change into. Walking up to the house they could see that the police were there. “What are you guys doing here, this is a crime scene?” an officer said to Bianca and Liam “We just wanted to get some stuff for Ruby” Bianca said “Well you can’t go in there” “Please, for Charlie. Her daughter’s a mess up at the hospital; we’re just trying to do what we can to help bring some comfort.” The officer took in what Bianca said and went to speak to another officer. “Ok you can come through the back way, Forensics are done in that area. Only one of you though, this is still a crime scene” “Ok, I’ll go in. Liam I’ll be a few minutes” Bianca said as she braced herself to go into the house. As she passed by she froze as she saw the spot where Charlie must have been laying. Seeing the blood on the floor caused a sharp pain in her heart, wondering what must have been going through Charlies head as she laid there helpless. Bianca went into Ruby’s room to grab her some stuff. The house was all packed up but she managed to find a few bits in a suitcase for her. As she exited Ruby’s room she was drawn to go into Charlie’s. Seeing everything packed up ready to go made Bianca even more sad about the way things had turned out between her and Charlie. As Bianca turned to exit Charlie’s room the duffel bag on her shoulder knocked over a box. Bianca bent down to return the papers and documents into the box, just then an envelope that must have fallen out caught her eye. On the front in Charlie’s handwriting was Brax written, picking it up an inspecting it more she found it felt like a card was inside. Placing the rest of the contents into the box Bianca decided to put the envelope into her pocket and exited the room. Brax and Ruby Ruby silently followed Brax as he exited the hospital. When she got outside she found him sitting on a bench staring into space. She silently sat down beside him and took his hand in hers. They remained this way for several minutes. “Why didn’t she tell me?” Brax said to no one in particular “If it helps she didn’t tell me either. Maybe she was just waiting for the right time or something.” “Do you think she was sad about it, that maybe she didn’t tell me because she didn’t want our baby?” “Brax don’t think that, she’s been so happy like really happy. I don’t know why she didn’t tell you or me but I do know that she loves you and I believe there’s an explanation for why we didn’t know she was pregnant.” Ruby knew her mother, she had been so happy recently if she wasn’t happy about the pregnancy her mood would have shifted from the happy state she had been in. Charlie was someone who would let her emotions dictate her mood. There was no way that if she felt sad about the pregnancy they would have had the happy Charlie they had gotten recently. “How’d you feel?” Ruby asked Brax “I uh um” Brax tried to vocalise an answer, taking a deep breath he finally replied “Numb, we were going to have a baby and now it’s been taken away from us. I would have really loved our baby” Brax said with a tear falling down his face. “How can I go from being so happy to feeling like this?” Wiping the tear from Brax’s face Ruby wrapped her arms around him. “We’ll get through this, it’s going to be hard but once mums all better we’ll work as a family and get back to that happy place we were all at earlier today.” They sat in silence for a few more minutes before Brax noticed Ruby was shivering. “Come on, let’s go back inside you’re shivering” Brax said to Ruby as he pulled her up and led her into the hospital. As Brax and Ruby came into the hospital they were pushed aside as an emergency entered the building. As Brax caught sight of Jake Pirovic being wheeled into the hospital he flipped and went for him. The officers behind caught sight of this and went to tackle Brax who had just got his hand around Jakes neck and started to squeeze. “I’m gonna kill ya” Brax shouted as he looked into Jakes eyes The officers tried to get Brax of Jake but he was filled with so much rage he wouldn’t let go. “You killed my baby you bastard, she was pregnant” Brax shouted as he let his rage go on Jake “Brax get off him” The officers shouted trying to get Brax’s hands of him Finally they managed to get Brax of Jake but he went for him again. “No, you’re not gonna help that animal he deserves to die. Get off me, how can you want to help him after what he did to Charlie?” “Brax leave it” Heath said as him and Liam who had entered the hospital with Bianca rushed forward to keep Brax away from Jake. “Mr Braxton” Morag could be heard shouting “Charlie does not need you facing murder charges, trust me when I say I feel the same way as you but she needs you. So right now leave it be and walk away.” “Please” Ruby said as she placed her hand on Brax’s shoulder. Morag nodded to the paramedics to move Jake along. Holding Ruby, Brax turned to Constable Georgina Watson “What happened?” “We tried to detain him but he resisted. He brought up his gun, after today’s events I had no choice but to shoot him.” “You shoulda aimed for his heart and shot him dead” Ruby said “Ruby” Morag said surprised by the venom in Ruby’s statement. “No Morag, he tried to kill my mum. He killed her baby, I hate him. I hate him for doing this to her, if I lose her….” “Hey, don’t think like that” Casey said as he walked up to Ruby. Gently caressing her face with his hand, he pulled her into a hug. “Charlies made of tuff stuff; hey she even managed to tame a river boy. She’ll pull through this, she’s a fighter.” Smiling up at him Ruby kissed Casey and whispered thank you.
Freakie42 Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 Thanks for another great update. I wonder what is in the envelope.
JosieTash Posted December 19, 2011 Report Posted December 19, 2011 LOVED that, especially............. “Please, for Charlie.

Freakie42 Posted December 29, 2011 Report Posted December 29, 2011 Hope you have time to update soon, can't wait!
callyha Posted December 30, 2011 Report Posted December 30, 2011 Just caught up on the 8 or so chapters I've missed. This story just gets better and better! Poor Charlie having to wait so long to be found and I can't believe she got through to one person after ringing loads and all Bianca did was have a go at Charlie and then hang up! Bianca went down in my book after that, she has a lot of grovelling to do! I loved how you did a dream sequence for when Charlie was in 'limbo', and I like that it was Jack who came back to help as well as Elsie and Ross. Its a shame she lost the baby, but if she's sustained that amount of trauma and lost all that blood, its understandable. It was so heart wrenching when Charlie didn't want to leave her son; I actually welled up and my nose was stinging. Why does something like this have to happen before it makes you think of things as a silly little thing? Bianca has had a huge wake up call after realising Charlie had phoned her for help a long time before she was actually found. and, as much as I hope this means she and Charlie will be ok, there is a part of me that doesn't want Charlie to be quite so forgiving....that's my evil side coming out there hehe Keep up this standard of writing, its amazing!
