Chapter One

Miguel entered Kay’s room to find her staring into space. "Kay." He whispered softly as she gently moved her head. "How you feeling?"
She forced a smile as he walked over to her, taking her small weak hand into his larger one. "I want to go home." She sighed resting her head against the pillow. "But I’m afraid mom doesn’t want me there."
Miguel shook his head, "Don’t talk like that."
"How are you doing Miggs?" She asked her words kind and caring.
"It hurts doesn’t it?" He frowned. "We thought we were too young for a child, and now, I want my baby back."
Kay felt tears form in her eyes again. "I’m so sorry Miguel, I should have watched the road, I mean I should have been driving slower, I’m just so sorry." She cried.
"Kay this isn’t your fault, you’ve got to stop thinking like that."
"It is my fault Miggs." Kay cried. "I ruined our lives."
"No baby, don’t say that." Miguel tried to soothe, "We’re going to be okay, its just going to take time."
"Time?" Kay cried. "I lost my baby, time isn’t going to change that."
"Kay, we’ve got a long life ahead of us, I know its going to be hard, but we are going to be okay, we’re going to raise a family together just like we planned. "
Kay felt her heart fall as she lowered her head and pulled her blanket closer to her. "Miguel, I can’t talk about this right now."
"Then we’ll talk about the wedding." He said smiling. " That is if you still want to marry me of course." He said touching her hand.
"Of course I do Miguel." She smiled softly, "That’s all I’ve ever wanted."
"Then you need to start eating, get back your strength."
"I’m not hungry." She frowned. "I don’t want food Miguel."
"Kay, I don’t know how to help you." Miguel frowned.
"You can’t help me." She said wiping her tears. "No one can."

Reese fell back on his bed with a large thud. Closing his eyes he could still see it all so plain.

"Kay I’m not sure how to tell you this." Dr. Russell frowned.
"There can’t be more." Kay cried out from the bed. "I just lost my baby, please tell me there’s not more."
"Kay, we’ve ran some test on you, and sweetheart, the damage you suffered." The doctor said slowly.
"Just say it!" Kay almost yelled. "What am I dying now? Because if I am, good!"
"No you’re not dying Sweetheart, but there is a chance that you can no longer have children."
Kay’s face went white at Eve’s words. "What?" She whispered.
"Sweetie I’m sorry."
"Chance? That means your not sure right?" Kay questioned.
"Kay, I’m almost certain, I won’t ever say I know for a fact, but it doesn’t look good." Eve frowned. "I don’t want to go into the details with you right now, but you should tell Miguel."
"Can’t have kids?" She swallowed. "My baby is gone, and I can’t have another one?"
"I’m sorry." Eve said wiping her own tears."
"Get out." Kay said looking up at Eve. "I want to be alone."
Reese felt his heart sink, he hadn’t meant to listen, but the door was slightly open, and every word spoken had came out loud and clear. He watched Dr. Russell walk out of the room and slowly he entered.
"Kay." He whispered from the door. "Kay I heard." He told he as her head moved to look at him.
"How?" She whimpered.
"I was listening." Reese frowned. " I didn’t mean to hear, honest."
"I want to die Reese." She cried out as he walked over to her.
"No, no you don’t Kay." He moved to the bed sitting down beside her he touched her hand as her eyes stared up to him tears gushing from them. So young and so confused as she spoke. "Why me?" She whispered.
"I don’t know."
"My baby is gone, and now I know I won’t ever be a mother." She sobbed.
"Dr.Russell said she wasn’t totally sure Kay."
"But I am." Kay said taking a breath. "Because this is my life, and nothing good happens in my life."
"Oh Kay." Reese spoke touching her face. "I’m so sorry."
"Don’t feel sorry for me." She said looking up at him. "Don’t ever do that." Her words came out angry. "I don’t need you looking at me like that Reese, with that look of pity."
"Kay, I wasn’t." He told her.
"I just want to wake back up Reese, I want it all to be a dream." She said raising her voice "Why can’t it be a dream!"
He suddenly put his arm around her and she fell onto his chest, tears falling as she let out a scream, every emotion she had coming out as he held on to her.

"This is so unfair." He sighed looking up at his ceiling. "She deserves so much more than this."
"You’re in love with her." A soft voice sighed from his door, sitting up on the bed Reese frowned. "Charity, what are you doing here?"
"Your mom let me in, I just wanted to come see how you were, I never expected this." She said walking over to him.
"What are you talking about?"
"Well I assume from the look on your face you’ve been to see Kay, and you just said she deserves more than this. Reese I’m not a fool, you’re still in love with Kay, even now after she hurt you."
"Kay is hurting right now and she needs people to show her that they care." Reese said watching as Charity dropped her head.
"She has Miguel and that’s the only person she wants."
"No Charity, she wants her family as well, and she needs them. She also needs friends to help her."
"I’m not going to say Kay brought this on herself Reese, but she did do a lot of underhanded things. She wanted Miguel, and she went after him, slept with him and took him from me."
Reese looked up at Charity, "She didn’t force him to propose to her."
"She was carrying his child."
"People raise children all the time without getting married, and Miguel wasn’t drunk when he slept with her, he knew what he was doing Charity, don’t place all the blame on Kay."
"She tricked him." Charity insisted.
"You have a right to be angry, but right now Kay just needs people to show her they care, her baby is gone Charity, and its killing her."
"How’s Miguel?" Charity said ignoring Reese.
"He’s hurting as well, it was his child too."
"And are they still getting married?" Charity questioned.
Reese frowned. "Yes, Miguel isn’t going to leave her Charity, not after this."
"He still loves me Reese, you know it and I know it."
"And do you love him?" Reese quizzed. "After what he did to you?"
She sat down on the bed with Reese, turning to look at him, "How can I not?"

"She’s had her bottle and just woke up from her nap." Theresa said picking up her daughter to look at the woman beside her. "Tell Ethan, I expect to have her earlier Friday since you’re here three hours early."
Gwen Bennett frowned. "You’ll have to take that up with Ethan."
"Then you can tell Ethan to expect a call from me tonight." Theresa bitterly spoke.
"Fine." Gwen said looking at Breanna.
"Mommy loves you." Theresa told the baby kissing her soft cheek.
"You know we’re not trying to hurt you." Gwen said suddenly.
Theresa looked up at her. "You could have fooled me."
"Theresa, we have to get along, for Breanna."
Theresa handed Gwen her child, "She might still be sleepy, her nap was very short today."
"I’m sure she’ll go to sleep in the car." Gwen said turning to leave.
"Bye baby." Theresa called out as Gwen walked out the door. "I’ll miss you." She said as the door shut.

Whitney Russell looked at Chad, his eyes glued to his music equipment. "Are you mad at me?" She finally questioned.
"Should I be?" He asked looking up at her.
"No. But you’re not talking." She said with a sigh.
"I have a lot on my mind, do you want to try this song today or wait until tomorrow?" He asked.
"Whatever, it doesn’t matter to me." Whitney said sitting down next to him. "But I wished you tell me what’s going on.
Chad turned and looked at Whitney, "Did you tell Theresa she deserved to loose her baby?"
A shocked look came to Whitney’s face. "No! Of course not."
"Did you tell her anything close to that?"
"Have you been talking to Theresa?" Whitney asked.
"Just answer me Whit, did you tell her something to make her think that?"
Whitney frowned. "I told her that I warned her what lies could do, but I never meant it like that Chad, honest."
"Whitney, She sees her little girl two days a week, and to have her best friend say something like that, girl why did you do that?" He asked.
"I don’t know Chad, I didn’t mean anything bad by it. But I have warned her Chad, I told her what lies do, and I told her not to go after the Crane money, but she never listens."
"She may not listen Whit, but you need to think before you speak." Chad said standing up. "I think we need to take a break today." He said walking out of the music studio.
"Chad, wait!" Whitney called out, but Chad had already walked out.
