Chapter 55: Chapter 55

"What do you think you are doing? Samantha yelled, trying to fight him in the car, but he was untouched by her screams, he was quiet, and didn't say anything to her, until they finally got to his house, in the city.

He opened the door and asked her to come out, but she refused.

Take me back, else I will scream". She threatened. He didn't seem to have the time to argue with her, so he pulls her out, and then, carried her in a bridal style inside his room, gently placing her on the bed, but she got up immediately.

"Have you lost your mind? She asked, but the door was already locked against her, else, she would have tried leaving the house.

Are you kidnapping me? She asked, but Craig only sat down, looking down at his shaking palm. He was angry, he didn't know how to act, but he had streams of emotions, running through him.

"Is Maxwell, the father of the baby you are carrying? He asked her gently, without looking up at her. She feared that he might have found out somehow, that he is the father, but she wasn't ready to just give in like that, so she lied.

"Did you bring me all the way here, just to ask me that? She asked, but he didn't answer her, and just buried his face down, waiting for her to just speak, he was loosing his cool.

You know he is responsible, so now that you have your answer, I have to go back home. Gush! I cannot believe you brought me all the way here, just to ask me about the father of my baby". She says, but Craig moved swiftly, his eyes looking all red, as if he is about to turn to a vampire, he looked vicious and was kind of scary to her, then he angrily pushed her to the bed, and climbed on her.

"I have the answer to my question, so if you don't start talking now, I will show you, the other part of me". That was a threat, he could see that she looked really scared, but he wasn't ready to try and sweet talk her, into giving him the answer he seeks, and if she is really carrying his child, he would then, know what to do.

I am going to ask you again, for the very last time. Who is the father of the baby you are carrying? He yelled, that the house, felt like it was shaking, especially with the rain and thunderstorm, his voice echoed through the silence of the room. Samantha shook out of fear, since she haven't seen him like that before, she started crying, which was his weakness, he hates seeing her cry, and though he didn't want to show her that he cares about her tears, he couldn't allow her cry for long, so he got up from her, and went back to his seat, giving her time to get a hold of herself, she touched her tummy, that had suddenly began aching.

"What do you want with the father of my baby, you hurt me, you should let me be. I don't want you or your money, I want to be alone". Craig was once again, furious, that he screamed at her.

"Shut up Sam! I made a fucking mistake, and I apologized already, but you just choose to make me suffer every other minute of the time". He says in pain, then calmed down, moved close to her, and caressed her hair, but she still looked scared.

I love you Sam, if the child is mine, just tell me already. I know the baby isn't Maxwell's baby, because I met with him and he told me the child isn't his". He was about to speak, when she slapped him on the cheek.

"Why did you go to him? She questioned. Craig didn't even act like he received a slap from her, he just moved even closer to her, pining her to the door, leaving no inch between them.

"I didn't go to him Sam, you should know me better than that". He says, then he went ahead to explain to her, how everything happened, from the flower shop, and how he had thought the flower was for her, a d finally, meeting him again at the bar. Hearing all he said, she felt guilty and ashamed, making her look down at all the lies she told, just to cover the identity of the child.

Do you think, hiding his identity will change anything? she looked away, while he pulls her face back, so that she looks at him.

Look into my eyes Sam, and tell me the truth. Swear by the baby, and tell me to my face, that I am not the father of this baby. I can feel it in my heart and my soul, that this child is mine, please tell me it is mine". He begged, touching her lips, and forming circles around it. She grabbed her jacket, so that she covers her almost naked form, The downpour outside could be heard clearly, making the thunderstorm loud. When she still said nothing, he screamed at her.

Answer me already Sam! And she screamed back with a response, for she couldn't keep it anymore.

"Yes, yes it is. you.... are the father". Hearing it from her, pushed him backwards to the opposite side of the wall, he punched the wall, hurting the back of his palm, then he turned to face her again and asked calmly, as if he wasn't expecting that answer.

"You are carrying my baby, and you kept it away from me? He asked with a broken voice. And you have been going to work, and stressing? You are carrying an apple, an Anderson and you have been endangering yourself by travelling when you shouldn't? She said nothing, silence eludes them, before he spoke up, with a calmer voice.

When did you find out?

"The day I left the house, the doctor told me, and I couldn't stay. I mean, you hurt me, and I am pregnant, I felt used. You took advantage of my depressed state, you had sex with me, without my permission". He had to defend himself.

"You begged me to, I didn't want to, but you begged me to, and that was my first time....

She looked up at him shocked.

"What? she asked

"Yes I know how that sounds, but I have loved you from the first time, that I never allowed any woman into my life. I wanted you, and only you, so when you asked for it, I thought.... this is it, and I allowed all my emotions and wants to get a better part of me, but I am not sorry. I did it, out of love I love you, and I know you love me too". He says with a concerned eye.

"I cannot be with you Craig. This was the same thing I was accused of years ago, what do you think the world would say? They will refer to all that happened as being part of the presence. They would tarnish my image all the more".

"I cannot believe you care about what the world would say? The world would always have something to say, but we have each other that should matter, unless you tell me right now, that you don't love me. If you can tell me that you don't love me, I promise, I will let you go. So just tell me right now". She couldn't say it, that would be lying to herself, her silence gladden his heart, that he grabbed her lips and enveloped it with his in a passionate kiss.
