A lot can change in two years. Are Tommy and Scarlett still going strong? Has Greta caused a strain on their relationship? What will Scarlett think of May Carleton and Jessie Eden? What new enemies will show up and try to take down the Shelby's now...
Tommy and Scarlett woke up late the next day. Right as she woke up she ran to the bathroom and threw up. Tommy came in there right as she was brushing her teeth. She put her free hand to her head and they made eye contact in the mirror. "The alcohol." She said. "You'll feel worse if you don't eat anything." "I can't eat anything." He squinted his eyes at her and then walked out. She nodded. "Good talk." She got back in bed because she didn't feel good. Tommy came back up later with a breakfast tray. He remembered the morning of the fundraiser where she was shot, she had really bad morning sickness. He brought the same breakfast up and set it in front of her. "This was the only thing you could eat when you had morning sickness." "But I'm not pregnant." "Just try it." "Okay." She laughed at his persistency. It was just fresh fruit and waffles, but for some reason it always worked for her. They both ate breakfast and Scarlett actually finished it without getting sick. She looked at him. "How did you remember?" "I told you...I pay attention." He said and then kissed her. "Will you go somewhere with me in an hour or so?" He asked. She smiled and put her hand on the back of his neck. "Tommy, I would go anywhere with you." "Great...keep that in mind when we get there." She gave him a weird look and he quickly kissed her and then stood up. "Get dressed." He said as he walked in the bathroom. Scarlett got up and got dressed for the day.

She took Tommy's arm as they walked downstairs. Francis stopped them before they left. "Mr. Shelby, your brother is on the phone for you." "Tell him I will call him back in a few hours and that I'm doing something important." "It sounded urgent." Francis said. "If it's that urgent...he'll find me." Tommy said and then pulled Scarlett out the door. They got in the car and started driving. "Tommy, that sounded serious." "Whatever problem it is...it'll still be here when we get back." She gave him a confused look and then they pulled up somewhere they've never been after driving for a while. "What is this?" She asked. "A private doctors office." "Tommy, I told you. It's hard enough to hear you have cancer once, but hearing it again..." "This is the only doctor I trust. If she confirms it, then so be it, but I have this feeling, Scar." She looked at him and knew this was very important to him. "Okay." He smiled and then kissed her. Tommy quickly got out and opened her car door like always. They walked in and got to a private room where Julia was waiting. She hugged Scarlett. Tommy waited outside while Julia checked Scarlett out and performed a bunch of tests. She asked her a ton of questions. "When was the first day of your last period?" Scarlett made a face because she couldn't remember. "Is it still irregular, Scarlett?" "Yes, ever since I had Myles...I could have it for two weeks and then not have it for two months. It's just random, so missing one is normal for me." Julia nodded and continued. She left to run tests, while Scarlett got dressed. Tommy came in and looked at her. "Tommy, just don't get your hopes up, okay? I don't want this to break your heart again." He nodded and then she sat back on the table as he stood next to her. Julia came in a while later with a folder. "What doctor told you that you had cancer?" "Just one at the hospital." Tommy said. Julia smiled. "Well they should fire him...because you do not have cancer." Tommy smiled and Scarlett looked shocked. "What?" She asked. Julia handed them the folder and they read it. "You don't even have the cancer gene." "That's the only thing I can thank my mother for." Scarlett said as she read the papers. "Your numbers are great, Scarlett. You are as healthy as a pregnant woman should be." Julia said. Tommy and Scarlett's heads shot up. "It's not your irregular period. It's because you're pregnant, Scarlett. You're almost 12 weeks along." Scarlett had tears in her eyes because she just couldn't believe any of this. "But I've been losing weight." "You struggled with morning sickness throughout the whole pregnancy with Myles. You couldn't eat without getting sick until you found the right foods. You didn't know you were pregnant, so you haven't been eating those foods that help. Now you know." She smiled. "So I'm really okay?" Scarlett asked. "Yes, I'd say you're more than okay." Scarlett smiled as a tear fell down her face. Tommy grabbed her hand. "I'll let you two have a minute." "Thank you so much, Julia." Tommy said. She smiled and then walked out. Tommy stood in front of Scarlett. "I don't have cancer....I'm not dying." She stood up and Tommy hugged her. "You're not dying." He whispered. He pulled away and wiped a tear off her cheek and then put his hand on her stomach. "We're having another baby." He smiled. She smiled and then they hugged again, but Tommy spun her around this time. The two walked out hand in hand and as happy as could be. "A boy or a girl?" Scarlett asked. "Boy. Myles needs a brother. It'll make him tough." "What about a sister for Bella?" He stopped in front of her and held both of her hands. "Then I guess we will have to have more." He said and then kissed her. He opened the car door and looked at her standing there. She walked his way. "Says the one not carrying them for nine months and then going through labor." She joked as she got in the car. He got in and knew it was the perfect chance for him to joke with her. "Hey, I let you squeeze my hand during labor. You almost broke it last time." "Yes, your right hand will be super important when I leave you for being insensitive." He raised his eyebrows and gave a little laugh. Tommy shook his head and put his arm around her waist and his hand on her stomach. "I love you, Scarlett Jade." He smiled. "I love you too, but just a little less after that joke." She laughed. He kissed her cheek and they drove to the office to tell everyone. Tommy had his arms around her waist and his hands on her stomach as they walked in. They were both smiling as they talked to each other and everyone noticed how happy they were. Arthur quickly walked up. "Linda and I need to tell you important information right now, Tommy." "We have an important announcement to make first." He said. "But Tom." Arthur tried. "In a minute, Arthur." Tommy said. He got everyone's attention and made the announcement. Ada ran over and hugged Scarlett. "Our babies will be best friends!" Ada said. "You're pregnant too?!" "We found out this morning. We were going to tell everyone tonight, but this is perfect!" Ada squealed. "I'm going to be a grandpa!" Aberama said as he hugged his son. Everyone congratulated Ada and Bonnie. Polly walked over and looked at Scarlett. "So you're healthy?" "Yes. No cancer. I don't even have the gene for it." Polly smiled and hugged her. "Thank God." Polly mumbled. "Wait, why would that doctor tell you, you had cancer though?" Isaiah asked. "I don't know. We really haven't thought about that because we've been so excited." Scarlett said. "Michael and Gina paid the doctor off." Arthur blurted out. Everyone got silent as they looked at him. "What?" Tommy said. "No, Michael wouldn't do that." Polly said. "Polly, you know I never lie. We heard them talking about paying a doctor off and then taking everything over when Scarlett dies." Linda said. "So they paid the doctor to tell me I had cancer and then they were going to kill me and get away with it because everyone would think that I died from the cancer?" Scarlett said. Arthur nodded. Tommy shook his head in disbelief. "Where are they?" Scarlett asked in a low tone. "They are supposed to be coming in later." Arthur said. "I want them now." Scarlett said as she pulled out her gun. "We don't know for a fact that Michael was in on it. It could've all been Gina." Polly said. "We heard him admit it, Pol." Arthur said. "I want him to say it to me. I'll know if he's lying." Scarlett was furious. She shook her head and slammed Tommy's office door. "Bring the doctor to me." Tommy ordered. "Gladly." Isaiah said. Him, Aberama, and Arthur went. Tommy walked into his office and stopped Scarlett from pacing. She had her hands to her face and Tommy pulled them away. "They were behind it all. We believed this for two months...we even made funeral arrangements. They were going to kill me." "We told Bella...we told Bella I was dying." She said as she looked away. That hit Tommy hard. He held her face and they made eye contact. "They will get what they deserve. Scar, I promise you." She nodded and he hugged her. The boy's came back with the doctor and they had him in the main room. The boys already beat him up. The doctor saw Tommy walking towards him and he caved. "They paid me to do it. They paid me to tell you you had cancer. They planned on poisoning you in a few months. No one would suspect them because of the fake cancer diagnosis." He blurted out in hope the truth would save his life. "How do you know they were going to poison her?" Polly asked. "Because I provided them the poison." "And what did these two look like?" Tommy questioned. "She's short, American, blonde hair and he's British with light brown hair. They were both young. Uh...newly weds they said." "Is she pregnant?" Scarlett asked. "No. They paid me to fake that paperwork too." Tommy looked at Polly and then he turned back to the doctor and shot him in the head. Finally Michael and Gina arrived. "Are you ready to give up your company?" Gina smirked. Everyone was sitting at the table. Tommy got up and spun a chair around. The two saw the dead doctor. Their eyes went wide and Michael turned around, but Isaiah stopped him. "You have something you'd like to tell us, Michael?" Tommy asked. "I'm sorry mom." Michael said. She looked at him. "Admit what you did." He took a deep breath and finally admitted it. Polly put her hand over her mouth and Scarlett walked over beside Tommy. She looked at Michael. "You were in on it...you betrayed us..." "Scarlett, I'm sorry." "We told Bella......she thinks I'm dying." Michael looked down because he could hear the hurt in her voice. "Well you are dying." Gina said as she pointed a gun at Scarlett. Scarlett smirked at the gun in her face and then put one hand on the gun and the other on Gina's wrist. She pushed the gun away from her and then kicked Gina. Gina stumbled back and let go of the gun. Scarlett bent Gina's arm behind her back as far as it could go and then slammed her into the wall. "I'm pregnant." Gina screamed. "No you're not." Scarlett turned Gina around to face her. She hit her and then smirked as she back away from her. "Plan B never works." "Michael do something!" Gina yelled. "Say hey to your family for me." Scarlett smirked. Scarlett pulled the trigger and she didn't miss. She hit Gina right between the eyes. Michael had wide eyes and then Tommy hit him. He grabbed him by the throat and put a gun to his head as Michael looked like he accepted his fate. "Thomas, that's my son." Polly yelled. "What he did is unforgivable." He said as he tightened his grip. Tommy cocked the gun and Michael closed his eyes. A gun went off and everyone yelled.
