One Kiss [English]

Chapter 12

A/N Last chapter, hope you enjoyed the fanfiction💚.

"Luke, I'm really running out of time." he said as he quickly gathered his things in the dressing room. "I have to go see Claire."

"She won't be there, Tom," Luke replied and he stopped.

"What do you mean?" -he was silent and Tom could see in his posture that something was wrong- "What did you do?"

"I did what had to be done," he said, glaring at him. "I couldn't let you throw away everything we worked so long for."

"What did you do!!!" he shouted loudly.

"I told her you wanted her gone." -Tom stepped toward him- "I gave her enough money so the kid wouldn't be your problem anymore. You would have risked everything for some cheap whore-" He interrupted him as he punched him hard in the face and grabbed him by his shirt. Tom pushed him against the wall; Luke's nose was bleeding. Finally he let him go and Luke wiped the blood away.

He turned away from him. "Get out of here, and if you ever get under my eyes again, a broken wet one will be harmless."

"Really? You're going to throw it all down for her?" he asked Tom.

"Get out!" he yelled, making him wince before quickly leaving.

Five months later...

Claire smiled slightly as she watched her niece and nephew run through the garden while stroking her round belly. "Not so fast kids!" her brother called as he stepped out of the house. He walked through the grass to her and sat next to her on the bench. "How is my nephew today?"

"He's pretty bright today, kicking all the time," she laughed lightly, but it wasn't a genuine smile, though she tried to make them think she was fine. "He must get that from his father." Over the past few months, Tom had been quiet in the media and she kept wondering how he was doing. Was he even thinking about her and the unborn baby? But why should he? Tom didn't want her. Why couldn't she forget him?

"Are you going to tell me about the reason you suddenly broke up and you're here? Not that it's not nice having my little sister here?" he asked, but she shook her head and he sighed. "Alright, but if he just leaves a pregnant woman, he's a complete asshole and doesn't deserve you." She laughed a little and looked to his wife.

"Andrew? There's a man outside our door and he wants to see Claire." She stiffened at her words and her brother stood up. He walked with long strides to the front door and she went after him when she managed to get up. Tom stood in the doorway, looking terrible, as if he hadn't slept in months.

"Is Claire here?" asked Tom.

"Are you the asshole?" he asked angrily, blocking his door.

"Please, I really need to talk to her," he asked, looking over his shoulder at her.

"Andrew it's okay," Claire said and he reluctantly nodded before leaving. Tom's gaze went to her stomach and he gasped. "What do you want Tom? Are you suddenly interested in me and the baby."

He looked her in the eye again and she looked away. "I never stopped being interested in you." Her eyes filled with tears.

"No? Then why did you send us away?" Her voice broke.

"I didn't; Luke did all this without my knowledge." -He stepped toward her. She clutched her stomach-"There's nothing I want more than the two of you." -Tom pulled her into his arms and rested his chin on her head-"Come home, both of you." She leaned away from him.

"Do you really want this?" she asked him.

"There's nothing I want more." He leaned down and kissed her gently. His hands were on her belly when the baby suddenly started kicking; he looked down in amazement.

"Our son is quite bright today."

"A son? We're having a boy?" he asked, and she nodded enthusiastically before he kissed her passionately....
