Walking back downstairs she found Abigail

"Stevie, are you alright?" She said worried

"I'm fine," Stevie smiled softly

"Honey, what happened to your hair?"

"Lisa....but it's okay."

"What did she do?" Abigail said angrily

"I was feeding David...my son."

"So...what was the problem with that?"

"She's legally his mother."

"You were just giving him a bottle Stevie"

"I breastfeed him."

"Shit..." she said blowing out

"I just miss him. I didn't mean to!"

"Well did he latch alright?"

"Perfectly," Stevie smiled

"Then that tells you he knows your his mother"

"He remembers me."

"You are probably who he remembers when he's hungry" she smiled

"He's gotten so big!"

"I would love to meet him"

"He's coming to see me tomorrow!"

"Just be careful alright? Don't expect Lindsey to turn up to much"

"I haven't. But I think something changed tonight. He's softer."

"Softer?" Abigail questioned

"Kind."

"What was he doing when you walked in?"

"You don't want to know...."

"What was he doing...?"

"I don't want to talk about it..."

"Stevie...?"

"Please."

"Was he fucking her?" Abigail asked bluntly

"Abigail, yes."

"And you think he's changed? You were supposed to be getting married today! You know, I phoned him earlier to ask where he was...and he said 'fucking his fiancé' then said he'd be by tomorrow because he was busy Today..."

"Abigail, please!" Stevie yelled

"I'm looking out for you Stevie! Honey, you deserve a lot more than that!"

"This conversation is over!"

"Stevie...what if she gets pregnant?" She said worried

"Abigail, shut up!"

"I'm just saying its a possibility! I will kill him!"

Stevie refused to speak to her for he rest of the ride

Before they got out of the car at the centre Abigail turned to Stevie and held her hand

"I'm sorry Stevie...I just...I saw this happen to my parents, and it mentally killed my mom...I don't want to see you the same way"

"I appreciate that," Stevie squeezed her hand

Once inside Stevie went back to her room, and sat on the bed

"He does love me," Stevie told herself

Staring at the phone she didn't know if she should call or not...
