Smile For Me (Robert Downey Jr fanfic)

The Push comes to shove

I sat in the backseat worried about what Diana. "What happened?" I asked Gwen. "I was in the middle of taking my trash out to the road when I heard screaming. I could see in clear view Francis hitting Diana. I was so afraid for her I immediately called the cops. I have no clue why they were fighting. All Diana told me was to get you. I never in a million years think Francis would do this." replied Gwen. "He's been doing this to her for years. It ends today." "I take it you two have a close relationship." "I love her." "But, Robert she's a married woman." "I don't care. I refuse to let this asshole continue abusing her." "Oh dear, you've got yourself in quite a dilema. To be honest, I'm glad you are involved. Diana deserves someone to care for her." "Thanks." "I just know it's not going to be easy with Francis. He will refuse to let her go." "I'm willing to do whatever it takes for her to be with me." "Oh here we are." We made it to the hospital and rushed inside. I asked the nurse about Diana and they said she is being treated. I hate waiting. A few hours past and the doctor finally came out. "How is she?" I asked promptly. "Mrs. Jefferson suffered some minor injuries but, she is doing fine." replied the doctor. "And the baby?" "I'm sorry?" "The baby. She took a pregnancy test and it came back positive." "Let me check her chart." He began looking at the file and nodded his head. "She didn't mention and pregnancy. Allow me to run some quick tests." "Can we see her?" "Not right now." The doctor walked away. "Shit!" I exclaimed. "Calm down its going to be fine." assured Gwen rubbing my back. I hope my child is okay.

Another hour past and I seen two officers along with the doctor come out. I rushed over to them. "Is the baby okay?" I asked frustrated. "Ah, yes the fetus is fine. She's a good week and a half pregnant." answered the doctor. Thank you God. "Are you the husband?" he asked. "No." "The victims husband is in jail." added the officer. "Did she press charges? Is he getting out?" "Yes, she pressed charges. We thought wasn't going to but, she did good. All she asked was for a restraining order." "That's great news." "You can go see her now. Just one at a time." said the doctor. "You go see her. I have to get home. Just let me know what happens." said Gwen. "Thanks for bringing me here. I will keep you posted." She waved good bye and I followed the doctor. I walked into the room. Diana was curled up on the bed crying. I sat down next to her placing my hand on her back. She jumped moving away from me. She had fear in her eyes as she held her knees against her hiding her face. "Diana, its me Robert. Everything is going to be fine." I said softly to her. She shot her head up quick and wrapped her arms around me. I sat up on the bed some craddling her against me. She weeped against my neck embracing tightly. "You are safe now. I'm so proud of you." "He tried to kill me." said Diana. My face harden as I held her tight against me. "Thanks to our Gwen that never happened." "He know about the pregnancy." "What did he say?" "He said he doesn't want any fucking kids." "Bastard." "I don't what came over me but, I started arguing with him when slapped me. Like everything I had been wanting to say to him just came out. I even told him about us and that the baby wasn't his anyway. I told him that I wanted a divorce and that I never loved him. For the first time in my life I felt good." I smiled down at her giving her a kiss on her forehead. "I'm so proud of you, honey." "Your not mad I told him about us?" "Of course not. Diana, I love you with all my heart. I kept praying that one day you would finally get the strength to stand up to him." She smiled at me gazing into my eyes. "I love you." I pressed my lips against hers kissing her pationately. My heart was at ease knowing that Diana was finally mine.

*Three days Later*

I sat there waiting for the officer to bring Francis. I had the divorce papers ready so that he can sign them. They brought him in handcuffed sitting him down. His piercing demon eyes glared into mine. Stay strong. He cracked a smile at me and I pushed the file towards him. "What is this?" he asked. "Just sign it." I replied. He opened it and read it. He closed it up and slid it across the table. "You must be fucking crazy if you think I'm going to sign that." "I'm through with you Francis. You have caused me so much pain in this marriage. What's the point of keeping me near you. Save yourself the drama and sign it!" "I'm not going to give you the satisfaction after what you have done. The only way you could ever be free of me. Is in a body bag!" He stood up from the chair flipping the table over. He grips his massive hand around my neck squeezing tight. He had me pinned against the wall. "You and Robert will never be together. I will never give you a divorce. You're mine! Do you hear me?!" A group of officers rushed in pulling Francis out of the room. I hit the floor trying to regain my breath. "You alright, Ma'am?" asked the female officer next me. "I'm fine." I managed to choke out. I felt so frighten at what just happened. I knew he wasn't going to sign it. I don't know what to do. My life along with Robert's are now under attack. Francis will be getting out of jail. I just know it. Money talks and he has plenty of it.
