It ain't me (Sequel to "What an asshole you are, Zachary"), Zach Kornfeld fanfic

Fiona

I woke up in the middle of the night, immediately realising I was in the room with a couple other women but they all were sleeping. I had given birth to Fiona two days ago and even though I knew she was in safe hands here I still sometimes couldn't sleep at night. And tonight was no different.

Grabbing my now almost flat stomach I sighed. My whole body still ached due to giving birth and I bled more than during all my periods in life. The hospital bed was extremely uncomfortable so I decided to get up and go to my baby girl. I was quite lucky the staff here let us wander around during the night and hold our babies if we couldn't sleep.

"Ah, mrs. Graham, are you awake again?" The administrator asked and gave me a huge smile. I nodded and ran my hand through my greasy hair, looking forward to holding Fiona again.

"I keep waking up, afraid someone will hurt her or take her away from me," I admitted and she handed me a paper to sign. 

"Oh, a lot of women are scared of that. But no worries, I promise you nothing will happen to here," Her eyes were understanding and I gave her a weak smile.

Nothing will happen her here. But what about home where Luke was? Luke that once was so smiley and gentle but ever since the night I spent at Zach's acted like a damn monster. We kept fighting over stupid stuff and he sometimes threatened me so I no longer felt safe at his place.

Gently stroking Fiona's hair I smiled at her, wanting nothing more but her to be safe. She was sleeping in her crib like a worded perfection. Her tiny hands were resting on the bed and I wanted to rise her in cuddle her in my lap. But that would wake her up so I decided it would be the best if I just sat in the chair next to her.

As I was observing pure perfection beside me I felt my phone buzzing. Obviously there was someone else that couldn't sleep and I immediately knew it was either Luke or Zach. None of the options was good right now. One I have simply been ignoring for a while now and the other one was just abusing me in all the ways possible. His insults sometimes went further to hits yet I felt like there was nothing I could have done about that, specially before pregnancy.

I left my Florida life, a good job and my family for him. All the Graham family members were telling me not to get with him so quickly after my divorce from Zach yet somehow I didn't listen to any of them. Now I was so mad at myself for doing this, I would be better off single. The worst thing was that none of my friends knew about the way he acted towards me. I was too ashamed of letting them know.

"How did I get in a mess like this, Fi?" I looked at my daughter and felt tears forming in my eyes. My hands were running through my hair, making them stick in all different directions. She was a baby and was supposed to be crying, not me as an adult, who was responsible for her. Stroking her baby hair I pulled my phone out of my robe and looked at the screen.

Zach: Kiara, I wish you, Luke and your daughter the best. Congratulations on making your family bigger. X

Furrowing my brows I looked at Fiona again, knowing I should have told Zach about her. She was so obviously not Luke's daughter since her eyes were just as big as Zach's. She resembled him a lot more than me and only now I realised how much I actually missed Zach.

Luke was not there for me while giving birth cause he had an appointment at his doctor. This turned out to be a drinking session with his friends what I was really mad about. I started realising how much I actually hated him but also depended on him.
