The Mother of All

Chuck's Mistakes

         I should have waited. Let what Becky said leave my mind but I couldn't I needed to tell her how I felt. To show her that I did care. After all of this time I didn't even know if she would want to see my face. I walked through heaven and it was quiet. The last time I was here the boys were still young. There was no such thing as quite with them.

"Hello?" I was worried when she didn't answer and for a moment I didn't care if she hated my guts I just needed to see her. I wanted her to be mine. I needed her to be next to me again and tell me everything was going to be okay. I waited and she still wasn't anywhere to be found, "Rose I really need to talk to you. I'm sorry. I'm so damn sorry, and I don't blame you if you never want to see me again but we need to talk."

"What could you possibly want to talk about? After everything you did what could we possible talk about." I tired to be mean and there was venom in my voice, but even I was convinced that I didn't care. Looking at Chuck I saw the same man I fell in love with. The father of my boys. The man who created the world. I hated what he did to me but that didn't change who he had been. Who he still was. There was a moment of pain a moment of decision and he made the wrong one. He had been too human. Who was I to judge him for that?

"I know you saw what happened Rose."

"What am I to you Chuck? You act like you care but you never came to see me. You took the boys from me and now your here apologizing for loving someone else. I'm dead. What do I matter?" My voice was shaky with anger, fear, but most of all the realization that for once everything I was telling him was true. 

"Don't say that. Please don't say that."

"Why?"

"Because I love you. I always have okay. Yes I've been with other people, but they weren't you. Nobody is like you Rose. Hell I've been trying to bring you back but I can't. I've tried and I just can't."

"Did you ever think to consider that I don't want to be back. You keep trying to bring me back to Earth. I died there in front of Michael. He was just a kid and I couldn't even protect him for something we created. What if that had been him Chuck? I couldn't have lived with myself. I just want my boys back. All I want is our family back." Chuck stared at me for a moment. Sadness filled his eyes and just like that he was gone. No goodbye. No I miss you. No I'll see you soon. Just gone. I guess that's all he will ever be good at. I guess he didn't care as much as he claimed. Chuck wasn't the man I had fallen for. How hadn't I seen that earlier? 

A/N- I know this one is short I'm working on making them longer but I like where this one ended so I hope you enjoy the story. Have an awesome day or night wherever you are in the world.
