Love is complicated

Chapter 14 time has come

They kissed and enjoyed it, before they went back home and lay down together. She felt the baby kick again.

"Oh my god, Mikey, you need too feel him!"

She grabbed his hand and put it on her stomach. The baby kicked again. Mike started to cry.

"Oh my god that's amazing," he said, lifting her shirt up and kissing her stomach.
He was so happy, words could not describe how they felt. Just then they heard people screaming outside. They got up and looked through the window. It was Rhea bleeding on the ground, and Alex was there.

"Alex, what are you doing?!" Kara yelled.

"Giving her the death sentence she deserves!"

"Why? We shouldn't kill!"

"Kara, you don't understand! Rhea is a lying bitch!!"

"Yes, I know, but we shouldn't kill, she can go to jail for abuse and all that!" Kara yelled.
k"Everyone get away and back leave this area right now!" Alex yelled, almost pulling the trigger. Just then Mike ran up to Alex, grabbed the gun and pointed it toward Rhea's heart.

"You won't kill me, Michael. I know I hurt you, and I am sorry. Please don't kill me."

"Shut up!!!! Did you kill my father?" he asked, crying and shaking.

"Yes, I did, but only because he was lying about loving you. When you first came, he never loved me back. He only loved you, and then he got sick with cancer, so I killed him to end his pain."

"Lies! You killed my father out of your own fucking benefit!"

"Michael, I'm telling the truth, just listen to me."

"No, I won't do that, all you have ever done to me is abuse me for being here. For being anywhere."

"Are you talking about Kara? That girl has poisoned you, she is a Danvers, for God's sake, her sister is a murderer!"

"Shut up, Rhea!! Kara will never ever kill or hurt anyone. She has the most amazing and caring and incredible soul. She is the best thing that has ever happened to me!"

"You can't feel this way for a girl. Besides, I have heard you guys have a lot of history. She doesn't love you Michael, she is using you."

"No, she isn't, Rhea!! She loves me back and we will have a son together!"

"You're pregnant?!" Rhea looked at Kara.

"Yeah, I am," Kara said.

"Wow, even more of a bad person for you, Michael. You got her pregnant, probably for her own benefit so she can leave you alone. With a baby to take care of."

"Will you shut up!!" he said, picking her up and taking her somewhere with no cameras.

"Mike, don't do this, please," Kara cried.

"It's okay Kara, this what I have to do. I can't take this woman anymore."

"Michael you will be burdened forever, please don't kill her. It's not worth it. Your son needs a father who is not a killer."

"Kara, I know, but I have to!" he said, crying and shaking.

"No, you do not Mike, you never have to."

He cried harder, "how can I let this woman live when all she has ever done is made me feel miserable!"

"She will go to jail for murder and abuse."

"She will just come back, Kara."

"I see your point, but she is already almost dead. She is bleeding out."

He cried. He couldn't kill her, not when he realized what kind of man he would be. He shook his hand and accidentally pulled the trigger. The bullet it hit Rhea, and she fell to the ground, bleeding out.

"Michael!!! Why did you do that?!"

"Kara I..... I didn't mean to I swear I was going to put the gun away but my hands were shaking too much. I pulled the trigger by accident."

"I believe you, now we have to go! Before someone sees us!"

"You're right!" They left, and Mike hid the gun in his dresser.

"Are you okay?" Kara said, hugging him.

"No I am not, I am gonna go take a shower."

"Okay, I will order pizza."

"I don't feel like eating, order something for yourself." he said, shutting the bathroom door.

She ordered herself some Wendy's. She was sitting on the couch, about to put on a show on the television. When she heard a faint cry.

She got up and went to the bathroom. She opened the door and Mike was there, crying under the water.

"Baby," she cried

"Kara, leave me alone."

"No I won't do that, come here," she said, sitting down next to the bathtub. He leaned toward her and held her tight.

"You were right, I can't believe I did that. I regret it, I...."

"Hey, Mike, it's okay you didn't mean to."

"Thank you, Kara, for not hating me."

"Why would I hate you? For an accident?"

"Because I am a murderer."

"Michael, you saved lives, that woman was a horrible person. You are not horrible, you are so amazing..."

"I love you, Kara Danvers."

They kissed and hugged and she helped him get out of the shower.

They lay down again. Kara had actually bought food for Mike as well, without him knowing. They ate and fell asleep. Mike woke up screaming.

"Mike, what is it? Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm okay, just I had a nightmare about my mom."

"It's okay, it was just a dream," she said, holding him closer.

He fell asleep peacefully, in Kara's arms, but he kept dreaming about killing her. He kept regretting it but he couldn't change the past, he would have to live on with it. Or confess to the police sooner or later.

Couple of weeks later... Mike was doing much better since Kara signed him up for therapy. He confessed that he killed his mother. But they didn't arrest him because it was clearly an accident. Because of what she had done, they would have killed her anyway, or condemned her life sentence. Kara was really close to giving birth to their son, it was just a matter of days.
