"I know...I still don't know what to think though..." I say now resting my head on the table.

"I do with all my heart, but I was getting used to the single life again..." I sigh. "I was kidding myself, who would ever want to date a girl with four kids three years old and younger...."

"If you still love him, and he still loves you, I don't see what the problem is."

"The problem is...I never told him about Jenny..." I say looking at him.

"Well...er...that is a problem." I say, stomach lurching unpleasantly.
Just like you never told Maddie about Poppy...not that it matters now you fucking woman beater.
"But...erm...I don't actually know what to say to that one."

"Let me guess...Poppy?" I say to him. "Rowan told me that he was watching her for you, because she's your and Erins' daughter..." I say softly.

"He did? Bastard," I mutter under my breath, "Yeah, she is. And I didn't tell Maddie. Although it doesn't really matter now."

I sigh slightly. "It must, since you didn't let me kiss you...I know you still love her Ian..." I say softly.

"Shell, I-...I did something...really bad. I-...I never meant to-...just we were arguing and I didn't mean to hit her."

I stand up as tall as I could and walk right up to him. "YOU HIT HER!!!" I slap him across the face. "ARE YOU CRAZY!! SHE'S CARRYING YOUR BABY!!!" I say trying to hold back slapping him again just glaring at him coldly waiting for an answer.

"No she isn't," I say, only half flinching as she slapped me, "It's dead. Has been for days and she didn't tell me. I was leaving, we were arguing, and she slapped me and told me..." I stop for a moment, "She told me she was surprised I hadn't driven anymore people into jumping off a tower. And I lost control and hit her back."

I just stare at him. "She said that? You know what you're both crazy..." I say sitting back down, not looking at him. "You still shouldn't have slapped her, no matter what she says..."

I just sit there not wanting to pry, looking at the ground.

"Sorry, this is stupid. I shouldn't be bothering you with all my shit while you have your own problems," I mumble, pressing my palms to my foreheads.

"No, it's okay...I always bothering you with my problems it's your turn..." I say with a hand on his knee.

I shrug slightly, "It's fine anyway...well, not fine. It's not fine at all. My child's dead, me and Maddie are long over, my brother's no longer talking to me, Logan's back and pissed as hell but somehow satisfied in the knowledge that he tricked me into killing my best friend instead of him, and my other best friend is freaking out because she's 15 years old, her boyfriend's dead and she's pregnant and can't deal. And I have no idea what to do about anything."

I laugh without humour, "So there you go. That's that at the moment."

I sigh. "That's too much, but as for your friend..." I say stopping for a second to think. "I was pregnant at 14 with Jenny. I let Logan have custody over her, because I thought I couldn't do it as well, but I honestly regret it..." I say to him hoping he'd understand.

I look up at her a moment, feeling quite ill, and just nod mutely, looking back at the table.

I just nod slightly. "Maybe we should drink and forget about this conversation?" I suggest to him.

"Alright then..." I say getting a tray of muggle rum and scotch. "This stuff is stronger than a firewhiskey..." I say handing him a few shot glasses.
