Lizz nodded "yeah i tried to snap him out of it after the first week. He wouldn't have come after you, he would have told you that if you needed him to just let him know." she said simply shrugging. "Sky has a boyfriend, Lukas hates him. I know sky is wondering if you and Lee are going to split." she said informing her of some things she had missed. After a minute or two she spoke again "You and Lee need time alone, from kids and each other"
The way that Lizz said it made Fleur fell even more guilty. Selfishly she liked the idea of Lee travelling half way across the world to find her, but where would of that let their children. Lee ahd told her that William had been staying at Lizz's, but that still didn't do much to keep it looking like they were a prefect family.Thanks Lizz, I know how much pressure I must of put you under to make sure he and the kids were ok.I don't know what I would of done if he'd just turned up in Austria outside my parents house. Fleur uttered, trying to catch the barmans attention for another drink.Fleur was trying not to think about the confentation she would have to do with her children.She was hoping that Lee would take control of the situation, meaning that she would get as damaged. I don't really know what to say to them Lizz.I don't think, 'I couldn't take the pressure of looking after your baby brother', really cuts it.How is William? Fleur asked. She was sure he must of grown so much from the last time she had seen him.
Lizz nodded "I know it wouldn't sound right to them and its not the right thing to say. Sit down and talk with Lee about what your going to say. Your a family, and you and Lee need to be on the same page, if that means he has to carry you to where he is so be it. but stick together. a house divided can not stand, and its the truth" she said nodding. "He's great, about ready to take his first steps"
Chris smiled at her.His mother nodded "good for you!"
"Its going very well thank you" he said smiling at her not having known that she had told her family of the job. Chris silently wondered if Tara could read minds
Lizz nodded "I know it wouldn't sound right to them and its not the right thing to say. Sit down and talk with Lee about what your going to say. Your a family, and you and Lee need to be on the same page, if that means he has to carry you to where he is so be it. but stick together. a house divided can not stand, and its the truth" she said nodding. "He's great, about ready to take his first steps"
Fleur stopped herself mid sentence while ordering another drink. She couldn't take another, not because of what Lizz had said to her earlier, but something else that was effected by her drinking. She couldn't believe she hadn't thought of the problem earlier. She shook her head at the barman, when he asked ehr if she actually wanted a drink and then went to serve some else. There was something else that she would have to tell the twins now, and she wasn't looking forward to it. Even she wasn't sure herself about it. It felt strange mentioning it, when she herself had only just found out. But Lizz, I'm pregnant. Fleur uttered. It was the main factor that wasn't going to be in her favour when explaining her absence to the twins. She didn't know how Lizz would react, but she felt a little more reasured talking to her about it, rather than Lee.She was sure that he wouldn't of even noticed her absense in the house.The new on William, made her stomach jump. She couldn't believe she was willing to miss that.It made her, want to see him badly, though she was sure if she did, she might not be able to handle it yet. He's growing up so fast. Fleur whispered under her breath.
Lizz watched her decline another drink and wondered if maybe Fleur was hiding something from her or if she was keeping it under control. It wasn't until Fleur spoke that she understood abotu the drink but still shocked her completely "Wait. Your pregnant?" she asked raising her eyebrows gently not to sure what she thought. Since she loved being a grandmother she was estatic that another grandchild was on the way. However, it worried her the way it might affect Fleur, Lee, the twins and overall their marriage. "Yeah he is growing up fast. But what are you going to do about this baby on the way?"
Being so close to the bar, was overly tempting. Fleur desperately wanted another drink, it was the only way she could see herself calming down about everything and generally forgetting, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. The first time, well she almost wanted to drink on purpose, but now that the idea set in, she couldn't drink another drop of alcohol. Pushing herself to the edge of the bar stool, just in case of any desires to drink came about, she looked at Lizz fully in the face. She didn't know whether she wanted this child, but it was there and even though she found it hard thinking about the possibilities for now she was trying to get her head around the fact that there was something inside of her.It wasn't something I wanted as a welcome home present.But yes, I am. Fleur muttered. Of course it wasn't completely Lee's fault, she should of been more observant to what was happening, not that she was going to give Lizz those sort of details. I don't know. I still haven't got my head around it.I don't know what to do. Fleur said stressly, running her fingers through her hair. She guessed she wanted Lizz to give her the option that she should take, but she didn't know whether she felt comfortable doing whatever option it will be.
Lizz watched her as she kept silent for a while and wondered if they shouldn't tell the twins if they weren't going to keep it. As she spoke she nodded smiling softly before getting up and hugging her "You know you have three options" she told Fleur gently and in the end it was her and Lee's choice mostly FLeurs since she would be the one carrying and giving birth to this child if they chose to go that route. Either way no matter what they chose Fleur would have to deal with some sort of pain in any way or another.
Her body was still a little bit numb from the news, as much as from the drink she'd consumed earlier. It was probably another reason why she'd sneaked out the house while Lee was sleeping. Of course they had been talking about it earlier on, but Fleur just didn't know what she truly wanted, was getting rid of it the only option that would help her get on with the rest of her life with Lee? Or was it just going to make herself feel even worse for doing it? Of course this moment was a little like deja vu. She'd had this conversation before, knew the options she had. But it still wasn't eazy to think about. Of course Lizz laid it out straight for her, in true Lizz fashion, but in the end it was more up to what her and Lee decided. She knew that Lee would give her want she wanted, which meant that the decided was mostly on her. That stressed her out, even more. Knowing that the decision was souly hers. They still had time to talk about it. What do you think I should do? Give me your true opinion. Fleur asked.
Lizz watched her and sat back down, when she asked her what she thought that Fleur should do she was a bit taken back. What should she tell her? The normal answer of its her and Lee's decision or should she tell her what she would do herself. "Fleur I don't know what you should do. Thats between you AND Lee. Its your decisions combined that will be the end result ok? I know he'll say its yours but just tell him that you need his opnion as well. He doesn't want you to hurt anymore than necessiary and he'll even try to prevent that from happening. But I will tell you this: If you chose to get rid of it can you live with the fact of the abortion? If you put it up for adoption, are you and Lee going to be ok with either never seeing the child again unless it comes trying to find their true parents and what then will you say or can you watch it call some one else mom and dad? If you decide to have it, can you trust Lee enough to support you and trust yourself to ask him when help is needed?"
