E4: Sharing

NICK:

It was a month ago when Eric's men told him about Ruth's whereabouts.

We have been trying to get to locate her from four fuckín years now but never been able to spot her!

It's still hard to make out how the fuck did she even escaped out from my island! I made sure of every tiny bit of security around the entire place for her.

Four years spent without her were like a living hell for me!

Every single day I would hire detectives to find her and then at night, end up killing them when they couldn't find her whereabouts.

And a month ago, Erickson Roerig called me,

"You don't have to waste your energy and sources into finding her anymore, I know where she is... And I'm willing to negotiate some terms with you!"

He had said.

"Terms"

Ofcourse, he was going to inform me if he ever found Ruth! He maybe the king and the most powerful man on the planet but still, I'm not gonna sit back and let him have Ruth if he ever caught her!

And I'm sure he wouldn't want the history to repeat, we all know he would be the last man she would ever choose among all of us!

"What kind of terms?"

"I'm willing the share! There is no point in fighting. It would only repeat the cycle of me, Micheal and you fighting cats and dogs for her!"

"Right!"

He was right!

He was the king, I'll have to stake my everything to have Ruth but if I had Ruth, he will go into losses too!

But neither of us could leave her alone!

That wasn't possible!

"So Mike is in the plan too?"

"You know he would do anything to have her!" He scoffed.

So this is it!

We were sharing Ruth!

Among the three of us!

It's weird Eric would do something like that, he was never into sharing things.

I could see a plot-hole here completely!

Maybe he is thinking to let us have her and then buy himself sometime to make Ruth his?

Or maybe he just want to get us all together so he could just get rid of us and have Ruth to himself?

Or maybe....

There is no end to these MAYBE here!

All I know is that, He does not have the orders to kill either me, or Micheal or Chris... If only he did, I hate to admit this but we would have been long out of his and Ruth's life and Ruth would have been Ruth Erickson Roerig now, instead of being, Ruth Brian Lewis!

"You take care of the husband and Micheal would take care of her little filth! Let get the bitch back to her hell hole!"

Right!

Let's get the bitch back to her hell hole, where she belongs... To us!!

"Brian Lewis is heading to the basement, it's time you guys get into action"

I ordered my men down the building.

RUTH:

Sending Brian to work every morning could be some really tough job. My house becomes a complete mess first thing in the morning every working day, with Brian yelling about his tie and sock and Irene making me crazy with her shooting tantrums of being fed only and only by her dad.

And above of all pregnancy hormones makes me all the more cranky.

So the starting of everyday is a circus at home until Brian goes off to work.

I threw myself in the couch switching on the television after getting done with the house chores when Irene came upto me carrying the doctor set in her small hands.

"Moma play with Baby Irene?"

"Sure!" I said switching the television off and turing towards her. She placed the

plastic stethoscope over my baby bump and started to act mature.

"Hmm.. baby Loui sounds good!"

She can't say "Lewis" so, she says it "Loui". We haven't thought about the name yet but we saw the reports and I'm expecting a boy this time.

"Really doctor? Aww, that's good!"

I smiled and so did she.

I tried playing with her for a while where she was the doctor and I was the nurse trying to operate one of her barbies when I recieved a call from Scarlett.

"Hey Babe!"

"Okay, Listen up! Me and our wild troop has planned out something really crazy for your twenty fifth birthday eve tonight."

She chirped hastily.

"You just made me realise I've turned old now with that" I pout.

"Ohh come on! No one turns old until they cross thirty. You and Brian are coming down tonight!"

"I'll have to drop Irene to Aunt Mary for that. Okay, Let me figure it out with

Brian first and I'll let you know." I replied and ended up the conversation.

It's been a while ever since the last time we went out together at a party. Life has been very busy for us getting married, having Irene, taking care of her.

I called Brian.

Weird that he wasn't returning my calls. Maybe he would be stuck up at a meeting or something.

I tried almost an hour later and he finally picked up.

"Uhh.. Ruth? Hi!" He sounded a little off with his hoarse voice there on the line.

"You don't sound okay?"

"Uh.. N-no, I'm fine! It's just some work... You wanted to say something?"

"I called to ask about this thing.. Scarlett was planning, she must have talked to you about it in the office?"

"I didn't get a chance to talk to her! I was in a meeting with the MD." He said and I could feel him gritting his teeth when he mentioned the MD of his company.

"Uhh... okay, so she was planning of a wild party for me tonight. Do you think you'll be free till seven tonight? I'll drop Irene to Aunt Mary then, so we could head to the party together?" I asked.

"You know how wild these parties can get serving alcohols... I don't want my baby anywhere near that environment right now! So, are you free after seven?"

I asked again.

"Yeah. Sure. I'm gonna be free for a long long time after tonight." He sighed and mumbled sounding weird.

"Umm... what?"

"Nothing!" He chirped again, getting back to the happy himself, "What are you wearing for the party tonight?"

I bit my lips when he asked me that question, my mind suddenly turning to dirty mode now and I breathed out in a naughty tone

"Maybe something you would like to have me in the dessert tonight?"

"Ooohh.." Brian whistled, "You just turned me on saying that babe!"

I bit my tongue, turning red in love, feeling of being cherished by him.

"I'll be looking forward to my dessert tonight then!" He said, in a husky, sexy voice and I just mumbled just as seductively before getting over with the phone call...

"I'll be waiting for tonight on my knees master!"

BRIAN:

I decided not to tell anything to Ruth about being fired from my job.

It was her birthday tonight and she was pregnant!

Giving her a multiple shock so big would be the last thing I would wanna do to her.

After getting off with her phonecall I took heavy steps towards my cabin, collecting all of my stuff up packing them all in a box and carrying it in my hands I handed the key to my cabin over to my assistant Scarlett.

She wasn't thrown out of here... I was!

It's all known to me that when a company is purchased by someone else people do loose thier jobs or get their paychecks affected, but with Mr. Doherty... it was like he was here only to target me!

He didn't do anything to other's, just me!

"Did you tell Ruth about it?" Scarlett asked looking at me in pitty.

"Tell her what? Happy Birthday babe, you know your husband just lost a job but don't stress because you're pregnant?!" I yelled at her irritated

"Why are you shouting, I was just trying to help!"

"I don't NEED YOUR HELP!" I shouted again. Every co-worker shot us a look and it was embarrassing for Scarlett there.

I sighed, trying to calm down, "I'm sorry! I just... I'm not in my best mood right now! I'll see you tonight at the party!" I mumbled and walked away with the carton in my hands.
