Okay Catu, here is your fight. Melly your walking scene will be soon.
This fight was hard for me. I never had Mac and Stella fight like this. Wow... enjoy this new side to Mac and Stella's pain.:lol:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Once Don was gone, Mac wheeled himself into the den with his granddaughter.
"Here Mac, I should take her. Just in case she slips."
"I ccan do it Sstella, we're ffine. Ddon't worry."
"I do worry Mac, if you get another spasm, you could drop her by accident."
"I'm not ththat stupid Sstella. God... whwhat is it with you lately. Always you ththink I'm such an invaled. Jjust give it a break, okay?"
Jessica started crying.
"Look what you've done Mac, you've upset her. Why do you feel this constant need to bellow?"
"Bbellow? I wwasn't bbellowing. Jesus Cchrist Sstella, why are you always pputting me in a rotten mmood. Sometimes you jjust ppiss me off."
"Look Mac, just give me Jessica, you have her all upset."
"Nno. She's my granddaughter ttoo. I'll calm her ddown, jjust leave us, Stella."
"I'm not leaving you with her. You can't even look after yourself. How can you look after her?"
Stella stood shocked. She couldn't believe what she had said. Where the hell did that come from. She could see the pain, the hurt, across her husbands face. God was this how she really felt? Did she really feel he was useless, and unstable?
Giving his wife the most pained, and angered look. He passed her his granddaughter.
"You know Sstella, of all the ththings you could have ssaid, or felt. I never ththought it wwould be ththat. I'm ssorry if I'm not enough mman for you anymore. Mmaybe you shshould ddivorce me and ththen you can ffind yourself a rreal man. I mmean, God knows you have yyour pick of ththem. Hell... you ccould have Fflack for that mmatter. He's ssingle now, mmaybe the ttwo of you ccan even have more chchildren. God knows I'm nnot mman enough to give you anymore. Oor I really like Andrew. Hell... he'd be pperfect for you ttoo. Jjust send mme a note whwhen you've made your choice."
Picking up a vase, he threw it at the wall, causing Jessica to scream all the more. Wheeling himself from the room, he headed into his exercise room, and locked the door.
"Mac... come on Mac. I didn't mean it. I'm sorry. Please, Mac. Let's talk about it."
"Ggo to hell Sstella, I gave you yyour freedom, go ccease it."
Hearing nothing but silence in the room. Stella was even more worried. Not knowing what to say, she stayed silent. Then she heard the crash of things being thrown throughout the room.
"Hey, we're home. Where is everyone? What the hell is that?"
First thing MJ noticed were his grandmothers tears, and Jessica screaming. Second thing, was the sound of things being thrown in the exercise room.
"Stella... are you okay? What's the matter?"
"Oh Melina. I said something very horrible to Mac. I didn't mean too. I don't even know where it came from. I was only worried he'd drop the baby."
MJ gave his grandmother a quizical look.
"What did you say to him?"
"I told him... how can he look after a baby, when he can't even look after himself."
"What? Why would you say that to him? That's the worse thing you can say to anyone. He must think you no longer have faith in him, or in his abilities. God... I can't believe you'd say that. He's been through hell. We all have. But no one more then him. He was making amazing progress, you may have just set him back months."
"I know MJ, I"m sorry. I really don't know where it came from."
"That's the easy part, Stella. It came from your own fears. Fears that you still have locked within you. Fears that have nothing to do with what happened. But fears that are caused by you thinking your husband is no longer the man he was. I'm thinking you may need to talk to someone outside the family. You obviously have deeper pain, then what you have let on, or talked about with Mac. This happens alot to couples after a serious event. "
"Papa... papa, open this door. Open it right now."
"Ggo to hell..." as he heard the crash when he threw the weight against the door. Causing MJ, to jump back.
"All of yyou gget the hell out of my llife."
"This isn't good. He's going to hurt himself. How the hell are we going to get in there? What if he goes into a fit. he has no medication in there."
"Calm down, MJ. It's going to be alright. Who is Mac closest too, outside the members of this house?"
"Eric. He shares a unique special bond with Eric. The two of them use to be inseperable. always they would get into some kind of trouble together. I'd go with Eric."
"Okay, call him MJ. Ask him to come over here."
Leaving the room, MJ called Eric, while Melina called her father.
