~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Cheyenne and Paul have been so happy after the birth of their sweet girl Claire. They had some special photos taken after her birth. Here is a special black & white of the three.
We left off with Chris and Allison still as an item..... Lets catch you up to speed...... things are about to get juicy.
Chris and Allison had a good thing going. The romance & love they had from years ago, ignited again. Being a vetinarian at the local animal hospital & back in Ash Harbor, the place she loved, it was her passion! She spent a lot of evenings cuddled up in Chris's arms and talking about the future. She never thought her life would change as quickly has it had.
One weekend Allison and her sister Shayna went to handle some family business out of town. Her aunt had been very sick and they were the only family left to take care of things. That is when things took a turn for the worse.
Chris was feeling a little bitter with her working a lot and not being around as much. The fact she was back in his life made him happy but, he still felt like she was at only arms reach. Lying in bed drinking a beer, he was pretty buzzed by then. His phone alerted him he had a text. When he looked at the phone, he saw it was from a familiar someone named, Evelyn. Evelyn is a wealthy investor and someone Chris has known since he was 16. Oh yes and before I forget, she's friends with his mother... I know your shaking your head on this one. Any way. She decided to venture to see him that evening and the two tangled in the sheets like old times. Evelyn, she seemed to always be lurking behind the curtain. Like a snake ready to bite when ever the time arose. They never had a relationship, because of course not even his mother knew. When he was 16 he got a taste of this vixen of a lady. If he had a money issues or in need of something she would be there. It had been about 4 years since they last saw one another.

Once Allison returned home, her thoughts of beginning a family with Chris was so heavy on her mind. When her sister and her met for a day at the park, she talked about how she wanted a baby so much.
Having a few glasses of wine before he was due to come over, got her feeling tipsy and hoping that tonight would be the night. Allison longed for a chance to be a mother again. Now her and Chris were together again, no time like the present.
When he came in there was some tension , and she wasn't sure why he was not all over her like she was use to. Yes, she had been drinking but that was no excuse. Chris always enjoyed his hands on her body. For once in his life, Chris came clean and admitted to cheating on her with Evelyn.Taking the blame and confessing his infidelity, that was a big step for Chris. It hurt and tore Allison to pieces. The room was spinning and the bile in her throat was quickly rushing to exit. Her head pounded and the tears fell as big as quarters. He broke her heart.
He didn't want to leave her in the state she was, knowing she had been drinking. When she pleaded him to leave, he did as she asked. His heart broke knowing he messed up with the one he thought was his soul mate.

Later that evening, even though things were still seeming blurry and she felt like her world had been turn upside down she called her sister Shayna. Shayna was all she had and she needed her.
Shayna came instantly to her sister's. The two sisters were inseparable and when one hurt so did the other. Shayna found her sister drunk and mascara running down her face on the floor. She looked a wreck and she knew Allison needed a change of scenery. Maybe this was for the better, even if at the moment it didn't feel like it was.
So the next day, she helped Allison pack and they headed on a girls weekend vacation.Relaxing in the sun and sand. Allison realized more then she knew on that trip. That even though she was in love & loved Chris, the two were just not meant for one another anymore. Its hard to let your first love go. The one you intended to be your forever.
Chris spent weeks getting his act together. He didn't go to the bar as much either. Instead drinking at home & ignoring Evelyn's phone calls. She caused enough havoc in his life. His mother Pam was a huge help, she reassured him he was a good man. He would find the right girl someday and it all would fall into place.

Allison was back from her vacation for a few days when Shayna invited her to dinner and a drink at The Odessy. The local bar in Ash Harbor everyone loved to hang out at. The vibe was always fun and free.
The girls ate and drank a little when a familiar face entered the dim bar. It was Christian Banks, an old friend of Allison's. Years ago in college she met him thru a mutual group of people. They use to hang out and always liked one another but neither one would confess to it. Once he left off for his job they lost contact. Approaching him he couldn't be more happier to see her. His crystal blue eyes just twinkled like the night time stars.
The two started chatting and she invited him back to her table. Shayna giggled inside her head. Maybe Allison was letting loose and having some fun. They all talked about the good old times...
The two picked up like old times but much more then Allison thought. He confessed his feelings for her. The two quickly began their exciting but rather quick romance. Christian is an FBI agent, and so when he was around he spent his every second with her. His schedule had him local but when he was on duty it was long.
Allison didn't hate him, she just hated his actions which caused their breakup. Yes, he did wrong and that was upsetting to her but, she wasn't ready to completely shut him out of her life. He was so much of her past. Everything they had been through together. The relationship with Christian was incredible but she still loved Chris.

Their romance was blossoming. He touched her heart in so many ways. Making her dreams feel like they were coming true. The way he made love to her and treated her like a queen. These were all new feelings to her. He was tender and very into her feelings. Putting her first.
Allison still was a little unsure and often thought of Chris. She even went to his house trying to persuade him with her naked body. Chris had took a turn for the better. He told her that being she was seeing someone now, she nor he could ever fool around any longer. It would be a double standard. What had been done was done. The past was the past and they could be friends but, not lovers. Trying to make a mends and to change his habits he just couldn't go down that road again.

Some people like to come to Ash Harbor for vacation or to live. Some even come to get away. In the case of Stephanie Rodriguez. Hollywood's beloved Actress, she was escaping from the lights and no privacy.
Stephanie had ties here in the area. She grew up on a farm for a short time as a child about 10 miles outside of Ash Harbor. Her father was a farmer. She remembered growing up with Chickens, Cows and Pigs. Her mom suddenly picked her up and they moved to L.A. when she was 8. Leaving her father, the one she loved so much. Her father had a little bit of a drinking problem and Emelia took Stephanie and fled to California. Stephanie never forgot her father, the way he helped her learn about the land. Dreaming she would be just like him someday and have her own farm. Years passed and she tried to keep in touch with him but her mother forbid it. When she was 21 her mother told her that he had passed. It crushed her to think the farm was there all abandoned. Trying to make her way back this way was very hard. No longer an average person, she was a famous Actress. If she came back she would have to bring her entire entourage. But, now much older and wiser she had enough of the flashy lights and constant paparazzi. She was ready to find love and maybe start a family. Packing up in a car she bought she fueled up and headed to Ash Harbor.
Knowing she would have to disguise herself she wore her eyeglasses because it wasn't public knowledge that she wore those. She decided on Erin being her "name". That was a name of a character she played in a movie years ago. Unsure of going out, she decided to just take a chance. Wearing a hat that covered her head and her black glasses. Her first stop was to the local coffee shop, Baked with Love. Her nerves were getting the best of her but she seemed to go unnoticed. Figuring she would go in and get coffee and go until she turned around and spilt her coffee. Looking up at the handsome gentleman who she spilt the hot cup of Joe on, suddenly left her breathless. It was non other then Chris. Our wonderful local hunk cowboy. The two looked at one another. Sparks burst and these two instantly had a connection.
A few days went by, Stephanie deiced she would go down to the local bar that the barista at the coffee shop told her about. The atmosphere as she walked in was fun, and vibrant. Sneaking past all those drinking and enjoying conversations she took a seat at the bar.
After ordering a drink and trying to be incognito she was spotted! When she heard the familiar deep voice say hello, she recognized that it was Chris! He was just as eager to see her. Striking up a conversation, the two talked and laughed it seemed like for hours. They had a lot in common and the feeling of knowing one another for sometim Chris was very intrigued by this mystery woman.
Chris wanted to know more about this sweet girl who swept in and took the breath out of his chest. Inviting her to join him at the farm one afternoon. He drove her around showing her the beauty of where he lived. When they came upon the field were the horses had been grazing. The sight of the beautiful creatures enjoying the grass took her breath away.Her eyes lite up with delight. Knowing he was putting that smile on her face and those twinkles in her eyes made his heart flutter. This woman had him hooked and sunk like a large mouth bass.
The weeks went by and "Erin" and Chris enjoyed the company of one another. Chris knew it was too soon to even think he was ready for a relationship but, something about her had him craving, yearning for more. They hadn't been intimate with one another. She wasn't ready for that. Chris understood and respected her and gave her that space. He couldn't lie though, it sucked so bad. Her scent lingered when she left. Getting drunk off her lips and craving more. She became his new drug of choice.
As the weeks passed by they learned more about one another. Chris introduced her to his mother Pam. Of course Pam adored her instantly.
Stephanie loved spending her time with Chris. He was everything she wanted in a man. The only thing keeping her from her perfect life was she was living a lie. She wasn't Erin, she was Stephanie. Would he understand that she was really a movie star. Coming here she didn't expect to fall in love with someone. It was just fate. The purpose of coming here was to escape the glamour, lights and Carter! Her ex and very wealthy movie star. Carter felt he had a hold on her and he owned her. News flash, she was her own person and she was taking a stand.
One Saturday afternoon she decided to ride her bike down to the park. Going past the river on her way to the secluded area. Ash Harbor had the most hidden treasure places that made you feel so free. Setting her blanket out on the grassy ground she took her book out. Remembering she received a text from her assistant Mona, Steph decided to video chat with her. Mona missed her an urged an answer to when she would return to LA. Stephanie really didn't have an answer to that. Her plan was, well to not return. To start a new life here, and maybe even possibly with Chris. The two girls laughed and chatted a little longer. Once ending her call with Mona, she decided to call and invite the handsome man who had her all messed up inside.
When he showed up 20 mins later she had those instant churning of butterflies deep in her stomach. He had a way to make her feel the way she always dreamed she deserved to be. Like she was the most beautiful girl in the world. That feeling of pain was deep in her chest It hurt from keeping it secret any longer. She needed to tell him soon before their relationship got even more serious. When he decided to invite her over for dinner that night, that was her chance. Come clean an maybe this summer romance could become more then just a fling.
Showing up that night at his house seeing him standing there grilling and holding his favorite beer, it made Stephanie realize even more now she had to tell him. Her heart was becoming to attached an she wasn't ready to give this up, not ever.
Enjoying a little time together while the sun was sinking on this steamy night. The two were creating their own fire. The sexual tension between the two was off the charts. As the two kissed and caressed one another's skin she could see the hooded look in his eyes. Lust filled and passionate. Chris couldn't get over how good she felt with her body flush with his. Her lips like pillows for his to rest on. The way her tongue chased his yearning for more. He knew he was falling in love with her. Feelings consumed him and he never ever felt like this before, not even with Allison. Stephanie was a dream and everything he ever wanted.
As the two moved into the house. They ate the delicious dinner he cooked then when he broke out the guitar and began singing to her. It made her melt into a puddle of emotions. Hearing how his voice was singing about a girl in a red dress and how he looked at her, she knew he was completely head over heels. His eyes had a look of love. The room began to spin. Stephanie felt her throat tighten. She loved him! Now was the time to tell him she wasn't Erin. She was Stephanie Rodriguez.
As he continued on with the strumming of the guitar her heart was breaking. The tears began falling at the speed of lighting. Not holding it back she wept with frustration and pain. Knowing you love someone so much and you have a potential of loosing them because of a lie.
When he realized she was crying he stopped, putting his guitar down. Asking her with urgency what was wrong. She removed her glasses from her face.
She was the most beautiful woman he ever saw. Taking a deep breath with tears trickling down her cheek she was about to be completely honest and raw. Telling him she needed to be honest and that she wasn't really Erin. She was an actress in Hollywood and her name was Stephanie Rodriguez.
He was confused at to what she was telling him. He realized she was lying about who she was. When she continued to plead with him and tears just rushing down. Reassuring her with his smooth voice, that he wasn't mad. He was confused as hell but, mad he wasn't. Being famous must have been the most difficult thing ever. No privacy, nothing really was sacred. You are watched 24/7. Stephanie felt she had to leave. There was no way he would be ok with this all. Getting ready to head out he came up behind her. His hands touching her arms causing electric shocks. He had that effect on her. He spoke with two words " Don't Go".
Asking him for her reassurance that she heard him right. Yes, he wanted her to stay. To not leave. Doing the only thing Chris knew how to and the way he could express his feelings, he pulled her in by her hips and kissed her with such passion and force.
The spark they formed didn't filter out, it was still burning and brighter then ever. Whatever came their way they would figure it out. They would make it work.
Chris couldn't bare to think of her leaving. Not after how close and connected they have gotten in the last few weeks. He felt like he known her his whole life.....
******************************************
Weeks past by and the two were completely head over heels in love. Like two magnets, they couldn't keep their hands to themselves.
********************************************************
Desire poured out of them both. It had been some time since Stephanie had been intimate with a man. Chris was the right one and she wanted to take it to the next level. So while he was at Paul's having a card game, she went to his house. Going into his room and stripping down into something sexy. Sending him little naughty texts, she also snapped a few photos. That lured him right home into her arms.
The two were beyond inseparable and when he touched her she felt like her insides were burning. The hunger in his eyes was powerful. He claimed her in everyway possible. Exhausting one another to the fullest.
They had no idea the news that was bound to hit them a few days later.
Allison wasn't certain she was pregnant and after 3 tests her fears were confirmed. She hadn't had a period in a while. She really thought it was just stress with everything going on. But, seeing the lines on the pregnancy test hit her like a ton of bricks. Was it Chris's or Christians? Needing to tell Chris in person she was pregnant, she went out to the farm.
Chris didn't look to happy to see her but in her text she told him it was important she saw him. Allison had only been at the farm a short time when she began to tell Chris the reason for her visit. The sweat began dripping from her head and she got nauseous. Feeling like she was about to pass out, she collapsed falling towards Chris.
As panic began to fall over Chris, he scooped her up taking her to his house. What was eating her up so bad it caused her to pass out?
Laying her on the couch and fetching a bottle of water to help her come too, Chris was mortified at what happened. He never wished anything bad on her. As she opened her eyes and spoke he was eager for her to explain what in the hell was going on.
As she got herself together, she sat up. Placing her feet on the ground and praying she could even form the words to tell him. When he pushed again to why she came out here. She blurted it out. She was pregnant! His eyes grew wide with confusion and horror. The only thing he could ask was it his? Her response was that she wasn't sure. The three test said she was pregnant but she hadn't met with her obgyn yet. Asking her if Christian was aware and had he known. Allison told him he was on business and she would tell him. Being a father possibly echoed thru his head. What would happen with Stephanie. Now he was certain she would run, especially from this triangle. But, being honest he had to tell her. No lies they both told one another even if it was big they would share everything.
Allison got up to leave. Chris embraced her with a hug and explained that no matter what the outcome was he was there for her. Those two had a history. She had been pregnant once before and it possibly being Chris's again was like deja vu.
Once Allison left and Stephanie came to Chris's for the evening he told her everything that happened. Even that he possibly was the father. Stephanie took it very well. Encouraging Chris to go with Allison, and be there. Regardless if he was the dad or Christian was. She wasn't about to go anywhere. They would handle it when the time came. How much luckier could I get thought Chris. Stephanie was a saint and he was so blessed to have her.
Meanwhile, Carter came out to Ash Harbor. He had a feeling this is where Stephanie came to. How could she wanna hide up here he thought. He was disgusted. Before arriving in Ash Harbor he contacted the police department. He met with detective James & Julianna. Letting them know that Stephanie deleted all social media. Won't answer calls or texts. He made up a great story like he was so in love with her and they had a wonderful past. Truth behold it was not a good past. He was deceitful and made her look like a fool 90 percent of the time. Very verbally abusive and never really knew how to treat a woman.
Once he told them his side of the story they reassured him they would be on the look out for her. As long as she was in no harm or danger they couldn't do anything, but he didn't have to know that!
Christian was coming back into town. He couldn't wait to see Allison. The love he had for her was unbelievable. Being beyond happy to reunite with her again was like a dream that came true.
When he arrived and sat down, Allison had that look on her face indicating it was major. Christian feared they maybe were going to break up. The pain gutted him to even think she would want to.

Allison looked over at Christian with worry in her eyes. His mirrored her exact look. Struggling with the words to tell him the news she took a deep breath and blurted it out.
Did he hear her correctly? Did she say she was pregnant? Grasping her hand he pulled her to him. He had to hold her and comfort her.
The two talking for some time. Looking into each others eyes. When he placed his hand on her tummy her tears flooded her eye lids once again. Christian was a super loving and patient. He was going to be an amazing father. He told her that he had a feeling that this was his baby. Allison still was not sure until she had medical conformation. When Allison told him that Chris wanted to be there as well, he was ok with it. He told her that he would be disappointed because Allison and Christian this was their baby. Holding her a little longer and whispering sweet words just calmed all anxious nerves in her body.
Carter finally tracked down where Stephanie was staying. He decided to show up one morning. Hoping to surprise her he snuck in quietly thru the door.
He heard the shower running so he decided to make himself at home on the couch. Something about Stephanie was she always loved to write. She had a journal going constantly. Low and behold there was one on the table. Looking around a little he snatched it up sitting down to see what little miss runaway had been up to. Maybe there was clues to why she just up and disappeared.
As Carter began reading the inked pages
that Stephanie wrote. He began becoming more and more irate at what his eyes were reading.
"It was amazing, he touched me with love and passion. It didn't matter if it was on his bed or up against the brick wall it turned me on more. His lips on my skin, dragging his fingers over the most sensitive parts of my body. He was like a drug I could overdose on"
"It was amazing, he touched me with love and passion. It didn't matter if it was on his bed or up against the brick wall it turned me on more. His lips on my skin, dragging his fingers over the most sensitive parts of my body. He was like a drug I could overdose on"
Carter was beyond angry. He decided he would be putting an end to this little fuck parade she was up to. She wasn't about to be whoring around town thinking she was free he said under his breath. Carter's mind was chanting ungodly things before he realized her shower was off. Would she be heading down the stairs?
When she told him to leave her alone and to leave he just kept at it even more. Getting closer and closer. His words were laced with anger and spite. The comments he roared just couldn't be more wrong then anything. Telling her she would amount to nothing staying in this hell hole. She needed to stop thinking spreading her legs to some local was ok. She heard enough and when he came in enough reach this time, she pushed him hard enough to cause him to stumble back onto the ground.
Carter landed on the floor, causing a thud. Stephanie was shocked she even had that much force to push a grown man down. When he got up he had anger and rage. He promised her that she hadn't seen the last of him.
Once he left she fell to the ground breathing heavy and wiping her tears ... she frantically called Chris. He was supposed to be meeting Allison an Christian for the results of her pregnancy. When he didn't answer she text him. She was scared and wanted him to come get her.
Meanwhile at the doctors office across town, Chris, Allison and Christian waited patiently to know the results as to who was the father. When the doctor confirmed she was just about 7 weeks pregnant Chris knew he was off the hook. Realizing his phone buzzing & reading the message Stephanie wrote him, he quickly headed out. Leaving Allison & Christian alone.
Taking her to the couch, he comforted her fears. When he suggested she come stay with him, her eyes beamed. He wanted her there. Once the two decided that she could come stay, he told her that he wasn't the father. She smiled, nuzzling his stubble and kissing him once more. His kisses were addicting. She craved more.
So the weeks went by. Chris invited friends for some fun out at the farm. Target practicing and food. They all cut up and had a great time. Chris loved showing off Stephanie. The girls in the group just adored her.
Allison was feeling some morning sickness and she missed her sister. Shayna had been on a month long trip with new boyfriend Val. She hadn't told her about her pregnancy yet. That was something she needed to tell her in person. Not through a text or on the phone. Shayna & Allison were all they had left. There dad left when they were real young and Darcy their mother died about 11 years ago. Sitting there she waited for Shayna once she heard her car pull up. Sipping on her tea, she felt flutters in her belly. It still was so new but she loved every minute of it.
