Part 3

Carrie awoke from he rest aghast. She was drenched in sweat.

"Why was I dreaming of Mike? I was kissing him and… it was him! He was the one I kissed! I have to talk to him." She got up from her bed just as the door bell rang. Carrie opened the door and there stood Mike. Stunned she says, "Mike, I was just.."

"Carrie, I have to talk to you," he interrupted, " Can I come in?" Sure Mike, have a seat. I need to talk to you too."

"Let me start, Carrie. You have meant the world to me. I would do everything possible for you, even stand by you marrying someone else. I t breaks my heart seeing you with Austin. I have loved you for two years, now. I can’t go on living this lie anymore. I’m sorry if you hate me or don’t even want to hear this, but I just had to tell you. I just can’t concentrate on anything anymore. You are my life, my dreams, and my thoughts. You control me. Carrie, what I am trying to tell you is that you are the married woman. I love you."

Carrie looked at him starry-eyed. Her eyes were locked to his. Mike began to wonder if she had heard anything that he had said. "Carrie, I…"

She stopped his words with a kiss more passionate than the one before. She knew then that he was her soul mate. The kiss confirmed the doubts she had been plagued with. She wasn’t in love with Austin, it was Mike.

" Mike, it’s you," she sighed, " I love you. How could I have been so naïve? I have made such a drastic mistake in marrying Austin. You should have told me sooner. I should have….It could have been…"

Mike placed his hands over her lips. " Don’t talk, Carrie. Just hold me and never let me go."

"Follow me." Carrie replied. With those word they moved back to the bedroom forgetting the rest of the world and Austin.

"What the hell is going?" Kate screamed. "Austin, get off her! Sami, pack up your things and get out of here. While you’re at it, put some clothes on." Kate was furious.

"Mom, don’t talk to Sami like that. Carrie doesn’t want me, so I came to someone who does," Austin cried.

The color in Kate’s face became unseen. Her head fell back as she crumbled becoming one with the floor.

"Austin, what do we do? What if Kate tells Carrie? We’ll never be able to get our child then. I should have never slept with Lucas. If I hadn’t, Will wouldn’t have been the only child I could have. I should have listened to the doctors. I couldn’t handle it. I was too young."

"Sami, it’s ok. We’ll get through this. My mom won’t tell Carrie. She loves me and wants me to be happy. I will get Carrie pregnant so we can finish our plan and then we will be together for the rest of our lives. I will make sure of that."
