"Ok Kim Ann we are inserting the fertilized egg" the doctor talked her through the procedure. Kim Ann looked at Jessi and Howie who were holding her hands and she winked at them. She had done alot of soul seraching the past month and she knew that god had presented her with an opportunity to make her best friends' lives change. She had just moved into a house beside Howie and Jessi and she was settling in nicely. Skylar was to return that day from her trip to see her parents. The twins didn't understand why they had to move and Nick didn't. He came over every day to see the twins but he wouldn't talk to Kim Ann. Jane had called her the afternoon that Nick threw her out of the house and told her that she was no longer welcome in their house and that if Kim Ann dared to try to keep Nick and his family away from the twins that she would take Kim Ann to court. It saddened Kim Ann that things had to end the way they did. She missed Nick and spent many a night crying for him. Molly and Alex were the only thing that kept her alive. She knew that there would never be another man in her life for she was in love with Nick and only Nick.

"Daddy why aren't you living with us? Aiden says that you and momma are splitting up like Auntie Sky and Uncle Kev..why are you daddy? Did momma do something bad?" Alex and Nick were playing soccer in the backyard of the house.

"Buddy, oh buddy I don't know why your momma and I are fighting." Nick looked at his son and started to cry.

Kevin smiled at the beautiful woman who stood in his doorway "God Sky you look great"

"Thanks Kev, you do too" Skylar walked into the houseand hugged her husband. "God it has been so long since I have felt your arms around me"

Kevin held her tight and then pulled away "Sky we need to talk. We can't just start back up, it is not fair to either one of us, or the kids"

"Kevin I have spent the last 2 months doing nothing but thinking of you. I miss you"

"Sky I love you..but we need to go to counselling and we need to start fresh. We need to work on what made us get into trouble. I don't want to be married. Technically we are married but I want to date, court and fall in love all over again." Kevin kissed her hand and smiled. "Are you okay with taking things really slow?"

Skylar answered him with a kiss.

"Are you okay? Not too sore are you?" Howie and Jessi got Kim Ann comfortable in the spare bedroom. They had just got home from the hospital and they were under strict orders to make sure that Kim Ann rested for the next 48 hours.

”I am fine, thanks you two, hey don't you two have some celebrating to do? Don't worry about me I will be fine. Nick is keeping the twins overnight so I will just lie here and relax. Now get out of here and go enjoy yourselves." Kim Ann stretched to kiss her two friends and settled into the overstuffed pillows and picked up the People magazine that they had bought for her. She flipped to the middle of the magazine and her voice caught in her throat.

"Backstreet Love Affair is on Ice"

It appears that the love affair between Nick Carter and Kim Ann Hearty, the women who everyone loved to hate, is over. Sources close to the star report that Ms. Hearty has moved out of the house the couple shared. The couple has a set of twins, aged 6 and it is belived that they are sharing joint custody.

"God damn vultures couldn't leave it alone could they?" Kim Ann threw the magazine down and closed her eyes.

"Daddy you and Momma are on this paper" Molly held up the magazine. Nick ripped it out of her hand and groaned when he read it. "How the hell do they find this shit out?" He placed the magazine back in the rack and continued down the cereal aisle.

Kim Ann felt someone in the room. She cautiously opened her eyes and smiled when she saw Kevin sitting in the chair, watching her. "Ehy Kev, what are you doing here?"

"I am watching you. I mean Howie asked me to come and check in on you. How are you feeling?"

"Sore, but happy. Hey isn't Skeelo home..did you talk to her?"

"She is home, she is resting but she is anxious to see you. You are all she talked about."

"And what about my other question?" Kim Ann asked seriously.

"We are going to try it again. We are going to take it slow and not rush anything" Kevin saw her grimace and he ran over to her. "are you okay?"

"Cramp..trust me Kev I have been getting cramps worse than this for 20 years, I can handle this" Kim Ann grinned.

"You are a smart ass you know that" Kevin sat down on the bed "So do I dare ask?"

"He has not said two words to me. Kev I know he doesn't agree with this but you would think he would be civil to me because of the twins"

"Red, the boy is a pain in the ass, you out of eeryone should know that he is a suck. Be strong" Kevin kissed her cheek, pausing long enough to feel her breath on his cheek. "God she smells so good" he thought.

Kim Ann looked up at Kevin with sad eyes and said with a heavy heart "What if I am sick of his shit. What if I don't want to wait anymore. What if I spent 8 years of my life loving the wrong man? What if I thought it was love but it wasn't? I am so scared Kev. I love him so bad it hurts but I am scared that we aren't meant for each other. I am scared of my life without him in it. How can I go on without his laugh, his pout. God how can I go on without his arms surronding me?" Kim Ann fell into Kevin's arms and cried.
