I don't owe the characters of Scarlett O'Hara, Rhett Butler and the characters in Gone With the Wind but I do owe this story-well part of it.

(A/N Thanks for your sweet reviews, they make my day. As for spell/grammar errors I will try to do better, when I hurry too much I seem to turn to my native language; Danish and some errors I don't know so please just point them out)

Chapter two

Upstairs in her room Scarlett paced the floor "Damn the day I met Rhett Butler, he used me like he uses Belle. But I will get my revenge."

Touching her abdomen she smiled, a smile Rhett would have recognized as her planning a plot smile.

Downstairs Rhett was curious about Scarlett's statement of Ashley, luck was with him, the next day he accidentally ran into Mrs. Wilkes. Before Melly knew what happen, she had invited The Butler's to supper the same evening. Both she and Rhett were pleased with the invitation. Melly for seeing Scarlett and Bonnie and Rhett for his chance seeing his wife interacting with Mr. Wilkes.

Later when Rhett returned he went straight to the parlour where Scarlett and Bonnie were. As usually he took a good time to greed his beloved daughter, who as always was happy to see him, he gave Scarlett a quick peek at her cheek.

Rhett looked intensely at Scarlett "Mrs. Wilkes has invited you to supper with your worthy Mr. Wilkes today my pet. Of course your dear husband and daughter will accompany you on this quest."

His expression was unreadable to Scarlett, but she felt his stare burning her, she glared angrily at him. "Go to hell Rhett, at least Ashley is not a cad" Why did he always had to mention Ashley? Scarlett hated it more than ever, each time he did she was reminded of her confusion.

"No just a coward" Rhett mumbled under his breath fuelling Scarlett's anger, she threw what she had in her hand at him. Too late she remembered it was a pillow. With a spiteful laugher Rhett left her alone.

Scarlett's mood hadn't become better when they arrived at the Wilkes. She put on a pleasant face when Melly answered the door fooling Melly, Ashley and Beau. But she was furious at Rhett, either glaring angrily at him or ignoring him. Rhett watched his wife closely all night, he was bewildered, Scarlett's attention was not on Ashley but on Melly and the children. She ignored him but he was used to that when Ashley was around his wife.

"She has changed" he more then once thought but he couldn't put his finger on what was changed and she changing haden't made her any nicer to him.

Scarlett was mad at Rhett

"I won't play his game pretending to be a happy family. I'm bored as hell. When did Ashley become an old man clinging to the past? I will think at it tomorrow".

"I need to go away for a while Scarlett and unfortunately I can't take Bonnie with me." He needed to get some air away from his wife or he would go mad. Scarlett joyful smile hurt him more then he would admit.

"Don't worry we will be having the time of our lives Rhett" with these words, she turned and left Rhett alone. Scarlett was pleased,

"Now I don't have to worry that he will know my secret, I hope he will stay away for ever."

The next day when Scarlett awoke Rhett had left without leavinga note with his destinations, "Never mind I don't care" Scarlett thought.

Days went by Scarlett's abdomen was now to big to hide so she stayed in the house or in the garden with Bonnie. What once had sounded terrible boring and dreadful to Scarlett was now a pleasure; being a mother. "Why didn't I see what a wonderful little person Bonnie is? It was Rhett's fault, he wouldn't have me near his precious daughter".

When the days turned into months Scarlett was a little worry for Rhett, no word had come, "Perhaps I was wrong not telling him about the baby", Scarlett didn't linger on this thought. Besides she was never wrong and it must be because of her condition she almost missed Rhett, just a tiny bit.

"He can be pleasant company when he wants". Scarlett didn't give it a thought what she would do when the baby had been born, as always she didn't think beyond the next day or considered how her choices would effect other people. She was still the county belle.

"Only a month then you will be here baby" Scarlett lay in bed talking to her unborn child, when her door swung wide open.

"Still in bed my pet, not chasing money or Ashley today. Has age caught you?" Rhett's voice was malicious and his eyes burned with mock and seemed blacker then ever. Scarlett was caught by surprise, she gathered herself quickly,

"I will just have to use your money then Rhett."

"I'm sure you will, the very reason why you became Mrs. Butler"

When Scarlett made no effort to get out of bed Rhett removed her covers in one smooth movement. Looking at her form Rhett freeze in an awkward movement, taking in his very pregnant wife.

"What the hell is this Scarlett?"

She had never seen him so angry, "I- I'm with child"

"Well thanks for telling me, I would never have guessed. How did that happen? What have you done?" There was anger but she also thought she detected fear in his eyes. Suddenly she wasn't so proud of herself anymore,

"What do you mean-how did it happen?" she said in a small voice.

"Well, we don't share a bed Mrs Butler" the last was said in a malicious tone, he almost spitted out the words "Mrs. Butler".

"Well perhaps you were to drunk to remember, but I do remember one night when you forced me to your bed." she spitted back at him, her fear of his reaction had turned into anger. He always boiled her temper.

"Damn you for keeping this from me Scarlett, my own baby. You surely don't have a heart" Rhett stormed out of her room and the house.

"That went well" Scarlett chuckled refusing to admit her wrongness in the situation, "He will live with it". But there was unshed tears in her eyes. She was not proud of herself anymore, this child didn't only belong to her, and she knew how fond Rhett was of his children. Suddenly she felt all alone.
