Eddie couldn't stop thinking about Paige and his unborn baby. As he sat in his study, he wondered if Paige would ever come back. He knew that she would but, in the back of his mind he had fears that she would see a more fulfilling life then her own and run off. Its not like she hasn't done that before when they were engaged the first time around.
Meanwhile in America with her parents, she was comforted by her mother and the fact that she was about to be a mother. She took Paige by surprise as she turned the table and started talking about Eddie.
"So why isn't Eddie here? I am surprised he let that baby out of his sight." She said lightheartedly.
"Well, he doesn't exactly know."
"Know about the baby or that you're here with me? Or both?"
"He knows about the baby, it's a long story for a later time. What he doesn't know is that, I am not in Sangu like I stormed off saying. I told Seron- you remember Eddie's assistant- to book me a flight to Sangu, but when I got there I was only thinking of seeing you so I changed the ticket."
"Now why in the world would you do that? What if Eddie flies to Sangu to find you and you are nowhere to be found? He's going to think you're hurt or something."
At this moment Paige knew that her mother's prediction was probably right. She knew that she had to call him. But, then again if he really loves her he'll read and understand the note. And he'll know exactly what to do. Or he might not even go up to their room, and not find the note. Her heart was racing now. What if he has already left for Sangu? What if he is looking for her there? She slammed the door and ran to the phone in her old bedroom. Dialed Seron quickly, it rang for what feels like hours. Finally, a professionally soft voice answered.
"Mother of her majesty how may I help you?"
"Seron? It's me."
"PAIGE DEAR GOD WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? (he cleared his throat) I mean, your majesty where is your current location?"
"That is not necessary at this moment Seron. Where is Eddie? I NEED to speak with him. It's an emergency."
"One moment please your majesty he is in his study. In fact he has not left his study since you left."
She heard whispering, and the old hickory door open quickly. There was a shuffling noise through the speaker as Seron gave the phone to Eddie.
"Paige?" Eddie said with great worry.
"Hi Eddie."
He paused with a sigh. "Are you alright? Did the flight go ok to Sangu?"
"I am fine, our baby is fine. And I didn't go to Sangu."
"What do you mean you didn't go to Sangu?"
"It doesn't matter Eddie, I just wanted to let you know I am ok and that I'm sorry."
"Paige you have nothing to be sorry about I should have never left your side and been more communoca-"
She cut him off. "Eddie I can't take being away from you." She said beginning to wipe away tears from her face.
"Baby don't cry. Please don't cry."
"Will you come get me?"
"Of course I'll be there before you know it. But first you're going to have to tell me where you are." He said with a chuckle.
"Read the note and you'll know exactly where to go. I love you so much Edvard." She hung up the phone before he had the chance to answer.
Eddie ran to their bedroom leaving Seron puzzled at his study door. He found the note right where she left it on the nightstand. It read:
Love of my life,
My actions are only temporary. No matter what I said I love you to the moon and back. Or to where the marbles and tractors meet to a brawl and lead to our first kiss.
Love always,
Paige and baby
He now knew exactly where to go. He and Seron grabbed the jet and flew to America like their lives depended on it. Which to Eddie, it did. Once they arrived, Eddie knew exactly what to say and how to say it. He and Seron raced to her family's barn, and Eddie ran through the now pouring rain to find Paige. In a ball on the floor wrapped in blankets with her head on a pillow of hay. He walked down to her and got on his knees. All that he had planned to say meant nothing now.
"paige?" He whispered.
"Eddie!" She said sleepily. As she stood up her shirt caught the top of her baby bump exposing it to Eddie.
"You're showing… when did that happen?"
"Right before I left I saw it the mirror as you held me up. Our baby is the size of a peach. Did you know?"
"No I didn't. How about we get you and our little peach inside?" He leaned in close for a long and slow kiss resting his hand on her stomach.
"There's an apartment upstairs it's warm and we don't have to walk through the rain."
"Sounds perfect." Eddie said as he motioned for Seron to bring his bag.
"You brought a bag? Don't you have to get back soon?"
"Not if you don't want to leave for a while. I go where you go."
Paige gave a soft smile, this was right. Eddie helped her up the stairs and opened the door to a cute little room about the size of a dorm.
"Throwback huh?" She said with a laugh.
They stayed at Paige's parents house for about two days and headed back to Denmark. Paige threw up the entire ride home.
"You're sure you're ok?" Eddie asked for the hundredth time.
"Eddie I am fine, I should be over this in a couple of weeks.
In those couple of weeks Paige's baby bump began to grow bigger and faster than before. Just in time to find out the sex of the baby. Boy or Girl, they both voted opposites.
Lets take a poll… Who wants a girl and give a name if you want, and the same for a boy. Ready? Set? REVIEWS!
