Chapter 7: Feel loved
A/N: In the previous chapter I said that I wasn't going to update a new chapter until Tuesday but I couldn't stop thinking this chapter, so I decided to write it last night at one o'clock in the morning. Thank you so much for your reviews. They are very encouraging in writing this story. In the previous chapter we saw the reaction of the twins and Rose finally seeing that they love her despite a new baby coming. How will the months pass for the Carson family? Will Elsie manage to give birth to an alive and healthy baby? Let's find out in this chapter. I hope you like it.
Disclaimer: Any situation or character that appears in the drama isn't mine.
The days were passing but not so quickly as they wanted to. Elsie was getting bored being all day, every day in bed but she knew that it was for her and the baby's good. The girls had lunch with her every other day while the other days they had dinner with her. They did their homework and study for the school as quickly as they could, so they could spend time with their mother. Sometimes they asked their parents' help about something they didn't understand in their homework or studies.
Charles had gone to buy them some books for their age and some books for Elsie to spend her time. Sometimes the girls read to their mother and in the end she fell asleep. They would help Anna with the chores she had to do and slowly started learning things about Anna's work and their mother's work. They had an interested in cooking as well and Beryl would teach them something simple whenever she had free time.
They had learnt quickly to be careful with their mother as her emotions could change in a minute. In one moment she was happy and laughing while the other moment she was sad and crying. The times they caught her crying, they started reading to her or cuddle with her so she would calm down. Charles was going everything he could to make his wife happy. He was the first one to witness the sudden changes in her emotions as a day they were talking about the baby and suddenly she got upset, started shouting at him and ended up crying in his arms.
Anna would go to ask for her opinion, her advice about the work or other things. She would inform her about what was happening upstairs and downstairs. She would stay with the housekeeper whenever the girls wanted to play with the Crawly girls. Beryl was making sure that she would eat very well and have some things in store for her cravings. She would go visit her whenever she could, telling her about how well the girls were doing in the cooking lessons with her.
Elsie noticed that she was getting bigger with each week that passed and found that she was very fat than other women. She had witnessed Cora's pregnancy with Edith and Sybil and she discovered that she was bigger than Cora was with her two daughters. She was in the seventh month now and she was waiting for the time to come to give birth so she could get up from that bed and hold her baby in her arms. She had noticed that she and Charles hadn't made love for more than a month and was thinking that he didn't want to because she was too fat and ugly.
Charles didn't have a lot of work to do and he decided to spend a little time with his wife as their daughters were playing with the Crawly girls and later they had cooking lessons with their aunt. He took a tray with tea, two cups and a plate filled with her favourite biscuits and made his way to their room. He had also placed a red rose on the tray to show her his love. As he entered the bedroom and closed the door, he was surprised to find her crying. He put the tray on her night stand and sat beside her on the bed. "Elsie? What's wrong love?", he was worried now.
She didn't answer him but continued to cry. He took her hands from her face and held them in his own. After a few moments she raised her head to look at him. "I don't know, Charles. My emotions are a mess since I discovered I was pregnant. I'm getting bigger with each week that pass and we haven't… you haven't… I'm caring your child but I still want your caresses, Charles.", she took her hands and put her on her faces as she started crying once more.
Now he understood the reason she was crying and getting herself so upset. He wanted so much to show her his love, to make love to her but with her emotions being a mess he didn't want to do something that would hurt or upset her. He took her hands from her face and held them in his own while he lifted her head to look at him. "Elsie, I want very much to show you how much I love you and make love to you.", he kissed her hands before looking at her once more.
"Then why you are pushing me away? It's because I'm fat and not beautiful anymore.", she was getting hysterical now as her emotions was a mess once more.
"Oh no, Elsie! You are not fat and you are more beautiful than ever, my love. Our child is growing inside you and that makes your stomach to get big. Since you got pregnant you are even more beautiful, my love. You are beautiful, Elsie.", he kissed her softly on the lips. "I didn't show you how much I love you by making love to you because I didn't want to do something to hurt you or upset you with your emotions being a mess. Of course I want to make love to you, to show you how much you mean to me. You are my life, Elsie.", he leaned forward and started kissing her passionately.
In the beginning she wasn't responding to his kiss but soon found herself craving for more than a simple kiss. She wanted to feel his skin against her own skin. She threw her arms around his neck and deepened the kiss. Charles was sad that he hadn't noticed that before and was going to give anything she wanted. Suddenly, he pulled back from the kiss, got up from the bed and walked towards the door. Elsie thought that he had changed his mind about making love to her and tears started falling from her eyes but heard his steps coming closer to her and saw him standing in front of her with all his love written in his face and especially in his eyes.
He started taking off his clothes. First it was his jacket that landed on the floor, then his shirt fell as well and slowly in the end he was standing in front of her completely naked. She was getting more aroused as she watched his most intimate part twisting and was glad that she was able to still do that to him. He walked towards her with slow steps and got in the bed after throwing in the side the covers. He leaned down and started kissing her passionately as his hands started traveling all over her body until they found the end of her night gown and started pulling it up. She lifted her body up a little her body to help him to take the night gown off from her head and he threw it so it would join his clothes on the carpet.
He started kissing her lips, her cheeks, her neck and when he reached her breasts he gave them special treatment. He started sucking and pulling her nipples and gained a groan of pleasure from his wife. Soon his mouth found her knickers. Slowly his hand solved the two ribbons that were holding them and started pushing them down until they joined the pool of clothes on the carpet. Now they were both naked on their bed. As his mouth made its way up to her lips to kiss her passionately, his hand made its way to her center and started rubbing small circles. That made them both more aroused in an instant as their groans of pleasure were filling the room. He entered two fingers inside her as his mouth never left her mouth. She started moving against his hand but she wanted more, she wanted to fill him inside her. "Please Charles… I need you…", she pleaded him between her groans of pleasure.
He took out his fingers and kissed her passionately as he entered her in a slow long thrust. They stood without moving for a few moments to feel how good it felt being together, being one. He started moving in slow thrusts and she followed him. He had a little difficulty with her big baby bump but he wasn't going to stop from giving her what she wanted. As he sensed that they were nearing their climax he started thrusting faster but not harder because she was pregnant. Soon they found their release and the room filled with the shouting of 'Elsie' and 'Charles'. They stood like that for a few moments to catch their breaths. He lied down beside her, pulled her in his arms and covered them with the covers.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Carson! You knew very well what I needed.", she smiled widely at her husband and kissed him softly on the lips.
"It was my pleasure, Mrs. Carson! You deserved every bit of what happened.", he placed his hand on her baby bump and felt the baby kicking against his hand. "I believe that someone woke up from the sudden activities of it parents.", they laughed and smiled as the baby continued to kick.

A week had pushed already and Charles made sure to take better care of his wife and her needs. He had talked to their daughters to spend more time with their mother because she needed to feel that she was loved. The girls were happy to comply as they had already made plans to spend more time with their mother. They had gone to Ripon with Anna on her half day off, after getting permission from their parents and bought a few books for the baby. They planned to read one of the books when they stayed with their mother.
They didn't have school because their teacher was ill, so they stayed at home. In the morning they helped Anna with the rounds to check the maids and then helped her with the ledgers which helped them to practice their math. After they finished with that they went to help their aunt in the kitchen as it was the day they had lunch with the other servants. Beryl liked it very much to have the girls with her to help her and she had noticed that they were quiet good with the cooking. She had promised them after lunch to teach them to bake their favourite biscuits so afterwards they would take some along with tea to their mother.
In the afternoon Rose and Christine took two small trays with biscuits and tea and the book to read to the baby inside their mother's stomach. Elsie was very happy to have her daughters with them as they told her what they did all day with Anna and their aunt. Charles brought them dinner before going downstairs to serve the family's dinner. After finishing their dinner the two girls put the empty plates on the tray and placed it on the desk. They sat on the bed next to their mother and started reading the book.
Elsie noticed that her back was hurting very much and tried to settle the pillows better behind her. She had a few pains also but rubbed her baby bump to calm it. The girls were laughing happily while reading the book when Elsie let out a scream of pain and leaned forward. The girls looked at their mother worried. "Mama, are you feeling alright?", Rose asked worried her mother and looked at Christine.
Elsie was about to speak when another pain hit her and let out a scream while she leaned forward. "Girls, go get your father.", she was getting worried because she was on the seventh month only and she couldn't be in labor.
The girls looked each other shocked and then at their mother. "But he is in the dining room, mama. We can't disturb them.", Christine said to her mother while she was getting very worried.
Suddenly, Elsie felt something wet between her thighs while she let out another cry and tried to calm down. She was in labor, there was no doubt of that. "Go get him! Quickly!", she shouted at her daughters as she tried to stay calm.
The twins looked each other for a moment with questioning looks and nodded their heads. Christine got out of bed and left the room quickly to go and get her father while Rose started running to go downstairs to inform her aunt. As Christine reached the door that was leading to the dining room she saw Thomas looking at her worried. "What happened, Christine?", he was curious about seeing the girl running.
"Something is wrong with mama. I need to get papa, Thomas.", she said as she was trying to catch her breath.
Thomas stood there still for a few moments looking at the girl with a worried expression and quickly returned to the dining room. Charles was confused and surprised when Thomas returned quickly to the room with empty hands. "What's going on, Thomas. Why you returned so quickly and with empty hands?", he asked the young man with anger when he came to stand next to him.
"I'm very sorry for that, Mr. Carson but I met Christine outside and she told me that something is wrong with Mrs. Carson. She had run all the way to come here.", he informed the butler.
Charles looked at the young man for a moment without moving or saying anything. He left the dining room in a hurry to find his daughter still outside the room. "What happened, Christine?", he asked his daughter trying to stay calm in front of her.
"We were reading to her one of the books we bought for the baby when she let out a scream of pain. She told us to come and get you.", she explained to her father while the fear of losing her mother started rising inside her.
"Alright, let's go.", they started running up the stairs to the bedroom.
"Thomas, what's going on?", Robert asked the young man with confusion.
"It's Mrs. Carson, Milord. Apparently, something is wrong.", he informed the family and saw how their faces changed in expressions of shock and worry.
"I'll send for the doctor.", Robert said as he stood up and left the room quickly. Cora stood up as well to go upstairs to see what was happening while Violet stayed with her granddaughters trying to reassure them that everything was going to be fine.

Charles upon hearing his wife's cries started running faster and entered the room while Christine followed him. He found Beryl in one side of the bed trying to calm his wife while Rose was standing in the other side of the bed looking worried at her mother. "Elsie, what's wrong?", he walked to take Beryl's placed and held her hand.
"The baby is coming, Charles.", she said worried as she was taking deep breaths. "It's too early, Charles.", she was crying now which didn't seem to help at all.
"Everything is going to be fine, my love.", he placed one of the softest kisses on her forehead. He turned to look at their daughters and saw them standing at the end of the bed with tears falling from their eyes. "Beryl, please take the girls to their room and stay with them.", he was feeling bad that they had to witness all these and he wanted to be with them but until the doctor arrived he wasn't going to leave Elsie's side.
Beryl nodded at the butler, took the girls to their room and stayed with them while they cried in her arms. The doctor arrived as soon as he could and found Charles and Cora in the room trying to calm the housekeeper. He asked Charles to leave the room despite Elsie's protest but asked Cora if she could stay. She reassured the butler that she would be at his wife's side all the time and walked to Elsie's side. He placed a soft kiss on her lips, nodded his head in thanks to Cora and left the room while his wife's cries were hurting him.
