A week later Theresa's room Gwen walks in with flowers and she is beaming from ear to ear.
"Good morning Theresa. Look at your baby bump, you look fantastic." Gwen says happily
"I'm still a little upset that Whitney and Chad are leaving but bed rest has really helped! My baby is doing very well." Theresa says
"They will be back Theresa it's hard to leave Harmony and then stay away." Gwen says
"I like the way you think. Noah is over the moon about being a daddy he texts me constantly." Theresa says
"I couldn't be happier for you two." Gwen says
"Gwen, you are looking very happy." Theresa says placing her hand on her bump.
"Things are looking up for me." Gwen says
"I'm glad to hear." Theresa says as they hug gently
"I have a surprise for you." Gwen says
"I can't wait to hear it." Theresa says as Gwen hands her an envelope Theresa opens it up and pulls out a tiny sheet of laminated paper. Theresa sees an ultrasound picture
"Is this what I think it is?" Theresa says smiling
"It is, I am pregnant!" Gwen says
"Oh my God Gwen that is so amazing!" Theresa says
"I know I can't believe it. Fox and I just came from the exam it's been confirmed he called his sister Fancy to help come up with the nursery arrangement in the new house ." Gwen says
"I didn't even think of that we are probably going to have to add an addition onto the house." Theresa says
"It's going to be amazing. I never thought that this was possible." Gwen says
"All it took was some time. I knew your body would heal." Theresa says with tears in her eyes
"I can't thank you enough." Gwen says
"Me, I didn't get you pregnant, Fox did that." Theresa says as they share a laugh
"What I mean is your support, and your understanding helped me through it. If we were still at each other's throats I never would've been able to heal properly both physically and emotionally." Gwen says
"Well I couldn't be happier for you both." Theresa says
"First Whitney, then you, and now me. There's going to be a lot of babies coming soon." Gwen says
"They say good things happen in three's." Theresa says
"Do you know when you're getting out of here?" Gwen asks
"Hopefully, if all goes well today or tomorrow. The last tests show the baby and I are fine." Theresa says as a voice comes from the door to her room.
"That's good to hear Theresa." Alistair says
"Alistair, you came home." Theresa says
"I did, when I heard you were in the hospital I knew I had to come and see you." Alistair says
"That's very sweet of you Alistair." Theresa says
"It's not like me I know but when I heard that you took a bullet for Noah Bennett like you saved me from the bookcase. You keep proving to me how much of an asset you are to me and the company." Alistair says seeing the ultrasound in Theresa's hand. "So is this the little one?" He asks
"Actually." Theresa says looking towards Gwen
"It's mine, I just found out last night I am going to have a baby." Gwen says
"That's excellent! So I am looking at my great grandchild." Alistair says
"That's right." Gwen says
"A future heir." Alistair says as he glances at Theresa knowing he can't say anything yet.
"I'm still wrapping my head around the whole thing." Gwen says
"We this calls for a celebration. I spoke to the nurses and they are positive you will be released in a few hours. I want to have a party for the four excuse me six of you. Tomorrow night at Chateau Harmony. I will invite the town" Alistair says
"That sounds wonderful." Theresa says
"Yes it sounds lovely." Gwen says a little uneasy
"What's wrong Gwen?" Theresa asks
"Alistair don't take this the wrong way but normally when you throw party. How should I say this, dark things happen." Gwen says as Alistair laughs out loud.
"I admire your honesty but no this is just a celebration! Will you both attend?" Alistair asks
"I would love to." Theresa says
"Absolutely, and thank you Alistair." Gwen says
"Wonderful, when you get back to the mansion there will be dresses for you both to choose from and the ones you don't use are yours to keep." Alistair says
"Thank you." Gwen says
"That's so generous of you." Theresa says
"I take care of my own. Well I am going to make the arrangements for the party. See you then." Alistair says and leaves
"Can you believe that?" Gwen asks
"No I can't but I am going to just go with it." Theresa says
"I'm with you." Gwen says as the nurse comes in
"Theresa, how are you feeling?" The nurse says
"Still sore but I feel great." Theresa says
"Do you know when she'll be released?" Gwen asks
"That's why I am here you are going to be discharged today." The nurse says
"That's great." Gwen says
"Are you going to drive her home?" The nurse asks
"Yes she is." Theresa says before Gwen can answer
"Alright I am going to get your discharge papers and you can get ready to go." The nurse says and leaves
"It looks like the boys are going to have to help us move into the house." Gwen says
"Somehow I don't think they will complain." Theresa says
"It looks like we need to get ready for a party!" Gwen says
"I know Alistair said it's just a party but we should tread lightly." Theresa says
"I agree nothing is going to jeopardize my pregnancy." Gwen says
"I will make sure of it." Theresa says as the nurse comes back.
"Alright Theresa here are the discharge forms. Do you have any questions?" The nurse asks
"Just one the baby is he or she still alright?" Theresa asks
"I will have the doctor run an ultrasound if that's alright." The nurse says
"Of course, I just have to call the baby's father." Theresa says
"I'll call him for you." Gwen says as she calls Noah.
"I'll page the doctor." The nurse says
A short time later, Noah, and the doctor are in the room.
"I'm going to call Fox and let you guys have some privacy." Gwen says
"Thank you Gwen." Noah says with a smile as she leaves
"Alright let's take a look and see." The doctor gets the ultrasound read and the blurry image appears on the screen. "There is your baby." The doctor says printing out a picture and handing it to them, he takes out the chart as the nurse finishes running Theresa's blood pressure. "Your blood pressure is still high but that's to be expected with what you've been through. As long as you keep calm you shouldn't have any more trouble." The doctor says
"What kind of trouble? Dr. Ferguson" Noah asks
"Sometimes high blood pressure in pregnant women can cause a miscarriage. Although I see from her history that from her last pregnancy she suffer from preeclampsia but as long as you are monitored everything should be just fine." Dr. Ferguson says
"Thank you Dr. Ferguson." Theresa says as the doctor goes to leave and Noah follows him
"Doctor if Theresa gets upset is there a chance she may lose the baby?" Noah asks
"There is a chance but I don't want to tell her that. Do whatever you can to keep her calm." Dr. Ferguson says almost whispering.
"I understand doctor. Thank you." Noah says as Dr. Ferguson leaves. Theresa is up getting dressed and they smile at each other.
