A few hours later..
"Oh God!" Rebecca says loudly as she climbs out of her bed and runs to the bathroom. Rebecca is sick to her stomach once again, which wakes Julian up.
"Dear Lord..this is going to be a long pregnancy." Julian says to himself as he rises out of bed and goes into the bathroom.
"Dear, are you ok?" Julian asks in between Rebecca throwing up.
When Rebecca doesn't answer, and gets sick again Julian pulls out a washcloth from underneath the sink, and dampens it with warm water. Finally when Rebecca finishes being sick and goes back into their room and lays in bed, Julian comes out with the wash cloth and lays it on her head, then gets back in bed, and puts his arms around her.
"This is going to be a long pregnancy Rebecca." Says Julian, chuckling a little.
"I know." Said Rebecca calmly as she rolled over to face him.
"Ew, I think I need to brush my teeth now." Said Rebecca as she remembered that she had just thrown up. The comment made Julian laugh, and Rebecca got up to brush her teeth.
While Rebecca was in the bathroom Pilar came into the room. "Mr. Crane, breakfast is ready if you and Ms. Hotchkiss would like to join the others. There's oatmeal, fresh fruit, and waffles."
"Oh God, not again!" Rebecca screamed as she lunged for the toilet.
"Oh, Pilar!! Please, PLEASE don't mention anything about food in front of Rebecca!!" said Julian, rushing into the bathroom again.
"What, why?!" said Pilar as she followed Julian into the bathroom, where Rebecca was still sick.
"Rebecca is...is. very ill at the moment, she has the flu. Any mention of food or anything makes her throw up." Said Julian as he grabbed Rebecca's hair out of her face.
"Oh I see! Does she need a doctor or medicine or anything Mr. Crane?!" said Pilar, feeling panicked about Ms. Hotchkiss' situation.
"No, Pilar. Thank you. She'll be fine." Said Julian, trying to keep both Pilar and Rebecca calm.
"Ok. Well, I'm going back downstairs now. If you need anything just call." Said Pilar, leaving the room. "Good God, she almost found out." Said Julian to himself as he held Rebecca's hair back and helped her get up.
"You can't let anyone find out yet Julian." Said Rebecca, almost as a threat.
"Come on dear, letsgo back to bed." Said Julian, trying to ignore her last comment. Julian pulled the covers back for Rebecca and helped her into bed, then got in bed on the other side of her.
"How are we going to tell everyone Julian?" Rebecca said sadly, almost in tears again.
"Now, now, Becky, don't cry. We'll think of a way, and if people don't like it, too bad for them. We're engaged and we're in love and they can't do anything about it so they're just going to have to deal with the fact that you're pregnant. Now go back to sleep dear." Julian said as he rubbed Rebecca's back until she fell back to sleep.
When Rebecca finally did fall asleep Julian slipped downstairs for some breakfast.
"Oh God!" Rebecca says loudly as she climbs out of her bed and runs to the bathroom. Rebecca is sick to her stomach once again, which wakes Julian up.
"Dear Lord..this is going to be a long pregnancy." Julian says to himself as he rises out of bed and goes into the bathroom.
