Chapter 8
Salem
Mimi and Chloe were spending all their time together. Shawn was rarely home and when he was he never wanted to talk. They didn't understand what was going on with him. They needed him right now and he was pulling away. Mimi was preparing to give birth she was staying at Craig and Nancy's.
Chloe: Thank god mom is at that seminar this week. We can't have her finding out the details of Mimi's pregnancy.
Craig: I know she would flip out and that would do no one any good.
Mimi: How soon till I have this baby Craig.
Craig: Any day now Mimi. Where is Shawn I thought he was helping you through this?
Chloe: He meet some girl named Anna and now we never see him.
Craig: I thought you said he was in love with that girl that just went home.
Mimi: He is just a jerk he used Belle and moved on. He promised her that he wouldn't move on without her. And what does he do the first girl he meets he runs to.
Shawn was standing at the door listening to every word that was being said. He knew he should be angry but he was more hurt than anything. Shawn knew he was kidding himself to think that Anna could ever take Belle's place but he didn't know what else to do. He was so miserable and he wanted to take his mind off of things. And being around
Mimi and Chloe was a constant reminder of the love that they had all lost.
What Shawn feared the most was how attached Anna was getting it was like dating Cynthia all over again. He knew it was his fault for leading her own. He was just terrified at how attached she was. What if Belle did come back? Then what was he going to do.
Shawn was lost in his thoughts when he suddenly heard screaming from the other room. He ran in there to see Mimi screaming with Craig and Chloe standing over her. They saw Shawn.
Chloe: We think she is having the baby.
Mimi: It feels so weird. I feel something moving around inside of me.
Craig: This is going to be a weird birth. Come lay down on the couch.
Chloe: Doesn't she need to be in the hospital?
Craig: I have all my stuff here so I can help her. Besides, we don't know what is going to happen. I've never delivered an alien baby before.
Shawn: What can I do to help?
Craig: Hold Mimi's hand and try to keep her calm. Chloe, go upstairs and get some blankets and towels. Mimi is going to have a baby today.

Belle was eating the food that Brady had fixed for her. Philip was at the hospital getting more treatments. Brady was sitting beside Belle.
Belle: I wish this baby would hurry up and be born. I want to go back to Shawn.
Brady: I know you do. It will be here before you know it.
Belle: I still feel bad that you are having to take care of me.
Brady: Belle, I know you have been depressed lately. I wish I could take your pain away.
Belle: The only way my pain will go away is to be back in Shawn's arms. I miss him so much.
Brady: I know you do. It won't be long now. You only have a few weeks left until this baby is born.
Belle: I can't wait.
Brady: Any ideas for names yet?
Belle: I don't know.
Brady placed his hands on Belle's stomach. He could feel the baby moving. Belle's stomach suddenly turned a light pink color.
Brady: You are going to have a girl. Your stomach is pink.
Belle: I just wished Shawn could be here to experience this with me. I miss him.
Brady: I know how you feel. Just keep telling yourself that it won't be long now until we are on our way back down there.
