Hey thnx for the reviews and constructive critisism.Please R&R :)
Simon was in his room trying to pick the perfect thing to wear for his and Megan's one month anniversary when he heard a knock at his door.
S:Come in. Cecelia walked in.
S:Cecelia, hey.What are you doing here?
C:Well I talked to Megan and she told me that she couldn't go out tonight. She asked if I could tell you.
S:When did you talk to Megan?
C:Oh, umm I saw her downtown.
S:Where?
C:At the promenade.
S:Did she say why?
C:No. But I saw her with this tall guy.I don't want to jump to conclusions, but I'm sure you get it.
S:You're right I shouldn't assume anything.I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation.I'll call her.
C:No! Simon looked at Cecelia with a confused look on his face.
S:Why not?
C:Well, umm, you see...ummm she told me you couldn't call her.
S:Really.And why?
C:Because she wouldn't be home.I think she said she'd be out with that guy she was with.
S:She's probably home now.I'll call her before she goes out.
C:No she's not going to be home.She told me she'd be out all day.
S:Are you sure?
C:Yeah.Since you can't go out anymore do you want to go out to a movie or something?
S:I don't think so.I'll just stay home and see if Megan calls.
C:Come on.She isn't going to call.Please I really want to see Man On Fire.
S:Wellll
C:Please.
S:I guess.But then I'm coming straight home.If she calls I don't want to miss it.
C:She won't, come on.Get drest.
S:Ok I'll meet you downstairs in a few minutes. Cecelia smiled slyly as she left the room.Her plan was working out great.
Lucy and Kevin walked into the kitchen.Annie, as usual, was cooking.
L:Hey mom what's for dinner?
A:Potroast.
L:Sounds good.
A:So where were you two?
L:Oh, just downtown. Lucy and Kevin didn't want to tell their parents just yet.
K:I have to get ready for work.So I'll see you guys tonight.
L:I have some work to finish too so I'll see you at dinner mom.
A:Bye. Lucy and Kevin left.
A:Oh Luce you forgot your purse. (Lucy had already left and didn't hear Annie).
Annie went to go move Lucy's purse off the table but accidentally dropped it.A few things spilt out over the floor.Annie was putting the things back inside when she noticed what they were.There was a pamphlet that said "So You're Going To Be a Mom" and a package of prenatal vitamins.Annie's breath caught in her throat and she stared at what was in front of her.She got up and placed the purse back on the table and brought the pamphlet and vitamins with her into Eric's study.Eric was busy typing up his sermon when Annie entered.
E:Hey. Annie stared at Eric not saying anything.
E:Annie, are you ok?
A:I'm fine.I just wanted to show you what I found in Lucy's purse.
E:You were in Lucy's purse?
A:Not purposely.She forgot it here and as I was moving it I accidentally dropped it and some things spilled out.
E:What "things"? Annie handed Eric the pamphlet and vitamins.Eric's mouth slowly fell open as he stared at the items in front of him.
E:Well we can't be sure these are hers.
A:Come on Eric they were in her purse they're obviously hers.
E:Maybe she's just hanging on to them for a friend, or is using them for school or something.
A:You don't just hold onto these things for a friend.And why would she need these for school, she's becoming a hygenist.
E:So you think she's pregnant?
A:Yes.
E:But her and Kevin aren't ready.She's still in school.
A:Just barely she's graduating at the end of the month.And her and Kevin are just as ready as Mary and Carlos.They've been married longer.
E:Are you going to ask her then?
A:No.She probably wouldn't believe me that they accidentally fell out of her purse.We have to wait until they tell us.
E:Do you think that they're planning on telling us?
A:Well they obviously have to.They can't hide it for long.
E:I can't wait long.
A:Hopefully we won't have to.Well I have to get back to cooking, so act casual when you see her.You can't tell her we know.
E:I won't I won't.
A:I know you, you have a hard time keeping secrets.
E:I promise I'll keep this one.
A:Ok, I'll see you at dinner then. Annie left Eric's office.Just as she reached the kitchen the phone rang.She placed the pamphlet and vitamins down beside Lucy's purse and ran for the phone.It was a friend just seeing how Annie was.Annie hadn't noticed how long her conversation was until the oven timer went off.Saying good bye she went to get dinner out of the oven.
