Chapter 3
Rhett couldn't believe his ears, Scarlett pregnant. Why now he had to go home, he also realized that he couldn't leave her, he wouldn't leave her. He was going to be a father again, he couldn't wait, another little girl, oh how he longed for another little girl. What if it was a boy? That would be nice too; they'd call him Rhett Jr. "You said you saw her, how does she look? Is she feeling all right?"
"Well, Mr. Butler, she fainted while I was there and the doctor who came to see her put her on bed-rest. But your mother and sister seemed to be taking very good care of her. She looked very pale to me, but then again I've never meet her before, sir. So I wouldn't know what color she is normally"
A number of things were running though his mind at this point. 'Could the miscarriage have anything to do about her being so ill? What if this killed her and the baby was never born? I don't know if I could live with myself if that happened.'
"Thank you, I think I'll be on my way home now. Thank you again for coming so quickly. Here, take this." Rhett handed his lawyer a wad of the money and left for the train back to Charleston. He didn't know if he could stand the long train ride home. He couldn't wait to get back. A baby! Scarlett's giving me another baby!
Um. .. I wasn't really planning killing off Scarlett, but thinks for the idea………. Just kidding! I'd never ever, ever, ever, ever do that, well at least not in this story. I know I don't like short chapters either. So I'm adding another chapter today too.
