-1Christine woke up the next morning, feeling Bo holding her hand. She looked and saw that he had fallen asleep with his head next to her on the bed.
Christine: Bo?
She said quietly trying to wake him up. Bo opened his eyes and was so happy to see she was awake now.
Bo: You're up. How are you feeling?
Christine: Better than I have been.
She looked around confused.
Christine: Where am I? Bo what happened?
Bo: You passed out last night. You were having pains and I brought you here.
Christine sat up scared and worried.
Christine: The baby? Bo what about the baby?
Bo: Shh calm down.
He pointed to one of the monitors.
Bo: See there's our baby, the baby's doing fine.
Christine: Where's Claire and Jesse?
Bo: Luke brought them to Uncle Jesse's to stay the night. They're fine.
Christine looked at Bo.
Christine: Last thing I remember is us having a huge fight.
Bo looked down ashamed at himself because he was the reason for the fight.
Bo: I am so sorry that I started the fight. I didn't mean to.
He had tears running down his cheeks and Christine wiped them.
Christine: Bo what's wrong?
Bo: It was my fault. You were under a lot of stress because of me. If anything happened to you or the baby it would've been all my fault.
Christine: Bo don't blame yourself. I should've been taking it easy instead of getting mad at you as it is.
After a few days Christine was allowed to go home. And after a couple of weeks she was back to working at the Boar's Nest with Daisy.
Daisy: Should you really be working all these hours, I mean in your condition and all?
Christine: Yea the doctor told me that it's the best thing I could do actually.
Daisy: I just thought that Bo said you were having problems with the pregnancy.
Christine: The doctor said there might be problems but I asked him about work and he said as long as I take it easy I should be able to continue working.
Daisy: So how are things between you and Bo?
Christine: You want the truth?
Daisy: Yes of course.
Christine: Honestly, I don't know.
Daisy: What do you mean?
Christine: I mean he hardly talks to me. Very quiet and distant. Don't get me wrong he's great with the kids, he picks Claire up from school and plays with Jesse and Claire all the time. But with me, I don't know he just seems really distant. Daisy I don't know what's going on with him.
Daisy: You know next time he comes in I'll try to talk to him.
Christine: Thanks Daisy. Since Luke went back to New York, Bo hardly talks to anyone but the kids, you, and Uncle Jesse. Daisy do you mind if I leave work early. I think I wanna go home and relax.
Daisy: No of course not. You go right ahead and get all the rest you need. If I were you I'd take off until after the baby was born.
Christine: No I'll be back tomorrow. We kinda…well I really need to work all the time I can.
Daisy: But you have money from Bo's racing don't you?
Christine: Between buying this house and all the fixing up we did with it. And the two kids with the new baby on the way, well….all of Bo's money is gone just about. So I gotta work to get the money.
Daisy: Does Bo know about this.
Christine: No I didn't feel like I could add this to all the problems he has already.
Not long after Christine left to go home, Bo walked into the Boar's Nest. Daisy went over to him.
Daisy: Bo is everything alright at home?
Bo: Let me guess, she told you that we're having problems didn't she.
Daisy: Well she did tell me that you've been ignoring her and becoming distant for awhile.
Bo nodded.
Bo: Yea I know I have been doing those things.
Daisy: Bo what's wrong.
He shrugged his shoulders.
Bo: Daisy, I think I made a mistake.
Daisy looked at him.
Daisy: How big of a mistake.
Bo: Oh you can say quite a big mistake.
