After Stephanie's announcement that she was pregnant they sat in silence. Stephanie did not know what to say to make things right, she didn't know if there was anything she could say to make it right.
About five minutes passed before Paul turned to face her, "what did you say to me before?"
She wiped the tears from her eyes, "I said I'm pregnant."
He rubbed his face, "how long have you known?"
"I've suspected about three days but only known for certain one."
"How many people know that you're pregnant?"
She sighed, "what's with the Spanish inquisition?"
"I just want to know everything and how many people knew my wife was pregnant before me that's all, is that too hard?"
"No, of course it isn't. Only two people other than you know I'm pregnant, Marissa and a lady I got talking too earlier."
Paul went over and grabbed his coat, "I can't deal with this, I need a walk."
"Paul it's nearly 1am, where will you go?"
He shrugged, "don't know, anywhere, I just need fresh air."
"When will you be back?"
He picked up his room key, "I don't know, don't wait up."
He walked out of the door slamming it behind him.
Although it was 1am Stephanie decided that Marissa needed to know the damage that she had done so she dialled her number when Shane picked up, "what? It's early"
"Shane it's Steph, put Marissa on."
Shane sat up, "what's wrong?"
"Shut up and put Marissa on."
Shane sighed and shook Marissa gently, "Steph wants to talk to you."
Marissa got out of bed and took the phone off of Shane and went into the hallway, "what are you doing calling this early Steph? It's 4am."
"Well it's 1am here Rissa and my husband has just walked out of the door leaving me with no answers. Anyway you called me like an hour ago so don't complain."
Marissa scratched her head, "what are you going on about Stephanie? Why has Paul walked out on you?"
"Oh I don't know, maybe you calling and getting on my back about telling him about the baby and him overhearing part of the conversation and assuming I was cheating on him and then once I said I was pregnant he said he needed fresh air and walked out. Thanks Rissa, thanks a lot."
"Stephanie I did not do anything wrong, I was working in your best interests."
"Yeah well that wasn't really in my best interests for my husband to walk out on me was it Rissa? Thanks."
Stephanie hung up on her not wanting to talk to her anymore.
Marissa hung up the phone in the bedroom and Shane said, "what did Steph want this early?"
She shook her head, "don't worry, it's nothing that you need to worry about."
Marissa was hoping that Paul would come to his senses and come back soon.
Meanwhile somewhere in Vancouver Paul was walking trying to clear his head but all he could think of were the two words that Stephanie had said to him earlier 'I'm pregnant'. It now made sense to him why she was asking so many questions about children but he still couldn't get used to the idea and he was still upset and angry about it all so he just sat down on a nearby bench to just think things over.
Back in the hotel room 3am quickly approached and he still wasn't back and Stephanie still had not had any sleep. She was so upset, all she could think of was the fact that he seemed so angry and the way he walked out on her. Eventually she cried herself to sleep bbecause he still had not returned.
At about 8am Paul made his way to the set of Blade, he hadn't slept a wink all night but he had to work.
When he got on the set everyone was looking at him, he knew he must look really bad as he hadn't slept so he just went to his trailer to grab a shower and to freshen up.
When he came out of the shower Wesley was sat in his trailer, "jeez man they were right, you do look like crap. What happened?"
Paul just ignored him and started to have a shave but Wesley wouldn't leave it, "Paul talk to me, you look really bad and this attitude won't go down well on set."
Paul stopped shaving and looked at Wesley, "she's pregnant."
Wesley scratched his head, "who's pregnant?"
"Stephanie, my wife."
Wesley was shocked, "I thought you said she wasn't pregnant."
Paul nodded, "that's what we thought first off, that's what we told by the Doctor first time around and now she's telling me that she's being sick and she's pregnant."
"So why are you so sad and you look like crap?"
"I don't know what to think or what to feel about this, everything is so hectic and confusing and our jobs are so busy so I've been out walking all night."
"So where is Stephanie? How is she about this?"
Paul shrugged, "at the hotel I think, I haven't seen or spoken to her since I left at 1am."
Wesley was stunned, "so you haven't seen her since 1am? You're going to call her and let her know you're alright though."
Paul shook his head, "nah, I'll just see her tonight when I get back."
Wesley shook his head, "call her, please for me."
Paul started getting angry, "just back off Wesley, you don't know anything so leave me alone."
Wesley just stood up shaking his head and walked out.
