-The following morning-
Ben had left to run some errands for the gym also to see his client for that morning leaving a note by Sam's bed side to let her know where he had gone and that he would be home in a few hours, this gave Sam time on her own. She still felt pretty awful, perhaps Ben was right maybe it was a bug after all but not the less she pulled out a slim box and a slim stick. She locked the bathroom door as she did so taking the stick out of its box reading the instructions. Before she did the deed and now all she had to do was wait.
She tapped her fingers along the bathroom counter as she waited for the three minutes to be up, three minutes that could change her life completely, when they were up she took a deep breath in, before picking up the stick to see the result. Negative. She let out a huge sigh of a relief, they would have children, when the time was right and the time right now was defiantly.
It was then Sam noticed Ben's note on the bedroom table and she picked it up and began to read.
Morning My Beautiful Fiancée :))
If you awake when I've gone. I've nipped to the gym, got some clients to see and some errands to run, I do hope you're feeling better also Ellie rang while you were asleep, she said for you to ring her as soon as you felt better. As she said it was urgent.
See you later

Sam groaned slightly, she knew she couldn't put off ringing her, but really she didn't want to keep going behind Bens back, all this secrecy was starting to take its toll.
She didn't want Ben to be kept in the dark but that's what Ellie had wanted and there was nothing Sam could do to change her mind. Maybe she should just tell Ben but she knew that was a bad idea.
None the less Sam placed her phone to her ear and rang Ellies number after a few rings, it reached voicemail. Sam left a message after the tone.
'Its Sam, I got your message from Ben last night. I don't think we should keep doing this, keeping it away from him, he is your brother and he will want to support you in every way he can, it's not right keeping something like this away from your family. I know its hard. But you need they're support in this. Ether you tell him or I will.'
Sam then hung up. Maybe it was a stupid thing to leave a voice mail like that but she couldn't understand why Ellie would want to keep something like this from her family. She needed all the support she could get right now and she felt awful for keeping Ben in the dark.
Sam had meant what she had said in Ellie's voicemail. Ether she was going to tell Ben. Or she would.
