My Love, Lee Pace

Chapter Eightteen-The Car!!

Today Lee comes home for the weekend. And I have a dress fitting. Which is exciting. Three days ago I found out I was pregnant. Then I found out I was pregnant with twins. Lee is going to love it!

Lee>me: my flight lands at 3

Me>Lee: okay. I have a dress fitting today.

Lee>me: have fun :)

I smiled and went out to my car, and drove to the dress place. It was around 12:30 pm.

"Gwen! Sweetie! Come! Come!" The sales lady said as I walked in. "Any luck?" She whispered. Carolann is the only other person that knows we've been trying for a baby. She also knows that I am married.

"Well." I smiled. "Yeah. I'm having twins." I smiled.

"Congrats!" She hugged me tight. "How far are you?"

"5 weeks. I'll be about 3 months when the wedding comes." I smiled.

"Wow. Did you pick out your dress?" She asked, pulling me into the back.

"Yes." I said, finding the picture, and showing her it.

"Oh. Number 2! Let's go get it." She said, going to look for the dress herself. Moments later she came back with a white slightly poofy wedding dress.

"Let's go try it on." She pulled me into a dressing room. I pulled off my clothes and she helped me into it. "Oh! Perfect!" She clapped her hands together. I turned and looked at myself in the mirror.

"Lee is going to love it!" I smiled, blinking back the tears.

After a minute, she helped out. Then we got all the details set with my next and last fitting. After all that, I went to get lunch! I got a small salad and a soda. I quickly ate and then went to Marie's. I haven't been there in a long time.

"Gwen!" She exclaimed, walking out from the back room.

"Marie! I have some news for you! And an invite." I smiled, giving her a hug.

"You better have news! I haven't seen you in over a month!" She said.

"Well, here's this." I said, handing her an invite.

"You're inviting me to your wedding?" She asked reading the invitation.

"Of course! Why wouldn't I?!" I smiled. She released me from our hug.

"I don't really know why." She shrugged.

"Oh. I also have something important to tell you." I said, pulling an ultrasound out of my purse.

"What is it?"

I placed the ultrasound on the counter. She picked it up and looked at it.

"Gwen!" She exclaimed and hugged me again. "How long?" She asked, handing me the ultrasound. I took it and put it back in my bag.

"About 5 weeks." I smiled.

"Does your man know? You know, I still have to meet him." She smiled.

"He doesn't know yet. I'm picking him up from the airport when I leave here."

"Where did the Mr. go off to?"

"He's filming a TV show." I smiled. "He gets to come home for the weekend."

"Well, come on by!" She smiled.

"I will." I said, grabbing some gender neutral paints, like some pastel yellows and light grays. "I'm sure he'd love to meet you." I smiled, placing the paints on the counter.
