Into The Unknown

Chapter 50

Abigail's POV

Ryan shot about half a foot off the couch as he woke up "Hey baby are you okay?" I was sat in the chair opposite replying to some promotion emails.

"Are you okay?" He seemed a little dazed "Are the babies okay?"

"Yeah honey the babies are fine..." I was a little confused, my instincts told me he had woke up from a dream.

"But the crash..." his breathing was rapid shit it was a nightmare. I quickly stood up and rushed over to him, I sat beside him.

"Ry there wasn't a crash, you were dreaming" he paused for a few moments and then the penny finally dropped. His body relaxed instantly.

"Oh thank god" he exhaled as he wrapped an arm around me and pulled me in. He kissed the top of my head hard "I love you" he whispered into the hair around my ear.

"I love you too" I return his hug "Hey what time do my Mom and Freya get here?"

We were back at the venue now waiting for the rest of the guys to finish their Dinner.  We had grabbed some food on the way back from the hospital "In about half an hour" Ryan checked his watch "Why what's up?"

"I've had an email from OK magazine, they want to cover the birth of the twins" I could see Ryan's face twist with frustration.

"I thought we talked about this?" He looks mad, I flinch a little as I feel him pull away from me.

"I don't want to argue about this" I sigh, it was only a suggestion.

"Then don't mention it again" Ryan snaps at me before getting up and grabbing his phone off the side "I won't let them become public property Abi, they are my babies too remember"

"Yeah I know that of course I do, it's just I don't think it's a terrible idea" I know instantly what effect my reply will have on him. I can just about see his blood boiling "Just hear me out, please" I stand up and walk closer to him.

"I said no Abi" he pulls the door so hard I thought he was going to rip the handle off and slams it shut behind him. Leroy comes in a few moments after he has gone.

"Are you okay honey?" He asks, I smile and nod.

"Yeah he is just pissed at me for considering letting OK Magazine cover the birth of the twins" I pick up my phone "I need to go and get my things off the bus, I don't have long to get ready before the show"

"You're still going?"

"Yeah course I am, I'm is wife. This is a big show for him, he needs me to be there" Sandra the promoter had stuck around after their meeting. She wanted to hear them in action first before she agreed to work with them. This deal was pretty much the make or break for OneRepublic.

X-x-x

I laughed as Leroy practically flung my suitcase in the couch "Are you sure it's in this one?" He laughs.

"Yep I put it in the one with the pink tag..." I was talking about my outfit for tonight, it was a special maternity outfit that had been sent to me especially by a little boutique in Georgia...a pair of leather look legging and a pale green blouse which was thigh length and fitted around my bump. I pulled out a pair of white Louboutin's to pair with it, I laughed as Leroy pulled out the package marked Clare Marelli...This was he name of the owner, I promised I would tweet a picture of me wearing my outfit and mention her in it...sort of like a sponsor deal.

Leroy waited outside for me to get changed, I put on my outfit curled my hair and applied a minimal amount of make up. I took a quick mirror selfie and tagged ClareMarelliBoutique in a tweet, after tweeting I checked my phone in the hope Ryan had text me but he hadn't...god he was a stubborn ass when he wanted to be. Leroy was sat in the corridor when I went our.  I could hear the music starting up "Have they gone on already?"

"Yeah Ryan told me to tell you to stand stage side with Alice and Marie" Leroy walked beside me and handed me my pass, I put it around my neck and pulled my hair through it "Your Mom and Freya are here"

The music was blasting through the door, but I could still hear the clicking of my heels down the corridor. They were echoing "Did he say anything else?" I wondered curiously "Is he still pissed with me?"

"He didn't say" Leroy seemed to be holding something back.

"But there's something else isn't there?" I push and Leroy nods.

"Owen Creston is covering the event"

"He's here?" Leroy nods regretfully.

I should probably explain that Owen Creston is a snake, the worst kind of reporter possible. He was the guy responsible for a front page scandal story, during the worst moment of my life. In fact any story Nick's Mom wanted to publish...he was the one to do it.

"Is that why Ryan wants me stage side?" I wonder and Leroy nods "Okay" I don't argue, it's obvious Ryan wants to keep me close even though we have had a small disagreement.

We walk out of the door and onto the stage Ryan has already started singing, he is bouncing around in his usual fashion. As I look around I spot Owen standing down at the front of the stage. Leroy leaves me near my Mom and Freya and then hops down tot he front.
