Chapter 4
POV: Idina
After a day or two more of not getting my period I went to see if I was pregnant or not. When James was out with Oliver I decided to get the ultrasound. I sat in the waiting room biting my nail. I wasn't ready for another kid. I had a show and I had Walker. "Idina Menzel." A nurse called. I got up and followed her into the room. She got me situated. "The doctor will be in with you shortly." Oh great another wait. I thought. I sat there once again biting my nail. The doctor knocked on the door and walked in. "Ms. Menzel you are here today for a ultra sound correct?" She asked as she looked over the papers.
"Yes."
"Ok, let's get started." She got out a few supplies and puts the gel on my stomach. She looked at the screen as she moved the stick around over my stomach. I held my breath. "Ms. Menzel it looks like you are not pregnant." I let out my breath.
"Thank God."
"Here's a wipe to clean yourself up and you're free to go."
"Thank you."
"No problem." I cleaned the gel off and got up and left. Thank god I wasn't pregnant but how will I tell James. He probably thinks I'm pregnant. This is going to break his heart. As I drove home I thought about how I should tell him.
POV: James
When I got home with Oliver, Idina wasn't there. A few minutes later she came home. "Hey James."
"Hey Dee." I kissed her. She pulled away and looking away from me. "Hey what's wrong?" She pulled me into her room. She took my hands.
"I'm sorry but," she paused.
"But what?"
"I'm not pregnant. I'm sorry"
"What?"
"I'm not pregnant. I don't know why my period isn't coming."
"Dee it's ok."
"I just know you would be upset. I know you want another kids but." Tears were falling down her face. I hugged her. "It's going to be fine. I have a kid I don't need another." I looked at her. She kissed me softly. She left the room. I sighed. Having another kid was a long shot. She's ten years older than me. I went out. Later that night I couldn't sleep. I felt the urge to drink. I kept trying to keep it back but I couldn't hold it much longer. I got up. Idina stirred but she didn't wake up. I grabbed my keys and went out. I got a bottle of whiskey. When I came back I sat on the couch and drank.
POV: Idina
I heard the door close. I laid in bed not bothering to go after him. I waited a good half hour until I heard the door close again. I got up and slowly walked into the room. I saw James on the couch drinking. I walked up behind him. "James?" I said quietly. "How much have you drank?" All I heard was him starting to cry. I sat next to him and cupped his face. "Calm down. It's going to be ok." I hugged him. "We're going to get you help. We're going to fix this."
