As I finished Adam stopped singing, dammit he must have heard me I thought biting my bottom lip. I knocked on the door as I heard a voice say come in. I pushed open the door and saw Adam sitting on a stool, he looked distracted his face all screwed up like he was thinking hard. "Hey Joel how's he doing?" I asked the producer. "Oh hey Lola, hard to say he's just so distracted its difficult to get him to sing the song." I sighed I knew he was worrying about me he didn't need to I was fine, in fact more than fine. I waved at Tommy through the screen as he nudged Adam with his elbow.
Adams eyes shot to Tommy as he pointed to me through the window. Adam got off the stool so quickly he almost fell off, Joel said "take 5" into the microphone as Adam and Tommy came out. Tommy ran over to Lydia kissing her and they sat on the sofa. Adam came running out picked my up and spun me around. I started to get dizzy as my stomach lurched. Adam put me down as the room kept spinning, I fought back the need to throw up. "Hey babe how are you feeling?" he said looking me in the eyes. "Fine thanks even with you giving me whiplash" I lied forcing a smile. "How's the recording going?" I asked him sitting down. He sat next to me "its sort of kind of not.." he said hanging his head. " I cant concentrate all I've done is think about you all day" he said.
I lifted up his face and looked him straight in the eyes, he looked so worried I had to tell him. I took his hands and stood up "Walk with me Adam I have something I need to tell you". I said smiling at Lydia , she smiled and mouthed you can do it. I lead Adam down the hall and stopped by a big window overlooking LA I let go of Adams hand and walked over to the window. I stared out my hands on my stomach, Adams arms came round my waist placing his hands on mine. "Baby please tell me" he said. I took a deep breath and turned to look at him "Promise you wont be mad" my brown eyes looking into his blue ones. "Of course not baby, I couldn't ever be mad at you" he took my hands and smiled.
"Ok here goes" I sighed. I sat on the chair Adam next to me, I placed my hands on his lap. "Baby I know why I keep being sick now, its nothing too bad so please don't worry. Im late Adam by 2 weeks." I pulled the test out of my bag and handed it to him. He took it and looked, his eyes darting from the test to me. "Adam im pregnant, I know that its not the best time and that it will probably wreck your career. But im not getting rid of it, this is our baby Adam and I hope you can accept that" I said. Adam just stared blankly at the test not saying anything.
"Adam say something please" I said looking over to him. I could tell he was shocked and I didn't blame him I stood up and went to leave. Adam grabbed my hand and looked up at me his eyes full of tears, "Lola don't go, why would I want you to get rid of our baby I can still have a career with a baby I mean Tommy is managing fine" he said tears sliding down his cheeks he stood up and picked me up in his arms spinning me around again I felt a wave of sickness coming over me. "Adam put me down unless you want to be covered in my sick.." I said. He pulled a face and set me down on the floor, "sorry baby" he said kissing me and putting his hands on my stomach.
"That's our son or daughter in there baby" I said putting my hands over his and smiling. He took me hand as we headed back to the studio, we opened the door to find Lydia wrapped in Tommys arms. "Sooooo did you tell him?" she asked me. "Erm yea I did" I said smiling at her. "So dude you're going to be a dad then" Tommy said going up to Adam and giving him a man hug. "Sorry I had to tell him" Lydia said apologetically. "Its fine" I replied, I looked round at Adam "go on then you go record your song, make it good baby I'll be listening" I said as I winked at him kissing his cheek as he walked back into the room.
He pulled on his headphones as the music started, he started to sing his voice sounded like that of an angel. I found myself singing quietly along with him, with my hands resting on my stomach. I loved this baby already, I knew he or she would be well looked after. Hours passed as Adam finished recording his song, "we just need a name for it now" I heard him say to Tommy. Lydia has since gone to the toilet as I remembered what Lydia said about the name. "I have an idea" I piped up, Adams looked at me "how about Better Than I Know Myself?" I said. "That is an awesome name how did you think of that?" Joel asked. "Well Lydia came up with it.." I replied.
The name was chosen and Adam had finished for the day, Tommy and Lydia left 10 minutes ago they took my car. Adam was chatting with Joel as I sat watching them, Adam came over to me and held out his hand. "Lets get you home baby" I took his hand as I stood up. We walked out the door and into the dreaded elevator as it shot down to the ground floor. It was dark now, I looked at the clock it was 11pm I felt so tired as I climbed into Adams car. We arrived back home at around half 11, I was so tired I could barely get out of the car. Adam scooped me up in bridal style and carried my up to bed. My head hit the pillow and I fell straight asleep, still dressed and in my shoes.
