Pillow Talk

Final Answer - A

Early the next morning, Jamie and Eddie checked out of their hotel and headed for Cambridge. It had been years since Jamie had been there and he had to admit the town had good and bad memories for him. They stayed in a hotel a few blocks from Harvard yard.

Eddie could barely keep her eyes open, "You tired, baby?" Jamie asked. "What if you take a nap and rest and I'll go out and make reservations for tonight. Tonight...We celebrate our little one and a new relationship, that I will make sure is the best one either of us has ever had."

Eddie smiled and kissed Jamie's cheek, "Thank you. I just hope that we aren't getting too excited. We don't know for sure..."

"What it is, it is," Jamie soothed. "Let's just be happy. Rest now. I'll be back and ready by 5 okay?"

Eddie smiled her reply, set the alarm on her phone, and stretched out falling asleep the moment her head hit the pillow.

Jamie returned to the room at 4:30, Eddie was finishing getting ready. She was nervous they would miss the reservation with Jamie's late arrival but he assured her he had it under control.

As Jamie stepped out of the bathroom, fully dressed and ready, Eddie asked, "Are you sure you want to go to this expense. We are going to have a lot..."

"But of course," he said as he gave her a kiss and grabbed his jacket from the bed.

"Wow, he looks really handsome tonight" she thought, "the blue in that shirt matches his eyes."

"I thought after we ate dinner we could go for a walk through Harvard yard," suggested Jamie. "Unless you'd rather go someplace else."

"No, that sounds really nice. I'm not sure what I want for dinner yet, but a walk with you is always nice," replied Eddie as she slipped her shoes on.

"She gets more beautiful everyday," thought Jamie as he watched her, "I can't believe how much I love her." "Great, are we ready to go celebrate, my dear?" he asked as he stood up and pulled her close.

"Yeah, let me make one last trip to the bathroom and I'll be all set," said Eddie. She kissed him again and went down the hall.

"Jamie!"

"Eddie!" Jamie hurried to the bathroom and pushed the door open. "Are you all right? Did you fall?"

"I'm bleeding," Eddie replied through tears. "I'm bleeding a lot."

Jamie helped Eddie get her clothing back on and helped her to the car, their celebration meal forgotten as he sped toward Massachusetts General.

Eddie cried the whole way to the hospital.

"I don't know what's wrong," she sobbed. "I'm scared."

"I know, my love, I'm scared, too," said Jamie as he held her hand tight. "But let's get you checked out and see if we have anything to be scared about."

"What do you mean 'if we have anything to be scared about'!?" cried Eddie, "I'm pregnant, I'm bleeding and I'm scared!" She didn't mean to yell at him, but fear had taken control and she couldn't help it.

"I mean maybe this isn't as bad as we think, maybe this is common and we just don't know because we've never been through it before," said Jamie, hoping to calm Eddie down a little.

"I don't think so. I've just got a really bad feeling about this."

The ER wasn't too crowded that night, so they didn't have to wait very long before being called back. The nurse asked Eddie a ton of questions, making note of each answer on a form attached to her chart.
