House of wax II. - Own museum

10. Let's make a happy-end!

Don't get confused by the title, the story is not over yet! O:)

Bo
I hung up. F*cking psychologist. Calls at the worst time. Great. Now Lisa's gone, probably just running to Vincent. I sighed. I f*cked up – I almost had her. We kissed. It was the best feeling I've ever felt. Now I lost her. Do I even have a reason to live?

Lisabeth
„I have this news for you. I hope it won't make you upset or so. I was in a hospital this morning and... I am pregnant!" Vincent was staring at me for a while. Was he happy? I couldn't tell. He took a paper with his trembling hand and wrote something on it.

With me, I suppose? Well, Beth, that is fantasthic, indeed!
I never thought of this, you know, that this could actually happen!
You are making me the happiest man on Earth, do you realize that?
What gender it is? Girl or boy? Or both? Gosh, aren't they siamese?!

„Shh, Vincent, calm down!" I kissed his trembling hand and hugged him. So he is happy! I smiled and continued: „Of course with you! Whom else with? You make me the happiest woman on the whole planet, don't you see that? And it's too soon to find out, but when I'll go to the next checkup, you'll have to go with me!"

He happily nodded. „Alrigh-!" The rest of the day we spent in bed, cuddling.

We lived happy and busy life. We were preparing the Easter exhibition and made millions of eggs and bunnies, each of them original and we even auctioned some. Sometimes I felt a bit nausea, because of the pregnancy, but I was fine overall. I even made myself to call my old best friend Jody. She swore to come as soon as she can, but she was very busy at work and already had four children. Wow.

I and Vincent were looking for a house, so the child would have spaceenough. We found a perfect one, few mins from LA. Huge bedroom, 2 extra rooms, huge living room, 3 bathrooms, two floors, swimming pool, big garden – perfection. Vincent once left somewhere alone and came back with a mysterious announcement. Something big is about to happen in June. I was so curious!
Nothing interesting happend, till I had one of those weird pregnancy moods and I got this crazy idea. Vincent left somewhere – because of the secret and I had a week to do my job. I wanted to go back to Ambrose. And... put all thecorpses away. Burry them all. Of course with Joe's help. Since the moment I found out the truth, I was afraid, that someone would find the city, inform police and they would find Vincent.

So, on 7th of June, I took taxi to airport and went to Ambrose. I was in the fourth month, so my belly was becoming bigger and bigger, and I found it pretty cool. Anyway, I came to Ambrose. Joe wasn't home yet, so I started. I took a crowbar and went to each of the building and pulled the corpses/figurines out of those buildings. I finished one side of the main street, there were around 15 wax corpses out the houses. I was so exhausted and sad, because I even recognized few people. I sat down and cried. I was crying till I heard a car and saw Joe coming towards me.

„Hey Lisabeth. It's nice seeing ya again. Wha' happened?"

„It's alright, Jo. How are you doing?"

„I'm good, good. I eat properly, work.... Who pulled the wax figurines out?"

„I did. I need your help, actually. You think, you could come here with some truck, take them and throw them out at the meadow? There we need to dig a huge hole and burry them.

„We even got en excavator here."

„That'sawesome!"

„Go home, rest. You look tired. I'mma do it."

„Alright, thanks. But you don't have to do it all. I'll cook something, k?"

„M-kay!"Great, I smiled at Joe. He is such a naive and nice person.

And that's how we continued next days. During the day, I was pulling corpses out of houses and then made dinner. We were almost done, but I wasn't feeling very good. I was hungry, but when I tried to eat something, it was hard to keep it inside. I was exhausted, but I couldn't really sleep. I was a bit worried, but I knew I had to finish my job. Last days I spent on a couch and Joe finally filled up the hole. Or mass grave. I felt sick, but Vincent was about to come back and we were supposed to meet in hospital, to check on the baby in my belly. I thanked to Jo and travelled back.

I took a taxi, that brought me to the hospital. I didn't see Vincent there, but I went directly to the room. I knocked, the nurse opened the door and I passed out.

„Ms. Abrahams?"

„Lisabe-h."I opened my eyes as I heard Vincent's voice. They told me, that I was unconscious for 2 days. However, the baby is fine. It was hungry, but they took good care. Oh and it's not just one baby. I-We are going to have twins. Not conjoined. Vincent was clearly very happy. He took me home, to the museum, so I could rest. He still did not tell me what he did past week.

„Wha-were you doing? Doctors said, you were very exhaus-ed." I looked at him inquiringly. He spoke kinda more clearly, I could understand him better.

„I-um, Vincent, I was doing this for our future. I was a bit worried, butit's alright now."

„What is that?"

„I...with Joe's help took care of all the waxed corpses in Ambrose." Eventhough he was wearing mask I saw he was shocked.

„You- You did wha-? Are you serious? Be-h! You are carrying children. Ours! You have to be careful!" It was so weird, hearing him to talk that much.

„Vincent, look, I am sorry--"

„Lisabeth, why did no- you tell me? You could hur- yourself or babies. Oh my god. Bo. If he finds out, he will be so an-ry!" Vincent turned round, angrily trembling.

„Shh, Vince. We're gonna be okay. We all will." I carefully walked behind him and touched his shoulders gently. I guess he didn't expect it, cuz he jerked and threw me back on the bed.

„Oh,oh, I'm sorry. Be-h. Sorry. I want to tell you about my little secret, but I am so nervous." I watched him shockedly. He has the mask, hair bit shorter, he does the same moves, but he doesn't sound like my Vincent.

„What, what is that then?" He nervously looked at me.

„I...wen- to see a few doctors. Ehm, plastic things you know. I wen- to the plastic surgery. Of course, they couldn'- save me eye, but they did wonders wi-h my face. I mean, I still have some scars, but totally not that bad. I wore -he mask, so I could surprise you, bu-not scare you." I looked at him, with my mouth opened.

„Wow, Vince, Wow. I mean, let me see it! Please!" He nodded and slowly put his mask down. Oh my god! He had an eye patch on his right eye, huge scar from the top of his head to his right cheek and one smaller next to his nose. „You are so beautiful!" I took his 'new face'in my hands and kissed him.

Sorry, that this chapter isn't that long. From now on, I might be updating later than usual, but huge chapters with interesting plots, so be sure you won't miss the birth, wedding or Halloween party... <3
