Joshua POV
I wake up and see Colleen is not in bed. I sit up and look over at the bathroom and the door is open so she isn't in there. I look over at her bedside table and her phone is gone. That means she is gone. I look at my watch and see its 9:30 am. She doesn't need to be on set until noon. No body knows about the cancer except for Kory, and more and more staff have found out about the baby as she is just over the first trimester. I stand up and grab my phone and text her. No response. I text Kory. Kory writes back immediately. SHE IS AT THE DOCTOR. THOUGHT YOU KNEW? he writes. Anger boils inside of me. IS SHE OK? I ask. YES he writes back. TELL HER I AM COMING AND TO WAIT THERE. I grab some clothes and go down to the car. I drive over to doctors office and see her sitting with Kory on the bench beside the front door. She looks upset and all my anger settles down and concern sets in. "Colleen?" I say sitting beside her as Kory gets up and walks away giving us space. I wrap my arms around her. "Why did you come here without me?" I ask her. "You are never happy when you take me here" she says looking at me. "Colleen I care about you" I say instantly feeling bad. She nods. "Why are you crying?" I ask. "Its stage 2" she says. "Colleen you are only 4 months sweetheart. Please no" I cry rubbing her belly. "This is what I mean" she says standing up. I stand up beside her and hold her. "Colleen am I supposed to be happy?" I ask sarcastically. "Of course not. But instead of just hugging me you want to tell me to abort the pregnancy. It isn't what I need to hear" she says crying. "Okay sweetheart" I say hugging her tight. She grabs onto my shirt and buries her face into me. I kiss the top of her head sobbing. I see Kory watching from a far and motion for him to come over to us. He walks right to us and we sandwich hug her. "Colleen we just want to keep you with us" Kory says. For the first time I see how much Colleen means to Kory. His face is devastation.
We all go to the set. This is her last week before going home. Because of all her time off , production got delayed. My sister is living in our house while we are gone and she is happier than ever with Adam. I stare at Colleen as she talks to the other actors and she sees me. I can't wait to get her home. This Canada trip has been over extended for her and enough is enough. She walks towards me as she watches me. I stand up to meet her and she falls into my arms. "I love you" she says sweetly. "Feeling is mutual sweetheart " I respond with tears in my eyes.
