"So what have you found interesting recently?" the interviewer asked, to which Stevie let out a husky laugh
"I'm going, sorrrry I can't answer that" she once again laughed, Lindsey was sitting across the room watching her, out of shot from camera, he didn't know how much alcohol she had consumed but he knew she left being sober a good few hours ago
"What are you interested in now? Give two examples"
Stevie chuckled and thought for a second before telling the interviewer that it was too personal, Lindsey didn't really know why that question would be too personal but he guessed she might tell him soon if he asked, after all for the past three months they had started up an affair, it was tricky because Lindsey was with Carol Ann and Stevie was with Don, he couldn't stand Don and hated the thought of him touching the woman he loved
After leaving the interview he walked over to the couch and sat down next to Carol, they were being offered pot from every direction, Lindsey declining on the fact that Carol Ann was pregnant, even though she tried to take some, he told her she needed to think about the baby, rolling her eyes she sighed and said 'fine whatever'
"Don't be like that, that stuff could harm them"
"Yeah okay Lindsey you made your point, now please shut up okay?" Stevie walked in and cringed at the sight in front of her, but gave Lindsey a small smile in sympathy for how he was just spoken too
He watched as she stumbled over to the drinks table and helped herself to another glass, Lindsey got up and stood at the side of her, whispering
"Honey don't you think you've had enough? We go on stage soon" he rubbed her arm and she shrugged it off
"The last time I checked Lindsey, you weren't my father and you certainly aren't my husband" this stung him as he had asked multiple times in the past for her to marry him but it was never the right time for her
"Steph I didn't mean anything I was just..."
"Just fuck off back to your girlfriend and your baby okay? And leave me alone to do what I want" Stevie viciously spat
"Sorry" Lindsey hung his head and instead of walking back to the couch he walked out of the door, he seemed to be good at pissing people off recently

The show went well but Lindsey couldn't help but feel like something was bothering Stevie, especially during Gold Dust Woman, she looked distant, and almost as if she was about to cry, added to the fact she looked like she had snorted more than a normal amount of coke, he was worried, she would fight him, but he needed to find out what was wrong
waiting until everyone had left after the show he made his way to her dressing room, sighing relief when he knocked and found she was still there
"Hi"
"Hi, look about earlier Lindsey, I'm sorry, you didn't deserve that"
"Thank you, but Steph please talk to me, what is wrong?" Stevie looked around not meeting his eyes
"Nothing is wrong Lindsey, I'm fine"
"Look me in the eye and tell me that"
"I'm fine" She did but he knew that she was lying
"Somehow I don't believe you"
"I don't care what you believe, your nothing to do with me anymore"
"Stevie we've been making love for the past three months does that mean nothing?"
"We've been fucking Lindsey that's it" She knew deep down that that's not all it was at all, she loves him more than anything in the world
"That's seriously all it is to you?"
"Yep, nothing more"
Stevie walked over to the dresser, took a small bag from down the front of her dress and emptied the contents on the side, cutting it and creating perfect little lines she bent down to breath it up but before she could Lindsey placed his hand over it and brushed it all off
"STOP THIS NOW!"
"What the fuck you useless idiot, do you know how fucking expensive that shit is?" she attempted to collect any remaining powder and put it together
"Do you see yourself? Your so desperate you would collect bits off the floor, what is the matter Stevie?" She pushed him as hard as she could
"NOTHING! Just get out of my face" Stevie started crying and Lindsey took her face in his hands
"Stephanie, please baby, what's wrong with you" Stevie looked into his eyes before speaking
"I'm pregnant Lindsey"
The look of shock on Lindsey's face soon turned into a smile, he pulled back and placed his hands on Stevie's stomach
"Seriously?" Stevie nodded
"Oh my god, Stevie I'm so happy, oh this is what we always wanted..." Lindsey was beaming
"Li..."
"Stevie we're having a baby! I'm going to be a dad" a few tears of happiness escaped his eyes, he was rambling on again when Stevie interrupted and then watched his face fall when she spoke
"Linds...it's not yours..."
