Evan sat on the toilet lid while Scarlett changed his bandage. "I still wish you would have called me about this, I would have come to the hospital. I know that you would have done the same for me."

He reached up and held her hand after she placed the new bandage on and looked at her "I know I would have, but after all that you had been through, I didn't want you to get worried. I was worried enough for the both of us."

"What bothers me still, is that you still hid it from me, and then I scared that poor kid who delivered our pizza last night, he kept looking at me strange and here it was because of all the blood on my face."

"I wasn't hiding it, I was just waiting for the right time to tell you, first you had friends over, and then you were hungry, I didn't want to make you sick before we ate or while we were eating. So I wanted to wait until we went to bed to show you."

She sat down on his lap and wrapped her arm around him, resting her head on top of his, while caressing his face. "I guess you're forgiven, just don't hide shit like that from me again. We're in this together now, and I do have something to tell you too."

She lifted her head when he tilted his head back, and gave him a kiss on the lips. "What do you have to tell me?" He asked curiously, hoping that it was something good for once.

"Well, let me make you some breakfast, and I'll explain while I'm making it. The bathroom isn't where I'd like to be hanging out right now." She giggled.

Evan sat at the table while she dug for a pan, then grabbed some eggs and milk and began scrambling some eggs. She then grabbed some sausage links out of the freezer and began frying them, hoping that what she's about to tell him he won't freak out being that he wasn't with her.

"Coco and I went to talk to Malachi yesterday." She says tightening her eyes up, waiting for the yelling to begin.

Evan quietly stood up and walked into the kitchen breathing deeply through his nose while pouring himself some coffee "You did what?" He asked surprised.

"I went and talked with Malachi."

"Without me." He said sounding upset, he leaned his back against the counter, sipping on the hot coffee, and looked at her. Waiting for her to say something, when she paused.

"Calm down, it turned out to be a good thing." She looked at him while flipping the links around. "He's going to let me quit, and knows that the contract is void."

"He gave up that easy."

She nodded her head and poured the scrambled eggs into the pan "Well not exactly, he had me read the contract that I had signed, I threw it at him and said I quit after I scanned through it."

"You should have let me come with you, and let me see that thing that you signed."

She walked over to him, taking the coffee out of his hands and set it down. She pulled him to her and smiled "Don't worry, I got him convinced to let me train someone for that night. That's why I had Coco over yesterday, we were training the other girl."

"Did you tell him that you're pregnant?"

"I did, and that's when he gave in."

She then preceded to explain their conversation and how he will make her work that night if Bambi can't be trained. Food was done and made his plate for him. "I don't trust him, someone like that doesn't give up to easy."

"Well he did." She smiled, sitting down next to him to eat.

He dug his fork into his eggs, he didn't trust Malachi and felt he had other agendas for her. "I think he will be OK, Bambi did really well yesterday. I promised to work with her everyday for the next two weeks."
