"You're fighting a tummy bug? I don't think tummy bugs keep coming back like yours does," Holly set her phone down after reading Demi's latest instagram post who was laying in her hotel bed refusing to move.
"When are you gonna tell him?" Holly chewed on her bottom lip to keep from going on about Wilmer's special surprise. Demi had been in tears all morning because he was in Europe but his schedule didn't allow him to come and spend thanksgiving with her like she wanted him to. Today was tough just like every thanksgiving ever had been and it was even harder this year because her family wasn't with her and all she had was her team. She loved everyone who worked for and with her but she wanted her mom and her dad and her sisters and her man. She loved touring but lately it had been more of a hassle than a hobby and she just wanted to go home.
"A few months ago I was sitting in my doctor's office and he told me that I could never have children and now I'm three months pregnant in a foreign country with a boyfriend who doesn't have time to visit me. How do I explain that?" Her and Wilmer had really been working on building their relationship since that dreadful day in her doctor's office when it was revealed to her that one of her biggest dreams would never come true.
During the few weeks that she had spent prepping for her world tour, she had experienced terrible stomach cramps that she had credited to her period being on it's way or her body adjusting to her hardcore workouts. She had gotten away with pushing through the pain until she had collapsed during rehearsal and Wilmer had practically dragged her to the doctor's office. Her doctor had explained to her that her pelvis was inflamed because of her last miscarriage, making it difficult for her to be able to get pregnant. He had declared her as infertile and said that it would be unhealthy for her to continue to try to get pregnant only to be met with the same result every single time.
It wasn't like her and Wilmer had been trying for a baby, especially since they had learned that she wouldn't be able to have one. They had just been...not using protection. What was the point when the chances of her getting pregnant were slim to none...or at least they had been.
"You tell him that your doctor was wrong and you now have a baby inside of your stomach. It's really not that hard," Holly had a way of making everything seem so simple but this was not simple. She wanted a baby but right now? In the middle of her first world tour while she's trying to work on her fifth album and she has all of these endorsements and products out? Right now when she's at the peak of her career and everything seems to be going great in her life and she's never been happier? Right now when her and Wilmer are finally learning to spend proper time with each other and being more open in public and on the verge of an engagement? She could not possibly be having a baby right now. If God really wanted to bless her and Wilmer with a child, why didn't he let her keep the one that she had been pregnant with in the summer?
"You're questioning this and making it ten times more difficult than it actually is. Wilmer will be by your side and we will figure this out, whether that means postponing the tour and just working on your album or whatever it is, Demi. We will work this out but the first step is telling Wilmer," Holly placed her hand on Demi's kneecap and she nodded her head before sinking back into the pillows. No matter how simple Holly made it seem, it would never be that easy. Nothing with her ever is.
Wilmer could feel himself falling asleep in the lobby of the hotel as he waited for Holly to come down and get him. He planned to be there earlier but his travel plans had gotten messed up and now it was eleven o clock and Demi's concert was over and she was asleep and he was just now getting there. He felt terrible for not making it there on time to be with her even if she had said that she understood that he was working and they needed to get used to not always being around each other. That didn't mean a thing to him. He missed his beautiful girlfriend more than anything in the entire world and wanted nothing more than to have her in his arms.
