J" wake up my love,  we are here ".   She opened her eyes and looked out the window and could see the airport coming into view.  Off to the right,  blue ocean waters.  White sandy beaches.  This was more than she could ever imagine.  N" where are we? ".   J" this is a place called myrtos beach, I think its the perfect place for a shoot don't you think? ".   Work?  But she thought it was a getwawy trip?   He could tell she wasn't happy.  J" tell me what troubles you angel? ".    He touched her hand and they got off the plane to claimed their luggage.  N" this is just for work?  I'd that why you brought me? ".   He held her face in his hands and smiled.  J" of course not. Thats part of what we are gonna do here. The other part well...... You will find out soon. ".    N" your so sneaky ".  

They got in the car and drove to the hotel on the beach.  She changed into a pink sun dress and her hat.   Jared was unpacking his clothes and glanced over his shoulder.  J" I made us dinner plans. ".   N" sounds great ".   J" do you want me to cancel our shoot? ".   N" no its fine,  I just wanna relax while we are here ".  J" we will I promise. Its a short one so we will be done quickly ".     He came up behind her and wrapped her tight in his arms.  J" what's wrong? ".   N" I'm upset that my sister isnt here,  she's not here ".   J" you haven't spoken to her since? ".   N" no I reached out and she never returns my calls ".   J" should I try?  ".   N" I don't want you to get involved ".  J" I already am,  I love you I care about how you feel I don't wanna see you upset ".    she turned her head to face him and he cupped her face and kissed her. 

Hours later,   they were at dinner and her phone went off.  It was  Shannon.  What did he want?     N" hello? ".   S " hey its Shannon,  can we talk? ".   She felt her heart drop, fearing something had happens to Julie.  N" yes,  everything ok? ".    S" um that's what I need to talk to you about. Julie is here with me and I know you two haven't spoken for a long time now.  She has cancer,  breast cancer and....... Um".   N" Shannon? Tell me ".    S" she was pregnant with my child and she lost them.  That's what I need to ask you about ".   N" ask me?  Is she ok I can't even begin to imagine her pain and yours,  I miss you both so much,  this breaks my heart. I wish I was there ".  She began to cry and missed her so much.  Jared looked at her clueless why she was upset.  S" they told us that we can't have kids.  So I want to  ask you she doesn't know I'm doing this either.  Will you carry our child? ".   She felt like a train had hit her with force.  This was a lot to deal with.  S" are you there? ".  N" yes,  I don't know what to say? ".    S" take as much time as you need its ok. I'm gonna let you go she's waking up.  I will have her call you later ok ".  N" tell her I love her and I miss her ".  S" I will,  talk to you later ".  N" bye Shannon ".   

J" everything ok? ".  N" yes,  we can talk about it later ".  J" sure that's fine ".   They finished their meal and took a walk on the beach.  J" the shoot is tomorrow ,  I made it for the late afternoon so we can spend the day just relaxing in the beach like teenagers.  ".  N" sounds amazing ".  He came in front of her and held her face.  J" what happened? ".  N" I don't wanna talk about it ".    J" Nina enough!   Tell me ".  N" shannon told me Julie is sick and he asked me to carry their child ".    He stepped back.  J" no you can't ".   N" why not? ".    She couldn't understand why he would say no.    J" I wanna have a baby with you. Our child should cone first ".   N" she's sick damit!  She's my sister.  Could you maybe think about someone but yourself? ".   J" sure,  I just flew you thousand of miles to pardise and asked you to marry me, I planned out everything to make you happy. I put you first and now you wanna make me feel like I'm being selfish? ".   He sat in the sand and she looked out into the sky.  N" im sorry its just a lot to take in right now.  I wanna have a baby with you,  but I have to do this for her. She needs some happiness, she's been through hell. I'm doing this with or without you ".   She left and went back to their room.    She changed and stepped into her nighty. 

A cool breeze whipped in the room,  she turned to see him standing there in the doorway.   J" I'm in,  I will do whatever makes you happy ".   She walked over to him and smiled.  N" I love you so much. I wanna make you happy as well ".  He kissed her and smiled. J" you do,  everyday you make me happy ".
