Chapter 8- Big News
January 1920
I had been feeling very under the weather lately. I was surprised... Charles hadn't hurt me at all since his arrival home. To tell the truth everything about him had changed. He seemed to truly care about my well being. Something I'd never thought I would see. This morning I told him I wasn't feeling well. He made an appointment with the doctor. Again... this doctor was nothing like the one human being I truly longed to see. Dr. Cullen. My personal angel.
I sighed at the moment I was at the doctors office waiting for the results of my many tests. There were a few other people in the waiting room. Some with sick children, others with their spouses. I looked down at my feet and folded my arms letting my thoughts take up the time. Before I knew it there was a nurse standing over me. “Mrs. Evenson?” she zei my name. I looked up at her curiously. “The doctor would like to see u again. Just for a few moments,” she told me. She was smiling.
“Alright. Thank you,” I stood up and she led me back to the examination room. I sat alone for a bit then the doctor walked in. He was beaming. I was confused. Why was everyone so happy? I saw no reason for anyone to be so exceptionally happy. I mean. I had no problem with happiness.... it was just the fact that I hadn't felt happy for quite a while.
“I'm sorry we kept u waiting so long Mrs. Evenson,” he zei sitting in the chair that was reserved for the doctor. “There's no way to lead up to this... so I'm just going to say this. Congratulations. You're going to be having a baby,” I looked at him. “A baby?” I repeated. “Really?” I now understood the reason for everyone else's happiness. A baby held quite a bit to be excited about. I couldn't help but smile myself. A baby.
I started to walk home. I began to think..... what was Charles going to say? How would he react? Would it be good of bad? Millions of thoughts ran through my head all at the same time. I had no idea how I was going to handle this. I decided to head to Tom's house first. To tell him the news and see what he said. I turned onto the straat where he lived and knocked on his door. I smiled as he opened it. “Hello Tom,” I greeted him.
“Esie! I didn't expect to see u today, what's wrong? Did he hurt u again?” he asked looking me over for any noticeable injury.
“No. I-i want to tell u something,” I zei in a small voice. “May I come in?” I asked.
“Of course u can Esme, what is it?” he led me into his warm living room.
“Um.... could u get Abigail to come in too?” I looked around nervously and sat down.
“Yeah. One minute, ABBY!!!” he called. “Esme's here. She wants to tell us something!” he sat volgende to me and a moment later Abigail was in the room.
“Good afternoon Esme,” she smiled warmly as always. “How are u today?”
“I've been better actually. I'm not feeling very well,” I smiled back as much as I could bring myself to do so.
“What is it Esme?” Tom asked. “What do u need to tell us?”
“Well. I like I said. I'm not feeling the best today. So.... I went to the doctor, and they ran some tests and I found out.... I'm pregnant,” I couldn't help but smile as the words escaped my lips. It brought a kind of satisfaction that was almost impossible to come door under any circumstances.
Abigail immediately had me in her arms hugging me. “Oh Esme! That's wonderful news!!” she was beaming just like everyone else.
“That's great Esie!” Tom smiled. He seemed truly happy. “How did Charles take it?”
“Well.... I haven't told him yet. He's still at work. I had to tell someone. I will tell him I promise I will but. It will take a lot of courage. I don't know if I have that much. I don't know what his reaction will be,” I started shaking. “That's what I'm afraid of.”
“Don't worry Es,” he smiled. “We're always here for you,”
“Thank u Tom,” I told him. “That's all I needed to know,”

According to MTV:
“Taylor Lautner and Kristen Stewart are among the first to bevestig that they’ll be attending, making the pair a recurring feature on the red carpet (remember their adorable joint presentation of a “scary movie”-themed feature at last year’s Academy Awards?), and they’ll be in good company with a host of other celebs including Zac Efron, Taylor Swift, Emma Roberts, Leighton Meester, and Mila Kunis. ”
Other beroemdheden tend to walk the red carpet, so be on the lookout for meer names to be at the toon on January 5th. Twilight was up for a ton of awards, expect Taylor and Kristen to pick up a few as well as possibly be presenters.
u can also catch live Red Carpet coverage on @Ustream at 4:30pm PT / 7:30pm ET on Jan 5! link
