Alice turned to face Robert and tried to muffle her wails. "Alan h-hates me," she hiccuped, tears continuing to stream down her cheeks. "He said he's g-going to leave. I said awful things, Robert. I didn't mean them I swear." She turned her tear filled eyes to him and nestled into him, her sobs quieting slightly. Alice rested in Robert's arms for a few minutes as she cried herself out. After she was done crying, she sighed heavily. "Doctor Randalls knows," she murmured. "She's not happy... I don't know what's going to happen, Robert." She raised her fearful gaze to meet his. All of a sudden, a sharp pain, stronger than a cramp shot through her abdomen. Alice gasped loudly, confused. She sat up slowly and placed a hand on her stomach. The pain subsided a bit, into a dull ache instead of a stabbing pain. A perplexed look crossed her face, and her eyes narrowed when she felt a sudden wetness. She brushed her fingers over her inner thigh, the tips coming away bloody. Alice's face turned back to Robert sharply, her expression upset and confused. "Robert?"
Robert.
Robert had gotten off of work, a late night that he was so glad to be over. He knew Alice was miserable at the moment, and all he wanted was to go and lie down in her arms. Before he could go to her he decided to take a quick shower to get the smell of work off him, as well as to change into clean clothes. With a sweatshirt on and blue jeans, wet head as well, he began his journey to his loverâs room. He didnât bother knocking, because on the other side of the door he heard the sound of his beautiful woman crying. Shit. What had happened in the hours he had been away? Had someone said something to upset her? She didnât need stress while she was pregnant. It wasnât good for her or the baby. Robert slid the key she had given him long ago into the knob and opened the door, closing it silently behind himself. âBeautiful, whatâs wrong?â He climbed in next to her, pulling her into his arms every so gently. Was she hurt? What was wrong? A thousand and one thoughts went through his mind as his beautiful baby-momma lied there in his arms. Nothing in the world to him would be more perfect, except that she should be all smiles and happy instead of crying and curled up in a ball.Â

Robert.
Alice stared at her phone, her hands shaking. Her vision blurred as her eyes filled with tears, and she gasped for air. The phone dropped from her hands and hit the floor with a hollow thud that sounded a million miles away to her ears. The stress and pain of everything that had happened recently washed over her; finding out she was pregnant, telling Alan, Dr. Randalls finding the books she had gotten from Bettie (and also worrying how Bettie had gotten them), fighting with Alan... it all physically hurt her and she felt her stomach clench. Alice buried her face in her hands cried hard, hiccuping and shaking continuously. She curled onto her side and wrapped her arms around her pillow, unaware of the pain still swirling around her abdomen.

For some reason when you're pregnant the baby makes you nauseous a lot. I dunno why it's called morning sickness though, I feel like I'm sick all the time.
Bleh.
