Getting up early Kristen went to the kitchen. Because of her pregnancy, she could not drink coffee so she settled on a glass of milk. Deep down, she was nervous about today, Rob and her were going to talk to Bill their director and basically announce her pregnancy to everyone. Personally, Kristen would have liked to have waited until she was past the miscarriage period, but in order to keep the baby and herself safe, she had no choice but to tell them now.
It was only 4 in the morning and Kristen still had two hours before she had to get ready. She laid down on the couch, her mind immediately going to her baby. She placed her hand on her stomach and quietly started talking to it
I love you already she whispered. This is all scary to me but I promise you, I will never let anybody hurt you and I will try and be careful to Kristen giggled. She was amazed at how attached she had gotten to her baby already! She wasn't even two days into it and already she would die for her child. Do whatever it will take to protect it.
Rob had gotten out of bed to go look for Kristen, the sound of her laughing from the living room drew him there. He stood just at the bottom of the stairs wondering who on earth she could be talking to at 4 in the morning. The next thing Kristen said clarified who she was talking to for Rob,
"Mommy and daddy both love you, you came at a difficult time but we will make this work, I promise you. Nothing will ever be more important than you"
Rob stood there in awe of the sight before him, his eyes watered listening to Kristen talk to their child. He knew that there were things that she wasn't telling him, he knew that she was scared of being pregnant and also the celebrity aspect of it all and to be honest, that part scared the crap out of him too. There were so many unknowns and uncertainties, but the one thing he was certain of was that he would protect the two most important people in his life.
When Kristen all the sudden stopped talking, Robert quietly snuck over and peered over the back of the couch to find that his girl had fallen asleep with her hand splayed over her belly. He went and grabbed the blanket that was on the chair And draped it over her before kissing her cheek lightly. He sat on the end of the couch and curled up placing his head on her legs.
Waking up a couple hours later, Kristen was confused as to why she could not move her legs. She raised her head up a little and saw Robert curled up on her legs. She wondered when he had joined her, the last thing she remembered was talking to her miracle and then she fell asleep. She reached down and ran her fingers through his hair, how did she get so lucky? She would admit that this baby was quite a shock to her but it now made sense as to why she had been feeling so horrible lately. Looking at the clock, she saw it was almost 6:30 and her and Robert were supposed to be up by 6.
"Rob honey, wake up we are going to be late" Kristen said as she gently shook him. He slowly opened his eyes and smiled.
"When did you join me?" She asked him curiously.
"I may have heard some of your conversation with our baby and joined you on the couch after you had fallen asleep."
Kristen groaned. "Did you hear all that?"
"Kristen, it was beautiful and adorable. Never feel embarrassed about your love for our baby. You can talk to it whenever you want."
"And so can you, now get your ass up we are going to be late." Kristen chuckled as she hit him playfully with a pillow.
She went up to their room, grabbing her purse from the nightstand taking it with her back downstairs to the kitchen. Rob was making breakfast for them both as Kristen went into the cabinet and grabbed her nausea pills, hoping that she wouldn't need them today. Placing them into her purse she decided to go over everything in there and also clean it out
Phone charger ☑️
Nasua pills ☑️
Gum ☑️
Cigarettes...the root of all evil. she picked the pack out of her bag and stared at it as she held it in her hands. Without a second thought, she crushed the pack in her hands. Rob watched her in amazement, his mouth fell open. Never in their whole relationship had Kristen ever done that. She was the one who smoked the most out of the both of them and was never one to give up a cig.
"What?" Kristen asked when she realized he was watching.
"You have never done that...,"
"Well, it's not just about me anymore, it will be a long road but if it means our baby is healthy then it will be worth it. We are going to have to stock up on gum and I'm also going to see if the patches are safe
Kristen headed upstairs and brushed her hair out and got changed into a simple outfit for the day. She knew pretty soon her clothes would be tight and determined to enjoy the freedom of her clothing choices while she could, she knew it wouldn't be long because a tiny bump was already starting to form.
When they arrived at the studio, they learned that today was just going to be a meeting to discuss the movie. Entering the conference room, Kristen felt nervous. She placed her hand on her stomach, more to comfort herself and grasped Rob's hand in hers as hard as she possibly could as they sat down
"How are you, Kristen? I saw the news" Nikki asked Kristen very concerned.
"I'm ok," Kristen whimpered. Rob looked at her and realized she was shaking. He gently stroked her arm in an effort to comfort her
"It will be alright" he whispered into her ear.
"Attention, Attention! Please take your seat" Bill shouted as he took his seat. The meeting went by fast, they talked about the fact that in two days, they would be on a plane heading to Rio de Janeiro Brazil. Kristen was both excited and scared to be traveling. As the meeting came to a close Kristen looked at Robert who nodded that it was time
"We have an announcement to make Rob declared. Kristen's nerves went into overdrive and she didn't understand why she was so nervous. They both stood up clutching to each other's hand as everyone turned to them.
"We are just going to say it, I'm pregnant" Kristen announced.
Everyone gasped and then engulfed Kristen and Robert into hugs and applauded
"How far along are you?" Bill asked
"Only 9 weeks, we found out during my hospital stay," Kristen stated proudly.
"Well, congrates you guys."
"We were thinking maybe we could use her bump for Bella's, " Rob said
"That would probably work, I'll talk to a few people about that. There is something else I want to ask you guys but in private."
"Alright"
After everyone had left after congratulating Kristen and Robert on their news, Bill pulled a chair up close to them.
"When are you due Kristen?"
"Um, beginning July" Kristen said unsurely.
"Ok so call me crazy, around that time we will be filming Renesmee's birth scene."
"Where are you going with this Bill?" Kristen whispered slightly worried.
"Would you consider actually having your baby on set?"
Kristen was shocked and slightly frightened. Everything that could go wrong came into her mind and the last thing she wanted to do was put her baby at risk
"Bill, I don't know."
"I know you are thinking about your child's safety and so am I Kristen. There would be a doctor off to the side in case anything went wrong."
"But how? How would we do it...I mean Renesmee is born by C-section and most likely this baby won't."
"Obviously, that would be too dangerous. We would do the scenes as planned but you would be pushing. Once the baby is born we will call cut and hand the baby over to Rob to give that illusion. You guys would do your scenes and Nikki would take the baby to get it cleaned up and examined in another room. Once you play dead Kristen, we will call cut and you would be moved to a different room and be replaced with the doll. At that point, if they are done examining your child you guys will be reunited."
"I'll think it about Bill, the health and safety of our child will always come first."
"I agree to Kristen. Take some time and think it over, a decision won't need to be made for a few more months."
"Thank you," Kristen said.
As she and Rob left the studio, Kristen did not know what to think. Bill had given them a lot to think about and Kristen knew that she and Robert would have to have a serious conversation soon. But for now, she needed to go home and pack.
