GoodReadSadly, it was all just a daydream, something that just could not happen. Her so-called engagement to Walter was a sham, and their child was never going to have the whole family picture.
Walter had only agreed to this baby-making business to put on a show for Cole. With the baby finally on the way, carrying the blood of both the Gordon and Foster clans, there were sserious talks that needed to happen, and fast. However, the first flutters of pregnancy had started hitting her. The second her head hit the pillow, sleepiness swamped her. She had to fight to not just fall asleep then and there. She was waiting for Walter to show. What she did not know was that Walter, out in the living room, was waiting on her too. They were both on standby for different reasons. She was waiting for him to walk through the door. He was waiting for her to invite him in. After remembering what the doctor had said and thinking about how he was feeling, Walter smartly took an icy shower and then, like a good boy, grabbed his blanket and relocated to the guest room to catch ssleep Evangeline, in her room, caught the commotion and thought Walter had finally decided to cin, but nope, he just spun on his heel and headed for the guest room.
Determined to get what she wanted, Evangeline seized the moment right before he shut the door and bolted for him. "Walter, wait." Walter froze, not because he heard her, but because he was totally freaked out. His heart almost did a backflip when he saw Evangeline charging at him in her slippers. "Evangeline, there's no need to rush. Remember what the doctor said? No heavy exercise for you right now. You ran too fast earlier, you've got to watch out for that from now on." "Got it."

The room was eerily silent for a place where a married couple was supposed to live.
Walter was trying to breathe quietly, as if he might scare the little one nestled inside Evangeline.
It was not really that serious, though.
Since he had learned about the pregnancy, however, he had been acting all weird to the point where he was starting to annoy even himself. "Evangeline, it's getting late. You shouldn't be up." Apart from eating right, a mom-to-be needed plenty of sleep to keep her spirits up.
After a whole ordeal of check-ups and the drive back home, it was 10 p.m., which was rather late for a pregnant lady.
"I know, but I need to talk to you about something." Evangeline sat down on Walter's bed and suddenly noticed he was keeping his distance on purpose. "Why are you all the way over there?" She was genuinely baffled.
Walter was not usually like this. When it was just the two of them, he would be all over her, even if it was just to tease her about the baby.
