68: INT. BRIAN'S HOUSE (BATHROOM) DAY CUT TO:

Rachael takes the test.

BRIAN: (carefully puts her down) How do you feel?

RACHAEL: Like I have to throw up.

BRIAN: (smiles widely) That's a good sign!

RACHAEL: (glares at him)

BRIAN: (blushes) Oh... Love, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it like...

RACHAEL: Just shut up and give me the test.

BRIAN: (gives it to her)

RACHAEL: (takes the test and puts it in the sink)

BRIAN: (takes her hand) 

RACHAEL: (grabs it and reads it)

BRIAN: Well?

RACHAEL: It's negative...

BRIAN: What?! Here, try again... (gives her another test)

RACHAEL: (takes the test again and puts it in the sink)

BRIAN: (bites his nails impatiently)

RACHAEL: (takes it and reads it)

BRIAN: What's it say this time?

RACHAEL: It's still negative Brian... I'm not pregnant.

BRIAN: (sighs with disappointment)

RACHAEL: I'm so sorry.

BRIAN: It's not your fault love, these things happen, and besides, we can always try again! (smiles seductively at her)

RACHAEL: Definitely! But not today though, I really feel like crap.

BRIAN: (feels her head) Well, you do feel a bit warm love. Come on, let's get you back to bed. (picks her up and carries her back to their room)

69: INT. BRIAN'S HOUSE (BEDROOM) DAY CUT TO:  

BRIAN: (carefully puts her in bed and tucks her in)

RACHAEL: Thank you honey.

BRIAN: Can I get you anything?

RACHAEL: Some tea would be nice.

BRIAN: All right, I'll be back my love. (walks out)

RACHAEL: (to herself) "I felt horrible, I knew how badly Brian wanted another baby. I knew there was nothing we could do to make sure I got pregnant, but I felt like I let him down."

FREDDIE: (whispers in her ear) Don't give up hope darling, the timing just wasn't right this time.

RACHAEL: Freddie?

FREDDIE: Yes dear.

RACHAEL: Ummm... Not that I'm not happy to hear your voice but... Why are you in my head?

FREDDIE: That's not important darling. My point is, you and Brian will have another baby.

RACHAEL: What? How the hell do you know that?

FREDDIE: I just know dear. I've got to go now, give Mary my love.

BRIAN: (comes in with a cup of tea) Love? Who are you talking to?

RACHAEL: Um, no one. (to herself) "I knew Brian was a lot more open minded since our encounter with Freddie, but I needed some time to clear my head."

BRIAN: All right, well, here you are my love. (gives it to her)

RACHAEL: Thank you sweetheart. (sips it)

BRIAN: I hope you don't mind love, I invited Rog and Deacy over for dinner tonight, is that okay?

RACHAEL: Yeah, of course.

BRIAN: Good. (gets in bed next to her) (wraps his arms around her waist)

RACHAEL: Brian, I really am sorry. I feel awful.

BRIAN: (looks deeply into her eyes) Hey, hey, hey, Rachael, it is not your fault. Like I said, we can always try again.

RACHAEL: I know... I just know how badly you wanted another baby, and I feel like I let you down.

BRIAN: (strokes her hair) Aw, baby, you didn't let me down, you've never let me down.

RACHAEL: Really?

BRIAN: Really.

RACHAEL: (smiles softly)

BRIAN: (caresses her cheek) Don't worry, we'll have one eventually.

RACHAEL: Did Fred talk to you too?

BRIAN: Huh?

RACHAEL: Never mind...

BRIAN: You should get some rest love, you're burning up.

RACHAEL: (looks at him with a flirtatious smirk) Yeah, cause you're here. "That was actually kinda true, I always felt myself getting hotter whenever Brian was around."

BRIAN: Oh, I'm sorry, should I leave?

RACHAEL: (laughs) Cute! Just stay here with me. (closes her eyes)

FREDDIE: (whispers) My, my darling, even with the flu you're still one horny mother...

RACHAEL: (in her head) "Ok Freddie! Why don't you go bug Mary or something?"

FREDDIE: (chuckles) As you wish my dear.

RACHAEL: (falls asleep in his arms)
