Yep, sounds like she is already pregnant.

I'm kind of curious tho. Why did Phillip turn away from her and start making very vague excuses? And why would he say something that he might regret?

[Minako98]

I think Philip might suspect something...

[fluffysmom]

I liked Chloe questioning Shawn and not just pretending everything is fine. Interesting conversation between Belle and Philip. I wonder if he picked up on the look Belle gave Shawn after his comment at the table. looking forward to the conversation between Shawn and Belle.

[sportsgirl]

SALEM INN BALLROOM A, SALEM HIGH SCHOOL REUNION CLASS OF 2002

7:00 p.m.

Kevin, Shawn and Philip are at the bar drinking. Mimi and Belle are at a table, deep in conversation, when Chloe arrives.

Mimi: Well, what happened?
Belle: I’m in big trouble.
Mimi: What did Shawn say?
Belle: I haven’t told him yet. I need to get him alone.
Mimi: Are you sure the baby’s his?
Belle: Half sure.
Mimi: Because of the hookup in his car?
Belle: Neither one of us were “protected” if you know what I mean.
Mimi: And you told me Philip always uses a condom.
Belle: I tried to talk him into not using one last night.
Mimi: Condoms have been known to fail. ... Chloe!
Belle: What?
Mimi: Behind you.
Chloe: Hi. Sorry to interrupt.
Belle: Um. Mimi, could you excuse us a second?
Mimi: Sure. See you.

Belle: Did you hear ... what we were talking about?
Chloe: Some of it. Are you pregnant, Belle?
Belle: Yes.
Chloe: Is Shawn your baby’s father?
Belle: I’m not sure.
Chloe: Oh no. Oh Belle. What are you going to do?
Belle: I don’t know yet. Please don’t say anything. Please Chloe.
Chloe: Another secret?
Belle: Just this one.
Chloe: Oh Belle, I don’t know.
Chloe’s cell phone rings and she looks at the display and answers the call.
Chloe: It’s Brady. Hi Brady. I know. It’s a blizzard out there. ... Well that’s not good. Uh huh. Well stay put. If I leave now, I can be there in 45 minutes. Okay. Bye.
Belle: What’s going on?
Chloe: Brady just landed, but his flight got diverted to Ohare instead of Salem Airport. There are no cabs to be found, so I’m going to pick him up.
Belle: Now?
Chloe: I know, I didn’t want to miss any of the reunion, but I can’t leave him there.
Belle: But, the reunion has barely gotten started. Can’t Brady stay overnight in Chicago.
Chloe: Only if he wants to sleep sitting up in a chair at the airport. There are no hotel rooms available either. I’ll be back in a couple hours.

From the bar, Shawn catches Belle’s eye and mouths something to her. Belle nods, feeling desperate to get him alone for a few minutes.
Belle: Chloe, you can’t go out in this weather alone. Wait one second. Come here. Come with me.
Belle takes Chloe by the hand and leads her over to the bar.
Belle: Philip, Chloe needs to drive to Ohare to pick Brady up. Could you go with her?
Philip: Now?
Belle: He can’t get a cab and there are no hotel rooms.
Philip: There’s a blizzard out there. Chloe shouldn’t be driving alone in this weather.
Belle: Exactly.
Chloe: I’ll be fine. There’s no reason anyone else has to miss the party. I’ll be back in a couple hours.
Belle: Philip, please. We can’t let her go by herself. The roads have changed since she lived here and she may get lost.
Philip: But I don’t want to leave you here by yourself.
Shawn: She’s not by herself. She’s got the rest of us.
Philip: Why can’t Shawn go?
Belle: Um ... He’s on the reunion committee.
Philip: Since when?
Belle: Please? Could you do it ... for me?
Philip: Ahh. You know I can never say no to you.
Belle: Almost never.
Philip: Ha. Right. [He smiles and kisses Belle.] Okay, Chloe, let’s go.


To be continued Monday...

[gapeach]

When did Belle get so conniving?

[MrsM]

Uh oh, here we go. I think Chloe won't be able to keep the secret.

[fluffysmom]

Belle couldn't pass up the opportunity to talk to Shawn alone. That wasn't the best place for Belle and Mimi to be discussing her pregnancy. I really like Belle's secrets being in several people's hands....Chloe, Mimi and Shawn.

[DancingDays]

Sly move on Belle's part. I like it.

[Trey]

Oy, Belle... what have you done?

[djm]

So excited. Oh I just knew she would be pregnant with Shawn's BB. Con we please have previews for next week. It is going to be a long weekend.

[fluffysmom]

I'd love some previews too.

[Kpatch]

Yes, DJM and Fluffy, of course you can have previews. When have I ever said no to you?

This is sort of a twist on when Belle was engaged to Shawn and seeing Philip on the sly. Remember when Chloe first came back to Salem in 2007 and came off the elevator and ran into Belle and Philip coming out of a hotel room? Belle got really good at lying during those days. This story is the inverse of that. In this case, Belle is married to Philip and seeing Shawn on the sly.
