Why Didn't You Tell Me

Description

Erik jerked the corset strings tighter around Alanna's torso. She seemed cheerier than she had been last night, and had even apologized for her rude behavior. Erik apologized as well. He struggled with the strings and he attempted to pull them tighter, but was met with resistance. 
"Stop," Alanna said breathlessly as he continued to fight with the corset. "It's alright. It doesn't need to be so tight." 
Erik had never had this problem before, since the corset, as well as the gown she was now struggling to squeeze into, were perfectly tailored to her body. He wondered if the stress of the last few months had caused her to gain weight. He pulled at the back if the dress as he forced the buttons into place. 
"There." He said. And as he said it, something clicked in his head. 
Alanna was as healthy as a horse, has had eaten very little in the past three months, and with as much stage work she was doing she shouldn't have been gaining weight. Unless... 
He undid the buttons on the constricting dress, unaware of what he was doing. 
"What are you doing?" Alanna said as he tugged at her corset laces. "Erik, this is hardly the time..." 
He put his hands on her waist and turned her around so she was facing him. 
"What is it you've been hiding from me?" He asked softly. 
"Nothing." She said easily, but he could see the lie behind her eyes. His hands rounded her waist, coming to rest on her stomach, where he could feel the lump that didn't allow Alanna to fit properly into her gown. 
"You're pregnant." Erik said softly. She bit her lip, which trembled dangerously, her eyes shining with unshed tears.  He sat down on the bed, face in his hands. 
"God..." He breathed. "This wasn't supposed to happen."

So I drew this drawing for a very old Phantom of the Opera phic I wrote a loooong time ago. Alanna was my first OC. If you so desire, you can read the whole thing here: www.quotev.com/story/1850470/A…
