Freddie Benson sighed as he heard the all too familiar whine coming from the baby monitor next to his bedstand. He looked over to his wife, Sam Benson and saw she didnt stir. This was the fifth time tonight that their baby had started to cry. He quickly unwrapped his arms from around Sam's waist and quietly got out of bed. He walked slowly toward the baby's nursery and picked her up from the crib. He frowned as he noticed she was blazing hot and was breathing really hard.
"Bella, you okay?" He asked gently, while rocking her back and forth. She responded with a few coughs. "Hungry? Is that it? C'mon let's go get something to eat."
He walked downstairs and into the kitchen, seating her in her high chair. "Be right back," he told her, as he opened the fridge and made the milk. "Here you go, Bells." She threw the bottle on the floor. "Thats weird," Freddie mumbled to himself,picking the bottle up off the hardwood floor. "You're always hungry."
He took her out of her high chair. "Let's go check your temperature. I hope you don't have a fever." She started to cough some more.
Entering her nursery, he got the thermometer out of the first aid kit his mom lent him, and put it in her ear. He waited for the ding, and when it came, he frowned. "102.3, that's bad. You have a fever. C'mon, let's go to mommy."
He sat his daughter on their bed as he gently shook his wife. "Sam, wake up," he said. "I think something's wrong with Isabella. Sam..."
"What?" she groaned. She hadn't gotten as much sleep either, therefore not in the mood. It was four in the morning anways.
"Sam, it's something wrong with her. She's having trouble breathing, she's coughing a lot, and she has a fever of 102.3."
"It's probably just a cold," Sam said.
"No, I think it's something really wrong with her." Freddie tried convincing his wife.
"Okay, Benson," she started. "If you think it's something serious then let's go to the hospital." She got out of bed, much to her dismay, and changed into some clothes, grabbing the keys and heading out the door, with Freddie and Bella right on her heels.
