He sat there for who knows how long waiting for anyone to come in, or for her to finally wake up. He knew he should be back at work. He couldn't do anything for her here and he still had an entire country to run. He knew his opponents would use this against him later but he had to come. His wife. He shouldn't have let her go without him. His car was much more protective. And the fight they had before she had gone. They never made up. It was never that bad and now they may never get a chance to make up.
Footsteps echoed outside bringing him back to the real world. They got closer until they stopped outside the room. Almost as if their owners were hesitant to enter.
He stood up to meet them knowing they probably weren't going to come in.
"Hi." Putting a smile on his face he tried to face them with some sort of dignity.
"Hello sir, um... we are the doctors tasked with treating your wife. As of now she's still unconscious and we expect her to remain that way for at least the rest of the day. We've put her in a medically induced coma and we'll be trying to wean her off the morphine we have her for the pain and wake her up in a few days." One doctors said when it was obvious her coworkers were not going to respond.
He could see they were holding something back from him.
"What else is here for me to know?" He asked pointedly. He didn't like secrets, especially when it came to his family. Specifically his Alex. And right now he was not in the mood to play games with anyone.
"Um, sir, while we were running all the necessary tests we made a discovery. Your wife is.. um, well she's pregnant."
Pregnant? He thought. His heart sunk lower than it already had. Did she know? Is that what she was talking about wanting to tell me before? How much worse can this news possibly get?
He just sat there numb. More bad news just continue to pile up.
"How far along is she? Was the baby hurt? Are they okay?" He started asking questions but it all just came out like blabber. He now had two people at stake and one of them was carrying the other. If she... NO! I shouldn't be thinking this way!
But what if she didn't make it? What would happen to their family? He said a little prayer. Asking God to keep her safe and let his family have more time with her.
He couldn't live without her by his side. She was the glue that held him together. What if their last conversation had been that fight? He couldn't let those words be the last thing she hears from him. She had to come back to him. She had to. It's Alex. She's strong and she wouldn't give up so easily.
I know your fighting to stay. Keep fighting my love. Please.
So... Alex is pregnant! But still in a medically induced coma. Thanks for reading! I've been doing real well with getting ideas for stories so I'll be posting more tomorrow. And I'm starting one for Grown-ish (which premiered today and was FREAKING AHMAZING!!!!) I posted a very smutty New Year's Eve story. (Very, vey smutty because I wanted to try it). Reviews are welcomed (please review!!!).
