HELP! He yelled again not hearing her whisper. Sam whispered again grabbing his arm to get his attention "My phone, there's a number on speed dial call it." she spoke looking in his scared eyes.
"Okay, okay." he said pulling her phone out of her purse and pressing one trying to comfort Sam as the phone rung, he didn't have to wait long. "Hello, Samantha?" The man asked as he picked up, Sam pulled the phone to her ear and whispered three words.
"I need help." was all she got out before starting to pass out as she heard the words "I got you." spoken before her eyes closed.
"Samantha? Samantha? Hey wake up, please wake up." The man said panicked, he barely heard the other person still on the phone.
"Hello?" the man said again trying to get the attention of the man that was with Sam.
"Yeah, yes." The man with Sam said with a shaky breath as he pulled the phone back to his ear.
"Hey man, look I'm going to need you to calm down and listen to what I'm about to tell you, okay?"
"Okay." he responded listening to what the man on the other end of the phone was saying before hanging up. He picked Sam up and carried her to the entrance of the park breathing a sigh of relief when he saw her car wasn't too far from where they were. He needed to get them to the clinic as fast as possible.
He sat her in the seat gently buckling her in and rubbing the hair off her face, praying that everything would be okay with her and her baby. He didn't know why but he felt connected to them and he didn't want to see anything happen to either one of them. He drove to the clinic and carried her inside as quickly as possible while being safe as he could about it.
"HELP! WE NEED HELP OVER HERE!" he shouted as soon as he got inside the doors. The nurses rushed over with as soon as they saw him.
"Okay, sir we need you to tell us what happened." one of the nurses spoke.
"I-I don't know. I was walking through the park and I saw her one second she was smiling and the next she was about to collapse, so I ran over and caught her. She told me she was pregnant and to call the number she had on speed dial so I did and they told me to bring her here, so here we are. Can you please help her?! She's pregnant."
"We will do everything we can sir." the nurse said as they got her into a room to treat her with him hot on their trails. "The doctor will be right in." the nurse said as they got Sam situated and on an IV drip.
"I'm just going to sit with her until then." he told her as she walked out of the room. He went to sit at the side of the bed and sighed. This wasn't the way he thought his day would turn out. "So Samantha huh?" he asked, not really expecting a response just wanting to keep himself distracted.
"I'm sorry that you're going through this, I really hope that things turn out okay for you and your baby." he said before brushing another piece of hair off of her face. "Wow you're beautiful." he whispered in awe glad she wasn't awake to hear him at the moment because that would be embarrassing.
Sam groaned quietly as she started to wake up, opening her eyes to look around at the surroundings almost panicking until she saw that she was in mama Tavares's clinic and calmed down. She turned to the side and saw a very handsome man her age, maybe a year or two older than her sitting at her bedside realizing that he was the same guy saved her in the park.
"Hi." she spoke. "Hi. How are you feeling?" he asked softly. He looked relieved that she was okay, she couldn't help but notice.
"I'm feeling okay, a little better. Thank you, you know for the park and for sticking around. You didn't have too." she told him. "No I didn't but I just couldn't leave without at least knowing that you and your baby would be okay."
"I appreciate that, but you don't have to worry we'll be okay. I have the best doctor in town thank you for making sure I got here in time."
"No problem." he said. "What's your name?" she asked. "I assume you know mine, I don't know yours."
"Andrew, Andrew Cain but you can call me Drew." he told her. "Well Drew, you can call me Sam I hate when people call me Samantha it makes me feel like a five year old unless it's coming from my godparents."
"Understandable." he laughed.
"Samantha Marie you gave this old lady quite a scare today, how are you feeling?" Mrs. Tavares said as she walked into the room interrupting the laughter coming from Sam and Drew.
"Mrs. Tavares?" Drew asked, looking at her and then Sam. "Andrew querido? What are you doing here?" she asked "He was the one that helped me mama Tavares. How do you two know each other?" Sam asked.
"Never mind that mija we need to talk about you and the baby, do you want Andrew to stay?"
"Si."
"Well the baby is okay, it was just something called round ligament pain, it happens typically in the second trimester… basically just the stretching of our uterus as it's growing to make space for the little one you're carrying inside of you.
You're also a little dehydrated nina and that's no bueno, so the IV drip that my nurse gave you is feeding you and that precious one lots of fluids. You're going to be here for a few hours okay?" she finished up her diagnosis making both Sam and Drew breathe a sigh of relief.
"I'm glad you're okay Sam. Thank you for letting me stay, I'll see you later. It was good to see you today Mrs. Tavares, I wish it was under better circumstances like meeting that new little grandson of yours." he said with a smile. "It was good to see you to mijo, you better come visit Elle and the baby I know they'd love to see you." she told him.
"I will in a few days. Thank you." he said kissing her on the cheek before looking back at Sam. "Take care of yourself Sam."
"Drew." he turned around "Stay." she said "I'm pretty sure you were my ride here which means you're going to have to be my ride back." she told him ignoring the suspicious look on Esmerelda's face. "Okay." he told her "I'll stay."
