CHAPTER 2
HOSPITAL ROOM
Cooper: Addison what is going on?
Addison: Charlotte is resting. She will be just fine. I have given her some painkillers to make her feel relaxed. You can go see her if you want, but I warn you now that she may not be herself due to the morphine we gave her earlier.
(Cooper nods his head in agreement to Addison)
Cooper sits down on the chair next to Charlotte's hospital bed.
(Cooper talks to unconscious Charlotte)
Cooper: Charlotte! You scared me so much. I can't lose you Char. You're my whole world, and I would be lost without you. I love you so…. (Stops talking)
Cooper notices Charlotte starting to wake up so he pushed the button for a nurse or doctor to come.
Cooper: Oh Char! You scared me so much.
Cooper stands up, walks towards Charlotte and bends down to kiss her on the forehead.
Charlotte: Where, how… (Cooper interrupts her by SHHH'ing her)
Cooper: You're in hospital Char. Before you were brought in, you were saying you didn't want to lose it. What were you talking about? I mean what did you mean by losing it?
As Charlotte was about to speak, Addison walks in.
Addison: I see you're awake now Charlotte. (Starts to check her vitals) How are you feeling?
Charlotte: I'm a little groggy and a bit sore, but apart for that ok.
Addison: That's very good to hear. Have you talked to Cooper yet or would you like me to come back when you have?
(Cooper interrupts while looking at Addison and Charlotte confused)
Cooper: Tell me what? Char please tell me. I know you're still angry with me about the house hunting but whatever you want, I want too.
Addison: Okay I think I should leave and… (Charlotte interrupts)
Charlotte: No Montgomery! Please stay. You need to tell me if, if… (Starts to cry) Our baby is okay?
Cooper looks stunned and shocked.
Cooper: Did you just say a baby?
Cooper starts to smile, looks at Charlotte with excitement, grabs her hand and kisses it. A few seconds later, Cooper realizes it may not be good news Addison is about to tell them after all.
Before Addison starts to speak she takes a big deep breath in and a big deep break out before talking to Charlotte and Cooper.
Addison: Okay you started to have contractions, which is the major sign of having an early miscarriage. We managed to stop the contractions for now and you have lost a lot of blood… (Stops for minute to take a breath)
Charlotte starts crying and so does cooper. Cooper tries to comfort her by holding her tight.
Addison: (Starts to smile) But I'm glad to say your baby is a little fighter just like mom.
Charlotte's face is shocked and happy as she beams a smile at Addison and then turns to Cooper and kisses him deeply.
Addison: Oh did I say baby? I meant to say babies. Congratulations you're having healthy twins.
Cooper: (very excited) Twins Char! We are having twins!
Charlotte couldn't bring word to her mouth as she was still trying to absorb what Addison was saying.
Charlotte rested on Cooper's shoulder with relief. She started to relax at the thought of her and Cooper having twins. She never liked other people's babies, but she knows that she will love hers with all her heart.
Cooper: Can we see them? I mean is charlotte up for it or is it too soon?
Addison: (Looking at Charlotte) It's perfectly fine with me if it's fine with Charlotte? She needs her rest and may not be up for it?
Charlotte nods her head in agreement
Addison: Okay well I will get the ultrasound machine ready while you two talk. I will be back in half an hour so we can have our first look at these rascals.
(Addison exits hospital room)
Charlotte: I want see them Coop. I really want to see them.
Cooper: You know I love you so much!
Charlotte: I love you too Coop!
Cooper: This is the best life I could ever dream of. You, me, our babies is all I want in life.
Charlotte: Me too! I'm glad you are in my life.
Cooper: And you know that house you loved so much?
Charlotte: Which one?
Cooper: The one with the three bedrooms, and en-suite. You know the one we argued in?
Charlotte: (wonders in amazement) Yeah?
Cooper: (excited) Well it's officially our new home
Charlotte: Wow Coop! You are finally growing up.
Cooper: Well I should have done it a long time ago when I was being such an ass to you.
Charlotte: It was my fault though. I was the one that cheated, and I was the one that lied to you.
Cooper is silent for a minute but then grabs her hand)
Cooper: We all have faults Char. (Pause) May be some day you can tell me about your ex-husband…. (Stops talking after seeing Charlotte freeze up) Hey you don't have to tell if you don't want too, but whenever you want to I'm here okay?
Charlotte: (starts to cry) I'm sorry Coop
Cooper: Don't be. Well not anymore okay, because I forgave you ages ago. I love you too much not too.
(Charlotte and Cooper passionately kiss)
Charlotte: Love you too.
Cooper: (pause) How about we change topics to a cheerier note and start thinking about our babies.
Charlotte: Our babies, I can't believe it! I'm going to be a momma
Cooper: And the hottest momma ever too.
(Addison enters hospital room)
Addison: So are we ready to see these cuties?
Charlotte: (smiles) I'm ready
Cooper: Wow I'm going to be a dad with the most perfect mom. I feel I'm living in a dream, right Char?
Charlotte doesn't respond and her eyes close.
Addison: She must be tired and…. (Stops as she hears the heart monitor beeping)
Cooper: Char? Addison what's going on? (Starts to panic)
Addison: No time Cooper! Get help! We need a crash cart now!
