Two Minds, One Choice

Chapter 6...

... "We managed to get there in time, the appendix was close to rupturing, we also found a bleed leading to the appendix, which we have stemmed... she's going to make a full recovery!" Eliot finished, smiling at Jonny as he saw his eyes lighten up at the news, "Erm, er when can i Erm see her, where is she?" Jonny said muddling up his words as he spoke, "She's on her way to HDU on Darwin, and I don't see why not!" Eliot said standing up and waving his hands in direction of the door, for Jonny to follow him...

The pair left the large, empty side room and made their way to HDU where Jac lay, recovering from her ordeal. As they walked down the corridor, by the smaller side room, Jonny saw her laying there with her eyes closed and tubes dangling all around her, this made him walk at a slightly faster pace as he eagerly wanted to be with her, so she wasn't alone or frightened, to reassure her that everything was going to be ok, they both walked around to the door to be greeted by Mo and Sacha, who were doing her Obs and Meds. Jonny walked up to the side of the bed to see his beautiful girlfriend, peacefully sleeping, her red hair neatly resting on the pillows, her pale skin, which had a bit more colour in now than it did when she arrived, almost blending in with the bed sheets. Jonny lowered himself on to the edge of the bed, he gently held Jac's left hand, "Your freezing my darling!" Jonny whispered as he sat there watching Jac, looking at her every little move as she breathed slowly, he knew if she was awake she would tell him to go away or protest that pregnant women didn't need baby sitting every minute of every day, but he didn't care, he loved her and just wanted her to be safe, it put his mind at rest. Sacha and Mo took this as their cue to leave, leaving Jonny to sit there and wait for the love of his life to wake up, so he could give her the reassurance that she will need after the surgery. Jonny sat there, for over an hour, just looking at Jac as she slept peacefully, no longer in pain, no longer hurting.

After a while of sitting there, Jac started to stir, her eyes opening slightly before closing again, she immediately placed her free hand over her bump, making sure her unborn daughter was ok, "Jonny... what happened?... where am I?... The baby?..." Jac spoke, unsure of her surroundings, unaware of what had happened, Jonny tightened his grip as he held her hand, "Jac, sweetheart, it's ok everything's fine, your at Holby City General, on Darwin, you had emergency surgery, the baby's fine, she's perfect in fact..." Jonny said with relief in his voice, as he looked in to her glistening green eyes, "...Im just going to get Eliot and Sacha, I wont be a minute...!" Jonny said, he could see the panic hit Jac's eyes almost instantly as he began to stand up, "Jonny, please don't go, stay please, I need you!" Jac said, Jonny could see her becoming distressed at the thought of him leaving the room, he couldn't bear to see her like this, he knew he had to be strong for both Jac and their daughter, "Jac sweetheart, im only going to the door, I promise I wont leave you, I will never leave you..." Jonny replied, realising she needed more than reassurance and he was the one that had to provide this, he was hit with an overpowering sense of responsibility and need, that took him by surprise. Jac looked at Jonny, as the tears began to build in her eyes, but she didn't understand why, maybe it was all the drugs that she was being pumped with talking or it was genuine need and love for Jonny, the father of her daughter, the love of her life. Jonny walked up to the doorway, looking back at Jac as he stopped, to give her the reassurance that she wanted, before calling their friends, "Sacha, Eliot... Jacs awake" Jonny shouted the pair, who were sitting at the nurses station having a gossip about the weird and different medical cases that they have both dealt with, as soon as they heard Jonny's voice, they both jumped up and made their way to HDU to see Jac.

As they arrived at the room, they all sighed with relief as they saw Jac awake, cuddling up to Jonny, who had his hand resting beside Jac's on her bump, as they waited for their little girl to give out a kick. Eliot walked up to the other side of the bed, letting out a little smile, as did ac as she looked at Eliot, "Thank you!" Jac said quietly, Eliot looked at her, still smiling as he saw how happy she was, "It was my pleasure, ... you had us all worried there Jac! I don't think ive seen Jonathon so worried in his entire time at Holby!" Eliot said laughing slightly, Jac could see the relief in his eyes, she could see how exhausted Sacha, Eliot and Jonny were, "I really appreciate it, all of you, I can't thank you enough!" Jac said making herself comfortable on the bed before taking hold of Jonny's hand and squeezing it tightly. Jonny kissed her on the forehead, before gently kissing her growing bump, where their little girl lay. Eliot and Sacha had left the room, leaving Jac and Jonny to rest, Jac became worryingly quiet, Jonny noticed this but didn't want to bring it up and cause more distress and upset to her, after a while Jac spoke up, "Jonny..." Jonny had an idea what was about to be brought up, but prepared himself, just incase he was wrong, "...You don't, Like Like Bonnie do you, you wont leave me for her will you?" Jac knew they technically were not 'together' but they were kind of connected to each other through there unborn daughter, Jonny looked at Jac in a confused way, he held her hands and turned his body to face her, "Jac, I love you, and our daughter, I will never leave you both, me and Bonnie, were old mates, we used to go to nursing college together and haven't seen each other in over 10 years, if i was going to get with her, I would have done it way before now, your stuck with me im afraid ... how about this, when your discharged from here we will move in together, properly this time, we can redecorate, get everything for the baby and make it our own little palace, so to speak!" Jonny said, knowing that Jac would probably tell him to shut up and it will happen when hell freezes over, but it was worth the chance, Jac looked at Jonny's face, filled with a mixture of Hurt and disbelief, "I love you to! And im sorry aswell because your stuck with me! And you know what yeah, we will, move in together properly as soon as im back on my feet, say about a week tops!" Jac said, looking serious, Jonny sat there laughing, "Same old Naylor!" He replied as he leant in for a hug...
