Alexander's P.O.V
Sitting in the hospital waiting room was complete and total hell for me at that moment. I was sitting out here while so much was going on and I couldn't even manage to go home anymore, I grew the need to stay there all the time, to stay there and be with for when she woke up and we could go home with our baby and be a family. I felt tears pressing against my eyes and the welled up then slid down gently. They broke out the damn PADDLES earlier and it was all my fault because I gave in and had sex with Raven instead of planning it all out for what could happen if she got pregnant, we should've made these damn plans! But NO ME AND MY STUPID SPUR OF THE MOMENTS! Why the HELL DID I HAVE TO DO THAT?! I had no idea I was screaming it all out loud until the doctor gently touched my arm and I looked up my tears making my vision hazy so I blinked slightly looking at her.
"Alexander its not your fault but . . she's stable now and you cn go and see her she actually. . . she slipped into a coma. I'm so sorry Alexander but there's hope yet, that she wakes up very soon with all the medicine we've given her it could stable her enough for her to wake up." The doctor says but my tears were rushing down and I went towards her room my hands in fists with anger for myself, I stopped outside the door not ready to go in and allowed the first memory or flashback whatever it could be called I had to come into my mind.
~Flashback~
"Well Raven, since you are in fact a human carrying a vampire baby we think there could be. . . Complications with the birth." dThe doctor says a bit hesitantly making me freeze like I was an ice sculpture. Complications? "Yes complications Alexander, she could. . . well Raven could die before she can get the baby out in time, but its modern times we're in right now and I will do everything in my power to keep both her and the baby alive now Raven with you being human is a bit of a problem."
"Problem?" She asks almost like I did with the complications part and her voice dethawed me and I looked at her, her face completely serious yet paling slowly like the color was draining out and she held my hand in a death grip and I held her hand back just as tight.
"Well most vampire pregnancies require. . . blood. Human blood to be exact but sometimes just blood in general since Alexander's family does not drink human blood you can drink whatever blood that they can get in the house and into your system cause as I take it, you said you were getting very sick every morning and you remained hungry after meals? If that's the case then you should try adding in some blood within your meals or whenever you get the craving for it. Are you?" The doctor looked at Raven almost knowingly and raised a brow gently.
". . . . Yes I've been getting cravings for it." Raven says quietly much to my surprise. I didn't know that! Dammit I needed to know this stuff! That's when I realized the baby was moving more and I turned to the doctor.
"Doctor. . . the baby. . .the baby has been moving more than usual and actually she's been progressing much. . . faster in the pregnancy than most women would in her situation. I'm. . .worried about it." I sa y stumbling over my words slightly as the doctor looked at Raven's stomach.
"How many weeks are you Raven?"
"I'm about sixteen weeks along."
"Hmm your sixteen weeks which means your both in your fourth month of pregnancy AND your second trimester however you look as though your nineteen months which for some people is their fifth month and it would mean them going into their third trimester. . . Raven he is right oyur pregressing much faster than most women and maybe it has to do with your child quite possibly being a full vampire child. Or your baby could be a mix of both human and vampire like Alexander's cousin was-" I quickly blinked then flipped the hair out of my face since Raven had a tight grip on my hand.
"Wait how do you know about Claude?" I say a bit curious yet defensive for some reason and Raven flicked her dark eyes up to mine as I looked at her then down at her swelling and growing stomach. I felt so bad at that moment that I was quite honestly putting her through this.
"Well I did help deliver a majority of your family Alexander."The doctor says with a low chucle then turned her gaze to Raven her humor all but disappearing. "Even though its a bit extensive I want Raven to come in every week to two weeks for checkups. I want to keep track of her pregnancy, its not something I've ever encountered or had first had experience with.I'll look into some old records if you guys would like that and would like to read it if I find any.
"Yes." Raven says clearly and loudly before I could get a word in and she stood up clutching onto my hand for dear life almost and we walked out after that.
"Raven I'm so sorry." I say as we sat in the car and she turned looking at me a hand resting on her pregnant stomach shock evident in her soft beautiful face her black hair hanging down her shoulders and around her face gently and she looked exactly what I thought an angel would look like.
"You're SORRY?" She says the word sounding like a blade in the silence.
"Yes sorry, I didn't mean to put you through this especially when they say that you might not. . . ." I trail off my throat thickening aS I closed my eyes against the tears threatening to overflow and when they went down I opened my eyes to see a soft look on Raven's face and she reached up stroking my cheek softly much to my surprise.
"I'll be okay."Is all she said and it was like it was all that was needed and I pressed my cheek to her hand before pulling back and drove home. Once we got there she giggled and I swept her up into my arms gently and walks towards the front door and when I walked through Nightmare meowed as loud as her small body would allow making Raven giggle when I realized that my parents were standing on the stairs and suddenly they glared at me and at her much to my fear. Dear fucking god! We're going to die and I took a deep breath steeling myself for what was to come.
