Hello guys! Thanks to those who have read and reviewed my story so far and many of you have guessed at the mysterious lady who appeared at the end of the last chapter and it's a big shock for Jac and Jonny and probably for most of you too! So keep reading to discover who this lady might be…..

Chapter 9

After Mo had informed the Professor of Jac's unexpected labour, she then broadcasted the announcement to the entire Darwin Ward and relayed the stimulating news to the others wards; Keller and AAU where Mo spoke to an extremely exhilarated Sacha, a proud uncle-to-be and a stunned Mary-Claire, who, for once in her life, was left speechless at the other end of the line. Bidding a farewell to her enlightened colleges Mo sprinted to the stairs so she could go and accompany the jolly Scottish nurse and her fiery pregnant boss who would be gracing, or rather causing havoc, on the maternity ward.

Jonny and Jac exchanged a look between themselves before setting their eyes upon the new arrival in the room who stood with her hands knotted behind her back and a sickly sweet smile stretched across her face, the presence of the woman confused the expectant couple. 'What was she doing here?' Was one of the thought flooding through their minds. Sensing that her attendance in the room had left them startled she repeated her previous question, "Can I help you?". Untangling her arms from behind her back she strode across the room and perched on the wooden desk where the receptionist would usually be, however the position was vacant.

Jonny feeling braver than petrified Jac, voiced his concern, "Where are you doing here"? Feeling offended by his question, the lady threw a hand to her chest and in a pathetic sad voice answered, "I couldn't miss the birth of such an unloved and damaged little being, could I?", she spat out the hurtful words towards the distressed and troubled Jac. Jonny could see that her green eyes had misted with tears and her body curled up to protect their baby from the hateful words projecting at her and her baby daughter.

"You have no right talking to Jac like that!", Jonny shouted, anger boiling within him from the cruel remark by the malicious lady. Resentment immersed the determined woman as she leapt off her chilled position and sauntered over to Jac who huddled unnerved in the wheelchair. As the lady approached Jac, she clung onto Jonny's hand tighter. "Aw, look at that, she scared". She pouted sarcastically, "Not so mighty and powerful now, poor Ms Naylor loved my no one, a cold and heartless being". She had spoken those words earlier after she had sent Jac flying halfway across the locker room then abandoned her and tried to cover her track by concealing her in darkness. Although Jonny had found her later, she was still reeling from the damage those words had caused underneath.

For the first time Jonny spoke the lady's name with abhor, "Bonnie". Hearing her name she withdrew her threatening gaze from the pregnant woman to the nurse she had mistakenly thought she'd loved, "Oh, remembered my name have you?", she addressed Jonny, "Shame that knock didn't cause more harm", Bonnie spoke bitterly. Momentarily unclear, Jonny felt Jac squirm in her seat, then it hit him, "You did this!?"

Mo rocketed down several flights of stairs, eager to re-join her best friend and partner she crashed into an unaware Mr Thompson, who was dazed at first then upon realising that the collision was caused by Mo he softened towards the lady and offered her an apology which she brushed off lightly, insisting it was completely her fault. "Have you heard, about Jac?", Mo asked the gynaecologist. "Oh, yes", he replied almost instantly, "I'm heading down there now", he added gesturing with his thumb. "Well I shall chaperone you personally", Mo offered with a wave of her hand. Mr T laughed and accepted the offer with ease, "Absolutely, now must go deliver some babies!", he exclaimed before they both continued their trek together, where they were going to be met with the unknown tense situation, escalating down in maternity.

This new piece of information provoked Jonny's rage to blow and he shouted at the cocky nurse, "How dare you harm her, she's bloody pregnant and very soon is about to give birth to the most precious and wonderful gift that anyone can give me, a baby, my daughter, my own flesh and blood and combined with the most beautiful determined and devoted woman I have met, this baby, our baby is gonna fight for every inch of life she can get!". The anger erupted from Jonny, and Bonnie was left slightly aghast and her mouth was open in contempt but before she could respond, the set of double doors from the other side of the room burst open, revealing a breathless Mr T being dragged by an enthused Mo.

The three people in the room witnessed the entrance of the two medical professionals who practically stumbled into the room. The newly arrivals straightened themselves whilst giggling between them but suddenly stopped when they spotted the lady nurse lurking around the stressful couple. Bewildered, Mo asked, "Why is she here?". Knowing that the nurse had misled her of the whereabouts of the pregnant consultant, Mo grew suspicion of her company. "It was you, wasn't it?" Bonnie beamed a cunning grin and replied indifferently, "Well done, what would you like a gold star, or how about a cookie". Praising the registrar on her powers of deduction.

As Bonnie, had her back turned from the parents-to-be, Jac whispered to Jonny, "Jonny, why is she here?". Jonny reassured Jac by squeezing her tensed hand and reassured her, "Don't worry about her Jac; all I care about is you and our baby". Their eyes locked and Jac could see the truth swimming in his eyes and leant her head onto his hands that grasped her hands securely. Bonnie turned her attention back to the couple who were comforting each other and puffed out disgustedly, "Uh, he's only shielding you because of the baby, it's me he loves". "No, you're wrong Bonnie, it's Jac that I love, always have and always will", Jonny spoke hoarsely trying to remain strong and solemn.

Unnoticed Mr T had slipped from the room in order to call for back up and only one person came to mind who could deal with the female nurse in such a way it would leave her trembling for days and after a brisk conversation with the person, they agreed to aid him and he promptly returned to the awkward atmosphere just as a safety precaution for his patient. Entering into the room the topic had rounded back to Jac, Jonny and Bonnie and Mr T could see this was deeply upsetting the pregnant lady.

"You're lying", Bonnie protested but Jonny cut her off immediately, "No I'm not, I truly love Jac and for as long as I shall live I shall be by her side with our miracle" Jonny moved a hand on Jac's bump and Jac placed hers onto of Jonny's and their fingers entwined. "How disgusting", Bonnie said outraged, she edged closer and yelled, "Whatever, you have a miserable life. You will regret this!". A piercing cough, ripped through the nurse's yells and the voice boomed, "Excuse me, but you don't threaten my patient!". The lady stepped forwards and Mr T smugly looked on as the head of maternity Jean Rimini made her entrance known to the rest of the group.

Duh duh duh, so the mysterious lady was in fact Bonnie! The nest chapter should be interesting so make sure you keeping reading to find out!
