Eyes fluttering open, a small frown formed on Sam's forehead as she heard something beeping. Eyes adjusting to the light she turned her head and saw her sleeping husband beside her before she clicked on where she was. In a hospital bed. She felt sore. Her stomach felt tight. Moving slightly in the bed to get comfortable she then looked to Steve as his eyes opened at her movement.

"You're awake…" He whispered sitting up and shuffling to the edge of his chair as he took her hand and pressed a soft kiss to her hand.

"How long have I been out?" Sam asked looking to him. Her eyes still felt heavy but she was staying awake.

Looking to his watch he then looked to her. "A few hours." He replied softly to her. "How do you feel?"

Sam frowned a little. "Everything feels tight…" She admitted looking to him. "And sore."

Steve nodded a little. "The knife nipped your kidney. They had to repair the damage. They're going to keep you in for a few days to make sure that your kidney function is normal."

Sam looked to him. She was afraid to say the words but she had to ask. "The baby…" She whispered looking to him.

Steve looked to her before he hung his head a little, the tears already forming in his eyes before looked back to her once more and gave a little shake of his head. "The knife punctured through the sac. There was nothing they could do. The placenta had already started dying." He whispered to her, a tear rolling down his cheek. He was so scared to tell her and now he was scared of how she would react. They had never gone through anything like this before.

Sam looked to him blankly. She didn't know what to say. Clenching her jaw she fought back the tears as she looked away from him. She wanted to just break down but she couldn't bring herself to do it. She felt so numb.

Steve gave her hand a squeeze and looked to her as a sigh passed his lips. "Sam why didn't you tell me you were pregnant?" He asked. He couldn't not ask!

Hearing his question, Sam looked to him, the tears rolling down her cheeks and sighed. "It was supposed to be a surprise on your birthday." She whispered, quickly wiping her eyes with her free hand as she looked to him. "I only found out two weeks ago. I was going to tell you when I found out but with your birthday coming up I thought that it would be a nice surprise for you." She explained looking to him before sighing a little and shaking her head. "Even put the scan picture in a frame and wrapped it up ready for you." She whispered looking down to their hands.

Hearing her Steve sighed as he got to his feet as he leant over and hugged her tightly, bringing her head into his chest as he kissed the top of her head and just held her close to him, the tears rolling down his cheeks as he heard her sobbing into his chest. It was heart breaking. He hated seeing her so upset. Kissing the top of her head he looked down to her, cupping her face for her to looked at him, wiping her tears away with his thumb as he kissed her forehead before pressing his forehead to hers. "We'll get through this." He promised as he looked to her. "Both of us together."

Sam nodded a little to him, the tears just rolling down her cheeks. "She murdered our baby…" She whispered through her tears.

Hearing Steve shook his head. "Don't. Don't do this to yourself Sam." He whispered to her as he kissed her head once more and hugged her tightly.

"But…"

"But nothing Sam…Madison is dead…there's nothing we can do." He told her firmly as he looked to her. He knew what was going through her head and he wasn't going to let her think it. Kissing her head he sat on the edge of the bed with her and kept his arms around her. He knew it was going to be hard for them to get over this but he had faith that they could.

Clinging onto her husband, Sam looked blankly ahead of her. Tears would slide down her cheeks now and again but she just felt so numb. The person she needed to blame wasn't around and she needed to put the blame on someone! Her heart hurt. She felt like it was in pieces and it was never going to heal.

Kissing the top of her head he looked down to her. "Look Danny has got Alfie and Lily for the night so that I can stay here with you. If there anything you need you just let me know."

Sam looked to him. "Can you turn back time?" She asked as she wiped her eyes once more before resting her head on his chest.

Tightening his arms around her, he lent his head down onto hers. "I wish I could babe. I wish I could." Kissing the top of her head he looked down to her. "Do you want anything to eat?" He asked as he looked down to her.

Sam just shook her head as she stayed curled up in her husband's arms, wincing slightly as she moved a little and felt her stitches pull.

Hearing her wince Steve looked down to her. "You okay?"

Sam just gave a little nod. "I'll be fine." She mumbled as she stared blankly ahead of herself. She didn't feel herself. She felt like there was a big part of her missing. She had this feeling before and it didn't end well. Clinging onto Steve tighter she hid her face in his chest as a sigh passed her lips. There were too many thoughts and feelings running through her right now. She didn't know how to feel.

As he watched her curl into him a soft sigh passed his lips. He couldn't help but feel a bit guilty himself. If he had been home more maybe she would have told him sooner about the baby instead of keeping it a surprise for his birthday. Softly running his fingers up and down her arm he just held her in his arms trying his best to keep it together. He knew he had to be strong for her. For their family. He knew that they would have their moments. That they would have their struggles. But what couple didn't after a loss like this? They just had to stick together.
