Chapter 9: Emergency
"What are we going to do?" I asked Carlisle desperately.
"I am going to get you back home as fast as possible where I will perform the surgery. The house is closer then the hospital is, and I have all the necessary equipment that I will need" Carlisle explained as he lifted me as if I were as light as a feather and carried me to the car. "Besides that you're more likely to be recognized at the hospital.
I tried to ignore the pain as best as I could, but I was not having any luck. I was also extremely worried about the baby as well. I really hoped that she was okay! I would die if anything happened to my little girl!
In all it took about ten minutes to get home. Immediately Carlisle got me out of the car and carried me into the house. Right away the first thing I noticed was that the house had been completely decorated. The color pink was the dominant color. There was also a banner that read It's A Girl! I also noticed an abundance of food, cake, and also presents. There were even games. Now it made sense why they wanted me to leave in the first place. They had been planning on throwing me a surprise baby shower. Even through all the pain I could not help but feel happy that they had even bothered to go through so much trouble for me.
Carlisle took me upstairs and placed me on the operating table in that hospital-like room that he had. The first thing he did was inject me with a very strong pain killer.
"Carlisle where is everybody?" I asked when I finally realized that there was no one else home.
"They're all out looking for you" he said. "We were all very worried about you since you had not returned yet. Thinking back now, I realize that it wasn't such a good idea to let you leave unsupervised like that. Especially being pregnant and wanted. That was our mistake. I'm sorry"
"It's okay. I forgive you" I said to him.
"Nessie I'm going to start doing the operation right now. I suggest that you close your eyes until I'm done" he explained.
I did as I was told. I closed my eyes. I was amazed that I could not feel any pain. I could feel him opening me up and I could also feel pressure where his hands were inside of me.
"Nessie I got your daughter out" Carlisle said. I opened my eyes and saw a very very small baby girl in Carlisle's arms. She looked so small, so fragile, so breakable. I wanted to do anything that I could to protect that small baby girl. My daughter. I felt an overwhelming urge to protect my defenseless baby.
As I reached out for her Carlisle pushed me back. "I'm sorry Nessie. I can't let you hold her just yet. She needs to go into an incubator. She is not breathing well on her own and needs to be hooked up to a ventilation device right away as well. Also I still need to stitch you back up" he explained to me.
He came back a few minutes later and started stitching me up.
"Carlisle is she going to be okay?" I asked, I wasn't worried about my own well being. I was worried about my daughter's.
"For now it's hard to say" Carlisle said. "I'm doing the best I can to take care of her and make sure that she gets better fast. But with premature babies it's not that easy. I'm sorry"
I started to cry.
