Three weeks later...
Lacey was daydreaming, well that's what it looked like to Jem. Inside Lacey's mind it was quite a different story. She could see studying, she was at uni but she had a baby. Poppy was making her studying so much harder than it should have been. Lacey wanted to be a doctor and the thoughts and messages inside her head were so loud and they hurt. The scene jumped from Lacey putting Poppy to bed to a doctor's surgery. It took Lacey a while to work out that she was the patient and it was only a few days after the original scene. In the first scene there had been no sound but now she could hear the words being spoken by the doctor but only faintly. She knew what was happening when she heard, "I'm prescribing you anti-anxiety and anti-depressive medication." Everything was going further and further downhill.
"Lacey, Lacey," Jem called, "hello earth to my big sister?"
"Jem, you ok?" Lacey smiled as she snapped out of her future.
"Are you ok?" Jem asked back.
"I'm fine, what you doing?" Lacey asked her.
"I was wondering if you wanted to play?" Jem asked, waving her doll at Lacey.
"Maybe later, have you asked Abi?" Lacey suggested.
"She's not here," Jem told her.
"Has she gone out with Rhys?" Lacey asked.
"No, Jack picked her up and took her to the hub," Jem explained.
"Why?" Lacey asked, slightly concerned because Gwen only let Abi near the hub when something important was going on.
Jem merely shrugged before skipping off to find something to do now Lacey wouldn't play.
Lacey picked up her phone and coat before heading downstairs, hailing a cab and heading to the hub.
"Gwen, Jack," she called as she entered.
"Lacey, what are you doing here?" Martha asked as she jogged up from the medical bay.
"I was coming to see Gwen, Jem told me Jack had brought Abi here, what's going on?" Lacey asked.
"Gwen's not well," Martha explained.
"In what way not well?" Lacey asked.
Jack, Martha and Gwen were the only people who knew about the baby, even Rhys was still in the dark.
"Gwen was pregnant Lacey, she had a miscarriage," Martha explained.
"What? Oh my god." Lacey said sounding shocked.
"She's doing ok now, she's a bit upset though so maybe it's best if you just go home." Martha suggested.
"Ah, Lacey can you take Miss Abigail home, she's a bit tired," Jack asked as he left the medical bay holding Abi.
"Sure," Lacey said as she took Abi from Jack and Abi rested her head sweetly on Lacey's shoulder.
"Does she know about Gwen?" Lacey mouthed to Martha.
"She just knows she was a bit sick, that's all," Martha whispered.
"Ok, come on then Abi, let's go home huh," Lacey said as cheerfully as she could manage as she carried Abi back out of the hub.
I know this is harsh!! Gwen and Jack having a baby though isn't really meant to be, it was never really going to have a happy ending. Please keep reviewing!!
