Chapter 11
It had been three weeks since Kiki and Tarb told everyone they were pregnant; after a lot of discussion and crying they decided to have an abortion. That was what was best in their current situation; they were only fifteen after all. Kiki would still be only fifteen when she had the baby because she just turned fifteen.
Mina had woken up a few hours after Kiki and Tarb left; Elliot was so elated…but not so much when he had to tell her she had to be on birth control for awhile and that they had to wait to become pregnant until they knew it was safe.
Mina was a little confused about all that, but eventually said that she agreed.
Then just yesterday, Mina was admitted back into a hospital and something weird also happened; Elliot all of the sudden became half angel like Mina.
Aside from being heavily surprised, Pip was also annoyed.
Flashback: Yesterday:
Mina was working in the kitchen with Wesley helping him bake and clean the dishes when Elliot walked into the room.
"How are you doing?" Elliot asked walking up to the counter.
"I'm good; just making pastries. How are you? Did you just wake up?" Wesley asked looking at Elliot.
"Yeah; since Mina was over at Zoey's last night I was up really late last night going over research. As of late I find it hard to sleep alone." Elliot said simply.
"I'm sorry." Mina said softly, feeling bad.
"No, don't; it's perfectly fine. I'm glad you have friends that you can have spend the night. Don't worry about me." Elliot said looking at Mina.
"But…" Mina started.
"Don't worry about me; I'm fine. I got all that research looked over and done with. And as long as I have you, as long as you're mine…I'm all good; because I know you'll always come home to me." Elliot said, walking over to and holding Mina.
"Ok. Of course I'll always come home to you." Mina said looking into Elliot's eyes.
"But that being said, I did miss you last night; missed your warm body so close to mine." Elliot said, whispering the last part as he pulled her close to him, making her squeak.
"Elliot!" Wesley quietly exclaimed looking at the two when he heard Mina squeak.
"Yes?" Elliot asked looking at Wesley.
"Not right now; she's working. You know better…" Wesley sighed.
"Sorry…I just really missed her..." Elliot said holding onto Mina.
"I know...believe me, I know. Mina, do you think can watch the kitchen on your own for a few minutes?" Wesley asked looking directly at Mina.
"I think so…but I don't know how to bake…" Mina said nervously.
"Ok…just hold on a second. Umm…Bridget, could you come here for a few minutes?" Wesley called on Bridget; he knew she could bake.
"Yes, what is it?" Bridget asked softly.
"Could you watch the baked goods? Mina doesn't trust herself to watch them herself. I need to have a private conversation with Elliot." Wesley said looking at Bridget.
"Yes, of course." Bridget said walking into the kitchen.
"Thank you. Elliot, please come with me." Wesley said making Elliot follow him up to his room.
"Is everything alright?" Bridget asked Mina after the guys were gone.
"I don't know…we were just talking and Mast-Elliot hugged me and Mr. Wesley got upset or something…" Mina said confused, hoping she's not in trouble; or worse…got Elliot in trouble.
"I'm sure everything will be fine." Bridget said with a reassuring smile.
"I hope so…" Mina said softly as she went back to what she was doing.
With Elliot & Wesley: Elliot's Room:
"So what's up? Am I in trouble or something? Why can't this be said in front of Mina?" Elliot asked slightly annoyed…more so that he didn't know what was going on.
"You're not really in trouble…and neither is Mina. I just wanted to talk to you man to man. And it's about you and Mina." Wesley said seriously, looking at Elliot.
"What about us?" Elliot asked crossing his arms.
"I know that look Elliot; just calm down. I just want to talk about how I've noticed that since she saved your life…or rather since she woke up after saving your life and started birth control you've been clingy towards her…more so then usual. I know you haven't had sex in awhile. You do realize that you could've been using a condom? And now the birth control is in her system; you can have sex without a condom safely." Wesley explained to Elliot.
"Yes…I know. But I worry; she says she doesn't feel right on the birth control." Elliot said simply.
"How do you mean?" Wesley asked looking at Elliot confused.
"She says it makes her feel queasy. And she's been throwing up in the morning…" Elliot said and then got worried when Wesley gave him a look.
"What's wrong?" Elliot asked right away.
"Oh no…" Wesley said taking off downstairs, Elliot right behind him.
"What's going on?" Elliot asked as soon as they got down to an empty café.
"We don't know what happened!" Corina exclaimed right away.
"We just closed the café and got everyone out of here! And Renee called 911!" Kiki cried.
"What happened?" Elliot asked immediately.
"Mina collapsed and she started bleeding heavily! Zoey and Renee are with her now!" Bridget cried; she had blood on her uniform from trying to help Mina.
"Ok…girls go get changed and throw you uniforms in cold water right away; you can all go home if you wish. Elliot and I will stay with Mina." Wesley said as Elliot ran to Mina right away.
"Mina! Mina, wake up. Wesley, she's so cold! What's wrong with her?" Elliot panicked.
"I'm not a hundred percent sure; but I think she might be miscarrying." Wesley said wrapping a hot blanket around Mina.
"What? What do you mean miscarrying? I thought you said she wasn't pregnant!" Elliot yelled.
"Mmmm…" Mina moaned as she started coming around a little.
"Mina. Mina hold on; help is on its way." Elliot said holding her.
"Pregnant?" Mina asked confused.
"When I took her to the hospital to make sure it was safe for her to even go on birth control they did a physical and said she was one hundred percent not pregnant. If this is a miscarriage clearly they were wrong…" Wesley said as the EMTs came in; they didn't hesitate or ask any questions; they just took her straight to the ambulance. Elliot of course went with while Wesley and Renee drove behind them.
At The Hospital:
"Elliot, what's going on?" Wesley asked once they got to her room.
"Do you know?" Renee asked right away.
"The only thing I know is that she miscarried and that her blood clot burst; she's in surgery right now." Elliot said sitting there.
"Do they know anything about her pregnancy other than she miscarried?" Renee asked.
"No…not that I know of. They asked about her parents and I told her they were both dead and that Wesley J. Coolridge was her legal guardian; he took her to go get the birth control and that he should be here in a little bit." Elliot explained as he pushed the red call button.
"Ok…" Wesley sighed as he sat down.
Five minutes later a nurse walked in, "Can I help you?" She asked calmly.
"Yes. Could you tell Dr. Gale that Wesley is here; he is Mina's legal guardian." Elliot said simply.
"Yes of course." The nurse said smiling as she left the room.
Twenty Minutes later Dr. Gale came to talk to Wesley in private.
Fifteen Minutes Later:
Wesley came back after a few minutes.
"So what did he have say?" Renee asked when Wesley came back in.
"Well…I told them about when I took her to get birth control and what not and I was told that the doctor who saw her was fired for doing this to several other young girls." Wesley started.
"And what does that mean?" Ryou asked angrily.
"It means that the doctor that Mina seen doesn't think that young girls should become pregnant…especially out of wedlock. The doctor knew she was pregnant, but still he gave her the birth control. And it's a strong birth control. We were both told that it wouldn't cause blood clots and that it was safe. Well it's safe for blood clots, but it's also not safe for pregnancy; it's one of the top pills that kills pregnancy." Wesley explained.
"What's going to happen to him?" Elliot asked on edge.
"He's been arrested and most of the girls will testify against him; yes, they have enough girls to testify, but if Mina wants to she can as well. I don't know if there will be lawsuits being brought against him; that's not up to me; that's between you and Mina." Wesley explained.
"What about Mina?" Elliot and Renee asked at the same time.
"What do you mean?" Wesley asked confused.
"Will she have to be on birth control still or can she stop it?" Elliot asked first.
"Well…she should be on birth control until we know its safe; but I doubt she'll want to be on it after all this. So…it's between you and her. I know how much you want to be a father; and I believe I know how much she wants to be a mother…" Wesley started.
"But you need to think of her safety." Renee said interrupting Wesley.
"I know that…but I don't think she'll want to be on birth control any longer. I don't mind waiting to be a father; I really don't. Right now I only care about her." Elliot said simply as he sat there.
Wesley was about to say something when a doctor and some nurses brought Mina into her room.
"How is she? Is she ok?" Elliot asked right away.
"She'll be ok; she's probably going to be in pain for awhile. But I'm sure she'll pull through; she seems like a fighter. Just give her time. Oh, and her clot is completely gone now. However, with that said, I would give it at least six months or so before she tries to become pregnant again. And with how you react, I'm guessing you're her partner. Don't worry, I see this a lot. But in saying that; I would highly recommend if you want children that it's for sure what you both want and that you're in it for the long haul. Like I said I've seen this before and sometimes they say it and then it happens, but then the guy or the girl doesn't want the child anymore. So again, just make sure this is what you absolutely want and that she's the one you want to be with for the rest of your life. You're the legal guardian?" The nurse said looking at Elliot and then asked Wesley.
"Yes, that's correct. Is there something I need to know?" Wesley asked looking at the doctor.
"Just make sure she takes all her medications; they'll be sent to the pharmacy that you request when she gets discharged. Mr. Wesley, please note that you have every right to tell them that they cannot have children at this time; you can also tell them they can't have sex as well. But, that's not up to me and as long as you're ok with their relationship, then by all means that's up to you. Oh, I'm sorry…I'm supposed to say all of this; it's in my job description when we get girls sixteen and under in relationships with men eighteen years and older." The doctor said simply.
"No, it's fine; we understand. Correct, Elliot?" Wesley asked looking at Elliot who didn't look too thrilled.
"Yeah…I understand…" Elliot said trying to remain calm.
"Well anyways, I've got other rounds I need to see to. If you need anything, don't hesitate to push the red call button." The doctor said with a calm smile before he left.
"Elliot…you need to calm down; he's just doing his job." Wesley said scolding Elliot.
"I know…" Elliot sighed.
"Elliot?" Mina moaned out in pain.
"Mina, I'm so sorry." Elliot said as he was at his side right away.
"Pregnant?" Mina asked softly.
"No…not anymore. A bad man made you lose it. Don't you worry; it's not Wesley's fault. He thought that he could trust the guy as well. I promise you, everything will be ok from now on. But Wesley and the doctors are right; we should wait a little longer before we have babies. I can wait; I only care about you and your safety right now." Elliot said softly, holding her hand.
"I wish you were like me; I wish you were an angel or half angel. If you were, I wouldn't be able to get pregnant until I turned eighteen or nineteen; I can't remember which one exactly. I just know it has something to do with angel DNA or something like that…but that doesn't matter does it?" Mina asked weakly.
"No, it doesn't matter. What does matter is that I love you and I will take care of you with all that I have. I love you." Elliot said pouring his heart out to her as he leaned over her.
"I love you Elliot." Mina said softly causing Elliot to cry; she finally said his name…without calling him "Master."
"What's wrong?" Mina asked softly when she felt his tears falling on her face.
"You didn't call me "Master;" you called me by my name. That makes me so happy." Elliot said rubbing her hair away from her eyes.
"I'm glad…I could make you happy." Mina said with a weak smile while Elliot ran his fingers over her forehead.
Wesley and Renee had left a little bit ago to give them some space.
"Can I kiss you? Or are you in too much pain?" Elliot asked softly.
"Soft kisses please?" Mina asked looking at Elliot.
"But of course." Elliot said with a smile as he leaned down to gently kiss her.
When he kissed her, her pendant started to glow and when Wesley and Renee walked in the pendant had transferred its glow to Elliot; he was now glowing instead.
After about three minutes Elliot stopped glowing; and when he did he had pink wings for a minute before they turned blue and had the same markings as Mina's wings…
