Chapter 12
Carried on from chapter 10
..."Oh, you work in a hospital? That explains all the agitation and protest about being fine!" The doctor said, suddenly understanding Jac's actions,
"Yes I'm a cardiotherasic consultant surgeon and my partner is a transplant co-ordinator, we both work at Holby city hospital" Jac replied, looking at Jonny as she finished,
"Wow, well relax and take it easy!" The doctor said, allowing the group to leave he hospital...
20 minutes later, Jonny, Jac and Jacky had pulled up in the hotel car park, Jonny parked the car close to the front entrance so Jac didn't have to walk so far, because despite her saying that she's fine and not in pain, Jonny knew this wasn't the case, he could see right through her lies and knew that she was in agony. Jonny and Jacky then jumped out of the car I to the icy air, the snow was beginning to flicker down from the sky, leaving a thin layer of White wherever it landed, Jonny immediately ran around to the passenger side of the car, and helped Jac out of the car, wrapping his arms around her waist as soon as she was in the standing position, surprisingly Jac allowed Jonny to help her and didn't once try to fight him off. Jacky shut the door behind them and took the keys off of Jonny so she could lock the car, before joining them in the foyer of the warm hotel.
Once inside, Jacky had managed to catch up with them and they all walked over to the reception desk, Jonny then turned to face his mum, still holding onto Jac for support
"Did you want to join up with us or get your own room, I'm sure they could squeeze another bed in ours" Jonny said, looking at Jac, who was thinking about how they could fit the bed in.
"No no I'll get my own room, near yours and Jac's I don't want to invade your space, anyway I need to call James and the Girls" Jacky said, as she picked her phone out of her pocket and rubbed her fingers over the screen.
"Ok, if your sure..." Jonny said, as the receptionist walked over to help the group,
"Hello, how can I help you?" The smart looking women said, holding her hands in front of her, waiting for their reply,
"... Hello, can we have an extra room, preferably next to mines and my partners, ours is 436" Jonny asked, before looking over to Jac and his mum and smiling,
"Of course sir, I will just check for an available room..." The women said, instantly looking at her computer at the room plan and availability.
As she checked the computer, there was an eerie moment of silence as they waited for the verdict,
"We have one room available on that floor, it's number 440, is that ok for you sir?" The receptionist asked, taking it in turns to look at each of the people standing in front of her,
"Yes that will be perfect thank you, the room will be under the name of Mrs Jacky Maconie" Jonny finished, as the women keyed In all the information that she needed and passed them the room key,
"Thank you very much" They all said in unison before walking away towards the lift as they headed towards their room,
As they all reached the 3rd floor of the large hotel, Jonny and Jac walked hand in hand down the corridor as Jacky walked some distance behind them, watching them closely as strode down the narrow looking hallway together, she couldn't help but think that they would both be better without her and the drama that is her family, Jac and Jonny had only been in Edinburgh for a day and his father had already kicked off and assaulted his sons pregnant girlfriend, they both didn't need the stress and worry especially as they were about to become first time parents in the matter of weeks, she knew that this was probably her last opportunity to make amends with her son, her baby boy,was history about to repeat itself, was Jacky about to let her head win over her heart.
As they walked in front of Jacky, Jac and Jonny started talking about what the future held now that Jacky was back in Jonny's life and Jac's life,
"I'm so proud of you, you know that don't you?" Jac said, as she got closer to Jonny, squeezing his hand as she spoke, Jonny turned to look at Jac a smile emerging slowly on his face ,
"I'm proud of you too honey, and I can't wait to be a little family, me, you, Isla and her grandma" Jonny said, before kissing Jac on the forehead as they walked slowly down the corridor,
"I mean it, it must have been a really tough decision to make, to allow your mother back into your life! I've done that before and I know how it feels!" Jac said, looking at the floor as she let out a little of her past, Jonny wrapped his arm around Jac's shoulders, pulling her closer to him,
"Jac listen, you deserve better than that poor excuse of a person, who calls herself your mum! You have me, Isla and my mum now and not forgetting our friend and colleagues back at Holby! And it was a decision I had to make for myself, for all of us!" Jonny explained, looking at Jac before continuing their walk.
After what seemed like hours of walking around, they all approached the end of the corridor where there rooms where located, Jonny
"After you ladies..." Jonny say, ushering his mum and Jac into the large room, Jac waddled in, instantly flinging herself down on the bed and letting out a loud and prolonged sigh, Jacky stood tall in the doorway, frozen as she stared emptily into the room,
"I- I think I'll just go to my room, leave you guys to it and that..." Jacky said, as she turned around to walk a few metres down the corridor, Jonny grabbed her gently by the arm, stopping her in her tracks,
"Mum... Come in I want to catch up with you, we want to get to know you..." Jonny said, as jacky turned around, looking deeply into her sons eyes as she saw the desperation in his eyes, she took her time to answer, thinking about the many things that they could talk about, imagining how things would be now if she and Graham had loved Jonny like they loved heir other children, if they had supported Jonny when he needed them the most,
"O ok maybe for a little while..." Jacky finally replied, edging slowly towards the doorway before Jonny placed his hand on his mothers back guiding her in to the spacious room closing the door behind them and making their way over to the bedroom area.
By this point Jac was sprawled out on the bed, her bump standing tall as she sunk into the soft bedding,
"You comfy there sweetheart?" Jonny asked, laughing slightly as he sat next to her on the bed holding his hand out to pull her up to the sitting position as jacky sat herself down on the small chair in the corner of the room.
"I was pretty comfy yes, we should defiantly invest in one of these when we move In together!" Jac said, wriggling about so she could get comfy on the end of the bed...
