Two Minds, One Choice

Chapter 21

... "Ahh land of the kilts, No offence Jonathon, Scotland is a lovely place, very chilly mind you, but beautiful none the less" Eliot said, nodding his head towards the loved up pair, Jonny laughed as he had grew used to hometown being called that, he didn't actually care, he was far too happy that Jac had agreed to go to Scotland, a place she said she would never actually go to...

"Yeah we are having a wee holiday before the baby comes, as time to ourselves is going to be practically none existent when she arrives!" Jonny said, not telling him the real reason why they were going, as he looked at Jac. Jonny, who was still sitting on the edge of the bed with Jac, who despite Eliot finishing what he was doing around 3 minutes ago was still gripping pretty tightly on to his hands, "Sounds like you will both have a great time there!... I'm going to leave your IV line in until all the saline and antibiotics have been administered, i'll remove it before you leave!" Eliot said changing the subject as he washed his hands at the little hand basin, Sacha was getting the discharge papers sorted, signing all the appropriate boxes that he needed to sign before handing the clipboard and paper to Jac, "Can someone page Mr Thompson to come down to Darwin as soon as possible please?" Sacha said, as a nurse walked by HDU, she replied with a simple nod and continued on her way. Jac had just finished signing the discharge papers, when she snuggled into Jonny's arms and looked at his phone as he scrolled through different websites, Eliot and Sacha were just finishing up with the documents before they left the room to see to their other patients, as soon as they left Jonny spoke up, "I wonder why Mr T has got to come and check you over again for?" Jonny asked Jac as soon as the door had closed, "I think it's more for Eliot's piece of mind more than anything, He only did a scan yesterday and she was fine!" Jac said, as she continued looking at Jonnys phone.

Half an hour later, Jac was getting dressed into a pair of leggings and a baggy shirt, whilst Jonny was packing her bag that Mo had brought in from Jac's flat, suddenly there was a knock at the door, "One moment please..." Jac said as she pulled the loose fitting shirt over her head and covered her bump, "Come in!" She shouted as soon as she had finished, "Sorry to interrupt, but Eliot wanted me to Erm check you over before you left!" Mr T said, mixing up his words as he was nervous for some reason, rolling in the ultrasound machine into the room, "Ok, That's fine, Eliot's getting a bit paranoid about the baby just lately, a bit like someone else...!" Jac said, turning to Jonny as she lay herself down, "I'm only thinking of you and our daughter!" Jonny said in his defence, which earned himself a laugh from both Jac and Mr T. Jac lifted her loose fitting shirt up, revealing her pale bump as Mr T set up the ultrasound machine, he then picked up the bottle and shook it a little, "Usual drill!" Mr T said, not even mentioning the coldness of the gel, as she had grown used to having all these scans over the past few weeks. As the cold liquid hit Jac's abdomen, it instantly made her flinch for a second, Mr T then placed the probe on to her bump and looked at the screen, as the picture of the little girl began to appear on the screen, "Ahh, there she is...!" Mr T said as he looked at the picture in greater detail, Jonny and Jac lay there, watching the screen attentively as they saw their little girl move around in front of their eyes, "She looks fine, just like she did yesterday, she's developing at the correct stages that she should be and is exactly how she should be for nearly 27 weeks gestation!" Mr T said, printing of a couple of pictures, one for the proud parents to be and a copy for Jac's hospital notes. Jac then began to wipe off the now warm gel off of her stomach, whilst Mr T packed away they equipment before writing down his findings in Jac's notes, "I believe your free to leave now! Have a great time in Scotland guys!" Mr T said, picking up the notes so he could show Eliot. Just as he was about the leave, Jac spoke up, "Thanks, for everything!" She said, letting out a small smile as she straightened her shirt out, Mr T looked back at her and smiled, "Your Welcome Jac!" He said, somewhat humbled by the fact that the Jac Naylor had just thanked him for all his hard work and commitment on their case, this to him was the equivalent to a thanks from the queen.

10 minutes later, Jonny and Jac were ready to leave the hospital, Jac had insisted on walking, protesting to Jonny that she was not an invalid and had a pair of legs and intended on using them, "Right are you ready to go Naylor?" Jonny said, picking up Jac's bag and throwing it onto his back, "As i'll ever be Maconie!" Jac said as she pushed herself up off of the bed and headed towards the door. As they entered the ward, they saw Serena and Mo at the nurses station, chatting with Eliot and Sacha, "Serena, Mo can we have a wee chat!" Jonny said, quite loudly so that they could hear him, this caused them both to turn around and walk in their direction, "How can we help you?" Serena said, holding her hands in front of her, with Mo standing next to her attentively, "Me and Jonny would like to ask you something!" Jac started as she looked at Jonny, "We would like to know if you two would be our daughter's god mothers, I know we are being prepared but with the CDH diagnosis we are preparing ourselves now!, so how about it?" Jonny said, looking directly at the two women, as he took hold of Jac's hand. Mo's face lit up when he heard what they had said, "Of course I will Jonny Mac and Jac, Aunty Mo can't wait!" Mo said tightly hugging her best friend before gently hugging Jac, Serena was in a slight state of shock, "Why do you want me to be her god mother, I don't deserve to!" Serena said quietly, rubbing her thumbs together, "Because you saved not only my life, but my daughters life too!" Jac said, nicely as she squeezed Jonny's hand, waiting for the new CEO to answer her, Serena looked at Jac and Jonny, touched to have been considered to be part of their little girls life, "Then I would be honoured to be her God mother, along with Mo!" Serena finally said, much to Jac and Jonny's relief, "Right I must be on my way, busy day ahead of me, and I don't want to see either of you for a few weeks, enjoy the time off and relax, I mean it Jac!" Serena said laughing as she pointed her finger in direction of Jac, who joined in with the laughing. A couple of moments later the group of four had gone in separate directions, Jac and Jonny headed towards the lift, slowly but surely, pushing the button as they stepped into the lift that would lead them to the ground floor...
