Chapter twenty one

Rose climbed the stairs up to the bedroom and opened the big double doors of the room. She loved how it was designed, with a sitting room and then another big double doors to guide in the bed. She was suprised when she found that Jack had settled the couches and armchairs and was busy with the safe inside the wardrobe.

"What did you put there inside?" Rose asked as she pulled her pink robe around her.

"Some money we need to secure, the Heart of the Ocean, your jewlerys and some files for the business that I can't lose" Jack said and closed the safe. "The code is 3451. Don't forget it"

"I'll not" Rose whispered and kissed him. "I'll go and start breakfast"

"No you sit here" Jack said. "You threw up last night so I'm gonna give you a nice nutritious breakfast so the doctor won't complain when he arrives"

"What?" Rose asked horrified. "You called a doctor? Jack I told you that I'm perfectly fine!"

"I'm only worried Rose. You can't be fine when for one week in row you're throwing up and feel dizzy" Jack replied looking at her straight in the eye.

"Jack really" she said cooly. "Cancel it because I won't have any doctor examine me!" she yelled.

"Why are you yelling?" he frowned. "Because I care about you?"

Rose felt the bile raise in her throat and she stopped for a minute. "Go and cancel the appointment. Please"

"Rose-

"Jack!" she screamed. "Why can't you trust me?" she screamed and going to the bed she slammed the door behind her making Jack wince.

Rose laid on the bed, having regretted in a part for their fight but she was angry. It was only a cold, she didn't have to stay inside and have a doctor over her! Grabbing her book she tried to concentrate in reading but she couldn't... she suddenly felt like she was going to vomit again and...

"This is horrible" she whispered and run to the bathroom. She kneeled down and started throwing up the dinner of last night. Hoping that Jack didn't hear her, she got up and started brushing her teeth.

Meanwhile, Jack had gotten downstairs and after making her favour and cancelling the doctor he focused on making breakfast. Of course if something else happens he would force her in a full examination immediately, only because he cares and loves her.

Jack took a pan from the cupboard and after dropping some oil, he whisked the eggs along with some bread to frizze. After they were done, Jack took a porcelain plate and put the fresh eggs along with some bread and butter. Then he filled a glass with orange juice and setting them on a tray he started walking towards their bedroom.

"Rose?" he asked. "I brought you some breakfast"

At first there was silence and Jack started becoming worried. "Rose? Open the door"

Jack let the tray down and opened the door to find Rose nowhere to be seen. "Rose where are you?"

He walked towards their bed and found her nowhere. Then he opened the bathroom door and his heart stopped for a minute.

"Rose?"


Rose had no idea what had happened next. All were spinning around her and she had fallen down on a deathly faint. She remembered yells after this and someone carrying her. Then her vision blacked completely.

Her eyes opened as if it was two seconds later. She was in a long white room with a single bed which she was laying on and a glass of water besides the bed. Her head was killing her and she wished it would stop.

"Rose? Oh Rose"

Rose glanced at Jack who came besides her. His eyes were red as if he was crying.

"Jack what happened?"

Jack sat besides her bed and grabbed her hand. "I found you in the bathroom unconscious and brought you there. Rose I told you-

"I know" Rose interrupted him. "I'm sorry. I should have listened to you"

The doctor entered inside along with a notepad and smiled at Rose. "Glad to see you awake Mrs. Dawson. How are you feeling?"

"Tired" Rose replied. "And my head is killing me"

The doctor scribbled it down on a notepad. "Did the same fainting spell happened to you before?"

"No but I was dizzy a lot of times"

"Any sickness?"

Rose closed her eyes for a minute feeling a wave of dizziness feel her. Jack stroked her forehead, helping her to recover. "Mostly at mornings for two weeks"

"What is your daily diet?"

"Three meals at day"

Dr. Whiskers smiled. "Could you sit up Mrs. Dawson?"

With the help of Jack, she sit up and winced when she felt a stethoscope in her back. "What exactly do you eat Mrs. Dawson?"

"I eat bread,dairy products, meat, pasta..."

"Any fruit or vegetable?"

"Not daily"

Finally Dr. Whiskers let her laid back down and she did closing her eyes. She felt so dizzy and ready to vomit...

"What were your symptoms that led to the fainting spell?"

"Vomit, dizziness, pain in my belly..."

"And what were you doing for these?"

Why she couldn't open her mouth to answer

"Mrs. Dawson?"

"I suggested she rest but she said it was nothing and didn't listen to me" Jack said stroking her cheek with his thumb.

The doctor exited the room and meanwhile Jack hold Rose in his arms as she was trying to recover from her headache. After five minutes, the doctor entered back inside.

"Mr. and Mrs. Dawson I have came to a result of Mrs. Dawson's symptoms"

"Oh good" Jack sighed in relief.

"She is probably two months pregnant"

Rose's eyes shot open and Jack widened his eyes. "P-Pregant?"

"As I unfortunately have to say, the symptoms are not good and she has a chance of losing the baby. What I suggest is bed rest, that she doesn't put herself in anxiety or stress, eat dairy products, salads and fruits. I suggest to avoid coffee and smoking. The vomit will fade as your pregnancy goes on and you'll have to visit a doctor every month"

Later, Jack and Rose walked in the road, Jack's arm draped around Rose. She hadn't talked yet and Jack noticed her left hand on her belly.

"Are you happy?" he asked hesited.

Rose stared at him with her beautiful eyes. "I am. But only if you are too"

Jack chuckled. "In fact, I'm amazed!"

Instead of smiling, Rose lowered her head. "He said we might lose the baby. Jack I can't bear losing my child. I already love it"

"Do what he told you should and everything will be fine. Really"

Rose sighed. "If only it was so easy"
