"Jamie!" Landon cried out again, running down the stairs.
"I was getting lemonade," Jamie said softly. "I didn't see where the first stair was and I tripped." She continued babbling until Landon quietly shushed her.
"We have to go to the doctor, now," he said firmly. Jamie didn't respond. He lifted her by the arms and led her to the car. He slid her in gently and then got in himself and started backing out of the driveway. ***
"Well the good news is that the baby doesn't seem to have been hurt by the mishap," the doctor said, "But Jamie is bruised. I recommend that she stay in bed for a few days and then if you decided to go to Phoenix I would go by the end of the week."
"Thank you doctor," said Landon humbly, looking over to Jamie.
The doctor started talking again. "Don't let go of her Mr. Carter. She is a keeper." Landon nodded and the doctor left them alone to be in the hospital room.
"I'm sorry Landon," started Jamie, "I didn't mean to fall."
"I know you didn't." He sat down on the edge of Jamie's bed. "We have to go to Phoenix."
She was surprised to hear him consent. Before he had protested it. But then a thought struck her. "What about college," she asked, her hand waving to imply the college.
"I'll just take a little vacation. I can catch up later. But we need to go, the end of this week. Do you agree?" Landon asked, with a certain tone of eagerness in his voice. She finally consented, under one condition.
"Dad must go with us."
