The next few days Mary had to stay in the hospital. She was still very
depressed at times. She would spend hours just sitting in the nursery
watching Hailey in the incubator. She would talk to her, and tell her
things. She always liked to be left alone while she was in there. It was
her time, a bonding time with her daughter. The doctors said in two weeks
they could bring Hailey home, this news made Mary very happy, but they also
told her this week was crucial, because they were going to take her off her
oxygen supply. Mary was leaving the next day, but Hailey would have to
stay. .
It was the day Mary was leaving and she was standing by Hailey's incubator crying, Robbie went up behind her and wrapped an arm around her waist.
"Mary she'll be alright baby."
"Why are they taking her off the oxygen? Can't she stay on, what if something goes wrong?" she said.
"Mary, its for her own good, she'll make it. She is strong, like her mother." he said kissing her cheek lightly.
"I hope so."
"Come on baby, we gotta go." he said pulling her with him.
They said their final good-bye's to Hailey, and then left the hospital. They were going to be staying at Mary's parents house, for the next week. Annie wanted to be able to keep and eye on Mary while Robbie was at work. And Mary wanted to be able to go back to the hospital everyday to be with Hailey. It was Sunday, and everyone was running around getting ready for church. Mary was wearing a peach sundress, and Robbie a pair of khakis and a polo shirt. They left the house and headed for the church. When they got there, they sat down and waited for the service to start. It did, and it was about appreciating what you have, and being thankful, but at the end Eric prayed for Hailey.
"My granddaughter is in the hospital right now, she was born prematue, and is now fightiung for her life." he said, "Can we please all pray for her, and parents, and ask God to make her alright." he finished with a couple tears rolling down his cheeks.
Mary's eyes watered and she also started crying, Robbie hugged her, and tried to comfort her. But he knew the only thing that would comfort her was for her baby to come home. After the service, Mary and Robbie went to the hospital after, and went into the nursery. Hailey was still in her incubator, she had only two days left until they could take her home. Mary bent over her and as she had done before, started talking to her. Robbie left and went to go talk to one of the doctors. He got all the information on Haiely. The doctor told him she was doing very well, and was extremely healthy, but they wanted to keep her two moe days just to make sure. Robbie thanked her, and went back to Mary. They stayed until 9 o'clock that night, then they went home.
Two days later Mary woke up at 6 in the morning, she saw a sleeping Robbie beside her. She brushed her lips over his, and he stirred slightly.
"Baby... wake up." she whispered.
"Hmmm..." he mumbled opeing his eyes.
"We get to take our baby home today." she said smiling genuinely.
Robbie loved that smile, it was a smile he hadn't seen in a while.
"I know, I am so excited."
"Robbie, I don't want us to stay like this."
"Like what?"
"Like this, like how we have been. I love you so much, and I want us to be close again." she said with tears in her eyes.
"Baby, please don't cry." he said caressing her cheek, "I want the same thing. We can have that, I love you, and we will stay strong."
"I hope so."
"Don't worry, nothing could tear you away from me."
"I love you." she said kissing him.
"I love you too."
"Come on, lets go get our baby." Mary said trying to get up, but Robbie stopped her.
"What?" she asked looking at him.
"Mary, its 6:15, we have a couple of ours until we can pick her up."
"Oh yah." she said giggling, "lets stay in bed until we have to leave."
"That sounds so good." he said pulling her down into a kiss.
she deepened the kiss by opening her mouth, and letting his tongue caress hers lightly He loved her kiss, a kiss he hand't felt so strong, for a long time. They continued kissing, he pulled off her tank top, and her his shirt. They discarded them to the floor, and continued their passionate make out session. They began maing love to each other, and finally collapsed nexyt to each other.
"Mary, that was so awesome." he said out of breath.
"I know, we have to do that more often." she giggled.
"Hells yah!" he said laughing.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
They spent another hour in bed, and then got up and dressed. They drove to the hospital and went in. Mary ran down the hall to the nursery, while Robbie checked Hailey out, at the desk. He signed all the papers, and went down the hall to see Mary holding Hailey in her arms. He walked over to her and wrapped his arm around her waist.
"Lets take our baby home."
"Yah, come on." she said putting Hailey in the car seat they brought.
They put her into the car, and went home. They stopped by her mother's house.
"Mom, dad" Mary yelled, as she walked inside.
"In the kitchen."
"Hey." said her mom as they eneterd the kitchen, "Awww, my granddaughter."
"Yep, she is home for good." said Mary smiling.
"Eric, Smion, Ruthie, Matt, Lucy!" she called up the stairs.
They all came dowstairs, and hovered over the baby.
"Can I hold her?" asked Ruthie eagerly.
"No, Ruthie not now...." Annie said.
"No mom, its alright." said Mary, "But you have to sit down."
Ruthie jumped into a chair, and held out her arms for Hailey.
After everyone held her, they all ate lunch, and talked.
"So how old is she?" asked Simon.
"She will be a month next week." said Robbie.
"I have to go, so I will see you all later." said Matt standing up. He gave everyone a hug, and then went over to Hailey and kissed her hand.
"Bye sweetie." he said.
"Mom, we're gonna have to leave too." said Mary getting up.
"Okay, see you later." said Annie.
"Bye." they both said getting up, and picking up the carseat.
They headed home, and put Hailey in her new craddle. She was asleep, so Mary and Robbie sat on the couch talking.
"I am so glad she is home."
"Yeah, we're offically a family now."
"yep, we are." said Mary smiling, and kissing Robbie lightly.
