Baby Love

Chapter 4

Connor and Lizzie walked into Gordo and Miranda's room and found a seat to sit in. Connor sat first then pulled Lizzie down to sit in his lap. He tried to avoid looking at the confused looks of her parents. Lizzie laid her head down on Connor's shoulder. "Let's tell them about us now. Just about us though." Lizzie whispered and told/asked him letting a smile slip out.

Connor smiled. "Ok baby. But at least look at them." He told her and she lifted her head off of him and looked at her parents. Lizzie and Connor were now holding hands. "Mom, dad we have something to tell you."

Sam and Jo looked at each other. They frowned, they had been thinking that Connor and Lizzie might be together since they had been together a lot lately. Hopefully that was what they were going to tell them. "Looks like you got some explaining to do." Sam said looking at their current position.

They both looked into each other's eyes. Knowing that the other was silently telling the other that everything would be ok. Connor smiled reassuringly. "Connor and I are a couple. We have been for almost a year now." Lizzie finally told them remembering the day that her and Connor had met. They didn't talk about that day much.

"We suspected it." Jo told them smiling at her daughter. She thought that they made a cute couple and from the looks on his face it showed he loved her very much and would never leave her. "Yeah for a while now." Sam said.

Lizzie smiled glad that her parents weren't mad at her. Lizzie didn't think that her parents liked Connor that much. Just then a doctor came in. Connor held Lizzie's hand tighter. He put his arm around her. "Are you the friends and family of David Gordon and Miranda Sanchez?" He asked.

Mr. Gordon gets up from where he was sitting across the room and walked over to the doctor. "Yes we are. How are they?" Mr. Gordon asked the doctor. "I'm afraid to tell you that they are not doing to well at all. Miss Sanchez is doing better than Mr. Gordon though. We almost lost the boy more than once. They should both be out of surgery in about half and hour. Then they'll come in here and we can tell you more then. I'm sorry." The doctor said.

Mr. Gordon thanked him and then the doctor left. Mrs. Gordon and Mrs. Sanchez were crying and their husbands were holding them. Sam and Jo were holding hands sitting in chairs right next to each other. Connor was still in the same chair with Lizzie in his lap and she was silently crying. "Shh baby it'll be alright just you wait an' see." He told her.

__________________Half an hour later (Lizzie's POV)____________________

I was still sitting in Connor's lap when they brought Miranda and Gordo in. I got up and Connor stood up right behind me still holding me hand. I didn't want to let go of him and I don't think he wanted to let me go either. I walked over to Miranda's bed first. Connor was right beside me.

I think I'm going to be sick. I looked at her and she had casts on both her legs and arms and had scratches and bruises everywhere. I turned to Connor and he held me in his arms and I started crying again. I didn't think I could look at Gordo. I feel a familiar feeling in my stomach and get out and Connor's grasp and run to the bathroom.

I lost my breakfast and I don't remember if we had lunch or not but I'm sure I must have lost that to. I put me hand on my stomach and after I cleaned up go back out where Connor was waiting for me. He couldn't come in because I had locked the door.

I walk over to him and hold onto him again. He was over at Gordo's bed and I looked at Gordo. He had one leg in a cast and one arm in a cast. Less than Miranda but they had said they had almost lost him more that once so must have different problems. I have tears streaking down my face again. I look up at Connor. "I don't think I can be here anymore. Can we go home and come back later?" I ask him and he smiles at me. "Of course." We said our goodbyes and then we leave.
