ON WITH THE FANFIC!
Chapter 17.
The train came to a stop in a small deserted train station. Christian gently lifted Satine's head off his lap and went to collect their things. Once he was done with that he went back to get Satine. He didn't have the heart to wake her so he lifted her up and carried her to the carriage in his arms.
He sat down and kept her in his lap, holding her close. He gave the driver the address and they were on their way. They carriage hit a bump and the bounce woke Satine and she looked up at Christian.
"Where are we?" she asked him.
He jumped; he was in deep thought and didn't know she was awake. "We are on our way to the doctors." He told her.
"Oh," she said. She was about to say more but she started coughing instead.
As the coughs shook her body, Christian dug the medicine out of his pocket and gave it to Satine. After a few moments the coughing stopped.
Satine looked at Christian and wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her head on his shoulder, starting to cry.
"It's getting worse," she managed to get though her sobs.
"I know, but you will be fine. Dr. McGregor and the clean air will help."
Satine just continued to sob until her crying turned into another coughing attack. This time is was worse. Her world started to go black and the last thing she remembered was the carriage coming to a stop.
Christian jumped out of the carriage, with Satine in his arms. He ran up the pathway to the house they had stopped at.
He knocked on the door and moments later an older man opened it.
"You must be Christian." He said.
"Yes, but we don't have the time, Satine" he said looking down at her. Mr. McGregor jumped just now noticing the unconscious woman in his arms. "Come in, Come in."
Christian rushed in and laid Satine on the couch kneeling beside her.
The doctor grabbed his bag and rushed in, "How long has she been out?"
"About 3 minuets, she went right as we pulled up."
"Ok," He checked her pulse and then called for someone.
A young man, not much younger than Christian entered the room.
"Jude get me a wet wash cloth." He told him. "Oh and there is a box on my desk, get that as well."
Jude nodded and left the room.
The doctor was searching through his bag for something and came out with a needle.
"I need to take some blood, and run some tests." He said preparing Satine for the procedure.
Christian just nodded.
Mr. McGregor took Satine's blood and had just finished when Jude returned.
"Thank you," he said taking the things. He gave the cloth to Christian who placed it on Satine's head, she was burning up.
The doctor opened the box and took out a bottle.
"This is a new medication I have been working on for years, with you father and other colleagues." He told Christian, "It should help immensely."
Christian nodded again and helped get Satine in a sitting position. The doctor gave her a little bit of the medicine and then they laid her back down.
"That is all we can really do for the moment, until she wakes, which shouldn't be long, the medication will help her regain consciousness."
Christian just looked at him, not knowing what to say.
"Would you like to move her to one of the rooms?"
"Yes, that would probably be good." Christian said finding his voice and picking Satine up.
"This way," he was told as the man exited the room.
Christian followed close behind him.
They went up a set of stairs and then entered a bedroom. Christian put Satine down on the bed and pulled the covers up around her.
"Would you like anything?" Mr. McGregor asked.
"No, I'm fine, you have already done a lot for us, thank you." Christian said pulling a chair up to the bed.
"Well if you need anything just ask. I'm going to be doing some test; you are welcome anywhere in the house. When the miss wakes up come and get me, and if you cant find me ask Jude." He told Christian.
"Ok" Christian said as the doctor turned to leave.
He scooted closer to the bed and took Satine's hand in his. He just sat there, he didn't know for how long. He was just staring blankly at the wall, until he felt Satine stir.
"Christian?"
"I'm right here darling, right here." He said squeezing her hand.
She opened her eyes and looked at him. She moved to sit up but grimaced in pain and quickly lay back down.
"Satine, I must go get Dr. McGregor, he said as soon as you woke I was to find him."
"Go, I will be fine." She said to him.
"I will be right back." He said getting up and leaving the room.
He searched the house until he ran into Jude.
"Where is the Doctor?" he asked.
"Down the hall." Jude said.
Christian hurried down the hall until he came into a study, he knocked and then entered. "She is awake."
"Good." The doctor said getting up and grabbing his bag.
They hurried up the stairs and rushed in the door. Christian went and sat next to Satine on the bed and took her hand in his.
"Satine this is Dr. McGregor." Christian told her.
She just nodded and looked at him.
"Hello, now Satine I need to do a complete check up on you to see how you are doing." He told her.
Satine nodded again, griping Christian's hand a little tighter.
The doctor preformed his various test for his check up, writing things down occasionally. After he was finished going over his paperwork and he finished with Satine he looked up at the couple with a grave look on his face.
"Satine I'm sorry to say, you are not doing well at all. I am actually very surprised you have lasted this long, but you are very strong. But you are to stay in bed, take that medication twice a day." He told them.
They both just sat there, talking it all in, until Satine spoke up.
"How long?" she asked.
"I don't know, weeks, months could be a while. I just don't know."
Satine just nodded her head.
"Well I will let you two be, if you need anything just ask me, Jude or one of the servants."
"Thank you." Christian spoke up.
"Yes, well I will take my leave now." The doctor said turning to leave.
Christian tuned to Satine who fell into his open arms.
"Christian I don't know if I can last that long." She said wrapping her arms around him.
Before Christian could say anything Satine Started to sing.
I want to see what people saw
I want to feel like I felt before
I want to see the kingdom come
I want to feel forever young
She wanted to be normal again but she didn't know if she could do this.
"Satine you shouldn't sing, its not good for your voice." Christian told her, but he knew it wouldn't work.
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I belong
I want to live I will survive
And I believe that it won't be very long
She didn't know how long she could survive but she wanted to, she finally felt like she was where she belonged, in Christian's arms.
If we turn, turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
She just needed to turn around in her health and get better.
So where's the stars?
Up in the sky and what's the moon?
A big balloon?
We'll never know unless we grow
There's so much world outside the door
Satine couldn't stay cooped up it was too much for her. She had to go outside and take in the beauty and to run and feel the fresh breeze on her face.
I want to sing
To sing my song
I want to live in a world where I'll be strong
I want to live I will survive
And I believe that it won't be very long
She wished she was stronger than she was, but she would survive she had to.
If we turn, turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Turn, turn, turn, turn Turn, turn, turn
And if we turn, turn, turn, turn
Then we might learn
Learn to turn
All she had to do was turn this around and learn to fight.
Christian hugged her close. He knew exactly how she felt, "You will make it through this Satine I promise."
Satine looked up at him and smiled, "I am gunna hold you to that promise Chris." "You better." He said pulling the covers over them as Satine snuggled closer to him.
Christian started to sing Satine to sleep.
Yeah, I know it hurts
Yeah, I know you're scared
Walkin down the road that leads To Who-Knows-Where
Dont'cha hang your head
Dont'cha give up yet
When courage starts to disappear
I will be right here
Christian knew it hurt her to not be able to run free and she was scared, but she couldn't give up.
When your world breaks down
And the voices tell you, turn around
When your dreams give out
I will carry you
Carry you
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to flood your eyes
When you're fallen behind
I will carry you
He would always be there for her, to help her along and carry her if she needed carrying.
Everybody cries
Everybody bleeds
No one ever said that life's an easy thing
That's the beauty of it
When you lose your way
Close your eyes and go to sleep
Wake up to another day
When your world breaks down
And the voices tell you, turn around
When your dreams give out
I will carry you
Carry you
Satine hadn't had the best life, but he was going to change that. He was going to get her better and help her fulfill her dreams.
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to Flood your eyes
When you've fallen behind
I will carry you
You should know now that you're not alone
Take my heart and we will find
You will find your way home
She had his heart, he was the light in her life and she was his.
When your dreams give out
I will carry you
Carry you
When the stars go blind
And the darkness starts to flood your eyes
When you've fallen behind
I will carry you
Carry you
I will carry you
Carry you
Christian looked down at Satine and smiled, she had fallen asleep. "I will always be there Satine, always." He whispered and then fell asleep himself.
