Week 28

Today was really hard for Lily. She was sitting there, by Jordan's bedside hoping she was going to wake up and today was her second wedding anniversary. Bug understood though.

"Jordan, you know this isn't good for you sleeping all the time." Lily said. "Bug and I are going to have a housewarming soon. We would really like you to be there. I need your help to start the baby's nursery. Youre a sort of a good painter so you really need to wake up sometime soon for me." She leaned over and pressed her lips to Jordan's forehead.

"Ill..." Jordan moaned. Lily pulled away with wide eyes.

"Jordan??" She whispered. Jordan's eyes began to open. Lily's eyes pounded in her chest. "Oh my god. you're awake."

"Ill..." She mumbled. Lily pressed Jordan's call button.

"Yes, I'm Lily." She said. Dr. Walsh walked into the room. "She's waking up."

"That's good." He said, "Jordan, Can you hear me?"

"Yes." Jordan slurred. She looked at the confused.

"You were in a car accident two weeks ago, Jordan. You had a punctured lung and were unconscious." Dr. Walsh said.

"Ni..." She mumbled.

"Nigel is fine, Jordan." Lily smiled softly, "He went home last week." Jordan nodded slightly.

"Could you excuse us for a moment?" the doctor asked.

"Sure." She said, "I will be back later, Jordan." She grinned brightly as she walked out of the room. She ran to the telephone and dialed Bug's cell phone.

"Hello?" he said as he answered it.

"I have the best anniversary present in the world." Lily said.

"you're coming home?" Bug asked.

"Better than that." Lily smiled.

"I don't know what it is. Tell me." He said.

"Jordan just woke up." She said. There was silence on the other end for a full minute, "bug, did you hear what I said?"

"Yes." he whispered.

"She's awake." Lily smiled.

"That is the most amazing news ever." he mumbled. She could hear the relief in his voice. "I'll be there in fifteen minutes."

Bug walked down the hallway that had become so familiar in his life. Lily had stayed in this section of the hospital when she was stabbed. And now Jordan. He knocked ont he door.

"Hey." He walked in to see Jordan sitting up in bed.

"Hey." She smiled softly. Lily and Max sat at her bedside.

"How are you feeling?" bug asked.
"Okay." She said, "I like all the attention I've been getting."

"Of course you would." Max snickered. "That's just like you." Jordan smiled as she settled against the pillows. She looked at Bug.

"Why do you have the look on your face?" She asked.
"What look?" He asked.

"The look like you're going to cry." Jordan's aid, "Don't cry."

"I won't...probably." he said. Jordan narrowed her eyes. "I'm just happy you're okay. I thought you were going to die."

"Nope. I'm still alive and kicking." She said, "Come give me a hug." Bug walked up to her and carefully put his arms around her. He breathed a sigh of relief. Jordan was going to be okay.

Week 30

Lily was now thirty-one. She had to admit, she felt pretty normal. She didn't feel old or anything. She just felt tired of being pregnant. She was on summer break so she was helping out at the Medical Examiner's office before she had to put up her feet. It was nice working with everyone again. But working in the same room where she was stabbed earlier, was strange. Garrett had increased security tremendously, so she was safe.

"So, just for the summer eh?" Nigel asked sitting in front of her. Lily nodded.

"Well, I am due to have the baby in August." She said. Nigel chuckled.

"Yeah. You should really comeback here, Lil. We miss you so much." He said. Lily smiled tenderly at hima nd shook her head, "So...Your son, any names?"

"Yes. It's a Hindu name." She said.

"And it is what?" Nigel asked.

"We're not telling." Lily giggled, "But his middle name will be Mahesh."

"I think Nigel is a fine name." He said. Lily smiled as she rubbed her belly.

"For you." Lily winked. Nigel leaned over and kissed her cheek.

"yell if you need me." he said as he exited the room. Lily sighed and leaned back in her chair. the baby kicked her bladder. She grunted.

"Thank you for doing that, baby." Lily hauled herself up and waddled towards the bathroom but Garrett stopped her.

"Hey Lily." He said.

"Garret. Hi." She smiled politely.

"How are y ou doing? Do you have everything you need int he office? I can get anything you don't have." He said. Lily chuckled, trying not to pee her pants.

"I'm fine, Garrett." Lily said, "I have everything that I need."

"Are you sure?" He asked. Lily groaned. I will not pee my pants. I will not pee my pants.

"I'm fine. Seriously. Can I go now?" She asked. Garrett nodded.

"I'll check on you later." He said. Lily rushed to the bathroom but Bug stopped her.

"Damn it, bug." She growled.

"What?" He frowned.

"Nothing. What do you want?" Lily asked politely.

"There is a family needing your assistance. Their two year old twin daughters were killed by a burglar. They really need to talk to someone." Bug said.

"Oh, that is so sad." lily whispered.
"So could you talk to them?" Bug asked. Lily nodded.

"Yes I will. Could you give me a few minutes though? I REALLY need to go pee." She said. Bug chuckled softly.

"Yes. Go have fun." He said.

"Oh I will." Lily ran into the bathroom and sighed. "Thank god." Lily went into the stall and groaned loudly. Such a simple task made her happy. The joys of pregnancy.
