Disclaimer: Ownership of the WWE superstars in this story is purely fictional. I am using them to make the story that much better. I own Summer Ryan Hardy and Amanda from my other story and that is it. Everyone else as I said is perfectly fictional and they own themselves. It is for the greater good. But hell, if any of the superstars would like me to own them, well come on down!
Summary: This is a sequel to "Do I Have To Say The Words" my other story featuring Summer Ryan and other characters. So if you want to understand this one more, you must read the other one, to get the general idea. Also for further Summer-Jeff interaction you need to read "I Want You To Want Me" because there is a little bit of back-story there too. Otherwise the summary for this story is simple. Summer and Jeff are married, but marriage doesn't always turn out the way you want it. And these are the days of their lives. LOL.
A/N: I am going to let this chapter stand on its own. I honestly have nothing to say here except thanks Latisha for the review.
"What the hell are you doing calling me Matt? I thought I made it clear I want nothing to do with you anymore."
"Believe me, no one gets that more then me, and I really don't want to be doing this but Summer figured you might want to know."
"Oh did she? How nice of her. She runs off all the way across the world and lives her life with my child and I am supposed to give a shit what she says?"
"Jeff she went into labour and it looks like there is a serious problem with the baby. I was told to tell you to get on a plane and get to Mount Sinai hospital in Toronto. If you don't care then I am sorry for the bother."
Jeff thought about what his brother had just said and what was about to happen and finally realized it was time to let all of this go and start talking to his family again.
"Matt don't go. What kind of problem?"
"All I know is that it's called an Atrial Flutter and it has something to do with the heart. I couldn't get any more out of the call."
"She is there now then?"
"Yes. They are going to give her a c-section."
"Then I am too late."
"Jeff now is not the time to be thinking like that. Sure you might get there late, but she has Shane there with her for the actual event. What you need to do now is get your ass on a plane and get there to make sure your baby lives."
"Shane is there?"
"Yes he went out there to see her for a couple of weeks I guess. Did you even hear a word I said or are you thinking about the fact that Shane is there with her?"
"I heard you and you're right. Thanks for being there again brother."
"Just let me know what the hell happens."
"Shane, what the hell is going on? I am so scared and they won't really tell me anything but all of this technical stuff and I just don't get it." Summer said, tears welling up in her eyes, afraid that whatever they were trying to tell her had something to do with the fact that the baby was dead inside of her.
"I've been talking to the doctors and they told me to try to explain it too you as best I can. The baby has what is called Atrial Flutter, and what that means in easy terms is that the ventricle part of the heart is beating at lets say 250 a minute, and then there's the Atrial part of the heart and its going about double that. They have medications for women who have this happen but it usually is given around 16-20 weeks when found. They didn't find it in you until now, and so they either have to have you deliver the baby vaginally or by c-section."
"So right now you are telling me the baby is fine inside me though right?"
"Yes she is fine."
"It's a girl?"
"They didn't tell you?" Shane was shocked at this. He would have assumed that they would have told her. Unless she had made it clear before that that she didn't want to be told, in which case they would let her find out the hard way.
"No, but then again I didn't think to ask. So the reason they keep coming in here and poking at me and not letting me eat is because they want to see how I will deliver the baby?"
"Yes, I think as of now they are going with c-section though, less trauma for the baby and for you."
Just as Shane had said the words the doctor came into the room and briefed them on what would be happening. Summer was still scared, not knowing how it had happened in the first place when everything had seemed so fine, but she was ready to do whatever it took to take care of her little girl.
"You'll be going in for the c-section in about an hour. They are going to take you now and get you prepped for the surgery. Give you the spinal anaesthetic and make sure that everything else is in order. We are going to do whatever it takes to make sure this baby arrives alive and well."
With that statement made, he checked her over to make sure everything was still in working order and just as quick as he came, he was gone.
"How are you holding up Summer? Is there anything you need?"
"No Shane, I just can't believe any of this is happening to me. The baby has been fine up until this point and now suddenly she had this problem that doesn't make any sense to me. Neither me nor Jeff had a heart issue when we were born or as kids."
"She'll be fine, she has fighters in her family remember?" Shane said, trying to block out the fact that even as she lay here with no sign of Jeff in sight she had to talk about him, bring him into it.
"I'm sorry Shane, it won't happen again." she stated, almost as if she knew what was going through his mind. She had to admit that since they had gotten together recently she hadn't exactly tried to stop mentioning Jeff. Maybe it was time she did. She had to admit that Shane was the one here with her, and Jeff was not even in the area.
"It's alright, lets just do whatever can for this little girl and make her entrance as awesome as it can be."
Two hours later, she sat straight up in her hospital bed, holding her little baby girl for just a brief minute before they had to take her into the neo natal unit where she would be poked and prodded as much as her mother had before her.
"She is the most beautiful thing I have ever seen." Summer managed to whisper. The drugs were still running through her system and she was overly tired but no matter how worn out she was, it was worth it for what she was now holding in her arms. Her baby girl, her daughter."
"Didn't I tell you she was a fighter, doesn't look like she is any worse for wear after all that excitement she went through."
"No she looks perfect."
As Summer said the words, she heard a commotion coming from out in the hallway. Looking across at Shane as he stood up and went towards the door she knew what was happening. Someone had tipped him off to her labour and he was now here.
"I'll go find out what the hell is going on and I will be right back okay?"
"Alright Shane, find out when they are coming to take her away too. I want to make sure I have enough time with her before they do."
"Will do."
"Mr. Hardy as I told you before, you need to calm yourself down. All the women on this floor are concerned enough without you loosing your cool. I will find out what I can on your wife, but not until you relax."
Jeff didn't even want to listen to what this lady was saying. All he wanted to do was get a hold of his wife and make sure her and their baby girl were alright. He didn't care how much noise he had to make to make sure that happened.
"It's alright Nurse Bradshaw, this man is looking for me."
Jeff turned around and came face to face with the reason his wife was in Toronto in the first place. This was something he didn't want to deal with right now on top of everything else. He also realized Shane was now the only way he could get to Summer and make sure she was alright.
"Where is she? Is she alright? How is my daughter? Was there a problem?"
"Jeff calm down alright. The nurse was right, you have everyone on this floor going nuts. Summer is fine, she made it through the delivery with flying colours and the baby, your baby girl is fine. She is resting with her mother right now before they take her upstairs to the neo natal floor."
"I want to see her Shane. I want to see for myself that everything went alright."
"I don't know if I can do that."
"Excuse me? What freaking right do you have to tell me that I can't see my own daughter and wife?"
"I MEAN, that Summer might not want you to see them right now. You have to know that she just went through a pretty traumatic thing and she might not be ready to see anyone."
"She's seeing you isn't she?"
"Yes, but that's because I went in that delivery room with her and watched the baby come into the world. She's at ease with me now. If I was like you she probably wouldn't want me in there with her right now."
"You just don't want her to see me here."
"You know what Jeff, believe whatever you want. I am going to go tell her that you are out here and if she wants you in there then I will make sure the nurse lets you come this way. Otherwise stay the hell away from her."
As soon as he walked back into the room, he saw the look on Summers face and Shane somehow knew that she knew he was out there and ready to cause more trouble until he got what he wanted.
"It's alright Shane, I can handle it. Just tell the nurse to let Jeff come in. Also if you wouldn't mind, can you give us a few minutes alone. I think that would be the best thing for everyone right now."
