Chapter 9
That afternoon they put plaster on Lily's broken ankle and Kyle sat with her that evening, he couldn't take her home for a few more days but he was going to sit with her as much as possible.
"You should go home and rest," she said squeezing his hand Kyle looked at his watch
"You should rest too," he said standing up
"I'm actually catching up on my rest being in here," she said he leant down a kissed her softly and before he left he said
"Amy sends her love"
"Amy?"
"I spoke to her last night and called today to tell her you were all right, I just needed to talk to someone and your doctor had kicked me out"
"Oh baby" she said, trying to sit up to kiss him, he leant down and kissed her passionately
"I love you," he said turning to walk away
"I love you too," she said. He went home and went about his evening routine but when he got into bed he felt very alone. Yet again he went to work early and sat by a sleeping Lily he made little sound because he knew she needed her sleep with all the work and sleepless nights that she had been through. He smiled at the bag of jellybeans that were still sitting by her bed although now considerably more empty than when he had bought them earlier that week. Lily began to wake up and she opened her eyes to find Kyle smiling down at her.
"Hello beautiful" he said
"Hello yourself, what are you doing here?"
"Visiting my beautiful wife"
"Aren't you supposed to be working?"
"Not yet, I don't start for another half an hour"
"You came early to see me?"
"Of course, by the way the house is almost completely set up, most of the furniture and stuff has been delivered and set up but I have done nothing to the room we decided should be the nursery. I knew you would want to do something with that"
"Thank you"
"So how are my girls feeling?'
"Good"
"That's good" Lily's pager started to go off in her coat that was hanging next to her bed. Kyle fished it out and it read room 4-05
"What room was your cancer patient in?" Kyle asked looking at the small screen on her pager
"4-05"
"Oh no"
"What is it?"
"That is the room number that is beeping here" just then Kyle's pager went off and a doctor ran into the room
"Sorry about that page Dr McCarty, I meant to get your husband"
"Well I got it" he said holding up the two pagers
"What happened?" Lily asked
"The cancer patient has gone critical"
"Oh no" Lily said sitting up
"Stay there" said Kyle pushing her back down "You can't put pressure on that ankle anyway, I'll go" he rushed out to room 4-05 and the nurses looked at him expectantly "Start reviving her, then" he said and then grabbing another nurse he said call her family get them to come in, if she survives this we may need a DNR (do not resuscitate) signed.
"Yes doctor" They began to attempt to revive her, Kyle didn't think it would be possible but unless they had consent they had to try and revive her.
"Dr. McCarty" said a nurse "the husband said let her go, don't let her suffer anymore"
"Ok people stop" he said sadly "let her go"
"He will be coming in to arrange all the details"
"Thank you" Kyle left to go and tell Lily what happened and then went back to work after about an hour Lily Michaels came running up to him
"Kyle" she said, Kyle picked her up and she hugged him "Mummy's dead"
"Yes little one, I'm so sorry, but you have to look after your daddy and be a good little girl because it will be very sad for him Ok?"
"OK" she said
"But it is ok for you to be sad too"
"Yes Kyle"
"That's a good girl, why don't you go talk to Lily and I'll tell your daddy where you are"
"Ok" Kyle put her down and watched her run into Lily's room and he gave Mr Michaels the room number where they were for when her was finished. After his last rounds he got changed and went for one last visit to Lily before heading home
"Hey" he said entering her room
"Hey yourself"
"How are you going?"
"Great, I can't wait till tomorrow afternoon, you can take me home"
"Yes, how about as a celebration we go baby shopping on the weekend?"
"I'd love that"
"Though so" he said "I'd better get home but I'll come see you in the morning and lunch as usual before taking you home this time tomorrow" he leant down and kissed her gently and then pulled back "I love you, see you in the morning"
"I love you too" Kyle walked away and got into an empty bed for the last time and fell asleep quickly
