"Desiree…"
"Anna…"
"Desiree…"
"Anna…"
"Desiree…"
"Ann…AH!" Veronica yelped.
Logan sat up in alarm. "Veronica? What's wrong?"
"I think my water broke!" she gasped between words.
Logan's POV
It took me a while to understand what Veronica just said. But when I did I jumped up in alarm.
"Are you sure?" I looked at her carefully. I saw the fear in her eyes and knew she wasn't joking. I immediately swept her up in my arms and jogged briskly down the stairs. My mother was coming from the kitchen when she saw Veronica in my arms. Her eyes widened with concern. Ever since Veronica had moved in, she and my mother had gotten very close. It was Veronica who got her out of her stupor of chardonnay after Aaron's death. It was my mother who helped decorate the baby's room for Veronica and the one who drove Veronica to the doctor's and held her hand during the ultra-sound when I was in school. My mother had accepted Veronica as if she was her own daughter. So when she saw Veronica in my arms, limp and in obvious pain, she went into Protective Mother-mode.
"Logan! Veronica! What's wrong? Is the baby all right? Did she have a miscarriage?" my mother exclaimed
I heaved and adjusted Veronica in my arms and headed for the door. " No, her water broke."
My mother's hands flew to her mouth. She ran quickly to the door, grabbed my keys and flung the door open. I walked briskly threw the door and to the car, where I laid Veronica on the backseat. I kissed her forehead and whispered into her hair, "We're gonna have a baby." I ran to the driver's side of the car, and climbed in next to my mother, who sat in the passenger's seat, holding Veronica's hand through the seats.
Veronica's POV
God this fucking hurts like a motherfucker I thought on the way to the hospital. Lynn sat next to Logan in the front seat, holding my hand, letting me squeeze when a contraction came. Logan kept his eyes on the road, driving like a mad man. When one contraction was over, I peaked to the front to see the speed we were going. The MPH was almost 85, past the 55 speed limit. All I could do was sigh and hope we got to the hospital before the baby came. Luckily, thanks to Logan's driving, we made it to Neptune General in a record of 10 minutes. Logan once again swept me up into his arms and carried me to the front entrance once he parked the yellow monstrosity he called a car. Once in the hospital, he began calling for assistance.
"Help! Please I need help! Woman in labor here!"
Lynn rushed to find the nearest orderly who brought a wheelchair. Logan put me in carefully and began following the orderly who was heading to the front desk, who grabbed some admission papers and headed towards the elevator. Logan pushed the wheelchair, Lynn in tow. When we were in the elevator, the orderly began asking questions about me and how long I had been pregnant and other medical questions. As we inched towards the 5th floor, where the maternity ward was located, the elevator stopped on the 3rd floor to accommodate more passengers. These passengers were Duncan and Lilly Kane.
A/N Hope ya like this chapter. Its more of a filler and I originally planned for Veronica just to go into labor and later deal with the Kane duo. But I thought this would be a bit more interesting. Now if I may direct your attention to the purple button that says GO. Please? Pretty please with sugar on top? Feedback makes my soul tingle. And I already have Chapter 16 all typed so once I get 5 reviews, I'll post it!
