Chapter 7:

Karen was alone in the house (apart from 30 staff), she was glad of these times, any time without Stanley was appricated. Ever since that time he hit her into the table he had been different, well they both were. Even though Stan had hit Karen before that, there was something about that night that almost shocked him. She didn't think he realised his strength, even though he is a big man.

Karen sat in the Games room with a martini in her hand, she liked to sit here when the family was out, it became a regular thing. She didn't know what made her stay in there, she just felt comforted.

Her head twitched towards the door as she heard a smash from one of the kids rooms.

"If that's Rosario trying to steal something again then I'm going to get her on the first plane back to Treasure Island." Karen screetched whilst making her way to where the noise came from.

As she walked past Olivias room she saw a smashed lamp in the room near the doorway. Her eyes travelled up from the floor to the tall chest of drawers where she knew the lamp had once stood. Attached to the metre-high chest of drawers was a heavily pregnant Olivia, her knuckles white from squeezing, her body swaying forward and back and she was biting her lip hard.

"Oh my god." Karen said staring.

"Olivia, we need to get you to the hospital." stated Karen

"No it ok," Olivia said in between controlled breaths "I'll be fine in a minute." Olivia continued to sway.

"Seriously, if you're in labour you need to be in a hospital!"

There was about 30seconds of silence as Karen just watched Olivia sway and bit her lip as she tried to get through the obvious pain she was in. Then she stopped and she looked up.

"See I told you I'd be fine after a minute." Olivia tried desparately to reassure Karen.

"Olivia, we need to get you to the hospital." Karen repeated. She tried to direct Olivia out of the room.

"Get off me!" Olivia shouted and shrugged Karens hand off her shoulder. Olivia stormed out of the room and headed downstairs with Karen close on her tail.

"Olivia you've got no idea what you're up against." Karen attempted to warn Olivia

"Thanks for your consern but I'm fine-ahhhhh!" Olivias knees weakened in pain and she grabbed the rail next to her for support and to stop herself from falling down the stairs. Karen ran down the next few steps to catch up with Olivia, she supported her and sat her down on a step.

"ROSARIO!" Karen screamed "ROSARIO!"

Rosie came frumpily into sight at the bottom of the stairs. She looked up and saw Olivia in pain, holding tighting onto the rail and her stomach and Karen sitting next to her rubbing her back. A rare sight.

"Oh thank God Rosie you're here, we need a couple of martini's and an ambulance here pronto! If I'm with a woman in labour I need to be pissed."

Rosie ran off out of sight to carry out the instructions set by Miss Karen.

"Ah! Oh! Karen this hurts!" Olivia complained, accepting the fact she's in labour.

"I know this is hard honey but you've got to ride it out, breathe hon." Karen demonstreted how to breathe

"Ah!" Olivia screamed "How could you possibly know how OH! hard this is for me!"

"Well honey, um...I can only imagine I suppose."

"You've never had children! You couldn't imagine! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

"How do you know?" Karen said taking her arm off Olivias back "How do you know what has happened in my past? I'll have you know-"

"MISS KAREN! Your drinks!" Rosie interrupted with a glass in each hand.

"Thank goodness! This should shut me up!" Karen said before downing both drinks.

The paramedics arrived about 10 minutes, 6 contractions, 4 martinis and a slap later (Rosie panicked and got slapped by Karen). They all got the hospital safely and by the time they got there, Olivia was fully dilated, shit scared and ready to give birth. It turned out that Olivia had been having contractions since early morning, about 4am, so it was lucky Karen found her, or Olivia would be totally alone.

"Karen don't make me! Can't you do it for me!" Olivia begged as she was being taken round to the delivery room

"Listen kid, you have to do this, just think how much you want this little baby, thats been growing inside of you for months, don't you wanna meet them!" Karen softly replied

I am sorry for my poor writing of sounds,I could not find any better way of writing down in words the kind of sounds a woman in labour makes, and if you haven't guessed by now I am English which is why I spell 'labour' with a 'u' and any other words Americans don't have the letter 'u' in. So i hope you like what i managed to write, and again sorry for my attempt at writing sounds! dont forget to press the little review button down in the corner here...yup left corner just under this writing...over a bit...down a bit...there you are! so write any comments you feel about this story, i love hearing from you guys! xxx
