I don't own commander in chief
Thanks for all your reviews, I really want to do well with this story and it is so sad, I was nearly in tears with the last chapter.
Horace and Stacey fell asleep on her bed, Mac and Rod would never normally let them sleep in the same room, but tonight was different she really needed him. Mac went up to Amy's room she needed to explain to her what was going on.
Mac: Amy darling you know that Stacey is going to be staying here for a while
Amy: Yeah why can't one of my friends come and stay?
Mac: Stacey is sick and she can't live with her Mom and Dad anymore, so she is going to live here with us
Amy: I won't catch what she has will I
Mac: No honey. Stacey is very sick baby, she is going to need to sleep a lot which means that you have to be very quiet, and be very gentle with her
Amy: Will the doctor make her all better
Mac: No sometimes people get really sick and the doctor can't help them
Amy started to cry, she liked Stacey. She was nicer to her than Becca was sometimes.
Amy: Mommy is she going to die?
Mac: Yes darling, and I need for you to be very brave around Stacey, if you are upset then come to me, Daddy or Grandma
Amy: I don't want Stacey to die, I like her
Amy cried herself to sleep that night in Mac's arms.
Mac then went into Rebecca's room to find her daughter in her bed crying. Mac sat on her bed and wiped the tears from her daughters eyes.
Rebecca: Mom this is so unfair
Mac: I know it is baby
Rebecca: Do the press know yet?
Mac: No they still think it is me who is sick, Honey Kelly is preparing a statement and in the morning we will give it to the press after Stacey reads it to make sure everything she wants said is in it.
Rebecca: Is Kelly going to say it or you
Mac: Probably me and Dad, now I want you take this
Dr Wilson had given Mac some sedatives for Rebecca as Mac knew she would find it difficult to sleep. Rebecca took them and a few minutes later she was asleep.
Mac went back down Kelly's office.
Kelly: Ma'am are you OK
Kelly had never seen the president like this she looked terrible.
Mac: Yes I am fine, the Kids are all upset
Kelly: I would think they would be, I have prepared a statement for you
Mac read Kelly's statement which just explained what was wrong with Stacey and that she would be staying in the Whitehouse for the foreseeable future.
Mac then went up to bed where she and Rod talked about everything that happened that day.
Please review.
