Chapter 28

Hailey! Castiel called worryingly as he appeared in her apartment but she was nowhere in sight.

Hailey! He called again and checked the bathroom, then quickly ran into her bedroom and found her unconscious on the floor.

Castiel ran to her side, dropping to the floor. He gently pressed a hand on her sweaty forehead to know what was wrong. He frowned as he placed his other hand and her bump. He closed his eyes and Hailey woke up taking in a big breath, her eyes were big in terror.

The baby- Hailey started saying in panic.

Is alright... everything's okay. Reassured Castiel as he helped her sit up, before he knew it Hailey had pulled him close into a tight hug. He hugged her back and closed his eyes, he had arrived just in time, the baby's heart beat was dangerously low, so was Hailey's.

After a moment Castiel pulled Hailey up to her feet and sat her down on her bed.

We should go to the hospital... Said Castiel. Hailey's eyes widened.

But you said-

Yes I managed to stop the bleeding, but I am no doctor, we should go... just to make sure.

That's when Hailey noticed the wetness down her legs. She nodded at the angel before trying to get up but a wave of dizziness hit her and she quickly sat back down.

Easy, you lost a lot of blood...

I need to change... Can you grab me some clothes?

Of course.

Castiel opened her draws and quickly pulled out her new clothes and placed it in her hands. Hailey seemed lost in thought.

I'll just be outside the door, if you need anything.

Okay. Answered Hailey not bothering to look up.

Once the door was closed Hailey managed to get changed and walked slowly to the door. She opened it and Castiel was waiting for her with her coat and purse in his hands. He helped her into her coat and handed her, her purse.

Ready? He asked and Hailey nodded still in a daze.

Castiel gently put both hands on her upper arms and both of them disappeared.

Once they had appeared outside the hospital Castiel quickly got a wheelchair and sat Hailey in it. Once they arrived at the front desk and Castiel had explained he had found her unconscious and she had lost some blood, Hailey was taking into a room of the maternity unit. They had quickly strapped a monitor around her belly and spent the night taking blood samples and a few ultrasounds. They told Hailey to rest and a doctor would come see her in the morning. Castiel spent the remaining of the night standing next to Hailey, watching her sleep.

The sun was up for about an hour when a doctor finally walked into the room, holding Hailey's chart in hand. Castiel stood straighter.

Good morning, I'm doctor Hills. You must be the father... Doctor Hills greeted Castiel.

No, no I am not the father... I'm-

He's my guardian angel. Hailey answered, who had woken up when the doctor started talking and smiled warmly at Castiel, who he returned a worried one back.

Well seeing he brought you here, and from I heard from the nurses has been watching over you all night... I agree. Smiled the doctor and lightly patted Castiel's shoulder before walking closer to Hailey's bed.

I have the results of the tests here and... You seem to have a low uterus, which can cause bleeding and tearing for the placenta wall. We couldn't find a rip but sometimes they are well hidden... If, your guardian had found you later... You could have been in early labor or the rip could've caused hemorrhaging and he could have lost both of you... So you were really lucky miss Singer, we have been giving you Terbutaline, which is used to stop the contractions we detected from the monitor. Your blood samples also reveal low blood sugar and some of your minerals were also low... Miss Singer, have you been eating well the past few weeks?

I might have skipped a few meals, here and there... With work and all... Hailey answered a bit ashamed.

Well that shouldn't be a problem anymore... Have you been stressed lately?

You mean besides the fact that I'm a single mother, alone with no clue what's going to happen?

The doctor gave Hailey a compassionate smile.

How about sleep? Getting enough?

I've never been much of a sleeper... Hailey answered vaguely but also truthfully.

All right, well, I'll have the papers for your employer ready, soon. You will not be going back to work. We will keep you a few days to make sure your vitals are strong and stable. Once we release you I want you to stay off your feet as much as possible. I will also give you a prescription for a light sedative to help with sleep, don't worry it will not harm the baby, just help you relax. We'll want you to come by about every other week, to make sure things are going as they should... You were really lucky Miss Singer. Now get some rest, breakfast should be served soon.

Thank you doctor. Hailey said.

Yes, thank you doctor. Added Castiel, who was listening silently to their exchange.

I'm sure I can count on you to make sure Miss Singer follows what I said?

Yes. Of course. Nodded Castiel.

The doctor nodded and walked out the room. Hailey patted the hospital bed beside her, wanting Castiel to sit next to her. As he did she grabbed his hand in hers.

Thank you Castiel, if you hadn't... showed up...

I should have been there... I should have came when you asked, maybe I could have notice something was-

Cas... Hailey stopped his guilty rant, using the nick name for the first time.

Things just got very complicated, I wasn't mad about you kicking me out. I deserved that. I am still very sorry about-

Hey, you didn't sleep with Anna... Dean did and I shouldn't have kicked you out. I'm sorry. Cas, your my only true friend now. All you ever did was, well save my stupid ass. God I think I lost count on how many times you did save my life... Hailey laughed at the last part, squeezing his hand. She seemed to think a moment.

Why? She asked and received a confused look by Castiel.

Why do you keep saving me?

The child you are carrying could be the answer of ending all evil-

I wasn't always carrying a child Castiel... My first crossing with Lilith... I should have died. Then when I tried to summon her... Or did you always know I was going to have that child? Hailey asked and Castiel was trying to find the right words.

No... I did not always know about the child... I have been keeping an eye on the Winchester for a while now. The hunters rarely were happy, and who can blame them... But when they were around you... they were. The love both of them shared for you was- is... powerful. I started taking an interest to know why. What was so special about you... And then... I have never met a human with so much compassion, strength, selflessness... I couldn't let anything happen to you. You are the best human I know Hailey. Hailey listened and a tear slip down her cheek.

Well... you're not so bad yourself, Cas. She smiled warmly but the moment was cut off by a nurse placing a tray of food on the table with wheels and Castiel got up, letting the nurse place the table and tray in front of Hailey.

Author's note: Okay Sorry I let you guys hang in the cliff hanger, not. ;) I know small chapter... I'm just taking the time to think if I want to continue the path of Dean not finding out about the baby till... well a couple of seasons down the road ( and skipping a few seasons) Or get the Drama of Dean finding out she's pregnant out already. I know this might seem like I'm going for a Castiel-Hailey pairing but I assure you this is still going to be a Dean-Hailey story... eventually... maybe ;) Anywhooo leave me a message in pm or review what you guys would like to see this story go. I know this is a short chapter but I do have kids and I promised to go to the park. I might have a chapter ready for you guys tonight, especially if I have reviews/pm waiting for me with ideas. Thanks again for sticking to this story it does mean a lot xxx Till next time!

Newbie.
