Ana's P.O.V

I sit there closing my eyes, holding Kate tight letting my tears silently roll down my cheeks as Leila concentrates on aiming for my head.

I'm helpless, in the few seconds I've got left all I can do is think of Christian and all the good times we've had together already..All that's keeping me from uncontrollably sobbing is that when Christian eventually finds me here, I don't want him to see my red, blotchy, tear-stained face to remember me by.

The door barged open just as her finger released the trigger.

I felt a shock to my system, there was a burning sensation raging through my body, it hurt like hell. Was I hell? Did her shot kill me?

All I could think of was please don't say she had killed me, if not for me then for this poor baby I'm carrying. I really want this baby and
myself to live.

Damn Leila.

Damn Christian and his fucking past.

Damn Kate for ever getting ill and making me interview him that day.

And damn me, for all I could hear was my name being screamed over and over again before the darkness took over.

Christian's P.O.V

I started to fidget with the buttons on my shirt as I became more anxious.

Then we arrived.

I took a deep breath and looked at the door, which was slightly open.

"Something's not right." Elliot said, his face full of concern.

With nothing more said I ran out of the car and barged through the door.

I was shocked at the scene infront of me.

Leila was standing there, her eyes wide as she looked at me then I saw the gun drop from her hand down to the floor as her bottom lip
started to tremble and I immediately searched the room for Ana.

Her body was passed out in the arms of a crying Kate.

My heart stopped beating in that moment and I started screaming Ana's name as I ran towards her.

"Ana! Ana! Ana wake up, baby please!"

I held her in my arms and felt a warm liquid spreading across my shirt.

My eyes were frantically checking her body up and down searching for where the blood was coming from.

I gasped as I saw the blood was escaping from the side of her waist.

Oh fuck, she might lose this baby..because of me and my fucking past!

I screamed at Elliot, "Drive me to the hospital now! And for fuck sake will you ring Taylor and ask him to take care of Leila."

I picked up Ana and cradled her to my chest, thinking of what could have happened if Leila hadn't of missed her target, and shot a bullet right through Ana's skull.

A tear fell from my eye, as I sat impatiently waiting for Ana to wake up in m arms.

Then more tears fell, until I felt movement in my arms, Oh Ana!

"Chri..Ow, my side..what happened?" She asked, looking into to my tear-filled eyes as I quickly wiped away the hostile tears.

"It's okay baby, we're going to the hospital you're safe now."

"But..but, what about Leila? She shot me Christian! She almost killed me! Ow my side, please Christian don't let me or the baby die,
please." She started to sob into my chest and it took a lot of force to not cry back, into her hair.

"I know baby, I'm sorry. So, so sorry. Taylor's taking care of Leila."

She looks up at me and the cute v has formed on her forehead.

"Taking care of? What like.."

Not wanting her jumping to conclusions, I ended her sentence.

"Putting her in a mental institution where she can get the help she needs? Yeah, that."

Speaking of, I need to make sure Taylor definitely secured her and got to her before she fled the scene.

I hate to think of what could have happened if she left before Taylor got there.

I can hear Kate still crying up front with Elliot.

"Kate it's okay, she's awake now."

Kate turned around and started to cry with relief.

We arrive at the hospital and I quickly open the door and carry Ana into the hospital.

We were met by my mother, who was shocked to see us..twice in 24 hours, wow you take good care of yourself and Ana, no wonder you're scared of being a shit father!

My subconscious witted at me.

Ana's P.O.V

The bullet, it only skimmed my side..it didn't sink into it so the impact of the bullet was less horrific than it felt.

Grace assured me that everything was fine, including the baby and was going to do an ultrasound.

The pain I felt seemed worse than it should have, but it was made better by my two favourite drugs..meds and Christian.

The whole time he had stayed with me, and briefly explained the circumstances to his mother who was still confused of why someone
would attempt to kill me and why Christian wanted to help them get better.

Grace wanted me to have an ultrasound just to check, but I was unsure whether or not I wanted Christian in the room with me..considering his reaction to the news, anyway.

"Time for the ultrasound, Ana." I nodded at Dr. Greene and looked at Christian, whose eyes were wide.

"You don't have to stay, Christian."

He looked at me like I just slapped him across the face.

"No, of course I'm going to stay..it is our baby afterall." He holds my hand and smiles, and with hearing those words a tear escapes my eye.

Finally he's beginning to understand?

"This will feel cold and possibly uncomfortable." Dr. Greene said, smiling at me.

I squirmed as she squeezed the cold gel onto my stomach.

"There is your baby, the foetus is around 9 weeks and all looks healthy."

I am, yet again, mesmerized by the little jellybean shaped baby on the screen.

I looked at Christian, who has tears forming in his eyes like mine.

"That's our baby Christian. Our little jellybean."

I blink through some of the tears to keep my vision slightly visible as I look from the screen to Christian's face, loving both views equally.

"Ana, I'm sorry..so sorry that I saw this as a bad thing. Somehow, this is a good thing, right?"

I can only begin to imagine how much he means those words, but I'm glad he's seeing sense.

"Of course Christian, our own little family. Somehow, we'll make it work..I promise."

I felt the warm tears trickling down my face, from both me and Christian as he leant forward and kissed me deeply.

"Well everything seems fine, so I'll speak with Grace on your update and leave you two to it, but take it easy and that means no sex."

I blushed as I forgot that Dr. Greene was actually there and at her words..Oh god, how embarrassing 'no sex' she knows us too well..

But I was just enjoying how perfect my life finally seemed to be

Or at least she thought..
