Blueberry Blue
Chapter Eleven
Last Chapter Before Epilogue!!
After a few moments of total and utter concentration, Jude opened her eyes and started coughing. The doctor ran up to her side, "Jude, Jude you're awake. Can you hear me?"
Jude nodded, "What happened?"
The doctor smiled, relieved, "Your voice sounds fine, do you have any trouble breathing?"
Jude shook her head no. A nurse who had a stethoscope up to Jude's chest gave the doctor a thumbs up sign. People started to clear out, the gravity of the situation lessening.
Jude looked up at the doctor, "Where are Paul and Reid?"
The doctor looked at the young girl confused, "Who and who? There are only nurses and myself in here ma'am. You were dreaming."
"They saved me, I know they did." Jude whispered to herself before closing her eyes and allowing them to move her to a quieter room.
The doctors stitched up Jude's head and gave her a few transfusions. They also had to stitch up her stomach and near her collarbone where some deep gashes were located. Her hip was badly bruised and a few ribs were cracked. But other than that there were just a few scratches and bruises on her skin. Jude opened her eyes about an hour after she was brought in to see a nurse waiting there for her. She smiled when Jude opened her eyes and informed her of her injuries.
The doctor walked out to the waiting room, leaving the nurse to wait for Jude to wake up. "Jude Harrison?" She asked. Sadie, Tommy, John, Spied, Wally, Kyle, Lucas, Caleb, Isabella, Tyler, Kylee, and Amber all stood. The doctor looked at all of them, "Um, family?"
Sadie, John, Lucas, Caleb, Isabella, Tyler, Kylee, and Amber all stepped forward. "Intermediate family?" The doctor tried again. Once again, the group stepped forward.
"Guys, help me out here."
Sadie and John stepped forward, "I'm her sister," Sadie spoke. "And I'm her boyfriend," John said. Making Tommy scoff and roll his eyes.
The doctor smiled sadly, "Miss Harrison has a lot of injuries. She has bumps, bruises, and scratches all over her body, making everything very uncomfortable. She needed a few blood transfusions but her body reacted well to them. We needed to stitch up her head, a deep gash on her stomach, and also one near her shoulder. She will be in some pain for a while but she should heal up just fine. We have her on some pain medication for right now but she will still feel mild discomfort. I'll admit, it was touch and go there for awhile, but she pulled through just fine."
Sadie gasped and John nodded, distressed. She looked between the two of them. "Is she currently living with someone? Someone that can help her through daily activities?"
John looked casually behind him at Tommy, who was watching them trying to listen. "Technically she's still living with Tommy but she's been staying with me and the rest of her family for quite awhile. There will always be someone there for her, don't worry."
The doctor nodded, relieved. "Alright, then I wouldn't recommend a home nurse. But there's one more thing…" She looked to Sadie, "Could you excuse us?"
Sadie nodded, looked at John questionably before walking back to her seat. She sat next to Tommy and leaned forward with him, both trying to listen.
"How long have you and Miss Harrison been dating? And has she been seeing anyone else?" She asked John. John thought back, "About a month, and no."
The doctor nodded, "Okay, and have you two been sexually active?" John nodded, "Once when we first got together but no, not recently. Why? Is everything alright?"
The doctor looked down at her clipboard and she nodded, "Everything's alright, but there's something else I needed to ask you. Before she dated you, was she sexually active with anyone else? Maybe in a relationship right before you two got together."
John looked back at Tommy, "Yeah, that guy right there. But why? Is everything alright?"
The doctor looked up a John, a sad expression on her face. "Miss Harrison is pregnant. Three months along to be exact. I'm surprised she hasn't noticed. She isn't showing yet but she should be well into odd cravings, back pains, and morning sickness."
John nodded, "She just started feeling queasy, she thought it was the flu. We all did."
Tommy stood, having heard everything. He walked over to John and the doctor, "Can I see her?"
The doctor looked at John quickly before nodding and pointing him in the direction of the room. Tommy printed down there before she could even mutter the name of the room.
Tommy found the room without a problem and walked in to see the nurse holding Jude's hand over her stomach. Jude had tears in her eyes. "And everything's okay? The accident didn't do any damage?"
The nurse smiled and shook her head, Jude sighed a sigh of relief and rubbed her stomach lightly, "My baby."
Tommy walked further into the room and smiled, taking Jude's other hand.
"Jude…" Tears stung both their eyes. "Tommy!! I'm so sorry!"
Tommy wrapped his arms around Jude as she let go of the nurse's hand and buried her face in his chest.
"Oh Jude…shh…. it's okay baby, I'm here." Tommy soothed. When they both calmed down Tommy pulled away and held her at arm's length. "Jude, I love you. We're going to be a family. Please, trust me again."
Jude started to cry tears of happiness. "Jude, I don't want to lose you again. Will you marry me?"
Jude opened her mouth to speak but at that moment the door opened and John walked in.
