Sorry it's been so long
"Congratulations Sam it is a baby boy." Tess's voice rung over the baby's cries. Sam herself was in tears from hearing her baby's cries. Tom quickly rapped the baby in a white towel and handed it to Sam who was sitting up properly trying to see her little bundle of surprise. As soon as the little baby was in Sam's arms its cry's toned down and it opened its eyes revelling bright sea blue orbs. This caused Zoe to gasp as she remembered Sam's shout about Dylan. "Hello baby boy I'm your mummy and I'm going to look after you best I can and help you grow big and strong."Sam whispered to her new tiny son who had a head of blond hair resting on his little, pink head. Fletch chuckled at the new mother's words along with Tom as they were remembering their own childhood days with their mothers being over protective. "Come on baby let's take you up to the SBCU" Tom said feeling a little like he was intruding on the happy little moment. Sam quickly passed the baby over after kissing its little tiny head.
"Can I go see him now Zoe? Please." Sam pleaded with her clinical lead. She missed her little Christmas surprise already. She was so worried about him being alone up in the SBCU. Zoe just pulled a chair up next to the bed and sat down motioning for Tess to leave them alone. It was time for a chat. "So Dylan's the father. When you going to tell him?" Zoe asked as she couldn't imagine Dylan playing daddy at all especially with a new born baby. Zoe was worried for her ex army doctor friend. Dylan had left a few weeks ago confessing he was still in love with Sam. She still hadn't heard from him and was wondering if Sam had a way of contacting him about their child. "Yes he is the father. I'm planning of calling him and asking him to come up to the SBCU. Then I will explain what I know." Sam replied tired. All she wanted was to check on her son yet she was going to be given twenty questions by her boss. This was just great. Ignoring her bosses rant about Dylan playing daddy she thought back to her pregnancy.
She had put on a bit of weight but Sam wore baggy clothes a lot and didn't really look in the mirror because of being so insecure of her appearance. She couldn't believe she has missed the bump. Even Zoe had commented on her looking a little chubby a few weeks ago. She hadn't had any morning sickness. Wait she suddenly thought. The mystery illness she had a few months ago. It lasted only for a few weeks but every morning she was sick. She felt so stupid. She was meant to be a doctor and yet she couldn't work out she was pregnant.
She looked up and saw Zoe's confused face. She hadn't realised she was so out of it. Sam opened her mouth to ask to see her son when Tom walked in. "Hey Sam you can go see your little soldier now." Tom said whilst giving her a hand up. She brushed him away and pulled herself up ignoring Tom's glance. "How is he? Is he ok? How much does he weigh? Who's looking after him up their?" Sam asked with worry in her voice. She was so scared as he had been born early and throughout the pregnancy she had still been drinking at times. "He's fine just a little on the small side. He may have to stay in for a while but it all looks good."Tom said trying to calm down the worried mother. He pulled out a wheelchair and tried to get Sam to sit on it. Tried being a key word. "I am perfectly fine Tom. I don't need a stupid wheelchair." Sam reasoned with the other doctors. Tom, ignoring her protests, just picked her up like she weighed nothing and place her in the chair. He pushed her out of the small, stuffy cubical.
Sam's eyes filled with tears when she saw her little boy in an incubator. Tom was right there wasn't much wrong with apart from the fact that he was small and he couldn't breathe on his own well. He had wires all over him and he looked so scared. Tom sat beside her and grabbed her hand in his as he knew that she needed a lot of support right now. He turned to face her and saw little tears falling down her face. Her eyes were locked onto the poor young baby. "So Sam thought of any names yet?" Tom said trying to break her out of her depressed trance. She turned to him with confusion all over her face. She had completely forgotten about naming her son. So far she had referred to him as her son or CM (Christmas Miracle). She knew better than to name him without Dylan's opinion. She turned her head towards the baby again before sighing. "I'm going to have to wait until I can get Dylan to come and explain it to him. He deserves to have a say in his son's name" Sam explained tiredly. She felt bad having this conversation with Tom. A few weeks ago they were madly in love, now they were talking about naming her son who she had with her ex husband. It seemed weird how quickly things could turn around she thought. "Are you positive that Dylan is the father?"Tom asked conserved but he regretted it when he was saw the murderous look on Sam's face. Opps he thought he knew better than to mess with an angry, tired and worried Sam. "Of course I'm sure. He is the only person I was with seven months ago." She whispered screamed so she wouldn't wake the sleeping babies or disturb their parents. There was venom dripping with each word and Tom struggled to make a complete sentence. Zoe quickly walked in saving Tom from an angry Sam. She took a glance around the room and motioned for Tom to leave which he did do gladly. Zoe went and sat down in the now empty chair next to Sam. "Sam it's time you told Dylan," Zoe said trying to be careful to choose her words. All she got in reply was Sam sighing and pulling out her mobile phone.
