Chapter 16

Andrea pulled the car back into the hospital parking lot smiling. Kristy got out and grabbed her jacket then waited on Andrea to lock the door. Andrea grabbed her jacket and pocketbook.

"I wont tell anyone." Kristy said as they both walked to the hospital.

Andrea smiled at her and hugged her as hey walked down the hallway to where Charles's room was. They had been gone for 3 hours as they walked into the room. Right as Andrea walked into the room Mellena looked up and jumped down from the bed and ran over to her and jumpped into her arms making her laugh.

"How are you doing?" asked Andrea looking at Mellena smiling.

"I'm doing fine after my nap. I woke up to daddy talking to uncle nelson and uncle allen something to do with you." Mellena said laughing.

Kristy grabbed Mellena away from Andrea as she walked over to Charles who had the rings on. She looked at Allen who was smiling brightly.

"I had to put them on becuase that damn nurse came in here started hitting on me. Allen showed his and said oh baby dont you think that outfit is so cute on her. He made it seem like I was gay!" Charles said laughing as he tried to hit Allen with a pillow.

Andrea laughed at him as she went over to the bed and sat down in the chair as Kristy,Nelson, and Allen talked to Mellena who was smiling like crazy. The doctor walked into the room making everyone look up.

"We are going to be do surgery in a few hours." He said making Andrea nodded as she grabbed Charles's hand.

He walked out of the room once more leaving the group alone. Mellena hopped down onto her dad's bed and crawled over to him and laid down beside him.

"You come back daddy ok? I dont want to lose you." Mellena said kissing his cheek making everyone smile.

"Yes you better come back Charles Ashenoff because you've got a daughter to raise and you've got a girlfriend who is hot for you." Andrea said kissing his cheek.

"Dawg you come back so we can have a mouth piece for LAX and plus I need a man to be in my wedding." Nelson said smiling brightly.

Andrea looked at Kristy then at Nelson who was smiling brightly. Allen looked at them with a confused look on his face making Mellena laugh.

"When?" asked Charles smiling.

"Well it happen at the movies where Mellena was jumpping up and down about it. The lady thought she was our kid and said its is about time you got married." Kristy replied putting her left hand up showing the ring.

Nelson kissed Kristy on the head and looked at Andrea who was smiling brightly.

"I know its early but hey we have something for Charles to look forward to." Nelson said looking at Andrea who was laughing.

Mellena crawled Charles's lap and into Andrea's who was talking to Kristy as the doctor walked into the room once more.

"Dr.Dresden ready for Mr.Ashenoff now." the nurse said as she walked into the room.

Everyone moved away from the bed as she helped him get out of bed to put him in a chair. Andrea looked at Kristy as they wheeled him out. She held onto Mellena as she waved at him going down the hallway.

"Come on guys lets go get something to eat and we can come back here." Allen said putting his arm around his sister's shoulder.

Andrea nodded at him as the group walked a head of her and Mellena. Mellena put her arms around her neck and started to cry.She stopped walking and looked at Mellena then at the group.

"Guys we will meet up with you guys later at Ruby Tuesday." Andrea shouted as they nodded at her.

She walked over to a set of chairs and sat down in one. She pulled Mellena away from her neck and looked at her. Mellena started to cry worse.

"Shhhh baby its ok." whispered Andrea holding onto her.

"My mommy doesn't want me and I dont want daddy to leave because then he leaves I'll have to go back to her and I dont want too. She does things." whispered Mellena into Andrea's neck.

Andrea pulled Mellena back and wiped her tears away then kissed her on the cheeks. Mellena kinda smiled brightly at her then frowned.

"What did your mom do to you Mellena?" asked Andrea looking at Mellena who's eyes got big.

"Mommy uhh kinda hits me." whipsered Mellena making Andrea get stiff.

"What do you mean by kinda?' Andrea asked looking at her.

Mellena held up her shirt sleeve and showing Andrea all kinds of bruises going down her arm. Andrea turned her around and lefted up her shirt making Andrea get mad.

"Hey Andre.." Kristy said but stopped when she saw Mellena's back.

"We are coming now and I want to talk to you." Andrea said getting up and holding onto Mellena.

Right as Andrea turned around she saw Juana standing there tapping her foot looking at the three of them. Andrea gave Mellena to Kristy who was looking upset as well. Andrea walked over to where Juana was and smiled at her.

"So you hit my daughter." Andrea said smirking her.

"Your daughter? You didn't give birth that little brat and plus yes I did she needs to be shown how things work!"shouted Juana pointing at Mellena.

Andrea turned around walked just a bit towards Kristy and Mellena then turned back around and punched Juana in the face. Juana fell to the floor and held onto her jaw as she looked up towards Andrea who was standing over her. Andrea pulled Juana up by her shirt and put her against the wall.

"Mellena might not be my daughter but I have known her since she was born Juana and I am not sorry that I am dating Charles right now. But right now I want you to get the hell away from Mellena,Charles, and ME!" shouted Andrea punching her in the face.

Juana didn't bother looking at Mellena and walked down the hallway and out of the door. Andrea put her fist down then turned around as she looked at Mellena who was smiling brightly at Andrea.

"Go Mommy!"shouted Mellena clapping her hands smiling.

Kristy put Mellena down on the floor as she grabbed both Andrea and Kristy's hand.
