Okay well I told you things were gonna get shaken up. Hopefully JEN you don't end up wanting to "come to Scotland and kick my ass" as you put it. Please read the whole chapter though and reviews would be very much appreciated,. X

It's not what it seemed.

"… I'm afraid in your fall your babies were knocked and have moved position…"

Peter felt Kelly go limp in his arms.

"Kelly? Baby?" He turned to look at her worried.

"Mrs Gallagher?" The doctor asked while rushing to her bedside signalling for Peter to get off her bed.

He obliged but never let go of her hand. As he stood up her once again recognised a pool of red liquid gathering around her legs.

"Kelly? DO SOMETHING! HELP HER!" Peter yelled,

The doctor lowered the bed and pressed the emergency button. A nurse came running into the room. As he began compressions on her chest.

"Get the crash trolley!" The doctor yelled.

"What's going on!" Peter demanded as four other doctors and nurses entered the room in a hurry.

"Your wife has lost a lot of blood and her heart has stopped. Please stand back!"

Peter wouldn't move. "DO SOMETHING" YOU'RE A BLOODY DOCTOR!" he screamed.

The nurse came running back into the room with the crash trolley handing the doctor the two panels and gelling them.

"Charging 100." The doctor yelled "Clear"

Peter was forced backwards by a male nurse, being forced to let go of her hand.

An electric current was shot through Kelly's body. Peter cried out in disgust as her whole body jumped off the bed but she landed still unconscious.

"Charging 200" the doctor tried, "clear!"

Nothing.

Peter sobbed in the corner.

"Charging 360!" He tried this time.

"DON'T YOU DARE HURT HER!" Peter pleaded fighting against the nurse who still held him back.

"Can you please get him out of here!" The doctor shouted over the noise.

Peter felt two hands grip his arm firmly grip his arm as he was dragged towards the door.

"NO! GET YOUR HANDS OFF ME!"

It was no use he found himself being held in the hall. Crying he placed both hands on the window as he watched the doctors frantically scurrying around his wife.

"Clear"

Zap, another current coursed through her body. But still no effect. They tried again, they failed.

"Call it!" The doctor ordered.

"Time of death 12.43am" the nurse said.

The doctor headed towards the door as he opened it he only had to look up at Peter and his face said everything.

"NO!" peter cried out pushing the doctor out the way as he barged past.. He ran over to her bed and began shaking her.

"NO! BABY WAKE UP!!!!"

" DON'T LEAVE ME!" he scooped her into his arms " I can't live without you." he sobbed into her chest. "I'm nothing without you"

He began shaking he again. "WAKE UP! WAKE UP!"

"Mr Gallagher, she's gone." The nurse spoke.

Peter collapsed to the floor, a river flowing out his eyes as he rested his forehead on the bed.

"I didn't even get to say goodbye." his voice was weak and his heart was broken.

-

"Mr Gallagher? Mr Gallagher, wake up!" The doctor shook Peter's arm.

Peter was roused from his slumber by a male voice and someone shaking his arm. When he opened his eyes the doctor was standing over him looking concerned.

"Mr Gallagher, are you alright?"

"Huh?" Peter rubbed his head. And wiped away the warm tears that rolled over his cheeks.

"You were shouting and crying out. I thought maybe something was wrong."

"Kelly?" Peter's eyes widened.

"Your wife is fine, I just checked her levels and she is sound asleep."

"I…"Peter paused "I dreamt that you came in and told us you had bad news, then she collapsed and you …you couldn't save her." Peter glanced over at Kelly from his position on the chair.

"It was just a dream Mr Gallagher, I came in to check up on you about five past midnight and you were both sound asleep, Your wife on her bed and you on this chair."

Peter thought back, he suddenly remembered wishing his wife a happy New Year and telling her that any New Year is perfect if is spent with her. And then, yes, she fell asleep in his arms and Peter moved to the chair to make more room for her. Peter breathed out a sigh of relief, before looking back at the doctor.

"Sorry, I guess It was just a really really really bad dream." He rubbed his head.

The doctor just smile at him. "I just came in because I got your wife's test results, the babies have moved around slightly, but I'm not too concerned, looks like your wife and both your son and your daughter are going to be absolutely fine."

Peter smiled for the first time since waking up. "Thank you doctor." he shook his hand.

"Your welcome, would you like me to tell your wife or will you do it?" The doctor asked.

"No, no, I'll do it myself."

The doctor just nodded and left the room.

-

Peter perched himself on the edge of Kelly's bed and looked lovingly over his wife while gently rubbing her stomach. Another tear fell down his cheek. His dream had been to realistic for comfort. He stroked Kelly's hair out of her face and bent down to kiss her on the lips. She immediately stirred fluttering her eyes open before looking up at her husband.

"Peter, is everything ok?" she asked looking at his red eyes.

He didn't answer, instead he grabbed her pulling her up into his embrace and hugged her tight.

"Peter what's wrong?" She pulled away to look at him.

"Nothing," He whispered. "you are fine and our babies are fine" he smiled.

Kelly smiled back accepting his invitation for another hug.

"If everything is fine. Then why have you been crying?" Kelly toyed with the hair on the back of his neck as she spoke.

It took him a moment to decide not to tell her about his dream, it would only upset her,

"I just got a bit of a scare baby, that's all." he turned his head to kiss her cheek.

"I'm sorry honey." He heard her whisper.

Peter pulled his head back looking into her eyes and telling her that it wasn't her fault. He leaned in and kissed her, taking her slightly by surprise with the amount of passion incorporated in it. He opened his mouth and waited until she opened hers, then allowing their tongues to meet and their breath to shorten. Peter pulled back and took her face in his hands.

"I love you Kelly Gallagher." He whispered trying to hold back all the emotions he was experiencing.

"I love you too."

They kissed again falling back onto the pillows,

Peter's worst nightmare had almost become reality. His life would have been over and he knew from that moment that he was never going to take anything to do with his family for granted ever.
