Chapter 20
I know nothing about Medicate.
Sam and Jason were sitting in the exams room of General Hospital both were a little nervous.
Sam could hardly sit still her hand that Jason was holding was shacking and her knee's were bouncing.
" Hey you ok" Jason asked
" Yeah just a little nervous that's all and thanks for being here with me" she said with a small smile
" Where else would I be" he asked playing with her hair
" No where but here with us" she said with a smile and patting her stomach
Dr. Lee walked in with Sam's file and test results.
Looking at the couple she had to smile they were finally blessed with the miracle they so desperately wanted years ago.
" Well it look's like you are indeed pregnant about 16 weeks along. But I want to check and make sure everything is ok. Please lay down on the table with your shirt pulled up " Dr. Lee said walking around to the ultrasound machine
Sam did as she was told with Jason sitting in the stool next to the table still holding her hand..
Sam flinched when the gel was placed on her stomach.
" Guess you never get use to temperature huh" Sam asked with a smile
" Afraid not " Dr. Lee said stating the exam
It took a couple of tries but she able to find the babies heart beat.
" Listen Jason it sounds so strong"
" Yeah" he said kind of awed by it .
"No matter how many times you hear the first heartbeat of a child it still get to you" Jason said out loud
" The heartbeat is strong and it's like the baby is growing at a nice pace but a little under weight everything looks good. Would you like to know the sex of the baby" she asked
They looked at one another Jason shrugged his shoulder at her.
" No I want to be surprised" Sam told the doctor
" Ok then do you have any question" Dr. Lee asked
" Will there be any repercussions from my shooting" Sam asked
" Surprisingly no it seems that the surgery you received after the shooting help heal the tear's in your uterus and time also helped. I know this must be a shock but your healthy enough to have a full term pregnancy. Just no stress and I want to monitor you thru this so I want to see you twice a month from now on" the doctor told her
" What about her apperitite and food she should eat" Jason asked
" I'll give you a list and what's wrong with her appetite" Dr. Lee asked
Jason knew Sam wasn't going to answer the question so he did.
" She doesn't have one. One minute she's hungry and then when the food is in front of her she's not hungry anymore" he said
" Well she can either force herself to eat that option one. But option two I don't think you will allow that" she said
" What number two" Sam asked
" Some of the patience I had who couldn't eat smoked weed to gain an appetite and it seemed to work with no rise to the baby at all" she said shrugging her shoulder's
" I think I'll just force myself I don't want to use drugs never had and never will" Sam said
" Ok so I'll leave and let you get dress. You can fill your prescription at the pharmacy . Congratulation you two deserve it" Dr. Lee said walking out of the room
Everything was settled and done with at the hospital and now the duo were sitting in Sam's living room.
" Can you believe it this little one is healthy with no complicating what so ever" Sam said with a big smile
All Jason could do was star at her she was so happy and beautiful.
They were finally getting there wish to have a family and be happy.
" Sam what are we going to do about the living arrangements" Jason asked
" I thought we benched this discussion until later" she said not wanting to talk about this right now
" The baby will be coming in five months and we both know those months will fly by fast. Both of our apartments are to small" he said
" So what do you propose then "she asked
" We should buy a house" Jason said
Sam got up and started to pace around.
" Jason I'm not rolling around in money. The extra cash I had was used on Hayden and Adele. We live from paycheck to paycheck. There is no way I can afford to pay off a mortgage" she said still pacing
" Sam I can buy the house outright and both of our names will be on the deed. If I knew that you didn't have any extra cash I would have helped why didn't you ask me" he asked
" I don't want you buying me a house like you did Elizabeth. There was no reason to ask you for money I do work"
" This isn't the same as when I brought Elizabeth a house and you know it Sam so what's the real problem" he said getting up now
" Isn't it Jason. She's a mother who cant seem to take care of her own children or find a place to live without someone's help. And another thing how are you going to claim my children when you could claim Jake. Wasn't he giving up so he could be safe what about mine will they be safe ." she asked
" That's low and you know it" Jason said walking towards the window
" All I'm asking is why was it so easy for you give your son up but you want me to share my kids with you" Sam said sitting back on the couch
" You are nothing like her something I already knew. I can claim our kids because I feel more of a connection to them then I do to Jake. Yes I miss him everyday but apart of me feels that Lucky is his father and not me" he said with his back towards her
" Don't you want a chance to get to know your first born. It'll be hypercritical to raise this one and his siblings while Jake is raised by someone else"
Sam was now standing behind Jason with her arms around his waist and her head resting on his shoulder blade.
" Of course I want to raise and get to know him but what am I suppose to do up and disrupt his life" he said leaning his head on the window
" You wont be disrupting it your be adding to it he deserves a chance to get to know his dad Lucky thinks so too. We talked about it one day at the office"
" I'll talk to Lucky and Elizabeth later. But right now I want your answer on the living arrangements" he said
" Fine we'll find a house but it has to have enough room's for Alexis because you know once the baby comes she wont leave" Sam said snuggling into him
" What about Maxie, Claudia, and Carly you know they wont leave either" he said laughing
" I almost forgot about them but I want something simple nothing flashy and I want Monica and Edward to have a place in the baby life no arguments" she said kissing his neck
" Anything for you" Jason whispered
" I'm sorry for the low blow"
" Already forgiving" he told her
