Hey guys, OMG I cant believe I got 24 reviews on last chapter!
I am so sorry for not publishing on Friday! My internet didn't work and when it finally did, FF decided to be annoying and the desktop mode didn't work, so I couldn't update. But since I felt so bad for not update I did it now (even though I am at school...)
Anyway I am sure you don't want to listen to me rumble, here is it... That Unexpected Phone Call chapter 4!
Disclaimer: I own nothing but Anna, Kayla, Austin siblings and the plot!
Chapter 4
Austin POV
Two days late
So it's been two days since I found out about Annabelle. Ally is yet to wake up but the doctors are optimistic. Though, at least until Ally wakes up, I had to sign a guardianship papers so that Anna can stay with me.
But the good news is that today Anna is being discharged from the hospital and I can finally take her home. Since my house is in Miami and I think Anna needs some familiarity, I decided to take her back to Ally's apartment for the time being. Nick and Jen wanted to meet her but I told them that they should come after we get settled in in Ally's apartment.
"Daddy, I'm ready." I heard the sweet voice of my beautiful baby girl. She was dressed in new cloths I bought for her, since the ones she wore the day off the accident were destroyed with blood from her arm. Now she is wearing a Mini mouse short sleeve cotton light blue hoodie and short demine pants, and white sandals with a blue flower on them(*).
"Okay princess, do you want to stop at mommy's room before going home?" I asked her softly. For the past two days, every day after waking up and eating breakfast, Anna would ask me to take her to 'mommy's room'. There Anna would talk to her about everything and nothing and every night she would ask to go again and kiss Ally goodnight. Now it's 4PM and she already went in the morning, but I thought that, since we won't be here anymore, she would want to see her.
"Yes daddy, I want to tell her that I am going home and I won't be here tomorrow morning to tell her good morning." She answered.
"Okay, than come on." I said and took her hand and we walked together to Ally's room.
She still had the tube that's helps her breath and those who monitor her breathing and heart. I lift Anna up to the bed and sit her next to Ally's head. Then I sat on the chair that was in the room.
"Hey mommy, Dr. Col said that I can go home today!" She said excited, but then her smile fell. "I just wish that you could have come home too but Dr. Col said that you have to wake up first. I love daddy but I miss you mommy!" I wasn't to hear you sing to me again, please wake up! I need you mommy!" She said her voice breaking slowly until it completely breaks at the end, and I could see the tears in her eyes starting to fall slowly.
I couldn't stand it, so I got up from where I was sitting and took my baby girl in my arms. I held her tight and rocked her back and forth until she relaxed.
I put her down again, and climbed on the bed. She put her little face to Ally's hear and whispered (loudly) "I love you mommy!" and then kissed Ally's cheek.
She climbed out of the bed and went to sand by the door, waiting for me to come to take home.
"Can you go sit outside for a second baby? I just need a minute with mommy. After it I will come take you home." I told her softly.
"Okay daddy." She said sweetly and we out of the door to the corridor.
I sat on the edge of Ally's bed and took her hand. ""Please wake up fast, our daughter needs you, I need you! I am not sure if I can be a good father without you, but I promise I will do my best, I won't let either of you down. You two are the two most important people in my life!" I said and kissed her forehead. I caressed her cheek and got up to go Anna but when I got to the room's door I turned around and got back to the bed, leaned down and pressed my lips to hers. "I am sorry but I had to try, I love you so much!" I wiped the tear I that slipped from my eye and went outside to see Anna sitting on a chair next to the door with her teddy bear, hugging it for dear life.
"Hey baby, are you ready to go home?" I asked her, caressing her long, wavy blonde hair.
"Yes, daddy, I am." She said softly, getting up from the chair.
"Good, let's go." I said putting my hand out for her to take. Once she took my hand we made our way to my car. I sent my driver back to Miami after finding out about Anna since he was hired only to take me to New York ( I hate flying so I always use a car as long as the place I need to get to is inside the US. And lacily my car has a car seat I bought for when I take Kayla out. As we got to the car I strapped her in the car seat and got in the driver seat. Dr. Colman gave me Ally's address so I can take Anna there and I got the keys from Ally's purse. I put the address in my GPS since I don't really know my way around New York and started my way to Ally's apartment.
When we got to the address I got from Dr. Colman I saw it was an apartment complex. I looked at the review mirror only to see Annasound asleep.
I got out of the car, took Anna's beg first putting it over my shoulder, then I got her out, holding her in my arms, she stirred a bit but then just put her head in the crock of my neck and fell asleep again. After making sure she is still a sleep and that she is secured in my arms I locked the door and walked to the building's entrance.
I got in to the building and went up to the elevator, just as I got to the elevator its doors opened and a woman who looked in her mid-seventies got out of it. She had some heavy looking bags with her and I felt bad for her and decided to help her.
"Good After noon ma'am, would you like some help?" I asked the lady.
"Oh thank you young man, but you have a little girl sleeping in your arms; you should go put her to bed." The lady said kindly. I was confused for a second, 'what little girl?' but then I remembered Anna, hoe I could forget about her, I don't know.
"Oh don't worry ma'am, I can just put her on the couch help your and then get her upstairs." I said after I saw a couch that was in the complex' lobby. I could see that she is about to protest, but I can't an old lady carry those heavy looking begs when I can help her. "I promise you, it's okay, I want to help you." I said and walked to the couch, I put Anna there and she stirred a bit, but didn't wake up. When I put her on the couch I put her lying on her back, so her face was now visible.
The old lady came closer to look at my baby girl. I saw her facial expression turning from confusion to shock and then it turned to anger. I was just about to ask what was wrong when her purse collided with my face. She just smacked my face with her purse!
"What the hell?" I asked her shocked. Why did she do that?!
"Why do you have her? Where is Ally? Where is her mother? What did you do to her?" She yelled at me angry. Then I finally realized what happened, she probably knows Ally and Anna, and for the past two days they haven't been home, and now I come, a man she doesn't know with the little girl, but without the mother. She probably thought I did something to Ally and kidnaped Anna or something.
"No, ma'am, please you got it…" I started but got cut off by the sound of Anna's cry. I turned to her and picked her up. "Baby, why are you crying? Did you have a bad dream?" I asked her softly, totally forgetting about the old lady.
"Ye…yes a b..bad dream." She says sobbing. It was so hard watching her crying, I really felt my heart breaks.
"Oh sweetheart, it was just a bad dream, just a dream. Everything is okay baby girl, please don't cry, I hate it when you cry." I told her softly, kissing her forehead and rubbing her back gently to help her calm.
"What is going on here?" I suddenly heard the old lady ask. Anna probably heard her too, since she lifted her little head from my shoulder and looked back to see the old lady.
"Sara? *Sniff* what are *Sniff* you doing?" Anna asked the old lady, Sara, sniffing and wiping the tears from her eyes using the back of her hand.
"Anna, honey, who is this man? Why are you with him? Where is your mommy?" Sara asked my baby, about me.
"Sara, this is my daddy, Austin! And I am with him because mommy is sleeping and she won't wake up." Anna, who stopped crying and sniffing, answered Sara.
"What do you mean 'sleeping'? Where is she?" Sara asked Anna.
"She is in a coma, she is at the hospital." I answered for Anna. "Now I am sorry, but it's late, and I need to get her upstairs for dinner and to get her ready for bad."
"Oh, okay, are you two staying in Ally's apartment?" she asked and I nodded. Anna just stayed quiet. "Okay, I guess I will stop by sometime during the week." She said and I nodded.
"Okay, have a nice evening." I said and went to the elevator with Anna by my side, holding my hand.
"Good night Sara!" Anna said sweetly and waved her while we were waiting for the elevator.
"Good night sweetheart," Sara said smiling at my little girl. "Have a nice evening too Austin." She then said looking at me.
The elevator reached the lobby and we got in. I pressed Ally's floor and we waited for the elevator to reach the right floor and for its doors to open. As it did, Anna took my hand and led me to one of the doors. The door she led me to has a wooden welcome sign the said – "welcome to our little castle – Ally & Anna."
I used Ally's keys and opened the door. As I opened the door I saw a nice looking apartment, it wasn't small, but wasn't too big either it was perfect for a small family, family - Ally, Anna and I, this can be perfect.
I just wish Ally will wake up fast, and that WHEN she wakes up she will take me back.
"Daddy?" I was pulled out of my thoughts by Anna's voice.
"Yes baby?" I asked her, looking down at her.
"You're staring at the wall for a long time." she giggled.
"Oh... Well do you want to show me around?" I asked her and she nodded smiling.
She took my hand and started pulling me all around the house and telling me what each room is.
She showed me the living room that has Brown fabric couch and a wooden coffee table. Then she showed me to a small kitchen, that's has a small light brown wooden circle table with four chairs around it.
After those she showed me the dining room that has the same table and chairs that I saw in the kitchen only in the dining room the table is square shaped, it's bigger and there are six chairs around it.
Then she showed me the bathroom and then home bedroom pranks her bedroom is everything you would expect from a three years old girl, only in purple and not pink. There are light purple painted walls with pink and red flowers pattern on one wall, light purple sheets with baby pink and light purple stripes sheets for her duvet, and about a dozen of staffed animals one her bed. On one coroner there is a big doll house that I recognized since Dez and Trish bought the same thing to Kayla last year for her birthday (only it brook, so I bought Kay a new one this year), which is really weird because if they knew about Ally and Anna they would have told me, right? Anyway there were also bunch of princess dolls and Barbies in a box next to the house and in side of it. Aside from that she has a bean bag that its color is a bit darker shade of purple from her sheets.
On the other side of the room she has the thing I liked the most about it. She has a red rug (that looks a lot like the red carpet that celebrities, including myself, walks on on special events.) and one the other side of the rug there is a plastic microphone stand and a small real acoustic guitar.
"Do you know how to play guitar princess?" I asked her once I saw the guitar.
"Umm not really… mommy bought this guitar for me only few days ago, she promised she would teach me to play after my birthday!" she said, her voice cracking, and at the end she brook down crying, tears streaming down from her beautiful hazel eyes.
"Oh baby! Come here." I said and picked her up, she immediately warps her arms around my neck. "Please don't cry I hate it when you cry, it makes me want to cry." I said rubbing small circles on her back with my left hand while holding her with my right arm, sitting on my right hip. "You don't wanna see daddy cries, now do you?" I joked, trying to get a hint of a smile from her, and I did.
"No." she said and giggled a bit, forgetting that she just cried a second before.
"Good, so what do you say, do you want some dinner?" I asked her changing the subject. She nodded against the crook of my neck, were her head is in. but she doesn't let go from my neck.
I walk with her in my arms to the kitchen and start making omelets. I would have make pancakes but it was late and I wanted Anna to eat, bath and go to sleep, and making pancakes take time.
After Anna and I finished our dinner, I took her to the bathroom and helped her shower, and then helped her put on a cute 2-piece tee and pants pajamas set, the shirt is white with a mini mouse drawing on the front and red short sleeves, the pant are long, red and have different drawings of hearts, bows and purses on them(*).
Just as I tucked her in her bed I heard knocking on the front door, I kissed Anna's forehead and went to see who was at the door. As I opened the door I was shocked.
"What are you doing here?" all three of us yelled together.
Who is at the door? Tell me who you think in the reviews:)
