Chapter 54
The next day Lindsay had stayed at the hospital all night much to the dismay of the doctors who after much effort to try and get her to leave put a more comfy chair into the room so she could sleep. Danny hadn't made any changes, which was good, and Lindsay managed to get a few hours sleep while watching the monitors bleep in his room.
Izzy and Matt stayed at home watching the trips, who only woke up once that night because of them teething,
"Izzy," Stella said walking into the house after letting herself in with the spare key and seeing Izzy sat on the floor playing with the trips,
"Hey," Izzy said smiling up at Stella,
"How you guys doing?" she asked walking into the living room sitting next to Izzy and the trips who were playing with their toys,
"We're good thanks," Izzy said smiling laughing as Grace pulled on Stella's hair, "Grace no," she said and Grace pouted put let go,
"Okay so how are you doing?" Stella asked Izzy who shrugged, "Sweetie, you need to talk about it,"
"No I don't," Izzy said quietly rolling her eyes, and standing up walking into the kitchen,
"Izzy," Stella shouted after her sighing, knowing that she would never answer her, "Where's Matt gone?" she asked and Izzy walked back in with a packet of Milky Buttons,
"Home," Izzy said opening the packet and taking some out,
"What are they?" Stella asked looking at the white chocolate buttons,
"Cadbury white chocolate buttons," Izzy said breaking some in half and feeding the trips a little bit each, "As in English chocolate, the guys sent me some,"
"Oh," Stella said smiling as the trips munched on the buttons, "Are they okay having those?" she asked and Izzy nodded,
"Just a little bit will be fine," Izzy said smiling, "I lived on them as a kid and I turned out okay," she said laughing and Stella smiled,
"I stopped by to pick Lindsay some clothes up," she said and Izzy nodded,
"I'll go and find some wait here," Izzy said walking up the stairs in search of some clothes,
"What are we going to do with your sister," Stella asked the trips who just sat and gurgled at her,
"Here you go Stel," Izzy said giving her a bag full of clothes, "Is mom okay?" she asked and Stella sighed,
"I don't know sweetie," Stella said standing up and grabbing the bag, "She said she rang Lucia and Gio to come take care of the trips for a while they'll be here in an hour,"
"She didn't have to," Izzy said looking at the trips and smiling,
"I know she didn't but you need to be a kid Izzy, not sitting here looking after the trips all day," Stella said smiling and Izzy shrugged,
"I don't mind," Izzy said smiling sitting back down on the floor,
"Either way hun, they'll be here in a while," Stella said giving Izzy a hug before poking each of the trips on the nose, "I better be getting back to the hospital," she said smiling at Izzy who was playing with a small toy on the floor,
"Okay" Izzy said not turning round and Stella sighed before leaving the house and closing the door behind her, Izzy turned round and saw no one was there and tears began to escape her eyes, Grace smiled at her elder sister and crawled over to her putting her arms up,
"Hey you," Izzy said pulling Grace into a hug, "You coming to cheer your big sister up," she said wiping the tears away with the back of her hand, "We miss mommy and daddy don't we," she said and Grace looked up and blabbered something while trying to steal Izzy's glasses,
"Hey missy," Izzy said laughing as Grace got the glasses off Izzy's face and tried to put them on her own, "You look very cute," Izzy said laughing taking the glasses off Grace and putting them back on her face, "But I need them to see," she said and Grace yawned, "I see I have 3 tired babies on my hand, how about I go put you three down for a nap," she said standing up and picking Sam up as well as he yawned, taking them upstairs and putting them in their cots in there room, before fetching Lily and taking her up as well, closing the door but not before putting the baby monitor on and walking back down the stairs,
"What the hell am I gonna do now," Izzy said sighing walking back into the living room and looking around at the now empty room, she sighed again sitting on the couch and curling up in the corner falling asleep.
***
"Lindsay," Stella said walking into the room seeing Lindsay sitting staring at Danny,
"Hey Stel," Lindsay said turning and smiling at Stella, she looked really tired her cheeks were stained with dried tears and she looked almost dead inside,
"I got you some clothes kiddo," Stella said putting the bag onto the chair next to Lindsay, who smiled,
"Thanks," Lindsay said sitting up in her chair and bringing her knees to her chest, "How Izzy and the trips?" she asked,
"They're all fine," Stella said smiling, "I told her Gio and Lucia will be there soon,"
"Thank you," Lindsay said smiling and Stella, "I mean it Stel, thank you,"
"Any time kiddo," Stella said smiling, kissing her forehead hugging her, "I gotta get back to work," she walked to the door and Lindsay yawned, "You get some sleep as well, you look like you need it," she said smiling, and Lindsay nodded as she walked away turned to Danny seeing he was okay and putting her head back on the chair, closing her eyes and letting sleep come over her.
***
"Mom!" a voice shouted and Lindsay jerked awake, "Mom come on hurry up I need to go, I have to get to the show," Lindsay looked the girl up and down frowning, she was about 7 years old, had long curly brown hair and brown eyes, she looked familiar but then again very different, "Mom come on please," the girl said tugging on Lindsay hand and she followed confused,
"Mom I see Lily's found you," Izzy said, but it wasn't Izzy she was older, she looked about 21, her hair was the same put up in a bun, she had a black dress on, and her glasses which didn't look much different,
"Yeah she did," Lindsay said smiling at Lily, who had pink tights and a pink tutu on, "Come her baby girl," Lindsay said and Lily ran into her arms and Lindsay picked her up, "You've gotten big," she said and Lily smiled,
"You always say that mommy," she said laughing wiggling so Lily put her down, "Where are Sam and Grace?"
"In the car with Matt," Izzy said smiling, "Come on we better be going,"
"What about Dad?" Lindsay asked and Izzy stopped dead, pushing Lily through the door,
"Dad's been dead for nearly 7 year's mom," Izzy said looking at Lindsay with sad eyes, "Don't you remember?"
"Of course," Lindsay said sadly, looking at Izzy who smiled, "I just had a dream is all,"
"I miss him too mom, come on," Izzy said putting her hand in Lindsay's and pulling her towards the door, "We need to go watch Lily dance,"
"Ballet," Lindsay said and Izzy laughed,
"Of course, you always said I shouldn't have taken her to so many shows, the girls more into dancing then I am," Izzy said and opened the passenger door to the car, "I thought I'd drive as well," she said smiling walking over to the drivers said and Lindsay smiled.
She got into the car and turned round, saw Matt who was sitting next to who she assumed was Sam and Grace, Sam looked exactly like a mini Danny, even with the glasses, Grace was a mixture of them both and looked a lot like Izzy, she had her hair in a pig tail and she was laughing at the joke Matt had just said.
"Mommy," Grace said and Lindsay smiled, Grace smiling back with a gappy smile, she had her two front teeth missing,
"Yes sweetie," Lindsay said,
"Can we go out after the show, to have dinner with Uncle Flack and Auntie Jenny?" Grace asked,
"Sure," Lindsay said smiling,
"Can we go out for pizza mommy?" Sam asked and Lindsay smiled and nodded,
"Course," Lindsay said, as Izzy drove onto the main road into town, "How are you Matt?" she asked,
"I'm good Lindsay thank you," Matt said smiling, "Work was a bit hectic but you know what hospitals are like," he said and Lindsay smiled,
"That's good," Lindsay said smiling, and turned to face the road, only now the fact that Izzy had said Danny was dead hit her, and she tried to stop the tears from falling,
"You okay mom?" Izzy asked turning left and then looking over at Lindsay smiling,
"Yeah fine," Lindsay said smiling, "Just noticing how grown up you all are all of a sudden,"
"And you're thinking of dad," Izzy said and Lindsay nodded,
"He would have been proud of you all," Lindsay said smiling and Izzy smiled back,
"I know," Izzy said, and stopped the car, "Come on guys everyone out, Lily go to the dressing room and tell Ginny I'm here I'm sure she's pulling her hair out by now,"
"Izzy that's silly, why would she pull her hair out," Lily said confused unbuckling herself,
"It's a figure of speech idiot," Grace said rolling her eyes,
"Mommy she called me an idiot!" Lily shouted before jumping out the car and running into the theatre,
"Grace please don't call your sister an idiot," Lindsay said turning round and looking at Grace who smiled sweetly, "Oh no missy, come on lets go watch your sisters recital,"
"Okay," Grace huffed and got out of the car behind Sam and Matt,
"Guys I'll see you later, I need to go see everything is okay," Izzy said smiling, kissing everyone on the cheek and Matt on the lips,
"Love you," Matt said smiling,
"Love you too babes," Izzy said ads Grace and Sam made faces in disgust, "Love you two as well, munchkins," Izzy said laughing and ran into the theatre,
"You okay mommy?" Grace asked walking up to Lindsay, who smiled and leant down,
"Yeah baby I am," Lindsay said smiling and Grace smiled,
"Mommy you look pale," Sam said and Lindsay shook her head,
"No I'm fine," Lindsay said,
"You know Flack she does look pale," a voice said,
"Grace I'm fine," Lindsay murmured in her sleep,
"Lindsay," Flack said and Lindsay woke up looking around the room and realised she was still in hospital, she looked at Danny lying in the bed and burst into tears,
"You're still alive," Lindsay breathed out and grabbed Danny's hand,
"You okay Linds?" Flack asked walking over to her and sitting in the chair next to her,
"Yeah Don," Lindsay said smiling, "I just had the strangest dream,"
"Yeah you were talking in your sleep," Flack said and Lindsay smiled,
"How are you?" Lindsay asked turning away from Danny's sleeping form; sure he was still alive and was not dead as in her dream,
"Have a head ache the size of a small mountain but I'm good," Flack said smiling, "The question is how are you,"
"I'm hanging in there," Lindsay said with a small smile, "You keeping your eye on him Jen?" she asked Jenny who was standing in the corner smiling at Lindsay,
"Yeah," Jenny said smiling back, "You okay Linny," she asked and Lindsay shrugged,
"Okay I guess," she said looking at Jenny who gave her friend a smile, over the past few months her and Lindsay had become really close, they were best friends, the same age nearly and both dating the hottest of the NYPD and both a women in the male dominated world,
"Linny," Jenny said walking over to the chair and putting a hand on her shoulder,
"I dreamt he died," Lindsay said sadly looking at the floor,
"But he's not," Jenny said smiling,
"Have you caught who did this yet?" Lindsay asked and Jenny and Flack shook their heads,
"We will though, we have everyone out looking for them, we found some of them hiding in one of their hideaways," Flack said and Lindsay nodded,
"We're doing all we can Linds, they're going to go down for this," Jenny said and Lindsay nodded,
"Lindsay," one of the nurses named Kristy said walking into the room, "There's a girl outside, says she's your daughter,"
"Izzy," Lindsay said and Kristy nodded, "Let her in, thank you,"
"No problem," Kristy said walking out of the room, and a moment later Izzy stood at the door looking at Danny laying in the bed and then at Lindsay,
"Hey mom," Izzy said smiling and Lindsay smiled back.
"Come here you," Lindsay said and Izzy walked towards her both hugging each other tight, "What are you doing here?" she asked,
"Came to see you and dad," Izzy said smiling,
"Lucia and Gio at home," Lindsay asked and Izzy nodded,
"I needed to go for a walk so I decided to catch the subway to come see you," Izzy said smiling stepping out of the hug and sitting in one of the chairs looking at Danny.
"We better be getting back to work," Jenny said, "I'll stop by to see you later,"
"Okay," Lindsay said smiling, as they both walked up and gave both her and Izzy hugs before leaving the room,
"You look tired mom," Izzy said and Lindsay shrugged looking back at Danny,
"I didn't get much sleep to be honest baby girl," Lindsay said and Izzy sighed, "I think I might go and get something to eat," she said, "I haven't really eaten much but I hear the cafe isn't that bad, you want something?"
"Sandwich if they have some," Izzy said smiling, "Want me to come with you?" she asked and Lindsay shook her head,
"No you stay and look after dad, I'll be back in a bit," Lindsay said standing up kissing Danny on the head and walked out of the room.
It was quiet in the room for a while minus the bleeping of the machines, Izzy sat and watched Danny's chest rise and fall under the many blankets, the machines bleep with each cycle of his heart beat,
"You know you need to wake up right dad," Izzy said looking at Danny, "Cause me and mom need you, mom especially, and you still haven't played me at baseball," she said laughing, "Remember the bet we had about it, how I am going to whip your butt at it, and then you owe me and mom a movie night alone," Izzy laughed again holding onto his hand, "I miss you dad, and I know you can hear me, so don't expect me to say it again, but I do I miss you so much, and mom does as well, she's finding it hard, so you need to wake up soon, cause you're not allowed to miss another one of my dance recitals, and you need to come and shout at me for being out too late and shout at Matt for coming and picking me up in a car and taking me out till late at night.
And you need to see the trips learn to walk and speak and make them copy you when you swear so mom ends up making you sleep on the couch. And you need to keep the swear jar topped up cause it's going to go on some new clothes for me," Izzy said laughing,
"More like a night out for me, Stella and Jenny," Lindsay said from the doorway with 2 brown bags in her hand and 2 bottles of cola,
"I don't think so mom, me and Sarah are gonna have a shopping spree with it," Izzy said laughing as Lindsay walked over and handed her a brown bag,
"Chicken salad," Lindsay said as Izzy opened the package,
"Better then pizza," Izzy said picking up the sandwich and eating a bit, "It isn't actually that bad, better than the ones on the airplane anyway,"
"True," Lindsay said eating some of her sandwich, "What were you talking about before the bit about the money?" she asked and Izzy shrugged,
"You know this and that," Izzy said smiling,
"Okay then," Lindsay said laughing and ate some more of her sandwich, "How's Matt?"
"He's good," Izzy said smiling, "His parents still hate me but ho hum,"
"I don't see what their problem is?" Lindsay said and Izzy shrugged,
"Well I think it's cause I am not the child of a millionaire or have grown up with 'proper company' but oh well, what they don't know can't hurt them," Izzy said smirking and Lindsay rolled her eyes,
"They don't know you're back together do they?" Lindsay said raising an eyebrow,
"In a manner of speaking no," Izzy said whistling before looking and Lindsay and they both burst out laughing, they both smiled at each other laughing more,
"They are gonna kill you two you know that," Lindsay said chuckling and taking a sip of her drink,
"Well we haven't really discussed what will happen yet, and we aren't going to till it happens," Izzy said chuckling and eating the remainder of her sandwich, "That was actually really nice," she said putting the bag down and drinking some drink,
"It is," Lindsay said still eating hers,
"When are they taking him off the med's?" Izzy asked looking back at a sleeping Danny,
"Tomorrow," Lindsay said looking and at Danny and smiling, "He'll hopefully be awake in a few days, it'll take a while for them to wear off completely then it's up to him to wake up," she said,
"He will mom," Izzy said smiling, "He wants to come back to us,"
"I know he does, I just hope that's enough," Lindsay said looking at Danny and sighing, "When do you go back to school again?"
"2 weeks," Izzy said smiling, "It'll be good to be back, and to see everyone again,"
They sat in the room talking about anything and everything, hoping Danny would hear them and wake up sooner.
Review me happy :) xxxx
