Nick and Louise walked into the E-D, hand in hand, Nick gave it a quick squeeze and smiled. Today was the day Louise left to go on maternity leave. They were both happy, Louise was slightly nervous as it meant her due date wasn't far away but was excited too at the thought that her ever growing bump will no longer be and she'll have her son or daughter in her arms and they'll finally be a proper family.
They walked as far as the reception desk together and Nick left her to go up to his office, placing a hand on her bump he said "right I'll see you two later" placing a swift kiss on her cheek he swaggered off up the stairs. Louise smiled and watched as he climbed the stairs she liked to watch him wiggle his bum he was so damned cute, she approached the desk where Noel and Tess were stood. "So todays the day" said Tess, "yes" replied Louise rubbing her belly, both Noel and Tess went "aww" "right I best go, patients to see, catch you later" replied Louise and off she went.
The day was going fine hardly any emergencies until a young mother came in with her baby, the baby was 3 months old called Joshua he had breathing difficulties and was under weight, Louise was the only Doctor free so she started treating him she thought she'd be fine. She checked him over and discovered he had an enlarged liver which in babies suggests a heart problem, while Tess was taking bloods she stood back with the mother and a wave of emotion hit her, as a little tear trickled down her cheek Nick waltzed in "I'll take it from here Dr Marshall" he said, "No thank you Mr Jordan I've got it under control" she replied still with tears in her eyes "I don't think it's best in your condition, please I won't ask again" he gave her a half smile and wiped a falling tear from her cheek with his thumb. She wasn't going to argue she knew he was only trying to protect her so off she went to get herself a cup of tea and sit in the staffroom for a break.
After a while Nick walked in "you okay?" he asked, she nodded. "Joshua's going to be fine, he's in surgery" "good, thank you" she replied. "For what?" "For taking over, I was getting too involved" "its fine babe, you shouldn't have to go through that in your condition". Nick walked towards Louise placed his hand on the side of her head and kissed her forehead, she wrapped her arms around him and rested her head on his chest, inhaling his scent she let out a big sigh, he placed his hands on her back and rubbed it slightly "Don't worry" he said, "huh?" "Nothing like that's going to happen to our little one it's a Jordan, tough as" he said looking down at her kissing her hair.
Joshua was out of theatre and everything was fine he was upstairs being looked after it was soon clocking off time so Louise decided to go see Nick, he was sat at his desk, she walked round and perched herself on his desk next to him and placed a white box wrapped in red ribbon on the desk in front of him, he looked at her puzzled. "What is it?" "Open it and you'll find out" he carefully untied the ribbon and opened the box, there was a little note inside which said 'so you don't miss anything' along with a pager. "I don't get it" he looked at her puzzlingly "its your very own baby pager, I know your worried about missing the birth, with this you wont" he looked up at her with a massive grin "Thank you" "its my pleasure" she replied leaning down and kissing him lovingly, placing his hand on her belly he said "not long now little one" Louise placed her hand over his and smiled.
End of shift had come around so quickly Louise was slightly sad but she knew she'd see them all again soon and the next time she'll be in the E-D she'll most probably be a mother she was so excited, she collected her things from her locker and said her goodbye's it was very emotional, she walked out hand in hand with Nick smiling "That's it now Mrs Jordan complete rest until the baby comes" "somehow I don't think that's going to happen" she replied flashing him a cheeky smile, "neither do I, I'm going to have my hands full with you aren't I" he replied sending her a cheeky wink, "oh you can count on that Mr Jordan" getting into the car he said "come on you lets get you home and see how naughty you can really be".
