Chapter 34: Oh Baby


She picked up an iPad from the end of my bed and looked it over as I sighed.

"That's good... I guess," trying to make myself feel better.

"You, however, had a bruised rib, and a slight concussion besides the few other cuts and bruises you got. You were lucky, but we need to keep you until that rib heals up a bit more. We don't want it to break and hurt the baby," the doctor explained. I stopped breathing. It felt like I was entering a dream. Everything was starting to get fuzzy.

"B-baby?" I whispered, thoroughly stunned. A look of regret crossed the doctor's face.

"Did you not know that you were pregnant?" she asked me hesitantly. I shook my head as a stray tear left my eye.

"You have to promise me that Hayden is going to be okay," I said hoarsely. I was trying my best not to cry again. I felt my eyes water anyway. The doctor sighed and put the iPad back.

"All I can promise is that we'll do our best. You can start accepting visitors now. I'll come back later with a sonogram machine to check in on the baby. You'll probably be released in a few days," she said, changing the subject. She left and a nurse brought me a cup of ice chips. I was worried about Hayden. I needed Hayden to be okay. I needed Hayden to live.

A few minutes later, Quinn was poking her head into the wash-white room. Lana, Jason, Kendra, Bradley, and Luca came in after her. My heart dropped when I realized that Hayden wouldn't be coming in behind them.

"How are you feeling?" Luca asked. I couldn't find my words. Those simple four words sent me spiraling again. I felt my eyes start to water. I tried to hold them back, but the more I tried, the harder it became to hold them back. I shook my head as I closed my eyes. Quinn sat next to me in the bed and put an arm around me. I subconsciously put a hand over my stomach. I leaned my head against her shoulder as my tears fell again. She shushed me and eventually, it worked. I sighed and looked to Luca.
