I left the cemetery shortly after. I couldn't believe what just happened. I decided to forget it. I figured i was just imagining it all. I stopped by and picked up the pizza and headed home. I walked in the door and the kids were so excited to eat. They gobbled it down. As did me and Ethan. I told him all about my internship and he seemed to be interested. "So do i get my present?" He said winking an laughing. I laughed. "Sure let me go get changed." He smiled and i walked upstairs. All the sudden i heard a loud thump and the kids starting yelling for me. I ran down and Ethan was having a seizure. "Ethan! Sh*t" I dialed 911. "Go downstairs and stay with Jordan and kayla okay?" I told them and they listened. The ambulance showed up shortly after. "What happened?" They asked. "Im not sure i was headed upstairs and i heard a loud sound and he was seizing." They nodded and loaded him on the stretcher. "He has cancer." I informed them. "Are you coming with?" I nodded and followed them out to the ambulance. We got there and we went straight into a room. They loaded him on a bed and put IVs through his arms and took his temperature. "102.6" She said as the assistant began writing it down on a clipboard. Then she took his blood pressure "BP 132 over 94. Lets get and Ct scan." She nodded "Ill get it set up immediately" And she left the room. "Is he going to be okay?" She shook her head. "I don't know. It depends. His bp is very high and so is his temp. We need to get a CT scan and make sure no head injuries are involved in his fall and check for any new tumors and then we will count his cancer cells and consider some radiation and kemo options if his health improves. But you need to keep in mind that he may not make it." I nodded and didnt say anything. I began thinking of the little girl. What if he doesn't make it til kaylas baby was born? Would that baby live with out a father? Is kayla pregnant? "How early can you get a pregnancy test?" I asked the doctor. She laughed an dlooked at my belly. "I don't think you need one sweetie. You look defiantly pregnant to me, but i can get an ultrasounds for you." She said smiling. I half laughed. "Not for me, my friend may be pregnant." She laughed. "Ohh gotcha. When did she conceive?" I paused. "Last night." She nodded. "Tell her to wait 2 to 3 weeks." I nodded. The assistant walked in. "CT is ready." She told the doctor. "Okay. Thank you." She began to wheel Ethan out of the room and told me to wait in here. I waited and the nurse came in and told me i should go do something that it will take two hours. So i drove home to inform the girls with whats going on. Then i left and grabbed some food on the way back to the ER. I headed back to the room and ate. Finally 30 minutes after they came back in with him and the results. "So?" i asked. "Well it theres a little bit of fluid build up from his fall creating a small mass but we will be able to clear that out easily. We see no more tumors for not but that doesn't mean they are forming. The cancer cells count was extremely high so we will need to discuss some treatment plans for the future." I nodded. "When will he wake up?" She sighed. "Not sure. HE very sick and we are trying to keep him BP and temperature down but it just keeps increasing." I looked at my fiancé who was in a coma and couldn't hear me in anyway. The nurses left and i sat there in concern. I doze off in the little chair thing i was in and i once i woke up the little girl from earlier was sitting next to me. "What the hell?" I said not meaning to. "Hello." She said I looked around the room hoping i was dreaming.. Ethan was still in a coma. "Um hi." She smiled. "Don't worry. I told you, he will be okay. He's not going to miss Isabel" I ignored her hoping the image i was currently seeing would go away. But it didnt. "He's going to come out of his coma tomorrow afternoon. Youll be home by the end of the week. But y'all will end back here one day again." I continued to ignore the girl. "ignoring me won't make me go away." She said smirking. The same smirk that Ethan does. "What do you want" I replied. "Nothing silly" Her voice squeaked. "How old are you?" I asked. she looked about 4. She laughed but said nothing. So i didnt say anything back. I sat there awkwardly. "Well i better get going." She said. I didnt answer. She stopped walking out. "Bye Dakota." and she left the room. Why am i imagining this little girl? I have to be how else would she know the only things i know.... I fell asleep and woke up a 10:30. When i woke up the nurses were in the room fixing his Ivs and checking his stats. "Sorry to wake you." they said giving me a sympathetic smile. "No its fine." I said giving them a smile. I checked my phone i had a text message from parker it read: *Let me know if you will be coming into the office today. -Parker* I didnt think i should go in today. *Sorry Parker, I am at the ER with my fiancé right now he's very sick, i don't think i will be able to make it in today. I shall try to come tomorrow or the next day. Will let you know.* I replied back. Seconds later my phone pinged. *No problem, so sorry about your fiancé. Please let me know if you need anything.* He's so kind. *Thank you :-)* I sent back. "Are things looking better?" I proceeded to ask the nurse. "Yes. Temperature has dropped and so has the BP, blood sugar looks good, his heart rate is stable and he seems to be doing better." I nodded and smiled. "Awesome sounds good." She smiled back. "If he wakes up we will need to do a quick surgery for the fluid and make sure its all removed. We will also try to take out some cancer cells if possible. Depends on the difficulty." She explained. "okay thanks." They left the room and i began playing on my phone. I got up to check on ethan. I held his hand and kissed it. "I love you." I told him over and over tears beginning to fall down my cheeks. I sat down and checked the time. IT was a quarter til one. I was debating on whether or not to get lunch. As i was about to get up ethan began moving. I jumped up and quickly walked over to him. HIs eyes were opened. I was so excited! I pressed the service button and the nurses came in. They looked confused. "How is he awake?" One asked the other. She shook her head. "Um I'm not sure." She began reviewing her charts and the monitor. "Hi Ethan." She said to him. HE tried talking. "HI" he tried saying with a very raspy tone. "How are you feeling?" She asked. "Like i fell off of a roof." She laughed. "Yes it will be like that. We will give you sometime but we need to prep you for surgery." He didnt say anything. I grabbed his hand. "Hey baby." I said smiling and kissed him. "I was so worried." I said concerned. "I never got my reward." HE said winking. Glad he's back. "Your so cute." I said rubbing my nose to his. "I think you should consider someone watching you child." The doctor said to me. "Im sorry, what do you mean?" I asked confused. "Charlie, your daughter, she was up bright and early wondering around, i think you should find someone to watch her for you." She said smiling. I rubbed my eyes and shook by head hoping that i was hearing things. But she stood there waiting for me to reply. Ethan looked confused. "We don't have-" I cut him off from saying that we don't have a kid named charlie. "Yes ma'am that won't happen again. Our babysitter brought her here last night and fell asleep." She laughed. "Alright. Well you two get some rest." She smiled and exited the room. "What was that?" What the heck. Now i feel like somones messing with me. I lied. "Savannah was here last night and pretended to be Charlie" HE laughed "Silly girl. Can i see them soon?" He asked. "Of course. Ill get them to come in soon. "He's going to come out of his coma tomorrow afternoon." Repeated in my head over and over. How the hell did she know that. Who was this kid and why is she messing with me. I dont understand. Ethan fell asleep so i decided to walk around the hospital. I walked by all of the babies and remembered when Savannah and Toby were there. I started to imagine Dakota being in there and then i started to think about Charlie. And sighed. Then i passed by a crib that had "Charlotte" on the crib. It was kinda weird but funny at the same time. I looked at the precious baby and thought about how lucky her parents are. I wanted to go in and look at them so i let my self in. I looked at all the babies and just kept imagining. Then i got to Charlottes crib. She was the tiniest in the room. I swear it she looked exactly like the dead baby i held in my arms that one night. On her wrist band said "Charlie" "Mother-" And just as i was about to read in a nurse walked in. "Ma'am I'm sort but your not allowed to be in here." I nodded. "Im sorry I'm just looking." She smiled. "I understand. I would too but unfortunately rules are rules. Which one is yours?" She asked. "I um- I" I didnt know what to say to that. "Charlotte" I quickly said so she wouldn't think I'm a creep. She looked totally confused. "Um we don't have a charlotte" She said back. "Yes you do she's over here-" I looked at the crib which now contained a fat chunky male. She looked confused. "I um.." I smiled at her and awkwardly exited the room waving and smiling . How embarrassing. I must have been imagining her in there. I shook my head and walked passed the babies again while the nurse stared at me still confused. I got to the room and found ethan was still sleeping. The nurses came in and woke him up to get him ready for surgery. They took him away and told me he will be back in a few hours.
