Move Over
Chapter Twenty-Three: Nadia Jane Marchand
"Emmie!" I yelled, walking through their front door.
"In the kitchen, Alek!" She shouted back, her voice strange. I couldn't put my finger on it but she sounded different. I continued walking past the grande staircase that lead to the second level, down a hallway that lead to the kitchen.
"Hey, Sweetie" she smiled, hugging me.
"I see you like the ring" She nodded rapidly, but stopped, gripping her stomach. She cried out in pain, "God damn it!" Her screams seemed to shake the walls.
"Are you okay?" i demanded, reaching for my phone to call Brad. She shook her head, pulling my hand away from my phone.
"I'm fine, just some cramps" I shook my head, if she cried out in pain again, I was going to drive her to the hospital or call an ambulance.
"So...." She smirked, even though I could tell she was still in mad pain, "You and Tuukka?"
I rolled my eyes, "Yes, was it that obvious"
She shrugged, continuing to make supper for us. Brad and the guys were at Chara's doing some bachelor party shit, that was including Tuukka. Mega-sad-face.
"Nope, only a sister knows." she giggled, twisting her beautiful winding flower ring, that blossomed into a large diamond, around her finger. {Ring}
"Have you had....?" She trailed off and I shook my head. We haven't had sex, and we couldn't until his injuries healed. Which I was fine with, I would wait forever for him. But until then the only thing he could manage was kissing, and grabbing my ass, which I loved.
She smiled, "You're in love with him" I blushed a deep shade of red, and shook my head 'no'. Which was a lie and she knew it.
"Awe, you do"
"Are you thinking of a dress?" I asked, trying so desperately to change the subject.
She smiled, as if she knew what I was trying to do, but reached for a magazine on the counter, but crumbled down in pain.
"A-A-Alek, I th-hink I'm g-going in-to lab-or" I froze for a second as her words sunk deep into my brain, and I sprung to action. I threw her arm over my head, and balanced half of her weight on me, and half-carried, half-dragged her to my truck.
I stomped on the gas, and we sped off towards the hospital, madly dialing Marchand's number into my phone.
----------
I paced the length of the waiting room, trying to calm myself the fuck down. I had seen her be escorted into surgery or somewhere. She had fainted from the pain, on the highway. I had called Marchand and he was on his way from god knows where, I think he said Marblehead.
"Alek!" Someone yelled and I was embraced in a hug that only belonged to one person.
Tuukka. Thank god he was here. I forgot all about the secret thing and kissed him. In front of the guys, who just wolf whistled and either told us to get a room or finally, we weren't fouling anyone.
"She was just in so much" I searched for the right word, "pain" I searched Tuukka's eyes from comfort, and found some as I crumpled against his frame.
Just as I was about to fall asleep, someone walked into the room and summoned for Marchand. I sat up from Tuukka's chest. I watched as Marchand walked behind the nurse into the hospital room. I would follow him but, I think I'd be kicked out. I intertwined my fingers in Tuukka's and snuggled back into his chest. I yawned, and silently fell into a deep sleep.
--------------------
"Alek...." Tuukka's voice whispered, "Babe, wake up"
I squinted my eyes and was brought back into the real world. I yawned and wiped my eyes. Like a tidal wave, the night's events came crashing back, "Is she okay?!" Tuukka chuckled and pulled me up from the chair, continuing to pull me into the hospital room where Marshy, Emmie and their baby........girl were snuggling together.
"Have you named her yet?" I asked, my voice low.
She nodded, "Nadia Jane Marchand,"
"Beautiful name for a beautiful baby" Marchand smiled and pecked Emmie's lips.
"Well.....We should let you rest, I mean hours of labor should make you tired" Emmie's smile didn't leave her face,
"Bye and thank you, if I would have been there alone.....I don't know what I would of done"
I nodded, "You're welcome" I whispered, giving her a smile as Tuukka grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the room leaving the two love birds and their beautiful baby alone.
I sighed, utterly tired even though I slept through the whole labor.
"Let's go home"
