Chapter Nine: Hospital
"1, 2, 3," I woke up to someone sit on top of me.
"What happened?" I asked weakly. The doctors and nurses cheered.
"Hey honey, your heart slowed down until you were barely alive, your low blood pressure and low blood sugars could have affected your heart in this manner" the doctor on top of me explained.
"Ok, um, not to be rude or anything but could you maybe get off me?" I asked her.
"Oh sorry certainly, have you eaten anything today?" She asked.
"No I wasn't feeling well went I woke up" I told them.
"So you didn't know until she was ready to come out?" One of the nurses asked.
"That's correct" I told them looking down at the little baby in the crib beside my bed.
"What do you feel like eating right now? We have to try and get your blood sugars up" Another doctor asked I must have all available staff surrounding me at this point.
"Just a fruit salad, thanks" I asked and he went to get it for me.
"Harlow Cormack, she's my daughter" I heard mum's voice.
"Mum" I called out to her.
"Oh Harls you're ok" she put Xander, who's asleep in his car seat, in the corner of the room and hugged me.
"Maria? Hi can I talk to you about your daughter and granddaughter's conditions." A Doctor asked guiding her out.
"How bad am I?" I asked the remaining staff.
"Your body was put into a lot of stress when it suddenly went into labour and your body react unnatural to the situation." A doctor explained. The Fruit salad doctor came back with the fruit salad.
"Thank you" I thanked him and started eating the salad.
"How many of you are like me?" I telepathically asked the room and I got five responses.
"She will have to go to Ward Y for the next few days until she's healthy again" one of the nurses said winking at me and 7 other people agreed with her winking at me. I giggled starting to feel better.
"Do you have a name?" a nurse asked.
"Pardon me?" I looked up at him.
"Your daughter, do you have a name for her?" he explained.
"Yes, Aven Rayne Haverford" I told them.
"It says in your files that your surname is Cormack, why the different name?"
"It's her father's name" I put some watermelon in my mouth.
"As in Joshua Haverford?" a male doctor at the back of the crowd looked up.
"Yes, he's my Boyfriend" I told him.
"He's my son" the doctor said and I started choking on my fruit.
"What?" I coughed.
"Justin, Joshua and Sammy are my children and Rachael is my ex-wife" he explained.
"But Josh said you died" I slipped out.
"He isn't happy about me leaving" he explained and Raven started crying. I got up and picked her up and started rocking her.
"I don't see what you're so scared about motherhood, you're a natural"
"I have 6 siblings" Xander started fussing and I rocked the car seat with my foot.
"Lots of experience then" the doctors started to leave to check on other patients and Mum came in with the main doctor.
"I'll take him you should be taking it easy since you died not even 20 minutes ago." Mum picked up Xander.
"Mum it's nearly 2:30 and you know how traffic is like at the school zone you better go" I told her finally looking at a clock.
"Are you sure you will be alright?" she asked nervously.
"Mum there are like 20 doctors and even more nurses around if anything was to happen" I told her.
"I'll be back in an hour"
"I'll be fine" I sat in my bed and put a pillow across my lap before feeding Raven.
"See you're a natural for sure" Dr Hotchner smiled at me, I was finally able to read her name badge.
"Thanks" I smiled at her.
"I'll just be outside filling paperwork, just give me a buzz if you need anything." She said.
"OK, can I have a bottle of water before you go, please?" I asked as Raven sucked away.
"Certainly" she grabbed a bottle and handed it to me before leaving. I was finally able to look at my baby without the blood and guts all over her. She had thick black hair and bright blue eyes like her daddy. She is beautiful. She fell asleep after I burped her, so I put her in her crib. I sat in my bed and continued to eat my salad.
"What happened to you?" Josh banged the door open and ran to my side. Tears formed in my eyes.
"Remember our 3 month anniversary when we had sex?" I asked him.
"Yeah, that was a great time" he smiled nervously. "What does that have to do with you being in the hospital?" he asked confused. The others walked in and Raven started fussing again. I got up and picked her up.
"Meet Aven Rayne, your daughter" I rubbed her back and burped her.
"She's... you were pregnant?" Willow was trying to process it.
"Seems like it" I chuckled nervously as Aven opened her eyes and looked around the room.
"Look at her eyes" Josh ran his hand over her thick black hair.
"They're like her daddy's" I commented.
"What is happening am I dreaming?" Jabez asked holding his arm out to Beau to get pinched. Beau pinched him finally getting the opportunity to hurt his brother.
"Oww, ok this is real?" Jabez asked
"What are you going to do?" he asked.
"I have no idea" I looked down at Aven.
"We shall raise Aven to be a wonderful little girl" Josh stated.
"I'm an auntie" Elsie added.
"And I'm an uncle" Beau commented.
"Where are you guys? Everyone seems to be in dreamland or something" Willow said annoyed. I sat back on my bed.
"Are you Ok?" Josh asked suddenly focusing on me.
"Yeah I'm perfectly fine" I lied.
"Harlow Emilia Cormack don't lie" Mum bursted, which made me jump.
"I feel fine, I'm fine ok" I can't believe she's doing this to me.
"Emmy?" Josh hugged me. "What's wrong?" he tried.
"I have low blood pressure and sugars and I died on the way to the hospital, but I'm fine now" I said as I started shaking. "Take her" I gave Aven to Josh before my body started to start shutting down. I was having some sort of seizure and I couldn't control of body.
"HARLOW!!" everyone screamed as doctors ran in, then everything went white.
