Baby Besson

Chapter 34

You woke up, in pain. And a lot of it. Corbyn was holding my hand while two strangers were checking my pulse. I realized where I was and tried to sit up, but was pushed down by Corbyn.
Corbyn: "Madelyn chill."
You looked over at him and saw his tear stained face and red, puffy eyes, not remembering what happened. You scanned your body, seeing a compression in your rip cage, covered in blood. All the memories from the last hour came flooding back. The win, then Alaina.
As you came to, you started hearing the sirens, you looked out the window, and saw the boys in the car behind you.
Corbyn held your hand, gently tightening every couple minutes, and letting go. As you pulled into the hospital, they wheeled you in and started naming information.
??: Madelyn Besson, 16 year old female, stab wound to the abdomen."
Corbyn was following you, not leaving but three feet between you. A nurse stopped and put her hand on his chest.
??: "Sir, you need to stay outside of the room."
Corbyn: "Im her brother, please."
??: "Im sorry, we can't let you in."
He sighed and stood outside of the room, watching everything happen through a window.
They counted down from three and four people picked you up and put you on a bed. The shock of pain made you scream. You were fine as you were laying still, but when they went to move you, it hurt.
They uncovered the wound, as the air hit it, and immediatly stung. You cringed. One of the doctors started looking closely.
??: "Madelyn, you are going to have to go in to surgery, the knife went into your ovary."
You nodded, but got very nervous. They added strong compression to hold the bleeding, and sent you under. After a moment, everything went dark.
Corbyns POV:
A nurse came out to me, and started explaining things.
??: "Are you Corbyn Besson?"
Corbyn: "Yes Ma'am thats me."
??: "Im Lindsey, Madelyn has some complications with the wound."
Corbyn: "Wait what? Shes okay right?"
Lindsey: "She will be, if we get this fixed right away. See she-"
Corbyn: "Wait, can you wait until her boyfriend gets here to explain everything?"
Lindsey: "Of course, I will be back in a moment."
Daniel came sprinting down the hallway with Zach.
Daniel: "Wheres mads? Is she okay?"
Zach had been crying, and Daniel hadn't but his ears and eyes were red. He let the anger take over rather than the tears.
Corbyn: "I don't know Daniel. All I know is she needs surgery."
I sat down in the chair.
Daniel: "What.." He said it more as a breath.
He sat down next to me, Zach sitting next to Daniel.
I put my head in my hands.
Lindsey: "Corbyn?"
I looked up quickly.
Corbyn: "Yes Hi, this is Daniel Seavey, Madelyns boyfriend."
Lindsey: "Right, and who is this? Im sorry for asking, but I can only give information to people you approve."
Corbyn: "Oh uhm, this is Zach, one of her friends. Jack and Jonah are also on their way."
Lindsey: "Yes okay, so Madelyn had a complication with the wound. The knife went into her ovaries, and she is bleeding internally. We can fix it, as long as we do it now. But there would be a chance she couldn't have children in the future. We need your approval, as her current guardian."
I gulped. That was the one thing she wanted in life. A family. But if I didn't tell them to do it, she could bleed to death.
Corbyn: "Do it."
Lindsey nodded and walked away. I looked through the window watching them send Madelyn under anestesia. I sat down with Daniel next to me.
Daniel: "Shes gonna be really upset.."
Corbyn: "Its only a chance.. right?"
Daniel: "I hope so.."
Corbyn: "Daniel I know you want a family in the furture as much as she does but-"
Daniel: "Corbyn. I do. But I can't keep doing this to her. She deserves better."
Corbyn: "Wait are you..?"
Daniel nodded.
He was going to breakup with her. Daniel was doing it for the right reasons though. He hurt her, and he couldn't bear to do it again.
Daniel: "I should have protected her Corbyn. She needs someone who will. Apparently I can't do that."
Corbyn: "Daniel what are you talking about? She loves you."
Daniel: "And I love her too. Thats why I have to let her go."
Zachs POV
Hearing Daniel say what he did, made me upset but happy. Madelyn was going to be crushed, but that means I have a chance with her.
I knew why Daniel was doing it. He wanted better for Madelyn. I don't agree, that he isn't good for her. She loves him, they are amazing together. But I can't change anything.
Corbyns POV:
As I watched them wheeling Madelyn out of her room, I clasped my hands lightly and looked at her lifeless face. A couple tears fell down. How was I going to tell her she might not be able to have kids? Shes only 16, so that shouldn't be her focus, but she wants a family one day. Ever since we were little all she talked about was becoming a wife, and a mom. Specifically a mom to a boy, and a girl, and two dogs. She has high expectations for her life and this could ruin it all. All I was hoping for, was that she could make a full recovery, and have kids. Live a normal life. After hours of me and the boys sitting in the cafeteria drinking coffee, Lindsey found us.
Lindsey: "Hi Corbyn! Is this Jack and Jonah?"
Corbyn: "Yeah, uh Jack is the one with curly hair and Jonah is the other one."
She nodded.
Lindsey: "Well I have good news, Madelyn is out of surgery and in recovery. She should be awake in about an hour."
Corbyn: "Thats great! Wait... can she like.. have kids still?"
Lindsey: "We aren't sure yet, we can't find out until she wakes up."
I nodded and looked down, putting my head in my hands.
She walked away and Zach knocked down my hands.
Zach: "Look man, the good thing is that shes okay."
I just nodded. He was right but I know what Daniel was going to say as soon as she woke up enough to process things, and so many things about Madelyn were going through my head. National dance competitions just aren't her thing apparantly.
