William POV

I had roughly around 15 more minutes left in this surgery before my phone started ringing non stop. Usually when I am in surgery I have my phone turned off but ever since finding out that Chloe is pregnant I had my phone on incase of an emergency. 

“Jances, can you answer that phone call for me please.” My nurse answered the phone and placed it on speaker. “Hello.”

“Dad.” by his voice alone I know something happened. My son doesn’t normally call me knowing that I am at work. 

“Cole buddy what’s the matter?” I had around 3 more stitches to do. 

“It’s Chloe, we were at her mom's house because she needed us and then her boyfriend got physical with Chloe and now we are here at the hospital. I don’t know what to do dad. Where are you? Tell me what to do.?” My whole body froze. What does he mean got physical with Chloe? Is the baby ok? I had all these questions running through my head that I forgot about the patient that is on the table.

“What room are you in?”

“432.”

“Be there in 10.” My nurse hung up my phone and I finished up with these damn stitches. I had one of my 3rd year resident close up and ran out of there so fast I'm pretty sure people thought the worst. Once I got there Cole was at Chloe's side holding her hand and she was there still unconscious. I pulled up her chart on the computer and started reading the diagnosis. She has a busted lip, that part is obvious, a sprain wrist and a concussion. There was nothing on here regarding the baby.

“Why didn’t they check to see if the baby was ok?”

“I’m not sure dad.”

I called in the nurse on duty to call the doctor handling her case. “William, what a surprise seeing you here.’’

“Jorge, pleasure as always. You know I was wondering why there wasn’t a check up on the baby.”

“I wasn’t aware she was pregnant.” Bullshit, it states clearly on her chart that she is but right now was not the time to lose my shit.

“Well can you get on that please.” and focus my attention back on Chloe. Her mom walked in moments later with two police officers at her back. 

“William nice to see you again.” She smiled sweetly at me like her daughter isn’t knocked out on the bed just a few feet in front of us. “The officers wants to get their statement, but seeing how Chloe is still out I'll speak on her behalf.” She turned to the officer. “Like I said before she simply fell down the stairs.”

“BULLSHIT.” Cole shouted. “Your piece of shit boyfriend tried raping her and hit her when she fought back.”

“I don’t know what you are talking about.” Her mom faked shocked.

“How would you know you weren’t there. You were too busy locking yourself up in your room to come out and help your own daughter.”

“I think it's best if you guys come back at a later time when Cole calms down and Chloe is awake to give her own statement.” I finally spoke up.

“If anything happens to Chloe and her baby I hope you could live with yourself.”

“Sh-sh-she’s pregnant.” Cole and myself ignored her while the police officers walked her out of the room. I turned to Cole and he explained everything that had happened to me. Once he was done the nurses and doctor came and checked on my child and of course Chloe to see if they are in perfect health. Thankfully when Chloe fell she took the majority of the fall avoiding her stomach and my little girl heart beat is strong and she is moving like crazy. Now all we have to do is wait for the love of my life to wake up.

“I’m telling you dad.” Cole started speaking again. I can tell seeing Chloe like this bothers him. Fuck this whole situation bothers not only him but me as well. “Once Chloe’s mom came out of the room she went straight to Chloe but after Chloe knocked out and I knocked out Peter I had to tell her to get away from her. It’s all her fault that Chloe is in here. It’s like I had no control dad,  all I saw was red. I went off on her mom calling her every name in the book. I didn’t care how bad my knuckles were hurting from beating the shit out of that guy. It was just a shitty situation to be in.”

“I know son. Thank you for what you did. Thank you for looking out for Chloe.”

“You don’t need to thank me dad. I would do it 1000x over if that means she is safe. I love her and I will always love her and that wouldn’t change. She is my best friend and the mother to my sister so.” He shrugged his shoulders. All in all Cole is really a great kid.
