Fly With Me (a Jonas Brothers adoption story)

Chapter 21: Starting Another Journey

(A/N): This chapter may not be completely accurate as I personally have not experienced some of these things that will be mentioned. However, I have done some studying so hopefully it will be enough to make sense.

Enjoy :)

Nicks POV

"Yes, This is Dr. Fiona Tenby, and I do have some important test results about Charlotte. I understand that your circumstances may not allow you to be able to come into the office and discuss these results, so would you like for me to tell you now or should we wait so you can come in?" The doctor asks

"uh.. well... yeah just tell me now.." i say nervously.

"Okay. I want to be sure I have the right person, so you said your name is Nick?" The doctor says.

"Yes."

"Okay now I need Charlottes date of birth?"

"Yeah It's December 19, 2009." i say, anxious for the results.

I look over at Joe and make a nervous face at him. He just smiles reassuring at me.

"Okay, yep, that's you. okay... so the test has confirmed that Charlotte has Type 1 Diabetes."

Suddenly, my eyes fill up with tears. i feel my chest get tight. oh god.. i need to sit down.

"Sir? Nick are you there? Hello?" the doctor says on the other end of the line.

"uhhh..." i say, as i carefully sit on the couch, putting my head in my hands.

I guess i dropped my phone, because Joe is now talking on it. But I cant bring myself to pay attention.

I just want to go home. I want to get to my baby girl. I want to hold her and love her and tell her that it's going to be okay. but i cant...

"Nick, the doctor said she will make an appointment for tomorrow morning at 8am for a hospital stay just to monitor her and teach her all about her diagnosis." Joe says to me.

I just stay quiet. I'm kinda shocked. I feel so sorry for her that this is happening. I'm getting horrible flashbacks to when i was diagnosed. I went through some really hard times. It was really bad.

"Hey... she's a tough girl. She will get through this.. just like you did. She is strong, and brave. I promise as soon as the show is over tonight we can make a quick stop home to be there for Charlotte before we go to Canada."

I nod at that, still very upset.

"I guess I better call Danielle and tell them." I say, wiping a tear from my face with my sleeve.

Joe hands me my phone back and i tap a few times to get to Dani's number.

Danielle's POV:

We are all sitting at the table together enjoying some spaghetti and steak. The twins are rambling on about some TV show they were watching before dinner, when I get a little glimpse at Charlotte. She has hardly touched her food. She's just sitting there, picking at the bandage on her arm.

Suddenly I hear my phone buzz in my pocket. i pull out my phone and see the caller ID.

it's... Nick? Why is he calling me?

I excuse myself from the table and go into mine and Kevin's bedroom to take the call.

I sit on the edge of the bed and tap the green accept call button.
