Chapter 139 Going to the hospital/Welcome to our world baby Em

July 23 Saturday

Rory was miserable. 4 days past her due date. The twins were early, as twins usually are, so she did not know how it felt to be late. She was never late for anything. But she was late. She spent most of her day in the pool. She had a nice tan on her face and arms. The rest of her body stayed in the water. It was so much more comfortable. It was cool and the water made her feel weightless, not to mention it was relaxing. Logan and Ricky made her a tray that floats. She had started eating fruit while in the pool. Her body craved fruit any type of fruit. It was well known that any visitor that wanted to visit with Rory should bring their swimsuit.

Now that things have calmed down, and Melissa does not pose a threat, some of the security was lifted. Not all. During this time, Logan realized that anything could happen to his family and as long as he has the money, his family would have security.

It was Saturday morning, Logan was in the home office working. Rory was in the pool. Ricky and Karson took the boys to a pool party at Honor's. Rory paddled over to the edge of the pool and grabbed her phone. "Logan, come get in the pool with me," Rory asked. "Ace, I need to finish this up. Can you give me 30 minutes?" "I guess I don't have a choice." She put the phone down and paddled back toward the diving board. She was relaxing, leaning on a pool noodle. This had become her favorite way to float. She felt something warm on her leg. She smiled. Her water broke. Baby Em will be here shortly. She paddled back over to her phone and called Logan. "Ace, babe, I know you want me to come to play, but every time you call it is delaying me coming to the pool" "I'm not calling you to ask you to come to play. I want you to take me somewhere." "Ace, as soon as I finish, we will do whatever you want" "But Logan, I need you to take me to the hospital so we can meet baby Em," Rory said. Logan was trying to get finished so he could do whatever Rory wanted. He wasn't paying full attention. "Okay give me a minute," Logan said. "Okay, but I'm going to need you to help me out of the pool," Rory said. She took her hand to wipe her leg and realized it was blood. "Hey Logan, I'm gonna need you now. I'm bleeding." Logan didn't answer, he took off toward the pool.

When he got there, Rory was sitting on the steps. There was blood everywhere, Logan started dialing 9-1-1. "Logan, it's not that bad. It's mixed with water, but you have got to help me up so I can go change to go to the hospital." Logan put the phone down, kicked off his shoes, and stepped down the steps. By the time he had her out of the pool, his shirt and pants were wet. He helped her up the stairs to their room. He helped her out of her swimsuit and into a house dress. He was trying to find her some panties when she moaned. Logan froze, "Ace?" he turned around to see her bent over holding her stomach. The contraction was over before Logan could get to her. "Grab my bag and Em's bag. In the top of my bag is a towel with a trash bag between the folded layers." Logan grabbed the bag and opened it. Several things fell out when he grabbed the towel. He was stuffing everything back in the bag when Evelyn came up the stairs, "Rory, Logan?" "In here Evelyn" Evelyn walked through the door. "Everything okay? I went to check on you and saw blood in the pool." She said, "My water broke while I was floating." "What do you need me to do.?" "Can you help me to the car? Logan is bringing the bags." Evelyn walked to Rory and helped her up. "Do you have your towel and trash bag?" Evelyn asked. "Yes, it's right here," Logan said, following them down the stairs. Logan and Evelyn got Rory situated in the car. As Logan was getting in, Rory told Evelyn. "I will call Dr. Boyett. Will you call the list? It's on my desk in the office, '' Rory said. "Call the pool service and have them come clean the pool." Logan opened the garage door and started backing out. "Oh, tell Karson and Ricky not to let the boys near the pool until after it has been cleaned. Also when you start making calls, tell them not to hurry. The contractions are far apart right now. Tell them we will keep them updated." Rory was yelling out the window as Logan was backing the car out of the garage.
