Happier Than Ever (Adoption story, 3rd book)

All Just a Headache

EMMY POV
I just woke up and my head is throbbing. I toss and tumble around in bed, until I feel some strong arms wrapped around me.

I slowly open my eyes and see the sunlight creeping in, then I groan in pain and dive under my covers.

"What's the matter babe?" I hear Awsten's groggy voice ask.

"My head" I mumble.

"What about it? Does it hurt?" He asks me and I hum.

"Here why don't you go shower and I'll make you breakfast okay?" Awsten says pecking my cheeks. I hear Awsten get up and shuffle away.

BRENDON POV
"Morning! How is she doing?" I ask Awsten as soon as he reaches the kitchen.

"She's alright, she'll be down in a bit" Awsten tells me as he makes a plate of breakfast for himself and Emmy.

After a few minutes, I see Emmy trotting down the stairs coming towards the kitchen.

"Morning Em! How are you?" I ask her.

"I'm fine, just my head hurts a bit" She tells me slowly and I nod.

We all eat our breakfast, after I went over to the studio in the back.

After awhile I play around with the musical instruments in there. I hear the studio door open and shut then I hear a tapping noise, where I then look up and see that it's Emmy, but she looks like she'll faint.

"Hey.. sweetie.." I say.

"Hi dad" she slurs.

"D-d-dad, I wanna ask you, how are you today? you sound awfully quiet" she questions me.

"Huh? Oh I'm fine, but what about you? You don't look too good" I tell her.

"Yea.. I'm fine just my head hurts a bi-" she says as her body goes limp on the studio couch.

"EM! EMMY! WAKE UP!" I shout as I get closer to her.

I pick her up and carry her out to the car which then we drive off to the hospital.

"Emmy, please stay with me baby" I say holding her hand.

As I stop at the Emergency Room entrance, I carry Emmy inside calling out for help.

A doctor noticed us, and had a gurney come by and take her in. I start to run after them but I was stopped by a nurse telling me to calm down and wait.

"What. No. No. That's my daughter. Pleasee. She needs to be okay!" I shout trying to push her away.

The nurse pulls me aside.

"Sir, I'm sorry but it's the hospital policy for us to treat the patient first before seeing their family so please sit out here and wait" the nurse guides me to the chair nearby.

Suddenly I hear someone asking me to move my car out of the way.

I jog back to my car and park it in the parking lot and slowly make my way back to the ER.

As I sit and wait for them to call me. I fill out the information they need for Emmy. After that I gave them the clipboard back and I go back to sitting in the waiting room.

I decide to call Sarah whom has no idea we are here.

"Hi honey" Sarah answers, all I hear is Elijah babbling.

"Hey babe" I sigh.

"What's the matter? Where are you?" She questions me.

"I'm at the ER right now" I say.

"WHAT!! Brendon Boyd Urie I swear to god, You better be fine. I just saw you earlier when did you-" Sarah rambles.

"Brendon.. I'm sorry. What's the matter?" I hear her reassure me as she hear me sniffling.

"It's.. it's. Emmy" I slowly say.

"What about Emmy? Is everything alright?" Sarah questions again.

"I took her to the hospital because she blacked out on me and wouldn't wake up" I ramble.

"Okay. Okay honey. I'm on my way. Be strong I love you" she says as she hangs up.

Another 30 minutes passes by. Finally I see the doctor that took us in.

"Urie" she says. I get up and walk as fast as I can towards her.

"Hello Mr. Urie. I am Dr. Miranda. I will be treating your daughter Emmy today" she says shaking my hand.

"Hello, You can call me Brendon. So any news on my girl?" I ask her.

"Actually yes, good and bad" she says.

"Okay, start with the good news" I say.

"Well good news, we found out what is happening, so she'll have to spend a few nights here, and here's the bad news. So you brought Emmy in and luckily you did in time because she was having stroke-liked symptoms which is pretty bad for her age. It seemed to me that she had a blood clot that was building up on her brain" she tells me.

"Oh my gosh. I should have known. She's been complaining all morning about a headache, because yesterday she fell and hit her head, and not that long ago she was shot in her arm, and her side" I explain.

"Ahh, yea they may be the cause to it, but we aren't quite sure yet, since we are still waiting for the tests to come back. But for the meantime, you may come into the room and stay with her" Dr. Miranda says.

"Okay, thank you" I tell her as she leaves me in the hallway.

I slowly make my way into Emmy's room.
She's attached to a breathing machine for her, her IV line, wires to her heart and now on her brain. She looks so precious, but very exhausted.

Ughh I really want her to wake up already and be fine. Please just let her be fine.
