The Future Together

Chapter 6

-----Alex' POV-----

I arrived back in the palace and I quickly get down from the car. I enter the palace to see Sophia waiting for me.

"Where is she" I ask as she approaches.

"In your room, with your mother" she replies as I nod and we both quickly walk towards the room.

"What happened?" I ask while walking.

"Adelaide found me and told me that Amelia was throwing up. I went to her and found her in the bathroom, and she told me it was just morning sickness" she says "Soon your mother came and Amelia threw up again before we were able to bring her back to bed as she was also feeling dizzy"

"At a certain point, Victoria had some food sent so Amelia could eat. However, she wasn't able to keep it down" she explains and I nod as we reach the door.

"One more thing, I didn't tell her that I called you. She didn't want me to call you when I first suggested. It was Victoria who later decided to do so"

We enter the room as I immediately spot Amelia laying on the bed with my mother seated on one of the couches as they both notice me and Sophia enter.

I walk over to Amelia as I sat on the side of the bed and held her hand.

"How are you feeling?" I ask

"Dizzy" she replies before closing her eyes for a few seconds.

"Is there anything you need?" I ask as she slightly shook her head.

"Alex" my mother calls as she gestures for us to go outside and I nod.

"I'll be back" I tell Amelia as I kiss her before walking out of the room.

"Alex, I think we should call for the doctor. She doesn't have any fever, and she's loosing too much fluids in her body at this rate" Mother says

"I'll call Dr. Anderson now" I say as she nods before entering the room again.

I grab my phone as I call Dr. Anderson and she quickly answers.

"Good Afternoon Your Royal Highness, what can I do for you?" She asks as she answers and I tell her all that Sophia told me.

Once we end the call, I enter the room once more as mother stands up from her seat and Sophia does the same as I approach them.

"What did the doctor say?" Mother asks quietly to avoid Amelia from hearing.

"She needs to be brought to the hospital" I say as she and Sophia nod.

"I'll be back. I'll go inform your father. He's with Adelaide at the moment" Mother says as she leaves the room.

"I'll prepare a few things Amelia may need" Sophia says as I nod and walk over to Amelia.

"Darling, we need to go to the hospital" I say while seated beside her.

"I'm fine, it's just a little dizziness"

"You've been throwing up the entire day. Dr. Anderson just wants to do some tests to make sure it's nothing dangerous" I say as she sighs before nodding.

I get up as I grab a few things I might need should we need to stay the night in the hospital.

Soon mother returns, just as Sophia finishes packing some things for Amelia.

"Your father and I will stay here with Adelaide. Update us and inform us if you need anything" Mother says as I nod "The cars are ready at the back entrance"

"I'll place the bags in the car" Sophia says as my mother helps her while I walk back towards the bed.

"Love, I will carry you to the car alright?" I say as Amelia nods with her eyes closed.

I gently carry her as I walk towards the back entrance. It didn't take long before we arrived and I placed her in the car as I sat beside her.

Amelia and I sat at the back while Sophia was seated at the front and Jason was driving.

.....A Few Minutes Later.....

We arrived at the hospital and we quickly entered to avoid us being spotted by people.

Dr. Anderson was there to greet us as she directed us to a room. Currently she is checking Amelia to do certain tests.

We didn't have to wait long before she entered the room with the results.

"Amelia, it appears you have Hyperemesis Gravidarum" Dr. Anderson says

"Is it harmful for her and the baby?" I ask as Dr. Anderson shook her head.

"No, it won't harm either of them. It is just a more severe type of morning sickness" she says before turning to Amelia "Though, I will have to require you to stay. If there is improvement in the next few hours, I can allow you to return tomorrow at the earliest " she says as Amelia nods while an IV is being placed.

.....A Few Hours Later.....

We were in the room with Sophia as we were talking to each other when my phone started ringing.

I looked at the name to see it was my father. I excused myself as I left the room to answer the call.

"Alex, people know you're both there" Father says the moment I answer.

"How? We went through the back entrance" I explain as I look around.

"Apparently, someone visiting a patient saw you both enter and took a picture. Now, the press know as well and they're waiting for an announcement. I'll have to announce the news today"

"Give us a few hours, her family doesn't know anything about it yet" I say as he agrees and he asks about Amelia before we end the call as I enter the room.

"Is everything alright?" Amelia asks as she looks at me.

"The press found out that we're here. Father needs to release a statement by the end of the day" I explain

"But it's too early, anything could go wrong" she says as I approach her.

"I know, but we have no choice" I say as I sat down on the chair beside her.

"We haven't told Addie and my family yet" she says quietly.

"We have to tell them now" I say as she sighs before nodding.
