" is she OK?" I asked the doctor as we stood outside of Isabella's room with me holding Scarlet.

" she has a mild fever, which isn't anything worry about just yet we're gonna monitor her overnight and make sure everything's OK" the doctors told me I'm not in my head while rocking Scarlet in my arms.

I walked past the doctor and wanted to Isabella's room to see her laying there, with a cold cloth pressed against her forehead " don't bring her to close" she told me talking about Scarlet " I don't wanna get her sick" she said

I'm nodded my head and turn to Anna " do you mind taking her outside or something?" I asked her she nodded her head yes and took Scarlet. Before walking out of the room.

I walked over to Isabella's bedside  " the doctor said it's just a fever" I told her she still looked worried

" what about the cramping?" she asked concerned for her well-being

" the doctor said that's normal you had a C-section" I said, trying to reassure her that everything is going to be OK

" I'm just paranoid" she mumbled I sat on the edge of the bed next to her, and we sat there in silence for a few moments

" how is this going to work?" I asked her breaking the silence that we were surrounded by.

" what" she asked me

I turned and looked at her  " this whole thing. Are we staying in New York?" I asked her worried for a response. I don't want to take Scarlet and Isabella away from something that they want but I have my business back in California and I have my kid with Rebecca. I can't stay here. but I don't wanna leave them.

" I don't know yet" she mumbled " I know you have to go back because of your business and Rebecca" she said, wincing a little bit at Rebecca's name. " how are we going to work" she asked

" what do you mean?"

" how are we going to work with Rebecca? I don't know how I can act like nothing happened between the two of you. you have a kid" she said basically refusing to even look at me.

I got off the bed and turned around, so my body was fully facing her before it got down on one knee and grabbed her hands in mine " I want to be with you I don't want to be with Rebecca. I want you I'm only gonna be there for Curtis." I said.

" Curtis" she mumbled

" that's his name" I told her referring to the fact Rebecca and I son is named Curtis

"Oh" she said

" Isabella I want to be with you. I am in love with you and I have been in falling in love with you since you've stepped foot in my office!" I told her she finally looked up at me

" if we make this work, I don't want you alone with her" she stated

" and I won't be" I told her " you will be around every time she's at the house I promise"

" we will go back to California, but if you break my trust, I'm done" she told me

" OK" I agreed, nodding my head repeatedly. I will do anything to make sure that we are together. I love her and I cannot lose her.

" do you mind getting the doctor?" She asked me.

" are you OK?" I asked her worried that something was wrong again. she shook her head now when I immediately left the room to find the doctor

" I need a doctor" I shouted out into the hallway. A few nurses and doctors looked at me and immediately came on our way.

" what's wrong" a doctor asked as he entered the room.

" I don't know" I said stepping back, so we had room to do what we needed to do.

" the cramping it's getting worse and my vision is going slightly blurry here and there" Isabella told the doctor . The doctor started doing assessments on her, such as checking, her blood pressure, her heart, and a few other things.

" who's your primary doctor?" he asked Isabella. I looked at Isabella's face and saw that she was in pain.

" Dr. Alice." I told the doctor he immediately told one of the nurses to page Dr. Alice.

" is she OK?" I asked worried

" I'm not sure, but we are going to figure it" he told me trying to get me to calm down as Dr. Alice walked into the room

" what's going on?" the doctor asked.

" BP is 180 and her heart rate is at 50 " The other doctor told Dr. Alice. The nurses surrounded Isabella and started to check some other things before one of them spoke.

" she's bleeding" the last time she was bleeding it wasn't a good sign.

" OK prep her for surgery" Dr. Alice said which made my heart drop

" what's going on?" I immediately asked " why does she need surgery?". Nobody was answering me. I didn't get an answer and nobody was even looking at me. I understand the focus on making sure Isabella's OK but give me some fucking answers.

" can somebody fucking tell me what's going on?!??" I shouted, catching the attention of Dr. Alice

" something must've went wrong during the C-section. We are taking her back up." she told me.

" is she going to be OK?" I said, looking at Isabella, who is dropping in and out of consciousness.

" we're gonna try our best" the doctor told me

" I'm gonna be OK" Isabella mumbled as I started wheeling her out of the hospital room

" you're gonna be OK" I mumbled to myself more so than her, as I watched her being wheeled way.

I went back into the hospital run and sat down and one of the chairs, placing my head in my hands. I tried to study my breathing and call myself down. She's going to be OK, she hast to be.

" where is Isabella?" I heard Tyler ask I looked up to see Tyler and Anna walking into the hospital room.

" they took her to surgery" I mumbled. I stood up and walked over towards Anna, taking Scarlet out of her arms and pulling her close to my chest.

I heard Tyler and Anna asking me 1 million questions but all I could focus on right now is the smell of Isabella lingering on Scarlet. I can't lose her. I can't lose her. I can't lose her.

I can't fucking lose her.
