Twenty-nine

Hey there boo
I guess I should have explained it in the last chapter, but it was brought to my attention by a lovely reader that it didn't come across clearly. In the last chapter they put Luke in an x-Ray machine which (I know) is bad for someone who's carrying a child because of the radiation. Heck, when I had a pin stroke they didn't want to give me an X-ray bc they didn't want to expose me to radiation and I'm sure as heck not pregnant, so I know they wouldn't put someone who's pregnant in one. Hopefully this'll clear things up:-)

"Nothing showed up in the boy's scan I done on his brain. He thinks he's pregnant,how crazy is that?"

"You're joking."

"No! He even has a baby he's trying to pass off as his daughter that he birthed. His family is in on it too! I didn't know what to tell him, honestly. I just told him that he had a miscarriage."

"Are you allowed to tell them that if it's not true?"

"They're crazy. He won't know if I perform the operation I said I would or not. I'll just send them on their way tomorrow and this will all be over with."

Ashton clutched the coffee he was getting for Liz tightly in his hand, trying restrain himself from slinging the hot beverage right into the ignorant doctor's face. He knew she was talking about Luke. What other boy would telling doctors he's pregnant?

Deciding not to say anything, Ashton headed back to Luke's room where everyone sat around his room watching whatever cartoon was playing on the tv, Michael and Willow squished into the bed with a sad Luke, Liz and Calum sitting by the window in chairs they dragged from the hall.

"Luke, get up and get dressed, Calum go get the car." Ashton said as soon as he entered the room, handing Liz her coffee and pulling his keys out of his coat pocket to give Calum.

"What's going on? I have to have surgery in a few hours." Luke said, confusion sweeping over his features.

Ashton shook his head and grabbed Luke's clothes from the table by his bed, handing them to the blond. "They lied to you, Luke. They didn't even check your stomach to see if you're pregnant or not. They told you they did and that you had miscarried, but really they scanned your brain because they think you're crazy."

"How do you know this?" Liz asked.

Ashton lifted his beanie enough to run his fingers through his hair and then readjusted it. "The coffee pot was next to the nurses station and I heard Luke's doctor running her mouth. Just listen to me, they aren't doing anything for you here."

"So, I could still be pregnant?" Luke lifted his upper body from leaning on Michael's chest and took the clothes from Ashton.

Ashton glanced around at everybody. Fuck, he's not a doctor. "I-I don't know, Luke."

"Honey, just get dressed and we'll talk." Liz said, grabbing Luke's hand and helping him out of the bed. Luke made his way towards the bathroom to change as Liz turned to Michael. "Take Willow and go with Calum to the car. Ashton and I will see about getting Luke released early."

Michael nodded and secured Willow's hat on her head before following Calum out of the room.

"Ashton, are you sure about this?" Liz asked, grabbing her purse from the chair she previously occupied.

Ashton nodded and cleared his throat. "I heard the doctor call Luke crazy. She thinks we're all crazy. She's not gonna do anything to help him."

"Well, what are we going to do if he is pregnant?"
