The Rookie - Lost

Part 16

The next day, Tim and Lucy went to her appointment. They went to the room and a doctor walks in.

Doctor: "Good morning, I'm here for your ultrasound. Okay, could you please roll your shirt up." Lucy rolls her shirt up.

Doctor: "Just letting you know this will be a little cold." The doctor puts the gel on her belly and does the ultrasound. Tim starts tearing up at the sight of the baby and then is on the verge of crying when he hears the heartbeat. Lucy squeezes his hand.

Doctor: "Ok, your baby is healthy and well. You're just under three months, we will do fortnightly check ups due to your complications of your last pregnancy." The doctor gave them a picture of the ultrasound and walked back to the car.

Tim: "If it's okay me asking, but what complications was the doctor talking about? If you don't want to talk about it we don't have to."

Lucy: "It's okay, you have the right to know and I don't want to hide anything from you. Long story short, one of the girls breached, I was rushed into an emergency C-section and nearly lost one of the girls. The doctors said that if I ever was pregnant again they would have to monitor it closely."

Tim: "I'm so sorry angel. I didn't how bad it was for you. You must of been so scared, I can only imagine."

Lucy: "It was extremely scary, that's why I'm a little scared for this pregnancy."

Tim: "It's going to be okay. We'll get through this. Plus we also have a wedding to plan, so how about we spend the rest of the day planning our wedding." Lucy nods. They get home, and sit on the couch. Lucy sat so close to Tim that she was almost on top of him, so Tim pull her onto his lap and placed his hands on her belly.

Tim: "First off, location and date."

Lucy: "What about me being pregnant?"

Tim: "I don't care if you are pregnant, you're still beautiful to me. I'll marry you anytime, anyplace."

Lucy: "Okay, what about when I'm a little over 6 months?"

Tim: "Okay angel, let's lock in the date. What about the location?"

Lucy: "It's a little cliché, but what if we have it at the station?"

Tim: "Love that idea. Ok, now grooms men and brides maids."

Lucy: "Of course, Abby and Jackie will be the flowergirls. Jack can walk Jackie down the aisle and Kojo will be with Abby. My brides maids will be Nyla, Angela, Tamara, Bailey and Celina."

Tim: "Okay, then my grooms men will be Wesley, James and John."

Lucy: "The big topic now is parents."

Tim: "Well my dad is definitely not coming to spoil our day. I wish my mum was here to come to our wedding, she would have loved you so much. You remind me of her, and I wished that you had the chance to meet her."

Lucy: "Awww, I would've loved to meet her too. How about one night you tell me stories about her. It's pointless to ask my parents, they will just say no and lecture me about everything that is wrong with my life."

Tim: "Ok, no parents then. I have an idea, I'd like to pitch." She nods.

Tim: "What if you ask Grey to walk you down the aisle, he's like a father to both of us."

Lucy: "I love it, plus we can ask him about having the wedding at the station."

Tim: "So what are you going to do with your dress?"

Lucy: "I don't know what style of dress I want. But, I want you there with me."

Tim: "You sure, you don't want to keep it as a surprise?"

Lucy: "No, because I need you there. I can overthink my appearance and I need your opinion."

Tim: "Okay angel, then I want you there for me when I chose my suit." They both agree. They talk about a few more arrangements. 

They end up cuddling in bed, Lucy was snuggled up to Tim. She has been thinking about this all day.

Lucy: "Babe, do you think I pretty?" Tim was taken back by this comment.

Tim: "No ... you're breathtaking, drop dead gorgeous. When I first saw your, I thought that I was going to have a heart attack by how amazing you look. May I ask why you needed to ask the question?"

Lucy: "For my whole life, my mum has always criticised me. Saying that I need to lose weight, that I would squash anyone that I sat on and that no one would ever love me because of my weight. Thinking about everything, made me question it." Tim kisses her forehead.

Tim: "Well, you're bloody gorgeous. You don't need to lose weight, you're perfect the way you are and I love when you sit on my lap or lay on me. It's so comforting having you close to me. Now you're not gaining weight, your growing a human in your body and your body needs to adapt to the change. You're already a hot mama, and being pregnant isn't gonna change that for me. Your mum doesn't know what she lost, she lost the most amazing and caring person. But in her lost, I gained that amazing person." Lucy smiled at Tim.
