Sturniolo Tower (Matt Sturniolo)

9. Hospital

Matt's POV

The room was bleak as I stared at Y/N lying in the hospital bed. I'll never forget the tone of Logan's voice when he said my name. I knew something was wrong.

I didn't care about the business call I hung up on. I remembered my feet on the floor, my eyes managing to cast themselves on Y/N as she mumbled softly before collapsing in Logan's arms. "She said something wasn't right, give me the phone" he said, laying her down as I fell to my knees, supporting her head.

If it wasn't for him, I think I'd have lost my mind. Looking at her, pale and weak.

I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked up to see Logan beside me with a coffee. He handed me the cup and I nodded, trying to thank him. I didn't feel like speaking.

I now know the pain Y/N felt when it was me lying in the bed. I can only imagine how she would have felt two weeks I was asleep, having doctors coming in and out and asking for permission things for different things.

Had she eaten?

I don't know, she's usually meticulous with eating and eating healthy, the woman had me eating healthy meals the whole time I was on bed rest.

All I know is there was a cup of tea on the counter and chocolates that were sent with the bouquet.

"Any news on why she fainted?" Logan asked and I shook my head.

I haven't gotten news on Y/N besides the fact she should be okay, just tired.

"They're still running tests, she's stable and okay. It's an overwhelming feeling to know things could have been worse" I said, my voice breaking.

"And the baby?"

I took a deep breath and looked at the ceiling, feeling like my world is falling around me again.

"It's okay, they told me it was a close call" the words were bitter in my mouth. Hearing that it was a close call, broke me more than anyone could imagine. "I shouldn't have gone back to work"

I looked at Logan as he sat in the chair beside me. "Matt, you didn't know this would happen"

I shrugged. "I should have stayed home, I should have brought her upstairs and I should've paid attention to the pain in her eyes" I couldn't help but feel I could stopped this from happening, but I took her word for it. I thought she was tired and moody and didn't want me to smother her.

"This isn't something you could have predicted...they're both okay" Logan tried to make me feel better, but let's face it, nothing he says will make me feel better.

I sipped my coffee. "If anything happens to either of them, Logan, I don't think I'll cope" I mumbled, trying my hardest not to think of how things could have ended.

"I know...you really love her. I see that"

He doesn't know how much I love her. It's cliche, but I'd give my life for her. I'd give her my last breath if that was possible and take all her pain away.

She made me fall in love with her, it may not have been easy at times, but it happened. From the minute I got a date with her, I knew she was the one I wanted to take home.
