The day she realises. [COMPLETED]

Planning

(Previously)

It had been four weeks since Ollie's proposal and everyone in the hospital new. They had been clothes and furniture shopping for the baby and had even been browsing in some wedding shops. Ollie had even managed to persuade Zosia to go on Maternity leave at the end of the month.

(Present)

Zosia tossed and turned in bed worrying about her last day on Darwin before she went on her maternity leave. She was only 8 months she thought to herself. She worried about if the baby would be born premature or if there were any complications. She didn't want her baby to be hurt and that's why she wanted to stay in the hospital so she was safe from her thoughts. If she was busy then she couldn't think of such things. "How has Ollie managed to persuade me?"Zosia thought to herself.  She smelt a whiff of coffee and dashed to the toilet which she hadn't had to do for months.

After being sick she shouted,"Ollie I thought that we had discussed this! NO COFFEE!!!" Zosia went bright red and charged at Ollie like a bull in a chine shop.

"Zosh..Im sorry but you need to calm down otherwise you'll hurt the baby."He tried to explain.

"I'm fine Ollie. This is my last day before you make me stay at home and watch T-V!" She replied.

He took a deep breath before continuing,"Look Zosh... you know I worry. It's just Tara and I never had this and...oh I just love you and our baby so much."He spluttered half-crying as he put his hand on Zosia's big baby bump. Zosia smiled as she put her hand on top of Ollie's.

"For once Ollie we're not late. Typical though with it being my last day!"She joked. Ollie laughed and began putting on his clothes.

"Ollie?"Zosia asked.

"Yeah?"

"I'm scared that something will happen to our baby.."She muttered whilst putting on her new maternity t-shirt.

"Nothing will happen Zosh. You will be the best mum to our little chump and we will bring him/her home."He cheerfully said. Zosia half-smiled as she felt better but still new what could happen.

They arrived into work 15 minutes early which was a new world-record for them. Elliot Hope was arriving in his car just as they were walking through the Wyvern entrance. Zosia stopped.

"Zosh,are you alright?"

Zosia put both her hands to her stomach and giggled,"Yeah it's just the baby hiccuping.."

Ollie breathed out and Serena tapped him on the shoulder,"Nothing like an over-protective first time dad is there Dr Valentine?" She teased and Zosia laughed.

"Yes nothing like it!"Ollie replied through the grit in his teeth.  He held Zosia's arm up to Darwin and made her a hot chocolate in the staff room before the start of their shift.

Ollie passed her the hot drink "There you go Zosh."

"Thanks Ollie..Remember this time almost 2 years ago. We hated each other."Zosia giggled.

"Well you might have hated me and my atrocious attitude and grieving but I secretly loved you. I was so envious of Seb. The looks he gave me every time he caught me looking at you!" He blurted without thinking.

"You were really that into me..that's kinda creepy."She joked.

"But seriously though Zosh. I love you."Ollie said.

"Okay enough with the mushy stuff Dr Valentine..Oh my.."Jac ordered but stopped half way as she saw Zosia heavily pregnant.

"Now who has the urge to make babies Dr March?" Jac asked smirking.

"Jac!"Ollie exclaimed as he went to give his old lover and friend a big hug. Zosia's smiled was wiped away. She knew that her being pregnant was just another insult in the bag for Jac Naylor to throw at her. Thankfully though it was her last day until her daughter or son was old enough for her to go back to work.

Jac gave Zosia a smile before asking,"When are you due? 2,3 weeks?"

"Yeah..I'm eight months today. Ollie's forcing me to go on maternity so it's my last day today! Whoopee for me!"

Jac gave a sympathetic smile, "He was always one for worrying. But seriously Elliot will be on a search party and I am no longer in charge of this ward so we should get a move on." Se state as they all walked out the room.

"Welcome back Jac!" Welcomed Elliot.
"Hello Elliot." Jac replied trying to avoid a hug.
"How's Emma and Jonny?" He asked.
"They're good... Why"
"Oh nothing..." Elliot replied looking at Jac's appearance as he walked over to his patient.
Jac thought for a moment,"Jonny didn't tell Mo and Elliot I was pregnant again did he?" She shook it off and she too treated her first patient.

Meanwhile. Zosia and Ollie were flirting outside the stock cupboard and were drawing attention until one of the patients walked up to Zosia and asked,"No wedding ring? You dirty cow!" The old woman tutted. Zosia's eyes welled with tears as she fled to the toilet and cried.  She looked down at her baby and felt it kick. She giggled like she always did and wiped away her years just as Jac walked through the door.
"Oh sorry Dr March!" Jac apologised.
"Ms Naylor, I don't mean to offend you and it is a great change but are you feeling alright..It's just you're....."Zosia trailed off holding onto her stomach.
"I'm what F2?"Jac asked aggressively.
"You're being really nice to me. And you never really liked me..." Zosia blurted. Jac looked horrified. It was true she had never really liked the F2 but she was tolerable-they were on the same page on some subjects.  "Maybe it's just because I'm pregnant" Jac thought to herself. In all of this time Zosia had gone a pale colour and was leaning against the sink.
"Zosia? Are you alright? Do I need to get Ollie?"
"No!" She snapped bit straight after she apologised.
"Sorry...please can you just tell him I'm going home. I'm just a bit stressed. And thanks Jac,I mean Ms Naylor for looking out for me!" Zosia smiled as she waddled to the car with one hand on her stomach and the other in her back.
She was now officially in her maternity leave and it was time to plan for the future....
