Sixteen

Last night was the most sleep I have gotten in a week. It felt nice to wake up refreshed and relaxed. It seems the baby does too. Today I'm officially two months pregnant.

"When am I allowed to leave?" I asked, as the doctor starts to check my tempature.

"You look alright. I just don't want to send you home and then risk you hurting yourself." She sighs.

"I will be careful." I beg.

"Just stay one more day, and maybe tomorrow you can go home. I could send a nurse to check in on you each day.. I will have to think about it.."

Louis was in the chair next to my bed.

"If the nurse did check up on her everyday, would she have to be more careful?" Louis asked.

"Yes, because her lungs are just now properly working by themselves. And she needs a lot of rest for the baby. Rachel needs to eat a lot of healthy foods and drink a lot of water."

"I will make sure she does." Louis says.

"I made the police check in on Rachel's records, they told me that she lives alone. Rachel can never be alone." The doctor says in a serious tone. "She can't take a shower, Rachel will have to take a bath."

"Well my sister and her fiancé, plus my brother also a couple friends are staying at my apartment, so I guess you can say I'm not alone." I chuckle.

"This is a serious matter Rachel. There are more risks that you have to worry about. Just let me think about it." The doctor smiles and nods her head slightly, then leaves, shutting the door slowly.

Louis stares at me, he looks uncomfortable.

"You okay?" I ask him.

He still gives me a unsettle gaze, I have to admit the the intensity level in here is pretty bad.

"Louis please say something.."

"You could have died.." He trails off.

"Yes, I know. But look on the bright side, I'm still here." I force a smile, Louis's unsettling gaze is still upon me.

"I have to go." He mutters.

"Wait? You just said that you would look after me! Where are you going?" I say, now getting frustrated.

"I will!" He slams his fist on the table, making me jump. "I just need to go."

"Please don't shut me out again!" I beg. "Don't shut me out."

"Rachel, I'm not shutting you out.." He pauses. "I just need air to breathe because I feel like I'm suffocating with all of this!" With that, he left the room, slamming the door.
