Unexpected love

Chapter Twelve: Birthday trauma

Emma's POV
-- one month later ---

It was finally Henrys 13th birthday. My birthday was 2 weeks ago, and I came 32. But today was Henry's day. From the Christmas eve sickness he had, he seemed to fall ill once a week now. But I have never thought anything of it. Lily had left New York to go back to England last month too.

"So how's your birthday been so far? Did you like all the presents you got?" I ask him. "Mom. It's okay I love them all" he says smiling at me. "Guests should be arriving for the party soon okay kid." I said tapping his shoulder. He nods and walks into the living room. I start making the snacks for the party when I hear a knock on the door.

"Its okay mom, its only Killian and Liam." Henry shouted from the door. I sighed in relief and cleaned my hands with a cloth. I ran into the living room and hugged Killian. "Hello love." He said into my ear." Hi, I missed you." I replied. "Its only been a few days." He giggles. The doorbell goes off and that's when I knew that guests where beginning to arrive. As I went back into the kitchen I hear teenage boys walking and laughing in my house. It made me smile as I knew it made Henry happy.

At 4pm all of the invited guests had turned up and everyone was in the back garden where the party was taking place. As I was busy taking out the food and drinks, Killian stopped me in the kitchen. "I think the boys have enough food and drinks to last the rest of the week. Sit down and have a drink yourself." He says holding my arm and taking a platter of food out of my hand.

An hour or so later of sitting in the living room together, Killian stands up "I'm going to go check on them boys outside." He says smiling and taking my glass into the kitchen. I smiled and sunk back into the sofa.

"Emma!!!!!! Get out here!!!" I hear Killian scream. I jump up and run out the back. "Oh my gosh! Henry!" I said falling to the ground beside him. Henry was passed out on the ground and was burning up quickly. "Killian lift Henry into the living room and I'll call an ambulance. Liam keep everyone out here." I said panicking like crazy. Killian lifts Henry and gently places him on one of the sofas. I rung and ambulance to come and then ran into the living room to be with Henry.

'What happened?!" I asked as I touched Henry's burning head. "I don't know! I went outside to give the boys more juice and he just fell to the ground unconscious." Killian explains to me. "I knew something was wrong. He had been sick for weeks and now he's getting worse." I said begining to cry. "Hey, this isn't your fault! The ambulance will be here soon to take him to hospital, then we will find out what's going on." Killian says wiping my tears away. I nod and grab Henrys hand and rub his fingers.

I hear the door knock and Killian answers it. It was the paramedics. They took one look at Henry and knew something was wrong. They brought in a stretcher and placed him on it and wheeled him into an ambulance. "You go with him. I'll stay until everyone's been collected, then me and Liam will meet you at the hospital okay?" Killian tells me. I nod slowly and kiss his cheek. I ran after the paramedics and into the ambulance.

In the ambulance they start to hook Henry up to all sorts of machines. They put on oxygen mask on his face and start him on fluids. The ambulance sped through the New York traffic and the sirens began to hurt my ears. But my main focus, was Henry.

Killian's POV

I could see the panic on Emma's face. I could tell she was worried for her son's health. So I stayed behind to make sure all the guests for home safely. I then locked Emma's house with the keys she had given me and got into the car with Liam and drove off to the hospital.

When we arrived at the hospital we thought Emma was already there so we walked to the receptionist to ask if Henry had been admitted.

"Hello, how can I help you?" The woman sitting at reception asked. "We just wanted to know if Henry Cassidy has been admitted and what floor?" I asked nicely. "Sure, I'll check for you right now." She replied. A few short tense moments later she looked up from her computer.

"He is in the children's intensive care unit. Unfortunately only family is allowed in this floor until authorized by a Parent or Guardian." She explains. "Would there be a way that you could contact his mother to come down to meet us? We are in a relationship and I just want to make sure she and Henry are okay." I asked. "I can contact the unit to send her down yes." She smiled. "Thank you so much." I smiled back. I brought Liam over to the chairs to sit and wait for Emma to come down.

"Killian." I look up and Emma is standing in front of me with a red blotchy face from the amount of crying she must have done. "Emma." I stood up and hugged her tightly. "Is he okay love?" I asked her. "Not really, he's hooked up to all these machine's Killian, its unbearable." She cries into my shoulder. "Its okay, he will pull through. We've just got to believe and have hope."
