"I wanna see Joe." Demi mumbled as she laid back on a hospital bed, in a situation like this she wanted Joe by her side so they could help each other through the situation but she knew what happened to Joe was probably the tipping point to why she had gone into an early labour, the stress of it all was too much for the two little boys.
"As soon as we know this medication has worked I'm sure you can go see him."Jenna assured her. She had come to keep Demi company since she didn't have anyone for herself besides Joe who was fighting for his life. They had induced him into a coma for a couple of days, it's what his body needed to recover from what had happened. The next couple of days were crucial and touch and go, anything could happen but they were all praying her would make it through.
"It appears to be working, I haven't had a contraction in a while, I'm glad cause it's too soon for them to be born." Demi spoke.
"That's good then, just stay positive. I'm sure Joe will be fine, he has so much to look forward to I doubt he's going to leave us so soon."
"I just don't want to get my hopes up to be honest, I told him to go if he can't cope, I don't want him to suffer." Demi mumbled closing her eyes. Jenna grabbed her hand comforting her. Jenna knew her little brother though, he wouldn't be giving up without a fight. He was stubborn that way. He was only eighteen, he didn't deserve to die at this age, they were all just relieved that Gary was caught, Joe wouldn't have any more problems with him and neither would Demi. They would get their justice. As long as Joe made it through this.
"Have you thought about any names yet?" Jenna inquired wanting to get her mind of everything that had happened just to make her feel better.
"I've thought about some names but I was going to have that conversation with Joe when they arrived but I guess we can talk about it when he's better now he knows," Demi answered, she was still a little upset that he even knew at this point. "If we have anymore I think I'll leave it a surprise so nobody but the hospital will know, Joe would get his way."
"I thought you wouldn't be able to wait?" Demi laid a hand down on her bump as the movement settled down. She was relieved.
"I don't know but I think I can do it for Joe." Demi mumbled.
"Go to sleep, it's been a long morning." Jenna encouraged Demi nodding her head gently as she settled down herself falling to sleep as soon as she could.
When Demi woke up she had a check over to make sure everything was running smoothly and that labour had actually stopped for her and it had. Demi had never been so relieved in her life. She was excited about meeting her boys but this was just too soon, she knew they might arrive early but at twenty five weeks was just too early. She was pushed through into Joe's room in a wheelchair where she wanted to see him and see it for herself.
"I'll come back in half an hour or so to take you back to your room." The nurse spoke as she helped her up from the wheelchair and onto the chair next to his bed. She had to hold back tears as she laid her eyes on him for the first time.
"Thank you," She managed to stammer as the nurse left the room. "She leaned over holding onto his hand, she wanted him to know that she was here for him. "You should know that I went into an early labour but they managed to settle it down before my waters could break. Our boys will be okay for hopefully a while." Demi explained leaning over kissing his cheek. She'll admit she was still worried about him and even more so now she was sat with him and could see how rough he looked. She could clearly see where he had been stabbed the wound being stitched up and left uncovered for the air to get to it, he had antibiotics to stop a infection forming She just wanted him to make it through this so he could meet his two boys with her and continue to raise them.
