Sleepers

Chapter 6

~*~* I added this extra chapter in because... well... I felt like it ENJOY MY BEAUTS*~*~

We sat with Father Bobby in a third floor hospital ward, visiting Nicole, hoping she'd recover from a punctured lung. A gift from Gary.

She's currently unconscious, hooked onto one of those life support breathing machines, her mother was nowhere to be seen, we were the only real-like family she had. Father Bobby is straightening out her bed cover being the 'mother figure'

Michael had his hand linked with Nicole's, he had his head leaned on the bed besides her struggling to keep his eyes open, he'd been there with her all night.

"Michael." father Bobby shook Michael shoulder gently. He woke and squinted at the light.

"Your exhausted. why don't you go home and have a few hours kip, we'll stay here with Nicole"

"No. I'm not going anywhere" Michael demanded.    

just then the doctor came with a clipboard to check on Nicole's recovery.

"How's she doing?" I ask.

"Are you Nicole Martinez' family?" The doctor asked frowning at us.

"No. But were as close as it gets" Father Bobby stuck out a hand to shake.

"Father Bobby" He said.

"Nice to meet you. Well she's doing good-" a sigh of relief shuddered through all of us.

The doctor scammed through the paper on his clipboard. "but I do have some bad news" Our smiles turned to frowns.

"Erm... The baby inside her unfortunately didn't survive-"

Baby?

"Excuse me what baby" Father Bobby asked. Michael had risen from his seat. shocked.

"The 13 week baby, was effect-"

"Yeah- but, we wasn't aware that Nicole was pregnant" Father Bobby said.

The look on our faces were full of shock and confusion.

"Wait you mean, either you knocked her up, or-" John pointed to Michael.

Before we knew it Michael stormed off through the hospital doors, his teeth gritted. He walked, well I say walk her practically sprinted down the streets of Hell's Kitchen until he reached Nicole's apartment, he took a deep breath then stormed upstairs to the door. Banging on it vigorously Gary reluctantly opened the door in a sweatshirt and sweatpants, he was quickly taken aback by Michael throwing a punch at his face.

"WHAT TH FUCK YOU LITTLE SHIT-" Gary shouted tackling Michael who was going hysterical.  

"YOU KILL OUR BABY! YOU HURT MY GIRL! YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Michael was red from anger tears filling up in his eyes.

"YOU KILLED IT! YOU FUCKING BASTARD! YOU SON OF A BITCH! YOU KILLED IT!"

"you got Nicole pregnant? HA! your both as bad as each other. I always knew she was a slut, who would do anything to get the D"

At this Michael turned even more vigorous and began smashing ordainments.

... when Michael returned to the hospital we just thought he'd gone been crying at the shock of his dead unborn baby, how wrong we were. When Nicole successfully recovered from her punctured lung, she and Michael talked it out. They decided never to speak of it again and remained solid partners.
