Remenissions (Avenged Sevenfold)

Chapter 77

Matt's POV

"Lana what happened?" I asked her as we drove to the hospital.

She was sitting there, crying quietly, wiping her face and she was worrying me, a lot.

"Oh." She said, wiping her face again. "A drug addict came into work tonight and when we working on him, he kicked out, got me." She reached out blindly and grabbed hold of my hand.

I took hold of her hand, glancing at her. "And what, kicked you in the stomach?"

She nodded, sniffling. "Yes, I fell over."

"Okay okay." I said softly, squeezing her hand. "Maybe you broke a rib or something." I suggested and she shook her head, wiping at her face again.

"Maybe." She said softly, looking out the window.

"It's okay Lana." I murmured. "It will be okay, they'll know what to do."

Lana looked at me and shook her head again, then she burst into tears.

God, what was going on? She was scaring me. I knew she was tired, but this, this was more than tiredness. Something was seriously wrong with her and that worried me a lot.

We pulled up at the hospital and I parked the car, jumping out and running around the other side to help Lana out of the car. I wasn't sure if she was in pain or what, I just knew that she was still crying.

"Shh." I said softly, pulling her into my arms.

I kissed her softly then guided her towards the entrance. We walked into the ER and looked around. It was actually pretty quiet and we made our way over to the desk where a nurse was seated, looking bored.

She looked up and half smiled as we approached her. "Yes?" She asked.

"My girlfriend needs to see a doctor." I told her, pulling Lana closer.

"Okay sweety." She said smiling. "What's the problem?"

Lana glanced at me, then looked at the nurse. "I got hit tonight at work, pretty hard." She wiped at her face again. "And well." She looked at me, then back at the nurse. "Well I think I'm having a miscarriage."

She said the last part really quickly so at first I didn't think I'd heard her properly.

"Okay." The nurse said softly. "You come on through."

She pressed a buzzer and some doors opened and she got up meeting us at the doors. We followed her and she led us into a cubicle.

"You jump up here." She said to Lana. "One of the nurses will be here shortly." And she went to leave. "Try and relax." She said to Lana, and Lana nodded, biting her lip.

"Isn't she a nurse?" I asked Lana as the nurse left.

"Yeah but she's the triage nurse." She said softly, closing her eye's.

I nodded and glanced around the room, looking, thinking. Did she say miscarriage? I just wasn't really sure.

I opened my mouth to ask her when the curtain pulled back and another nurse walked in smiling.

"Hi, I'm Annie." She announced. "So, tell me what's happening?" She said looking at Lana.

"Um." Lana said biting her lip. "I got hit tonight at work, pretty hard I guess and now I'm bleeding."

I sat back in the chair and listened. I wasn't sure what I was feeling right at this moment.

"So you're pregnant, um?"
