Something More || A Morrilla Story

Part 35

Lana's POV:
Its been a week and a half since the accident and the doctors still haven't allowed Jen to wake up from the coma yet, but hopefully today will be the day. Sara and Olivia had spent mist nights back at our house while I stayed with Jen. Even while she was in the hospital, I refused to let not one night go by where I didn't sleep next to her. Every inch of the room was covered with flowers, cards, and balloons from fans all wishing she would wake up soon. Everyone from work has stopped by at least once, which I'm greatful for. They are like my second family, and I love them all dearly. Our daughter is great, I haven't called her anything yet, since Jen and I still never talked about what names we should use. The NICU doctor came in first thing this morning and told me that they were taking her off the breathing machines today and if all went well, I would finally be able to hold my baby girl.

After about an hour, a nurse comes in and begins to check Jen as they did every jour or so. "Ms. Parrilla, great news, Jen looks like she's ready to be woken up. We are going to run another MRI just to be sure." She said and a smile grew on my face. "Thank you." I say not knowing what else to say. Just then, the NICU doctor came in, carrying a little pink bundle. Tears began to form in my eyes, when I saw him. I stood up and walked up to him, now that I'm in a boot, I can walk. I held my arms out and he gently placed her in my arms. By this time, the tears couldn't stop, nothing could stop them from coming. I looked down at my daughter for the first time, a smile plastered on my face as she stares up at me with her beautiful blue green eyes that sparkle from the light above, just like Jen's. She gurgles and stretches in my arms and I give a quiet awe. "Hello baby girl!" I say happily and I walk back and sit in a chair while they take Me. To get another MRI. I can't stop looking at how beautiful she is and in what felt like only a few seconds, but really took over an hour, Jen and the nurses were all back in my room. "Well Ms. Parrilla, are you ready?" They ask as they put the syringe into the I.V tube. I nod and I walk over and sit on her bed, with the baby still in one arm as I grab and hold Jen's hand in mine. I watch her and I can already feel the tears begin to come back up again. She flutters her eyes and the tears begin to fall on my cheeks. She looks around the room until her eyes stop on me. "L-Lana?" She asks in a raspy voice and I laugh before I carefully lean down to hug her so greatful to have her back.

Jen's POV:
My eyes flutter open as I awake from what felt like a dream. I look around the room trying to figure out where I am. I take in mg surroundings for a moment until my eyes land on my beautiful wife. "L-Lana?" I say and she smiles as tears fall onto her cheeks and she leans in to hug me gently and that's when I notice she's holding something in... A pink blanket? And that's when I remember... My baby. But I thought I was having a boy? I look at Lana and smile before looking at the bundle in her arms. "I-is that-" I begin to say but Lana cuts me off. "Yes, this... This is our daughter." She says and the moment she said daughter, tears immediately began to sting my eyes. I held out my arms and Lana gently placed my daughter in them. She was so tiny and so beautiful, her eyes sparkling and blue green just like the ocean. She made a noise and the tears fell from my eyes and I chuckled. I had another beautiful daughter and I was over joyed. Lana watched us, tears in her eyes too. I look up at her and she leans in to kiss me, and I kiss her back hungrily. "How long was I out for?" I ask her. "A week and a half. They put you in a coma because you suffered a horrible concussion and broken legs." She explains and I nod. "And-" just when I was about to ask about Sara, she walks in the door way. "Hi m- mom!" She says happily when she notices that I'm awake. She runs over to me and hugs me, but before she does she notices the baby in my arms. She sits on my bed with Lana and for the next two hours she fills me on everything I missed while I was gone, but to be honest, j didn't hear a word of what she said. I was so happy to be alive, to be wit the ones who mattered to me the most, my wife, Sara, and our newest daughter. This small family, that I've learned to love was finally becoming what felt like a family from one of Henry's books. I kissed the baby's forehead and looked up at Lana and Sara who were smiling at me. Sara and Lana both got off the bed and took their phones our for a picture. When they were done Lana showed me the picture. "Perfect." I say before I lean in to capture her lips. "Now what about a name for you?" Lana asks smiling down at the baby in my arms. "What about pistachio or green bean?" We hear and we all break into laughter knowing exactly who it is. "Sorry witch, we aren't naming our baby after a nut." She says playfully as she gets off the bed and hugs bex. I smile. Its funny how much those two act like sisters on and off set, and I love it. "How are you doing Jen?" She asks as she comes close to me. "I'm better now that I'm awake and have everyone I love around me." I say with a smile. "So, baby names?" Bed asked and I nodded. "What about Alana? I've always liked that name." Bex says but I shake my head. "Its too close to Lana." I say and Lana nods her head in agreement. "What about Allison?" Lana asks with a smirk. "Absolutely not. I'm not naming her after one of my old characters." I respond with a laugh. "What about amber?" Lana asks. "Do you want her to be a stripper?" I ask laughing and Lana shakes her head. "What about Ella?" Sara asks and I smile and look up at Lana who is smiling at me. "That's perfect!" we say in unison and we look down beaming at Ella.
