I Can't Lose Him (ICDTNWY Sequel)

30.1

This chapter was split into two parts so the next part will be up soon. Again, thanks to all of you that did my survey! It will help me in my research paper, A LOT.

And here's my side of the 'deal', two parts of one chapter. Whoever actually did do the survey, these two parts are dedicated to you. <3

Calum.

"Are you okay you can stand on your own Cal?" Luke asked me as he held Alissa.

"I'm fine Luke. I'm done with this pregnancy, which means that I am capable of doing things on my own. You don't have to worry Luke," I said, my feet resting on the floor while I smiled up at him.

"I... I know. I just thought that, since this is your second pregnancy, you would be just as tired, probably even more," Luke said, "I don't want you to tire yourself out."

"I'm fine. I might just be a bit sore, but that's it," I told him.

He sighed then nodded.

Without hesitation, I jumped off of the bed and caught my balance, to mine and Luke's surprise.

I quickly changed my clothes with the clothes Luke brought from home. I then walked over to Luke and Alissa. I kissed her forehead.

"Hey baby girl. Ready to go home?" I softly asked.

Alissa continued to sleep in reply.

"I know I'm ready to go home. I'm sick of staying in this hospital room. I want to sleep in our own house, with our family," I told Luke.

"You will be able to soon love," Luke told me, kissing my forehead.

I smiled and nodded. I grabbed the baby bag for Alissa as we both looked at the door.

"After you."

I smiled. I walked to the door and opened it. I held it open for Luke. He walked out and I closed the door after him.

We walked out into the lobby. There, we saw Dr. Kawr.

"How are you guys feeling?" She asked.

"Great. It feels great to not have to walk around with twenty pounds on my stomach," I sighed.

"Well that's good. I need you two to sign a few papers before you leave," she said.

We nodded. Luke and I grabbed the clipboard Dr. Kawr was holding and signed the papers. We handed them back to her.

"Good luck you two. I'm not worried about the two of you, seeing how well you raised Stefan."

"Yes. We'll raise her like we raised Stefan," Luke said, smiling.

"Great. See you two soon," she said.

We waved to her as we walked outside. Luke lead us to our car. I sat in the back of the car and buckled Alissa into her car seat while Luke climbed into the driver's seat. I finished and put on my seat belt as Luke started to drive off.

It wasn't long until we got to our apartment. I unbuckled Alissa from her car seat while Luke gently picked her up and held her. We walked inside and walked to the level our apartment was on.

We walked into our apartment.

There, we saw all of our friends and family. My dad was sitting on the couch, holding and playing with Stefan. Liz and Andrew were playing with Stefan while cooing and playing with him as well. Lillie was sitting on the comforter, holding both of her babies while they slept. Michael was standing over the three of them with a loving smile on his face. Niko was sitting on the floor, playing with Stefan as well.
