ASLEEP // A DOVE AND RYAN FAN FICTION.

Chapter 10// Overheard.

RYAN'S the POV: 

My nose twitched.
I woke up sat in a wheelchair in our bedroom.
I was home. Thank god.
I could hear two muffled voices coming from the living room.
"So..when did you find out?"I heard a familiar voice ask. I was sure it was Dr June, but she sounded happier than usual..well..less depressed..probably because she wasn't in a bleak and boring hospital room putting band aids and bandages on people.

I'd obviously never been in a wheelchair before, but I did kind of know how to use one.
I placed my hands on the wheels and tried to move forward.
I did..kind of..?!
I knocked over a vase in the process, but managed to catch it before it smashed on the floor.
I stopped in my tracks.
Chloe was talking about 'bedroom colors' and 'cribs'
At first I was thinking "oh god, she better not be redecorating our bedroom" but then I realized..why would we need a crib?
'Was it for our cats? She was always buying special luxurious cat food for them so maybe she was taking it to the next level by buying them a crib?' I thought to myself, raising my eyebrows and scratching my neck in confusion.
"So..when are you due?"I heard Dr June ask Chloe.
'Due!? Wait..was she pregnant..?!' I thought to myself, happiness welling up inside of me.
"Chloe.."I muttered.
She must have heard me because she turned her head and smiled at me.
She ran up to me and flung her arms around my neck.
"Ryan! Hey baby you okay!?" She asked me, kissing my cheek.
I nodded my head
"Did you hear anything?"she asked, smiling at me.
I nodded
"So you're.."
"Pregnant..yes.." She grinned.
"Baby..I'm so happy for you!" I said, kissing her forehead.
"Us..for us baby"she smiled, burying her head in my chest.
I stroked her hair and kissed her head.
"So..we're having a baby.."I whispered, hot tears in my eyes.
She nodded, and I kissed her lips passionately.

Dr June walked up to us, smiled, and told us she'd be leaving us.

But before she left I asked her "how long..do I have to be in this thing?"

She patted my back
"Hopefully not too long..as long as you don't try to get out of it yourself and always get help from Chloe getting into the shower, you should be out in about 1 month max" she answered, sighing.
"I've gotta go, you two have fun" she smiled, opened the door, and left.

Chloe helped me out of the wheelchair to get into the bed in the spare bedroom.
I felt as if I was a little kid again.
She told me she didn't want me to sleep next to her for a couple of weeks because I was wearing so much plaster on my legs and she didn't want to hurt me or kick me out of the bed whilst she was sleeping.
It was probably the best idea though because Chloe was quite a restless sleeper.

I slept like a rock that night.
I finally felt safe and comfortable, but what I really wanted was Chloe beside me..
I wanted to hold her close..feel her presence..
Feel her love.
