the One I Call Daddy[SLOW UPDATES]

Chris Wheeler

I pace back and forth in the waiting room biting my nails.

Amber passed out and Lexi found her. We don't know much of anything. All we know is that she's in surgery.And that for now there both stable

"How is she?" Amber's dad says nearly rushing into the waiting room

"She's in surgery. Stable."

"And the baby?"

"She's good. There both fine there going to make it through."

"And you!" Her dad says pointing at me."You're the reason why my baby girl is in there fighting for her life. Because of you, her life has been hell."

"I'm so-" I was beginning to say but he cut me off.

"Save it for someone that actually cares about your sad pathetic life."

I scoff throwing my hands in the air."You think I like this. You think I want my child dead."

"You actually did," Lex said under his breathe.

"I'm sorry what?"

"I said you did now out of nowhere you want her. Do you even know her name or how far along she is."

"Katherine Wheeler. Seven months and two days."

"Katherine Savannah Roberts. Seven months two weeks four days." Lex cockily said.

"Well maybe if you weren't her fucking puppy following her everywhere I would of know."

"Sounds like your talking about yourself."

"The family to Amber Roberts." A doctor says walking in removing his mask.

Amber Roberts

I slowly open my eyes. Adjusting to the bright light. As I slowly turn my head looking around the room. It looked like a lot of people has come to see me as I see flowers and get well balloons scattered across the room.

"Please just wake up. Please, I need you Katie needs you." Lex whispered squeezing my hand.

"Lex..." I say coming off more as a whisper.

"Oh thank god," Lex says raising his head.

"W-what happened."

"You fainted an-"

I started crying closing my eyes breathing in sharply. "Is she i-is she dead."

He lightly chuckles caressing my cheek. "Princess there's nothing to worry about your both fine and healthy."

"But she's only seven months she wasn't ready."

He lays next to me pulling me closer." She's fine. I promise."

"Don't lie to me what's wrong with her."

"She can't breathe on her own but everything else is fine. She's very lucky."

"This is all my fault."

"Shhh don't blame yourself. As long as your okay and she's okay where good."

There was a knock on the door causing us to turn our heads. 

There he was the devil himself walking in my room. 

"Chirs w-what do you want," I say still feeling drowsy.

He walks closer putting a fluffy teddy bear on one of the spare chairs. "I wanted to make sure your okay."

"Does it look like I'm okay!" I say raising my voice.

"Dude just go. You caused enough damage."Lex says rubbing my shoulder to calm me down.

"Not until. I know they're both okay."

"Katie could have died because of you. Because of you, she doesn't get to be held. She has to just lay in an incubator till she can breathe on her own. You don't care and you never did." I yelled some more causing him to flinch.

"I care of course you care."

I chuckle looking at him like he was insane."You have a funny way of showing how you care." I say throwing my hands in the air laying back.

"Can we a least talk."

"About what. What do you want to talk about now."

"Can he at least leave." He says tilting his head towards Lex.

"Lex go check on Katie. Take some pictures for me k."

He nods his head placing a light kiss on my forehead before leaving the room. With just Chris and I in it.

"I actually care about you and Katie. So can you stop saying I don't."

"Oh, now you care. Couldn't tell from all the other times you denying her. You know I was fine you denying me but you own daughter wow."

"I had my reasons."

"Oh yeah, I forgot about you such good reputation. Wouldn't want to ruin that."

He groans kicking a chair. "Listen you think I like seeing you two like this. You think I like seeing my daughter fighting for her life."

"Oh, now she's your daughter. Hmmm, wonder what changed your mind."

"You changed my mind." He says in a soft low voice. "I'm so madly in love with you it hurts. And-and I thought maybe if I tried to act like a total ass then you will just forget about us. But then the more I realized it. The more I knew."

"Knew what. You're not even making sense."

"I love you! I just needed time to figure out."

"Well, I don't love you. All you gave me was pain and hurt and a bunch of promise that you didn't fulfill."

"So that's what you feel."

"Yes. I've moved on Chris. I hate to say it but we should have never started what we had in the first place."

"Oh, so all this is my fault!?"

"No, it's both of ours. All I'm saying is that this what you're doing has to stop."

"So what?"

"We co-parent Katie the best we can. That's all we can do."

"And what if I want to take her back to the east coast with me."He says smirking.

"She just a baby Chris, we can't just tose her around like she's a ball."

"So then what do you suggest me moving down here. And then what I'll just have to redo my whole career."

"Your Chris Wheeler I'm sure your reputation follows you everywhere," I say rolling my eyes.

"Haha very funny."

There were light knocks on my door before my opt doctor Ms.Jenner walks in. "Good Evening Amber and this is?"

"Chris. Chris Wheeler." He says with a cheesy smile.

"Well, Mr. Wheeler I need you to leave the room."

I smirk to myself. "He was just leaving."
