Chapter 12 - Wake Up!

SIX MONTHS LATER

Angela's POV

"Jason! Wake up!" I screamed as I nudged Jason under the blankets.

"What?" He mumbled as he rolled over.

"I feel something. I-I think it's time!"

"What? Time for what?"

"The baby!"

"What baby?" He barely opened his eyes, obviously sleep-talking.

"Our baby! Jason, wake up. It's time!"

"How? It's not due for another month."

"I know, but still I feel it. It's actually time."

I softly jumped out of bed and looked at the sheets. There were blood stains, "Oh no. Jason. No. Please no. No, Jason!"

He finally sat up and looked at the bed, "Angela. Oh my gosh, are you ok?"

"Yeah. Well, no. I feel ok, but hurry Jason, call the doctor. Let's go right now!"

He jumped out the car and in less than three minutes we were in the car driving to the hospital.

"Here," I handed Jason my phone, "Call my parents right now. And yours too. They'll wanna be there."

"Ok," He took the phone and scrolled through my contacts until he found my mom's name.

"Hey, Mikayla? It's Jason. It's a emergency. Angela woke up bleeding and we're headed to the hospital. Meet us there, and hey, can you please call my parents too?"

"Yes, definitely, Jason. Tell Angela I love her and I'll be praying. We'll meet you there as soon as we can." I heard my mom say through the speaker.

"Thanks, Mikayla." He hung up the phone and handed it back to me.

I set it in my purse, "Jason. What are we gonna do if the baby isn't ok?"

"The baby is ok. Don't worry, Angela."

I was starting to cry and he put his right hand on my shoulder and I gratefully touched it.

 In a few minutes we arrived at the hospital and thankfully they were expecting us because Jason called them as soon as he woke up. They put me in a wheelchair and pushed me into a bright room full of medical equipment. I heard them tell Jason he had to stay in the waiting room. The doctor soon came in and started working on me after they gave me medicine to knock me out.

IN THE WAITING ROOM

Jason's POV

"Jason! Where's my baby?" I heard Mikayla's voice coming from behind me, "Is she ok? What about her baby?"

I saw Seth and Tom come in behind her, followed by their dad.

"I don't know. They're working on her now. Oh, Mikayla. I can't lose either one of them. I love Angela so much." Tears started rolling down my face.

"I know you do, Honey." Mikayla sat down next to me and patted my back, "They'll be ok. I know how much you love her. I'm very glad you two were able to become a family. Nothing's gonna happen to your wife or your child."

"Thanks, Mikayla. I'm trying to think positive, but it's so darn hard!"

I heard the sliding doors open and saw my parents and siblings walk in. My mom rushed toward me and sat on the other side.

"How's Angela and the baby?" She asked.

"They're not sure yet. The doctors are still in there." Mikayla said for me. "I'll let you two have some time." She walked up and went to her husband and started crying.

"Hello, you must be Mr. Aldean? Angela's husband?" A nurse wearing turquoise scrubs  entered the room.

I nodded, "How is she? And the baby?"

She motioned her hand as for me to follow her, "Come on. You can see her now."

"Can my family come too?" I asked.

"Of course." She smiled.

We solemnly followed her into room 219. I saw Angela lying still on a bed and I rushed towards her.

"Angela! Are you ok?" A few tears were falling down my already tear-stained face.

"Hey, buddy." She managed to say, "I'm alright. And look, you're a daddy!"

I looked in her arms, I noticed there was a squirming little body laying there, "Oh my gosh! Angela!" I saw it was wearing a blue hat, "It's-it's a boy?" 

She nodded. I looked through the tiny window in the door and motioned for my family to come in since they let me see her first, in case of bad news. They could tell by my huge smile that everything was ok.

"What are you gonna call him?" My mom asked as I picked up my little boy.

I looked at Angela, "Well? What did you have in mind?"

"Um, I've always liked the names Luke and Micah."

"I like Luke." I smiled at Angela and leaned down to kiss her forehead. "Well, do you guys like Luke?" I looked up at everyone to see if they approved and they all nodded.

"I guess it's Luke!" Angela smiled.

"Is the baby ok since he was born so early?" Seth stepped up to me and Angela.

She nodded, "Yeah. He's ok. He's gonna grow up and become a big strong man just like his daddy." She winked at me.

"How's it feel to be uncle?" I asked him, "Tom, come over here and see your little nephew." I stepped back so others could see Luke.

Tom used to be a lazy, selfish teenager, but in the last few years he's really grown into a mature adult. And Seth is just becoming wiser and smarter.

"It's awesome." Seth said, "I can't wait to hang out with him when he's older!"

"Yeah," Tom agreed, "Me too! I'll have to teach him something bout girls!"

"Oh no you don't." Angela teased, "Not yet. I want my little man to stay as little as he can for as long as he can."

Mikayla came up to her, "I agree. You enjoy your time with him now. His childhood will fly by way too fast. I mean, it seemed like yesterday when I was in your position with you!"

Everybody kept admiring baby Luke but then nighttime arrived and they went home to fix themselves some dinner. I went out and bought Angela some Popeyes, her favorite. We all decided that the next night we would go out to eat and celebrate Luke.

Tell me what you think of baby Luke! Did you think he was going to make it? Like his name? (It will have purpose later on if I decide to do a sequel book. Speaking of that, should I?)
