Changes (Swanqueen Au)

Chapter 7 (I love you)

"We need a stretcher and an oxygen tank! Now!" The paramedics rushed around and slowly lifted my limp, barely even alive body. "Hey kid, what's your name?" A woman asked Henry. "Henry, is my mommy okay?" He asked, I was rushed into an ambulance barely conscious. "Hey, honey can you tell me your name?" A female paramedic asked me. "Re-Regina. Regina Mi-Mills." I stuttered, full of pain, and despair. "Okay Regina, do you have any medical issues we should be aware of?" The paramedic asked I moved my head to get a closer look at her. My whole body ached. My head was pounding, like somebody had just shot my in the head with a nail gun. The woman had brown hair, similar to Henry's and bright green eyes. "Ca-Cancer. Leu-Leuk-Leuk-" I tried to tell her but my body wouldn't cooperate. "Its okay honey, we'll get you to Doctor Swan. Okay?" Emma. The thought of her relaxed me. "Nothings gonna change my love for you." I whispered. I fell into a deep sleep.

I was unsure how long I had slept for, but I awoke to Emma, staring at me, from a chair nearby. "Regina!" I heard her yell. I smiled and turned to see Henry. "Mommy! Mommy I five!" He yelled excitedly. I frowned and looked over to Emma. "You were in a medically induced coma, for three months." She explained. I frowned. "Why?" I asked, she ushered Henry out of the room. "Your cancer, it spread, you have a tumor, in the left side of your brain. It isn't terminal now, but you must understand, there isn't a cure." She said, basically crying. "Nothings gonna change my love for you." I sang to her. She smiled and kissed my head. "Hey, I know we aren't really a thing, but how about I monitor you, stay at yours for a while? Just because, if Henry wasn't there you'd still be on the floor." She explained. I nodded in agreement. "O-okay" I croaked. She nodded and handed me a half full bottle of water. I almost snatched it off her and drank down all of the water. She laughed as I wiped my mouth.

Eventually, we went home. Emma carried me, as I had been asleep for three months. She laid me on the sofa, and Henry sat beside me. We ate lasagne. "You have no idea how much a person can fall in love, whilst the other doesn't notice." Emma said, slowly. I frowned. "You mean you fell in love with someone?" I ask, not hiding my disappointment. "Not just someone. A certain brunette." She laughed. I frowned. "The paramedic?" I asked. She shook her head. "You, stupid." She laughed tapping my nose. I shook my head. "No, no, no, no, you-you don't love me. You-you can't!" She shook her head. "But, I do." She insisted. I leaned closer to her. She inched closer and stroked my hair. I examined every small detail of her face. Her eyes shone, like diamonds. She smiled and kissed my cheek. "The world may change my whole life through but nothings gonna change my love for you." I sang to her. She smiled. "Is that our song?" She asked, I smiled. "Maybe."
