Two Worlds Collide

Chapter 26

Maya POV

Lucas and I had Riley meet us at the hospital so that she could take Jordan while Lily got check out. I was total mess over my little girls arm, not knowing just how badly injured it was.  Lucas and I decided we'd get in touch with Riley to have her meet us at the Hospital to get Jordan. She left when we did and we had perfect timing because she was already there when we got there. Lucas took Jordan's booster seat out of the car and put into Riley's.  After getting Jordan strapped in he walked back over to us. 

"He's ready. Thank you so much Riley for taking him." Lucas replied. 

"It's no problem." she replied. 

"Thanks, Riles" I said as I gave her a hug. 

Riley kneeled down to Lily who was holding her arm "Listen Lilybug you are going to be just fine okay? If you get a pretty cast on your make sure you let me and Uncle Farkle sign it." 

Lily nodded "I will Aunt Riley." 

Riley turned to look at me and Lucas "Text me peaches and Lucas take good care of my girl. I know she's probably a mess right now, and watch out for Lily too."

"I will Riley." Lucas replied. 

"I'll text you as soon as I know anything." I replied. 

Riley started to walk away so Lucas picked up Lily and carried her into the hospital for me. I checked in at the window and gave them all of Lily's info and made sure they still had the correct insurance. I turned around and smiled as I saw Lily sitting on Lucas's lap as she laid her head against his chest.  Once checked in I walked over and sat down beside them. A few minutes later a brown haired young nurse came out to get us. She took us back into the room and we told her what had happened. At about that time Caleb texted me that he was hear so I left Lucas in the room with Lily while I went to get him. 

"Hey." I said as I walked up to him. 

He walked up to me as soon as he saw me "Hey is she okay?" he asked and then gave me a hug because he could clearly see I was upset. 

"Yeah she's fine. I think she may have broken her arm. Lucas is back there with her." I said as we walked back to where Lily was. 

We walked into the room and Lily's eyes lit up the moment she saw her Dad. "Daddy!" she smiled and he walked over to her. 

"Hey Princess. Mommy told me you hurt your arm." he said as he sat down beside her. 

"I got hurt ice skating." she replied. 

"Caleb this is my boyfriend Lucas." I replied as introduced the two. 

Lucas stuck his hand out "Nice to meet you." he replied. 

"Nice to meet you as well. Lily has told me a lot about you." he said with a smile as he shook Lucas hand. "You're Jordan's dad right?" 

"Yes, I am." Lucas replied. 

About 30 minutes later the nurse came back to take Lily to get her arm X-Rayed. Caleb told me to stay back that he'd go with her and I let him because I honestly needed to breathe and I also think Caleb knew that. As soon as Lily was wheeled out of the room in the wheel chair I walked over to the bed she was on and sat down on it. I could feel my anxiety speeding up and everything just hit me at once. 

"What if it was broken so bad that she needs surgery? What if it was broken so bad that it effects her daily life or keeps her from doing sports when she got older." My mind was going and I couldn't stop it. I didn't even realize I was talking out loud. 

"Maya..." Lucas said and I could hear him but I was to lost in the attack I was having. 

Lucas took my hands away from face and tilted my chin up making me look at him. He placed his lips on mine and I have to say that him kissing me did the trick. I felt myself began to calm down almost immediately from the panic attack I was having. He pulled a way and looked at me. 

"Breathe...."he said and finally I looked at up him. "Lily is going to be okay." 

"What if she can't do all of that Lucas. It could ruin everything." I cried. 

"Okay first of all I don't think it's that's bad. You saw her she has been fine. Kids get banged up when they are doing fun things. I broke my leg skiing once." he said as he wiped the tears away. "Accident happens and that's not say that the little fucker who ran into her isn't at fault because he is but at the same time stuff like this happens .It's a part of growing up." 

I wrapped my arms around him and pulled him closer to me. He hugged me and nuzzled my face into his chest as he stood in front of me. "You're right." I sniffled. 

"I know I am. Get yourself together before she comes back in here. You don't want her seeing you like this." he replied. 

I lifted my head up off him and looked at him. I pulled his face to my and kissed him softly. "I love you." I replied. 

"I love you too, Maya." he said as he brushed his thumb along my cheek. 

The nurse brought Lily back about 20 minutes later and it was another 45 minutes before the doctor finally came in. Sure enough Lily had broken her arm and sure enough Lucas was right when he said she'd be fine. It took them about an hour or so to cast her up. She picked out a light pink cast and couldn't wait for everyone to sign it. The doctor also gave her some children's medicine to help with any pain she might have. He also said that she should probably stay out of school for a couple days and to get her a follow up appointment with her pediatrician. Lucas, Caleb, and I left. He said he'd take off a couple days this week to keep Lily and I thanked him. After that the three of us went to get Jordan. He was so happy to see that Lily was okay. Of course Uncle Farkle and Aunt Riley had to sign her cast for her. After we got home I helped Lily get into her pajamas and then I cooked us all something for dinner.  When it was bed time Lily was a little sore so I gave her some medicine then laid in bed with her and Jordan until they fell asleep. After this stressful day I couldn't wait to just be in Lucas arms. I went into my room and changed into some PJs then went out to join Lucas in the living room. 

"You okay now?" he said to me as  I sat down beside him. 

"Yes I'm fine now. Thank you for everything today." I replied to him. 

"Anytime." he said as he wrapped his arm around me. 

"You want to come snuggle in bed with me. It's been along day and I just want to snuggle with you." I said as i looked up at him. 

"If that's what you want lets go." he replied. 

He stood up and I jumped onto his back. He carried me piggy back to my bedroom then threw me onto the bed. I crawled under the covers and when he got into bed with me I coddled into him. Our cuddling only lasted for about 5 minutes because I ended up falling asleep. Looks like Lucas put me to sleep like I did Lily. He's truly a keeper.
