Hate, Depression and Nathan Sykes.

Chapter 38

LUCY'S P.O.V

The ambulance showed up and quickly ran into the house pulling along a stretcher. Jay was being so strong. He sat by her the whole time waiting for the ambulance. Telling her it was going to be ok, even though she was unconscious.

The paramedics carefully lifted her onto the stretcher.

"Is she and the baby going to be ok?"

The one paramedic looked at Lydia and examined her head while the other made sure she was secure on the bed. "Her, yes. But the baby, I don't know."

He took a deep breath and looked down. He broke.

I ran up to him and put my hand over his shoulder. "Jay, come on. They baby's going to be ok. Go with her, stick by her. Look after her. Me and Nath will be right behind you."

He nodded. He kissed me on the cheek and followed the paramedics out of the house carefully taking Lydia on the stretcher.

A few moments later and the sirens were on and we could hear them pull off. I looked towards Nath and his eyes were really red and he had his hand over his mouth.

I walked up to him and wrapped my arms around his neck. Not caring of what happened earlier that day and me walking off. He held me tight. "It's going to be ok Nathan." He nodded and continued to hold me tight. "What happened?" I asked him, still hugging him.

"Um, we were talking on top of the stairs. And um, she went to walk down stairs and she uh- slipped"

"Oh my god. Ok, we better go. Come on."

Nathan grabbed Jays keys and we jumped in he car.

The drive to the hospital was silent and I felt as if there was some sort of tension. I didn't know why.

"Nath, I'm sorry for earlier." I apologised while looking down at my legs.

"Me too, I didn't mean to raise my voice."

"And I'm sorry I didn't trust you. You're going through a lot of pressure lately and it wasn't fair me having a go at you."

"It's ok." He told me, taking his hand off the clutch and placing it on my hand. I looked up at him and smiled. "I love you." He told me.

"I love you too."

We arrived at the hospital, and we quickly ran in up to the reception. "Hey, we need to know where Lydia Mathers is please?"

"Um, give us a moment. Would you like to take a seat."

"No, we need to know now." Nathan told her.

"Be patient sir."

"No, my best friends partner is heavily pregnant and, um- fell down the stairs and I'm not just going to sit here."

"Nathan? Lucy? Down here." We heard Jay called from down the far end of the corridor. Nathan stormed off and i quickly thanked the receptionist and ran off.

"Jay, is she ok?" I asked him.

"I don't know. She's in there and I don't know what they're doing, they won't tell me anything. I'm so scared."

"She'll be fine." I smiled.

We sat down, and waited.

*************************

"Mr McGuiness?"

"Yeah?" Jay asked as he slowly got up.

"Congratulations. You're a dad to a healthy baby boy."

A sigh of relief let out of Jays lips. "Is he ok?"

"He's perfectly fine. He's a little under weight at 4 pounds 11. But he's healthy and doing great"

"Oh my god" he cried, tears falling down his face as his hands covered his nose and mouth."

I butted in. "And Lydia?"

The nurse looked at me. "Um- well, only time will tell."

"What? Is she ok?"

"Yes, she's fine. But we think she may have a little brain damage. It's only around a 15% chance she does. But we just thought we'd let you know" she smiled. "Would you like to meet your son?" She asked, looking towards Jay. He looked towards us with a very scared but excited look on his face.

"Yes please."

Jay followed the nurse.

"Why are you being so quiet?" I asked Nathan.

"Just relieved"

I put my head on his chest and rested my eyes.

*******************

I woke up to Jay shaking me and Nathan. We must have fell asleep.

"Lucy. It's Lydia. She's awake and she's fine." He smiled.

"Really?" I asked with a crack in my voice as I felt like crying of happiness.

"Come on" I got up and looked towards Nath.

"You coming?" He nodded.

We all walked in and saw Lydia holding the new little baby boy.

"Lydia? Are you ok?" I asked her.

"I'm fine." She giggled. "A little achy here and there but I'm so happy. Do you want a hold?" She asked me.

I felt my face light up. "Yes please" I nodded. I carefully and slowly took the new baby into my arms and cradled him. He was gorgeous.

"Jay? Will you go get me a drink please?" Lydia asked jay. He nodded and walked out.

Lydia looked towards Nathan. She glared at him. He looked back with a sadness in his eyes.

"Are you going to tell her, or am I?" She asked him, very harshly.

"Tell me what?" I asked. "Nath? Lydia?"

"Nathan.." Lydia started.

"Nathan what?"

"He slept with someone else."
