A bright light. Something pulling me towards it. It wants me. It needs me. But then I could hear Brooklyn and Mason yelling "mummy! Mummy!", soon after Luke saying softly "baby don't leave us"
Conflicted. It seems so peaceful, no more hurt, no more pain. But my life my loves are there, they need me.
I let myself fall towards the sounds of my children and my husband. It felt like a ton of bricks hit me. I was in this amount of pain that I just couldn't deal with. I could feel the tears Luke was shedding hit my hand. Slowly my eyes opened and I looked around. Moving a little. "Luke?" I said quietly
"Babe?" He said slowly while looking up at me "oh my god baby you're here" he said while putting his hands on my cheeks and leaning down to kissing my forehead.
"I thought I was dead. I thought you all had to be alone. I thought you were going to move on" I said softly and weakly. While my hand went up to his cheek, shakily.
"Oh god no. Baby. No. I love you so much. Don't ever do this to me again" he said quietly before leaning down and softly pressing his lips to mine.
"Where" I say quietly "where are Brooklyn and Mason?"
"Selena and Ashton have been keeping them. They" he stopped to laugh "they took them to a waterpark. I gotta show you the pictures and videos they sent. The kids are having a blast"
I smiled and closed my eyes "Luke tell me the truth. How's the baby?"
He sat down on the bed holding my hand "she's a fighter. She can't wait to meet her mummy though"
I let out a sigh of relief "she's okay?"
"She's okay"
"I wanna see her"
"You can. Let me get your doctor okay? Trust me I know enough that even if I said not yet you'd get up and go anyways"
I laughed "you're right. Also do you think we could get some food. Like some pizza or something? I'm hungry"
He busted out laughing "yes babe. We can get some food"
"Oh even better" I said laughing before sitting up a little "you wanna show me those pictures and videos now?"
"Oh yeah of course"
I smiled and tried to keep my eyes open long enough to watch the videos and look at the pictures. "I thought I was dead. You had a funeral"
"We didn't have a funeral?" He said confused
"You didn't?"
"No? You never died?"
"In my dream you had one. It was all so realistic" I sighed
"Shh it's okay. You're here with us now" he said leaning in to kiss my forehead "you're not going anywhere ever again"
"Can you get Brooklyn and Mason over here? I need to hold them"
"You need your rest babe" he said laughing softly "I'm gonna get your doctor and then we can get some food"
I nodded as his hands left me. I watched him walk out of the room and then laid back waiting.
After my doctor walked out of the room, shocked at how well I seemed to be doing, they brought me food. And boy did I eat. I was starving and really thirsty.
"Luke" I said quietly looking over at him
He nodded and held up a finger, signaling for me to wait a minute. He walked out and came back with a wheelchair. After being lifted from the bed and set into the wheelchair he giggled slightly "you think you'd feel heavier with how much bigger your-"
"Luke" I said quietly
"Right sorry"
He laid my favorite blanket over my lap and I closed my eyes taking deep breaths. Thankfully he could connect my IV pole to the wheel chair so I didn't have to hold it or worry about him holding it. We walked, well he walked I rolled, down the hallways and into and out of elevators before stopping outside two huge doors waiting for someone to open them. I assumed a nurse or doctor would but Luke went over and waved something in front of a pad and the doors opened right up. He pushed me through the long hallway until we got to the end.
A nurse was standing outside of the room she smiled at Luke "hey there came back to see your little princess?" Clearly not seeing me or just not caring. "The single dad thing is really hot"
"He's not a single dad" I hissed "but he is hot. Married. But hot."
Luke just chuckled "Kelly, this is my wife Abbey. Abbey this is Kelly. She's one of the nurses down here."
My eyes narrowed at her "Luke. The baby."
I felt his hand on my shoulder, squeezing it lightly. I nodded and closed my eyes as he opened the door and pushed me in. Once he shut the door behind us, thankful we had a private room, "she's never going to be our nurse again"
"You don't have anything to worry about"
"I've heard that before"
"Please do not start this shit right now. I have my wife back. Our daughter is okay and getting stronger. I am married to you. I do not want her. I want you. I have gone weeks being alone, sitting at your side or being down here to feed her" he said obviously getting irritated with me but I didn't care. He did say something that was right, he spent weeks alone.
"Can I hold her?" I said quietly. We always fight. But we're in love. Clearly we don't always fight or we wouldn't have three kids. I laughed quietly to myself and he just gave me a weird look.
He smiled down at her and reached in to lift her up "Now Alexis this is your mummy" he said before gently placing her in my arms
A smile came across my face "she's perfect Luke. She has your eyes. Your gorgeous eyes" I said running a hand down her cheek and then looking up at Luke "I love you"
"I love you" he said smiling "she has never really been this quiet before. She cried a lot the first two weeks. She's only comfortable with me. If anyone else tries to hold her she screams"
"She recognizes my voice" I said smiling down at her
I heard muffled talking in the hallway before the door opened and in came my two toddlers yelling "mummy!!!"
"Oh my gosh look at how big my two babies are"
This. This is my family. No being abandoned. No feeling destroyed. Just love. Three kids, a husband and a wife that all love each other unconditionally. This is what I waited for my entire life. Luke who goes above and beyond, I mean come on he got me Italian food for dinner. Brooklyn, who gave me my dream of having a daughter. Mason, who gave me every hope I had for a son that I wanted one day. They both made my dreams come true on the same day. Little Alexis, Luke finally let me name a baby Alexis. I love the name. She's perfect in every way, just like her brother and sister. My husband who is just perfect too. We are perfect for each other. And this all came from being Adopted by Jesy.
