The hours that Lauren, Brynn and I spent in the hospital watching Kenzie were torturous. All we could do was simply sit and wait for news– and so far all we've heard is that she been put in an induced coma to stop her from feeling the pain while they take scans and X-rays. Apparently she'd been calling out for me in the ambulance, and she was delirious. The doctors were increasingly surprised when I mentioned she was pregnant– and immediately started doing longer and different tests.
"I can't wait here any more." Lauren complains out of the blue.
Brynn agrees. "Neither can I."
"Go get something from the cafeteria, and take a walk outside. Clear your heads." I say, slouching down in my uncomfortable seat.
"You sure that's okay?" Lauren asks, standing and ruffling my hair. She'd been lying across my lap, head in my chest.
"I'm sure. Go get some air kiddo." I smile softly.
"Thanks John." Brynn says. "You're a good guy."
Unsure how to reply to her comment, I simply nod and feel my cheeks warm. You can tell I don't get compliments very often.
About twenty minutes after they left, in which I stared at the ceiling and said nothing to no one, the door to Mackenzie's room opened and I was beckoned in by a kind looking nurse.
"Johnny?" She asks.
I nod my head, swallowing nervously and standing up. Suddenly, my legs felt like lead as I walked across the hall. Would she be mad?
"She's been asking for you."
I slip inside the room, and my eyes rest on Mackenzie in bed, giving me a watery smile. "Hi." She manages to croak out, and I almost run to her side.
"Hey." I grin, eyes filling with tears. Mackenzie grin turns a little sad, and I pull up a chair right next to her bed and clutch her hands.
"How are you? Are you feeling okay? We were all so worried!" I say in a rush.
"I'm fine... but I have good news and bad news." She manages to get out. "It depends on how your perspective is whether it's good or bad though."
Tears start to drip down her cheeks, and her grip on my hands becomes tighter.
"Whatever it is Kenzie, it's not going to make me love you less. In fact, you're probably trusting me with information that nobody knows yet, right?" I comfort her.
"Yes." She nods, taking a deep breath. "Okay so– god I didn't think it would be this hard to say."
I caress her cheek, wiping away a few stray tears. This seems to give her some comfort, and sadly, she starts talking again.
