Looking for daddy (Casualty)

14

Chelsea groaned as she finished throwing up. She was sick of morning sickness. It was physically exhausting. “Mummy?” Ariel said as she knocked at the bathroom door. Chelsea sighed to herself as she stood up and flushed the toilet. She opened the door to see Ariel looking at her and holding the old teddy that Iain had gave her “what’s up?” Chelsea asked her as she looked to Chelsea “where daddy..he not here” Ariel said as she stood looking at Chelsea with her big brown eyes. “Mummy and daddy just need some time apart baby” Chelsea said as she nodded. Not understanding what it meant but let it go “daddy at door. I let him in” Ariel said as Chelsea looked to her and nodded “im sire you did” Chelsea said as she smiled to Ariel “go get dressed” Chelsea said as she walked down to where Iain was sitting in the living room. He looked to her and smiled.

She wrapped her dressing gown around her and smiled to him “hey” Iain said as she smiled to him “you look terrible” Iain said as she rolled her eyes at him “yeah..well my head is a mess” Chelsea said as Iain nodded. Things were awkward between them. They hadn’t taken since they had split and she hasn’t spoken to him since. She knew that they had to try for Ariel “what are you doing here?” she asked “i thought I’d come and take Ariel to nursery” he said as she sighed “okay” Chelsea said as Iain smiled at her “im her father I won’t let you cut me out again” Iain said as Chelsea glared “don’t you dare! Iain I would never do that to you. To her and you were to blame too. You pushed me away and you know I’m I messed up and should of told you about Ariel but don’t act like your perfect. I thought you were past this?” Chelsea asked as Ariel walked on. She looked to Iain and Chelsea and frowned “why you no love each other anymore” she asked with tears in her eyes. “we can’t keep doing this Iain” Chelsea said as Iain nodded “come on Ariel. We’ll be late” Iain said as Ariel went with him. Chelsea sighed to herself as they walked off. She hated it and felt as if she was going to loose everything and was scared of how he would react to learning she was pregnant with his baby again.

Chelsea walked into work and sighed as she saw Alicia hiding under reception. Chelsea looked to her and rolled her eyes “you really are pathetic” Chelsea said ”and your a slag. And your daughter will be the same” Alicia said smirked as Chelsea walked over to her and slapped her “don’t you dare mention my daughter” Chelsea said as she walked off. Madison looked to Chelsea and frowned she could tell that something was up. Madison followed Chelsea into the staffroom and looked to her and smiled “what’s up?” Madison asked as Chelsea looked to her “i don’t know if I can do this again mad. I can’t...I can’t be alone and he hates me and I can’t even look at him. How am I meant to tell him on having his baby. He hates me I thought he cheated and he hates me for it. I can’t have this baby” Chelsea said as she started to fry “Chelsea think a bit this..its not as easy as it sounds” Madison said as Chelsea looked to him “i have no choice I cant raise two kids on my own. He hates me and I hate it  I love him so much and I hate it” Chelsea sobbed as Madison sighed to herself.

Madison walked into the ambulance bay and saw Iain. She looked to him and glared “what is your problem?” she asked as he sighed “nothing” he said as she sighed “you and Chelsea..you need to sort it out you have a child together and its obvious you still love each other” Madison said ”its none of your business” Iain said as she rolled her eyes “she’s my best friend and your being a dick” is in slammed the back of the ambulance shut and turned to look at her ”she thought I cheated “she made a mistake Iain” “its not the first time” Iain said as she rolled her eyes “yeah. So what so have you and you need to make up now more than ever before she makes another one” Madison said as he frowned “what do you mean?” He asked as she sighed and look to him “Chelsea’s pregnant with your baby and she going to have an abortion” Madison said as Iain paled. He looked at her shocked.
