Ice Queen

Twenty-Two

Mitch's POV

"Mitch... come here..." Kirstie whispered. I looked over the baby's face and felt fear in the pit of my stomach. The eyes... how were we supposed to hide those? Do they make baby contacts? Probably not. "Everyone's going to want to see her... what do we do?"

"Here, give her to me." I said. I gently took Autumn from Kirstie's arms and put her in the crib that had been set up. "I'll go tell everyone that you're exhausted, so they should come to visit tomorrow."

I hurried into the waiting room, where everyone was sitting around. "Alright guys, we have a healthy girl. Her name is Autumn Renee Grassi. But Kirstie's exhausted, so y'all have to come back tomorrow."

"Alright. Hey man, good luck." Scott said. He led the others out of the hospital. I went back into Kirstie's hospital room and saw Kirstie standing over the baby's crib.

"Kirst, you're not supposed to be-" that's when I saw Heat. "What the fuck do you want?" I growled.

"I've been sent here to kill the child."

"Get the fuck away from my baby," Kirstie ordered.

"Move." Heat said. I moved to Kirstie's side.

"Fuck off, Heat." I said.

"Move!"

"No... don't touch her!" Kirstie whimpered. She had tears rolling down her cheeks, and she looked terrified.

"Ice, Flame-"

"I said fuck off, you whiny little bitch!" I had reached my breaking point. "Quit complaining and get away from us! Touch my family and I will kill you!" 

"You can't!"

"Maybe not. But you will have to murder me before you get anywhere near them."

"It is bad enough you two are in 'love'. The child must die before she causes a stir! Give her to me!" 

"No!" Kirstie screamed. This must've attracted the attention of some of the nurses, because they ran into the room.

"Do you know this man?" One of them asked me. I shook my head, trying to look panicked. Which wasn't hard. "Sir, leave." The nurse ordered. She ushered Heat out of the room. 

"You'll regret this!" He yelled. One of the other nurses was trying to calm Kirstie down. I pulled her into a hug, resting my chin on her head. She sobbed hysterically into my chest.

"Shhh... I'm here... nothing's going to happen... you're safe. Autumn's safe. Don't worry." I whispered.

"He was going to kill her." She mumbled into my chest. "He was g-going to burn her... and make her into a trophy..."

"I won't let that happen." I said, helping Kirstie back into bed. She was still crying. The nurse hooked her up to a machine which monitored her heart rate, and said that they would be keeping an eye on us from here on out. Then she left. 

"I want... I want my baby..." Kirstie said. I hurried over and grabbed Autumn, bringing her to Kirstie immediately. "Hi baby girl. You're safe now. Mommy's going to keep you safe, okay?" She whispered. Autumn made a gurgling sound and Kirstie smiled. "Yeah... you're going to be safe and sound... right here with mommy and daddy..."
