"Jay!" Evie yelled, pulling Doug along as she arrived at the royal ward that Mal was in a month and a half ago.
"Woah! Slow down!" Doug said, pulling her gently to a halt. He wasnt out of breath, but he didnt want Evie to run and hurt herself.
Once Doug and Evie were seated down, Carlos and Jane burst in.
Jay looked at the group and waved.
"Lonnie's 3cm dilated. Im wanted in there, unlike Ben was. You can see her, yea, she's just lying on the bed, watching a movie. Im just coming out to get drinks." He said automatically.
"Okay." Evie said as Jane and Carlos took their seats. They would visit Lonnie when Jay was back.
Soon after, Mal and Ben rushed in, with a sleeping Ariana and Adrian in tow.
"Sorry we're late, Ari was crying and Ian was hungry." Mal apologised, as Ben nodded.
"Its fine." Jay shrugged, having returned from the canteen with a water chestnut drink for Lonnie and a coke for himself.
"Wanna go see Lonnie?" Jay asked and the group immediately stood up.
"Sure."
"Yea."
"Okay."
"Great!"
"Yup!"
"Duh."
Came from the group as Jay led them in. There, sat Lonnie in a hospital gown, watching Mulan. After what she went through, they got her to recount the whole story and they did a cartoon movie version of it.
At the sight of her friends, Lonnie smiled.
"Hi guys." She greeted as the rest returned a greeting.
"Hows the baby?" Jane asked.
"Oh great. He's doing swell. Just a little slow at first but now he's fast. Jay and i cant wait to meet him."
Jay nodded.
After a few hours, Li Shang, Mulan and Lonnie's brother, who was heir to Li Shang's throne and the reason why Jay and Lonnie could lead normal lives and live near their friends, arrived at the hospital when Lonnie was about 8cm dilated. What? Their imperial palace was a few hours away.
"Sorry we're late, darling." Mulan greeted in Chinese before she greeted the others in english again. Li Shang followed suit.
Soon after, the group, with the exception of Mulan and Jay, got ushered out of the room while Lonnie got ready.
