Stef and Lena (MyLove)❤️

LENA POV

A blur. As I flutter my eyes open and blink several times all I see is a blur. Until finally a clear image appears of the bright buzzing lights in the ceiling, and immediately I sit up rapidly and press the buzzer for a nurse. My baby. Is she ok? I've only just woken up from my caesarean and I have no answers. Is my sweet precious baby alive and healthy? Does Stef know anything? Where are they? Everything is a mystery...for now.

I begin to weep in silence as tears travel down my cheeks as I begin to think the worst. No sign of a nurse yet and my thoughts are overpowering my faith.

"Lena!" I hear as Stef runs to me and throws her arms around me. "I've been worried sick, hows our baby?" She asks as I prop myself up higher and look her dead in the eyes with confusion and worry. However, clearly she takes it as a sign of worry.

"Tell me our baby is ok? Lena?" She says as she rests her hands on my shoulders and then brushes my damp cheek of tears.

"I...Stef I don't know." I say as my emotions get the better of me and break down right here, instantly Stef stands up and charges out the room commanding a nurse for information outside my room.

"This is wrong. My wife just had a caesarean and a nurse informs us about Lena being awake and healthy. But why have we heard nothing about our baby. I know our rights and you're not telling us anything. WHERE IS MY BABY?" I overhear as she raises her voice with anger and worry.

"I'm so sorry to hear that, please, don't worry. I will find out what I can and be with you in a second" she replies as she walks down the maternity hallway and enters the baby ward.

Stef walks back into my room and sits beside me in the bed as my mother sits at the bottom of my bed with my father on the other side beside Dana, and Frank and Sharon sit to my right in the hospital chairs beside my bed.

"How are you feeling Frank?" I ask as he raises his eyes to meet mine, I see emotions and worry within them and this is a side I've not seen of Frank, he's always been the strong one who can keep this all together.

"I'm terrified. I know I've been a grandfather before to Brandon, but I was a terrible one. He hated me for pushing him to choose the right choices at the start of his life and I shouldn't have been so hard on him Stef, and I'm sorry for that. But he did choose wrong by sticking with his father and I've never seen him since, but I'm proud of him for changing his life choices and becoming the young man he is today, becoming dedicated to law and emergency in college, he is just like you and I Stef. And now I have another chance to be the grandfather to this little princess the way I wasn't to Brandon; but I will change everything and I pray that she is ok, I don't know what I'd do if she wasn't. Anyway Lena, all I'm saying is I feel perfectly fine but I hope and pray she is ok, how are you feeling considering you've been gutted open by butchers with knives" he chuckles at his own joke that everyone rolls their eyes at the expected joke from Frank.

"I'm good, I couldn't care about any of the pain I'm in right now, the pain that hurts the most is in my heart at the unknown of my baby. What's taking so long?" I reply as he reaches for my hand and places his on top.

"They're doing everything they can. Well at least the nice nurses and midwifes are, the rest are just nobheads and I don't even know how they get a job like this in the first place, but your baby is with the best ones who is helping her with everything, she will be here very soon. I promise" he says.

"What if something was wrong? What if it was too late and she ran out of oxygen? What if she's not here and didn't make it?" I reply as I break down yet again and cry as Stef takes me inside her arms comforting me. "Our baby is a worrier, and she will be perfectly fine. Chin up and be strong"

At that moment Stef holds me tight, the nurse walks in the room with Lena's midwife.
