"Jack Morrison, you are not leaving this base!" I shouted at my husband as we talked.
"Gabe, Don't worry. I'll come back," I frowned and held jack's hand. I didn't know why, but I had a bad feeling about him leaving. I couldn't go with him due to being 8 months pregnant. Jack looked at me and frowned.
"Gabriel, I'll be fine. You'll be fine. Our baby will be ok. Ok?" I frowned and nodded slowly. He left and went with the rest of the group of people who were leaving. Jesse, a guy I'd trained, was staying back with me. He walked up to me and frowned.
"You ok boss?" I looked at him. He had a look of worry in his eyes.
"I'm fine Jesse, just got a bad feeling about Jack leaving," Jesse nodded at me as we started to walk down the hall. The rest of the day the base was silent.
Jack and his people were supposed to be god four days. When they didn't return they sent people to search. A group of people came back with faces of sadness. One filled Jesse in and Jesse walked over to me.
"Gabe, the looked everywhere until they found him. Now he's in the infirmary, but he isn't good. You should go see him," I nodded slowly as Jesse led me to jack's room. Once I saw him my heart sank. I walked to his bed side.
"Jack," I grabbed his hand and held it close to my chest.
"G-Gabe.....I-I-I'm Sorry" jack looked at me and frowned. He took the hand I was holding and wiped the few tears that had fallen. He then took his hand and placed it on my stomach.
"Jack, it's ok. The important thing is your here..... please stay" jack nodded and smiled weakly at me. I felt kicks from our son where his hand was. I smiled softly and looked at Jack.
"Even he wants you to stay," jack smiled at me and groaned as he shifted. Sat in a chair beside his bed and watched him. We held hands as the doctor came in and checked over jack.
For two weeks Jack had to be in the infirmary. After that he was well enough to go home. Since I had about a week before I was due all we did was stay in our apartment and watched movies. Today though. It was different. I sat on the couch in quite a bit of pain.
"Gabe, what do you want to do other than watch a movie?" He looked up at me. I shook my head and frowned as pain shot up from my back.
"Gabe?" Jack stood up and sat beside me. He held my hand as I gripped it.
"Contractions?" I nodded at jack. He frowned and held my hand. He and I both knew that the doctors couldn't do anything until my water had broken. So we sat there on the couch. The contractions got closer and closer until they were on top of each other. When my water finally broke jack helped me to the infirmary. Once there I was led to a room where I changed into a gown and got into bed. Every contraction that ripped through my body left me weaker and weaker. I yelled out in pain as Jack grabbed my hand.
"It's ok," I squeezed his hand as the doctor rushed in with nurses. The doctor checked something and shook his head.
"Prep him" I frowned and looked at Jack. Jack looked at the doctor and frowned.
"What do you mean prep him?"
"He needs to have the baby surgically removed. He can't deliver the baby. Now. If you'd like your husband and your child to live. We need to work," Jack's face went pale and he nodded. The doctor handed jack some scrubs and told his to put them on over his clothes. I was given medication and rolled to another room. Jack caught up and I grabbed his hand. They set everything up and started. They set up a sheet so I couldn't see what they were doing. I watched Jack and frowned. He kept whispering in my ear. I cussed a couple of times. It all stopped when I heard a scream and the doctor lifted the baby up over the sheet. I looked at the baby and smiled weakly. The doctors cleaned him up and cleaned me up. After that we were racked to our main room and I got to hold my baby.
"Jackson's here babe" I looked at Jack. I smiled and nodded. Jackson was smaller than I thought he would be. He had my skin tone and my hair. When he opened his eyes he had dark blue eyes. It made me smile.
"He's perfect"
