Torn

Chapter 27

"Lydia wake up!"

"Luke if you don't go away right now."

"I want to make cookies and no one else wants to help me."

"What time is it?"

"2 in the afternoon." I picked up my phone an he was right.

"Oh shit!" I rushed to get out of bed and get in the shower.

"What's wrong?"

"I was supposed to go to lunch with Mali and her mum at 2:30."

"I'll text her and tell them you'll be late."

"Thanks babe and I promise I'll bake cookies with you when I get home."

I took a quick a shower and got dressed. I said bye to everyone and got in the car to leave.

I sat outside of the restaurant and did my makeup before I got out and went in.

"You look like you're gonna pop!" Calum's mum jumped from her seat and hugged me.

"Sorry I'm late."

"It's okay. You're here now and that's all that matters." I sat down and picked up the menu.

"So is Luke still here?"

"Yeah he told the managers that he wasn't leaving Sydney until the babies were born."

"That's so sweet."

"No, he just knows I'll kick his ass if he misses the birth of these babies."

-

"Lucas, I'm home!" I heard some noises upstairs and Luke came running down the stairs.

"Let's make some cookies!" He was jumping up and down in the kitchen while I got out the ingredients.

"Why don't you ever just buy cookies?"

"Because you make the best cookies." I started mixing all the ingredients together and he took out the pan to put them on.

"I make the best everything sweetheart."

"You sure do."

"You're so gross Luke!" He laughed and I backed away from him.

"Hey come back here."

"Nope you can mix these ingredients and I'm gonna go change." I walked up the stairs and into my room.

I changed out of my jeans into a pair of Luke's sweats and a big sweatshirt.

I went back downstairs and Luke was making a mess.

"This is why no one wants to bake with you." He turned to look at me and he had flour all over him.

"How does that happen Luke?"

"I was mixing and it got all over me."

"It looks like I'm gonna have four kids." I got a wet napkin and started wiping flour off of his face. I didn't see him reach and get some flour out of the bowl but next thing I know it's all over my face.

"Lucas!"

"Sorry." He shrugged his shoulders and smiled at me.

"You asshole!" I picked up the whole bowl of flour and dumped it on his head.

"No you didn't!"

"Oh yes I did."

"You're gonna pay-"

"Oww!"

"What's wrong?" I sat down on the floor and held onto my stomach.

"When I say this I want you to be calm and not to faint, okay?"

"Okay."

"I've been having contractions for the past hour and I need you to call my mum."

"Wait what? Why didn't-"

"Luke just call my mum!" He pulled out his phone and ran up the stairs.

"Where are you going?"

"To get your bag." He came back down the stairs with my bag and his car keys.

He helped me up off the floor and out the door. He put me in the backseat so I had room to stretch out.

"You know I told you to call my mum so she could drive us."

"I know. Has your water broken?"

"Not yet."

"Don't do it in my car."

"Don't tell me what to do."

-

My water had broken and we were siting in a hospital room just me and Luke. They were gonna wait a few more hours before they did the c-section so I was just waiting and having contractions.

"Can you get me something to eat Luke?"

"Yeah I'll be right back." Luke walked out of the room and my mum walked in.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine mum."

"Good. How far apart are the contractions?"

"10 minutes."
