Behind The Marriage

What's Going On? - Part 32

Harry paced around the waiting room as the doctors were running tests on you. The entire afternoon played over in his head as he tried to figure out what happened. You seemed well, in good spirits, and like you were enjoying the shower. Yet for some reason, you had dropped to the ground and lost consciousness. He was trying his best to keep his emotions in check, but thought of possibly losing you and one or both babies, was making him a wreck.

"Harry, sweetheart, why don't you come sit down for a bit," Anne said softly.

You had arrived at the hospital hours ago and they still didn't know anything.

"I can't," he sighed.

"Well, you can't keep walking back and forth either," she said. "Neither of those things are coming to make the doctor's give us news any faster."

Knowing she was right, he walked over and sat next to her. With his head in his hands, he sniffled and wiped a few rouge tears away from his face.

"Hey," she said rubbing his back. "I know this is a scary situation, but don't bring those bad thoughts into your mind until we know what's going."

"I can't help it," he sniffled. "Seeing her laying on the ground, un alert... Mum, that's the scariest thing I've ever seen."

"I know," she whispered. "But the doctor's are going to do everything to find out what's wrong."

"I can't lose her," he whispered. "Or our babies."

Seeing her son upset, brought tears to her eyes. She tried to be strong for him, but being him so worried broke her heart. She wrapped her arms around him as he cried. Gemma was sitting a few seats down and she wasn't handling the situation well either. Your parents sipped coffee as they sat to theirselves worrying about their daughter.

Another hour had passed when a doctor finally emerged. Harry shot up from his chair and quickly closed the remaining distance between them.

"Y/N Styles' family?" He asked.

"I'm her husband," Harry answered.

"I want to start off saying that she is stable and alert now," he said. "Both her and the babies are okay."

Harry signed a bit of relief. "What was wrong? What happened?"

"Her blood pressure dropped significally," he stated. "We ran tests, but we are unsure of why her blood pressure became so low. Most pregnant women suffer from high blood pressure, but it isn't uncommon to suffer from low blood pressure."

"Okay, so what does this mean? Can this happen again?" Harry asked.

"She will need to be put on bedrest for the remainder of her pregnancy along with some changes to help keep her blood pressure stabilized. We don't want to risk it becoming high either. And yes this could happen again," he said. "This could just be a one time thing given certain circumstances from the day or last few days, but without knowing a cause it's hard to be certain."

"And you said the babies are doing well, right?" Harry asked. "And this would cause any issues with them?"

"They are perfectly healthy," he smiled. "But I will say because of Y/N now becoming a high risk pregnancy, we will look to induce her after she hits 38 weeks."

"Is that safe for them?" Harry asked concerned.

"Yes, most of the time twins are born before 40 weeks anyway, but we want to keep them inside of Mum for as long as we can, but also not too long to where we risk this happening again," he said. "Of course, the inducing is completely up to you and Y/N."

Harry nodded, "When I can see her?"

"Now," he smiled. "I'll have a nurse come and take you back."

"Thank you," Harry whispered.

About ten minutes later, a nurse came to the waiting room to retrieve Harry. He was a bundle of nerves as he walked down the long, cool, hallway towards your room. The doctor said you were fine. He said the babies were fine. but it was still hard to get the sight of you laying on the ground out of his mind. You had dropped your glass and a small plate of food that scattered around you.

You were completely motionless and while he knew that wasn't you anymore, he was scared to walk into that room and see you like that again. When he made to your room, he pushed the door-handle in, opening it and walked inside. You were sitting up, hands are your belly, in a hospital gown as you watched TV. Well, you were mostly staring at the tv because you didn't have anything else to be doing currently.

Hearing the door opening, you quickly turned your gaze toward it, thinking it was more nurses. However, when you saw it was Harry, you opened your arms, tears springing to your eyes.

"Y/N," he whispered rushing to your side. "I was so fucking scared."

"I'm sorry," you sniffled. "I don't know what happened."

"Hey, hey," he said wiping your eyes. "It's not your fault, but you're okay, right. You feel better?"

"I feel tired and a little anxious, but the doctor said that's normal," you sniffled. "When I woke up and saw I was in the hospital, I thought something happened to the babies."

"They're fine," he whispered. "The doctor said they're completely and utterly healthy."

You sniffled, nodding taking his hands in yours.

"I'm so happy you three are okay," he said. "I don't know what I would have done if something happened."

"I know," you whispered.

"Everyone's here," he said, after a while. "Your parents, mine, Gemma..."

"I don't want to be rude, but I rather just see you," you whispered. "I don't have the energy to see everyone right now."

He nodded, "I'll let them know and tell them they can go home and get some rest in a few minutes."

"Will you lay with you?" You asked.

"You know you never ask," he smiled adjusting himself so he was laying next to you, with his arms wrapped around you.

"How am I ever going to make it on strict bedrest?" you sighed.

"It's only for a few more weeks," he said. "And it's for you and babies. It'll be hard, but worth it."

"Just gotta keep reminding myself that," you nodded.

He kissed your forehead.

"I have something to tell you," you told him.

"What is it?" He asked.

"I sort of saw the sex of our babies during one of the tests," you said.

"You did?" He smiled.

You nodded, "I can tell you if you want or not tell you."

"No, I want to know," he smiled.

"Well, we're having...." you said. "A boy and a girl."

"Really?" He smiled, his eyes tearing up yet again.

"Baby A is a girl and Baby B is a boy," you smiled.

"Wow," he whispered with a laugh, placing his hands on your belly.

You smiled placing your hand on his before snuggling up against him, closing your eyes, and drifting off to sleep.
