Flashback
"Layla?"
I look over and her eyes are closed, chest isn't moving... I was so enthralled with the birth of our son that I didn't hear the monitors going off. A nurse coaxes me it of the room as I watch medical staff surround her, trying to bring her back.
I can't watch.
I slink down the wall and hold my son close to my chest.
Why?
Just why?
Dr. Greise steps out of the room and sits down next to me, he doesn't say a word.
"She's gone isn't she?"
"I'm afraid she is..."
I haven't been the same since that day. I haven't actually looked directly at my sons face, because I'm afraid I'll just see her and break all over again.
I make sure he's bathed, fed, changed... I haven't bonded with him like I should have. I'm afraid that he'll just get stripped from me too.
I need to suck it up. Layla would have wanted the best for him, and I'm not doing my best.
I take a deep breath and bite the bullet.
My heart.
My heart just melted.
I feel a smile tug at the corners of my mouth. He looks just like her. "You sir, are the most handsome man on the planet." I coo.
a/n: keeping this first ch really short... lmk what you think.
Also there's something about this ch that had me wheezing, if you can figure it out I'll give you a s/o in the next ch.
I love you bubbies 💕
