CHAPTER 22

~ Brady House ~

�NOOOOOO!!!!� Hope cried as Patrick caught her before she hit the floor. �This can�t be happening�. Not now � I need him.� Her jaw fell open and screamed in pain.

�Patrick get her over to the couch right now.� Jenn yelled. �I�m calling an ambulance.

�AWWWWW� Hope continued to scream.

�Damn it I knew I should have called before.� Jenn stated annoyed that nobodies picked up yet.

�Hope is there anything I can do for you?� Patrick asked as her grasp tightened around his arm.

�Yes I need an ambulance right away. I think my cousin is going to into early labor��..�

�Patrick, where�s Bo�I need him�..BO. �.. BO� Hope yelled over and over again.

�Hope.� Bo yelled running through the door so fast he almost fell flat on his face. �Let go of my wife.� He screamed pushing Patrick back. �I�m here Fancy Face.� He stroked the back of her head, �I�m right here.�

Hope�s breathing become more shallow with each passing second. �Bo.�

�Don�t talk.� He replied looking up at Jenn. �Patrick get the car� I�m taking her to the hospital.�

�An ambulance is already on the way Bo.� Jenn screamed �So we all need to just calm down.�

Bo picked her up into his arms. �Patrick get the car, I�m not waiting for any ambulance.�

�Bo they�re better equipped for this.� Billie yelled trying to stop him from exiting the house.

�Billie�s right.� Jenn added

�Get out of my way Billie.� He yelled. �Lockhart either you�re driving or I am.�

Patrick just looked at both Jenn and Billie. �Fine I�ll drive.�

Hope whose sitting on Bo�s lap continues to scream in pain as Patrick races down the road way.

�Can�t you drive any faster Lunkhead.� Bo yelled

�He�s already going way to fast as it is.� Billie who is sitting next to Patrick replied. �Do you want to get her to the hospital in one piece or after the car flips over?�

Jenn who is sitting in the backset along with Bo and Hope yells. �I still think we should have waited for the ambulance to arrive.�

�Jenn please don�t second guess me right now.� Bo pleaded. �I�m sorry Fancy Face, I should have listened to you.� He kisses her forehead. �I should have never left you alone.�

�Hope!� Jenn yelled taking her hand. �Stay with us Hope.�

�Come on Fancy Face don�t give up on us now.� Bo cried as his wife passed out in his arms. �Oh God why is this happening?� He pulled her closer. �This is all my fault, if I would have been there for you none of this would be happening.� He placed his lips on the top of her head. �You�ve got to hang in there �� you just have to.

�Bo I�m��.�

�Don�t Billie.� Bo cried. �I can�t deal with you right now.�

About twenty minutes later, which felt like hours Bo, Hope, Jenn and Patrick all came running into the hospital.

�Lexie.� Bo hollered.

Lexie who was standing by the desk immediately turned around. �Oh nooo, somebody get me a gurney.� She runs over to them. �How long has she been unconscious?�

�She past out in the car on the way over here.� Jenn jumped in knowing Bo hadn�t heard a word she said. �Maybe ten minutes or so.�

�Find out who�s on call for OBGYN and get them down here STAT.� Lexie yelled to a nearby nurse.

�Coming through.� Another nurse yelled pushing a gurney down the hall.

Bo carefully laid her down.

�Bo you need to let go.� Lexie demanded. �We have to get her into a room and get her checked out.�

Bo who still has a hold of her hand refuses to let go. �No I�m going with her.�

Jenn walked over and calmly pulled him away. �You�ve got to let them help her. You�ll just be in the way�let the doctors do their job Bo.�

�Jenn I can�t lose her.� Bo cried as his knees buckled.

Patrick ran over and caught him just before he hit the floor. �Come on man sit down.�

�Get the hell off of me.� Bo yelled through his tears.

�What�s going on?� Shawn who looked like he just came out of a cubical of his own asked as he ran over. �Where�s mom dad?.. Where is she?�

�She�s in with the doctor Shawn.� Jenn replied. �We�ve rushed her here because we think she�s gone into labor.�

�Labor?� Shawn asked shaking his head. �No that can�t be she has at least two months to go.�

Lexie came walking back out and Bo ran over to her. �What�s happening? How is she?��

�The good news is she�s awake� the bad news is her water broke��. and she�s about 6 centimeters dilated.�

�No Lexie it�s to soon the baby can�t possibly survive.� Bo cried as his whole body shook.

�The doctors in with her now Bo and he has no other choice.� Lexie continued. �She has no other choice��. then to deliver this baby.

�I need to be in there with her.� Bo cried.

�Nurse.� Lexie stated grabbing a hold of a nurse. �Take Mr. Brady here down the hall and get him prepped to be with his wife.�

�Yes Doctor Carver.� She replied as she motioned for him to follow her.

�Lexie both her and the baby are going to be okay right.� Jenn cried after Bo left.

�I don�t know.� Lexie replied looking like she wanted to cry herself. �But I hope so.�

�I need to call Gram and Uncle Doug and Aunt Julie and �� Jenn cried.

Patrick walked up to her and embraced her.

Shawn couldn�t take it anymore and went running out of the hospital.

�Shawn.� Jenn called after him.

Patrick held her closer. �Don�t worry about him, he�ll be okay.�

A few moments later Bo stood just outside he�s wife door.

Lexie came walking up behind him. �I know it�s hard but you have to be strong� you have to pull yourself together for Hope.�

�I�d do anything for her Lex I just don�t know if I can do that�. I�ve never felt like this before� even after all the times I�ve lost her and gotten her back I�ve never felt this way.�

�Trust me.� She placed her head against his shoulder. �You�re going to walk into that room and you�re only concern is going to be for that woman in their and your child. You won�t have time to be scared because you�ll be too worried about them.�

�I hope you�re right.� He replied before he made his way into the room.

�Bo�� Bo is that you?� Hope cried.

He ran over and took her hand. �I�m right here Fancy Face and soon we�re going to be welcoming another Brady into this world.�

�It�s to soon Bo.�

He held her hand tighter. �We�re going to get through this� our son or daughter is going to get through this.�
