| CHAPTER 23 ~ DIMERA HIDEOUT ~ �Boss, boss they�re gone.� Bart yelled running into the room �What are you talking about Bart?� Tony asked annoyed. �Billie and Bo boss they�re gone.� �What do you mean gone?� Tony asked. �There�s no way they escaped that room.� Bart looks down at the floor. �I was on my way to see if they had awoken yet and I noticed the door was wide open.� He looks back at Tony. �I swear Boss I closed it once our men threw them in there.� Tony paced back and forth across the floor for several minutes which scared Bart more and more with every step. �Please don�t kill me sir.� Bart cried as he dropped to the floor. �Get off the floor Bart.� Tony stated while shaking his head. �I have no intention of killing you.� Tony pushed a button on the intercom. �Bring her to me.� He yelled. �Sir you don�t think, she��.� �I don�t know Bart. We made certain she knew who they were.� �But only through pictures and videos sir���.. Besides the room was dark, there�s no way she could tell who they were.� Annoyed. �Shut up Bart you�re giving me a headache.� �You wanted to see me Uncle Tony.� A young girl around 15 or 16 asked as she entered the room. �Yes please sweetheart come in.� Tony stated smiling. �Bart was just leaving.� �But sir.� �Goodbye Bart.� Tony stated in a way that Bart knew he needed to leave at once. �Come join me on the couch.� Tony said. �How was your day today?� �It was fine, thank you.� She replied as she sat next to him. �I finished reading the book you gave me today.� Tony laughed. �You read that already did you� well I�ll see to it that you get another one.� �Thank you Uncle Tony.� She quietly replied. Tony looked at her. �I was wondering if you were down in the basement at all today.� She looked up at him knowing that lying wouldn�t get her anywhere since the entire fortress which they lived in is filled with surveillance cameras. �Yes sir I was.� �And what were you doing down there?� Tony asked calmly. �I was just taking a walk.� She began twisting her fingers. �and I heard you and some other men talking.� She looked up at him. �I just wanted to know what was happening what you were all talking about�. I swear I wasn�t going to let them go Uncle Tony but he�s my father and his wife is pregnant and she needs him.� She began to cry. �My little brother needs him.� Her cry became even more intense. �I need him.. I shouldn�t have let him go and I�m sorry.� �Now now it�s alright.� Tony said as he embraced her. �You didn�t do anything I can�t undo.� He pushed her into an upright position and became very serious with her. �Now I told you I�d reunite you with your parents when the time is right and I plan on doing just that.� He wiped the tears that finally stopped following from her face. �But I can�t and won�t do that if you do anything like this again.� �I�m sorry Uncle Tony, I really am sorry.� �I know you are.� Tony firmly stated back as he got up and walked them both to the door. �Must I go back to my room.� She asked. �You need to go back to your room and think about what you�ve done.� He opened the door and she walked out. �Bart get in here.� He yelled �So Boss did she do it, did she do it Boss. Did she let Bo Brady and Billie Reed go?� �Oh Bart stop acting like a child we have work to do.� ~*~ ~ OUTSIDE SALEM HOSPITAL ~ Billie is on the phone crying. �No mother I can�t.� She begins to yell. �Well that�s kind of hard to do since his wife is giving birth to their little brat.� She notices Shawn sitting on a concrete wall. �Listen I have to go just get the next step of our plan into action. I�ve got to make sure Bo doesn�t listen to Hope. I have to make sure he believes Georgia is alive.� She hangs up the phone and walks over to Shawn. �Hey Shawn D you okay.� She asked as she placed her hand on his shoulder. �My name is Shawn, not Shawn D and I�m not a little kid anymore Billie so you can�t just pat me on the back and expect me to spill my guts.� �Fine.� She said annoyed by his attitude as she removed her hand. �I didn�t mean anything by it.� �Why don�t you just go away and leave me alone?� She noticed the bandages on his face. �Looks like you got into a fight and lost.� He looked right at her. �I didn�t lose you should see the other guy.� �Do you want to talk about it?� Shawn just laughed. �What�s so funny.� �You, you are Billie you�re so pathetic that you�re not even funny.� His laughter turned into disgust. �How can you stand here and try to be my friend when most likely what�s happening with my mother is all your fault� So what did you do to her anyway?�� Or was it my dad did you finally get him right where you wanted him.� He stands and gets her in face. �In your slutty bed right next to you.� She goes to slap him but he stops her. �I�d think twice about hitting me Billie.� He throws her hand back at her. �I just might hit you back.� ~*~ ~ HOPE�S HOSPITAL ROOM ~ It�s been several hours since Hope�s been admitted and she looks like she about to give up. �Hope you need to push on this one.� The doctor ordered. �Bo I can�t do this.� Hope yelled as the contraction really started to hit her. �Yes you can Fancy Face.� Bo yelled as he pushed her back up and held her just as tightly as she was holding him. �Come on push.� �Push Hope.� The doctor yelled Hope screamed so loud that Jenn and Patrick who were still standing outside the room heard her. �Stop pushing.� The doctor yelled. �I�ve got the head and I need to rotate the shoulders.� �Bo don�t let go.� Hope yelled. �You�re almost there Fancy Face. Just a few more seconds and you�ll be holding our child.� Bo cried as he pressed his lips on her head. �Okay Hope I need you to help me here.� The doctor said smiling. �I need you to slightly push and we�ll find out if it�s a boy or girl.� Bo pulled Hope closer to him as she pushed one last time. �It�s a girl.� The doctor yelled as he made the baby cry. �Is she okay? Can I hold her?� Hope cried �Doctor she isn�t breathing right.� The nurse who he handed her to replied. �Oh my god what�s wrong with her Bo?� Hope asked as she looked up at him. �Don�t worry Fancy Face she�s going to be okay.� He pulls her head back to his chest. �Remember she�s very small and her lungs probably aren�t developed enough.� Bo and Hope held each other tight as the nurse placed the baby in the incubator. �I want to hold her Bo.� Hope exhaustedly cried. The doctor walked over to them. �Congratulations it�s a girl and she�s weighed in at 5 lbs 2 ozs.� �What�s wrong with her doc?� Bo asked �She�s at least two months premature so her lungs aren�t fully developed and �.� �Is she going to be alright?� Hope cried. �The next 48 hours is going to be the hardest.� The doctor replied trying to calm her. �We�ve placed her on a machine that will help her breath.� �I thought she was breathing on her own.� Bo stated trying to hold back the tears.� �Yes she is.� The doctor said. �It�s just she�s not breathing as well as we would like. Her breathes are way to shallow even for a newborn.� �I want to see my baby.� Hope cried The nurse rolled the incubator over to Hope�s bedside. �She�s beautiful Mrs. Brady congratulations.� Hope placed her hands on top of the incubator. �Bo look at her. In spite of all those machines and tubes hooked up to her she�s prefect.� �She�s a Brady Hope just like you and she�s gonna make it.� |
