Chapter 75: Recovery and Reassurance

He climbed onto the bed carefully and wrapped his arms around me, trying not to move me. "None of this is your fault; you didn’t kill the baby, Angel. It’s just one of those things. You know I’m a firm believer of everything happens for a reason; we weren’t supposed to have this baby. You’re not to blame. If anything, this is my fault, if I hadn’t told him to get off of you he might not have hit you," he said quietly. I shook my head and buried my face in his chest, clinging to him tightly, this wasn’t his fault, none of it was his fault. "I love you," he whispered over and over in my ear, until the doctor came back and took me off to the operating room.

Liam walked along the side of my bed until I got to the room and he wasn’t allowed any further. He kissed me softly, his eyes bright with sadness and pain. "I’ll be right here when you wake up. I love you more than anything," he promised.

I smiled at his words. He still loved me, he still wanted me. I just hoped that he wasn’t just saying these things because I was upset and in pain. I prayed that he really did still want me after what I’d done.

As soon as she was through the doors and out of my sight, I slumped onto the floor and put my head in my hands. My whole body was hurting. She was in so much pain and there was nothing I could do. We’d lost the baby, and for some idiotic reason she was blaming herself for that as**ole doing this. I squeezed my hands into fists, pressing them against my eyes, trying not to think about him. The more I thought about him, the more I wanted to get the hell out of here and rip his head off - but I couldn’t do that. I needed to be here for my girl when she woke up. She didn’t need anything else to worry about right now.

I believed what I had told her earlier. If we were meant to have this baby, then we would have. She wouldn’t have lost it if it was meant to be. I’d always believed that everything happens for a reason - but that didn’t stop it hurting like hell to lose this baby. A perfect little baby that I imagined would be just like its momma in every way. I closed my eyes and rested my head back against the wall, waiting for her to come out. I barely even noticed when Jake came and sat next to me, wrapping his arm around my shoulder.

"She lost it," I mumbled.

Jake’s arm tightened around my shoulders. "Yeah. She’ll be OK, Liam," he assured, squeezing my shoulder.

I was actually surprised that he wasn’t kicking the crap out of me for getting his little sister pregnant, but to be honest, I just couldn’t care less. He couldn’t cause me any more pain than I already felt, the only one that could hurt me more than this was my Angel. She was the only one that had the power to kill me.

After about forty minutes they wheeled her out of surgery, she was still asleep from the anaesthetic. I jumped up quickly, looking her over. "Is she alright?" I asked desperately, skipping along beside the bed as they pushed her down the hallway.

"Everything went well. We removed everything. She’ll be fine. She should start to come around from the anaesthetic within the hour. We’ll keep her in overnight, and let her go tomorrow afternoon sometime. She’ll have to take it easy for a day or so," the doctor confirmed. I nodded and followed her into her room, sitting beside her bed, holding her hand tightly. Jake and I sat silently next to her bed, there was nothing to say, nothing could make this any better.

After about half an hour, she moved her hand in mine. I jumped up quickly as her eyes fluttered. This was the second time in three days that she’d woken up to me like this and I just prayed to God that she never did it again, because I couldn’t take any more of this.

"Hey, Angel," I murmured, stroking her face lightly, it was sore looking and was already starting to bruise where he’d slapped her.

She turned her head in my direction but didn’t open her eyes. "You stayed," she breathed, a small smile playing on the corner of her mouth.

She honestly thought I would leave her?

"Of course I stayed." I kissed her gently. She whimpered and gripped the front of my shirt weakly as she kissed me back.

"I love you so much, Liam," she whispered.

"I know you do, but I still love you more," I countered. No one ever loved anyone as much as I loved her.

Jake cleared his throat so I pulled away, still holding her hand tightly. He leant over and hugged her. "I’m sorry you lost your baby, Ambs," he said, looking like he genuinely meant it.

She nodded and smiled sadly. "Yeah, me too," she replied, her voice breaking as she spoke.

"I’m gonna go and call Ruby and Johnny. I’ll call your parents too, Liam," Jake said, kissing her cheek before disappearing out of the curtain, giving us some privacy.

"Will you lay with me?" she croaked.

I nodded and climbed carefully onto the bed with her. "Are you in pain or anything?" I asked as I wrapped my arm over her gently.

"Not really. It’s sore, but nowhere near as bad as it was." She winced as she moved on the bed.

I closed my eyes and buried my face in the side of her neck. "You need to stop scaring the shit out of me. You’re seriously going to give me a heart attack soon," I teased, trying to lighten the mood.

She laughed humourlessly. "I’m so tired, Liam." She turned her head, nuzzling against mine.

"Go to sleep then, Angel," I cooed, pulling the sheets up higher around her to keep her warm.
