Wait, what?!? Ray thought, his eyes snapping to Amelia and back to Oliver. “What do you mean?” His voice cracked, causing him to swallow in order to clear things up. The heart rate monitor began beeping a little bit faster as Ray’s heartbeat rose. “Wait, don’t answer that. I want to hear it from her.” His eyes dropped from Oliver, and he found himself looking at his bruised & battered arms. How could he let this happen when there was someone at home waiting for him to come home safe?
Oliver knew he had to wake up Amelia for this, although she needed the rest. Pulling on her softly, Oliver smiled. “Mia, Ray’s awake.” He told her.
Getting up, Amelia rubbed her eyes before getting off that bed. “Hey.” She smiled, relieved it had went well.
“I also woke you because I want you to tell him.” Oliver stated. Amelia nodded, taking Ray’s hand, her cheeks turning red. “I… we.. I’m pregnant.” She smiled, caressing her stomach. “It’s yours.”
Ray tilted his head to look at Amelia. “Hey you,” he whispered, intertwining his fingers with hers. He looked at their hands, and hers looked so small in his, yet at the same time it was as if two pieces of the same puzzle – they fit perfectly together.
A smile spread across his face, and his eyes moved from Amelia’s face down to her abdomen. “Wha- That’s amazing,” he sighed, dropping her hand. He began to shift his weight in order to move over and make some room for Amelia to climb in and lay close to him. He looked at Oliver with a pained look on his face.
“Before you start, I don’t need help, Oliver. I’ll keep still in a second. I’ll follow the doctor’s orders in a second,” Ray patted the bed before looking up at Amelia with a smile.
