Lost And Found

Part 23 (Check Up)

Blake's P.O.V.

I was so relieved and happy that they were both safe. But since Freya got here, she's been acting strange. I know what she went through must not be easy but it didn't feel like it was that. And it was mostly towards me. I know it's her first day back, so I'm not gonna bother her by asking what's wrong. But she's been in bed all day and she needs to eat something. I walk inside the room to try and wake her up gently...

"Freya?" I whisper. I caress her head.

"Go away, Marc." She says annoyed and giving me her back.

"Freya, it's me... Bla-"

"I said go away!" She turns to yell at my face. She gasps. "Blake... Oh my God, I'm sorry I... I thought you were..." She couldn't say his name.

"Do I remind you of him?"

"No. I just thought I never left, I'm sorry."

"It's okay... Um, my mom made some breakfast. You should come downstairs and eat something."

"Blake, I don't want to sound rude but I don't want to meet them. I'm not ready right now... I'm not even sure if I want anything to do with them." I get she's shaken up and exhausted, but she didn't have to be so blunt.

"What do you mean?"

"Look at us... What are we doing? We're saying we love each other and we don't know anything about either one. Hell, I don't even know how old you are."

"I'm-"

"Don't tell me your age because of what I just said... Just get me to the hospital, please."

"Are you okay?" I ask worried.

"Yes, I just need to see how she's doing. If she's out of the woods or not."

"What the hell are you talking about."

"What do you mean what am I talking about? About the umbi.... I never told you."

"Told me what?"

"Her umbilical cord is wrapped around her neck."

"Yeah, that's normal. It happened to Ford too."

"Her's was wrapped three times."

"What?!! Why did you tell me that?!!"

"I tried!! But you came back from your game and you said that you didn't feel like talking and-"

"What about when I gave you the freaking roses?!!"

"I forgot, I'm sorry! I remembered when you left and I was gonna tell you at dinner but then... then Marc came and-" Her eyes started to water.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry. Let's just get you to the doctor, come on."

She takes a quick shower and we leave for the gynecologist. When we get there I realized that this was the first time I was gonna see the baby. I was nervous but anxious to see her too.

"You okay?" I ask Freya, who kept on playing with her necklace.

"I'm scared."

"Me too... Listen, if the worst happens..." I take a deep breath dreading the thought. "You don't have to leave. I'd still like to see you."

"Are you kidding me? If she's dead I never want to see you again."

"Whoa, why?"

"I can't look at you and not think about her... It'd be too painful."

"Miss Adelson?" She stands up and walk to the nurse. I try to swallow the word she just told me and quickly follow her.

"It's nice to see you're safe, Freya."
