We'll Make It- Chicago PD Burzek Fanfic

Chapter 4-Baby Girl

It had been a month since Adam was shot and the Ruzek's were going in for a doctor's appointment to see how the baby was doing.

As they waited for the doctor, Adam played with the doctor's chair, making it go up and down, up and down.

"Adam, what're you doing?" Kim finally asked.

"I'm bored and this is something I can do with one arm." Adam said, pointing to the sling his other arm was still in.

"Come on, stop. The doctor's going to be in any second now." Kim said as the door opened.

Adam jumped out of the chair and played it cool and Kim simply laughed at him.

"Okay, Mrs. Ruzek, you're 18 weeks now, correct?" The doctor asked, checking her files.

"Yes." Kim answered, excited to hear the baby's heartbeat and possibly learn the gender.

"Okay, well, let's get started."

The doctor began the sonogram when suddenly she grew concerned.

"What's wrong?" Adam asked, seeing it on her face.

"I'm not finding a heartbeat." The doctor said solemnly.

"Hey, how'd the appointment go?" Erin asked the second she answered her phone after she saw Kim was calling.

"No, um, the baby's gone." Kim spilled through sobs.

"What? Oh my god, Kim! I'm so sorry! What happened?"

"We uh, went in for our appointment and there was, there was no heartbeat. I miscarried. It was a girl, Erin. It was a baby girl!" Kim sobbed into the phone. "The doctor said any other natural pregnancies I have will most likely end like this."

"Oh Kim, I'm so sorry."

"Hey, Adam." Al answered his phone.

"Al, the uh, the baby didn't... the baby died. My baby girl, she's uh, she's gone, Al."

"Adam, I'm sorry."

"Uh, yeah. The doctor told us that any other natural pregnancies would probably end the same way for Kim and I so, yeah."

(I just want you all to know, this hurt me to write.)
