The Neverland Inn : One-Shot Collection

NL Forever: S3E2

"I told her I don't like pineapple!"
Shania says shaking her head as the hospital room shut closed during lunch rounds. Shania curled her lip in disgust and she smelt the opened lid in the Jello container.
"Smells like old lady perfume!"

Dee looks over her People magazine and she says,
"Would you like some coffee pity baby?"

Shania tossed the Jello aside and she says, "I'm on a sugar free diet according to nurse whatever the hell her name was."

Faith comes over and she picked up the Jello.
"This can't be that bad.."
The girls had stayed in the hospital room like a camping trip and  they waited patient fot Shania to be discharged as she had recovered so fast. Never minding the paparazzi on their heels about Neverland Inn, they stayed by each others side.

"Have you heard anymore from your mom?"
Dee asks Shania as she crunched on her trail mix from the vending machine,
"Nope." She crunched, "Which is oddly suspicious."
Faith turned around with a spoon in her mouth and a horrible grimace across her face. She sat down the Jello and she gargles from the horrid taste,
"This aint...no damn pineapple..."

She spat it into the trash and she sat back beside Dee.
Shania changes the channel with her bed remote and she asks casual,
"So Dee, have you thought of names?"

Dee looks over half paying attention from her magazine and she says,
"Names of what?"
Shan rolled her eyes laughing and she says,
"Names for the baby.."

Faith becomes interested and she looks over her glasses grinning.

Dee avoided the topic reluctant to go further and she says,
"I'm not naming what could or could not be there. Not yet."

Shan leans back getting comfortable and she says,
"Yeah but if you knew for sure?"
She put down the magazine and crossed her legs thinking. Faith poked in and she mentions pondering,
"I'd name my son Elijah."

"Why Elijah?" Shan asks.

"That's a pretty ass name."

Dee giggles and she tosses the magazine nonchalantly to her side and she hums thinking. No one ever really thinks what to name their child unless they're put in the situation so she answers.

"If it were a girl...Maybe Johanna. I love that name...."
Shania smiled and Faith asked,
"But what if you had a boy..."

Dee actually had a name in mind her entire life and she frowns looking down until the room door swung open.
"Hello, I'm doctor Patel."
He stepped around the corner and the girls all gave their attention,
"You guys have drawn quite a crowd. Celebrities are we?"

He clicked his pen looking up from his papers and the girls sighed,
"Seems like it." Shania said with crossed arms.

He flips a few pages and hums,
"Good news, I have your discharge papers in order. You'll be in an arm cast for a few weeks for that wrist and that rib should heal accordingly."
They all cheered and he handed her a clipboard to sign and she gawked,
"Oh god I'm right handed."

They all laughed at her struggling with a left handed signature and he helps her into a sling.
He exited the room and the girls all smiled,
"Shan's going hooome."

She kinda shrugged and Dee notices her bland expression,
"Aren't you happy babe?"

She put her shirt back on from her bag and she tsked,
"I'm just worried."
Dee leaned back to her chair and she knew exactly how she felt. Faith sighed heavy and she said low,
"Guess there's really only one way to find out.."
