“Hey, how is she?” Logan asked when
he saw his friend leave the bedroom.
“She’s tired and I think her iron is
low. The food she ate yesterday seems to have helped her dizziness, but Logan,
we need to get her to the hospital now. She went from 5 cm dilated to six while
I was checking her and she’s starting to feel the contractions in her abdomen.”
“Oh God! Okay um… I’ll get her into
the truck. Are the roads okay? Hell, it doesn’t matter, it’s just down the
street. I wonder if I should pack her bag. Oh man, we’ve got to hurry.
Nicoletta was chuckling at her old
friend. “Logan, is this your baby? You’re acting like an expectant father.”
He stopped pacing and his jaw
dropped. “Uh no…no, the baby isn’t mine. But Jesus this is all so,
so…nerve-wracking!”
Just then, Jayna came out of the
bedroom groaning and holding her stomach. “We need to go now,” she breathed.
“Please!”
“Yeah, yeah. Come on,” Logan said,
grabbing his keys and wallet and walking out the door.
A few moments later, he walked back
inside. “I guess we should take the mom-to-be, huh?”
Nicoletta and Jayna both laughed at
him. Logan put his jacket over her head and they all walked out of the nearly
empty store as if nothing were out of the ordinary.
Nicoletta helped Logan get her
through the six inches of fresh snow and into the truck before she headed to
her own car with a promise to meet them at the hospital.
