Chapter 177 - May day May day (173)

The story had worked. Bella was now calmer and the baby's heart beat was normal. They gave her a shot to start her labor.

As the pain hit her and she was breathing harder she could not help but curse Zane for leaving her alone in this life.

"You should have more faith in me my beauty."

JANUARY: The plane carrying the men home from china hit a storm that was like nothing that George had never seen.

One of the engines had been struck by lighting and they were flying with one engine. This was still do able so he sent out a call, "May day May day this is Charlie Eco 2114 on a flight from Hawaii to the main land."

"Go ahead 2114"

"We have had one engine hit by lightning, I repeat one engine hit by lighting."

"Is the plane still fly able?"

"Yes, I will try to guide it to land but what to let surch and rescue know in case something happens."

"Roger that. We will keep this line open. Keep us up dated."

Then plane was still being hit with wind and rain and was shaking like crazy.

Zane made his way to the cockpit.

"Are we going to make it?" He asked.

"I'm trying my best."

'BOOM" Then plane was hit again by lighting and was going down.

"May day May day lost last engine and falling into the ocean. Our coordinates are ××× degree latitude by xxx degree longitude. I repeat lost both engines going down. Our coordinates are ××× degree latitude by xxx degree longitude."

They hit the water. The storm was still heavy out side but the plane was taking on water. The three men put on life vest and launched the inflatable boat. Bert grabbed the case of water and a box of emergency rations and they were afloat. They had hoped someone would be there soon to rescue them.

Rescue did not come and after four day of floating and they were running low on rations they spotted land.

They had landed on a tropical paradise.

As they explored the island they found an old army outpost. Looking like it was left from one of the world wars.

They found an old radio that would need a lot of work to get it up and running.

Food and water were plenty. They figured how to fish in the lagoon and there were many different tropical plants.

George worked on trying to get the radio working. They had been there for at least two months when they finally heard a voice on the radio but it seemed they could not get through to them.

George then had to start over. All the parts were old and even though he had built radios from scratch he had used new parts not 100 year old parts.

It took another few months and they heard the sweet reply of a passing ship.

When they got back the government kept them in isolation to make sure they were healthy before sending them back to their home town.

Zane arrived at home to find Bella gone. Where could that little minx be. Then he found out from one of the maids she was living at the penthouse.

He rushed to surprise her to be told she was at the hospital.

He walked in as her heard, "Zane you son of a bi**h, how dare you die on me and leave me to have this child alone."

"You should have more faith in me my beauty." He smiled as he moved to her side.

Ben's mouth dropped. "Bella kept saying you were alive and no one believed her. She just excepted it today."

"I am a live. I a sure you. I'll tell you about it later. My baby girl wants to see her daddy."

Ben excused himself and called his father.

"What about Bert, is he back too?" Robert asked.

"I don't know, Bella is having the baby right now so I can't ask."

◇◇◇♡♡♡◇◇◇

Bert had headed home. There was nobody there so he went up to his room to find it bare. Lily's things were gone.

He then went to Rose's room to find all her things gone too.

He called the station and talked to Lily's captain to find out she had taken leave and was back in the house on the beach.

He took a taxi and stood looking out at the ocean and the two red heads sitting on the beach watching the waves.

He walked over to a vender who was selling kites and bought one. Then went running across the sand and when it was high in the air he walked up behind them.

"Miss, Can I ask for your help in flying my kite?" He said.

Rose looked up to see a huge butterfly kite in the air. Then she looked back to see a tall man with a goofy smile on his face.

"I know you can't talk to strangers but if we don't talk and you just help me does it count?"

Lily froze, that voice couldn't be.

Rose was on her feet flying into him. "I missed you. Why did you go away?"

Lily stood up and jumped into his arms. The kite was dropped and flew out over the water.

"Don't ever leave again." Lily said kissing him.

They walked back to the little house so he could share the story of the past few months and how he made it back.

George walked in and heard his wife singing a lullaby. As he entered the room He saw her rocking Peyton.

"Mama going buy you a diamond ring"

"If that diamond ring don't shine." He sung and she looked over. She could not believe her eyes. She got up and placed Peyton in a small crib and flew into his arms.

He kissed her then noticed her small bulging tummy, "Are you pregnant?"

"With Josh's Twins." She smiled.

"I forgot you were doing that."

"Where have you been? We thought you were dead. Only Bella kept saying you were all alive. Are the others a live too?"

"Yes, Sit and I'll tell you all about it."

Sam was getting hungry and tired of being in his room so he headed down stairs. He heard his mother talking to someone. He could not believe that she had another man in his fathers house. He went in to run this man out when he stop.

It was his father sitting there. He had now gone crazy and he knew it. Then he passed out and hit the floor.
