I woke up in a hospital, with needles in my arms, "how are you feeling Mrs. King?" A male asked.
"Good, where's my husband?" I asked.
"He is in meetings so had to leave," he said.
"What happened?" I asked.
"Your body shut down from little nutrition, but we have been able to get your levels back to optimal levels," he said.
"When will I be able to go home?" I asked.
"When your husband comes and discharges you," he said.
"How's my baby?" I asked.
"Would you like to know the gender?" He asked, I shook my head. "Well they're okay, but this isn't your first pregnancy is it?" He asked.
"No Sir, I've had four pregnancies before this one," I said.
"You must have a busy household," he remarked.
"No, I lost them all," I said.
"I'm sorry," he said, when his pager beeped. "I'm sorry I have to go," he said, as he ran out of the room, leaving me in the bed. I just laid there feeling bean kick I smile and put my hand on my bump, closing my eyes and waited.
"Hey baby," Master said, I opened my eyes and smiled.
"Hey M, I'm sorry," I said.
"Don't be, it's my fault, I should've upped your nutrition while you were comatose, it wouldn't have hurt you, in fact, it may have helped you. I'm sorry" Master said.
"Don't Master I love you, I'm okay don't be sorry Master it's not your fault" I whispered, holding his hand in mine and smiling up at him.
"I love you too little slave," Master said, kissing my forehead.
"Can we go home? I don't like wearing clothes and just wish for them to come off" I said, Master chuckled.
"Of course, we're just waiting for someone to come in and unhook you from the machines so we can go home," Master said.
"Ok, could we see Langley to find the gender of our kid?" I asked.
"Of course, we can," Master said.
"You know I could just tell you the gender," the doctor said as he came in.
"We'd like to see them through the ultrasound and hear their heart because you never know when the last time will be," I said.
"I could show you through the ultrasound if it's what you wish," he said, I looked up to Master.
"No, we will leave now," Master said.
"Ma'am, are you okay?" He asked.
"I'm fine, we have a doctor that we are loyal with, and trust with our baby, we prefer not to see anyone else, but can we go now? I want to go home" I said, he nodded and hesitantly started to take the wires off. I smiled as I stood up, Master took my hand in his.
"I'm so glad you're okay," Master said, embracing me in a hug, I smiled and hugged him back.
"You can't get rid of me that fast M, not when I just came back," I said softly.
"And you're not going anywhere, my perfect little wife," Master said, lifting my face to his and kissed me.
"I wouldn't wish to be anywhere else" I breathed out when he pulled back.
"Now let's go home, and see our doctor to see what we're having," Master said, I nodded and we walked out of the hospital hand in hand.
We didn't talk the ride home and I was hoping that we were having a boy so that I could finally meet my baby, to take care of him. "Master, may I ask you something?" I asked, breaking the silence.
"Sure slave," Master said.
"If he is a boy, and he survives to birth, will you help care for him?" I asked.
"You're the slave," Master said.
"Yes Master, can I ask another question?" I asked.
"Last one for the day slave, unless you'll be willing to pay for it," Master said.
"Yes Master, but is it bad that I want him to be a boy, to keep me awake at night to hear him scream and cry, all the things new parents complain about I want, is it bad?" I asked.
"Not at all slave, I think it's a good thing that you want that slave," Master said.
"I really hope he's a boy Master all these abortions take a toll and I just want to hold him, hear him cry," I said.
"If she's a girl you will have an abortion slave," Master said.
"I know Master but I'm hoping that we won't have to, I'm hoping that the last one would be the last abortion," I said.
"Well we're about to find out," Master said, as he pulled into the warehouse. When he parked the car we got out and I took the dress off and had it tossed over my arms. As we walked to the place where we keep our doctor's office, I placed the dress on the doorstep of our house, to bring in after finding the gender.
"I'm nervous Master, this is the part I dread the most," I said.
"We'll be fine slave," Master said, I nodded as we headed in.
"Here to find the gender I assume Master" Langley said.
"Yes slave," Master said.
"Well you know the drill, hop on up," Langley said, patting on the bed, so I got up and allowed her to put the gel and then the doppler. I could hear his heartbeat and I smiled, listening to it. "So it looks like you are having a boy," Langley said, and I started crying.
"Why are you crying, slave?" Master asked, smiling down at me as he cupped my face.
"I'm just so happy Master, we're finally having a son, I'll be able to hold him, to care for him if I don't have a miscarriage. I'm sorry, I'm just so excited" I said, Master laughed and kissed me, and I kissed him back.
"I'm happy too, little slave," Master said, smiling down at me, his eyes crinkled at the end, and were filled with happiness. "It's almost time to eat slaves," Master said.
"Yes Master, we said at the same time, after Langley cleaned the gel off, I got up and the three of us headed to go eat.
