McKensie and Lara II :)
Kenna started to cry and shook her head "I'm sorry Luke...I'm just so scared...it hurts and she'll be gone...she won't be mine anymore." She sobbed shaking "I can't do it..." She looked at the nurse "I want to stay dressed..."Chris kissed her softly "I have my cellphone and you have yours, she needs you more. I'm going to nap and be boring...you get s screaming swearing Kenna I'm slightly jealous."
Luke kissed her cheeks, drying the tears. "She will still be yours, Kenna. She'll always be yours. We are just giving her a better home to grow up in, is all. You'll do marvellously and you are being so strong for the girl." He promised, easing her into a better position to deliver in. "You can't very well have a baby with your pants on, but you can keep them for now." He promised, massaging her sides and back a little.Laila felt badly for Chris. He was the father and he wouldn't get to see the kid born. "Ok." She finally agreed, satisfied that they would be alright. "I'll show you pics as soon as I can. " she promised. "But j better get going now. See you both in a few hours!" She said, heading down the halls to the delivery wing.
Kenna breathed easier feeling more in control and that's what really scared her about all this is she had no control. It was all the little miss who had the control over when she was going to pop out. She moaned as he shifted her and leaned against him squeezing his hand tightly "is my mum coming? And Emily? She said she'd be there for the delivery...oh gosh that's a lot of people staring at my vagina..." She moaned closing her eyes "what I would give to just have them cut it out of me!"Chris smiled and nodded hugging her one last time before getting into the taxi they had called, he took Keissy's hand and squeezed it bumping his forehead against hers "your going to be an aunt in a few hours, what do you think about that?" He asked playing with the lose strands of hair around her face "if she got any of my genes she'll look like you..."
Luke smiled a little when she visibly relaxed, as he always liked to see her happy and relaxed. He nodded, " Laila is on her way, and so is your mother. Emily followed us here. Don't know how far behind she is." He said honesly. Laila walked in then, smiling a rather tight lipped smile, as she hated pregnancy. But she ignored it and rushed to Kenna, hugging her. "How are you?" she asked, stressed about her friend. "Are you feeling alright?"Krissy snorted, shaking her head incredulously as f he should have known the answer, or should have asked. "I'm too young to be an Aunt!" She protested, not sure what she could do with a kid all to herself. She smiled brightly at Chris as they went home again. "But I'm glad you're my brother" she said honesly. He did so much for her that she looked up to him as the father figure really. "but I... I guess it might be nice if f the kid looked a little like me." She finally finished.
Kenna hugged her back and shook her head "can't be honest about that, this is the worse pain I have ever experianced!" She felt another contraction as she gripped onto Laila who was still hugging her and choked out a whimper "Laila I'm so scared..." She whispered knowing she would know best what it was like.Ryan led her to the delivery room and smiled "you ready for this Em? Your going to be a mom soon...we've been waiting so long for this moment...are yku nervous?"
Chris smiled and held her close arms around his neck as he rocked her back and forth "I'm the luckiest guy to have you as a sister Squish..after this things we'll get better you'll see. I'll go back to school get a good engineer job and get us a real house by the lake just like we always dreamed about..."
Laila rubbed her back gently. She knew what it was like... Giving birth. She knew all too well. It had been one of the worst experiences she had ever had. Especially since all the joy was gone from the situation as she did not want the child. But she could not dwell on her own feelings now. This was about Kenna. "I know it hurts Kenna. You're doing amazing." She encouraged, closing her eyes as she hugged her friend tight. "It'll all be over soon."Emily was gripping Ryan tightly, nearly shaking with nerves and excitement. "I'm so nervous..." She admitted. "I... It's horrible seeing her in so much pain". She admitted. "And yet I don't want to miss our baby being born."
Krissy smiled, content to snuggle in Chris's arms for the rest of the car ride. "A nice house would be great." She admitted, laying her head on his shoulder. "But you'd have to work hard for it. I wouldn't see you as much." She pointed out, worried.
Kenna nodded and took deep breaths finally letting her go, she let her and Luke leading her to the birthing ball as she bounced and rocked trying to stop the pain as much as she could. She was so grateful to have such amazing friends that stick by her side even as she was being a bit of a witch. "Ohhh" she moaned nearly falling off the stupid thing "that one was closer..." She looked at Laila "distract me, tell me something funny...or tell me about Chris, anything to get my mind off of this?"Chris played with her hair "it wouldn't be any different then how it used to be, working all day to support you and mom...I made about the same amount of money she just blew it on drugs..." He sighed trying not to hold a grudge against his own mother. "First I have to fix my truck, Laila said she'd help but I couldnt let her do that she has her own expenses as well."
Laila kept her hands on Kenna's shoulders, massaging and also making sure she wouldn't topple over. Luke sat beside her, holding one of her hands in both of his. Laila smiled lightly, glad to have something other than pregnancy to talk about. "I'm not very funny Kenna... you know that. But Chris... I don't know. He said he was going to take me out to a cottage he has on the lake." She said honestly. "That might be fun...." she just talked, trying to get Kenna focused on something else. Krissy nodded weakly, knowing what he said was true. She also knew she would miss him during the day. But what could she do about that? Then she smiled brightly, shaking her head. "She offered, isn't it rude to turn away a gift or something?" she asked, "Or are you just too proud to accept a gift?" she teased, kissing his cheek. "I like Laila. She's kinda quiet, but she's not shy, you know?"
Kenna smiled listening to her friend "that sounds so romantic Laila...boating and swimming, campfires sleeping on the hanic under the stars..." She sighed and then gasped rising off the ball as she felt more of a burning pressure "something is happening...Luke?" She asked scared not wanting to move.Chris smiled "you won't know I'm gone Krissy, you'll be at school and then I'll pick you up and we can spend the night together doing homework and watching movies alright?" He nodded understanding "she's just stressed right now, she's not quiet at all usually she's a spitfire like you! But I'm glad you like her, and I'll try to allow her to help."
Romance. The one thing that Laila wasn't good with. And she was being reminded of why now even more than ever because her friend was bloated and about to explode in the hospital room. Laila nearly cringed, thinking like that, and she swallowed her uneasiness. "Yeah..."Luke gently rolled her back a bit so he could check and he smiled lightly. "You're moving to stage two Laila, we should get you on the hospital bed now and make sure you're set up." he glanced at the nurse, and together they helped lift Kenna into the bed. "Do you want an epidural?" The nurse asked, calling in a doctor to help in the coming hours.
Krissy nodded finally, accepting that. She didn't want to go to school, but if Chris was gone too, and then working afterwards with her, it might not be so bad.
When he talked about Laila being stressed, Krissy raised an eyebrow. "Laila? Stressed? I couldn't tell." she pushed open the cab door and walked up to his apartment. "She looks sad about something though. Do you know what it is?" She asked, curious.
Kenna moved with Luke and shook her head at the offer of the epidural, breathing deeply as she focused on Luke squeezing his hand tightly, she refused to lay back though and let the doctor take control of her body. She leaned against Luke sitting behind her and winced her breathing becoming shorter and less relaxed. Emily was allowed in the room as she was wearing the scrubs and dressing gowns coming in with the doctor, Kenna gave a weak smile to her.
Chris followed after on his crutches and waited till he sat on the couch before speaking "she was raped when she was 16, it's hard seeing her best friend have my baby...plus her brother is getting married and she feels like she's losing him...plus being worried about me and the accident."
Luke kept his arms wrapped around Kenna, massaging her gently to try and help keep her relaxed. He was anything but. It was horrible seeing her so panicked and in pain, and there was nothing he could do about it. "You're doing great." he whispered, brushing her hair back from her ear. "You're getting really close now Kenna, is it alright if I change you into a hospital gown?" He asked gently, knowing it would have to be done sooner or later. Emily stood to the side and out of the way, smiling a little when Kenna smiled at her. She waved a small nervous wave, watching in tense anticipation.
Krissy's mouth fell open. "Oh..." She said softly. She nodded slowly as if that explained everything. "Poor girl." She said simply, sitting beside Chris on the couch. "No wonder she looked so stressed when Kenna asked her to come back to the hospital again." she mused. "Looked like she had received the death sentence or something." she shook her head.
Kenna took a deep breath and nodded, she was still terrified of being exposed to everyone but she knew it was the only way. Luke understood her, he knew how she was feeling and keeping his calm respectful relaxed energy around her did help. She looked at Laila and swallowed "Lai...you don't have to be here if it brings up bad memories...you can see the baby when she's all clean and happy ok? Im sorry I forced you to come..."Chris sighed and nodded "but she'd do anything for those she loves...she's the most selfless strong and beautiful girl I have ever met. I wish things started off differently with us, but she loves me...that's a lot coming from a girl who knows my past."
Luke kissed her cheek, so proud of her for being so very brave. He helped her out of her clothes gently, and into the hospital gown, being careful to make sure she was comfortable, and wasn't completely exposed yet. He knew that made her nervous. When she was changed, he wrapped his arms around her again, kissing her shoulder. "I love you." he whispered. Laila was hiding her emotions very well, and she put on a smile, squeezing her hand. "It's alright Kenna. You deserve the support and I want to be here for you." She said seriously. She had been alone for her own delivery, and she sure was't going to make Kenna suffer through this alone, regardless of how many bad memories she had.
Krissy smiled lightly, liking how her brother seemed so in love. She just hoped Laila really did love him back. She'd hate to see her break his heart again. "Don't ever look down on yourself." she said seriously, not liking how it sounded like he was talking badly about himself. She crossed her small arms. "Lots of girls like you. From what I've heard, all girls like you." She said. She was trying to make him feel better, but she didn't realize it might seem like she was saying that Laila only liked him for the same reasons all girls did.
The nurse helped her in the position and got set up she frowned checking the contractions sheet "Kenna...we aren't getting an accurate reading im going to place a monitor inside to track the baby easier." Kenna shook her head refusing to be just a guinea pig they could do whatever they want with. "No if the baby is not in danger im not doing it." She said holding onto Laila's hand tightly needing support with this.Chris sighed "Kriss...girl's like me because I ised to give them sex a lot...I wasn't s good guy and I hope that Laila likes me for just being me...I love her, I know she's the one but I don't want to scare her away.
((sorry this took so long! I was having supper))Luke closed his eyes, breathing slowly. If they couldn't get a reading, that meant there was more chance they wouldn't notice if her conditions changed. "Kenna... baby. Please would you consider the monitor? It's just for your safety, I promise." he whispered, kissing her cheek as one hand played with her hair. "It's just a precaution." He promised.
Laila stayed quiet, but just held Kenna's hand, trying to stay strong for her.
Krissy frowned, not entirely understanding what he meant by that. "Sex?" She asked, scrunching up her nose. "Sex... like... uh..." She glanced at him, asking for confirmation of what exactly this sex was that all girls seemed to love. Regardless, she liked Laila. "I'm sure she loves you for you." She assured.
Kenna shook her head "it'll hurt...I don't want anything in me Luke...please?" She begged and moaned as she felt more pain and gripped onto his hand tightly and shut her eyes forgetting to breathe her blood pressure going down.Chris blew through his lips and smiled "right forget how old you are sometimes...its um I'll tell you when your older Krissy but it's how babies are made and it's not something you should do with a lot of people."
Luke nodded finally, agreeing. "Alright Kenna." He agreed. "I wont force you into anything." He promised. "But I really would feel better if they could monitor you better." He said honestly. He held her tightly in his arms, massaging her lower back. "Breathe Kenna. Breathe baby, you're doing great. It's almost over." he assured. He kissed her neck gently. Krissy nodded grimly as if that explained it all. She was still rather confused however. But she didn't question it. "I see." she said softly. "So that's why Kenna is having a baby?" She asked, looking up at him. "Did you love her too?"
The nurse frowned, something wasn't right "I'm doing it, I'm the nurse and you are in trouble." Kenna shook her head but she was delerious as she lay on Luke's chest trying to clamp her knees together but she was shivering.Chris sighed and shook his head "no, and that's the biggest problem with me, Im not that guy anymore and I'm not going to have sex unless it's with Laila and why do I keep saying this to you...let's watch powerpuff girls ok?"
Luke was very close to breaking his calm resolve, and his hold on Kenna tightened protectively. "You're ok Kenna. Everything is going to be ok." he said gently, getting very worried about her. He gently coaxed her knees apart so the nurse could work. He rubbed her arms gently, trying to keep her ok. "You're alright." He whispered. Laila had to leave to the hall, as this was getting to be too much. Her hands were shaking, and she was trying to hid it. She was very close to breaking down into tears.
Krissy nodded a little, starting to gain some understanding. "well. I'm sure Laila would like to... um... have sex with you." she said, trying to encourage him, despite the lack of knowledge she had on this topic. Then she beamed. "I can turn on the tv?" She asked hopefully.
The nurse inserted the monitor and frowned "she's preaclamptic, doctor we need to get this baby out." She said making the bed go down and raising the stirrups. Kenna panicked shaking her head "Luke...call my mom please..."Chris nodded giving her the remote as he threw pills in his mouth to handle the pain and leaned back "don't ever grow up kid ok? Don't ever have sex and stay innocent and adorable...I love you baby sister."
Luke paled a good couple shades, getting pretty nervous then. "You can help it though, right?" He asked the doctor, very stressed. He nodded to Kenna, getting up off the bed. "I'll call your mother and come right back." He promised, going out into the hallway. There he found Laila crumpled against the wall, crying quietly. "Laila... you should go home." he said softly, before picking up the phone and calling Kenna's mother, who immediately promised she was on her way. Krissy smiled brightly. "Ok. I'll try." She promised, turning on the TV on. She curled up against Chris and got comfortable, watching some of the teen reality tv that was showing. She was content to sit with him and enjoy the tv show.
Kenna was scared and waited till Luke back as she grabbed his hand and leaned into his shoulder as she let the doctors work on her "I can be brave...I can do this Luke. Tell Laila that I'm so sorry, I didn't want get to this point..."Chris blinked "see that right there? When it gets to the night vision that's sex ok? Lessons on growing up over for today." He called Laila and frowned at her crying "baby what's going on?"
Luke held her again gently, deliberately not watching what the doctors were doing. He couldn't stand to see it as he knew he would just worry. "You are incredibly brave." He agreed. "Laila is alright, she's just worried about you, as am I." he promised, even though he knew that was probably only part of the problem. "You're doing wonderfully, and your mother is on her way."Laila wiped her eyes, not expecting a call from Chris. She made sure she was no longer sniffling before she answered. "Kenna is still in labour." she answered, letting him know what was happening. "They're worried about her having preclampsia though." She said honestly. "They say she'll probably be alright...."
Kenna started to push and in few very painful hours she had the baby. The nurse wrapped her up and handed her to Emily "here's your little girl..." Kenna smiled tiredly at Luke and her mother "I have to stay an extra three days because of the preeclampsia but I did it Luke!"Chris sighed "baby...it'll be ok, Do you need to come home? I know that it's hard to be there...but remember this isn't you anymore and I've got a snuggle blanket and a hug waiting for you.@
Emily was practically crying tears of joy when the baby was placed in her arms and she rocked the child gently. Kennas mother held her hand, and Luke stayed where e was, not having let go of her even for a moment. "I've never been more proud." He said, kissing her damp face gently. "You did amazing," he whispered gently. He had his own tears of joy and thankfulness glistening in his eyes.
Laila huffed out slowly, shaking her head. "Kennas had the kid now. I'll be alright. I should congratulate her, and then I'll be on my way home." She promised, knowing that she needed to find somewhere to have a good cry. Too many memories had come back. She got up, dried her tears and walked into the hospital room. "You survived." She said, smiling lightly.
Ryan smiled at Emily and nodded "I like the name Alexa what do you think Emily? Oh look at those big brown eyes..." He whispered feeling emotional as he kissed her hair "hi baby I'm your daddy..."Kenna smiled lightly "if It had been one more day I wouldn't be...I'm glad that she's ok and I'm glad I can wear underwear again..." She leaned into Luke "I have the best boyfriend in the world..."
Emily smiled, running her thumb gently over the back of the baby's hand. "Alexa..." she whispered, smiling brightly. "I love the name." she promised. She gently put the child in her husband's arms and smiled. "She'll be daddy's girl." She whispered, her heart on fire with love for her family. Laila smiled lightly. "I'm glad to see you ok." She said honestly. "Luke's definitely a keeper." She said, winking at him.
Luke grinned, kissing Kenna's hair. "And I've got the best girl friends and girlfriend in the world." He said, beaming. "You did amazing baby."
Laila smiled, backing out of the room. "I'll leave you some time to recover Kenna, I should probably go check on Chris." she said, waving as she left and got into the car.
On the way home, Laila allowed herself to cry all her tears, so that she would be happy again by the time she got to Chris's apartment. When she arrived, she dried her tears and reapplied her makeup, putting on a smile as she opened the door. "I'm back."
Chris slowly rose and crutches over to her and held her close, she couldn't Hude much from him and he knew she was hurting. He curled up with her on the couch and nuzzled her gently "Krissy is in bed its just us...you can tell me anything love...I'm here for you."Kenna smiled watching Emily, she thought it would be hard but it wasn't they looked like the perfect family together, she rested on Luke's chest "it's all over..." She whispered not knowing how to feel about that, she curled up starting to cry all of her pent up emotions being released.
Laila curled up with him on the couch, sighing softly. How much should she tell him? She knew lying wasn't a good habit to get into, so she made up her mind to just be straight with him. "I gave birth alone. I was too embarrassed to call Kenna or Luke, and my family had been very unsupportive of the pregnancy from the start." She said honestly. "So I couldn't leave Kenna to the same fate as me. But... it was hard watching her deliver. There were a lot of painful memories." She admitted, keeping her eyes fixed on a spot on the wall. Luke smiled lightly, nodded. "Yes. It's over." he whispered, glad he could finally spend some quality time with her. "I love you." He whispered, cuddling her in his arms. He just held her, letting her cry against him. He knew this was very emotional for her.
Chris felt his heart ache for her he tucked her into his chest, the spot she always liked to be in and kissed her temple stroking her arm "I'm so sorry baby...honestly I thought you had aborted the baby, I had no idea you delivered...the must have been terrifying...you are so brave and I'm sure Kenna appreciated the support..." He paused just letting the silence settle as he kissed her hair "did you see the baby?" He asked finally very quietly trying to get his voice not to crack.
Laila lay her head on his chest and closed her eyes. She had made up her mind not to cry again, but that didn't mean it was easy to keep them away. She just nodded a little. "It's alright. It's in the past now." she whispered. Though really, in her memories she lived it again often. "I did see the baby. Emily named her Alexa. She was very sweet." she said, managing to put on a smile. Regardless of what she felt, she knew she had to lock it away and continue on for the sake of others. She needed to be strong for Kenna and Luke. She had to be strong for her brother, and most of all, she had to be strong for Krissy and Chris.
Chris smiled and tucked her hair gently behind her ear as he caressed her face and tender lips softly trying to be of comfort "maybe the reason you are so upset about Andrew getting married is your losing the one support you had, the one person you truly trusted during that time..." He sighed hating how hurt she was "do you want a counselor?...I know that sounds hokey but I go to a counselor and I really like him...you could talk to him and help with the nightmares and pain. I hurt because you hurt."
Laila closed her eyes, knowing he was hitting that pretty bang on. Andrew had been the only one who really hadn't judged her. Or, at least he had the sense to hide it if he did. But her brother was right about one thing... she found it hard to open up to anyone. And she knew that was something she needed to work on. "Councillors have always sounded scary." she admitted. "My parents tried to push me into getting one." She admitted. "But I mean... if you think they'd help, I'm open to suggestions." She really did want to be open for him, she just didn't know how to be. Somehow, she wasn't sure how a councillor would help her be more open to Chris... but she was willing to try anything. She sat up, looking at him. "I'm... I'm sorry about this. I know you don't need another problem in your life. I really am the worst person to be there for you." She sighed softly. "I don't know how to go back to the way I was before what happened. I... I guess I find it hard to open up." She said honestly.
Chris nodded and put his finger over her lips "shh, you are the perfect one for me Laila, caring for you and helping you brings me purpose and joy...I don't feel like the scum I used to be, you are the one healing me Laila...I want us to try and talk to this counselor together alright? I love you...but I'm scared one day I'll lose you because I pushed you too far..."
Laila quieted and nodded slowly, a tear finally rolling down her cheek. She didn't think she could heal anyone, but the fact that she was some help to him was better than any feeling she had had before. It gave her purpose just like his helping her gave him purpose. "Ok. But I doubt you would ever push me too far." She said, turning over and gently pressing her lips to his. "I love you Chris. Please know that. Even if I seem to push you away, know that I love you." She whispered, wanting to make sure that he wouldn't ever be wounded by her words if she said something she didn't mean.
Chris tenderly kissed her back and smiled nodding "I'm a tough guy, takes a lot to offend me Laila..." He paused re-thinking that statement "if it hurt you or my family then I'll crack but other then that I'm a good punching bag...you can tell me anything." He promised and sighed peeling off the bandages "I'm a mummy..."
Laila nodded then, feeling a little better. She could remember punching him in the first couple of days after they had gotten together and she smiled a little. "I quite literally used you for that purpose, if you remember..." She kept her worries to herself however, as he had cracked after that. When he started unravelling the bandages, she smiled lightly. "Yes, yes you are. Do you need any help?" She asked, wondering if she could help with unwinding them, or anything else he might need. She didn't know if he was still in any pain or not.
Chris nodded and let her unravel the gross gauze, he smiled watching her being so careful and gentle with him he was shirtless and honestly really comfortable with her. "I messed up with Kristine...she doesn't know what sex is, and I forgot that because she mentioned all girls like me...it was interesting to say the least." He chuckled and winced as one tugged stitches "let's leave that one be...do I look like Frankenstein?" He smiled and pecked her lips just loving to be with her.
Laila was glad to have something to focus on, and she was very careful with the gauze, tossing it away once it was off. "Looks like you're pretty much healed." She mumbled to herself. She stood and grabbed a cloth from the kitchen, and a hot bowl of water, bringing them back over to him. She dipped the rag in and then started on his shoulder, wiping away any remaining dried blood. She chuckled at his story. "Well it sounds like it went well." She said, shaking her head. "So what... you said girls like sex or something?" She smiled then. "A handsome Frankensein." She agreed.
Chris shuddered as the cloth wiped over very large bruises on his back and chest "Pretty much...nothing ultra damaging...my truck kept me alive." He smiled and chuckled "yeah kind of, I think I confused her more...I just don't know how to talk to her about being a girl...what if she has that...what's it called time of month? She's almost 9..."
Laila tried to be gentle with his wounds, washing away the blood until he was all clean, save for some bruises and a few long red lines that were still healing. But he was still handsome. She didn't think she had seen him shirtless before. She laughed softly. "The poor girl. I'll have to help her out when she gets older I guess." She said, smiling a little. She could only imagine Chris trying to explain it. "It's called a period, dear. And yes, it comes once a month." She was grinning.
Chris smiled and sighed wincing in pain as he took her hand "your like the sister she's always needed but never had...thank you, I need a lot of help. More help then even I understand, I just want...I want her to grow up and forget where we came from. But she still has nightmares..." He started to shake angrily "she doesn't know what sex is and yet my dad used to abuse and rape her...but she was too young to understand..."
Laila put down the rag and held his hand in hers as he took it. She could tell he was still in pain, and she felt really badly about that. She smiled lightly. "Sister is a big responsibility, but I'll try." she said seriously, wanting to help in any way she could. She listened as he talked about Krissy, and a sort of sinking feeling filled her gut. "Chris... I'm so sorry..." She whispered, hating that that happened to his sister. She knew how damaging rape could be. She was just glad that Krissy did not understand what was going. "I had no idea..." she looked down. She knew this was a tough subject for both of them, and by the look of the rage on his face, she knew the treatment of his sister must have hurt him too. "She's a tough girl." She whispered.
Chris laughed through his tears and nodded holding onto her tightly as he just cried "it's not fair that you and her were broken and hurt I hate him! I hate that I couldn't save you or her...I hate that I was that dispicable jerk that only thought about girls as objects as I'm sure my dad did and that prick of a boyfriend..." He crumbled and just sobbed finally realizing all the anguish he hid from everyone.
Laila stayed quiet and let him let go of it all, just being there to listen as he ranted about the injustices of the world. She agreed with him completely, and she had cried the same things over and over before. It was his turn and she wrapped her arms around him, tangling her hands into his hair and holding onto him for dear life, her face buried in his neck as she let him cry. He needed this, she knew that, and she just wanted to be there for him.
Chris held out and swallowed all his tears as he just clung to her, they had never been this close him without a shirt her in a tank top. It made him pull away before any thoughts traveled to his member and caused even more problems "want me to drive you home? Or are you staying?" He checked thd time and swore "it's already tomorrow..."
Laila held onto him until he pulled away from her again, and then she straightened, hugging her arms to herself. She was no longer touching him and now it was a little chilly. She thought that he must be freezing in no shirt at all. She smiled lightly when he said it was tomorrow. They had been up all night with the crash, and then with Kenna's birth. "I might as well stay then." She shrugged. "If you don't mind." She added hastily.
Chris shook his head "you know I don't mind Laila." He got her his hoodie so she would be warm and clean gym shorts for pj bottoms "you can sleep with me or out on the couch." He offered and smiled getting more blankets for her and pecking her on the way over to the linen closet.
Laila put her phone away, looking around worriedly. "Looks like I'm staying here with Kenna." She said, putting her hands in her pockets. "Are you sure you two will be alright?" She asked, worried.
