Coming Home For Christmas
Chapter 94

Lacey's

P.O.V.

"How's my wife, doc? is she gonna be ok?"

"She's going to be perfectly fine, Mr Black"

"If she's gonna be fine, then why did she faint?"

Logan asked angrily and with panic in his voice.

"It was a mixture of exhaustion and lack of food which resulted in her fainting which isn't good for a woman in her condition" Condition?.

What condition?.

"She's going to need a lot of rest and watch her food and vitamin intake from now on"

"Oh trust me, doc, she will, I'll make sure of it myself"

Wait, what bluddy condition?.

"Good, now...I've got a few questions for you, Mr Black and I'd like to apologise in advance for the first one I've gotta ask you "Why's that?"

There was silence in the room for a few seconds before the doctor answered him.

"Well...I've noticed your wife has got a cut on her lip that is healing and a bruise on her jaw which is fading...I don't like to speculate but..." "I'm not beating my wife, doc if that's what you're insinuating"

Logan growled and I knew I had to do something before he went all Conor McGregor on the poor doctor.

"No, no, no, no, I.....I'm not saying that, I was just..."

"Logan"

I say with more of a huskiness to my voice as I open my eyes.

"Baby...babe, are you ok?"

Logan asked sounding both relieved and concerned at the same time as he cupped my face with both of his hands. "I'm fine"

I look around the boring white room and my eyes narrow in confusion when I realise that I'm in the hospital.

"Why am I in the hospital? what's going on?"

"You fainted, baby, don't you remember?"

He asks me and I shake my head.

"No...no, I don't remember, when did it happen?"

I ask and Logan looks at me like what the f**k?.

"You were talking with Liam and then you fainted" "Really?"

I ask confused.

That's weird, I don't remember that at all.

"What do you remember, love?"

"I don't know, I...I remember Liam giving me a gift and then he asked if we could talk...I don't remember fainting though...did I bang my head?"

I ask as I narrow my eyes between Logan and the doctor and they both shake their heads.

"No Lace, Liam caught you before you could hit the ground"

Logan tells me and I rub my forehead.

"Are you ok, Mrs Black?"

The doctor asks me.

"I don't know, I don't understand why I fainted"

"Well, there are several contributing factors for why you fainted, Mrs Black..."

The doctor said only to be cut off by Logan.

"Doc, can you give us a few minutes alone, please?"

Logan asked the doctor who looked unsure with his request but agreed anyway.

"Sure"

The doctor placed the file he was holding into some holder at the end of my bed before leaving the room.

"Logan, what's going on? why did I faint? is everything ok?"

"You're fine, babe, in fact..."

Logan said as he lifted my hand up and kissed the back of it before looking at me with a smile so bright, I'm surprised it didn't blind me.

"You're better than fine, Lace...you're perfect"

Huh.

"Babe, what's going on? you're scaring me"

I say and he chuckles.

"There's no need to be scared, love"

Logan says and I scoff while rolling my eyes.

"Babe, I'm in the hospital after fainting and you're sitting there smiling like a creepy little s**t telling me I shouldn't be scared like what the f**k?...did I faint in New York and wake up in the freaking Twilight Zone?"

I ask and he once again chuckles.

"Of course not, babe...I said you've got no reason to be scared because even though a part of the reason why you fainted is because you've been neglecting your health by not eating and sleeping enough....there's also another reason why your body decided to shut down to protect itself" What?.

"What the hell are you talking about, Logan?"

"Babe..."

Logan drifted off as he placed his free hand on my flat stomach.

My eyes nervously drifted between Logan and his hand as my heart rate started to pick up.

There's no way.

"Logan..."

"You're pregnant, babe"

WHAT?.

I snapped my head to Logan who was smiling like the cat that got the cream while I felt like I was about to have a palpitation.

"I..I'm what?"

"You're pregnant, babe, we're having a baby"

Logan said with a smirk.

"No...no, I'm not having A baby, Logan because knowing you're super semen that likes to multiply with the speed of Usair Bolt, we're gonna end up having a whole f*****g squad"

I say in a panic and do you know what Logan did? he chuckled, the bastard f*****g laughed at me while I was over here panicking.

"Babe, we're not gonna have a squad"

"No, you're right, it's not like we've ever had multiples before, right?"

I said while taking deep breaths to try and calm myself down.

Don't get me wrong, I'm incredibly happy that I'm pregnant again and we're expanding our family, it's just I'm scared to go through all of that again.

"Lacey, talk to me, love, tell me what's going on in that pretty little head of yours?"

Logan asked me in a worried tone as he gently stroked my hair but then his tone turned sad.

"Are you not happy that we're having another baby?"

"No, of course I'm happy babe, it's just..."

I drifted off before closing my eyes and letting out a breath.

"I'm scared, Logan"

"What?...why are you scared?"

I open my eyes and look at Logan who looks confused but also worried.

"Because my first pregnancy was so stressful for me...I spent my entire pregnancy freaking out and panicking, I was scared over every little thing from what I ate or drank, to what vitamins I could or couldn't take, to me coming down with something as simple as a sniffle because I thought it would harm our babies or force me into an early labour and I'm...I'm just so freaking terrified of going through all of that again"

"Aww, babe" Logan says as he sits down on the bed next to me.

"You don't have to be scared, babe because you're not alone this time"

"I know I'm not"

I said with a smile as I gently gripped his hand.

"But it doesn't matter if you're here with me or not because I'm still gonna live every day of the next nine months in fear o us losing our baby"

"We're not gonna lose our baby, Lace"

Logan said as he leaned in and kissed my lips.

He then rested his forehead against mine and I felt myself instantly calm down and relax from his touch and kiss.

"Trust your husband, my queen...trust me when I tell you that everything is gonna be ok and our baby or babies are gonn be born perfectly healthy"

"But..."

I say before being cut off by Logan.

"No buts, Lacey Black, everything is gonna be fine, you're gonna be perfectly healthy and you're gonna provide the most perfect home for our new babies, I promise you"

"How can you promise that, Logan?"

"Because I can"

He says all smug and I chuckle.

"I can promise you that everything's gonna be ok because I'm Logan Black and I'm gonna make sure you look after yourself and don't over-exert yourself"

"Well, that's not gonna be easy with three kids, babe, one of whom is ADHD and also with Christmas around the corner" I say and he shrugs his shoulders.

"I don't care, babe, I'm doing what I should've done earlier when I noticed you were pale and I'm gonna look after you, oh and by the way...why didn't you tell me that you almost fainted earlier?" He says and my eyes widen.

"How do you know about that?"

"Michael and Grace"

He says angrily.

"They've been panicking and crying ever since we found you passed out in Liam's arms, they've been so upset and worrie about you that one would think you're their daughter, the way they're acting" Logan briefly lets out a breath before continuing.

"They've also both been blaming themselves as well, Lace"

What?.

"Why are they blaming themselves? it's not their fault"

I ask and Logan looks at me like really?.

"Because you almost fainted when you were showing them around the poolhouse and they were so concerned for you they wanted to call me but you convinced them not to"

He says and I close my eyes and sigh.

"Please don't be mad with me or with them, babe, I honestly didn't think anything was wrong with me and I just thought I was a little tired, that's all"

"You probably were tired, babe because pregnancy causes fatigue but either way, pregnant or not, it's no excuse to ignore it"

He says and I nod my head.

"You're right and I promise from now on, I'll look after myself and our baby"

I say with a smile which Logan reciprocated as he leans in and kisses my lips.

Knock!!, knock!!.

We were interrupted by a knock on the door.

"I hate to interrupt you guys but it's getting late and I'm sure you all would like to get home"

YES!!!

"Thank god, I thought I'd have to spend the night in here...no offence"

I say earning chuckles from the two men.

"None taken and we're more than happy for you to go home, Mrs Black but before we do, would you like to see your baby

He asks and I gasp happily.

"Yes, yes of course"

I say excitedly and the two men once again laugh at my excitement.

Logan then came around to the left side of my bed while the nurses set up the machines.

The doctor then requested I lift up my shirt which I did and he squeezed that cold ass gel on my stomach before rolling the probe around on it. "Relax, baby"

I tell my husband who was holding my hand with a death grip whilst looking at the machine with an anxious expression. "I am relaxed, babe" "Yeah, tell that to my hand"

I say and he immediately softens his grip.

"Sorry, love"

"It's ok, babe"

After a few minutes, the doctor finally pulled up the image of our baby and my eyes went from the screen which had a little white dot on it to Logan who was staring at the screen in awe. "There's your baby"

"Wow...it looks like a tiny little bean"

The doctor said.

Logan says and I smile.

"That was literally my reaction when I first saw the triplets"

"Really? but there's only one on the screen"

Logan says confused.

"We won't be able to replace out if you're having multiples until around the twelve-week mark and according to this, your wif is only around three weeks along in her pregnancy"

Three weeks?.

That's how long we've been back in New York.

Oh my god.

I thought to myself while rolling my eyes.

"Logan you should really go and play for your favourite soccer or basketball team"

"What? why?"

He asks confused and I look at him annoyed.

"Because you literally take the termhe shoots he scores way too freaking seriously, I mean, the very first time we had s*x, ended up pregnant with multiples and then when we had s*x for the first time again after six long years, you've impregnated me yet again and potentially with multiples"

I say angrily and he laughs.

"It's not my fault, babe"

He says and I look at him like what the f**k?.

"Well, whose fault is it then, Logan? because it certainly isn't mine, I just provided the oven, you're the one with the ingredients, my love"

I say earning chuckles from everyone in the room.

"You're crazy, Lacey Black"

"Yeah, I'm the Harley to your Joker"

I say in frustration.

"I'd much prefer for us to be Harley and Batman, babe, you know because you're batshit crazy and I'm the handsome and smart billionaire who is a superhero for his wife and kids"

Urgh!!!

I wonder if my brilliant and smart husband can spell the word conceited, I mean, he should since he's got a big a's head and there should be a brain of the same size somewhere in there.

Wait. "Who are you calling batshit crazy?"
