Tessa
"What do you mean it isn't looking good"I say to Hardin "I...I....fuck I don't know that's what Landon said he say we can fly out in two hours"

"Go I'll help you pack"I follow him to the bedroom I quickly help Hardin pack a bag "Tessa I'm scared"Hardin says to me I have actually never seen him look like this "Hardin"I take his hand "do you think he will be ok"Trish walks in "he will be mum"Hardin says to her and she try's to give a small smile "I better get going"Hardin says and I follow him to the door and he grabs my face kissing me "I love you"he mumbles "Hardin ..I love you"I say as he pulls away if I didn't have the baby I would leave right now with him I don't want him to be alone

"did he say anything"Trish startled me "no there just trying to get there as quickly as they can"I tell her

"Oh god I hope Ken is ok"she says sitting down on the couch and Emery starts to cry "Darling don't cry"Trish try's to soothe her but she won't stop "shhh come here baby"I take her from her arms "now now your ok"I gently rock her back and forth "I'm just going to go to the bathroom"Trish excuses her self

Hardin

We are only 3 hours into the flight and I just can't sit still the last I heard they where taken Ken in for surgery but than we had to board so know I don't know what the fuck is going on "you ok your leg is shaking like crazy"Landon says "just nerves"I take my phone out and open my camera roll and look through photos of Tessa and Emery to calm myself god I just wish both of them where here right now I smile to myself looking at my baby she has grown so much in the last month

After a very long flight we finally land in Washington we get a cab straight to the hospital I have an uneasy feeling in me that I just can't shake "Landon Hardin"Karen runs up to us she looks a mess "I'm so glad yous are here"she says and Landon wraps his arm around hers "I am to mom"he says "both of you"she turns to us "before you..you go in there just don't get a shock ok"she says and we both nod our heads and we get outside the room and Karen opens the door and we go inside "he still hasn't woken yet but the doctors said to talk to him"Karen says taken Ken's hand "Hunny Landon and Hardin are here to visit you"she rubs his hand he has all differnt tubes coming out of him and I can see his face is black and blue "I'm going out for some fresh air"I turn and walk out of the room

I don't want to see him looking like that "Hardin"I hear Karen's voice follow me and I try to walk faster but she catches up "Hardin wait"she says and I stop turning around "are you ok"

"Ye I'm fine"

"It's ok not to be let's get coffee"she says and we go to the small cafe I don't know why I used to be such a bitch to Karen she is one of the nicest people I have ever met "why did you leave so quickly"

"I don't want to talk about it"I tell her and she nods knowing what I mean and she changes the subject "How is Emery and Tessa doing I can't wait to see her again"

"Emery is great she is growing a lot"I smile to myself "And Tessa she is an amazing mum honestly she was ment for this"I tell Karen and she smiles "how is Abby doing"

"Well she's 4 now and she has a big attitude she is definitely a daddy's girl"she laughs and than stops and her eyes start to tear and I wrap my arms around her "she is so young Hardin she can't not have a father"she tries her best not to cry and she pulls back "sorry"she dabs under her eyes "Karen it's ok"

"I'm going to go back down do you want to come"

"Umm I'm going to go back to the house if that's ok"

"Of course it is"she hugs me before walking of and I leave to get a cab I just can't sit there looking at Ken that way I don't know if that is me been selfish or not .I make it back to there house and Abby runs out to me "Hardin your back"she jumps up onto me "did you bring me a present"

"Maybe in my suitcase"I tease her "open it open it"she says and I take the bar of chocolate I got in the airport "yay chocolate"she grabs it from me "thank you thank you"she says opening the wrapper as quickly as she can "Hardin"I hear a familiar voice say "Lilian hi"I say ad she gives me a hug "how is Tessa and the baby"

"Doing great both of them"

"Ohh so exciting I can't wait to meet her"she claps her hands together "Abby I think it's time for you to go to bed"

"Noooo"she stomps her little foot "Abby listen to Lilian"

"I want Hardin to bring me"

"Me are you sure"I say to her and she nods "Fine I'll bring you"I say and I lift her up "I'll be in the kitchen if you need me"Lilian says and I bring Abby upstairs "this is my bedroom"she wiggles out of my arms and onto her bed "jumpy jumpy"

"How about we sit"I try sit her down and she just laughs "ok I'll sit"she plops down and I lift her duvet covers over her "where is mommy and daddy"she asks me with her big brown eyes staring at me "there just gone out "where they have been gone all day and I like daddy to read me a story"

"They should be back soon"

"You promise"she lifts her pinky up "I promise now get a good night sleep"I say to her turning of the light "can you hold me hand daddy holds my hand while I go sleepy"she says and I sit beside her
taking her hand  and she starts to fall asleep and I get a notification
