Alex's POV I was woken up by Jacks phone ringing. Him and Rowan was dead to the world so I quietly sat up and reached over them and saw it was the hospital calling. "Hello?" I yawned and lead back down and started to mess with Rowans hair. "Hello is this Mr Barakat?" The voice asked. "I'm his other half but if it concerns Skylar then you can speak to me." I said. "Okay, well I'm just phoning you to say that Skylar isn't doing to good right now." The voice said. I stopped what I was doing and sat up. "What do you mean she's not doing so good?" I asked and got out of bed and pulled a pair of pajamas bottoms on and pulled a hoodie on. "The medication we have given here isn't working and it was the last chance for us to be able to save her limbs or maybe even herself." They said. "Wait, my daughter is dying?" I asked and stopped in my tracks. "There's no easy way on saying this Sir but she might be." The voice said sympathicly. "No! She can't, try something else!" I said and walked over to Jack and shook his hard. "Babe, wake up something is wrong with Sky." I said on the verge of tears. Jack didn't wake up. "Jack wake up!" I sniffed and felt some tears roll down my face. Jack opened his eyes and looked at me. Once he saw I was crying he sat up. "Baby what wrong?" He asked. "They said Sky could be dying Jack." I sobbed and Jack pulled me to his chest. "She won't go anywhere babe okay. She won't." He said quietly and kissed the top of my head. I pulled away from him and got up. "Where you going?" He asked. "She needs me Jack, I can't stay here while she could be dying! She need her dad." I said but it came out like a blupering mess. Jack gormout of bed and did the same as me and picked Rowan up and handed him to me. "Put him with Aid and meet me downstairs." He said and walked out the room.
I went to Aidan's room and quietly opened the door. She was still up. "What you still doing up?" I sniffed. "Can't sleep. Why you crying dad?" She asked and looked at me. "Me and pa need to go back to the hospital. Can Row sleep with you?" I asked. She nodded and got up and took Rowan from me. "It's bad isn't it?" She asked. "I don't know Aid." I said and kissed her forehead and walked out the room and met Jack downstairs and we went to the hospital.
We pretty much ran to the children's ward and went straight to where Skys room was. She wasn't in there. "Where is she?" I asked and looked round. Jack was looking around. "Where's my baby?" I asked . Skys doctor walked over to us. "You can't see her right now." He said calmly. "But she needs us." Jack said. "She is seriously poorly and she needs no visitors." He said. "You can't fucking stop me seeing my baby!" I said loudly and moved but Jack caught hold of my arm and pulled me back. "I can and I will sir." He said. "You can't do that! She our child and you can't stop us from seeing her!" I shouted. "You need to calm down sir before you can go anywhere near her." He said seriously. "I will calm down when I see my baby." I growled. "I'm sorry Sir but I can't allow you too see her." He said and walked off. "You think your fucking God's gift don't you!" I shouted. He stopped and looked at me. "Alex don't get us kicked out." Jack said. "He needs to fucking hear it!" I snapped. "You think you can walk around this fucking hospital and everyone around you will bow down at your fucking feet! You think you do such a amazing job! Well your fucking shit! Why can't you make our child better!?" I shouted with tears falling down my face. "I worked hard to get where I am today. I can't make your child better because I don't have a clue what is wrong with her!" He said. "Try harder then!" I said. "Look, why don't you take your husband to the cafe and cool off a little. Then maybe I might let you see your daughter." He said to Jack and walked off. "Come on babe." Jack said quietly and gently pulled me away and we went to the cafe. "He's trying as hard as he can Lex." Jack said as we was sat having a coffee. "It's not hard enough." I said quietly trying to calm down. Jack sighed. "What we gonna do if she does die?" He asked quietly. I looked down. "I dunno Jack. I really don't know." I whispered.
It took me 3 hours to be calm enough to walk back to the children's ward. Skys doctor was at the front desk. "I'm sorry for how I acted. I have this problem and I can't control my anger sometimes." I said quietly. "It's fine I forgive you." He smiled. "Can we see our daughter now?" Jack asked quietly. "You may. But I need to speak with you first." He said. I grabbed hold of Jacks hand and held it tightly. "Come with me and we'll speak in private." He said and walked off and we followed. We got to Skys room and I went over and checked her over. Something inside me told me this wasn't going to be the ending I wanted. "Take a seat." The doctor said and me and Jack sat down and the doctor sat in front of us. "I'm afraid it isn't good news." He said quietly. It was Jacks turn to grab my hand. I looked at him and smiled a little and then looked back at the doctor. "We did some tests and it showed that Sky didn't have meningitis." He said. "Then what does she have?" I asked. "Your daughter has something very aggressive but we don't know what." He said. "She can't, how do you explain the rash, and all the symptoms which was leading to meningitis." Jack said and sat forward. "Thats something I really can't explain." The doctor said. "So this was my fault then? If I just brought her in sooner and kept an eye on her and all that she wouldn't be like this." I said. "Sir, this isn't your fault. You are a good parent, and this is something that even people who are trained to look out for this didn't see it." He said. "But I'm not a good parent though, if I was then I would off seen something. My daughter wouldn't be dying if I was a good parent." I said and tears slowly began to fall. "How long?" Jack sniffed. "I'd say she hasn't got long sir." He said quietly. Jack got up and kissednthe top of my head and walked out the room. I put my feet on the seat and hugged my knees and rolled my sleeves up. I didn't think about the bandage on my arm from eariler. "But if I may say one thing sir." The doctor said and I looked at him. "Don't beat yourself up, dint blame yourself and the most importantly don't cut yourself." He said seriously. I looked at my arm and rolled the sleeve down. "Your family needs you now. You have your other beautiful children to look after. I know this is going to be hard for you and your family, but sometimes things aren't meant to be. You have to stay strong and get through this. If not for yourself then for your family and Sky." He said. I sniffed. "I need to find my husband." I said quietly and got up. "Mr Barakat." He said and I stopped and looked at him. "I am truly sorry that I can't do anything." He said. "I forgive you." I whispered and walked out the room and went looking for Jack.
I found Jack outside sat on the floor. "Babe?" I said quietly and Jack looked up and saw it was me and he got up and we hugged each other and we both just started to cry. I was the first one to pull back and looked at Jack. He rarely cried as it was me who was the emotional one. "I hate it when you cry because your meant to be the strong one." I sniffed. "She really going to die Lex?" He sobbed. I wiped a few tears away and made him look at me. I nodded. "Yeah, yeah she is Jack." I said quietly and looked down and I felt a new set of tears fall. "But she has so much to live for." He said. "I know babe, but.. I dunno." I sniffed. "Why dint you go and see her and I'll tell the kids." I said quietly. He nodded and I pulled him into a hug. "I love you Jack." I whispered. "I love you too." He said quietly and looked at me and kissed him. "I'll be with in a bit." I said and Jack nodded and walked off. I got my phone and rung Seth. After the 8th ring he answered. "Someone better be dying." He muttered. I sniffed. "Sky is Seth." I said and a sobbed escaped my lips. "What?" He asked suddenly waking up. "She dying Seth and I can't nothing." I sobbed loudly. "How?" He asked. "It wasn't what the doctors thought it was something worse and she isn't going to make it and I dunno what to do." I said with my voice cracking. "Dad you need to calm down, where's pa?" He said. "He's not coping too good so he's with Sky while I phone you and tell you what's happening." I sniffed. "Do you want me to wake Ri and Aid up so we can come down?" He asked. "I don't want you too but if you want to then you can." I said quietly. "I won't bring Aid with me but I'll bring Ri." He said. "Okay." I whispered. "I'll see you soon. Love you." He said. "Love you too." I whispered and hung up. I didn't want to go indoors so I sat on the floor where I was and literally cried my eyes out.
I don't know how long I was out here for but I heard someone walk over to me. "Dad, what you doing out here. Your gonna freeze to death." Riley said and put an arm under my arm one side and Seth the other side and walked me inside. The nurses came rushing over. "Get the fuck away from him. You didn't give a shit when he was sat outside in the freezing cold so why should you give a shit now!" Riley said loudly. They backed off and we went to Skys room. Once we got in there Jack looked at me and put Sky back in her cot. "Babe where have you been!?" He asked seriously. "Sat outside in the freezing cold, we literally just found him as we got here." Seth said and took his Jacket off and put it over my shoulders. "Baby I'm sorry I didn't find you I thought you went for a walk to clear your head, if I'd known I would of got you!." Jack said and hugged me. I returned his hug but didn't say anything. Jack pulled back and looked at me. He kissed me which I returned ed and I walked over to Sky and picked her up and held her close to me. "Why don't we leave him too it." Riley said and got hold of Seth's hand and took him out the room with Jack following.
Once I was alone I just started to cry again. "I love you Sky. Don't ever forget it. Okay, I love you more than my own life. That goes to everyone at home. Baby I'm sorry I left you for all them months. I didn't want to but I had to. I couldn't look after you, not while I was having a mental breakdown it wouldn't of been fair on your or Rowan." I sobbed and looked at her. "But you won't be alone, you'll be with Bobby, Ellie and Freddie. You don't know them but they where the babies which I never got a chance too meet but you will and when you do I want you to give them a big hug and kiss from me and da." I sniffed and I heard the door open and I looked at saw Jack. "I was just telling her about Ellie and Freddie." I sniffed again and wiped the tears from my face. Jack never knew about Bobby as he was my first pregancy but i lost him when i was 9 weeks. Jack gave me a sad smile. He came over and sat on the arm of the chair. "This isn't fair." Jack said quietly and stroked Skys hair. "One thing I've learnt is that nothing is fair." I said quietly. "She could of been the next big thing you know." He said. "I know, but what's happening must be a cruel joke." I said. "Like with the miscarriages?" He asked quietly. I looked down. "Yeah." I whispered and Jack pulled me to his side and kissed the top of my head. The door opened again and Seth and Riley came in. Me and Jack got up and they both walked over and Seth took Sky from me. I kissed the top of her head and walked out the room and when I got outside the room I lent against the wall and slid down it. Jack came out and joined me.
"Remember when I first became friends with you?" Jack asked. I smiled. "How coukld I forget?" I chuxkled and looked at him. "What did I bring you to bribe ypou into being my friend?" He asked. "You brought me a strawberry lolly and some other sweets." I said. Jack smiled wide. "Okay I've got one for you. On your 21st, other than great sex and that what else did I get you and what did I say?" I asked. Jack thought about it. "You got me a promise ring and you told me that I would always have your heart and that I was your only one." He said. I smiled and cuddled into his side. "I feel guilty about not letting Aid come." I said quietly. "Don't be because I made of called her and she should be here in a second." He said. I looked at him. Sure enough Aidan walked round the corner. "Where is she?" She asked still in her pjs. "In here." Jack said and she walked in the room and shut the door behind her. "Still think she should of kept that baby." Jack said quietly. "Her choice, she wanted nothing to do with Oli and I'm glad she made the grown up choice." I said. Jack smiled and I rested my head on his shoulder and I felt my eyes getting heavy and before I knew it I was asleep.

Notes

I feel bad and guilty for doing this but I needed something which would affect everyone and doing this was the only thing I could think off... Oops...
