Chapter Text
Today is probably one of the worst days of my life, and all I want to do is go home, hide under my covers, eat an entire cake, and then regret it. And why is this the worst day of my life? Well, the international cello competition is today, and I am the epitome of a nervous wreck.
Not only that, but I've been sick for a few weeks and have been trying my best to hide it because if my beloved husband found out, I'd be bedridden until I was cleared for good health.
Speaking of said husband, I decided to call him. Unfortunately, on one of the worst days of my life, he had to go for a business conference that he had assured me he could miss, but I told him to go and I would be fine.I'm not going to lie, it sparked a week-long dispute, but in the end, Eli left off with Uncle Aiden.
Eli did promise me the second he got back he would make it up to me and I am looking forward to “ Hello and good morning to you mrs.king” Eli says picking up on the first ring.
“Hello to you dear husband I wasn't bothering you was I “ ?
Eli narrows his eyes into the camera looking as if he's writing here “ no Ava you could never bother me the last of the meetings just wrapped up and I was heading to bed I was just about to call you” Eli explains .
I smile happily. My nervousness seems to vanish as I talk to Eli “ how is uncle Aiden “ I ask Eli rolls his eyes and mutters something I can't hear before answering fine and getting on his last never I laugh at Eli and uncle Aiden attics. Even though the two would die on a hill that they are different they are so alike in so many ways that's something me and aunt Elsa constantly joke about.
A full thirty minutes pass by before I hear a knock on the door. A staff member let me have five minutes before my call “ well I guess its time” I say feeling all nervousness and panic flood back “ Ava breath “ Eli says calmly.
And I do “okay now dont over think it you will be fine okay “ he says and I only nod “ words Ava “.
“I understand,” I whisper.
“Good now I wish you the best of of luck and I love you “
“I love you too “ I say before hanging up the phone “ Mrs. King you in two please start heading to the stage”.
I nodded and say a simple thank you to the staff “ alright Ava you got this it'll be just like any other time “ I say giving myself words of encourage ment as look into the mirror but a a rise I am hit with a subdued wave of nausea as faint but strong sent of collen fills mt nose “ okay that was wired “ I give myself a second before head off to stage.
The second im on stage everything honestly is a complete blur. One second I am sitting down next. I heard words of encouragement from ELi in the back of my mind but when I start to play everything is completely blank.
I don't come too again until I hear my name being called “ Congratulations Mrs. Ava King” the announcer says I almost shout what in response as I am handed my trophy “ any words “ the announcer asks as he passes me the mic.
“Umm thank you truly thank you to everyone who came and as everyone did an amazing job today thanks to my family and to my husband who always shows my love and support “ I say coming up with something kind on the sport as I am still shocked that I actually want.
As I walk off stage I am greeted by my sister Ariella who is hold a big bouquet of my favorite flowers “ congrats Avs I knew would do a amazing as always “ I smile brightly but as she steps forward and I catch a whiff of flower sent my stomach turns and I vomit into the nearest trash can “ Oh my god Ava are you alright “ Ariella yells as she rushes over to me to but the closer flowers are to me the more I vomit.
“Oh my do I need to call Eli “ she frantically
“No no I fine I just haven't been feeling well I think its time I go the hospital “ I say only earning a more worried look from my sister “ Im fine Ari and please dont call Eli the last thing I need is for Eli rushing back and worrying over me please”
“Ava “ she wines
“Please Ariella “ “
Ariella frowns “ fine I wont call Eli but if he finds out I am blaming you “
I smile brightly before hugging her tightly “ thank you I totally own you one”
“Yeah yeah “ she says.
Always being in a hospital setting is something I am very familiar with, but I still don't like going there and try to avoid it as much as possible. "Alright Mrs. King, the doctor will be in soon," the nurse says as she enters my room, giving a reassuring smile. I smile back and give a brief nod before she leaves the room.
I fall back on the bed and shut my eyes, "Well, if it isn't Ava King," my eyes snap open at the sound of a familiar voice.Of Killian Carson is a sociopath who is practically the American counterpart of Landon, but with black hair and dark ocean eyes, we both on two very opposite of the pole but unfortunately he is happily married to my dearest friend Glyndon. What she sees in a lunatic like Killian Carson Personally, I will never know, but as long as she is happy, I am happy.
“What are you doing here “ I aks
Killian gives me a blank expression before slightly tilting his head “ last time I checked I work here and I am a doctor why do all you all do this as if you don't know what I went to school for “ Killian says I roll my eyes.
“ Well I would like to request another doctor “
“ Sorry but I'm the only one available right now, the others are kind of held up with a car crash incident and the only other doctor is a complete newbie “ Killian says.
“Well I gadly take noobie than you no offense “
Killian only gives me a wicked smirk before looking back then back at me “ unfortunately the noobie just stabbed himself with scalpel so your stuck with me “ he says
I almost didn't believe Killian and was gonna call him out on his bullshit until I saw the doctor being carried away on bed. I groan dramatically as fine fall back onto the bed “fine I guess “ Killain only nodded before taking seat “ so what brings you hear today “ he ask.
“ I just haven't been feeling well the last couple of weeks I was just thinking it was stomach bug until after my competition I kept feeling nauseous and throwing up “ Killian nodded as he looks me up and down “ has your food diet changed in any way “ he ask
“No I really have been able to stomach anything “
Killian only nods as I explain all the symptoms I have been feeling “ okay I gonna do an ultra sound to have a look at you stomach “ he says as gets up “also congrats by the way”
“What “
“You won your competition today right? I spoke with Glyndon who was told by Ariella told everyone you won “ Killain says.
A blush and smile appears “ thank you Killain. “
He just nodded before leaving. "Well, she is fast." I giggled to myself. I hadn't looked at my phone since I arrived at the hospital, which means I've probably have a bunch of comigrations messages from everyone.
A few minutes later, Killian and the nurse enter the room. I can't help but notice the hearts she is making at Killian. I feel wrath coursing through my veins as I gaze at the two. "Here you go, Doctor Killian," the nurse says, which is far too flirtatious. I may not feel good, but I swear if Killian is doing anything with this bitch, I am ready to commit murder.
“Alright I got it “ Killian says
The nurse smiles “ Call me if you need anything ‘ she says happily before winking and leaving the room "Killian I swear if you plan on hurting Glyn I will do things far worse than what Uncle Levi or Landon will do to you” I say as glaring dodgers at him.
Killian scoffs as he takes a seat “ please don't insult me Ava my eyes are for Glyndon only I would rather be tied up and held in room like Gareth filled with picture of Nico’s kolya then cheat on Glyndon “
I look at Killian as I really dont know how nor want to process what he just said “ anyway I need to lift your shirt “ .
“Hell the fuck no have you lost you dam mind “ I shout because he got another thing coming if he thinks I am gonna lift my shirt Killain mutter something before pointing at the mahince“ I need to see you stomach “ he grits out.
“Oh right my bad “ I say as relaxation hits me Killain doesn't say anything as presses the tool on my stomach a couple minutes pass as watch Killain look at the screen then final to me “ well Avs congrats you're pregnant” .
I swear I almost faint “what did you just say “ ?
“You are pregnant not only that but with triplets”
“Did you just say triplets “ I say still trying to come to terms that I am pregnant not only with one baby but three babies “ Killain nods pointing at the three large dots on screen “ I see Eli really wanted to keep that king name alive “ Killian says.
But I drown him out as I am still on the triplets' part and that's when I feel everything left inside rise up and puke everywhere even a little on Killain who is now giving me the most irritated and disgusted look I have ever seen.
“Sorry I did not mean too “ I says as continuously apologize
Killain take in a shape breath as he closes muttering something in russian I think before he looks “ its fine”.
“Look Killian you can't tell anyone”
“Um excuse me” he says as he furries his eyes to look at me.
“You can't tell anyone like Glyndon or Eli especially Eli it would ruin him if he doesn't hear it from me and it makes it worse already you know before everyone else so please keep this between us “
Killain looks at me even more annoyed than before nodding “ I guess now can you do me a favor and leave” .
I smile “ thank thank Killain I owe you one”
