Cole sighed, leaning down to kiss me again. I swear, I was going to give this man a fucking heart attack one day.

Iglanced up as Cole came back into my room. I was at the hospital closer to home, and Cole had rarely left me alone since I’d been admitted. The only time I was alone in the room was when Cole went to get something to eat from the cafeteria or something of the sort. If he had to leave the hospital, he made someone stay with me, and usually, that someone was Brian.
But I had been in this place for two weeks now, and I was fucking sick of being here. I was rarely let up to go walk, and I was starting to get really pissed off and restless.
“Find a doctor and find out when I can fucking go home,” I snapped at Cole as soon as he walked into my room, freshly showered.
He smirked at me. “Hello to you, too.”
“I’m serious,” I whined. “I’m tired of being in the hospital. I can’t do anything. I bet if they didn’t have to let me up to go piss, they wouldn’t even do that. I want to go home,” I complained.
Cole sighed. “It’s best for you and our baby. You have to remember that,” he said gently, trying to reason with me.
I wasn’t beyond making deals with him and the doctor at this point. I was tired of staring at the same white walls all of the time. I was tired of doing nothing but watching tv and lying down. I needed to go back home.
“Cole, I’ll deal with a wheelchair. I just want to go home.”
His eyes widened in surprise. “You’ll seriously sit in a wheel chair for the rest of your pregnancy?” he asked, almost as if he didn’t believe me.
I nodded, meaning it from the bottom of my heart. “Yes,” I told him desperately. “Please, Cole, I just want to go home.”
He sighed and nodded before planting a soft kiss on my lips. “I’ll go find the doctor.”
He left the room, and I did the childish thing of crossing my fingers in my lap, hoping to get my way. I desperately wanted to go home. I was tired of sitting there, missing out on everything back at the clubhouse. It sucked not being physically at the meetings and only being able to make decisions through the phone. I was ready to be back in my own space.
Dr. Kline came into the room followed by Cole. He checked my vitals and the machine monitoring the baby and nodded. “You have to stay in a wheelchair if you’re not in bed, Amelia,” he told me sternly. “You don’t get to ride your bike. It’s important that you do not get stressed out.” He looked at me, giving me a stern look. “If you end up in this hospital again, Amelia, I will not allow you to go back home until you deliver this baby, understand?”
I nodded. “Trust me, I’m going to do everything possible not to come back here.” And I meant that.
He nodded and unhooked me from the machine. After he left the room, Cole helped me into my clothes. A nurse came in with a wheelchair a minute later. “I assume you’ve already paid for it?” she asked me.
I looked at Cole for confirmation only to see that he was already nodding at the nurse. “Yeah; it’s paid for.”
She brought it over, and I sat down in it, sighing in relief. I wasn’t exactly happy about the wheelchair, but it was better than being stuck in the fucking hospital all the time.
Cole pushed me out of the hospital and out to his truck. When we got to the clubhouse, Cole pushed me inside. Brian grinned at me. “Finally got out, huh?”
I nodded, smiling. “I can’t ride until after I have the baby, but it’s nice to be back here around all of you fuckers.”
Travis and Katie came out of the living area and smiled when they saw me. “Good to have you back here,” Travis told me, gripping my shoulder as he walked past.
I nodded and looked up at Cole. “Call church,” I told him.
“Everyone in the chapel!” Cole hollered.
He wheeled me into the room and up to my spot at the table. “Look at that belly,” one of the guys said. “Getting big there, aren’t you, Amelia?”
I rolled my eyes at him. “I’ll be glad when it’s over so that I can finally start riding again,” I retorted.
I loved my kid, don’t get me wrong, but I really missed being able to ride my bike and getting involved in club retaliation. I missed it all.
“You won’t want to do anything for a while,” Katie said, coming into the room and taking a seat. “Especially when you’ll be getting up every two hours to feed the baby.”
I shrugged. “I’ll be alright.”
When everyone was in their seats, Cole started the meeting. “Amelia, you’re the one who wanted the meeting, so what’s up?” he asked me, arching an eyebrow.
