She made sure they let him come in the ambulance as well, starting to feel really lightheaded “hey, look at me, I’m gonna be fine.” She promised. “It’s a miscarriage, I didn’t know I was pregnant but it’s okay, call your abuela and get her to come pick you up or ask her to come sit with you okay?” She coaxed give his hand a reassuring squeeze. She was devastated by this but at the same time she wanted to make sure Carlos wasn’t panicking.

Ernie grabbed him the moment he walked off the stage. “Hey, you’ve got about five missed calls from Carlos.” He told him while they grabbed his stuff and headed back to get their taxi to the hotel.

“Well you tell me next time that happens okay pumpkin?” He murmured, calling for maxto get to the car and finally took his family home, letting Ana go play while he got the barbecue started. “Ana said her friends mom is always asking her about me.” He muttered slipping an arm
Around max.

Max frowned some and shook her head a bit while she watched their daughter run with the dogs "Yeah I am starting to get a little creeped out, she kept bringing you up in our conversation." She murmured kissing him gently

Pedro frowned when heard his voicemails and quickly called Carlos back "Carlos?! Whats going on? Where are you?" He asked frantically listening to him explain "I will be there as soon as I can." He muttered before looking at Ernie "Get me the mext flight out of here IMMEDIATELY."

 

[decadent-rider]

He sighed a little, pecking her cheek, "Look, let's not worry about it, I'll be out of here tomorrow for a couple weeks then if it's still a problem when I come home again, we;ll handle it." He told her quietly, keeping her close to his side, swaying with her some.

He frowned answering the phone and explaining what was going on "She said she's gonna be fine but Dad there was so much blood." He mumbled, shaking a little as he was starting to remember things from his childhood that he'd been having nightmares about recently as it was but now he was just straight panicking.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max pouted at the mention of him being gone and gave a small sigh "I really wish you didn't have to go." She said softly as she swayed with him "How long til you wrap up filming?"

Pedro frowned more and gave a heavy sigh "I will be there soon mijo okay? Is your abuela there?" He asked quietly

 

[decadent-rider]

"Not yet, she said she's on her way." He mumbled, barely able to sit still and just wanting to run off. He'd done it once a couple years ago when Pedro had had a small relapse and he'd been getting seizures again. Carlos had panicked and ran away for a full 30 hours before coming home again and it was straight after his Dad hung up that he walked outside and sat down under a tree in the parking lot.

He frowned kissing her head "I know but I got another two months then I'm home for a bit before press tours but a lot of that is over the summer. I was gonna hire a couple extra guys to give Adam a hand and maybe you two can join me, make a stop in Georgia and let you girls pick out an apartment." He suggested to her.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Pedro got there two hours later frowning when he went in seeing Carmen's mother there but Carlos not in sight "Where is Carlos?" He asked worriedly as he sat down next to her

Max smiled softly giving a small nod "That sounds like a good idea and a nicw holiday trip for Ana as well." She said softly before she kissed him gently "I'll go make the sides okay? You finish up the burgers."

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned, giving him a quick hug "I made him go home. He was panicking being here." She told him, "They just told me that she's in a recovery room... I'll head home now you're here... She doesn't like having me around for this any more than she used to." she pointed out, "Call me if you need snything alright?" She assured him and left him to it.

Carmen was awake but just staring at the wall, not even looking up when she heard his voice, only moving when he was sat in front of her. "I didn't even know I was pregnant... I didn't think it would be possible anymore with all the chemo you went through and ... and..." She started shaking then and broke down into sobs, reaching for him.

Jeff nodded smiling some and watched her go, glancing down as he felt something attach to his leg, smiling seeing it was Ana "Hey princess... you gonna be a good girl for mommy while I'm at work?" he asked her, getting the meat turned over.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Pedro gave a small nod and sighed heavily before he went to the room Carmen was in. He frowned softly and held her closw letting a few tears fall "Its gonna be okay baby....I'm so sorry." He whispered softly to her.

Lana frowned some when he mentioned goimg back to work and nodded some "I will Daddy I promise....but why do you have to go? We miss you when you leave." She said giving him big puppy dog eyes

 

[decadent-rider]

She whimpered shaking still and just buried her face into his neck. “Please don’t go tonight.” She begged him quietly. She was still exhausted and really lightheaded from the blood loss and just wanted him there, feeling like she couldn’t breathe a little from how bad she felt about everything.

“Cause I gotta make good money so we can have this farm and enjoy it, so you can start horse riding lessons, have all the puppies.” He smiled. “But you get to come travel with me all summer soon kiddo.” He smiled and kissed her head.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Lana pouted a bit more but gave a small nod "Oh okay Daddy." She said before running off inside to get cleaned up once Max called for her.

Max looked at Jeff as he came in and gave a smile "Hey handsome, just finished up our sides." She said happily before she kissed him gently

Pedro shook his head some "I won't be going anywhere I promise." He said softly to her keeping himself as calm as possible for her but his heart was just as broken at the moment about this.

 

[decadent-rider]

“Nice, burgers are on the table... mmm.... maybe tonight.... we could work real hard on making Ana a little brother.... cause lord knows if we’re travelling with her this summer we won’t get many chances.” He winked at her.

she eventually passed out from exhaustion in his arms, still holding his T-shirt while she slept, frowning every time she felt him move away even if it was just momentarily.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max gave a small laugh and bit her lip some "Yeah we could try." She murmured giving him a soft smile yet. She still hadn't gotten it confirmed by a doctor yet but she was pretty sure that they wouldn't need to keep trying for another child.

Pedro tried to stay by her side all night only getting up to use the restroom here and there. He sighed heavily as he still kept her close before he broke down crying quietly as he thought about the miscarriage.

 

[decadent-rider]

Jeff smiled and pecked her cheek "You don't ound too keen... I thought you said earlier that you wanted another kid?" He asked, feeling a little like he was treading on eggshells, not wanting to piss her off the night before he had to go away again.

Carmen woke up early in the morning, needing the restroom and glanced over at Pedro frowning some and giving his hand a squeeze "Talk to me." She mumbled, sitting up carefully and leaned on him some to get to the bathroom.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max nodded some "No no its fine...I just gotta make sure dinner sits well with me." She explained before kissing him gently "Promise babe I'm good." She murmured before she sat down to eat. She was worried about having a baby with him being gone so much lately especially with the possibility of him getting a role for Walking Dead.

Pedro had been up for a few hours when she woke up and quietly helped her to the bathroom "Its like some fucking sick joke that whatever up there is playing on us." He said quietly shaking his head "Its just not fucking fair to us."

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned, carefully manouvering with the IV stand still so she could sit on the loo, grabbing at his hand and looking at him, "We were never supposed to have kids of our own I guess." She mumbled, "But we were meant to go to Colombia and meet Carlos." She told him seriously, using his help to get back to the bed when they were done. "They'll bring discharge papers soon." She mumbled, reaching for him again "How uh... how did the interview go?" She asked him quietly.

He frowned some but nodded and watched her, starting to worry some if this was a good idea if she was so hesitant. He got the dogs their food before sitting down with his girls to eat, listening to Ana chat about school the whole time

 

[Forever6A7X]

Pedro sighed softly and nodded some "You're right." He said quietly before he led her back to bed "It was good, short but good."

Max ate with her family and smiled widely at the two of them. She got up to bed later that night and smiled seeing an old fling of hers from when she had split with Jeff pop up to follow her on instagram "Oh Kevin, I wonder how he is doing." She murmured clicking on his profile. Their breakup hadnt been messy nor did they hold ill will towards one another.

 

[decadent-rider]

She nodded some and squeezed his hand, "I just wanna get home to Carlos now." she murmured, "You need to still go to England." She told him seriously. "Get all the last of the filming done and then come home and be home for a while." She told him "No more cancelling work trips for home problems."

Jeff got Ana to bed and spent a bit of time with her cause he'd be leaving early before going to bed with Max once she was asleep, frowning seeing who she was looking at "Oh.... No tears this time." He told her, frowning a little at the guy she was scrolling through before going to brush his teeth, coming back to bed a little grumpy

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max closed out of her phone once he had fome back from brushing his teeth "Mmmm you wanna have some fun time?" She asked frowning as he pulled away "Jeff? Babe whats wrong?" She asked softly

Pedro sighed heavily and gave a small nod "We'll get you to him. " he murmured kissing her cheek gently before frowning at the mention of him leaving "My family is my first priority.....I don't want to leave you after this."

 

[decadent-rider]

He grumbled incoherently and crossed his arms, pouting at the bed sheets "Maybe I should hit the gym first before you sleep with me." He muttered

She shook her head "We will be okay but this is your first big project since being sick... I want this to go well for you." She told him seriously, "We will be okay." She promised him, giving his hand a squeeze.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max raised an eyebrow and frowned some more "Huh? Why would you need to do that? Jeff look at me." She said making him roll over and look at her "Whats wrong?"

Pedro gave a heavy sigh and nodded softly before kissing her lovingly right before the nurse came in with her discharge papers.

 

[decadent-rider]

"Maybe I should time travel too." He muttered, looking over at her "I can't compete with that shit." He muttered, gesturing to her phone and meaing the guy she'd been looking at pictures of "If that's what you want... I can't give that to you. Shit babe I'm pushing 50 almost." He muttered frowning and just feeling grumpy and insecure about it. It was always in the back of his mind that Max was ten years younger and was still so beautiful where he had gone grey over the eight years he'd known her and now more than ever people made remarks about it.

She got everything signed off, thanking her for the scrubs she was given to put on and eventually was able to go home with Pedro, leaning on him some in the back of the taxi until they got home and she headed inside, finding Carlos in the kitchen and went over to give him a hug "Hey, you doing okay sweetheart?" She asked quietly having been more worried about him last night but she'd forgotten to tell Pedro that their bed was still covered in blood.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max frowned as she listened to him and made him look at her "Hey stop that, stop it now. I love you so much Jeff. Ever since I saw you on Grey's Anatomy I knew you were the most handsome man I had ever seen. If I wanted that I would go get it, but I don't I want YOU. You are the man I wanted to grow old with. For god sake Jeff I'm most likely carrying your child right now!" She exclaimed giving a small laugh putting his hand to her stomach "I could care less about our age difference or your body type. I also happen to love your squish, its very nice to cuddle."

Pedro made his way up to the bed and frowned seeing the dried blood giving a heavy sigh. He quickly took off the sheets seeing that it jad soaked to the mattress. He glanced at Carmen as she came into the room "I'll get a mattress ordered and here by tomorrow."

 

[decadent-rider]

She frowned a little and swallowed back tears but nodded and frowned, squeezing his shoulder and went to get changed into comfier clothes. "He's a little freaked but he's better now that we're both home." She mumbled. "I'm a little worried though. He's been having so many nightmares lately." She frowned some, laying a few towels on the bed just so she didn't have to look at it, leaning back into Pedro when she felt his arms go around her.

He frowned some and watched her, listening intently up until she mentioned she might be pregnant "Hold up, back up a sec..... You're already pregnant?! Why didn't you say anything before?!" He grinned at her. "Babe make an apointment, get confirmation already." He smiled, pulling her in close.

 

[Forever6A7X]

Max laughed lightly and smiled wide "I took the test the day you returned....I was waiting to tell you until my appointment next week." She explained before she kissed him lovingly "I love you Jeffrey Dean, don't you ever think I dont." She said softly to him

Pedro went over and wrapped his arms around her giving a small sigh "Yeah I'm getting worried about it." He said quietly resting his head on her shoulder swaying softly "I love you beautiful."

 

[decadent-rider]

She smiled some tiredly and leaned her head onto his "Mmm... love you too my little gerbil." She teased him gently, "I'm gonna go lay down, I think Carlos could do with some company." She told him quietly, pecking his cheek.
Carlos was downstairs watching TV with Edgar curled up next to him, "Are you still gonna go to the UK?" He asked him curiously. He was all done with school for now so originally they'd planned for Carlos to join him for the first couple weeks but now he wanted to stay with his mom.

Jeff smiled, pulling her in close "Fuck that, I'll call Dr. Biyardi, get you an appointment for tomorrow. I wanna know before I finish work tomorrow." He smiled, kissing her softly as he turned the light out and lay with her
