Our Little Family - Miles Wood [With His Girls]
From the author, 👢 anon: Hey guys, we have another little wood family update. This takes a turn. I hope you guys like it.
"Babe, can we talk ?" You ask Miles, as he comes from practice. Miles is a little worried but he tries not to show you. "Yeah, can I just change and say hi to our baby ?" You smile nodding because he can. 
After changing, loving on your girl a little, Miles sits down beside you. You pout asking where your kiss is. Miles giggles and leans to kiss you. Yeah, now it's better. 
"Do you still want to get married ?" You ask him, Miles starts to panic because things are going well. So he doesn't understand. "Yes I do, you don't?" 
You chuckle. "I do, I just want to know so we can set a date and the size of our wedding." Miles relaxes as you play with his ring finger. "Got to show people that you're off the market." Yeah, he likes that a lot. 
You show him your ideas to see what he wants, if he likes them or not. He's helping, that's for sure. You guys settle on a few things. Still not knowing the size of the wedding. That kind of worries you. But you just keep going. Once you guys have a path to go, you guys decide to rest.
Miles' birthday was awesome. There wasn't a better way to spend it. All the family together. Lily had a blast. You had to give your present to him too. But that's later in the night. You climb him like a tree and let him destroy you.
Best present he could get. 
Then, the season started so things got a little crazy. Lily misses him like hell when he's on the road. But you guys are working on it. 
This road trip something is off. You can feel it. It's one of the biggest road trips so far. It's going to be hell. As the days go by, Lily starts to take a bad turn, you don't know what it's happening and you're scared, but she is not feeling well.
One night you wake to her screaming, it's the first time you hear that cry. You panicked, but then remember you're alone so you need to be in full, mom mode. You rush to her nursery. She has a fever.
You take a deep breath to clear your mind, so you can think straight. First things first, you have to change yourself and then try to lower her fever. 
When nothing you know works, she begins to wheeze a little, and that's when you decide to take her to the hospital. Grabbing everything you need in your way. Trying to calm her in the process. Before starting to drive the car, you text Miles. 
Taking Lily to the hospital. I'lll call you when I have a diagnosis. 
On your way to the hospital you call Lily's doctor to meet you there. Thankfully, she's there when you get inside with a crying Lily. They take Lily to the exam room. You're so nervous watching them work on your baby. You step aside to let the doctors work.
Seeing them poking your daughter makes you want to scream and protect her. In the middle of the craziness, Miles is calling you. You see yourself in the reflection of your scream. You look like shit, but knowing your fiance, he's probably freaking out. So you need to be the strong one here, event if you're pretending.
"Baby, what 's happening with her ?" Miles blurts out. You can hear him pacing and losing his mind. 
"I don't know, they're still working on her. They'll take her for some tests, they did the blood work. So we are still waiting." You're surprised with how calm and secure your voice is, even if you're shaking. 
He still has two more days of his road trip, before he can get home to you both. Miles is asking tons of questions and you can't give him the answers because you don't know. 
They start to move Lily, you tell Miles that you need to go and will update him as soon as you can. You end the call and tell the doctor that you're going with them. You're going to be out of their way, but you need to be close to your baby.
She doesn't look like your baby, it breaks your heart. You should have done a better job taking care of her. Lily will have to be admitted and stay a few days in the hospital. So now you need to tell that to your worried fiance. 
She's laying down in bed, with the IV in her little hand. She lost all her color. You take a deep breath before pressing Miles' contact. You call him, because you don't trust yourself if he sees you on FaceTime.
You explain that she has RSV, that she needs to stay a couple days in the hospital. You can hear Miles trying to find a solution. You tell him what hospital you guys are, but since she's admitted, he can come tomorrow after the game. You know he's not going to find a plane ticket right now. 
You want him there, but there isn't much he can do right now. Miles asks more questions about what Lily has, you try to explain the best you can, but the virus is new to you. He abruptly says that he'll work something out and let you know the plan. Then he ends the call.
Looking at the screen of your phone, you realize that he didn't even ask how you're doing. You clear a tear that is about to stream down your cheek. 
You bring the chair close to Lily's bed. You sit, laying your head on the bed holding her hand. "I'm sorry sweetheart, I should have done a better job." A couple minutes later she squeezes your finger. It brings a soft smile to your lips. 
When Lily lets your finger go, you go to the nurse station to let them know that her dad is going to come. You just don't know when. 
You can't sleep, basically watch her sleep. Making sure that she's breathing, you watch the nurses come and go. They ask if you need anything, you shake your head. You just need her to be okay. 
Miles gets there in the middle of the morning. She just went through some tests and now she's resting again. He goes straight to her bed, kissing her head. He's so worried. You say hey softly, he follows your voice, but doesn't reply. He looks at Lily again. You watch him, yeah he is upset with you because she is sick.
You bite your bottom lip, watching him. Almost an hour after he's there, her doctor comes in and explains the situation and where Lily is with her recent tests. She will need to stay at least a few more hours.
"You should go home, I'll stay with her." Miles says it's not a big deal. "Thanks, but no. I'm staying here until she's home." You're not going home without her.
You step outside to call his mom and update her. The next few hours are the coldest in your life. Miles and you barely speak.
He goes to get the food that he ordered, he's hungry and you should eat too. Even if you said you didn't want to. He's on his way back to her room with the food. 
He's about to get inside when he hears you asking the nurse, if you could have done something different. What breaks him from his guilt trip is hearing your voice breaking when you ask if it was your fault that your daughter got sick. 
The nurse assures you that it's not your fault and it's something that happens with babies. "You can't blame yourself for something that 's out of your control." She assures you that beside the RSV, Lily is a very healthy baby girl. 
It breaks Miles' heart hearing that. He feels so guilty for not being there to help you with Lily. He gets inside the room, putting the food aside, rushes to you and brings you into his arms for a hug. 
You sigh, feeling his big arms around you, that's what you needed since the middle of the night. Be in his arms. You cling to his shirt. Miles kisses your head. "I'm sorry, it wasn't fair to you the way that I was acting. I feel guilty, I want to be here with you guys." You nod, because you can't really speak. 
"You're doing such a good job with her, babe. We're so lucky to have you in our lives."
That's what you needed since the moment he walked through that door this morning. You're doing the best that you can to keep it together. You didn't eat today and have barely slept. All you want is for your baby to be okay again. 
Miles says that he still thinks you should go home, that's a huge no from you. Then he insists for you to eat something. At first you don't want to eat. He's getting a little frustrated there.
"Babe, if you don't eat you're going to get sick and you can't get sick. You can't take care of our baby. So you need to eat something." Miles says with a serious voice. You nod and move to the table where the food is. You eat slowly watching Lily in her bed. 
Meanwhile, Miles is watching the game, the one that he was supposed to be playing. You can see in his eyes, he wanted to be there. 
"I'm sorry, you should be playing with your teammates." You say to him softly. "Nope, I'm right where I am supposed to be with my girls." He squeezed your hand as you nod.
