Chapter 23: The Return Of Lana Banana and Him Again
Kit was watching Jude rest as both the babies were fine as he felt them move under his hand, turns out they were trying to move around too much. The doctors told him to make sure Jude was to stay out of situations that were stressful and avoidable.
She opened her eyes to smile as she felt her babies moving around.
"Did I lose one of our babies?" Jude asked as a tear rolled down her cheek.
Jude started waking up as Kit held her hand as she looked at him. She smiled, but the feeling of her babies moving around
"No baby, they're perfectly fine right here. You had a blackout from all the stress and Roy's okay. He had a really bad stomach pains due to a stomach ulcer." Kit said as she held his hand.
"Where's Jane and Pepper?" Jude asked as she worried about them.
"They went home as Roy will have his surgery tomorrow, but I have checked on you and him both." Kit said as Jude laid her hand on her stomach as she locked fingers with him, creating a warm spot and she relaxed.
"We have a lot of things to figure out before they get here. I was thinking that I should stay home for a couple of months and then, slowly work my up back to working again." Jude said
"I agree with anything you say, I mean Vivien is just like you and does everything you do." Kit said
"Well, I was thinking maybe a couple of weeks before they're due, I will take maternity leave and work from home until they're born. Vivien usually runs me by all the money and the counting sheets of how many customers we had and everything. Since we got that new coffee place in there, it's been quite a hit." Jude said as she smiled.
"I believe the girls can do anything and with the best boss to train them, then they won't have much to worry about." Kit said
"You think I'm the best boss ever?" Jude asked him as she slowly sat up inches to his face.
"Yes, I do. Matter of fact, I fell for the most gorgeous, stunning, charismatic and intelligent woman that ever lived as you were my boss." Kit said as he pressed a kiss to her lips, feeling the tingling sensation left on their lips.
"Well, if I do take off for awhile. Do you promise to check on them before you come home from work?" Jude asked him.
"I was going to do that anyway." Kit said as she sat back.
"I love you darling, but I don't see us getting out of here tonight." Jude said as she hated hospitals, even being in one scared her.
"I know and maybe tomorrow baby. Just relax and let's just make the best of this." Kit said as Jude wished that she was at home, asleep and safe in Kit's arms.
"I meant what I said, there is going to be a lot of changes made here soon." Jude said as she decided rest was easier to get than eating something a dog would not eat.
"I know and I'm fine with your decisions baby." Kit said as he watched Jude slowly drift off to sleep again.
For the next two hours, Kit watched as Jude slept and was afraid to move just in case she woke up.
The next thing he knew, there was a knock at the door as Vivien stood there with three bags containing clothes and something else.
"How is she?" Vivien asked her.
"She was alert two hours ago and the babies are fine. She has been under a lot of stress lately as to finding someone to replace her before the babies come and she wants to make some changes here soon." Kit said as him and Vivien stared at her resting state.
"Well, I just got back from my first divorce date. Ben brought little miss tag a long of course, but I wish them the best of luck." Vivien said
"I'm sorry Viv." Kit said
"It's alright, I started looking for my own place and have a couple of places in mind, but I want Violet to like it." Vivien said as Jude moved a little.
"She will and maybe this will ease her mind." Kit said as Jude stared at them.
"Hey baby." Jude said as she held out her hand.
"Hey sleepy head." Vivien said as Jude smiled.
"Are my girls at home or they with you?" Jude asked
"They are at home and they will see you tomorrow when Roy goes in for his surgery." Vivien said as Kit seen something out of the corner of his eye.
"Baby, do need anything?" Kit asked her.
"Yes, ice water would be nice." Jude said as he grabbed her cup as he kissed her.
As he walked over to the ice and water machine to get some, someone touched his arm.
"Holy shit Lana." Was all Kit could see as he seen none other than Lana Winters standing there.
"Hey!" Lana hugged him.
"How are you?" Kit asked her as he hugged her.
"Well, a friend of mine is here after she sprained her wrist in a tennis tournament." Lana said
"Ouch!" Kit exclaimed as Lana looked at him.
"What are you doing here?" Lana worried
"Jude had a stress related incident and now, I'm getting her ice water and standing here talking to you." Kit said
"How are the babies?" Lana asked him.
"Fine. They were lucky enough to check her out in time and did an ultrasound to find that both hearts were still beating." Kit said as Lana smirked.
"I'm happy that y'all are fine. Isn't someone else here that you know?" Lana asked
"Yeah, my man best friend Roy. He has a stomach ulcer and he's going to have surgery tomorrow." Kit said
"Can I see her?" Lana asked all of a sudden.
"Let me go in first and you follow behind me." Kit said as Lana nodded.
They walked to the entrance of Jude's room as Kit went in.
"Hey baby, here's your ice water. Are you up for any company?" Kit asked her.
"Sure, but who is it?" Jude asked him as he opened the door, watching him motion for someone to come in.
Jude heard the clicking of heels as she knew it could be anyone, but when she looked up at the person standing in front of her, she gasped.
"Jude?" Lana asked
"Lana Banana." Jude said as Lana smiled as she hugged her.
"Look at you." Lana said as she seen the healthy glow of herself.
"What?" Jude questioned
"You look great!" Lana said as she sat down.
"Well, I do happen to be carrying two little ones inside me." Jude smiled as her eyes sparkled in love.
"I'm glad you finally have everything you ever wanted Jude." Lana said
"I really am sorry Lana." Jude said as Lana put her hands in hers.
"I know and I forgive you. You and Kit were my only chance of hope. You and Mother Claudia got me out of there and I just hope one day that we could possibly shut that place down for good." Lana said
"Hopefully, but first, I want to be a mommy before I do anything that risky. It was bitter and rotten what I did to you, but now, I might have one chance at true hope in finding a friend in you." Jude said as Lana hugged her.
"You have no idea how much I missed the old you. When you were there, confused and trying to remember everything, I could not believe what that monster did to you and the other one did to me." Lana said as Jude felt her babies move as she rubbed her stomach.
"Kit, go call the house and tell Jane that there is leftovers in the fridge.'' Jude said
"Okay baby." Kit said
"I'm going to go on to the house, it was nice to meet you Lana." Vivien said as she hugged Jude and walked out.
"I'm glad you have Pepper with you. I always felt bad for what people have always said about her." Lana said
"I know Pepper's story, but it wasn't her who killed that poor, innocent baby." Jude said
"I know, it was her sister's husband. Maybe he should be committed to Briarcliff." Lana said as Jude felt the movements of her babies even more as Jude was listening.
"Jude, are you okay?" Lana asked her.
"Yes, my babies are moving around like crazy. They either love you or they want to go back to sleep." Jude said
"Can I feel?" Lana asked her.
"Of course!" Jude said as Lana laid her hands on her stomach as she felt them move.
"I think they like you." Jude said as she smiled.
"Do they move around like this with everyone?" Lana laughed
"Sometimes, they have their days." Jude said
"Just like their mommy." Lana said as Jude laughed.
"Lana?" Jude asked
"Hmm?" Lana hummed
"Where's your son?" Jude asked her as Lana's smile fell.
"I gave him up for adoption." Lana said
"I'm sorry." Jude said as she couldn't fathom being pregnant with Thredson's child.
"Do you know he killed all those women, Kit did not do it. He was framed." Lana said
"I know. He told me himself and Lana, he is just a good person and I would like personally set fire to Thredson if I could." Jude said
"You don't have to worry about him anymore." Lana said
"Why?" Jude asked
"I killed him." Lana admitted
"You had a right to do that and I would not blame you." Jude said
"You don't?" Lana asked
"No, because I would personally go back in time and shoot two people myself, but I don't hold in all that anger in anymore." Jude said.
"Can I know?" Lana asked.
"Of course. I was once engaged to this man named Casey and the night before we were to get married, he blamed me for the reason why we could not have children and called me a whore." Jude told her as Lana touched her stomach.
"Well, looks like he lost a good person, because now you got Kit and has you with not one baby, but two little ones on the way." Lana said as Jude smiled.
"There's more darling." Jude admitted
"Okay, just take your time." Lana said as she stared at the woman who looked like a walking statue of strong and bravery.
"When I went to my doctor after I finally got over my self-pity, he told me I had syphilis." Jude said as she felt her babies move again.
"A disease known to decrease the chance of fertility and the cause of having unprotected sex." Lana said.
"You're correct." Jude said.
"Casey was the one who slept around while you tried to pick up the pieces of your life and make something out of yourself." Lana said.
"Right again, but that was not enough for him. He told me I was nothing but a worthless, no good for nothing whore." Jude said.
"I'm so sorry Jude. I hate that all the bad things happened to you." Lana said.
"I'm happier than I've ever been. I have a wonderful, loving husband with our two little blessings due in July, a great house, a job I love more than words could describe and girls I call my own." Jude said as they both smiled.
"I'm so happy for you Jude." Lana said as she hugged her.
"Now, we need to find you someone." Jude said as Lana scoffed.
"Not right now, I'm happy in my life and hopefully one day, the perfect one will come along." Lana said.
"Maybe I should have told Kit to grab something to eat. Me and the babies are quite ravished." Jude said as Lana felt her own stomach growl.
"I hope we can be friends Jude?" Lana questioned
"Of course. Don't expect to just walk in here and listen to my whole story and walk your little ass right out that door, because one day, I will eventually tell my story or who knows, maybe one of my children will become a published author." Jude said as she admired her stomach.
"Well, I will be here as long as you want me to be. Now, do you have any ultrasounds on you?" Lana asked her.
"Yes, grab my purse over there." Jude pointed as she did.
Jude pulled out a baby photo book that she kept all of her pictures of her belly and ultrasounds.
"When I look at the ultrasounds, I just feel my heart ache to hold them, but they will be here before I know it." Jude said as she heard her door open to see Kit come in.
"The girls are fine and Pepper is asleep." Kit said as Jude smiled.
"Well, speaking of sleep. I need to get home. I have an early day tomorrow." Lana said.
"Alright, well I'm quite restless myself." Jude said as she felt her eyes getting heavy with sleep.
"I will walk you to your car. I will be right back baby." Kit said as he kissed Jude's cherub lips as she took a sip of her water.
"Okay, I will wait on you baby." Jude said as Kit helped Lana with her coat and they walked out to the elevator and it opened as it they rode it down to the lower level and out to the lobby in the parking lot.
"You're one lucky man Kit Walker." Lana told him.
"I know and I'm happy." Kit said
"You better not hurt her or I will hurt you." Lana said as she kissed his cheek.
"I'm not that much of a jerk. I'm not him." Kit said
"I'm just saying Kit, she loves you." Lana said
"And I love her." Kit said
"If you ever need anything, just call me." Lana said
Back in Jude's hospital room
Jude was about to drift off when there was a knock at her door.
"Mrs. Walker, it is after hour visitation, but there is someone very eager to see you." Her nurse said
"Well, tell them to leave and let me know when my husband comes back in through the elevator."
"He says it's important to see you." Her nurse said as she sensed Jude's agitation.
"My husband is the only one I care to see, so if it's not him, then tell him to leave."
"Okay." The nurse said as she faced the now renounced Pope or rather Monsignor Timothy Howard.
"Sorry, Mr. Howard. Mrs. Walker is resting and it's after visitation hours." The nurse said
"I can't leave without seeing her." Timothy said as the elevator dinged.
Kit was walking towards Jude's hospital room when he seen Timothy standing there.
"What the hell?" Kit asked himself as he walked closer.
"Mr. Walker, your wife is resting." Jude's nurse said
"He did not go in there, did he?" Kit asked her.
"No sir." Jude's nurse said
"Do me a favor Howard, stay away from my wife. You had your two chances and you blew them, so do us a favor and go take your "oh, poor pity me self" with you. She does not love you at all and does not care about you, so leave before I have security called for disturbing her and me." Kit said as he just wanted to throat punch him, but he wanted to lay right beside Jude the most while feeling their babies move around.
"Is there a problem here Kit?" Kit turned around and seen Frank standing there as Frank looked at Timothy and shook his head in disbelief.
"Yes Frank, this man deserves every wrong thing done to him just like my wife had done to her. Take him where he belongs and as for you, you son of a bitch, stay away from my wife." Kit pointed at Timothy.
"Jude has a right to know about you Mr. Walker and one day, she'll find out the truth." Timothy said
"Like what Howard? Mr. Walker did not commit those crimes, that man who raped Lana Winters was the Bloody Face Murderer', now let's go before I decide to take you to Briarcliff and leave you there for the remainder of your human existence." Frank said as he grabbed Timothy by the scruff of his collar.
"Thank you Frank." Kit said as he opened Jude's hospital door.
"You're welcome Mr. Walker." Frank said as he tipped his hat to him.
Kit walked back into Jude's room to see her peacefully relaxing as she was reading.
"What the hell did he want?" Jude asked as Kit got ready for bed.
"To see you, but that not going to happen." Kit said as he crawled in beside her as she turned to face him and he felt movement under his hand.
"How did I get to be so lucky?" Jude asked him.
"Probably because God found two broken souls that were meant for one another." Kit said as Jude pressed a kiss to his lips.
"If I was not hooked up to heart rate machine and an IV, we could spend our night practicing for a new labor starter I just read." Jude said as Kit rubbed her back.
"I'm happy just laying here with you, feeling our babies moving around and holding close to me." Kit said as Jude smiled.
"You're my Romeo." Jude said
"Hark! Who goes there." Kit recited.
"Maybe we could name our babies Romeo and Juliet?" Jude questioned
"I think we are pretty much in love with the names Josiah and Kennedy." Kit said
"Okay, but on our next doctor's visit, we might get to find out the genders of our babies, so Romeo and Josiah if they are both boys. Juliet and Kennedy if we are having girls." Jude said
"I say we're having a boy and a girl." Kit said
"It's never too late to try to come up with names." Jude said
"I know, but Josiah and Kennedy are the ones that work the best, but I love the additional ones if we decide to change, which I doubt we do." Kit said as Jude giggled.
"You're right, but we better get some sleep because this mama is sure worn out." Jude said as Kit kissed her temple.
"Good night baby." Kit said as Jude smiled.
"Good night darling." Jude said as they kissed
"Good night my sweet babies." Kit rubbed her stomach.
"Our miracles." Jude said as they drifted off to sleep with Kit holding her.
