The Girl He Craves novel (Sophie and Aiden) novel Chapter 100

Sophie’s pov

“Oh my baby bug,” I rushed over to Ashton who was playing with building blocks on the mat.

As Mrs. Georgia had mentioned, Miss. Greene was right beside Ashton, helping him build what I suppose was a castle….

When he heard my voice his beautiful blue eyes shot up and he beamed. His eyes were glossy and his nose was red. His cheeks were also flushed.

My heart throbbed. He was sick.

“Moma,” He said and struggled to get to his feet.

“Mommy is here baby,” I whispered as I scooted down and picked him up in my arms.

I hug his smaller body to mine, kissing his cheek and whispering soothing words to reassure him that he was going to be fine.

I noted how his body temperature was a bit off.

Aiden comes to stand beside us and rubs Ashton’s back while looking down at him in clear concern. “Do you know what could have made him sick?” He asked one of the women

whose eyes were on the three of us.

They shook their heads while one answered. “He seemed okay earlier but suddenly started sneezing and his nose got runny.

Might be a small bug or a cold.”

Ashton’s head dropped on my shoulder and I lift the back of my hand to his forehead. He’s burning up.

“He has a fever Aiden,” I said rapidly, scared that this was serious.

Aiden’s eyes watch his son with deep worry and said. “We’ll take him to the doctor baby, don’t worry okay?” He said, lifting his eyes to mine in reassurance.

I nodded, my brain too fumbled to realize what he called me at the moment.

Miss. Greene brought over Aiden’s little bag and Aiden and I walked out of the building with Ashton in my arms in a few.

When we got inside the Suv, I had Ashton tucked in my arms, holding him close as I run my fingers through his hair gently.

My eyes misted. “I don’t understand how this could’ve happened,” I said shakily, my voice filled with emotion.

I hated when Ashton got sick. Which was rarely.

“He seemed fine this morning,” My voice cracked.

I’m startled slightly when Aiden’s hand lands on mine that was wrapped around Ashton’s middle. He squeezes my hand.

“He’ll be okay Sophie. It’s nothing to fret about.” He said calmly though when I looked over at him he was just as worried as me. Perhaps even more.

I nod and kissed the top of Ashton’s head. He was burning up

even more now.

“He’s burning up,” I whispered with a pitch of fear in my tone.

Aiden’s hand left mine to rest on his son’s head and his face

twisted with more concern.

“Mitch can you step on the gas?” He said to Mitch urgently.

When we got to the hospital, Aiden insisted that he’d hold Ashton since his legs were longer than mine and would get inside the building before I could.

But I was certain he only wanted to hold his son in his arms to help ease his worries.

We both rushed to the ER. Aiden being the Ceo that he was used his superiority and demanded that they check Ash right

away.

The woman behind the front desk looked faint when she took note of Aiden’s unflickering impatient voice.

“Aiden..” I whispered not sure if being rude and demanding would make them give Ashton the best care.
