Hello lovelies.

Before I start this chapter.

Id like to warn you all.

This will have graphic content.

I am not shy about labor or birth, since I have been through it. 

Please enjoy if you are able to stomach it.

Love you all

xoxo

"Essie?" Jayy pokes his head into the bathroom, where I'm putting on eyeliner.

"Yes love?" I reply, removing the eyeliner from my eye, looking at him

"Are you sure you're gonna be okay?" 

"Ssh, I'll be fine," I brush it off

"But baby, you're nine months. She could come at any time," Jayy sighs

"Jayy, I'll be fine. She won't be coming for a while." I try and reassure, though he doesn't buy it. 

He sighs, giving up as I follow him downstairs, seeing Dahvie getting Burnt Marshmallow ready.

The boys would be going to a meet-and-greet, so I'd be alone for a bit. I take a seat on the couch, huffing, "Jesus she's heavy," 

Jayy comes back in and laughs, "She did add an extra twenty-five pounds," 

"Can't wait to lose all this weight," I admit

"Pssh," 

"Ready to go?" Dahvie asks, walking into the living room

"Yeah. If anything happens, call me, I'll be here in a heartbeat," Jayy orders

"Okay. Love you," I say, pecking his lips

"Love you more," He bends down to my stomach, "Love you too Ember," 

She kicked as a reaction.

-----

I was in the middle of cutting up cheese for Rotel when Ember became fussy, moving around and kicking. I placed the knife on the counter, glancing down at my belly, where I saw her little foot poke out of the skin. 

"What's the matter?" I coo, rubbing my stomach

She kicked and kicked, and I found myself having to sit on the kitchen floor to keep me from collapsing. I bit my lip to keep in a scream, clutching at the skin of my belly as I started to sob. I felt myself start to give up as the pain increased, like someone was purposely stabbing me with a million knives.

This cannot be happening.

Not now.

"Please, stop, Emmie. Please," I beg to the child 

She doesn't stop, and I start to feel lightheaded. I laid down onto my back, closing my eyes. 

It went black.

----

Pain.

Pain was all I remembered as I woke. 

I looked around, noticing I was still in the kitchen. Ember had stopped moving, but the pain was dull. 

The worst kind of pain.

I tried sitting up, only to hiss in pain as my back gave out. Ember was pushing on my spine, probably moving around, briefly paralyzing me. I felt something wet in between my legs, my heart stopping. 

My eyes travelled to my unclothed legs, my hands shakily pulling the skirt to my dress up. Underneath the sheer fabric of my dress, lay my worst nightmare.

A pool of blood.

I sobbed, pulling off my destroyed underwear and looking for my phone. 

It's all the way across the fucking room are you serious right now. 

I managed to get myself onto my knees, dragging myself towards the phone. I whimper as Ember kicks again, and I can feel the blood pooling down my thighs and streaking the ground. I scream out as my legs give out, landing onto my back. 

I reached with my arm, managing to get the finger between my two fingers. I shakily dialed 911.

"Hello what is your emergency?" 

"I'm...I'm pregnant....and I'm bleeding..." I sob

"What is your location?" 

"818 Interstate, Phoenix, Arizona," I force out, screaming

"Help is on the way," 

After she hung up, I dialed Jayy, "Jayy...Jayy, I'm calling 911," 

"What the hell? Baby why?!" He demands

"I'm in labor, and I'm bleeding. I don't think we're gonna make it," 

And it went black again. 

The second to last chapter, will be the finale.
