"Dear God get this child out of me!" I yell as mom tries to talk on the phone.

I try to take a deep breath in and exhale it slowly but with every intake I feel like my stomach is being ripped apart. This can't be normal. This isn't how the doctor explained my contractions would be like. It's supposed to be at least a few minutes apart. Right? I can't even concentrate right now.

" MOM WILL YOU HURRY THE FUCK UP!" I yell out in pain.

Mom looks as if she is ready to faint. The middle-aged waitress from earlier grabs the phone with her left hand and starts to fan mom with her other hand.

" We need an ambulance now. I'm not having another baby in my diner. " the woman orders.

Wait. Another?

Before I could question her I see Stella's car pull up. Sure enough she has a beer in her hand. As soon as her eyes lands on me the beer can falls out of her hand and she rushes over to the entrance of the diner.

" Is she in labor?!" she asks my mom.

Mom nods and Stella pulls out her phone. She quickly types over her phone and hits the 'call' button.

Another cramp makes it's way to my stomach as Stella's conversation zones out. What is Chicka doing inside me?! Having a fucking party or what.

I try my breathing techniques again but it's no use. Stella comes into my view and takes my arm.

" W-what are you doing?" I ask out of breath.

" We need to go." She orders as she tries to help me up.

" The ambulance will be here in a few minutes to take her to the hospital." the middle aged woman says while holding mom up straight.

Gee mom thanks for the help over here. Note to my sarcasm.

" No ambualcne. No hospital. I'll take it from here." Stella answers and starts to help me walk towards the exit of the diner.

Is she crazy?! I need to get to a damn hospital to get this child out of me! I'm about to go bat shit crazy if I don't get medical help in the next few minutes.

" She needs to go to the hospital Stella." mom argues finally getting her voice back.

Stella exhales dramatically.

" Misses Adams, please." Stella begs my mother.

Stella looks over to me. " You need to come with me. The baby won't be safe in the hospital. " she whispers.

That's when reality hits me. She's right. Why didn't I think of this earlier? Of course Stella knows what she is doing.

" I'll be fine mom." I breath out.

Just before mom could put up another argument Stella rushes me out of the diner and into her car. I grab onto her wrist.

" I-I need you to drive l-like the crazy woman you are S-Stella." I breath. No one prepared me to stay fit while in labor. Why am I so out of breath?

Stella's smile grows a mile and she jumps into the driver's seat. She looks so excited. Of course this would be exciting for her. She has been stuck with my nagging about her unacceptable driving skills for hell knows how long. Now it's finally her chance to break free and drive like the mad woman she is.

I see mom getting into her car as Stella speeds of with an insane speed. Mom tries to keep up with us as Stella zooms past numerous cars. Another two or three or even five speeding tickets later we arrive at Blake's house. Except we aren't the only one's there. I see dozens of people coming in and out of the house with medical appliances. In the middle of the chaos Blake is shouting at them to move quicker. We come to a stop and Blake rushes over to the passenger side. Glad to see he finally made time for me.

" We need to get her to the bed now. She's gone pale. I don't know how to predict when a pregnant woman is gonna faint but she looks hella close to fainting." Stella rushes her words as Blake unbucles me and picks me up.

" GET HER OUT!" I cry as the cramps keep on coming.

Blake speed walks into the house and towards a room near the back of the house.

Inside the room a medical bed has been set up with all sorts of monitors surrounding it. Some people are busy connecting different wires. Other are busy talking on the phone and shouting orders at the rest of the people. I also see Doctor Louis in the middle of a group nurses. He is also giving out orders as they nod along. Blake quickly walks over to the bed and gently places me down. I wince in pain as my back makes contact with the soft sheets.

Doctor Louis walks over to me with a smile.

" Everly. Nice to see you again. On a scale from one to ten how bad is the pain you are currently experiencing?" he's so calm. How can he be this calm?!

" GET HER OUT!" I yell. I don't mean to be rude or anything but I have a child that is forcing herself out of me and I don't do small talk in cases like this.

" A ten it is. " he replies and turns around to the group of nurses behind him.

I feel Blake's hand on top of my hand as his thumb makes little circles on my hand. He smiles down at me.

" We're gonna get through this." he mouthes.

Stella comes to stand next to him and nods. If I wasn't in labor and filled with never ending pain I would've probably cooed at how they are getting along. They always seemed to hate each other for some reason but seeing them here in the same room, trying to help me, makes my heart heat up a little.

I can do this. It's just a baby. That I'm going have to push out- oh God.

Some of the nurses start to hook me up to the monitors and another nurse comes to stand in front of me with a razor in her hands.

" Time to shave." she smiles.

My eyes go wide.
