-veronica's pov-

The last few shows I have been feeling really bad, today we are in my hometown Staten island. I had just gotten into my second trimester. I was helping Vinny set up his drums, Chris was talking to Justin and Ricky. I got a really bad cramp, that caused me to hunch over in pain. I look down and see blood on my jeans. Another cramp came, causing me to scream. Chris came rushing over, with the guys coming over as well. I finally got out. " I need to get to a hospital." The guys rush me to the closest hospital, and I immediately get taken back.

After a few hours a doctor comes in with a bleak look and says "Mr and Mrs.cerulli, I'm sorry to say this, but Veronica has had a miscarriage, and will have to give birth to the baby. I will give you two a minute." When the doctors leave I just break down, Chris starts balling. The guys come in a few minutes later and see Chris and I holding each other, balling, and Chris rubbing my belly. I look at the guys and say "i-i had a miscarriage, and i'm going to have to give birth!" Ricky looks at me blankly and walks out. We hear him get angry and punch a wall. Justin goes and gets Ricky.

Vinny comes over and hugs me, crying the whole time. The Doctor comes back in and says "it's time." the guys follow Chris and i, as far as they could. When I get into the room, they get me set up. I don't get anything to help with pain, it was so awful. I start to pass out and Chris says with tears in his eyes "baby you need to stay awake, please stay awake." our child is finally brought into this world. The doctor says "it's a boy!" We decided on the name a few weeks before. If it was a boy he would be named after Chris. I'm happy it's a boy. A nurse asks us "What's his name?" Chris says "Christopher Thomas Cerulli." I weakly signed his birth certificate.

They put him on my chest, and I started balling. I feel him breathing and I look up at Chris, shocked. I say "he's breathing!" the doctor rushes over and checks his pulse, and says "i have never seen this in my whole career. He's got a pulse, nurse go get an incubator and hurry!" I smile through the tears. And so does Chris. They get Little Christopher into the incubator, and get me into a room. The guys come into the room and I say "he's alive, he made it. Our son made it!" they looked shocked. I say "Chris is in the nicu, most likely admiring our son."

Justin and Ryan go first. Vinny and Ricky sit by my side. Ricky says "i'm so beyond happy that our godson is alive and well! But how does this happen, how does a hospital get the diagnosis wrong." I shrug my shoulders still weak from giving birth and say " I don't know. I'm happy he's alive as well, it would have destroyed Chris and i." Chris,Justin, and Ryan came back. Chris says "visiting hours in the nicu are over, you guys can see him tomorrow. Go and get some rest, i'm going to stay here with Ronnie.'' They leave and I pass out.
