THIS IS JUST A ONE SHOT FIONA DOESN'T ACTUALLY LOSE HER BABY IN THIS STORY!!!
Trigger Warning: Blood and Death

Noor's POV

Horace, Millard and I are going to Hugh and Fiona's today while Hugh helped mitigate the Enoch v.s. Emma v.s. Jake dispute that's been going on since dinner last night. Of course Miss Peregrine was visiting Ann in the present, so we had to try and break it up ourselves.
"Enoch! Get your organs away from my food!" Emma whined.
"Or what? You'll burn me?"
"That was the coolest thing you could come up with?" Jake taunted.
"Stay out of this." Emma bit.
Jake rolled his eyes, Emma was more bitchy towards him than usual.
I went into the kitchen to grab a drink and when I came back, everyone was screaming at each other.
"It was a madhouse!" Millard said.
Fiona was fixing us all some tea while we all gossiped. She was wearing a lovely maternity dress Emma bought her, it was a white loose fitting dress with colors stitching at the sleeves, neck hole, and bottom.
"You weren't even there!" Horace protested.
"Yeah, why are you here Mill?" I asked.
"Ann is going through a phase, she's spending the day with a babysitter we met down the street."
"And she doesn't know about Ann's little gift?"
"Back when it was only Horace, Emma, Enoch, Abe and I, another girl lived with us."
"Charlotte." Horace reminisced.
Fiona handed us our tea and looked intrigued, I've gotten used to her silence now, but sometimes you can almost hear her murmuring. Jake once told me the reason she never spoke was because she was tried as a witch back in Ireland.
"One day, she left the loop and aged forward fifteen years."
"Damn."
"What does this have to do with Ann's babysitter?"
"She lives here now in the present."
"She got her clock reset?" I asked. Horace looked at me like I was slow.
"Well judging by the fact she hasn't turned to dust, I'd say so." I glared at him.
"Why doesn't she come back into the loop?"
"She's embarrassed, and she loves the present. She's only 25, she's exited to live her life. Plus, she's a good babysitter. Just incase, Bronwyn is there too."
Before we could continue our conversation Fiona gasped. Horace jumped from his barstool and took her hand. There was blood running down her legs.
"Call Miss Peregrine, now!" Horace shouted.
I ran to the phone and paused,
"It's a rotary! I don't know how to use it!"
Millard dashed over and punched in the phone number. Horace was helping Fiona to the navy blue arm chair while trying to get her to take deep breaths, but I could tell she was panicking and that deep breaths weren't gonna do shit.
"Damnit! No ones answering!" Millard slammed down the reviver.
"Fee, how far along are you?" I asked. She leaned into Horace and whispered to him.
"S-six m-months." Horace said shakily.
"To hell with this, I'm going to the house myself!" Millard tucked his coat under his arm and walked towards Fiona and kissed her on the cheek.
"I'm going to get Hugh, it'll be ok don't worry."
Fiona nodded with tears in her eyes.

Millard's POV
My lungs burned as I ran up the hill. Finally the house came into view. I stumbled on the dewy grass. I heard Emma, Jake, and Enoch screaming at each other about something I didn't even care to listen about. I pounded on the door and Claire opened up. Her and Olive had cotton in their ears.
"HEY MILLARD!" They yelled. I went past them and followed the noise into the kitchen. Enoch had a knife and Emma's hands were hot with flames while Jake had a frying pan. They were all standing in a triangle about 5 feet apart from each other. Miss Peregrine and Hugh were on the outside trying to calm them, it was like school children watching a fist fight.
"Why is no one answering the phone!" I yelled.
"We're in the middle of something!" Enoch said irritated.
"It's Fiona!"
Everyone set down their weapons and looked at me.
"What about her? Is she all right?" Hugh took me by the shoulder.
"One second she was fine and then," I ran my hands through my hair, "then she was bleeding, there was blood running down her legs. She's with Horace and Noor, they're taking her to a hospital."
"She has to stay in the loop, she needs to go to the hospital in town."
"Hugh, remember when Lily and I suffered a miscarriage?"
Hugh nodded, "but she was barley pregnant."
"I know, but this is what happened."
I turned to Miss Peregrine as Hugh started to hyperventilate.
"She needs to go to a hospital in the present."
Miss Peregrine nodded. Olive and Claire started to cry and Hugh dashed out the door.
