Previously on Her Bad Boy: " You have a lot of explaining to do little sister".

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I sighed knowing that Hunter had trouble expressing his feelings so this would probably break out into a world war 3 in this house.

" I need you all to sit down, and no talking until I'm completely finished telling you all. Got it?", I asked them with a stern voice letting them all know that I mean business.

" Yes", Daniel and the rest of the guys except for Hunter agreed.

" Hunter?"

He rolled his eyes before grumbling that he agreed.

" Alright so, I am going to explain the story with pictures okay", I told them wanting them to be warned before I launched into the emotional story of my late boyfriend and our daughter.

" So 2 almost 3 years ago, I was taking a relaxing walk when suddenly I heard shouting coming from nearby. It turns out that someone had tripped over a tree stump and let go of their dog's leash causing it to run off. I ran after the dog and grabbed the leash, heading over to where the shouts had come from", I took a deep breath before continuing. " I found the puppy's owner on the lawn with a broken ankle. I was going to leave after returning the dog, but the owner looked like he was in a great deal of pain, so I decided to stay there by his side until help arrived seeing as he already called an ambulance to come to find him.  The owner of the puppy said his name was Jake Kingston and it just so happened that he was only a year and a half older than me. We even went to the same school together but never bumped into each other before this moment.  When the paramedics arrived and checked his ankle they told him that he would have to go to the hospital. But Jake refused to go to the hospital with them and that he wouldn't step foot into a hospital ever again after what had happened to his father. I managed to help Jake persuade the medics to bring out the bed on wheels so we could wheel him back to his house which was only about a few blocks away from where we were now".

" Once Jake had gotten onto the bed on wheels, we started to wheel him down the street and then up to his driveway and into his house. An hour after he got the cast on I was about to leave when he asked for my phone number. I gave him my phone number and he gave me his. And then I left. A few weeks later he face timed me and asked if we could go out to lunch since he had a little surprise for me. I agreed and met up with him at the park close to the lake. And -" 

" Just get to the point already!", Hunter groaned and I glared at him. " What did I say?", I prompted him.

" To not interrupt you until you were done speaking", recited Hunter with a groan.

" Correct, now back to what I was saying".

" A few months later we started dating, and after about 2 years and 1 month of dating, I was at his house alone getting ready for the beach trip he planned for us, when my stomach started to cramp up.  It wasn't until a few hours later when we were in the car did it get worse. I was clutching onto the dashboard of the car and breathing heavily, I was pretty sure that I was crying as well. Jake pulled over at the nearest store and went in to get me pain medicine. We arrived at the beach house a little later after that. I was sitting on the padio behind the house, when suddenly Jake got a phone call and told me he had to go do something quickly and that it wouldn't take too long.  Only mere minutes after he left did the pain come back but this time it was 10 times worse. About an hour or two after the pain was back, I was crying and even screaming in pain which attracted a lifeguard. The lifeguard saw the state I was in and wanted to help me. He tried everything from water to food, to cooling me down with a bucket full of cool water. He then told me that I was about to pop. At first I didn't know what he meant, but it turned out he was trying to tell me that Laila was coming. He grabbed a towel and covered the bottom half of my body with it before pulling my bathing suit bottoms down. When his eyes made contact with mine he said that he could see her head. So I began to push along with my body. Jake didn't get back until she was almost out past her shoulders. He was there to hold her and help name her but then he collapsed bleeding from his chest, arms, legs and even his stomach. He died a few minutes later with Laila laying on shoulder and I was holding his hands watching the life leave his eyes", I finished the story without bursting into tears until a few seconds later.

The room was quiet except for my sobs that escaped every couple of minutes.  Hunter, Daniel, Colton and Hayden hugged me tightly and whispered sweet nothings into my ear trying to get me to calm down as it was scaring Hunter since he had never ever seen me cry before. He always told me that I was strong, but I still wore my heart on my sleeve.

They all had the same looks on their face; shock, anger, hurt and even scared.
