Dixie's POV:
These last couple days have been the most painful days of my life.. My birthday is 3 days but I don't even care. It doesn't feel right with out my baby here, Noah has been amazing taking care of me and trying to make me feel better and I appreciate it so much, I love him so much and I can tell that he's trying really hard to keep himself together and trying to be strong for me, but he's really really hurting and I wish he would just let his emotions out, we were laying in bed on our phones, "babe?" I said "yeah baby" he said back "bub I know that you've been trying to stay strong for me... But I really want you to let your emotions out and I can tell your hurting" I said, "B-but I don't want you to think I'm weak..." he said "bub this is a painful thing its ok to cry, I won't think your weak! Come here" I said putting my arms out, he immediately hugged me and started sobbing in my arms, I rubbed his back "it's ok baby it's ok" I said tearing up "I was so excited t-to be a dad D-Dixie" he said crying "I know you were baby I'm sorry" I said starting to cry, he cried for about 20 more minutes in my arms, I'm happy that he finally let his emotions out. We kept cuddling for a while
(A couple hours later)
"Babe I think we should clean up the apartment a little bit, maybe it would make you feel better with a clean room" Noah said "ok" I said, we got out of bed and started cleaning, I haven't gotten out of bed for days. I was cleaning the bedroom and Noah was cleaning the kitchen, while I was cleaning the bedroom I opened the closet and saw all the baby clothes that me and Noah had bought and just stared lightly crying. I grabbed them and folded them  neatly, Noah came in and saw me crying "bub what's wrong?" he asked, I held up the clothes while my eyes filled with tears, he walked behind me and wrapped his hands around my waist and kissed my head, I put the clothes away and Noah just kinda stood there with his arms still around my waist, "bub... I know that we don't need all these baby clothes but.. Can we keep one just to remember them?.." I said turning towards Noah "of course baby. Whatever you want" he said smiling at me, he went back into the kitchen and I kept cleaning in the bedroom. Once we were done we just cuddled.
( A day later)
Noahs POV:
Me and Dix are still struggling, it's been 5 days since it happened and we're getting better and better everyday but still struggling, this really affected us but if anything our relationship grew stronger. Her birthday is tomorrow which is gonna be a hard day for her, for us. I still wanna celebrate her birthday with her friends though, we told them about everything that happened and they were super kind. We're having a party for Dix tomorrow, and I got her a couple presents and I'm nervous about it, it's supposed to come in the mail today, I woke up early and Dixie was asleep, I heard a knock on the door and I got up and got it, Dixie didn't wake up being the heavy sleeper that she is. I went to the door and there was a package, I sat on the couch and opened it. When I opened it I smiled but also cried at the same time. It was Dixie's present. I loved it so much. I put it back in the box and hid it where Dixie can't find it. I went back in the bedroom and she was awake, "what was at the door babe?" she asked "just a little something for a certain someone's birthday" I said smiling at her, she lightly smiled but not enough to were you can see her teeth, I got in bed next to her and we watched TV and cuddled

Dixie's POV:
Today's my 20th birthday... Yippee... I didn't wanna do anything but Noah said that we need to leave the house, Noah woke up and started rubbing my back "good morning birthday girl" he said, "morning.." I said back "hey I know today is gonna be hard but we can still have fun!" Noah said, I smiled a little "yeah" I said back, we got ready and drove to the hype house where all our friends were. We went inside and talked. No one brought up the baby, I'm sure Noah told everyone to not bring it up. We all talked then got to presents, I told everyone to not get me ANYTHING but of course everyone did, I opened everyone's present and thanked them, Avani got baby clothes. She apologized multiple times and said how she bought it before it all happened, "avani it's totally cool" I said, I was holding back tears and no one noticed which I'm happy about, these last couple days I haven't been able to go an hour without having a little cry, so I'm happy that I didn't do it here, "here you go bub" Noah said while giving me a bag, I grabbed a letter and started reading it

Dear Dixie,
Baby these last couple days have been very hard for both of us and I'm so proud of you, your the strongest girl that I know, I love you so so much, and I got you a gift to remember our baby by, I hope you love it. I love you Dixie.

Now I was really holding back tears, I looked at Noah and gave him a big smile, the first time I had smiled in days, I grabbed the box and opened it. I couldn't keep my tears in after what I saw. I started sobbing, Noah kissed my head. This was what he got me.

I hugged Noah tight

I hugged Noah tight. I didn't even know what to say, everyone was wondering what it was and I showed them, the girls started lightly crying and a couple of the boys teared up "that's amazing Dix" Blake said, I just nodded my head while crying, this was weird. They weren't in my stomach I could actually see them and hold them, it was beautiful but also a very painful feeling, I thanked everyone and me and Noah went home, I held the heart in my hand the whole way home, me and Noah went inside and laid on the bed "hey baby could I hold it? I never got a good look at it" Noah said, I gave him the heart and he smiled at me with tears in his eyes, he rubbed the heart with his thumb. I kissed his head. "Baby this is the most amazing thing that anyone has ever gotten me" I said, he just smiled, he put the heart up to my stomach and we both giggled but cried at the same time "Now I can still talk to you buddy" Noah said, I got butterflies and just cried happy and sad tears. A while later we put the heart on the side table, cuddled and went to sleep.
