~*Angelo's P. O. V*~

It was around 2:00 in the afternoon. Chris was upstairs in his room talking on the phone with his sister, Rick and Jess were visiting his nephew, Ghost and Kylie were in the living room and Ryan, Allie, and Balz were out doing who knows what. Rebel was cleaning the table off, I was sitting in one of the chairs, and Alex was washing a few dishes in the sink. We were just talking when suddenly, something that sounded like a zip lock bag full of water popping caused everyone to go silent. Rebel and I stared wide eyed at Alex.

"Alex, please tell me you spilled something," Rebel pleaded, hoping it wasn't what we thought it was.

Her eyes filled with terror and she shook her head no.

"Get Chris!" I commanded.

Rebel darted up the stairs and I lead Alexandria to a chair to sit down. She breathed fast with fear.

"Just relax. It's all going to be okay," I assured, grabbing her hand while putting my other one on her shoulder.

~*Chris' P. O. V*~

"Yeah she's fine. She still has about three weeks left," I informed my sister.

I love talking to her. She's one of the best people I know I can have a great conversation with. She was telling me about a few things at her job when Rebel stormed in my door, nearly scaring me half to death.

"Chris! Alex is in labor!"

I froze.

"I'll call you back," I said, quickly ending the call then running downstairs.

We entered the kitchen to see Angelo sitting close to Alex who was tightly holding his hand and gripping the table so hard, her knuckles were whiter than her skin(which was odd speaking as though I didn't think she could get any paler)with the other. Rebel tossed me the expedition keys then helped Angelo get Alex out of her chair.

"Everyone in the car!" I shouted.

"What's going on?" Ghost asked as he and Kylie quickly joined us all.

"She's having the baby!" Angelo yelled.

"Oh Jesus," Kylie mumbled, emotionless.

"Can we leave now?" Alex asked through heavy breaths.

Everyone was out the door and in car, Kylie and Ghost in the very back, Rebel and Alex in the middle, Angelo in the passenger seat and me as the driver.

"We're almost there," Angelo announced half way through the ride, turning around to look at Alex.

I could see her in the mirror. Rebel was on her right, squeezing her hand while Alex's free hand rested on her enormous stomach. Her head hung back and her eyes were closed tight. She looked like she was in terrible pain. And THIS was only the beginning.

"Someone text everyone else to let them know while someone else calls the hospital and let them know we're coming in," Rebel instructed.

"I'll call, you text," Kylie said to Ghost.

He nodded and they did their assignments.

"Ow, ow, OUCH!" Alex whined, throwing her head back up.

"Easy, easy. Stay calm," Rebel said trying to ease her.

I kept staring at her through sorrow eyes. She looked back at me.

"Almost there. Just hold on," I asked her in a calm, quiet voice.

She nodded then held her head back again.

*TEN MINUTES LATER*

We were finally at General Mercy Hospital, the same place Alex was rushed to when I found her at Skylar and Hunter's. Rebel and I carefully helped Alexandria out of the car and walked her inside. I approached the sign in desk that had three people. All nurses, one an older woman with short ginger hair and a purple uniform, an African American man in a mint green uniform and a young brunette in a pink uniform.
