5 days later...

Dixie's POV-

Today's been a pretty chill day. It's rained for the past week, and there isn't much to do. It's a benefit for me though, as I don't need another excuse to stay inside.. but I am pregnant so I need to be extra cautious.

Noah and I have been cuddling since we woke up this morning. It's now 6pm, and I honestly feel ready to go to sleep for the night. I've done a bit of research on pregnancy fatigue.. and I think it all depends on the individual. I myself take other medications which make me tired so that could also be the case.

One thing that makes me so thankful for Noah is when he checks up on me everyday to see how I'm doing. Every morning, he'll ask me the daily questions, ( how i'm feeling, what he can do to help me if i'm not feeling great etc ) give me head & stomach massages, and talk to our little girl. It's the sweetest and most sentimental thing he does with her, and be lying if I said I didn't cry over it 24/7.

Noah's POV-

I'm so excited to meet my little girl. She's gonna have the best life, and I'm gonna make sure of it. She already has the most perfect mommy, and I know Dixie loves her so very much. I always daydream about our soon to be days and years with her... I kinda get freaked out by the fact that newborns are like tiny glass objects. So fragile that even your touch can make them cry. I still can't wait for that day to come, where I'll be holding my little girl against me with my wife right next to us.

We didn't do much today. To be completely honest, we did nothing at all. It was a gloomy day in NY, so we did the usual and cuddled all day long. Dixie fell in and out of sleep, and was very very exhausted from all the get togethers we've done over the past week. I too are very exhausted, so I'm glad we have a few weeks to ourselves before baby girl is born.

Dixie's POV-

It's now 9pm. For me, the days go by so slow when you're doing nothing. I don't know if it's because I slept for most of it, or it just is. When I was working in my office, the days that we made very little sales or even the days where our store was closed felt long and depressing.

I got up to make myself some food whilst Noah was showering, and I could barely stand. I'm not even full term, but my back is KILLING me. I sat down on the couch to properly support my back and waited until Noah came back.

"Dix?" He called walking down the hallway. "Y-Yeah I'm here baby" I replied in a quiet hitched voice. Noah looked over at me and came straight over. "Hey, are you ok?" He asked sitting beside me. "Mhm, just my back is in so much pain rn that's all" I told him adjusting my sitting position. "Do you wanna go back to bed, and I can massage your back for you baby?" Noah said getting up from his spot and reaching his hands out to help me stand. "I would love that baby, thank you" I exclaimed while standing up.

I climbed into bed and waited for Noah. He asked me to take off my shirt so I could lay on my side still staying somewhat comfortable. I stayed in Pj's all day so I didn't even have to change. He came up behind me and lightly moved his fingers along my spine with just enough pressure to relieve the tightness I was feeling.

After a few minutes, he gently turned me to to face him, and accidentally jabbed his elbow into my left breast. "F-Fuck" I said as I flinched and lightly started to cry. "Oh my god baby I'm so sorry" "I'm so sorry" He kept repeating as he gently wrapped his arms around me kissing my head. "I-It's ok b-baby, I'm fine, just sore that's all" I told him with a little smile. "No no it's not ok, I know that really hurt baby.." he replied. "May I?" he asked while hovering his hands over my chest. "Of course" I said. Noah ever so lightly massaged each breast to take away the sudden pain I was experiencing and It felt amazing. I did wince a few times when he touched a certain spot, but it was bearable. He finished by leaving 2 final kisses on each one before slowly coming up to kiss me. I mouthed an "I love you" to him as he smiled. 

Noah's POV-

I felt terrible for hurting Dixie. I never meant to cause her any pain, but it was an accident and she understood. We were both so tired, and could barely keep our eyes open, so I pulled the covers over the 2 of us, and did my usual "daddy daughter chat" to put Dixie to sleep. "Goodnight my angel. Daddy loves you so much, and I can't wait to see you. Every morning means one day closer to meeting you and I still can't believe it. Please be nice to mommy ok" I said giving Dixie's tummy little massages with my fingers. I left a few kisses in the center, and came back up and rested my head on my pillow. "Goodnight my love, sleep well" I whispered knowing I wouldn't get a response. And my guess was right. She was knocked out.

2 Hours Later... TW ⚠️

A/N-

"Oww!!" She cried out, making her way to the bathroom. She turned on the light and looked down to see blood trickling down her leg and onto the floor. Her body went numb as she saw A few blood clots fall into the toilet beneath her. The pain and grief she was experiencing. The pain of child loss. Her heart was torn into a million pieces. She lost her happiness. Her little angel that was soon to arrive in a matter of weeks. Heavy sobs and screams escaped from her lips as she struggled to breath.

Noah's POV-

I woke up to a terrible scream filling the apartment. My eyes shot open, and I sat up and looked around the room. No Dixie. No Dixie was in sight, which meant she was somewhere in the house. I quietly got up and peered into the hallway. A little light shined on the floor from under the bathroom door and I knew she was in there.

A/N-

Noah sat outside, hesitant to hear a voice but he heard nothing. "Baby? Is everything ok?" Noah called out. "I-I had h-her name picked o-out and e-everything" Dixie whispered collapsing onto the floor. She couldn't breathe. This was all too much for her. Her heart was shattered and she couldn't fight the tears. "H-HER room w-was fi-fin-finished too" Dixie said unaware that her husband was right outside the door. She cried louder and louder not able to comprehend what just happened. "Baby, please open the door I'm right here" Noah said as his mind was racing inside.

"NO NO SHE'S GONE!!! WHY ME?! WHY IS IT ALWAYS MY FUCKING FAULT!!" Dixie cried out. Noah ran in and was devastated by what he saw. He was in complete shock. Screaming filled his ears and felt nothing but fear and sadness. "I-I'M SO SORRY NOAH I-I KILLED OUR BABY!!" She yelled wheezing for air. He rushed over to her and held her tight. They both just cried. "I-It's o-ok baby s-shhh" Noah said trying his best to calm her and himself down. There was blood EVERYWHERE, and Noah couldn't understand what just happened. "Come on baby, let's get you to the hospital ok?" Noah said as he looked into the glossy and heartbroken eyes of his wife who was absolutely terrified inside.

Noah's POV-

I rushed to the hospital with Dixie beside me. Tears continued to fall down her little freckled face and I tried my best to wipe them any chance I got. I didn't know what to do.. I didn't know if this was gonna end up terrible or if it was just a scare. I can't stand seeing Dixie in this much pain. I can tell her mind is all over the place and she's worried sick. I kept glancing between her and the traffic lights that I wish would change quicker.

A/N-

Dixie and Noah had arrived at the hospital. Dixie's doctors office was connected to the hospital so her personal doctor would be able to see her. They got her in on a table and within minutes Dr. Steff came through the door. "Ok Dixie. Please don't worry about this sweetheart, we don't know the exact reason yet. Let me get an ultrasound going and we can see what's up ok?" Dr. Steff proceeded to tell the couple.

"Oh guys.. your baby is...."
