TW: BLOOD,DEATH,CAR ACCIDENT, SWEARING etc.
Hailey's POV:
I firmly grasped Brooke's hand as I tried so hard not to let stinging tears pass through my eyes.

I needed to be strong ,really strong but how could I be? When my bestfriend is literally in labour beside me.

I looked in terror at the car seat which was now drenched in blood, I fixed my eyes on Brooke's with nothing but fright as she struggled to keep her eyes open. I immediately noticed this and my head turned to Jamal who was at the drivers seat, red eyed sweaty and aimlessly trying to keep his eyes on the road, not to look at Brooke and I who were at the back seat.

I kept my gaze on him expectantly, eagerly waiting to hear him say that we were close to the hospital or infact already there, but those words never came. Instead, the only voice I heard was Brooke's ear piercing screams that flooded the car, she groaned in pain and agony, Jamal let out a helpless sob as he tried so desperately not to cry.

I turned to face Brooke, my hands still holding hers . "Don't worry Brooke, we're almost there. And you're doing great." I said firmly forcing a smile on my face hoping that she wouldn't feel the weakness in my voice. "Thanks Hail" she said giving me a lop-sided smile. I could tell she was in pain but she was trying not to worry me, and I could see that. I gave her a small nod and was called out of my thoughts when I heared Jamal curse. Loudly.

"What the hell Jamal, what's going- shit." my jaw dropped when I saw the huge traffic cluster infront of us.

Jamal kept on honking at the whole line of cars in front of us signaling for them to move their damn cars but to no avail. He quickly took a sharp turn to a road that had yellow and black tape with a 'caution' sign attached to it. But honestly neither of us cared at moment, our current goal was getting Brooke to the hospital.

"You guys okay?" Jamal asked "I'm good but I'm not sure how long Brooke can stay awake, she's lost a whole lot of blood" I said with pure worry, "Don't worry Brooke, I got you okay? We're gonna get to the hospital soon and meet lil princess Gabriella" Jamal said trying to lift up our spirits. "Yo! Guys this place is really bumpy! hold on!" Jamal shouted, I held Brooke's hand tightly as the car swayed and bumbed. We were almost done until the car crossed a bumb and fell.

"AHNNN!!" Brooke screamed which made me swiftly turn my head to Brooke whose grip tightened on my hand she was bleeding more and more by the second. Jamal turned off the car and looked at us with horror written all over his face. He helped Brooke get into a more comfortable position Brooke was screaming to the top of her lungs, crying, wailing and then it hit me. Brooke needed to give birth and she had to do it now.

"Jamal!" I called to him, he turned to me with his eyes teary "we need to deliver this baby" I said with all the seriousness I could gather, his eyes were wide and the only thing that could be heared were Brooke's heavy breathing, "uh... WHAT?! US?! DELIVER A FUCKING BABY?!" Jamal said with tears finally falling from his eyes, "I'm scared too Jamal but we have too. Brooke will die from blood loss if we don't, and so will the child" my voice came out as a whisper almost inaudible, my cheeks were wet from my hot tears.

Jamal nodded at me, and before we knew it we were delivering a baby.

Fifteen minutes later Gabriella was born and in my arms safe but Brooke was anything but calm she was still bleeding, in pain and screaming "Hail it hurts, it hurts so fucking bad " Brooke cried with tears . Jamal moved back to the drivers seat quickly and began driving really fast. You could hear the engine roaring as he tried to quickly leave the narrow route.

I was begging him to slow down still with tears but he didn't. Thankfully, I heared the sound of other cars. We were approaching the mainroad, Jamal was still speeding until we got out of the narrow road and then I saw a really bright light and my eyes widened I quickly held Gabriella and ducked down while screaming awaiting the impact and when it came........ everything went black.
