Omniscient POV

The couple shared a laugh as they rode down the freeway. Beyoncé smiling at her girlfriend as the woman recorded her. They were on their way to the OBGYN to have an ultrasound for her.

"Get that camera out of my face, baby." Beyoncé chuckled as her girlfriend shoved a camera in her face. She never stopped smiling as she was ignored.

"I love you, Bey." Gianna smiled whilst still recording the blonde. Beyoncé quickly leaned over to peck her lips as she approached a red light.

"I love you more, Gia." She spoke lovingly before pulling away.

"Now say that to the video camera. Tell our baby how much you love her." Gianna spoke whilst still pointing the camera at Beyoncé.

"I love you, son." Beyoncé spoke, loud and proud.

"Our baby is going to be a girl." Gianna momentarily turned the camera to herself before turning it back to Beyoncé.

"I'm so excited to see you on that little ultrasound screen, son." Beyoncé placed her hand on her girlfriends bulging stomach. At 5 months, the baby was already big and healthy. Healthy enough to pop out at anytime.

"Whatever baby, it's a green light now. Drive." Gianna rolled her eyes and she laughed at the blonde.

Beyoncé gently started the car back up and the car started moving. Out of the corner of her eyes, she'd spotted an SUV approaching the passenger side of her car.

She paid it no mind until she counted her car flipping 7 times in the air before crashing down into a ditch. Her head was forcefully bashed against her seat as an airbag exploded in her face. Knocking her out.

In her mouth sat a metallic taste as she felt blood oozing out of her lip. There was a ringing in her ear as she merely woke up. She could hear sirens blaring around her.

"B-Baby." She heard from beside her as her senses heightened. All she saw was smoke and blood. Smoke and blood. Smoke and blood.

"Beyoncé." The dark-haired woman cried out in fear as she held onto her bump for dear life. "Beyoncé? Bey please wake up."

Now Beyoncé's eyes were wide open as she tried to move. She soon realised that her car was upside down and she had something pressing hard on her liver.

"Calm down, Gianna. Please baby, breathe for me." Beyoncé rasped out as she remembered her pregnant girlfriend was prone to panic attacks.

"I can't breathe, Beyoncé. I can't breathe." Her girlfriend cried helplessly. She sobbed as she struggled to move from the restraints of her seat belt and airbag.

"Count to 10, baby." Beyoncé continued to calm her girlfriend down, whilst unbuckling her own seat belt.

"1...2...3..4..5..6..7-" Gianna counted before abruptly stopping. Beyoncé immediately looked over to her and she crawled over to her.

Gianna's body shook, vigorously.

"Gianna?" Beyoncé watched her girlfriends eyes roll to the back of her head as she seized. She patted her girlfriends cheek and cried for her to stop shaking. "Gianna?!"
