Athena's POV

I wake up seeing the familiar bright, lights shining all around me. I look around to know I am again in a hospital gown. 'I am tired of being in these clothes....if I kept every hospital gown I have gotten my whole life, I would have a whole closet' I thought, and then I remembered what happened, to my mom, Sam, Tara, and Ghostface, and worry rushes to me. I try to get up from my bed and the pain in my stomach starts to hurt, then I feel someone pushing me back down to the bed and stopping me from leaving. 

I look up to see a nurse who had nice curly hair tied up into a ponytail and was wearing an all-blue outfit. She sets her hands on my shoulders and pushes me back into the soft bedding. 

"Ms.Riley I need you lay back down and rest," she said nicely, but I didn't listen I need to see if my mom is okay, and that she is still alive. 

"No I need to see my mom please I need to see her," I said 

"I need you to calm down Ms.Riley, it's not healthy for you or your babies," she said again, I stopped fighting her and laid down, once she realizes that I am not going to fight her she released me. 

"Can you tell me where my mom is?" I asked 

"She is in surgery, I don't know much," she said, I began remembering what happened to her and how it was my fault. I should have stayed in the room like she told me, maybe if I did she wouldn't be in the hospital. I began to cry hard, after a couple of seconds I feel the nurse hugging me and rubbing my back in a reassuring way. 

"It's ok, your ok," she said quietly, and then that's when I felt her stomach. She has a little baby bump. I pull back and looked at her stomach and then back at her. 

"You're pregnant too," I said, she smiled and looked down, and began to rub her stomach 

"Yea 5 months," she said, I smile at her and wiped my tears away 

"good congrats," I said smiling 

"Thank you as well," she said It was quiet for a couple of seconds until she spoke again

"I know it's scary but I promised that it will get better, and I know I can't relate to you because I have never been attacked two times in a span of 24 hours and being pregnant. But I can say that there is still hope for the future and It will be bright, so don't give up yet," she spoke, and when she was done I knew that whatever is going to happen I knew that I shouldn't revolve my whole life around it, I need to change and grow and not stay in the past. 

"Thank you I really need that," I said, she smiled and nodded, then the sound of my stomach cut the silence and that caused us both to laugh.

"I'm really hungry and my kids can agree with me on that, can you get me something to eat please like pickles and salsa," I said, she laughs 

"Um I can try but I wouldn't get my hopes up they have nothing here," she said and got up 

"Thank you by the way for earlier, I really needed that hug," I said, and nobbed and walked away. 

I began to fidget with my fingers and placed my hand on my stomach and smile. 

"I know we have been through hell, but soon we will be ok and your dad will be happy to be a dad and we will move away altogether as we promised," I said to them, I know they can't hear me yet, but me saying it out loud got me a little bit of hope, then the sound of my hospital door opening got my attention. 

"Did they have-" I stopped mid-sentence when I saw that it was Ghostface I quickly pressed the emergency button before I was knocked out by the end of the knife.
