Savior

Chapter 14: Destroyed

Chapter 14: Destroyed

- seven months after the last chapter-

I climb out of bed and water pools out around me, out of nowhere. Soon, a sharp pain follows. I look down, blood is dripping down my legs. I yank my phone off it's charger, dial Carl's number, wait for him to answer." What the h*ll do you want?" He groans, I check the time, 2:34 AM." Sorry to wake you, but I need you right now." I admit. I'm pretty sure this is more urgent than sleep," Why do you need me?" He sighs," it's about the baby..." I start," What about it? Do you regret the abortion like I knew you would?" He asks," C-Carl, I didn't get the abortion... I think I'm in la...!" I choke back a scream." I'm on my way, Tia..." I here the shuffling of sheets and know he's telling the truth." I know we broke up after the dinner that night, but I knew you would always be here for us and I knew you would want to be here for the birth..." I whisper, the blood is now a puddle beneath me. I've already fallen, I'm getting so sleepy... Maybe, I'll just take a little nap. Carl can wake me when he gets here... soon, the darkness consumes me...

Carl's POV

I heard a crash, not soon after she finished speaking. I bolt to her house, bust down her door, and find her passed out on the floor in her room. She's surrounded by her own blood. I pick her up and start carrying towards my house.

I lay her down in my bed and run to Jessie and my dad's room. I still haven't talked to him since that night we announced Tia's pregnancy." Jessie, TIA'S HAVING THE BABY!" I yell. Jessie jumps out of bed and starts yelling," SHE'S WHAT NOW?" I explain what I know and she jumps into action.

I've been sitting in the living room for almost ten hours now. Jessie said it was best if I stayed away, she knows I still love her. I pull my sleeve up and trace the marks on my arm. Tiny little fingers find there way to them soon after. The small child in front of me looks up at me and I start fighting back the tears. Judith looks so much like mom now, her facial features anyways. I pick her up and hold her to my chest." I love you, Judith, never forget that." I whisper in to her ear. We've been trying to teach her how to talk, it hasn't worked yet, so I'm not expecting an answer." I wub ooh, bwuber..." she coos. ( a/n: translation: "I love you, brother). I smile at Judith and hug her a little tighter. I let go and sit her on my leg. Since she learned to walk she's been getting in to everything, so she's gotten a lot skinnier, but she's also gotten taller to. She's about three feet tall now. We also have figured out that she's three now. We also gave her a birthday, since we figured dates out. I break from my thoughts as I hear a cry, and then, silence. I stand up with Judith in my arms and start walking towards the door. I hand her off to my dad and force my way past Ron and Jessie. I drop to my knees beside her bed, and just stare. I stare at her once healthy features, she's still beautiful though. Her, at one time, semi tanned skin is now pail and bloody. Her shirt is covering her now flat abdomen. I pull it up to her rib cage and stare at the bandaged wound. I can't believe I caused that. I stand up and turn around," Where is it? My baby?" I ask, barely keeping my voice steady. Jessie hands me a small blue blanket. I look down to see a baby with extremely thin, almost nonexistent, hair and pail blue eyes." What's his name?" Jessie asks, I thought for a moment." I want to wait for Trista's opinion on this matter." I state," Until then, I'll call him little buddy. That was her nickname for her brother." I sat in the chair next to Tia's bed and just waited and stared.

Trista's POV

"AND CUT!" Robert yelled. I sat up in the bed, pulled my shirt down, and walked over to Chandler. I took baby Toby out of his arms and held him close." Your a little cutie aren't you?" I cooed, he did a little baby babble." Yes you are! Yes you are!" I said in my baby voice." Weirdo." I heard Chandler mumble." Shut it, Chandler. Just because your still not used to being shipped with me does not mean you have to act like you hate me." I say with venom. I walk over to Toby and I's trailer and sit down in the little living room part.

A/N: Major plot twist! I will continue with Trista and Chandler, along with Carl and Tia, in one book. See how the two stories end up knitting together to help Trista and Chandler on there feeling about each other.
