*I decided to add a bit more to this chapter and the following ones because I feel that I didn't focus on the miscarriage as much as I should've. (Maria won't be getting pregnant again because I know you guys don't want that. Maybe at the end for the epilogue but that's probably a long way away aha.

Maria Bianchi
I got a message from my childhood friend, Juliette from Monaco asking if i wanted to come and stay with her for a bit. I smiled widely at my phone and replied to her thanking her and telling her I'll make my way over.

I walked up to a desk asking if there are any available flights to Monaco and there was one seat left on the flight at 20:00.

I got onto the plane awkwardly smiling at the person I was sitting next to who look pissed that someone was next to them.

Through out the flight the cramps in my stomach were getting worse. I tried to ignore it but it was getting really hard too.

When the plane landed I collected my luggage and walked to the arrivals. I saw Juliette standing there with a sign with my name on it. I laughed running over to her as she squealed bringing me into a tight hug.

I winced pulling away, "Oh Mari, are you okay?" Juliette held my shoulders.

"I'm fine!" I forced a smile. "Oh Juliette I missed you so much." I hugged her again.

"I missed you too girl." She brightly smiled taking one of my bags.

We walked over to her car as she kindly took my bags and placed them in the back.

Juliette got into the drivers seat and turned to me.

"I'm quite surprised you didn't bring your lover boy." Juliette winked as I turned to her.

"Oh. He's busy doing- driver stuff." I chuckled as she starts to drive.

Juliette drives us to her apartment and we go into the kitchen.

She opened the cupboard and pulled out a bottle of wine.

She held it up and smirked at me, "Drink?"

"Why not." I shrugged as she poured my a glass and slid it across the table.

Me and Juliette ended up drinking the whole bottle and then going to bed.

I laid in bed looking at my phone when a message appeared on my phone.

Charles
Maria where are you? You can't just run off like this.. not again. Please tell me where you are and we can sort this out.

I slightly smiled at the message as my fingers hovered over the keyboard but suddenly my smile disappeared and something in my mind told me not to reply.

"Okay so the emergency numbers are here, there's plenty of food in the fridge and the pantry and if you need anything and I mean anything just call me." Juliette rambled.

"Julie im fine honestly, and anyways I think I'm just going to have a lazy day." I told her as she nodded.

Juliette hugged me and quickly rushed off to work.

I walked over to the sofa and tried to find a movie as my phone buzzed.

Charles
Maria I can see you are reading the messages. Can you at least tell me you are okay I'm loosing my mind here.

I looked down at the message and shook my head placing my phone upside down.

I started to watch a random movie when I felt that same sharp pain in my stomach return.
