Iris' POV
~~~~~~
The world seemed like it was moving in slow motion as they ran down the path. I didn't realize it but I had ran to them. I grabbed Luke into a quick hug before dragging him to an ambulance.
Their skin clung to their bones. their hair was dull and lifeless but their eyes shined with thankfulness and love.
Louis laid Brynn in the ambulance next to Luke on the gurney. I hopped in beside them as the ambulance drove away.
I held Brynn's hand as tears of happiness streamed down our cheeks.
'Hey.' I murmured.
'Hey.' she replied with a sob.
'Long time no see.' I joked.
'You got that right!' Luke Chimed from beside her.
'How many months?' I asked looking at her stomach.
'9...' she smiled.
'Oh god. Who's baby is it?' I questioned worriedly. please don't let it be peters
'Luke's.' she blushed hard.
I was shocked. I looked at Luke to find him staring lovingly at her. he held her tighter and kissed her shoulder.
'We have to get you there immediately.' I stated looking up at the paramedics.

'How is she?' I asked the doctor when we came into the waiting room.
'She's malnourished, underweight, bruised, cut, and scarred but other than that, she's doing fine.' She announced. I sighed in relief.
'How are Calum and Luke?' I asked timidly.
She sighed. 'Luke had to be knocked out because he refused to be separated from Brynn. We had to do some surgery on his arm. He now as a metal rod and screws in his arm. Calum has had the bullet removed. he lost a lot of blood but he's going to be fine.'
'Thank god.' I breathed.
The sound of running feet could be heard as Jamie, Louis and the other two boys.
They threw questions at me and I threw them back before a very angry Luke stormed into the waking room.

Luke's POV
~~~~~~~~
'Iris, you tell them that I am the father and that I should be able to see Brynn!' I screamed. I had been trying to see her for the pat ten minutes but they wouldn't let me in.
'Luke they're not letting anyone in.' iris stated calmly.
'Why the fuck not?' I yelled.
'Peter escaped and we know he would come for Brynn.' she said worriedly.
'Can- Can I at least see my kid?' I looked down at my bare blistered feet and played with my arm cast.
'Luke there's something you should know.' she sighed.
Taking my hand, Iris led me through the hospital hall ways. we stopped in front of a large glass window. on the other side were many sleeping infants, one of which was i hoped was mine.
'Brynn had a cesarian section 7 hours ago. They were worried the baby would be unhealthy due to her malnutrition, the baby didn't make it.' Iris informed me. My heart stopped.
'Where is she?' I looked out at the many infants through the windows as we began walking down the hallway.
'Down the hall .' She pointed. We continued the track down the hall and reached a room.
How would I break the news to her?

Brynn's POV
~~~~~~~~~~
i woke up to a pesky beeping sound and a dull throb in my lower back.
"Let me see her now!" a masculine voice screamed.
The door slammed open. I sat up harshly causing extreme pain to flood through my lower area. Letting out a scream of pain I flopped back, not before catching a glimpse of blonde hair.
"Brynn!" Luke screamed as he came to a halt beside my bed.
Even in a hospital gown, he was gorgeous. "hey luke."
"Thank god!" he breathed. several guards ran in and grabbed into luke.
"Leave him!" iris screamed running in.
"Hey iris." I smiled as she came to a halt beside my bed.
"Hey Brynn." she replied.
"What happened?" I questioned as I tired to face them, only causing pain to erupt in my lower region.
"They did an immediate c-section to make sure the baby was fine but..." Iris looked toward Luke with a sad face.
"But what?" I asked concerned.
"I got it." luke said sadly.
"I'll just leave you two. I have to go see Calum." Iris stated. She walked out of the room a depressed expression on her face.
I groaned as I tried to sit up. "here let me help." luke lifted me into a seated position. even with one arm, he was pretty strong.
"Thanks."
He sat back down in his chair with a groan as I admired his strong features.
I looked up to find luke looking down at the floor, his eyebrows knitted together in confusion. reaching out I ran my fingers through his hair.
His blue orbs met my green ones as his hand caught my wrist. He brought it down and kissed my knuckles.
"Luke?" I whispered.
"Hmm?"
"Are you okay?" I murmured. He scooted closer to me.
"No..."
"Why not?"
"Everything's my fault."
"No it's not. We're fine. look at me. we're all okay and we're a family."
"But-"
"But nothing! Now what was Iris saying about the baby?" I asked with a smile.
He sighed before running his hands through his hair. "Luke what's wrong?" I questioned.
"When... when you got here they did a caesarian section. The baby... the baby wasn't breathing. He had no heartbeat." Luke recounted. his eyes met mine and I watched in shock as tears tumbled down his cheeks.
"What?" I began to panic. I scrambled to throw the blankets off of myself. "No! No, you're lying!"
"No, Brynn! Why would I lie about this?!" He asked angrily.
Could life get any worse?
