Eddie's P.O.V

1 day left till graduation...

I'm pacing back and forth, I've smoked five cigarettes within an hour. Which isn't that bad, but at the same time it is bad. I'm fucking nervous, really nervous.

(Y/n) is in the Doctor's office. They wanted to see how far along she was in the pregnancy.

Jesus Christ Eddie. What the actual fuck is wrong with you? She's fucking pregnant and you're not even working. Get a job, you idiot!

I looked up and noticed that (Y/n) was coming out into the waiting room. She didn't look at me at first, but when she saw me I noticed that she looked dejected.

"What happened?" I asked rushing over to her.

"There wasn't a heartbeat." She said quietly.

"What the hell do you mean there wasn't a heartbeat?" I asked. I held her tight as she cried.

"There was no heartbeat. The fetus is not alive, and they said that I'll end up miscarrying."

"I don't understand." I could feel the tears falling down my face.

"I just want to go."

I held her there for just a few more minutes before we went back to my house.

The ride home was silent.

Once we reached the house I helped her out of the van. I brought her to the room and let her lie down on the bed. I stayed in there with her, held her while she cried. Both of us mourned the loss of our unborn child. She was only seven weeks pregnant, and already the baby was gone.

I left her in bed and I went outside to smoke.

"Jesus Munson, you look rough." I heard Max's voice, I looked up and saw her standing in front of me.

My face was probably red and tear-stained. I know that my hair looks like a fucking bird's nest, but I didn't give a shit. The one woman I was madly in love with was growing a life inside of her, and it was gone just like that.

"What happened?" She asked genuinely.

Max sat down on the ground and waited for me to answer.

"Eddie, you can tell me. I'm your friend."

"I know." I was on the verge of tears. "God dammit," I shouted. I stood up and kicked the steps, I kicked and kicked until my toes were practically numb.

"Eddie, what the hell is going on?" Max asked trying to calm me down. She took my hand and held it tight.

"We were going to have a baby."

"What do you mean?"

"(Y/n) found out she was pregnant and we went to the doctors today to see how far along she was, but there was no fetal heartbeat."

"Oh my god." Max covered her mouth.

"They told her that she'll just miscarry." I couldn't help but get choked up. I wish I could take this pain from (Y/n).

"I am so sorry," Max said, wrapping her arms around me.

"I don't know what to do?"

"Just be there for (Y/n)."

"She's in there sleeping." I wiped the tears away from my eyes. "I feel so fucking terrible. I know that the two of us aren't exactly ready to become parents. But I know the two of us could have done okay."

"You guys will be amazing parents. It's just not time yet."

"Yeah, maybe this is a sign or something." I couldn't help but laugh. What the fuck was I saying? I didn't believe in that sort of stuff.
