Wrapped Around Your Finger (M.C)

Chapter 35

I'm 8 months pregnant today. Michael and the guys are coming home from tour in 4 weeks. I hope that they will be home in time for the birth of our children.

I looked at the few names left for the babies. Michael and I agreed that he'd choose the final name for the boy and is choose the final name for the girl. I had two names that I really like written down. Maya and Rosalie. I studied them for days now deciding on which one would be the final name so I could tell Michael.

Just as I was thinking of him, he Skyped me. I remembered how it was his day off and he would call me when he woke up. "Hey Ashleigh. How is your stomach?" He asked.

"Good. Zack just left. I'm having a difficult time deciding on a name though." I admitted.

"Don't stress about it too much. Let me hear the names."

"Maya and Rosalie." I told him.

"Hmmm, I like them both. Rosalie is kinda like a longer version of Rose and Rose is your middle name and that's adorable. Then there's Maya which is just cute without a reasoning." he thought out loud.

"So what are you saying?" I asked him.

"I'm saying that it's a tough choice. You have time to think about it." He reasoned.

"Not much." I showed him my belly. "8 months today."

"Wow! Time flew by really quick!" He exclaimed. I nodded my head.

"Is there any way that you could come home early? I'm in a lot of pain recently."

"I don't think so, but hey 3 weeks!"

"I thought it was 4?" I said more as a question.

"3." He double checked

"Yay!" I yelled. "I'll be right back. The delivery man is here." I said placing the laptop on the babies dresser.

When I came back Michael was talking to himself, or so I thought. I heard a little bit of sobbing through the speaker. "I can't believe that I'm going to be a dad!" He shouted out loud. I smiled and tears formed in my eyes. I was expecting a call from my doctor about the babies.

As soon as I thought of it, my phone rang. "Hang on Michael, it's the doctor." I said and he muted his mic still being able to hear me and what I was saying.

Michael's POV

"I seriously cant believe I am going to be a father in a month! I'm the happiest that ive ever been." I said when Ashleigh went for the food that she ordered. When she came back I wiped away my tears.

She had a call to answer from the doctors so I muted my mic still hearing what she was saying. I told her to put it on speaker but I forgot that my mic was muted and it was too late.

"Yes... Yes... No... No... No... What is it? Really? Are you sure? Oh my god. What can I do?" Ashleigh was saying through her phone. I was eager to know what was being said and I began to get impatient. Why was Ashleigh crying? "Uh huh... No I haven't... Yeah he knows... Okay. Thank you doctor... bye." She cried even harder. What the fuck happened?

"Ashleigh are you okay? What's wrong? Ashleigh?" I earned the other boys attention then especially Luke's.

"Ashleigh, what the fuck is the matter?" Luke cried.

"Ash? Seriously what happened?" Calum wondered.

"Is she gonna be okay?" Ashton asked.

Ashleigh's POV

I answered the phone. "Hello, is this Ashleigh Hemmings?" "Yes" "You're 8 months pregnant?" "Yes" "Is your boyfriend with you?" "No" "Is he anywhere close?" "No" "Is there any way that he could come by my office this week?" "No" "Alright, so I have some bad news for you." What is it?" "One of your babies could be born ill." Really?" "Yes." "Are you sure?" "It's very likely with what we've tested." "Oh my god. What can I do?" "There's nothing that you can do than help for the best."

I've been told that before and the best didn't happen. That was until I became excited about being a mother. "Okay" "uh huh" "Have you eaten anything that you shouldn't have?" "No I havent" "Does Mr. Clifford know about a month until he has to come home?" "Yeah he does." "Keep doing what you've been doing and eat even healthier." "Okay." "Alright thank you for your time, Miss Hemmings." "Thank you doctor." "Have a nice day." "Bye." and I hung up crying my eyes out.

Sympathy started rolling in. Michael turned on his mic. "Ashleigh are you okay? What's wrong? Ashleigh?" Michael gasped.

"Ashleigh, what the fuck is the matter?" Luke cried.

"Ash? Seriously what happened?" Calum questioned

"Is she gonna be okay?" Ashton asked.

I couldn't answer their questions because I couldn't stop typing so I texted him it instead. 'The doctor said that one of the babies are most likely going to be ill and there's nothing we can do about it. He said he ran tests through me and with what he found its most likely.' I typed. Then I pressed send.

Michael read the text, threw his phone, and stormed out of the tour bus. "I'll go check on him," Ash said.

Luke picked up his phone and unlocked it since the passcode was 6453, which if u used the letters it would spell out 'Mike'.

Luke read the text and had tears forming at the brims of his eyes. Then Calum read it and punched the wall. I texted Michael's phone again. 'can u guys pls just hope and pray for the best?' Luke nodded. 'And is Mikey okay?' I texted. Luke went to check. Before he could, Ashton ran in and grabbed the computer.

"Listen, Michael is a wreck. He was sitting on the ground mumbling to himself and yelled something like 'this is all my fault!' And then he stormed off. I tried to follow him, but he threatened to hurt me. He said he needed time alone. He also said how he wanted to be back home with you." Hearing that made me cry more.

"Bring me to him please?!" I cried. The boys all went out searching for Mike. Once they found him I yelled his name. "Mikey!" I yelped.

"Ashleigh? Fuck, I'm sorry."

"Michael, it's not your fucking fault!" I argued.

"Yes it is. If I was with you instead of traveling the world, I would be helping you by eating as healthy as can be. I see what you've been eating. I know you're allowed to, but I would have made the healthiest things for you and this wouldn't have happened." He gripped his hair with his tears falling.

"Michael, that's not true. You don't know, we could still be in this situation. Just know that it's not your fault and don't think it is. Please, don't threaten Ashton and don't take the pain out on anybody. Now go back to the bus, get a pizza or something, and take a nap."

"Okay."

AWWWW. THIS IS SOOOO SAD:-( IM SORRY IF YOU CRIED A LITTLE (especially u Ashleigh)
