Deims POV

/////

After about 30 minutes on the highway, we pulled into a parking lot.
'Mary brigh building
Mayo hospital'
(This isn't in the town they live in, but whatever. I was just there and it's very prestigious. They are literally the best hospital in the world! They have a ton of world wide people that came to Minnesota just to work there!! OK continue reading:))

Kristen parked and I climbed out of the Grand prix. Matt took my hand.
"Are you nervous?" He asked.
I shook my head - and then noddded.
I smiled, and he returned it.

We came up to a desk.

"Could you tell me what room and floor Alecia Johnson is on?" Kristen asked

"Floor 9 room 4392. Here's some passes . Write your name on them with this sharpie." The lady said.

We all took a pass and wrote our name on it. We put it around our neck and headed to the Mary Brigh west elevators.

I pressed the 9 button. Man these elevators are fast!

"Alright guys let's go." Matt said as we reached the 9th floor.

We all walked to the "birth' desk and asked for directions to Alecias room.
We got directions and knocked on the door and walked in. She layer there. Doctors surrounding her bed. I heard a faint beep. Butt not just any beep.

Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

I clover red my face and backed out of the room. I sprinted to the bathroom. Tears streaming down My face.

I reached into my side bag and pulled out my razor.

One for my body.

One for my face.

One for my mom.

One for Alecia.

One for Tommy (my ex)

One for michael (also an ex)

And one because I made a promise to Alecia and I just broke it.

There was a knock on the door.

"Almost finished!" I yelled.

"Deim..." it was matt.

"Matt.." I mimicked him.

He sighed.

I rinsed my arm off and bandaged it up. Then I pulled my sweater sleeve back down. I washed my face and flushed the toilet to make it seem like I went to the bathroom.

I unlocked the door and stepped out.

Matt and Kristen stood there s looking up from their phones at me.

"What?" I said
They shrugged
"Alecia," Kristen started
"She's...gone." tears streaming down my face again.

She was holding a..blanket?
"What's that?" I asked.
"Umm..as you know, Alecias husband Mike left her a week ago..and we were roommates and best friends in college all the way up to now. When you're pregnant, you write a Paper saying who you'd give the baby to if you pass on...and..she put my name down. So This beautiful baby boy is mine." She looked at the baby and smiled. Okay.

////

I was alone. I mean, I was only 18 (pretend she graduated with Matt already; ))

I think I'll have to sell the house. I'll be homeless! Tears came streaming down my face again.

"I HATE MYSELF!!" I screamed.

Suddenly, I heard footsteps downstairs..

I walked down stairs with my softball bat. I got ready to swing, but when I saw who it was, I immediately stopped myself.
