Best Friends (A Joe Sugg Fanfiction)

Chapter Twenty-Four

EMILY'S POV

A couple more months passed and I was now 7 months pregnant and I had a little belly but it wasn't the size it was supposed to be. I was worried a little bit now about taking care of a child on my own. I was getting out of the bath one morning when I had a stabbing pain in my stomach. I started to scream this was killing me. 'HELP!' I scream but no one was here. 'PLEASE!' I was still screaming in panic. Jim and Tanya were away in America on holiday, I had no one here in London to help me. 'Please...' I started to get weaker and cried. I got my phone and called the one person who might be in London. Joe. 'Hello?' He asked on the other end.

'Joe! Help me!' I screamed into the phone. 'Please...' I cried.

'Wait... where are you?' Joe asked sounding a little worried.

'My house! Please! Help me!' I screamed so loudly into the phone. 'Are you in London?! Please get here! Its the baby!' I screamed crying.

'I'm on my way' then he hung up, I hope he gets here soon... I looked down and I was covered in blood. 'No... Please don't leave me baby' I cried to my stomach, 'I need you...' I broke down. I heard a knock on the door, it was Joe. I tried to lift up to unlock the door but as I did the pain was unbearable and I let out a massive scream. At that moment I heard the door break open and Joe came running over. He saw the blood and his eyes widened. 'Help me please' I cried trying to stop the pain. He picked me up bridal style and carried me to his car I was still crying. 'It's going to be okay' Joe said calmly to me but I could sense the doubt in his voice. 

We arrived at the hospital and they rushed me straight to a room, Joe carried me to the bed and placed me down. He then sat on the chair next to me and grabbed my hand to show that he was here for me. I let out another scream as a sharp pain came to my stomach. A doctor ran in and did an ultra sound scan on my stomach then they felt around my stomach. 'I'm sorry to tell you this but... your going to have to give birth to your baby today. He has died in your stomach. Still born, I'm so sorry' He said and I broke down. I let go of Joe's hand, 'no' I cried over and over again. Why? He was all I had left... 

After 12 hours of induced labour Oscar was born, stillborn. He was beautiful still though from just his face he looked exactly like Joe... 'mummy loved you...' I cried kissing him. Joe looked at him then just walked out. Charming, never bothered with this baby then just leaves when I need him most. I hate him. I handed Oscar back over to the midwives and then turned with my back towards the door and cried for hours. 'Emily?' I heard a voice say. I turned to see Joe standing in the doorway.

'Just leave me alone Joe' I said angrily.

'I'm sorry alright? I'm really sorry' 

'Its too little, too late' I cried not looking at him, I couldn't bare to see his face right now. He didn't take that for an answer and came over to the bed to kiss me on the forehead. I let him and then started to cry even more. 'Why did you have to sleep with your ex?' I said to him because I loved him still and didn't want things to end up how they did. 'I don't know it was a stupid thing to do...' he said tears coming to his eyes. 'Yes it was because now we can never be how we used to be...' I cried.

'I know' he said sadly, 'if I could take it back then I would' I felt one of his tears drop on my cheek. I wanted to pull him in for a hug but seeing him again brought back all of the times we had argued and especially the day that he slept with his ex. I couldn't look at him without thinking about what he had done. Would I ever be able to look at him again without thinking about it? 'You're still wearing my bracelet that I got you?' he asked looking at my wrist.

'It's a nice bracelet' I said and then I took it off and gave it back to him. I could see his face drop when I gave it to him, 'I'm sorry' I said and he stayed standing there speechless. I was still in pain but seeing him look like he did hurt me even more. 'I'll just go...' he said as he turned to face the door. I couldn't say anything, I didn't want him to go but I didn't know what to say to him. I saw him place the bracelet on the side before I heard him mutter, 'in case you change your mind...' I could hear the sadness in his voice and my heart was breaking. 'I love you' I whispered so he couldn't hear me. Then a tear or two fell down my cheeks. 'I really love you' I said a little louder this time while crying. 'I wished I'd have told you before you left...' I said crying some more. I had lost him for good now... it was all my fault...
