(Amanda's pov 1 month later.)

My morning sickness has died down. My cravings are worst than ever. And my bump is a little noticeable. Shawn and I already decorated the baby room. Well, not really, we just painted it blue, added a small crib and a bookshelf full of baby stories. Shawn was at work so I decided that Matt and I would have our day out together. Matt was flying in from LA and we decided to meet up to have lunch together. We call it "Manda"day.

There was a knock on our door, i grabbed my purse and phone and walked to the door and saw Smiling Matt.

"Hey! Long time no see." I said giving him a nice long hug.

"Hey i can see your baby bump!" Matt said lightly patting my belly.

"Yeah, 7 more painful months to go!" I sighed taking a look at my small belly that held a child in it.

"Oh yeah, Mahogany and I are having a baby also." Matt smirked at me before my face turned into shock.

"OH MY GOD MATT! Im so happy for you!" I said before jumping on him, having him a huge hug.

"Hey don't crush the baby!" Matt giggled as i pulled away from the hug.

"So where are we going?" I asked as we were heading towards his car.

"Sushi King, i know how much you love sushi." Matt said before running the car.

"Hell yea i do." I said excitedly while rubbing my hands in excitement.

"Okay, im paying for everything by the way." Matt said giving me a long stare.

"Ugh fine." I groaned, i hated how people always had to pay for me.

"Jeez, you ate like 5 platters of sushi!" Matt looked at me in utter shock.

"Hey, thats what you get when your preggo." I shrugged before letting out a soft burp.

"Whatever, im going to pay the bill and we can head back to your house." Matt said before signing the check.

We walked into Matt's car and I turned on the radio. Oh my god Careless Whisper. That was Shawn and I wedding song and it brings me so many memories.

Matt turned up the volume and we started singing on top of our lungs.

I sang the first verse.

Time can never mend
The careless whisper of a good friend
To the heart and mind
If your answer's kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find
I should have known better, yeah

I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes

Then both of us belted put the song on top of our lungs.

I'm never gonna dance again
Guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste a chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with yo-

"HOLY SHIT MATT WATCH OUT!" I cried before everything went black.

(Shawn's pov)

I was just finish with giving a customer her medication before i received a phonecall.

"Hello?"

"Uh yes, is this Shawn Mendes?"

"Yes, is there a problem?"

"Yes, your wife and best friend were in a car crash an hour ago. And I believe your wife is pregnant?"

I was in shock. But mostly, i was scared shitless. Oh my god i hope the baby and Amanda are okay.

"Yes, are they both okay?"

"Amanda and the baby are fine, its just your friend, thats not okay."

"Okay, im coming."

I quickly hung up the phone and took off my jacket and ran to my car. I cant let Matt leave us again. It took me 5 minutes to arrive to the hospital. I probably got some speeding tickets but who cares, my best friend might die for all that matters.

"Hi, Matt Espinosa?" I asked urgently to the lobby woman.

"Room 204, but he's in surgery right now so you cant enter." The lady said. I said thank you and ran into where the room was. Mahogany and Amanda were sitting on the chairs as they turned there heads to me.

Amanda ran towards me and gave me a hug while sobbing into my chest.

"Is Matt okay? Are YOU okay?" I said worriedly.

"I'm fine, the baby is fine. Matt put his arm around my belly so the impact would go to his arm, not the baby. There's glass all over him, he might not make it." Amanda said before she collapsed into my chest sobbing her eyes out.

"Hey hey hey, its going to be alright, Matt will fight through this." I whispered into her hair while patting it lightly.

"What if he doesnt? Mahogany is going to raise the baby all alone without him." She said looking into my eyes.

"He wont die, and Mahogany wont raise the child alone." I said sternly, Amanda opened her mouth to say something, but she closed it instantly.

"Mahogany are you alright?" I said walking towards her.

"Um yeah, i don't know what i would do without Matt." She sniffled. I gave her a nice warm hug as she started crying into my shoulder, causing some of her Makeup to smudge on my shirt.

"I called Nash, Cameron, Taylor, The Jacks, Aaron, everyone, there coming soon." Amanda said.

"Um Mahogany Lox?" The doctor said exiting out of Matt's room.

"Yes? Thats me." Mahogany said sternly before getting up from her chair.

"Um yes, Matt dislocated his arm, we
were able to get the glass out, but he is fine now but he wont be able to leave until next week." The doctor said looking into his clipboard.

"Oh okay." Mahogany sighed in relief. A huge amount of weight was lifted from my chest. Matt was alright, and thats all that mattered right now.
