Sam's POV

The few months Emily spent with me were actually fun. I was almost never bored and it helped me forget little about... Him. Emily was a very fun person with a strong character and a hilarious sense of humour. She was now in her eight month of pregnancy. I could hear her baby's heart beating inside her and it was such a sweet thing that I had become attuned to it. Since she's huge now I had to take up the cooking. At first it was a disaster but after a week or two I got it. I was going to cook her some meat as she'd need the iron during the pregnancy with baked potatoes and steamed vegetables.

I was at the supermarket checking out my groceries when the my mobile rang. I paid the salesgirl and picked up the phone.

"Sam! The baby's coming!" Emily shouted in my ear panting as if it was the end of the world.

"Huh?" I asked her confused like hell. 

"I've just had my first contraction. He's coming now, he won't wait till the hospital." she said. She was determined that the baby was a boy while I thought it was a girl. 

"Contraction?"Well, I had been away from the human world, so excuse me if I forgot the terms.

"Yeah, that pain you feel when Ahh..." she finished with a scream. 

"I'll be there in a sec. Try um... Breathing. Don't worry I'll get to you." I hung up and looked around me. Nobody was looking at me so I took off in vamp speed. The car would only slow me down now, so I had to run to our house, which was about half an hour drive. I arrived in ten minutes and burst through the front door, not bothering to use the key, so the wood around the lock had broken. I grimaced but when I saw that Emily was outstretched on the floor, legs open and shouting in pain, I hurried to get to her.

"Emily, why didn't you stay in your bed?" I asked her as I wondered which was the best way to move her to the bed. 

"Well, I wasn't expecting him for another month, that's why." she said through grunts. 

"Come on, I'm going to carry you to your bed." I said and put my arms under her neck and her knees.

"How are you gonna-" I cut her her off and was already in the bedroom by the time she was starting to stammer.

"You're not human, are you?" she asked with surprising intensity. Well I had given my abilities away this night so I might as well answer her truthfully. 

"Nope." I said as I put blankets underneath her lower body.

"Thanks for coming down for me." she told me with unusual seriousness.

"Huh?" I said and stopped what I was doing to look at her.

"You're an angel. I knew it!" she told me with a smile on her face which still showed she was being serious. I snorted. Yeah right, angel with pointy teeth. 

"You're delusional, Em." I told her with a smile. She shrugged though she wouldn't say anything against her theory. Suddenly she screamed without any notice. When I touched her skin it felt hot and I could feel the vibrations her heart and her baby's were producing. 

"I'm gonna die, Sam." she said as she screamed and kicked. I held her legs firmly and ripped her baggy sweatpants off of her. Her panties were stained with blood. The scent hit my throat like a bullet. I felt myself liking my lips. I literally smacked myself. 

"Snap out of it!" I shouted at myself. Emily looked at me questioningly though agony soon replaced her expression. I took of her panties trying hard not to feel too awkward while doing it but failing miserably. Stripping your best friend is NOT something anyone should have to do. I stopped feeling awkward when I saw the state her vagina was. A little head, barely recognisable was visible. I felt like I was going to puke. The reason I had despised biology when I was human was that these kind of things made me nauseous. And clearly immortality hadn't changed that. Emily's screams woke me up from my day dreaming.
