Seven Minutes in Heaven ✗ jimmy fallon

14. It's a...

9 months later

I slowly awoke to feeling something damp spread across me. I sat up, throwing the covers off of me quietly so I didn't wake up Jimmy, even though he was a really light sleeper. I took a look at the sheets, and it looked like somebody spilled water everywhere.

"Noel..." Jimmy groaned, shifting. "Why is it wet? Did you piss yourself?"

It took me a minute to realize what was happening. "Jimmy, the baby's coming."

----

Jimmy and I had immediately driven to the hospital and got into a room immediately. My stomach was in so much excruciating pain that I was sobbing. He called Marion and Daniella, and they were on their way.

"Fuck, fuck, fuck!" I screamed, contracting. Jimmy squeezed my hand as I winced while the pain slowly settled down. It hurt so much, I couldn't take it.

All of a sudden, the door opened. Marion and Daniella rushed into the room, their fingers intertwined. "Oh my God, what the fuck?!" Marion said. Both of them were still in their pajamas---so was Jimmy---and they had dark circles under their eyes.

"I know, I'm sorry," I said, squinting my eyes.

"Why are you sorry?" Daniella asked, standing beside my bed and resting her hand on my baby bump.

"Because it's five in the fucking morning and I'm about to push a human out of my reproductive hole."

"Don't be sorry. We wouldn't miss this for the world," Marion stood on the other side of my bed, placing her hand on top of Daniella's. I smiled, grateful for the amazing friends I had. "How much have you dilated so far?"

"Three," I murmured, feeling another contraction coming. I let out a groan, wanting everything to just be over and done with already.

As if on cue, a nurse walked in. A young, short brunette with thin lips. "Hey, how are you feeling, Noel?"

I laughed. "Fantastic," I said sarcastically. "How much have I dilated?"

She paused. "Five."

This was going by a little faster than I thought. "How much longer do you think it'll be?"

"I don't know, hon. Depends. Maybe another hour or two?"

I moaned irritably.

----

It's been another hour and a half, and I have only dilated up to seven. This was pure torture. I kept contracting every five fucking minutes.

The time being, all four of us chatted.

"Do you guys remember the night you guys went into Seven Minutes in Heaven?" Daniella brought up, immediately bringing me back. "Man, what a fun night. Do you guys think everything would be the same if I had never thrown that party?"

What If

"Noel, we needa find you a date," Marion said. It was after the last day of school, and my two best friends (aka Ms. and Ms. Popularity) kept pressuring me to find someone to date. They both knew that I have never been in an actual relationship, not to mention that I had also graduated a virgin, so now they were being pushy.

"Guys, I don't need you guys to help me. I can find someone on my own. Someone who I really love," I replied, rolling my eyes. "Let's just let it go, okay?"

"No, we will not let it go!" Marion chimed in. "Noel, you are a smart, sweet, kind, beautiful girl. Any guy would be lucky as fuck to have you as a girlfriend. We're going to get you the right guy, and you will thank us!"
