We Only Come Out At Night

Chapter 12

Gisella's POV

On the way to the hospital, Vinny and I were riding in my car listening to Motionless In White's album Creatures while I was driving and he was sitting in the passenger's seat. London In Terror came on and Vinny started tapping on his legs the drum part.
"Sounds like you know this song," I laughed as I signaled my lane switch.
Vinny smiled and replied, "Yeah, you could say that."
"So what were you trying to tell me before I got my sister's phone call?" I asked him.
"Oh, nothing. Just that I'm the touring drummer for Motionless In White. No big deal," He made the biggest smile I've ever seen him make.
I almost slammed on the breaks and screamed, "VINCENZO, THIS IS HUGE. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT 'NO BIG DEAL'? WE NEED TO CELEBRATE."
Vinny laughed at me while I flipped out over this. This was huge and he just said it so nonchalantly.
We pulled up to the women's wing of the hospital and I swear to God you could hear my sister screaming. 22 and she's got her first baby. She is happy and I am happy for her. She has a good man who has a good family who will treat her right.
Well, right now I don't think she is that happy. I wouldn't be if there was a child coming out of me.
I parked the car and grabbed Vinny by the hand and drug him behind me. We reached the second floor of the hospital wing and got into the room just in time to see the head come out. My sister was screaming and held a vice grip on her boyfriend's hand.
She saw me and her eyes lit up.
"Gisella! I swear to God if you didn't show to this, I was going to kill you with my umbilical cord!" She screamed and let go of her boyfriend's hand to hold mine. Yep, she sure has a strong grip.
A loud thud happened behind me and I turned to see Vinny passed out on the floor. I did not take him as the squeamish type.
