~Leila's POV~

I hadn't told any one else about the miscarriage yet. I was honestly afraid to. It makes it out to look like I'm a bad mother, or I didn't do everything possible to rid the stress that caused it from my life. I needed to tell Sam, though and that's what I was going to do. I sighed as I picked up the phone and called him. I was nervous, but I knew this is what had needed to be done. 

-Phone Call-

(S-Sam, L-Leila)

S- Yeah?

L~ Hey... This is Leila... I needed to tell you something. Do you have the time?

S- No shit, dumb fuck, I know who this is. What did you need? I'm a little busy right now with sound check. 

L- Sam. I fucking had a miscarriage with your fucking kid. That doesn't bother you the slightest bit?

S- Look, I've got to go. I'll text you later or something. I don't know. 

L- Yeah. Whatever. 

-End Of Phone Call-

Wow... How low of him. 

~Sam's POV~

I can't believe how I am literally living my dream. All of this happened in such a few short months. I have everything I have ever wanted now, and more. But this whole thing about Leila just calling me telling about the loss of her baby just irks me for some reason. Was she the reason the baby lost it's life? Did she do it intentionally? I don't know that she would so something like that, but anything was possible, I guess. No matter how hard I tried to get that thought out of my mind, I just couldn't. 

"Man, what's wrong?" Michael asked. 

Michael, more commonly known as Michael Ray,  was the guy that I would be touring with this year. He was a new country singer as well, and personally, he had some really good songs. 

"It's a long story," I said, trailing off. 

"Well, I have an hour 'til I go on stage, so let's hear it?" Michael suggested. 

"I guess. Well, as you know, Leila, my ex girlfriend was pregnant and the kid was mine. Well, she miscarried and it's kinda shocking." I replied

"Wait, you weren't planning on being there in the child's life? You weren't going to try and work it out with your son or your daughters mother for the child's sake? What the hell, Sam? I thought you were better than that" Michael said. 

"I just, I don't know. I'm afraid. I'm afraid that I'm still going to have to be in a relationship with Leila. I'm afraid that I would be a bad father. I guess that's why I basically ran from my problems." I said.

"What makes you a bad father, is running away and not being there for your child. You're half the reason of that kid existing, for the short time that it did. Have you ever come to think that maybe you are the reason Leila was under so much stress that pushed her to the point of loosing the baby?" Michael asked

"What the hell? You're saying I am the reason for her loosing that thing?" I yelled. 

I can't believe this. I really can't.

~Michael's POV~

Holy crap, Sam is such an ass... I mean, really? He's afraid of being a dad? Maybe he should have thought about that before he fucked a girl. 

There's one thing I am going to do, though. When Sam goes out on stage, I'm going to attempt to find Leila's number. If they can't get back together on their own, then I'll be the one to make sure they get back together. I can only imagine how much shit Leila is going through right now, and Sam needs to be there for her.
