I arrived at the hospital and sprinted to the front desk.

"Jillian Wright. Where is Jillian Wright!" I shouted.

"Ma'am, please calm down. We are currently very busy. Now, who are you looking for again?" said the lady who didn't look up from the computer sitting in front of her.

"JILLIAN WRIGHT!" I yelled again in an angry tone.

"Look here missy. There is no need for that tone. I am older than you and you should show me some damn respect!" She yelled back.

I was just about the yell something back at the snotty bitch sitting at the front test, but Tracy appeared from around the corner.

"Paisley. Come with me." Tracy said.

I walked towards Tracy and only looked back at the woman to give her a death glare.

"Look Paisley. Your mom. She um...Isn't doing so well." Tracy said worriedly.

"How long has she been here? She wasn't in home when I woke up. What's going on?" I asked all in one breath.

"Paisley. You need to relax. You are only going to make the situation worse. Now. I'm going to take you into my office and we are going to talk things over."

"Tracy. I want to see my mom." I said.

"I can't let you do that. She is in critical condition." Tracy said opening the door to her office.

I slipped inside and sat down in the chair that I normally do.

"Tracy. What is going on?" I asked teary eyed.

"Okay. Your mom called me very early this morning saying that she really didn't feel good. So I swing by, picked her up and brought her to the hospital. She didn't want you to worry about her. So she called me. Anyway. We got her in and we found that her cancer is stronger than ever. The doctors believe that it is from the stress of the baby and everything going on." Tracy explained.

I couldn't speak. I only sat back in my chair and began to cry.

"She doesn't have much longer Paisley. A couple hours at the most." She said eventually.

I only looked up at Tracy with pain in my eyes.

"Do you want to see her?" Tracy asked.

I nodded my head and stood up. Still unable to speak.

Tracy took me up to where my moms room was. She opened the door and let me in and came in after me.

My mom was lying there. Lifeless in her bed. I walked over to her and sat down beside her. I grabbed her hand and started to sob.

"I'll leave you two alone." Tracy said as she walked out of the room. I sat there. Holding her hand. And crying.

*Rob's POV*

We walked into the house from the car ride. It was almost midnight. The living room lights were on, but it wasn't my dad who was there.

"Aunt Amy?" Paisley said.

Suddenly. Paisley was running to the garage with tears in her eyes.

"Paisley wait." I said and tried to grab her wrist, but she slipped past.

"PAISLEY!" Her aunt yelled.

Paisley didn't come back. I heard the garage door open and to car leave.

"Where is she going?" I asked her Aunt who was sitting on the couch with her head in her hands.

"To see her mom." She said holding back tears.

"Where's her mom?"

"In the hospital." She said letting a tear slip.

"I'm going to go get Paisley." I said grabbing the set of keys for the other car.

"I'm coming with you!" Adam said.

"Same!" Chris and Glenn both said.

"Don't forget us." Dan, Gordie, and Amy all yelled.

Half us went in the truck that Paisley and her mom had and the other half went in Amy's car.

Once we got to the hospital we went up to the front desk to ask for help.

"Excuse me, but can you help us?" I asked. "We are looking for Jillian Wright. Do you know what room she is in?"

"God. Not her again." She said in a bitchy way.

"Excuse me? I need to find Jillian Wright." I said more aggressively.

"She is in the middle of something. I will come and get you when you can see her." She said with zero emotion. "Now. You will have to wait in the waiting room until she is ready."

They didn't even try to argue with the woman. It was clear they weren't going to win. So they all took a seat in the large, empty waiting room.

I decided I would text my dad just to let him know what was going on.

To: Papa Gronk
All of us are at the hospital waiting for Jillian. We need you to stay at home and take care of Jack. Thanks dad.

I put my phone back into my pocket and began to worry about what was happening.

*Paisley's POV*

I had cried myself to sleep with sitting next to my mom. When I woke up. She finally looked at me.

"Paisley. I need you to take care of my 2 little boys for me. Raise them Wright. And don't lose that man of yours..." She said.

Suddenly. Before I could speak. There was this long beeping sound that didn't stop. I turned to look at the heart rate monitor. It had flatlined.
