Then high school happens

The true meaning of life

Marci's POV

Z grabbed her phone and dialed someone's number. She grabbed my arm and pulled me out to the car.

The pain was so bad, I felt bad that I was screaming. I didn't want to disturb anyone.

"It's coming! Meet me at the hospital!" Z said to whoever was on the phone.

Shh hold on my love it's going to be alright. Just try to wait until you get to the hospital.

Z pulled up to the front entrance and nearly hit a tree. She pulled me out and to the front desk. "Her baby is coming! Please help! I've never done this before!" She yelled at the desk clerk.

A doctor and nurse rolled out a bed thingie and layer me down on it. "Z don't leave me!" I screamed, the pain was unbearable.

"Just breathe honey, it's gonna be alright, we're just gonna get you a room and Dr. Leboniz is gonna help take care of you. Just take deep breathes."

"AAAGH!!" I screamed. "But I need Z!"

They got me into the room, and quickly changed me into a weird dress thing.

Take it easy, bumblebee. It will be over soon...

"Mom?" I asked.

You can't see me but I'll be with you right now...

Z's POV

They wheeled Marci away, she yelled for me but another nurse slowed me down.

"What the hell!? Let me go! Marci needs me!"

"Ok I'll take you to her room, but you need to calm down please. You did a good job in getting her here."

"Yeah yeah whatever, I pushed down a pedal. Now bring me to her room!" I was getting impatient with this lady. Why do most people have to be annoying?

She led me to a room that was filled with screaming. "Marci I'm here now! Are you alright?"

"Z help! This hurts so much!" She yelled.

I kneeled down next to the bed she was on and grabbed her hand. She squeezed mine so hard it hurt, but I bet she was hurting a lot more so I didn't care.

Time skip

With one final scream from Marci, the baby was out. The doctor held it up, facing her.

"It's a boy!"

     "What are you gonna name him?" I asked.

     "I was thinking Marshall... Marshall James... What do you think?"

     "I think it sounds perfect! Marshall James Vamp. I like it. Catchy too!"

     "Heh... AGH!!!!" Marci screamed again.

     The doctors and nurses turned around, what was wrong? They al rushed to the end of the bed. 

     "There's another one!"

     "Why the hell are you just explaining this now!?!?" I yelled. They were the freaking doctors!! Why didn't they know?!

Time skip     Marci's POV

     The pain stopped and the doctor held up yet another tiny body.., I didn't even realize I had twins...

     "Um Doctor...?" The nurse said.

     "Yes?"

     "Will you come here for a second?"

     I looked at Z horrified. What was wrong? Somebody say something!

     The doctor turned to me as the nurse put my baby on a bed and left the room. "Ms. Vamp... I'm very sorry to say that your baby girl... Was a miscarriage... I'm terrible sorry..."

     My heart dropped.

     My second child is... Dead?

     I felt tears form in my eyes and spill down my face...

     "If I had a baby girl I would've named her Tori Nova... Please tell me Marshall is alright! I can't loose him too! Please... Can I see them...? I didn't even get to see my sweet Tori..." The tears soaked the dress thing I had on and Z's sweatshirt.

     "You can see Tori now, the nurses are cleaning Marshall up for you."

     "Thank you so much..,"

     Z helped me as we followed a nurse into a bright room... There was a baby in a cradle thing... Unmoving...

     I sobbed loudly as I looked at my dead child. I always wanted a little girl... But now...

     Z hugged me from behind and kissed my cheek. I don't even know what to do anymore.

     I walked up to her... She just looked like she was asleep... Yeah that was it... My sleepy little Tori...

     I turned to Z. "I can't take this anymore, bring me back to my room."

     "Ok... It will all be ok we still have Marshall..."

     We went back to the room and I lay  down. So this was the darkness Mum was talking about... Something even she couldn't see...

     A nurse came in holding Marshall and handed him to me.

     I cradled him in my arms, smiling and crying at the same time. "Hi sweet baby... Now I know the true meaning of life..."
