The next morning I woke with sharp pain in my back. I told Jessie and she took me to the emergency room right away. When I arrived, they rushed me to a room to check if I was in labor.
"Ma'm how far along are you?"
"21 weeks" I cried. I cried from the pain. I cried from the fact that my baby could be born and dead in one day. I cried because I was terrified.
"Okay, well you're not in labor or dilated at all, which is good"
"Then what's going on?" Jessie asked.
"Taylor has anyone hit you within the last few days?"
"Who would hit a pregnant woman?" Jessie asked.
"Yes, I was. I was pushed off a stool and punched a few times in the face yesterday. "
"By who? Why didn't I know?"
"Jessie I'll tell you later"
"Okay well Taylor I believe your ribs are just bruised and since the baby is constantly kicking it hits them and sends pain. So I'm gonna give you some medicine but I can't give you much due to the baby" the nurse said and she prescribed me some medicine.
"So he's okay?"
"He is okay" she nodded. I sighed in relief. Jessie drove back home while I told her the story of last night. She was furious and threatened to kick Jake out but I had to convince her that technically her baby is also her grand baby as well as mine is. She understood where I was coming from and threw that away.
For the rest of the day I stayed in my bed watching Grey's Anatomy and sleeping. Kasey came over for about 3 hours and hung out with me to make sure me and the baby were okay.
"Taylor?"
"Yes best friend" I laughed.
"I need to ask you a serious question"
"Okay what's up?"
"Is there something going on with you and Nick?"
"No! Kasey That's your brother!"
"But he also has been there for you through all of this"
"Kasey if something was going on with me and your brother I would ask you before anything progressed."
"Well if it ever comes to it I want you to know that I wouldn't mind as long as I got my time with time with you too"
"Well even though nothing will happen between us that's a deal"
"Are you excited for tomorrow?"
"Yes!"
"I can't wait"
"Oh but you have too" I laughed. Soon after she left and I ate dinner and went to bed.
This was a really short but I wanted the baby shower a different chapter so that will be up soon!
