valentines day was only a day away now.my stomach was huge and my waddleing little sore feet were tired as i sat there doing dishes, my small little room at my moms house was gone and now we were at an apartment me and jackson had rented.it wasnt the biggest but it was big enough for us.jackson came out dressed for work as he grabed my hand and pulled me away from the dishes as he stood there and hugged me
"'don't work yourself please...."he said softly
i nodded and smiled as he got on his knees and kissed my stomach before getting up and kissing me goodbye before he walked out the door.i sat down on the couch and put my hand on my stomach.
"only a few more days..i promise...then i get to meet u...love you...cause i know you're amazing.."
i felt my stomach move to the point that it hurt.i stood up and held my stomach
before reaching for the phone.jackson didn't pick up so i called my mum.
"please come...hurry...jacksons at work i need a ride NOW" i said before hanging up.
within about ten minutes she was with me helping me in the car, we drove for what seemed like days to the hospital and i was quickly taken into another room and laid on a bed while i squirmed and struggled in pain before they gave me anesthetics to calm me down.i laid there breathing hard before slowly calming down while they took a bunch of test.
it was a long night of nothing but test for me till i feel asleep,i laid in the bed as thoughts filled my mind thru my sleep till i woke up, sweating and breathing hard.i looked around to see jackson sitting upright in a chair but was fast asleep,he looked so uncomfortable as he sat there in the silence,all i could hear was breathing and the clock ticking as i looked at it reading 3:45 am.it was valintines day and look were we are.i felt terrible,i took hold of his hand and just laid there holding onto it waiting for him to wake up. all of a sudden i felt it,not more pain like the day before,i felt my water broke,jackson was to close for me to shake so i pulled on his arm abruptly waking him up as he looked around then at me as i mouthed the words "get.the.doctor" his eyes widened before he jumped up and ran out the door coming back with a doctor and a nurse as him and my parent weren't far behind as the nurse and the doctor got to work my mom paced and my dad stood silently as jackson held my hand and kept repeating stuff to calm me down as i felt the worst pain of my life shoot thru my entire body.
five hours,the worst time of my life.every minute was painful and i said things i never say i screamed i yelled and i swore.but in the end all i could hear was the sound of breathing then the cry of an infant.all the pain was gone as morphine was shot into my arm.i teared up hearing my new baby cry.they cut the cord and cleaned up the baby they carried over the baby in a little pink blanket,
"our little girl..."i heard jackson say
i looked at the small little girl wiggling in my arm.a few black hair covered her head as she opened her small eyes and looked at me as i wiped my eyes and stared down at her
"do you have a name?" my mum's voice snapped me back to reality
i look at jackson and he nods at me.i clear my throat as i can barely say the name
"dawn" i say as my body shakes,
my mum and dad smile as i hand down to jackson who rocks her carefully to sleep as the nurse hands me water and a cold cloth which feels amazing against my hot skin,my mum is the next to hold dawn and i can tell she's proud.the doctor hands me the birth certificate to sign then has jackson sign it too as he sits next to me putting his arm around my shoulder.suddenly the small hospital room seems to packed,to hot,and everyone seems so close.
jackson looks at me and he can tell that i'm slowly becoming uncomfortable and crowded so he asked if he could be alone with me and dawn.everyone agrees and my mum hands drawn back to jackson before the room empties of others leaving us three alone and finally i feel like i can move and i try my hardest to sit up
"you need to rest sky...please love...."he smiles
i nod and he steps closer to me kissing me gently before i drift off to sleep with him still holding dawn.
i woke up to a room of silence as i looked at my little girl in the arms of the man i loved as a rose and card were on her nightstand as she sat up and smiled before grabbing it as she read it softly and smiled before hearing knocks at the door waking jackson as the doctor walks in
"you have visitors who wish to talk to you alone"
jackson lays down in my arms before kissing my cheek and leaving with the doctor.a few min past as i hold onto dawn.then a few girls around my age step in, there girls from my old school and in the back i can see my old best friend.two of the girls smirk as they look at me while my old friend stands behind them silently,as i looked at them confused
