Your Body With Somebody Else. BWS

White Wedding

16 weeks pregnant

My aunt Amanda and my new uncle Pete were saying their vows.
"You may now kiss the bride."
They kiss and we all cheer. They walk up to us and everyone hugs and congratulates them.

The happy couple are having their first dance as husband and wife. They gracefully glide across the floor. People join them when their song finishes. Brad takes my hand, pulls me up to the floor and puts his hands on my waist. I put my arms around his neck and rest my head on his shoulder. Members of my family come up to us and ask about our relationship and the baby. We are together but Brad won't be around much. We don't really know what else to tell them. We carry on dancing for a while.

I suddenly get a sharp pain in my abdomen and I gasp.
"Lissy, you ok?" Brad asks. I breathe out sharply as another flash of pain seared through me. I doubled over in pain as Brad holds me up. My mum runs over.
"Liss, sit down." They lead me over to a table and I sit down. People are crowding round me now. My aunt comes over and asks if I'm ok.
"We should get you to the hospital." Brad says worryingly.
"Ok" I say, my hand on my stomach where the pain was. I stand up. The pain worsens and I look down. There's blood trickling down my leg.
"Oh god!" I say in tears. Brad puts his arm around me to support me and my parents are walking next to us. She puts her coat on the back seat of my car and we get in. My mum and dad are in the front and mum drives to the hospital.

Brad's POV

Alysia's mum stays calm for her benefit.
When we get to the hospital she marches right up to the front desk and says, "My daughter, she's pregnant and bleeding!" A few doctors rush out and take Alysia from me and I follow them.
"Are you the baby's father?" One asks me.
"Yes." I say as they put Alysia on a stretcher bed and wheel her away. I run after them.
"How many weeks is she?" A mask asks me.
"14." I reply.
"We need to do an ultrasound now." A doctor shouts to someone else.

Star's POV

James, Dina, Connor and I jump out of Dina's car and run into the hospital. We see Alysia's parents in the waiting room. Her mum jumps up and I go to hug her.
"How long have they been in there?" I ask.
"I don't know. A while." She says sitting down again. "We haven't heard anything." At that moment Brad walks out of the ward. He walks over to us. It's clear he's been crying.
"What's happened?" We ask. He shakes his head and wanders over to a chair and sits down. "Lissy's ok physically but..."
"What Brad?!"
"She lost the baby." He says putting his head in his hands.

Daphne's (Alysia's mum) POV

"She lost the baby."
I feel the tears streaming down my face. No one knows what to say.
"I need to see her." I say. I go up to the front desk and demand to see my daughter. Pete comes up and pulls me away.
"No!" I shout. "I need to see her." A doctor walks past and I ask to see Alysia. He takes me and Brad to her room.
We walk in and she's cleaning blood from the floor.
"Alysia stop!" I say running to her.
"Don't worry." She croaks, sniffing. "It's my blood."
"You need to sleep." Says Brad as he helps her back into bed. She gets out again the other side and runs over to me and hugs me tightly. I hear her crying. I tell her everything's going to be ok and hold her tightly. I put her back to bed and Brad sits on the edge and wraps his arms around her as she hugs him close, not letting go.
