I woke up to a bright light and a ringing sound. "Leda- Miss Shaforostov." A doctor snapped his fingers in front of my face as my vision came into focus. I was in a hospital.

"What- what happened?" I looked around. The room was empty, save the doctor and I.

"I'm doctor Blister."

"That sounds like a horror movie name." I looked at him curiously.

"I get that a lot." I looked down. Nothing seemed to be amiss.

"What happened? Is the baby okay what's going on?"

"Your baby is fine, Miss. You fainted at a friends house a couple of hours ago. You don't remember?" The last thing I could remember was going over to Ben's house and sitting down with Ciara and Danny. The rest was a blur.

"No I- where are they? What happened?"

"They're out in the waiting room. They're all fine. The reason you fainted is because your blood pressure is incredibly high, due to stress. I'm going to prescribe you some medicine to try and bring that down for us. Alright? Other than that, try and stay calm, avoid stressful situations." I actually laughed out loud.

"That isn't really possible right now, doc."

"Why is that?"

"I-"

"I'm here what the fuck happened." Denis burst into the room. I looked at the doctor and he nodded.

"I see. I'll leave you to it then." He walked out and Denis came to the side of my bed.

"Leda what happened? I got a call that you were in the hospital and I came right over."

"I didn't think you cared." I looked at the ground.

"Leda, of course I care. Just because we're on a break doesn't mean I don't love you. I will always care."

"I fainted from stress, and heat." I looked at him.

"Wh- are you okay? Is the baby okay?"

"The baby is fine," I snapped. "I, obviously, am not. Why did you just disappear, Denis?" I looked up at him. "How could you do that."

"I'm sorry, Leda. I'm so sorry. I didn't know what to do and I've been so angry and upset, and I just couldn't deal-"

"You couldn't deal, that's cool. I gathered that." I said sharply.

"Please, Leda I'm so sorry just listen to-"

"Go. Leave, Denis." He stood tall, not expecting me to say that.

"Leds I-"

"Leave!" I shouted. He looked just as guilty as I wanted him to feel. He walked out of the room. After writing me a prescription for blood pressure pills, he unhooked me from everything and let me leave. I got dressed and everything in the bathroom before walking out into the waiting room. Only Ben, Ciara, girl Cameron, and Danny were there. Denis had left.

"Leda," Danny stood quickly. "What's wrong what happened?"

"Apparently I fainted due to stress." I explained to everyone. "High blood pressure. The baby is fine." A collective sigh of relief filled the room.

"Thank god you're okay. Chill the fuck out yo." Cameron said.

"What, like you're always so calm." I

"Oh god," Ciara put her hand over her heart.

"I didn't think my pie was that bad," Everyone laughed a little.

"Also sorry about your broken plate." I blushed slightly.

"Don't even worry about it, Leda. And what happened with Denis. I saw him run in, and then storm off. I don't even think he saw us."

"He apologised for fucking off and I told him to leave. I really don't know what's going on."

"Right." Ben said. "We didn't call everyone else because we didn't want to worry them, but I think you should call everone and let them know what happened if want. Just to keep everyone updated, I guess."

"Do you think you should go home, or do you want to come back to my house? You can stay with me for a while, if you want. Just to be sure that everything is really alright?" Cameron offered. I thought.

"I think that sounds good."

"You could stay at mine or something too." Danny suggested.

"And our house is always open." Ben offered and Ciara nodded in agreement.

"Woah, mom mode. My house is a drama free zone, she's sleeping at mine." Cameron said sternly. "Sorry guys."

"I guess it's sorted then." I laughed slightly. Ben and Ciara left and Danny went home, and I got in the car with Cameron. She drove me home to pick up some clothes and stuff, we filled my prescription, and then we went back to her house. She lived in a little town house in a shady suburban area, but it was nice. She helped me out of the car and carried my bag inside for me. Cameron and CC's town house was two stories high, and rather thin, so they needed the height. At the front door was a set of stairs going up, and the living room and kitchen, and a door going outside at the back. Underneath that staircase, was more stairs leading down into the basement. There was two more bedrooms down there, and another big general sitting area, and a bathroom. Upstairs was the master bedroom, and another bathroom. "I haven't been here in so long, it's weird." I only thought of it then. I hadn't been around to Cameron's in months. She always just came over, or we met up somewhere. She didn't really like having people over, because her house was her sancuary in a way, but I, and Denis on a few rare occasions, was an execption.

"I know. It's so messy right now. I haven't even had time to clean anything oh my god."

"Here, I'll bring my bag down-"

"No." Cam said quickly. "CC isn't here. You're sleeping in my bed with me." I laughed slightly as we both walked upstairs. I was exhausted. She put my bag down and started unpacking things into her dresser, as if I was going to be living here forever.

"You're a good friend, you know that." I smiled as I sat down on her kingsize bed.

"Yeah, I know." She smiled proudly. "I know you would do the same for me." By the time night came we already had a movie playing, ordered in Chinese food, and were painting each other toe nails.

"Look at us." I laughed slightly. "We've become a sitcom. When we were younger we were so chill and never wanted kids, and said we were just going to marry each other so we wouldn't have to deal with guys, and move to LA. We had all these big hopes and dreams. Now I'm married and pregnant, you want kids, you live in a townhouse. I need pills for my stress. And we live in fucking Texas."

"Yeah." Cameron laughed. "But isn't this so much better?"

A/N: lol sigh of relief Leda is fine.

Even tho you all wanted a miscarriage???

Bet that was a fun cliff hanger. Also I realized I've made them all act like silly old white people, so smh what am I doing here. But I guess they're going up now (Most of them, cos Denis doesn't listen).

Also I've made plenty of technical errors in this story, so here's to hoping you haven't/won't notice.
