Worst Night Mare : I got to go!

I was stood back stage getting ready to go out on stage, in the next half an hour when I got the call. I pulled my phone out of my bag which was resting on the floor next to me. And I was alarmed to see it was jack, Izzy’s brother who was ringing me. I answered straight away fearing the worst, but I was surprised to find it was not Jack’s voice almost shouting through the phone but Bradley or James’s I could never tell the difference between the two, but forgetting this I zoned in on that actually words whoever was saying to me.

I couldn’t make out all words because he was talking too fast for me to understand but I caught enough to make sense of it. “Izzy” “labour” “Hospital” “Now” then the phone cut as if they had lost single. I sat there for a few moments longer allowing myself time to processes what had just happened. Then it hit me like a ton of bricks, my baby was being born at this moment, and I wasn’t there to hold my beautiful girlfriend’s hand. I was moving so quickly that my eyes took a second to adjust to the speed. I was auto-pilot not sure where I was going but I knew I had to find someone with a car.

Then I ran into my brother, Chad bounced back as I hit him. But I had no time to apologise I had to get to the hospital now so I could be there when my baby was born. I grabbed both his shoulders to steady him slight, and he must have seen my face because he raised an eyebrow. “Dude. What’s wrong?”  I didn’t know how I looked but Chad seemed concerned so I am sure I didn’t look great. “Izzy” I managed to get out, for some reason it had become incredible hard to talk. I could feel fear spreading over me, because I knew if the baby was born without me there Izzy would never forgive me and I couldn’t live with that. “Ok what about her?” he said like he was ready to jump into action at my answer “The baby is coming” I said my voice coming back to me, I watched as his eyes widened “Now?” he asked as if making sure he understood a hundred present, “Yes Now” I said with a louder voice then I had planned.

He nodded “Right let me get Zander, and he can drive us both there. Go tell Miss. Flicker you have to go” I nodded turning as if I hoped Miss. Flicker the head teacher of the show would be stood around me. But she wasn’t, so I went on a search for her. I found her near Ellie’s dressing room. “Miss Flicker” I almost shouted in my edginess to talk to her. She span round looking alarmed until she realised it was me. “Yes Daniel?” she said with a kind smile “I got to go” a frown to over her face instead. “Why?” she said looking me over, I guess for an injury or something. “My baby is being born” I saw her nod then she seemed to think for a second then she shook her head “You can’t leave Dan, I am sorry.” I felt my eyes widen and my mouth drop open was she joking what did she mean I couldn’t leave this was my son or daughter being born we are talking about. “You’re joking right?” I said trying to keep the annoyance which was pumping in me out of my voice.

“No Dan I am not, you have no understudy you have to preform” then she walked off as if we had been discussing why I didn’t have my drama homework. I stood there for what felt like years looking were her retreating back had turned the corner, but it could have only been a few minutes. My phone vibrated in my pocket and I grabbed it putting it to my ear again, not bothering to check who it was already knowing. But I was wrong it wasn’t Jack or even Bradley or James the voice on the other end of the phone was my hopefully one day father in law. “Where are you?” he didn’t even say hello, I could tell he was on edge, he didn’t sound at all happy to the fact he probable arrived at the hospital to find his daughter’s boyfriend the father of the baby wasn’t there. “I am coming sir right now?” I said glancing around like Miss. Flicker would appear next to me saying she was only joking. “Fine see you soon” he sounded a little less angry as he said a sort of bye before hanging up.
