Chapter 20

Mamrie's P.O.V

Grace and I both decide that we will go to the shopping centre together, as we both needed to get a lot of things, such as food shopping and we needed more clothes. Hartley is growing out of her clothes and a so is Eve. Grace just wants to treat herself with some clothes, after everything that has happened with Hartley and Seb.

"Hey Smellbig, you wanna go shopping later?" I ask, putting my earrings in.

"Yeah, sure. Just gonna take Hartley to school then I will be ready." Grace shouts, to me getting her bag and grabbing the keys off the table.

"Ok cool. See you in a bit. Hey is Hartley ok. She seems out of it?" I ask, but the door slams, Grace had obviously not heard me and left to take Hart to school.

I finish putting my face on and start making my way downstairs to stuff my mouth with food for energy. I close the door and head downstairs.

I grab some bread and place it into the toaster. As I wait for the bread to toast I clean up, Hannah's, Grace's and Hartley's plates from the morning. The toaster pops up and I smother the brown bread with butter. I sit down at the table and scoff down the food like there was no tomorrow.

After few minutes later, I was at the sink, washing up the rest of the plates. I dry the bubbles and water of the plates and place them carefully into the cupboard, staking them on top of each other.

I hear the door opening, I peer from behind the kitchen door to see Grace struggling with Eve and a few bits of shopping.

I quickly rush and take the bags of her. Grace readjusts Eve on her hip and takes the keys out the door, then closes the door.

"I thought we were going shopping in a little while." I say, looking through the bags, before placing them on the table. In the bag there was paracetamol, Calpol, tampons and toilet roll. Just the necessary things till we go shopping soon.

"Paracetamol?" I ask, taking them out of the bag and holding them up.

"I am feeling so sick, headache and light-headed." Grace says, putting Eve down for a nap, in the living room travel cot.

"Come here." I say, gesturing her with my hand to come over. She walks over slowly and stands face to face. I place the back of my hand to her forehead, to feel for a temperature.

"Holy SHIT Helbig, your burning up. Are you sure your going to be ok for shopping in like ten minutes?" I exclaim, taking my hand away.

"Yeah I'm fine." Grace says, as her face get paler and paler.

"I can take Hannah with me." I explain, not noticing Hannah coming down the stairs.

"Take me where?" Hannah says getting herself a glass of water.

"You can come shopping with me, Grace is burning up." I explain, placing Hannah's hand on her forehead.

"Smellbig, are you sure your going to be fine with going. I can go instead like Mamrie said."

"I'm fine. Really I am. I'm fine." Grace says, getting her bag off the table and walking in to get Eve.

"You keep an eye on her. She does anything out of the unusual, you bring her straight back home." Hannah orders, making her way back upstairs to work on her book.

"You coming or not?" Grace yells to me, while placing Everley into the car.

I grab my bag and race off to the car. I see Everley strapped in and Grace in the driver's seat picking out music.

"You sure your ok to drive?" I question concerned, sitting into the passengers seat.

"Yes, now hurry up before all the parking spaces are gone." Grace says starting the car.

We drive a few miles in complete silence, except Eve gurgling.

"Is it ok for me to take my seat belt of just to take off my hoodie?" I ask knowing Grace has a thing for safety.

"Sure!" Grace says her words becoming slow.

"Thanks." I say, taking my seat belt off, then pulling my hoodie off

"You..yo..you know..."

"Grace?" I exclaim, as Grace stops speaking all together.

Grace's eye roll back to reveal only the whites of her eyes. Her hands slide of the wheel. Her whole body starts to shake vigorously. Her feet comes off the pedals, I knew something was wrong. The car spins a whole three-sixty turn, the wheels sliding across the road. The car collides with another car, glass going everywhere and bits of the car flying around us.

I bash my head against the windscreen. The last thing I hear is the faint cries of Everley before I slip unconscious.
