*Toby's POV*

The ambulance pulls into the garage of the hospital. Spencer is still screaming and crying in pain. I'm still crying. I'm scared. I'm scared for her, and for the triplets.

The paramedics open the back of the van and pull the stretcher out. I follow close behind. They pick up speed and run through the hallways. Finally, they stop at two double doors, The Emergency Room.

"Sir, I'm going to have to have you stay out here." A bald headed man instructs. I freeze in place, panting heavily. Slowly, I make my way over to a hard metal bench that sits in the corner.

"God please let her be okay!" I repeat. "Please spare her life! I can't live without her! She's so young! She has so much to live for!" By this time I am crying so hard that no words come out. A lump forms in my throat and I feel as though I'm about to vomit. I stare at the clock on the wall. It's a little past three in the morning. I debate calling the girls, because Spencer would want to see them. I stare at the wall trying to decide whether or not I should call them at this unearthly hour.

Finally, I pick up my phone and dial Hanna first. The phone rings once, then three times, and then five times still with no answer.

"Hey, Its Hanna! Sorry I can't get to the phone right now. Please hang up, and text me. I don't have time to check my voicemails. *BEEP*"

I frown, and dial her number one more time.

"Hey, It's Hanna! Sorry I can't get to the phone right now. Please hang up and text me. I don't have time to check my voicemails. *BEEP*"

I decide just to send her a text instead.

S.O.S -Toby

I hit send and then dial Aria.

"Hey, It's Aria! I'm so sorry I missed your call. Leave me a message and I wilk get back to you as soon as possible. *BEEP*"

I frown, and decide to send her a text too.

S.O.S Call me!!! -Toby

I take a slow deep breath and exhale loudly before dialing Emily. Tears still roll down my cheeks as the phone rings. This is my last chance.

"Hello?" A groggy voice chimes through the receiver. I have never been so relieved to hear her voice.

"Emily, It's me Toby." I say wiping the tears from my eyes.

"Oh my god Toby what's wrong?" Emily asks a bit more alert. She must have sensed the panic in my voice.

"It-It's Spencer." I sob. "She-she's in the hospital and I think she's having a miscarriage." I can barley hold the phone in my hand with it shaking so much. My whole body is trembling with sobs.

"Oh my god." Emily says. I hear rustling from the other end, and then footsteps thundering down the stairs.

"Toby, I'll be right over." Emily says, her voice shaking. "Have you called the others?"

"Yes, but no one answered." I say.

"Okay, I'll keep trying to get a hold of them. I'm leaving now, and I'll meet you at the hospital." Emily says. I hear a door click, and then she hangs up. I drop my head in my knees. I'm scared for Spencer! I'm scared for me! I'm scared for our babies!

Little Bella, I've been waiting so long to meet her. I want to dress her up, and spoil her. I want to laugh and play with her. I want to hold her and shower her with my love. I want her to grow up and be her daddy's little girl...

My little boys, I have waited so long to meet them too! Spencer and I have had the hardest time picking out their first names. The middle names are already chosen. Peter and Daniel, named after Spencer's dad Peter Hastings, and my father Daniel Cavanaugh. I want my little boys to play baseball with me in the yard. I want them to wrestle with me on the living room floor. I want to hold them. One in each arm, and show them how much I love them. I want to protect them and teach them how to protect their little sister or further little siblings...

When I think about my life with my four babies, Spencer included, I can't help but beam from ear to ear. We are going to have the picture perfect life! I'm going to have an amazing wife someday. I'm going to have an amazing little daughter who will be the light of my life, and I'm going to have two little boys who I can only imagine will drive me and Spencer crazy, but we will love them unconditionally.

My thoughts are interrupted by Emily walking in, and rushing over to me. She doesn't hesitate to wrap her arms around me and hug me tight.

"Toby, it's going to be okay." she says, wiping a stray tear from her eye. I lean my head on her shoulder and cry into her.

"I-I'm scared, Em. What if she or the babies don't make it? I can't imagine losing them. They mean everything to me!" I sob hysterically into her shoulder.

"Toby, It's going to be okay. Whatever happens, I know it will be okay!" Emily says comforting me. I look into her eyes. She seems so sure, so confident in her response.

Her thick dark hair falls down her shoulders, and covers her back. Her eyes are a light hazel color with specks of gold. She is beautiful! She's so comforting. She is compassionate and caring. When I look into her eyes, I see the past in one big blur. I see the girl that at the time, was the only friend I had. I see the girl who once loved me when no one else could. Emily never gave up on me. Not even once. Not even when everyone else looked down on me. No one seemed to care about me, except for her. When I look into her eyes, I see the girl who wasn't afraid to share her feelings, despite what others thought. I see the girl that I once found myself falling deeply in love with...

"Toby, are you okay?" Emily asks, shaking me from my trance. She must think I'm psychotic for staring at her for so long. No, she doesn't think I'm crazy. She never has. She's always been there for me, always!

Emily places a hand on my knee, and looks into my eyes. I stare back at her, into her eyes, and smile.

"Emily, a long time ago I started to fall in love with you." I confess. Emily stays silent for a while, unsure of how to respond. But then, smiles sadly.

"Me too." she admits. Then, before I can even register what's happening, I lean forward and kiss her. I kiss her long and passionately. She's surprised at first, but then kisses me back in the same way. Once we pull apart, I feel ashamed.

"I-I'm sorry."I say looking down at the floor. "I don't know what got into me." Emily looks away.

"Me either." she starts. Just then a nurse walks out of the emergency room, interrupting our awkward moment.

"Toby Cavanaugh?" her voice echoes. Emily and I turn to look at her in unison.

"We have Spencer Hasting's results."
