Beth's POV

Flashback

8 years ago

" you don't have to watch me like I'm a hurt puppy. I'm just pregnant " my best friend Jill laughed 

" yes I know but I want to be here for you during this" I stated rubbing her back

" your the best girl"Jill smiled

" I just feel bad you have to go through this alone " I frowned

" I'm not alone I have the worlds best sister" Jill said hugging me. " oh god Beth my water just broke" Jill exclaimed

" ok let's go " I stated helping her up and out to the car

10 minutes later at the hospital

" I need a doctor my best friends water just broke " I exclaimed running into the hospital

" I need a wheelchair now" a nurse said as some other nurse got us a wheelchair

" thanks " Jill managed to get out through shaky breaths

"Beth the doctors say I'm not going to make it"Jill breathed out handing me her baby that she had yet to name

" Jill you don't.." I started holding her baby rocking it back and forth

" Beth I don't have much time" Jill started.
" I want you and your husband to take care of my daughter" Jill stated

" Jill that's extremely sweet you want me as her legal guardian but that takes a lot of paperwork" I stated

" I know that" Jill started frowning
"That's why I made a will when I found out I was pregnant" Jill stated

" but how did you know..." I questioned confused as to how and why she already had the paper work done way before hand and I'm just know finding out

" they told me there was a 60% chance I wouldn't make it during childbirth" Jill breathe out. "I wanted to have kids so I did this knowing the risk and put you and your husband down as legal guardianship if anything happened" Jill stated

" Jill" I breathed as tears were flooding down

" everything is already done you guys just have to sign the papers and they are in my bag I brought with my clothes" Jill stated

" ok" I breathed out not knowing what else to say

" I just have one request" Jill stated

" anything" I stated making Jill smile

" please name her Isabella or Bella. It was my mother's name" Jill stated

" of course" I smiled as a nurse took the baby and Jill faded away

End of flashback

" happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Bella.. happy birthday to you" everyone chimes in singing

" happy 8th birthday honey" I smiled kissing the top of my daughters head.

It still felt weird calling her my daughter even though she legally was and it's what Jill wanted.

Jill would be so proud of her and would love how much she looks like her.

"Thanks momma" Isabella smiled

" anything for you Bell" I smiled hugging her

8 years ago I lost my best friend and thought I would never find someone as kind and beautiful as she was.

I never realized Jill would live on through her daughter.

The greatest thing that has ever happened to me was being a mother to my best friends daughter
