5 Months Later.....

Jon's POV:

I woke up feeling refreshed and energized. I looked to my side and saw Maddison sleeping peacefully next to me. You could see the small bump starting to form on her stomach. I only thought it made her more beautiful. I tried to convince Maddison to go to my house so she wouldn't have to stress about being on the road every week but can I just say how stubborn she is. She just wouldn't budge.

I honestly wasn't complaining. If it meant seeing her pretty face every morning, I'd keep her next to me all the time. A couple of days ago, we went to the doctors to find out the baby's gender. We found out that we were having a little girl after all. I literally rubbed it in Maddison's face, in a nice way of course. She was happy anyways. 

After we found out the gender, the doctor wanted to speak to Maddison privately. When she went into the doctor's office, she was smiling widely but ever since then, she's been so tense. I tried to ask her a couple of times what was wrong but she just said it was to do with the pregnancy. 

I just couldn't wait. Only four months left. Four months until I can hold our little girl in my arms. I was definitely going to spoil her. We decided to call her Piper Melanie Good since it was the name we chose for if we had a girl.

I sighed happily. Everything was going so well for us and nothing could ruin it.

Maddison's POV:

I was sleeping but awoke when I felt Jon rubbing my small baby bump. I kept my eyes closed. I felt him kiss my stomach. Jon was so in love with this child. I couldn't take her away from him. No matter what the doctor said, I was keeping Piper.

Flashback:

A Couple of Days Ago.....

The Doctor's Office

"So I hope you're happy with the gender." the doctor said.

"Of course. I know Jon is." I smiled.

"I'm afraid there is some bad news though." she said, making my smile fade away. 

"What is it??" I asked, a little worried.

"The thing is, we know that you've been sexually assaulted before, right??"

"Yeah."

"Well, it's made your body incredibly weak, so weak that you might not have the strength to deliver your child."

"W-what are you trying to say??" I asked, trying to hold back my tears.

"Well, it's a 50-50 chance. If you want, you could choose to abort your child before it's too late and save your life or you could take your chances and deliver your child but you might not make it."

I chocked my tears back. If I deliver this child, I could die. I will die.

I had to keep Piper. I knew how much Jon was in love with her. Piper is his whole world and she isn't even born yet. It would crush him if I were to get rid of her. I couldn't do that. Everyone was so excited. Jon was, Colby was, Joe was. Everyone. I couldn't be selfish and get rid of someone's life to save mine. Especially if that life is my own daughter's. It just wasn't right. 

"You know Piper, I'm gonna be the best dad ever. I'm gonna feed you and bathe you and change your clothes. I might even change your diaper but I might just sneak out and let your mom do that for you instead." Jon chuckled.

I wanted to cry but didn't. What I found really upsetting is that I might not be able to see my daughter's face. I won't able to give her the motherly love she deserves. 

"I'm never gonna leave your side Piper. I'm gonna give you anything and everything you ask for but I won't let you turn into a spoiled brat, I'll tell you that now." Jon said, making me smile. 

I knew that when I leave, Piper will be able to look after Jon for me. I just wanted to give Jon his happiness. Even if it means losing my life.
