*River* 

I woke up with every memory of what happened between Bianca and I last night. I mentally slapped myself again and again for having sex with her. Giving myself up to her when I knew it was wrong. It stung just knowing I made love to anyone but Ramona. 

"Bianca?" I called out once I realized she wasn't in the bed with me anymore.

I looked around to notice that her clothes were missing and I instantly had the gut feeling that she ran off. She ran off because we had sex and I knew she didn't have any plans to come back. I grabbed my phone, finding a long typed message from an unknown number. Saying it was Bianca and she had no plans to return. That I belonged with Ramona and she wasn't going to be around to ruin it for me. 

A little too late for that.

I took a quick shower, desperate to get the feeling of Bianca off of me. I loved her but not the way I loved Ramona. I needed her scent and any feeling of her off of my body if I was going to try and work things out with Ramona. Should I tell her? I doubted it. But I knew she'd find out some day. 

I had every intention on returning home to beg Ramona for my forgivness and do whatever she wanted me to do and make it up to her and my daughter. I wondered what she told my kids and what they thought of me. They'd probably never forgive me and I knew she'd never feel the same about me after finding this out. 

Bzzzz Bzzzz

"Hello?" I asked lazily.

I rushed to the third floor of the hospital where I was told they'd be waiting for me. I wasn't ready for this to happen. Any of this. I scanned the hallways to find out where my family was and what was happening with my lovely daughter. Ramona called me alarmed and told me Isis forced her to call me.

"River!" Ramona called out while leaning against the wall.

I rushed over to my wifes side and pulled her forcefully into a hug. She tried to pull away but once she broke down, the tears falling down her face she gave up and let me hold her. I wanted nothing more than to just hold her close and never let her go again.

"She started b-bleeding." She cried against my chest, soaking my shirt up with her tears, "It was just a kiss right?" 

"She kissed me." I wasn't lying. Bianca was the one who kissed me. 

She nodded her head in agreement that she believed me which I hated myself for. I should tell her the truth, tell her that Bianca and I had sex last night. I should tell her Bianca had her way with me and my member but I couldn't bring myself to tell her. She needed me. My family all needed me right now. 

"Is she okay?" I asked, refering back to Isis. 

"She is. But we don't know about the baby yet. The doctor said it could be anything but she was in pain River." She cried even harder while grabbing the back of my shirt and burring her face into my chest.

"Baby it'll be okay." I rubbed her back in circles as she stayed crying for what seemed like days. 

"She will never be the same if she looses this baby." She cried even harder and I didn't even know how that was possible.

*Isis* 

I opened up my eyes to see my dad sitting in a chair next to the hospital bed with my mother on his lap. They were both sleeping and I felt a little thankful that my dad was here even after what he did to my mother. She clearly forgave him so I could too and so would the rest of us. 

I ran my hands over my baby bump which was still there but my baby wasn't moving. She was as solid as a rock but maybe she was sleeping too. It was a peaceful time so maybe she was finally asleep after all of the tests that were being ran this morning when I came in for bleeding. Brantley was at my right, holding my hand and sleeping with his head on the bed next to my legs. 

"Brantley?" I whispered while pushing him a little, causing him to jump before looking up at me to see I was awake. 

"Hey, how you feelin'?" He asked while crawling into the hostpial bed with me and holding me against his body firmly. 

"Is she okay?" I asked, feeling the tears form in my eyes. 

"She's going to be fine." He reassured me while holding me tighter against his body and smiling while wiping tears away from my face.

"Oh my god." I cried tears of joy while clutching onto him and leaning against his body completely as he hugged onto me.

Brantley helped me into bed although I really didn't need the help. He shut my door and crawled into bed next to me, laying behind me and falling asleep with one hand on my belly. He always fell asleep like that ever since we found out I was pregnant. Brantley was perfect. He was so supportive and caring. He was amazing. 

"I can't." I heard my dad mumble to my mom.

"River, she remind you of someone you know?" She asked but there was no answer, "You." 

"She's more like you. You talk to her, this isn't my area of expertice." He growled desperatly. 

"She told me the same thing." My mother laughed a little, "Like Daddy Like Daughter." 

My bedroom door opened and I saw my dad walk in after a long pause of him trying to figure out what to say to me. He noticed Brantley asleep behind me and growled a little bit before moving my hair away from my face. I needed my daddy. I needed him to hug me. And tell me it will all be okay. 

"Let's go get some ice cream, Icey. I think we need to talk." He whispered.
