The Love Lost Within

Poor Baby

*Four months later*

Faith POV

I was now nine months pregnant, these babies would be coming any day now. I woke up and went downstairs, it was a Saturday and that meant Jacob was cooking for me. I finally got downstairs and there he was, shirtless with jogging pants on, such an amazing view. "Good morning my queen, my prince, and my princess" he said "Good morning sweety" I said smiling "Did you just pee on yourself?" He asked nervously "No, my water just broke" I said "OHHH SHIT, WE GOTTA GET YOU TO THE HOSPITAL" he said panicking "Call your parents, Tyler, Tony, Diamond, Chris, Kenneth, Monique, Your Uncle, Your aunt, Everybody" I said breathing heavily.

Jacob POV

Once I got Faith in the car I picked up my phone and called my parents "Hello, mom my water broke" I said "Your water, so you're having the baby?" She said laughing "No my water didn't break, Faith's water broke and we're on our way to the hospital" I said "Alright sweety." After telling everybody else about Faith we were rushing into the hospital and ready to get a nurse. "Hi, I'm nurse Kate Williams and I will be delivering your children today, sir please put this on" she said handing me doctor clothes. I ran back into the room with the clothes on and Faith was there sweating to the extreme.

Faith POV

This is so painful "Alright get ready to push I can see the head" the doctor said "Okay" I said "One....Two....Three...Push" she said after five more pushes my baby boy Hezekiah Ezekiel Johnson was born. "Alright Faith there is another head now push" a few more pushes and my little baby girl came out and I named her Rebecca Kimberly Johnson. The doctors took the babies away for cleaning and all of that "See baby I told you that no matter what I would be by your side" Jacob said "You sure did and I love you so much for that" I said "I love you more baby, gimme a kiss so I can go tell these people about the babies" Jacob said we kissed and he left out, yet I had a gut feeling that something must be going wrong.

Jacob POV

I walked into the waiting room and told them about the babies five minutes after I told them, a doctor came in "Family of the twins" she said we all gathered around "That's us" I said "I'm sorry, but your baby girl didn't make it, due to her heart being too small enough to function sir if you'd like I can take you into the room with your wife" she said "Jacob do you want me to come back there with you it's the least I could do?" Tyler asked "Yea you can come" I said. We walked back there to tell Faith the news it broke my heart that I wouldn't have a little girl to spoil. I wonder what Faith is going to say when she finds out.

Faith POV

I was told that I had to stay in the hospital for about four to six weeks. Jacob and Tyler walked into the room "Hey did they let you guys see the babies before me because that wouldn't be fair" I said "Baby, our baby girl didn't make it" Jacob said "What?" I asked "Her heart was too small to function" he said "So there won't be a mini me running around, you know I kinda felt that something was going wrong, this is my fau-" Jacob cut me off "It wasn't your fault baby, please don't feel that way, maybe it wasn't our time for a baby girl but that doesn't mean we can't try to have a little girl" he said "Maybe you're right, thanks Tyler you a real one" I said "I had to make sure both of y'all was okay because, I love y'all and I didn't want this to have a negative impact on y'all" she said crying "I'm ready to go home but I have to wait a while" I said "Y'all is a cute ass couple dude, Jacob get your ass over there and hold her" Tyler said "Aye man, I was getting to that, don't make me get Tony in here" Jacob said "You two are like brother and sister, always fighting" I said laughing "That's my big brother, back to you Jacob, bring Tony in here I wanna see this" Tyler said "Wait right here" he said walking out. "Girl you crazy, man this really makes me sad we were both happy about the twins especially Jacob, if only I wouldn't have been thinking negative" I said "It's okay, y'all some freaks so eventually you guys will get to have a baby girl" she said "On the plus side we still have a healthy baby boy" I said "hug it off" Tyler said giving me a hug. Jacob and Tony walked in "Well well well, what happened?" Tony asked "Nothing major, wassup bro" I said covering for Tyler "What it be like Faith, look I'm sorry about the baby but y'all gone get through this, alright" he said "We already got the lecture from Tyler" I said "Oh, well I heard that some lady was causing chaos" he said "Hey hey hey none of that in here" Jacob said "You right, there's a bathroom right there" Tony said "There's also a thing called your house" I said "See y'all later" they left "Jacob can you get your parents in here?" I asked "Yea I can bring them in here" after a few minutes they came in "Faith baby I am so sorry about the baby, but if you ever need me to babysit Hezekiah I will be there" Jacob's mom said "Thank you so much, it means a lot" I said "Alright let me say a word of prayer" Jacob's dad said "Fine by me" I said. After we prayed they left and the nurse finally brought my baby back to my room.

Jacob POV

Behold my son. The doctor gave him to Faith and I took him "Wassup lil man, you look just like me, you the one that had mommy acting crazy with them mood swings" I said "I like the way you just took him from me" Faith said "It was adorable wasn't it" I said teasing her "Jacob bring me our son" she said "Fine, here you go you big baby" I said she smiled "You are so adorable, man you are a spitting image of your father, y'all gone have a great connection with each other" she said "All the more reason for him to be held by me" Jacob said "Okay you can go with your father now" she said. After spending time with my wife and my son they both went to sleep I had to go handle a few things at the office and then I would be back, it really hurt my feelings that my baby girl didn't make it but maybe that's what God wanted.
