*Episode 20*
Demi and Joe stood in the living room making lunch before Demi had to go into the studio. "Hey mom." Landon said sitting at the counter gripping her stomach.
"What's up kiddo?" Demi asked turning her attention to the teen. Demi could see a look of distress and pain on her face. "Joe can you go check to see if Yasmin is almost ready?" Demi asked, trying to talk to Landon alone.
"Mom, I'm scared." Landon sighed.
"About what?" Demi asked, sitting next to her.
"I don't know, becoming an adult. Kali and I are turning 18 on tomorrow, and I am freaking out." Landon confessed.
"Is Taylor gonna take you out?" Demi asked. Taylor is Landon's boyfriend. They met when Yasmin and Payton, Taylor's sister, had a play date. Hit off right off the bat.
"Yeah, Kali, Jake, Taylor, and I are going out together, but it's weird. You know being pregnant on your 18th birthday. Kali told me about Corrine, and that really freaked me out. Now I'm, like paranoid you know." Landon honestly spoke. Demi nodded.
"I'm scared too. I went from being a single gal on the hunt, to a mom of three soon to be four. Not to mention my oldest are about to be moms at 18. We are all scared. The only one who might not be that scared is Yasmin. That's only because she is gonna be an aunt and big sister at seven." Demi explained. Landon nodded, and put her head on Demi's shoulder. Soon, Kalani came up the stairs.
"Where's Joe?" She asked quickly.
"He went upstairs, why?" Demi replied.
"Because, Isaac might have put his fire truck through the wall. And there met or may not be a hole in the wall now." Kalani choked out.
"Boys... You gotta love them." Demi muttered, before calling Joe down over the intercom.
At the studio, Demi was in the middle of recording her solo version of 'Really Don't Care' when over the music she heard a pop, then a gush of water seeped from her vaginal area. She had been through this before and knew what it meant. The pain wasn't there initially, but somewhere between the studio and the studio parking lot it started to kick in. Yasmin stayed behind with Natalie and Andrew, a bodyguard at the studio. "Andrew can you watch her. I'll be right back." Natalie said. Andrew hid a smirk and nodded.
At the hospital Demi laid in the bed chillen, waiting for Joe to arrive with she and Harmony's things. "Ms. Lovato." A nurse said coming into her room. Demi got a weird look since it wasn't the nurse she had before. "Your daughter, Landon has been admitted into the hospital." The woman said before leaving.
"Wait, what?" Demi said in a sigh. She waited impatiently as Joe took his time to get there. "Finally!" Demi screamed. Joe threw the bags into the corner and sat next to Demi's bed.
"Hi to you too." Joe said.Demi rolled her eyes.
"Landon was admitted and I need you to find out why." Demi said, doing her best to ignore all waves of pain that had fallen over her.
"Demi what about the baby?" Joe asked getting up.
"Joe, I have been laying in this bed for 3 hours, our baby is fine. I'm worried about her baby." Demi said quickly, pointing to the door. Joe nodded and ran out the room to the nurses station.
"Can you tell me where Landon Lovato's room is?" Joe asked. The nurse gave him a sorry look and pointed him towards her room. As Joe ran to her room, his head began to swirl. All the worst possibilities had just come to mind. Once he hit her room the answer hit him like a ton of bricks. She was curled up in the corner if the bed cradling her stomach.
"This wasn't supposed to happen..." She whispered. Joe sat on the edge of the bed, and immediately was pulled into a tight grasp.
"What happened? What's wrong?" Joe asked in a panic. Landon shook her head in frustration and sorrow.
"I'm fine, but my baby isn't. They said that my baby is really small, and hasn't grown much. And if they keep it up, he might not live." Landon cried. Joe held her close, and stroked her hair. "Daddy, I'm scared." Landon cried. Her tears were soaking his shirt, but he couldn't care less.
"It's okay Lani. Your baby will be just fine. And tonight you and Kali can go out and take your mind off of this. It is your birthday weekend." Joe pleaded. Landon sighed, and nodded. "I'll get you signed out and we can go check on Demi." Joe left the room, to find a doctor and Landon started to text her twin.
Back at the studio, Natalie had been gone for a while and Yasmin was getting antsy. "Can I go see my mommy now?" Yasmin asked, for the fourth time in 5 minutes.
"Shut the hell up!" He yelled. Andrew was starting to get fed up, and took the back of his large hand to her cheek. Yasmin knew that feeling all to well. The last home she had been was like that and it sent her into a dark place. Slowly that dark place was slipping back into her body. Andrew got up and left Yasmin on the ground, caressing her cheek. When Natalie came back in, and saw what Andrew had done, she instantly was scared for Yasmin.
"Yazzi, baby, Are you okay?" Natalie asked, picking her up, and moving her hand. A bruise was forming and it was to much to cover up. Natalie knew she had to take Yasmin to Demi, but didn't want to stress her, and was screwed.
Kalani sat on she and Jakes bed trying to stop the shooting pain in her lower stomach. "Baby, wake up." She said. Jake was taking a nap before the graveyard shift at his job.
"What?" He snapped at her. Kalani shook her head, and went to their bathroom. Quickly she found a heating pad, and took it up stairs to the living room. She laid that on her lower stomach for a good 10 minutes and the pain had stopped. "Why the hell did you wake me, if you didn't need me?" Jake said coming up the stairs, looking in the fridge for some food.
"I did need you but, you replied like an ass so I left." Kalani responded.
"I was trying to get some sleep before work. Since I was the one up with Isaac last night." Jake yelled, standing behind the couch.
"And? I don't care. I'm your pregnant girlfriend. But since you want to go there, No you weren't up with him last night. You got up-"
"Yes, I fuckin' was. You slept the entire time. I was up at 3 am." Jake interrupted.
"One time! You got up once. I-" Kalani stopped herself. "Why am I even fighting with you? Don't give me shit for doing as best as I can at six months pregnant." Kalani said looking at her phone.
"Your pregnant not crippled. Take care of your kid." Jake said about to leave the room.
"I do! Take care of your attitude, Asshole!" She yelled, as he walked out of the house flipping her off. Kalani rolled rolled her eyes and shut her eyes to get some sleep, as Isaac took a nap.
