Justin-

What is love?
Scientifically, it's a series of chemical reactions between hormones in our brains that make us feel strong emotions towards somebody else.

However some say that love is magic, the strongest form of magic that will ever exist.

But to me, it's neither... Love is simply pointless to me because the last time I truly loved somebody- she died. If love truly was magic then it surely would have protected her, saved her but it didnt.

*Flashback*

"Wake up Daddy" Bella, My four year old daughter, slapped me on my arm playfully and tries to shake me from my slumber with all her might but each time, failed miserably.

She finally gave up and i presumed that she left the room but she had just gotten a cup of water and proceeded to pour the icy cold liquid over me and her mom.

I scrambled up from the bed in surprise and quickly pull my shirt above my head.

I look over to Bella who is sporting her famous toothy grin and chuckling quietly to herself.

"Daddy?"

"Yeah?" I reply, rummaging through my drawers for a shirt.

" Why is mommy shaking? " she asks innocently, completely unaware about what was happening.

I whip my head around quickly and find Y/N on the bed, jerking around uncontrollably.

It feels as though the world is in slow motion.

I run towards the bed and place my wife in the recovery position and place my folded shirt inbetween her teeth so that she doesn't bite through her tongue.

"Bella, I need you to listen carefully....okay?" I ramble, struggling to keep my words coherent.

She nods slowly.

"Go and call 911 and tell them that mommy is having a seizure." I ask, feeling a pang of guilt in my chest. Bella was only four, she didn't deserve to be around traumatic events like this.

She runs towards the telephone and dials 911.

"Hello?"

I wait patiently for her to tell them.

"I need help, mommy is shaking, daddy says that she is having a sweeshure, can you come and help?"

" Thwank you, can you tell them to hurry, my mommy has a baby in her tummy... "

Her last remark breaks my heart.

When she discovered that her mom was pregnant, she was so excited, she say near her mom for half the day, swearing to the baby that she would be the best big sister ever.

Bella runs back into the room and rushes to Y/N's side and places her hand on Y/N's baby bump.
