Nicole's POV

"Nicole, sweetie, you're going to be okay. We're taking you to the hospital right now." I heard an EMT say to me, as they put me on a stretcher and hauled me into the ambulance. Louis was holding my hand and climbed in with me.

"Louis, we'll meet you at the hospital, and we'll call the others." Harry said before the ambulance doors closed. I was dizzy, and from what I could feel, I was still bleeding; ALOT. But I was confused. Why am I bleeding? I thought you weren't suppose to bleed during pregnancy. I slightly turned my head to face Loui, who was squeezing my hand with his left one, and stroking my hair with his right. He looked scared, and nervous. After that, everything went blank.

"She's waking up."  heard a faint voice, which I recognized to belong to Harry. But he sounded weird...like he's been crying or something. I slowly opened my eyes, adjusting to the lights of the room. I was laying in a hospital bed, in nothing but a hospital gown. I had slight cramps, and I was a little sore. I tried sitting up, but I quickly fell back. Louis rushed over to my side, his eyes red and puffy. I looked around the room to find everyone; Harry, Jess, Zayn, Aria, Sofia, Niall, Danielle and Liam. They all looked as if they've been crying. I am absolutely clueless about what is going on...but I don't think I like it. I place my frail hand on my stomach; there was nothing. No kicking...it seemed; lifeless. I quickly became panicked.

"Lou...w-what h-happened? W-why am I in the hospital?" I questioned, my voice becoming shaky. His bottom lip started to quiver, and I could see the tears brimming the rims of his no longer bright eyes; waiting to spill out. My heart started racing. This obviously wasn't going to be good news.

"Nic-nicole," he said in a shaky tone. He paused, taking a deep breath. "Love, w-we lost her/" he stated, taking my hand in his and buying his head into it, letting his tears slip down his face. I knew what was going on now, but I didn't want to believe it. "W-what do you mean w-we lost her?" I sobbed, now letting the tears spill out of my eyes. This couldn't be happening.

"Nicole...you, you had a misscarage. You fainted in the ambulance on the way here due to the amount of blood you lost. They took you into surgery t-to remove the fetus. I'm so s-sorry." he said, now sobbing. He climbed into the tiny bed with me, and I cried into his chest. Why? Why did this happen to me? What did I do to deserve this? I brought my head back up to examine everyone else. They were all in tears. Harry was holding Jess, letting her cry into his chest while he sobbed into her hair. Zayn had his arm around Aria as she cried into his shoulder, while a few tears slip from his eyes, not bothering to wipe them away. Danielle and Liam were embracing each other, both sobbing into each other's shoulders. And Niall had his arms wrapped tightly around Sofia as she cried into his chest, he looked down at his feet sniffling his tears away.

A doctor entered the room, and the others left, giving me and Louis some privacy. "Nicole, I am terribly sorry for your loss." Dr. Grey said.

"W-what caused the misscarage? Was it my f-fault? I thought I was doing everything right...I was trying to be so careful." I sobbed even harder, trying to figure out why the world is such a cruel and scarry place to live in.

"Sweetie, it had nothing to do with you. You were doing everything you were supposed to be doing. The misscarage was the result of the embryo not being genetically correct, and it's a natural and unpreventable thing. It wasn't growing properly and your body naturally aborted it on it's own." she paused letting all the information sink in. "It's a horrible process to have to experience, but you need to understand that it wasn't your fault at all." she informed me, trying to console us. I didn't speak. I couldn't speak. My head wanted to ask more questions, but my mouth didn't want the words to come out. I just sat there; frozen and numb in Louis' arms. He stayed silent as well. Most likely because he had to hear all of this before I did.
