(A/N I'm sorry.)

| Emma's POV |

Ethan and I are in the car, he says that he and Grayson were messing around after shooting and found a beautiful old farm house at the end of a country lane none of us knew existed.

It's LA there's barely any places like that.

"Gray said that we could buy it and all of us could live there, have our babies run around on the big garden. Imagine building them a swing from that big oak tree" he says pointing towards the back of the house.

It's beautiful, I can only dream of living somewhere so perfect.

Ethan reaches out and grabs my hand and fits them together comfortably, he's beaming at this damn house and I can tell that he really wants this. He really wants to be the best dad and I know that he is going to be.

"I'm so excited, Em" he breathes still holding the wheel even though we're still and he's just left the engine to run "I don't think I'm gonna be able to contain myself" he chuckles analysing my face.

"We're gonna have mini-me's how weird is that?" I smile looking down at my baby bump, were so close now there's only two weeks left until they're going to be here.

"I'm gonna work until we get this house, so that we can bring our children up here and when the time comes so can Gray" he's so excited that he can't stop beaming. He reaches for his phone to ring Grayson to tell him that we're sat looking at the house but he has no service.

"They're gonna need a bedroom at some point" I reply and he nods in agreement putting his phone back in his pocket.

"They're gonna get the world, I promise" he brings his lips down on top of my hand and kisses it sweetly before deciding that it's probably time to go home.

I'm so tired that I feel like I could sleep the next two weeks away.

Recently I've been feeling really content, we've bought everything and it's all ready back home for them to come. The names are sorted, we've settled on two girls names and two boys names so that we're fully prepared no matter what the gender.

"Oh shit" Ethan gasps looking at the tank as the gas slowly runs out. I have a memory flood back to me from the first time we tried to hang.

"Do you think we'll make it to the nearest gas station?" I ask feeling myself grow anxious, I just want to be home not stuck out here with no cell service again.

"If we go slowly we should be alright" he says glancing in his rear view mirror to see if any cars are behind us. There's a car in the distance but it's far enough away for us to go as slow as we can.

Ethan puts his foot down, completely giving up on the slowing down but all of a sudden the car just stops and the car that was now on hot on our heels, slams into the back of us.

The shock of the car just simply being pushed from the back causes me to bend double and I hold my stomach as I feel my blood start to pump faster.

Ethan slides out the car to apologise or shout, who knew at this point, at the driver behind us.

But I can't focus because I have this dull ache in my back and lower abdomen, along with an incredible pressure in the pelvis. I screw my eyes shut and hit my head on the car seat to stop the pain but it doesn't go away- in fact it comes again in another wave.

I don't notice that the car behind us has sped off until Ethan slams himself back into the drivers seat with an annoyed expression.

I don't get to ask what's wrong before another wave of pain flood my whole body and I let a high pitched moan from my mouth. This heavily panics Ethan and he turns to touch my arm, his eyes rapidly scanning my body and face.

"Ethan-" I whisper, my eyes are becoming glossy, I'm so fucking scared "-I can't have the babies" I want to remind him that if I do I'll fucking die but I stop myself from saying that.

"We need to get to a hospital" he breaths running his hand through his hair as he starts to jig "holy fuck this can't be happening, it can't be happening" he chants frantically trying for his phone to get signal.

With no gas and no cell service we're stuck for options.

My forehead starts to sweat profusely and I start to cry, holding onto my stomach as another contraction occurs.

"I don't want to die" I sob into a gasp from the pain and Ethan doesn't know what to do with himself, he's fully freaking out.

"You're not gonna die" he repeats over and over again but it sounds like he's trying to convince himself "Just hold on okay- fuck"

He looks around in a hurry to see if he can spot any other cars, but everything's silent apart from my cries of pain.

If I don't get to a hospital quick not only are my babies going to die, but so am I and just the thought of that causes me to panic more.

"I'm going to have to run to get a phone" Ethan states but I grab onto his hand tightly.

"No please don't leave me" I cry "don't leave me, Ethan, Please"

"Em I don't want to, please don't make this harder than it is" he's fully crying as he's saying it "I'll be as fast as possible, Princess, I promise"

I slowly retract my hand to hold my stomach, my bottom lip trembling. I don't want to be alone right now, the fear of dying out here on my own makes me feel panicked.

"I'm sorry" Ethan sobs "please be okay" he mutters before swinging himself out of the car and breaking out into the fastest run I've ever seen.

Soon he's out of sight and I wonder if it'll be the last time I'll ever see him.

Seconds feels like minutes, minutes feels like hours.

My breathing is uneven and keeps catching in my lungs and the extreme pain I'm feeling stands to mask the need for someone to be here.

The leggings I'm wearing are drenched in blood, sweat and tears- literally.

I scream again, hitting the car door. I'm going to die, holy fuck it's really kicking in that I'm going to die.

"Ethan" I sob to myself feeling another stronger wave, it's getting worse and worse "ethan etHAN ETHAN" I sob but he's no where near.

I grip my own jumper between my fists as I moan again, this time shrilling through the car louder than ever before. There's still no sign of him and although I feel like giving up, my body keeps going.

I look down at the car seat where my legs are pooled and I unclench my fists to look at my shaky blood drenched hands.

I've lost so much blood.

So much.

And Ethan still isn't here.
