Chapter Seventeen: Blood and Pain

Iris' POV:
It's been four days since my doctors appointment and six days since I told my parents. My Dad still hasn't spoken to me. My Mom however has been on cloud nine since the doctors visit. I'm sitting in the cafeteria with Barry and our friends who are super supportive.

Cisco: I still can't believe you two are having a baby.

Cynthia: I know right.

Wally: (excited) I'M GONNA BE AN UNCLE! That's so cool.

Iris: Thank you guys for being so supportive.

Barry: Yea thank you guys. It means a lot.

Jessie: No problem.

Parker: How does it feel physically to be pregnant?

Iris: Like an invasion of my body. It's like she's in control, but it's not so bad.

Caitlin: Are you two happy about becoming parent's?

Barry: I'm scared as hell, but happy.

Iris: Same.

Wally: Well I can't wait for my niece to get here so that I can spoil the hell out of her.

Lunch ends and we all leave to go to our last class. Barry and I have the same class and we sit right next to each other. I'm happy to have him by my side because the stares and whispering can be a bit much, but Barry makes me feel safe and okay.

*Later that night*

I'm in the family room doing my homework when my parents walk in and sit down.

Iris: Hi.

Cecile: Hey sweetie.

My Dad doesn't say anything to me. He doesn't even look at me. I can feel the tears forming in my eyes so before they could roll down my face I grab my things and go to my room.

*2:00 a.m.*

I'm lying in bed crying because I feel like my Dad hates me. He's never treated me this way before no matter what I did. I suddenly feel a sharp pain in my stomach. I don't pay it any mind, but it happens again and I feel something warm and wet running down my legs. I wipe my leg and look at my hand. It's covered in blood. I get out of bed and leave the room trying to make it to my parents room, but the pain worsened and I collapsed on the floor. I lie there unable to move at this point there is blood everywhere. The pain is so bad that I can't do anything, but hold my stomach and scream out in agony.

Wally's POV:
I hear a loud thud in the hallway so I get out of bed to see what's going on. As I'm walking to the door I hear Iris scream an agonising scream and I run into the hallway. She's lying on the floor holding her stomach and crying. There's blood all over her and everywhere else. I run toward her and I slip in the pool of blood that's on the floor. Now I'm covered in her blood, that doesn't matter to me. I lift her head up towards me.

Wally: (scared) Iris what happened?

Iris: (crying) I don't know. Please get Mom.

I take off running to my parents bedroom. When I get there I just burst through the door without knocking. I turn on the light and yell to my parents.

Wally: (yells) MOM, DAD GET UP!

My parents jump up at the sound of me yelling. When my Mom see the blood all over me she panicked.

Cecile: (shocked/panicked) WALLY WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?!

Wally: (scared/panicked) IT'S IRIS SOMETHING'S WRONG. THERE'S BLOOD EVERYWHERE!
