His best friend

Chapter Sixteen

Rochelle P.O.V

Graceland December 24, 1960

Pain shot throught my body like a bolit, i jumped from the bed feeling tingles all through my body. It was hard to breath. The pain through my back and stomach was too much to bare. And i instantly knew something wasn't right.

I looked towards the bed and Elvis wasn't there then panic came over me. I slowly made my way to the panic button Elvis had under the ligh switch near the door, thinking and hoping someone is downstairs.

The pain grew more and more where i could barely stand right, The door flew open and I clinged onto Elvis. "Hospital.... Now.." I breathed out those were the only two words i could make out.

Elvis gave me a concerned look , and gently picked me up. Telling Joe to get the car ready, I wasn't perpared at all for this night and eathier was Elvis. The ride to the hospital seemed like it went forever but once we arrived, everybody was in panic mode.

Nurse's rushed around me, countless of doctors came through back and forth. It was madness. Elvis was the only person who keept me half sane. From what I could make out of the doctors talks is that they had to do an emergency C-section.

They wheeled me back in the surgery room, the walls were white. And only a chair sits in the corner. 3 nurse's and 3 doctors rushed in the room behind me.

I couldnt remember anything after that, they say i blacked out. When I woke Elvis had his head in his hands. Mumbling nonsense while shaking his head.

"Elvis....." My throat felt dry as i tried to speak. Elvis's head shot up, his eyes were blood shot as if he's been crying.

"Babyy. Oh Elle." He rushed over to me, putting his head in my lap. Fear came over me when i realized there was an incubator but no baby.

"Where.... Where is he." I choked i could barley speak. Elvis shook his head as tears formed in his eyes.

"He-He didn't make it..." Elvis whimpered. Every bone in my body broke as I heard his words. It made me sick to my stomach. I was speachless.

"But.But we did everything right... I don't understand." I cried, Elvis didnt say anything he just held me. Whipping my tears he looked up at me.

"I love you." He whispered, chupping my cheeks. He brushed my bangs back, and kissed me gently.

"I love you." I replied back with a small smile.
