Noah was still holding Mariah trying to process what he just heard her say.He snapped out of it when he felt her double over in pain again

"Ow Noah"she screamed

"Alright we need to get you to the hospital,let me go get Mom"he went to go get her  

"No"Mariah shouted"I don't want her near me"she stopped him

"Okay,let's go"he ushered her to her car

He was driving as fast as he could he took her hand"Just breathe it's going to be alright"

"I can't be in labor it's way to soon"she cried 

"Hey don't freak out it may be nothing"he tried to reassure her

Mariah shook her head"I can't lose them,I didn't mean it" she cried in pain

                  **********************************

Tessa was on the phone with the realtor "Stacey this is Tessa Copeland Porter unfortunately we will not be taking the house after all.Some things have come up.But thank you so much for all your help"she told her and hung up. 

A few seconds later her phone rang again.A small smile came across her face

"Hey, Baby,I'm so sorry about our fight please come home"

"Tessa"a voice that was not Mariah's was heard

By the sound of the voice Tessa knew something was wrong"Noah what is it what is wrong"

"It's Mariah you need to come to the hospital"he told her

                 **************************************

Tessa was usually a careful driver but knowing her wife was in the hospital she didn't care if she was speeding.She didn't pay attention to where she was parking.She ran in to get to Mariah

"Maternity"she said all out of breath 

The nurse told her it was on the forth floor.Tessa ran as fast as she could.She started hitting the buttons quickly to the elevator.She was getting impatient so she ran up the stairs

                  *****************************

Mariah was curled on the bed.Noah was holding her hand and stroking her hair 

"This can't be happening"Mariah cried

"It's gonna be okay.The doctors will figure out what is going on"

"I'm scared"she told him

"I know you are and I promise I won't leave your side until Tessa is here"

Mariah slowly nodded as the tears ran down her face"I want Tessa I need her"she said the a contraction hit "Ow,ow,ow"she kept repeating

"Just squeeze my hand.I got you"he told her 

The door opened and Tessa walked in and stood there watching Noah coach Mariah. Noah made eye contact with Tessa he leaned down to Mariah's ear 

"Mariah"he said in a soft tone"Tessa is here"he smiled at her

After the contraction subsided she turned to Tessa.Tessa saw the tears coming down her face 

"Tess"Mariah's voice broke

Tessa went to her side.She cupped Mariah's face"I'm so sorry Baby,I'm here now"she ran her fingers through her hair

"I'm so sorry,I didn't mean.."she started to say
