We Can't(stepdadxstepdaughter)

Justine's POV

"Miss. Wilson, you're okay. This is a common thing with twins and multiples, it's known as Vanishing Twin Syndrome, and the other twin, Twin B, is perfectly fine. Heart rate is good and steady, and it seems to be moving just fine for 9 weeks and 3 days." The ob/gyn on call explains to me as he does an ultrasound to confirm the status of Baby B's health.

"So what could have caused this to happen Doc?" Dan asks as he holds my hand and the doctor shrugs.

"This is technically a miscarriage, but there could be some factors that could cause them. Stress is one, another is extreme temperatures hot or cold, strenuous physical activity, like running constantly, falls onto the abdominal area, and physical altercations with others. I'll let you guys be for the night, and Miss. Wilson, if you need anything at all, press the call button and Nurse Raheem will come in." He says and I look at Dan who looks at me.

"Your mom could have done this. She shoved you." He mumbles and I nod as I place my hand on my abdomen and hope like hell I can keep this one to at least 22 weeks, which is viability.

Mom and Chad show up around four thirty, and Mom scoffs when she sees I have a baby heart monitor belt on.

"Too bad you didn't lose both of them." She mumbles and that's when I see Chad lose it.

"Eline! That enough for fucks sake! She is your daughter!" Chad yells at mom and she glares at him.

"No she isn't, she's a slut. I didn't raise a slut." Mom says and I feel my heart breaking.

"Eline, that baby is mine! Not Daniel's! I'm not in love with you! Why do you fucking think I'm sleeping in the guest room away from you? I have filed for an annulment and it's almost ready to go to court! You will not endanger my other child's life with your pathetic jealously bullshit!" Chad yells and mom looks shocked as she looks between us.

"What the fuck?"
