Clumsy Is My Middle Name!!! (Book 2)

25-What Is So Special To Save Me?

GRACE'S POV

The whole situation was intense. Anyone could sense the tension. Father told us everything. Alex was very supportive and so was everyone. I was glad that I had everyone's support. But my brain and body were shaking in fear.

I didn't know how to cope with such stuff. It was too intense and too serious even for my own problems.

Looking back to the time, four people had lost their lives saving mine. Elena; my biological mother, Ana; Lucas' mother, Marilyn; my mother and lastly, Sierra, my best friend.

What is so special to save you?

My brain wandered over the question and it was hurting me. I couldn't believe, all my life, I was so oblivious and unknown about my real life and identity.

Everyone had left, just a while ago. They left when they saw that I wasn't even saying a word. I didn't know what to speak anymore. My words and thoughts were wandering around.

I was on the bed, my head resting against the pillow. I felt warmth on my face. It was Alex, wiping away something from my face. I touched my face and found it wet. Alex sat beside me, on his side.

"Don't cry, honey. I'll be there for you, always." He said and I could see the sincerity in his eyes. We had fought so many things, within ourselves and with the world, too. It was a different battle, this time.

"Alex, four people gave away their lives for me. How am I supposed to live with that? What is so special about me for people to sacrifice their lives for me? I'm just normal human being. I feel...I shouldn't ever have been born and it would've saved so many lives. Four precious lives." I told him as more tears flew down my eyes.

"Ace, look at me." He said and I couldn't dare to look at someone's eyes, but I looked up to him.

"Ace, your life is very precious to the ones who saved you. Saying that, you're making their sacrifice a waste. Your mother fought for you and brought you into this world. Ana kept you safe because she knew that you had a long life ahead. Marilyn, who couldn't conceive, you made her a mother. Sierra knew how pure you were, also, you had two babies to look after. You had importance in everyone's lives, Ace. Don't say that, ever again. You are my soulmate, my better half, the mother of my unborn children, my family, my everything, do you still think your life wasn't worth saving?" He asked and I almost felt guilty.

"I'm sorry. I'll never think like that every again. I'll worth everyone's sacrifice. I'll worth my life. I'll keep it treasured since it's not just mine. I'm sorry. I'm really very sorry." I said and hugged him.

I didn't let him go. I felt him wrap his arms around me. I let all the thoughts and pain flow out of my head. I let my body rest in his arms.

"I love you." I heard faintly before I fell into sleep, in his arms.

"Awe, you guys are couple goals." I heard a loud voice almost scream. It was Celia who had barged in. I looked to my side to see Alex was still in his sitting position while I had been sleeping on his stomach.

"Celia! You woke her up!" Alex glared her. I chuckled.

"I'll be out, now, shoo!" I said and she giggled but left, closing the door behind her.

"I can't believe she's so shameless." Alex commented and helped me up. I sat and yawned and stretched. We both got up and took shower. Alex help me scrub, since it was hard moving.

"Well, I think, we should go for baby shopping. I couldn't shop later on. My belly is already so big now." I pouted and he laughed.

"Okay, clear my schedule before lunch. We'll go out for lunch and then leave for shopping." I gave him a 'thumbs up' and smiled.
