Harper walked into the kitchen. She was quiet. Charlee stood there and looked to her and frowned. She could tell that her sister was off and that there was something off with her. She looked as Harper sat down and starred into space. She ran her hands through her hair and sighed as Charlee walked over and sat next to her and smiled "I know that there is something going on" "I'm fine" Harper said as she started into space "I know you, and I know when there's something bothering you. Your my little sister and I know you. Talk to me, tell me what it is" Charlee said as Harper looked to her with tears in her eyes "I don't know what to do" "about what" "something is wrong with the baby. I haven't felt it move. I'm so scared" she said as Charlee looked to her and frowned. She realised what she was saying

"Listen, Ill tell you what we are going to do. We are going to go to the hospital and get you and the baby checked out. Don't worry until you have to. She could just be asleep and a lazy bum like her mum. We will sort this" he said as Charlee smiled. Harper was scared and she didn't know what to do. She was terrified. Charlee pulled her into a hug and sighed. She was scared and worried for her little sister. She had a gut feeling over what was wrong and it was breaking her heart to think off as she knew it would kill Harper as she was the one that had to go through it. Harper has already lost her baby and not a thing could help her. Charlee knew she couldn't help Harper and she hated knowing there was nothing that she could do

Harper sat with Charlee in the hospital as a nurse came in to do a scan. Harper looked to Charlee and sighed "I'm scared" she said as Charlee smiled "I know babes" Charlee said as the nurse was quiet for a few minutes before she looked to Harper and frowned "I'm so sorry Harper, your baby has died" she said as Harper looked to her and shock her head "no, no" Harper said as she started to sob. Charlee wrapped an arm around her sister as Harper broke down in her chest "I'm so sorry" Charlee said knowing nothing she could say would be able to comfort Charlee "I need him here, Tom and I want my mum" she said as Charlee smiled "I'll call them" Charlee said as Harper sat sobbing

Harper sat in the hospital as she held the baby that she had given birth to. Her little girl. Her small baby who was so beautiful. Tom walked into the room and sat next to her on the bed and smiled "I'm so sorry" he said as he wrapped an arm around her "we didn't even discuss names" she said as he smiled "Hope, she can we our hope" he said as she nodded not nesting to hand her baby over not knowing just how much it was going to break her
