I Won't Give Up ~ Michael Clifford

Bree;

Well, it's been one hell of a night. Ashton and I spent our night in the hospital, Luke and Cal went back to the hotel shortly after I got my intravenous put in and I miss my babies. We spent most of the night watching Netflix on Ashton's phone, Maddie kept checking up on me - it got a bit annoying, and now it's nearly 7 in the morning and I can't go back to sleep.

Ashton's asleep right next to me and is snoring quietly, thankfully, but he's taking up most of the bed. I nudge his arm a couple times, saying his name but he's not budging. I sigh and decide to watch Netflix by myself, so I start watching The Secret Life Of Pets 2.

I'm halfway through my second movie when I hear Ash groan lightly, readjusting his body and his arm goes over my waist. I'm frozen in my spot while I'm looking at him wide eyed and I decide he needs to wake up now so I nudge him harder than earlier.

"Five more minutes, B. I don't wanna go to school." He groans and I have to hold back my laughter.

"Ashton, hey. Wake up." I shake him by his arm and he lifts his head, looking at me with a tired smile.

"Good morning." He croaks and looks down to where his arm is and his eyes are wide, "Shit, sorry."

He sits up and stretches then hums, laying back down and cuddling up into the blanket. I shake my head while laughing, "Get your ass up, Ash. It's after 11 now."

"Noooo" He laughs but gets up anyways, "Be right back."

He walks out of the room and out of sight, I continue watching my movie until an actual doctor walks in with a clipboard in his grasp.

"Bree, hi. I'm Doctor Fernandez, how are you feeling today?" He asks and I lightly smile.

"I feel a lot better than last night, thank you." I reply and place Ashton's phone down.

"Great, so I wanted to do an ultrasound, some more bloodwork and check your vitals then we could go over what the next move is after that." Doctor Fernandez says with a smile and I agree, Ashton walks back in and sits in the chair this time.

"What's I miss?" Ash asks while the doctor walks out to go get everything ready.

"They want more bloodwork, an ultrasound and to check my vitals then they want to talk afterwards then I'm hoping we can leave this place." I respond as I turn my phone on to check my messages.

"Hey! You used most of my battery, brat." Ashton whines and I burst into laughter.

"Sorry not sorry" I stick my tongue out at him then realize what he called me, "And I'm not a brat, you asshole"

He joins in on my laughter and we talk more until the doctor comes back, with a laboratory person and an ultrasound technician. They do the bloodwork first, continuing onto checking my vitals then now the ultrasound.

"Bree, did you want to know what you're having?" Doctor Fernandez asks, placing the gel on my stomach and I think about it.

Part of me doesn't want to know, but another part of me does, them another part of me is telling myself to wait for Michael but another is saying he probably doesn't want anything to do with me anymore.

"Yes, I do please." I answer, I'll just get Ashton to tell Mikey since he's here instead of Michael.

"Okay, here we go." He starts roaming the machine around my belly and then my bubby shows up on the screen.

"Your baby is healthy as a veggie with a strong heartbeat, and the gender is...." He squints his eyes over dramatically and smiles, "A healthy baby boy."
