~Kind of a sad chapter, just a heads up~

The next morning, I wake up before Ross. I lay there and admire my ring. It's gorgeous.

Ross rolls over and wraps his arms around me and kisses my shoulder.

"Good morning." He says. "Still looking at your ring?"

"It's gorgeous. I love it so much."

I roll over so I'm on top him and I kiss him.

In the middle of the kiss, his phone rings.

"Let it go to voicemail." He whispers.

I sit up.

"Just answer it." I say grabbing his phone off the nightstand.

"Hello?" He answers.

His face drops.

"We'll be right there." He says and hangs up the phone.

"What's wrong?" I ask.

"Michelle was found unconscious this morning; they don't know if she's going to pull through it this time, I guess she got really sick."

"Oh my gosh. We need to go."

Neither of us bother showering, we just grabbed whatever clothes we could find and quickly got ready and left to go to the hospital.

~~

We arrive at the hospital and we check in at the front desk to find out where Michelle is.

"Are you related?" The lady at the front desk asks us.

"No, but I'm the father of her son." Ross says.

"I'm sorry, but only family is allowed."

"They can come back." A girl says walking down the hall with tear stains on her face.

"Olivia?" Ross asks.

"Who's that?" I ask Ross quietly.

"Michelle's sister." He whispers back.

"Are you sure?" The lady at the front desk asks Olivia.

"Yeah, I'm sure. She'd want them here."

We follow Olivia to Michelle's room.

"How is she?" Ross asks her.

Olivia starts to cry.

"They said she's probably not going to make it till noon."

It's 10:00 now, so that's not looking good.

Ross hugs her.

After they hug, Olivia walks over to me and walks next to me.

"You must be Natalie. It's nice to meet you." She says.

"You too."

I really don't know what to say. Now's not really the time for conversation.

We finally get to her room.

Michelle is laying in the hospital bed, still unconscious.

What looks like her parents and Trevor are in there.

"Natalie, this is my mom Whitney, and my dad Steven."

"Hi." I say.

"I'm glad you two could come." Whitney says.

Ross and I sit down at the two empty seats and Whitney hands Trevor to Ross.

Trevor looks up and smiles at Ross.

"Hey buddy." Ross says.

It's so sad that he has absolutely no idea what's going on.

We all sit there talking about random things just to keep the room from being silent.

About an hour after we got there; a bunch of machines start going off and doctors run into the room.

"Can someone please take the little boy out of here?" One of the nurses ask nicely.

"I'll take him." I offer.

I take Trevor from Ross and walk into the hall.

I'm watching what's happening from the window, it doesn't look good.

Trevor started to get really heavy and I look at him and he's sound asleep.

A few minutes later, Whitney and Steven start crying into each others arms and Olivia hugs Ross and is crying.

They all come out of the room about 5 minutes later.

Olivia walks over to me and kisses Trevor's head.

"I'm so sorry." I say to her.

Ross comes over and takes Trevor from me.

"I have to go sign some papers regarding Trevor." He says.

"Okay, take your time."

~~

By the time we get home, it's about 4. After Ross signed the papers, we went to Michelle's parents house and got some of his stuff.

"Want something to eat?" I ask Ross.

"Sure."

I go in the kitchen and find something to cook. I find chicken nuggets and start to make them.

After I put them in the oven, I go back into the living room.

The boys are on the floor playing.

"I put chicken nuggets in the oven." I tell him.

"Okay."

"How are you holding up?"

I really didn't want to bring it up, but he hasn't said anything about it and I don't want him to hold it in.

"I'm more upset for him." He says nodding at Trevor. "He just lost his mom and he doesn't even know it. He's going to grow up not knowing who she is."

"Yeah, I feel bad for him."

The food's done about twenty minutes later.

After dinner, we put in a movie then went to bed. We didn't care how early it was; it's been a long day.

A/N

Sorry, I know it's sad, but I didn't know what to write and a couple people suggested it.

I think I'm going to end this story around chapter 20..I'm running out of ideas. I don't like that it's so short, but I don't want to keep repeating events and have it get boring.
