Maybe it was fate

Chapter 37

Madisons pov ~ Listen to Amnesia

I woke up from my nap around 4 pm. Holy crap i slept way too long. I got up and walked tp the nursery, both the babies were sleeping. I sat in the rocking chair watching them and began crying. I dont even know why i just started crying. As my tears started to calm down Ashton came running upstairs. "Madison!" He yelled throwing open our door then realizing i wasnt there he ran to the nursery. "Madison! We have to go." He said packing a diaper bag.

"Ashton calm down, what happened?" I said grabbing his shoulder turning him around. his eyes were filled with tears.

"Somethings wrong with Michael, we went in his room thinking he was sleeping so we left but 4 hours later i checked on him and he wasnt breathing properly and he wouldnt wake up." Ashton said sobbing.

"Where is he?" I asked trying to stay calm, but i couldnt. Michael was one of my best friends.

"Jordynn took him and the other boys to the hospital, we really need to go." He wiped at his tears and began putting the babies in there car seats.

"Ashton," i said as he put down Mckenna. He turned around facing me. I wanted to tell him everything will be okay, but i wasnt sure. So i wrapped my arms around his neck, tangling my fingers in his curls, and kissed him. "I love you." I said resting my forehead on his.

"I love you too." His voice trembled. He was trying not to cry. "Alright," he said pulling away. "We've got to go." He said picking up one car seat. I nodded picking up the other. Brianna and Riley followed us out to the car. The ride was really silent, no one wanted to talk. There was the occasional baby cry or giggle, but nobody was talking. When we arrived at the hospital we tried to stay calm but ended up slightly speed walking. Michael was on the 2nd floor in icu (intensive care unit) no one was allowed to see him, doctors were still trying to figure out what was going on. We all sat in the waiting room. Riley kept the babies occupied. They just left the hospital and now they're back. A tall,very nerdy looking doctor began walking towards us.

"Are you guys here with Michael Clifford?" He asked and we all nodded. "Well we've got him breathing properly again and he just woke up so you'll be able to see him in about 30 minutes." He smiled lightly but only received nods. He walked away and Luke began talking.

"I cant believe this." He said resting his head on his hands. "I shouldve known he wasnt asleep. Michael only takes short naps he doesnt sleep until 4." He said dropping his head to his knees. Jordynn began holding his hand and trying to comfort him. I looked at Ashton who had a very serious look on his face.

"I couldve stopped him." He mumbled to himself.

"What Ash?" He looked at me suprised.

"Nothing." He shook his head and began looking at the wall again. We sat in silence until a nurse came out speaking softly.

"He's awake," she smiled. "You can go in, no more than 2 at a time." she said walking away. Did we listen? Nope. We all rushed into the room at once, including Ashton and I holding the babies. It was a tight fit but we made it work.

"What the hell Michael." Luke said shutting the door behind us. He looked down playing with his hospital bracelet. "What the fu.."

"Luke shut up." Ashton half yelled. "Michael, what exactly happened." He said. Michael sighed before explaining.

"I kept thinking about Morgan, how i was a total douche, our fights were stupid... i was stupid. I couldnt get her off my mind, i couldnt stop thinking about anything so i left. I wasnt planning on doing anything but i ended up drinking, alot. I was hanging out with some guys at the bar when i complained of a headache. They all shared a laugh before handing me a small blue tablet. He said it was ibuprofen but i was too drunk to tell so i took it. I went home about five minutes later,  it was 4 in the morning, i felt really sick so i went and layed down. I layed in my room for a second and got really dizzy, everything began spinning. Then i blacked out." A small tear rolled down his face. There was silence. No one knew what to say. The nurse walked in and rolled her eyes.

"I said two at a time, now get." She said looking around. Everyone left except me and the babies. She glanced down at them and smiled before shutting the door. Michael glanced down and noticed them too. He smiled brightly.

"Hi twinkies." He laughed. Michael calls them twinkies because they're twinzies and apperantly the golden color of twinkies.

"Which one do you want?" I said unbuckling them both.

"Let me see Jakob." He smiled. Jakob was his favorite because he swears they look alike. But i refuse to dye my sons hair. He played with Jakob before looking up at me. "Im sorry." He sighed. "I just really miss her." I nodded, understanding what he was saying.

"Next time," i began "instead of leaving, come talk to me, ok?" I said with tears in my eyes. He nodded before signaling me closer. I walked over and hugged him tightly.

"Dont cry small fry." He said. The hug was awkward since we were both holding babies. I nodded gently and he kissed my head. I pulled away and wiped my tears.

"Ill go so more people can come in." I said putting Mckenna in her seat.

"Can i keep this one for a while." He said smiling down at Jakob.

"Of course." I giggled lightly. I picked up the carseat and walked back to the waiting room. "Two more are free to go in." I said sitting down. Calum and Bri walked back and i leaned on Ashton.

"Are you alright?" He asked quietly. I nodded before replying.

"We need to call Morgan."
