Chapter 20

Things Change
& Feelings...

"So just take these meds every five hours until you get to feeling better." The doctor said with delight, carrying himself out the door to help a patient further more.

"Let's go hun." Chandler said slowly wheeling me out of the room taking small glimpses ahead as we trudged down the long lifeless hallway.

We arrived home shortly after a brutally long car ride with only the sounds of heavy breathing exhaling my lips every few moments. The doctors words ringed through my ears as I made my way upstairs, "Mrs. Riggs, if this happens again, you could lose your baby. It's heart is not strong enough to keep going like this."

"Emily!" I heard a firm voice call out warningly. I stopped in my tracks turning on my heel to see Chandler looking at me with heavy eyes.

"We need to talk about this." He urged.

"Talk about what? The fact that I can't hold a baby! That I'm not strong enough to help start our family. Or the fact that I can't give you what you've always wanted." I yelled looking at him with sorrowful eyes.

"Baby, just, calm down. I know your scared but, we're gunna get through this. I know we are."

"Yeah and what if we don't! What if the baby dies and it's all my fault!"

"Em," Chandlers head hung low as he resumed his sentence, "maybe, well, it's for the best.. I mean, we are only 20. Are we really ready for this?"

Shocked at his words, I looked away holding on to what was left of my temper. "I'm gunna go lie down."

"Jake. Come over. Now." I said through the phone before hanging up and throwing it across the room. In just a few short minutes there was a loud knock at my window.

"Caroline. Wha- what's, wrong?" He panted, obviously out of breath because of the run he made coming over here.

"I'm dying."

"What!?"

"Jake.. I have cancer."

"Wake up love." A soft voice cue into my ear.

"Ten more minutes." I wined followed by a loud yawn.

"Today's your check up, remember?"

My eyes pealed open as I saw Chandler leaning over my with his beautiful blue eyes shooting straight through mine. "Okay fine, I'm up."

"I picked out your clothes!" Chandler screeched like a little girl. Before I could respond there where clothes flying over to where I lay. I giggled picking up the clothes, there was a pink v-neck shirt and blue jeans with some black shoes. "If your trying to make me go on a run then you failed." I laughed getting up, with the help of Chandler, and making my way to the bathroom for a shower.

When I was all done I straightened my hair and put into a high ponytail. It was getting pretty long so I decided to schedule an appointment to get it trimmed.

"Emily. Come here." I heard a stern husky voice call from behind me.

"Oh Chandler, you startled me." I giggled. "What's up?"

"What the fuck are these." He said holing up a few papers with pictures connected to them.

"Uh I don't know." I stated, continuing to fix my hair.

"Caroline Peterson, age 14, cancer- leukemia, death date 1-23-05." The paper crumbled in his hand as high lips formed a line.

"That's, uh, that's old.."

"Old? You never told me about this. This could be why you can't take care of the baby. We need to get this checked out."

"Don't blame this on m-" the last thing I remember is darkness.
