Take Me There

Chapter 43

I wake up in the middle of the night, uncomfortable. I turn onto my left side. Then to my right, then on my back. I give up and sit up. "Ow." I whisper. The baby kicks really hard, I grab my belly. "Ow!" I yell, covering my mouth, noticing I yelled to loud.
-
Carl's eyes open. "What is it?" He asks me.
-
"I can't get comfortable. The baby keeps kicking really hard. My stomach is hurting really bad." I say, looking at him.
-
He sits up, putting his hand on my belly, rubbing it. Another pain comes. I grab onto the blanket and clench it, really hard. Carl grabs my hand, letting me squeeze his hand. I hold back a yell. It finally goes away about 2 minutes later.
-
"Do you think the baby is coming?" He asks me, with a worried look in his eyes.
-
"I mean, maybe.. But I'm only 7 months. It would be premature." I tell him.
-
"I'll go get everyone." He tells me, kissing my head and climbing over me, getting up.
-
"Everyone?" I ask.
-
"Yeah, Im not sure who could help. Everyone can." He tells me.
-
I nod, watching him leave. I could hear Carl quietly waking everyone up. I sit there, waiting. They start coming into my cell. Carl comes back and sits beside me.
-
"So, what's going on?" Carol asks me, coming to my side.
-
"The baby is kicking really, really bad, I can't get comfortable, and my stomach is hurting really bad." I tell her.
-
"Okay, well." She starts. "Let me check you." She tells me.
-
"Okay." I nod.
-
"Here, lay back." Carol tells me.
-
I lay back. Everyone is still in my cell, watching.
I take my flannel off for her. She lifts my tank top up half way, stopping at my breasts. She feels around my belly. Another huge pain comes. "Carol, Carol!" I yell. I hurry to sit up, before the pain gets unbearable.
-
"What? What?" She asks me, moving back a little bit.
-
I take a deep breath, as the pain gets to the max.
-
"I don't know, what she is having happen, but she keeps on having really, really bad pains." Carl tells Carol.
-
I squeeze Carl's hand, trying not to scream. "I-I. Can't do it." I say.
-
"Just breath. It will pass." Michonne says from behind Carol.
-
The pain gets worse. A scream forces it's way out. I scream, and I try to cover my mouth. The pain goes away about 5 minutes later. I take multiple breaths. Daryl and Rick come over, while Carol, Michonne and Beth go get something's that might help me.
-
"It'll be okay." Rick tells me, lightly smiling.
-
"I still haven't thought of a name yet. Ill think of one very soon though." He tells me and smiles.
-
I smile at them. "Thank you guys so much." I say. "I love you both." I say.
-
"I love you too." They both say at the same time.
-
I lightly smile again. Carl hold my hand. "You doing okay right now?" He asks me.
-
I nod. "Yeah, right now." I say, and I kiss his cheek. Daryl and Rick go to the corner of the room as the three women come back in.
-
"Okay. I need you to lay on the ground." Carol tells me. Michonne is laying out two towels for me to lay onto. I slowly get up. "First, take your jeans off." She tells me.
-
I nod and take my jeans off. "Do you want them in here?" Michonne asks me.
I shake my head no. Rick and Daryl leave.
-
"Beth, you don't need to see this." Carol tells her. She nods and quietly leaves.
-
"Do you want me to leave?" Carl asks me, standing up, beside me. "No. Please don't." I tell him. He nods. "I won't then." He tells me.
-
Another huge pain comes. "Carol!" I yell. She helps me into the floor. The pain passes a little quicker this time. "Spread your legs." She tells me. I spread my legs. "I know this is weird for you, Taylor." She tells me. "But, I have to. Okay?" She tells me.
-
I nod. "Yeah, okay." I reply. Carl says next to me, holding my hand.
