Summery: Zero lost their fist child during delivery. Now Kaname and Zero are left to pick up the pieces. What troubles lay ahead for them?
Title: Second Chances - Prolog
He couldn't believe this was happening. Just hours ago, he was excited. Zero had gone into labor, was rushed to the hospital when the contractions where every 5 min, and when the contractions where none stop, Zero started to push. He was going to be a father finally. They had waited a long time for this moment, what seemed like forever. At some point during the delivery of their child, the baby got stuck in the birth canal, and the child quickly went into fetal distress. A nurse had to quickly escort Kaname out of the room since they had to perform an emergency cesarean on Zero to save the child. By the time they had the child, his heart had stopped beating. Despite all attempts to resuscitate, the Kuran babe never took his first breath. All of this within the last 24 hours. They had gone from parents expecting excitedly to parents of a still born and in mourning.
Now he sits in the chair next to Zero's bed. As it turned out, Zero almost died of blood loss and now he lays there on the bed with tubes connected to him. One of those tubes was connected to the both of them, and it's the tube that is feeding his pureblood to him. Zero still has yet to wake up, and the fact that he hasn't is concerning him. He just sits there numb, his body unsure of what to feel; either that or not willing to feel yet.
The only thing his mind is able to see are the dreams and hopes he had for his child are now smashed on the floor in a billion broken pieces. He hasn't looked at Zero since he stepped into the room, his eyes unwilling to lift.
For the next week, Kaname sat in that chair in Zero's room, willing him to wake up, but things remain unchanged. How could things go so badly so quickly? A week ago, they were expecting their child; and now the baby was dead and Zero was in a comatose state. His family was falling apart.
A couple of days prior, he started to feel again. Anguish, so much unimaginable pain was flowing freely through him. There was also anger and bitterness; so much so that he couldn't keep it under control as much as he wanted. He was feeling so much and he hadn't slept well this past week that he couldn't keep his eyes open. Sleep quickly took him.
When he next opened his eyes, he looked up at Zero and paused. He blinked his eyes, blinked again, and blinked a third time before he could say anything. "Zero?" was all he could manage to say. Zero turned his head slightly to look at him. In a raspy, barely audible, gravely voice, Zero's says "Our baby… is g…g…" he couldn't finish it. "Gone" Kaname supplied in a tone that wasn't too pleasant or loving.
TBC:
A/N: I am sorry for posting a very short prolog. I came up with this idea that I know too many people go through. The loss of a child is very disturbing, and I'm sorry if this story brings up bad memories or feelings if you know of a child that died way too early like I have. I am posting this story to find out if anyone is interested in seeing it continue. If so, I will.
Forewarning: There may be a scene later in the chapters that may be too disturbing for some of you. There may be smut. If there will be, I will change the rating to M from T.
