"I'm scared Drake...I'm only 17 & I'm giving birth to a baby." Hanna whispered to Drake.
"I'm scared too...I'm only 17...& I'm gonna be a father."
He was also scared for Hanna, she was in a lot of pain.
"I'm sorry I did this to you."
Hanna smiled. "It's ok. If I would have to go through this with anyone I'm glad its you...I love you."
Drake smiled back at her. "I love you too."
Hanna could still see worry in his eyes so she touched his cheek & whispered."We'll be fine Drake. As long as we're in this together we'll be fine. I promise."
"& I promise that I'll always be here for you...I'll be with you every step of the way." Drake whispered.
Hanna was about to say something else but she cried out in pain instead.
"She's ready!" yelled one of the doctors.
Somewhere in middle of birth Hanna just made this noise, then she just stopped breathing.
"Hanna!" Drake cried, shaking her hand over & over.
Tears fell from his eyes. He looked at the doctors, who were worried & trying to figure out what to do.
"What's wrong with Hanna?"
Two of the doctors dragged Drake out to the hallway. They looked at him sadly.
"I'm sorry but...Hanna died." Said one of them.
"Some girls die during birth." Said the other.
"Wh-what?...Shes-shes died?...She can't be died, shes only 17!"
"I'm sorry sir, but she is." Said one of the doctors.
"But their in there trying to save your unborn daughter." Said the other in a more hopeful tone.
Drake just turned around, & walked away. He went in the waiting room where his family was at.
Everyone stood up, looking at Drake with concern, as he came in with tears.
"Drake- Honey...What's wrong?" Audrey asked.
"Hanna...she...she...she died." Drake said quietly, so quiet you could barely here him.
"Oh honey!" Audrey cried.
She ran over to him, hugged him tightly, & let him cry.
When he calmed down she asked. "What about the baby?"
"Their in there trying to save it." Drake answered before he got out of his mothers grip, & went outside the waiting room.
He sat right by the door to the waiting room. He heard the door open, then close. he looked up to see Josh looking down at him with worry & sympathy. Josh sat down by him. They sat there in silence until Drake started to brake into more tears.
"I loved her Josh...I really did...She wasn't like all the other girls I dated...She actually meant something to me...She was the world to me...She's the one I wanted to spend the rest of my life with...&-& I thought having this baby was the start of are life together...b-but instead it's the end...Why? Why did she have to die?"
Josh got tears of his own. He pulled Drake into a comforting hug.
"That's life Drake...Everyone dies...Everyone has their time."
"That's not fair!" Drake cried.
"I'm sorry...But that's the way it is...Whether its fair or not."
They stopped hugging when they heard a cough. It was one of the doctors.
"We saved your daughter. "
Drake wiped away his tears & gave a small smile. At least he didn't lose both of them.
"Can I see her?"
"Of course." The doctor said.
The doctor took both Drake & Josh to the room where they kept all the babies. He went over to a specific one, picked her up, & handed her to Drake.
"She's beautiful." Josh said as he looked at her over Drake's shoulder.
"Yeah she is." Drake said softly, his eyes not leaving his baby girl in his hands.
"So what will be her name?" The doctor asked.
"Kamili Rose Parker." Drake answered. That's the name Hanna had said she wanted their daughter to have, so that's going to be her name.
The doctor wrote that down on the paper, then asked. "Would you like to have a couple minutes alone with Kamili?"
Drake nodded.
"Ok."
The Doctor & Josh left the room.
"I'm sorry about your mother...I'm sorry that you never got a chance to meet her..." Drake paused.
"She was a great girl...& I loved her very much..."
Drake kissed Kamili softly on her forehead. "I love you so much...I promise I'll be the best father that I can be...I'll never let you go."
He pulled her up to his chest softly, so he could hug her.
Now that Hanna was gone, Kamili was his world, she was his everything.
