I don't own glee.
May 26, 1993
Elizabeth Hummel sat at the kitchen table staring down at her thirty- three week sonogram pictures. He eyes were red and swollen from crying. She absent mindly rubbed her swollen belly. She had feelings that her baby was small but not losing weight. She didn't want to lose the baby because she and Burt had been trying for three years to have a baby and finally they found out the good news. She smiled as she felt a little thump on her hand. She heard the door open. She whipped her tears from her face.
"Honey I'm home!" she heard her husband calling form the door. She heard his keys drop in the bowl.
"I'm in here sweetheart" Elizabeth called. Burt Hummel walked into the kitchen form a long hard day's work. He had just started his new business. He owned a tire shop called Hummel's tire and lube even though the business was just starting out, it was a success. Elizabeth laughed when she saw her husband all dirty with oil stains on his shirt.
"What?" Burt smiled. He walked over to Elizabeth.
"I just have to get used to you being all dirty now. You look so different but in a good way." She replied while still laughing. He bent down to kiss her. "No honey go shower then kiss" Burt didn't care all he knew was he wanted to kiss his wife. He quickly went over to the sink and washed his hands and face. Elizabeth got up slowly form her chair. She walked over to the sink. Burt bit his lip as he dried his hands. He knew Elizabeth was depressed. He walked up to his beautiful wife and kissed her. He swayed her hips with his hands. He took one of his hands and ran it though he long auburn hair.
"I love you" he whispered softly in her ear. She smiled as she started to cry. "I know you've been upset about the baby being small but he will be just fine I know it. With you as his mom, I have no doubt he will be the happiest child in the universe" he placed his hand on her swollen belly. "You know I think the baby kicks more when you sing to him" Elizabeth smiled happily. She began to sing:
You are my sunshine,
my only sunshine.
You make me happy,
when skies are gray.
You'll never know dear,
how much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away.
Both she and Burt had tears in their eyes. They both felt thumping.
"He loves it when you sing" Burt said. "You know he kicks his hardest when there is music you know" Elizabeth smiled.
"I know. He is always happy around music"
"Hey maybe he will be a football player!" Burt suggested. Elizabeth laughed and just shook her head. She looked out the window and saw the backyard. She saw the sunflowers she planted last spring.
"Honey I think I am going to get some fresh air" Elizabeth suggested. She slowly walked over to the back door. Burt quickly and handed her a pink sweater.
"Here honey take this."
"Honey its May I don't think I will get cold that quickly." She said. She looked up at Burt's eyes. "Oh alright!" he smiled.
"I will be in hearing distance so if you need anything just holler okay? Be careful if you are going to sit on that swing because the rope is starting to rot." Elizabeth nodded. She slowly walked down the steps and walked over to a swing and sat down. She rubbed her belly and closed her eyes. She could feel her little baby moving swiftly.
"Oh you must like to dance!" she said. "And I just know you will want to be around music twenty four- seven won't you" the baby kept moving nonstop. "You want to hear momma sing?" she asked. She felt a thump. She knew that was a yes. So she began:
If I should stay,
I would only be in your way.
So I'll go, but I know
I'll think of you every step of the way.
And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
You, my darling you. Hmm.
Bittersweet memories
that is all I'm taking with me.
So, goodbye. Please, don't cry.
We both know I'm not what you, you need.
And I will always love you.
I will always love you.
The wind started to blow very fast. Elizabeth put on the sweater. She tried to get up but the rope gave out. The swing broke and Elizabeth fell to the ground. She sat there for a few moments. She held her belly.
"Oh baby I am so sorry" she said to her baby "oh Kurt I am so sorry baby. I-"she was cut off by piecing pain in her back and belly. She felt water gush gown her legs. "No….no….. It's too early…." She started to sob. She tried to get up but she could the pain was to strong.
"BURT!" she screamed at the top of her lungs "BURT!" she started to sob more. Her baby was coming early too early.
