(A/N: And, chapter two!)
Thirty-three and a half weeks later…
Fang POV
Max, the Flock, and I were all sitting in the living room of Anne's house, watching some weird show. 'Nitro Circus', I think. I was getting a little confused, though; all of the guys looked the same. Jolene reminded me so much of an older, human Max that it made me grin.
Suddenly, Max grabbed her stomach and made a strangled shout-like noise. We all looked at her in panic as she crumpled to the floor, her breathing hard. She cried out, holding her stomach as tears flowed slowly down her cheeks.
"Anne! Anne, get down here!" I screamed, picking Max up and setting her on the couch. Anne ran down the stairs faster than I thought humanly possible and instantly went to Max.
"Max, Max, honey, I need you to calm down, okay? Tell me, have you had pain in your belly today?" Anne asked in a very professional way. Max nodded and cried out again. "Oh, God…Uh, Max, have you had sex?" When Max nodded again, recognition came into Anne's eyes. "How long ago? Come on, Max, I need this information."
"Like…Thirty something weeks? I don't know!" she cried. Anne sat in shock for only a few seconds before grabbing the phone and dialing 911.
"Yes, uh, my adoptive daughter is pregnant and she's just gone into labor and she didn't even know she was pregnant. I need an ambulance now, her water just broke."
Sure enough, a wet spot started to appear on Max's jeans and I stood in shock, knowing it was my baby. I took her virginity and now she was having my child…. Wow.
"Okay, the address is 865 Michael's Circle…Thank you so much. Okay, do you want to speak with her? I…I don't know what to do! I lost my baby, I have no idea what I'm doing." Anne suddenly turned frantic and gave the phone to Max.
I watched my girlfriend take the phone before dropping it and crying out again. I grabbed the phone, "Hi, uh, I'm the dad…Uh, what do we do until the ambulance gets here?" She told me to remove Max's clothes waist down, so I had Anne and Iggy do it while I ran and got towels.
"Okay, I got the towels. Wait, that's the ambulance," I said, looking out the front bay window as I pressed the towels between Max's legs. Gazzy, Angel, and Nudge were sitting away from us, their eyes wide and shocked. They couldn't see anything from where Anne had put them, which was good.
I opened up the door for the paramedics and hung up with the 911 operator, watching as two men lifted Max onto the gurney and a woman tried to comfort her. They said only one other person could ride in the ambulance, but Anne was already pushing me forward with her keys and shoes in her hands. "Go, Nick, you need to be with her."
"Fang! Fang, please don't leave me!" Max was shouting, reaching for me. I took her hand and followed the paramedics to the ambulance, crouching down inside so that I could still hold Max's hand and pet her hair while we rocketed down the highway, sirens wailing.
"I'm so sorry I did this to you, Max," I whispered in her ear. She shook her head as the woman hooked her up to some machines and fluids.
"Baby, it's okay…I want your baby…" she whispered before crying out, another contraction tearing through her. I cringed and held her hand tighter, kissing her forehead and trying to comfort her.
"Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup. They slither while they pass, they slip away, across the universe…Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind. Possessing and caressing me…Jai guru de va, om…" I sang to her. I felt her muscles start to relax a little as we pulled into the parking lot at the hospital.
"Young female, around sixteen, about thirty weeks pregnant, did not know, no prenatal care, the baby's father is with her, coming in now," the driver said into a little radio. Four doctors and six nurses immediately came out the door as they started to unload Max.
"Sir, I'll need you to put these scrubs on and Leslie here will take you into the delivery room," a male nurse said, handing me blue scrubs and shoe covers. I nodded and the other female nurse, Leslie, led me to the nearest bathroom and waited while I changed.
Who would've ever thought?
