Hey everyone! Got more inspiration for this chapter so I'm posting another one, and I'll probably post another by the end of the day. Just enjoy how inspired I am for this story!
"Emily Fields?" the voice woke Emily from her sleep. She looked up and saw one of the detectives from earlier. "Yes?" she asked, trying to clear her vision. "Detective?" she questioned as she recognized the man from earlier.
"Yes miss. We wanted to let you know your alibi checked out. There was blood found on the front of your car, but security footage shows a male figure placing the evidence there. We are hoping you'll be able to recognize him," he explained. By now Maya had woken up and was aware of the situation.
"Why would anyone try to frame her?" she asked. Emily looked down at Maya, her not aware she was awake until then. "I don't know babe, but this footage might shed some light on things," she answered, placing a light kiss to Maya's stomach. "OK," she agreed, and the detective placed a laptop on the bed for them to watch.
Emily grasped Maya's hand gently as the video played, and at first it was impossible to see the person's face, for they were turned opposite the camera, but when they turned around they gasped. "You know him?" the detective asked. Both girls nodded and looked at each other, then back to the detective. They didn't need much memory to know that face. "Ben Coogan."
Four months later
"Maya? Are you awake love?" Emily's voice echoed through the hallways. Maya blinked open her eyes and smiled as she recognized the voice. Yeah, in here," she called from the living room. The swimmer grinned as she entered the room and walked over to her now heavily pregnant girlfriend.
She kissed her chastely on the lips and then lovingly on her stomach. "Hi sweetie," she whispered to the unborn child. The doctor had been wrong about their memories- they had not regained everything, even with the efforts of their friends and family, as well as the absence of people they called nothing more than distractions, AKA Paige, Jenna, Ben, and Samara.
Despite that, they had started over again, and were happy they did. For some reason, after the accident with Ben neither girl had regained any memory, but they didn't give up hope of remembering eventually. However, right now their focus was the tiny person growing inside Maya. They wanted to wait and find out the gender when the baby was born, which was what they had originally planned before the car crash. They hoped that this method would somehow spark something.
"How are my two favorite people doing?" Emily chuckled, cuddling up beside Maya and kissing her cheek softly. "We're doing just fine, thank you for asking," the darker skinned girl answered, resting her head on Emily's shoulder. "Any movement lately?" she questioned. Maya grinned and nodded. "Tons. I swear if I didn't know better this kid was getting ready to be born now," she joked, but then all of a sudden, as if to support her words, a sharp kick in Maya's right side caused her to gasp in pain and grab at her stomach.
"Maya! Baby hey, shh clam down its OK," Emily soothed the increasingly panicking girl. "Emily... I... I can't... I can't breathe... I... Help..." Maya choked on her words and Emily grasped her hand tightly. "It's alright, don't say anymore, focus on breathing, I'm gonna get help, just stay calm," Emily didn't believe a word of what she said, knowing it was probably impossible for the shorter girl to stay anything but panicked, but she knew she had to try.
She quickly dialed 911 as well as the girls and both their parents. Sirens were heard minutes later, followed by the screeching of sirens, followed by worried shouts as dozens of people entered the house. Paramedics rushed Maya to the hospital and someone, Emily wasn't sure who, held her back as she tried to move. Eventually the shock got to her and she broke down in tears, sobs wracking through her body. "Shh, Em its OK, Maya's a fighter, I promise she'll be alright," Emily heard only the words, not the voice, and it was impossible to tell who had said what, but someone led her to a car and drove her to the hospital.
Everything seemed too slow and too fast. The world was moving too slow, but everything went by in a blur. Everyone was walking too slow, but it seemed like no one stayed still. Minutes were dragging on for hours, and hours lasted only seconds. The only thing that the raven haired swimmer could see was Maya. Her beautiful girlfriend lying on an operating table as surgeons worked furiously on her. Emily looked at the clock beside the window- 4:30.
The sun blinded her vision and she looked back at the operating table. She looked up again a minute later, already forgetting the time. 2:17. Wait... was she seeing things? Was the clock running backwards? No one seemed to have moved, but then she realized that the sun had drowned in a sea of dark blue covered in small lights. It was 2:17- in the morning.
"Emily?" Was Emily imagining things? She didn't see anyone. The hallway was abandoned and empty. "Emily." Now she was sure she heard something. "Who's there?" she tried to call, but no sound exited her mouth. "Emily, wake up." Suddenly Emily's eyes flew open, only to snap shut again at the sudden brightness.
"Emily, sweetie, hey, wake up Hun," she recognized the voice- it was the voice of a particular blonde. "Hanna?" she asked, slowly allowing her eyes to flutter open. She was smiling. Smiling. That meant something good had happened- wait, where was she again? "What... Where..." then it hit her- Maya, the baby, the operation.
She jumped up. "Where is she?" she asked. Hanna chuckled. "She's in her room doing great. Oh, and by the way, congratulations," she chuckled. "What? On what?" she asked. Hanna grinned. "On being a mom."
"Just remember, she's a little out of it, so she might be a little slow, but it should wear off soon and she's fine otherwise," the doctor instructed. Emily nodded in understanding. "So... The baby... boy or girl?" Emily asked. "You'll just have to wait and see," Aria chuckled.
"No one has been inside, but we all know," Spencer grinned. Her three friends snickered as Emily walked inside. "Hey baby," Maya's voice was soft and raspy, but it was hers, and Emily couldn't have been more relieved. She hugged her as tightly as she dared. "You scared me," the swimmer whispered.
"I know, I'm sorry," Maya replied in the same quiet but heartfelt tone. "Ahh, finally these little guys can meet their moms properly, and at the same time," a doctors voice startled Emily, but as she grinned and turned around, a thought came to her.
"Wait... Guys?" she questioned. Then she froze, realizing why everyone had been so excited about the gender. Staring her in the face was a little baby boy that couldn't have weighed more than three pounds- and beside him was an identical baby girl.
OMG twins! Lol hope that wasn't expected. Anyways, bad news guys- sadly, more tragic Emaya drama is going to occur in the next chapter. The babies are fine though, they aren't the one to worry about... Or are they? Guess you have to wait until next time. Kisses- A
