A/N: Okay so this I wrote, and it is so super sad and it was in the plans so don't think that it had anything to do with the reviews... It just was how this story began to play out on it's own. enjoy!- S.K.
Tragic
He was born so early 27 weeks and 4 days. She was almost seven months pregnant. It was my fault. I didn't know this was bothering her so much. I just knew that if I didn't release the anger it would do something to Amber.
We hadn't even gotten around to choosing a name for him. But then, I think Tori would have liked to let Andre be a part of that. I was still pissed, but he was the baby's father and I was going to make for damn sure he was involved. I watched the both of them through the window as they watched over him. I wanted to be there for him too, but first I wanted to talk to dear old dad. He looked back at me and I signaled for him to come with me. Just then, the Vital records person came up to me. "Ms. West, will you be acting as the other parent?"
I looked at her. "I am a third parent… his father is right there." I said as Andre came out of the NICU.
"Are you sure?" He asked.
"He's your son. I can't give her one of those." I said as the Vital records person watched him sign the birth certificate. Then she went into the room for Tori to sign. "That was really cruddy Andre."
"Jade," He said and we started to walk. "you know I love her, always have. But I have never put pressure on her for anything more. She was persistent and I turned her down all the time. But she got me drunk and she began to work her magic, and I just…"
"Spare me the details. I was hoping you didn't remember." I said. "You were supposed to be my friend."
"I will always be your friend. Do you know how many times they wanted to hire someone to pose as her man when we first started? I would have rather it be me so I always did it. Celebrity break ups are a big thing." She had never told me that. I looked at Andre and stopped walking at the entrance of the hospital. "She never even knew." He said as if he had read my mind.
"I guess… we have to be co-parents now." I said looking down at my shoes.
He nodded, then he smiled. "I have a son."
I smiled at him. "We should give him a name you know."
"We'll come up with it together." He said. I reached out to him and hugged him. It had been a while. Since we were teenagers I think.
"I have to go check on my girls," I said finally letting go of him I stepped backward and missed the curb and began to fall backward. He caught me and kind of tossed me back on to the curb because he lost his footing and he was about to hit the floor but a car careened wildly toward the emergency entrance and hit him. "ANDRE!" I screamed.
He was dead instantly. It had hit him in the head directly. I had been splattered with his blood at impact. I couldn't think. Some nurses took me inside to check me from shock. I screamed for my friend once I snapped out of it. To think this was something I looked at in movies as a form of amusement. This was not funny.
Once they were satisfied that I was not in danger of stroking out, the nurses let me go and I was able to go to Tori's little private corner of the hospital in shock. What was I supposed to tell her? I didn't have to say anything. She was staring at the TV, looking at her twitter feeds and Slap updates she had been flooded with condolences. "He was all I could remember." She said with a whisper.
I nodded. "He saved my life, I was falling and he caught me but he slipped and that IDIOT." I shouted the last because I couldn't keep from crying. I had just gotten my friend back and that… thing took him away from me. Tori and I held each other for hours crying for our lost friend.
