Chapter fourteen: Bart Is A Part Of Our Family Too Now

Riley POV - hurry up Riley!

Can't you put the blue lights and sound on Ethan, this baby is two whole fucking months early, he/she could die!

"I am sorry Riley, you know i can't" - then i (Ethan) saw the face of my best friend, worried, anxious and distressed. "Fine, just this once" Ethan sighed.

Lucky for them nobody saw and they got to the hospital twice as fast as they would have done, driving the normal speed limit. ANNE MINNIVER i screamed at the woman. "Ok sir, if you would please calm down" was the response i got, calm down. Calm down my baby was going to be born two whole fucking months earlier than expected. That isn't normal.

"I'm sorry sir there is no one here under that name" that was her second response.

Try Mitzeee then, with three e's. I snapped back wondering why the woman didn't know this already. I cursed myself for saying ANNE why should i be so stupid, wasting precious time.

"Ah yes sir if you go down the hall and take a left and then a right" thanks i mumbled trying to be polite.

"If it's alright with you dude i think i am gonna bop off now?"

No, i mean please stay, you're my best friend i need you, you can help me stay calm and all that shit.

"Totes dude, if you need me i am here for you"

Incoming call ... Doug

You take it Ethan i can't talk right now.

Doug it is Ethan, shut up and listen not now Doug Riley is at the hospital trying to find Mitzeee, she's having the baby, yes now you idiot. Bye.

Jasmine, Bart where is Mitzeee?

"The doctor took her off to have a caesarean"

3 hours later

Guys you can come in now.

In came Jasmine, Ethan, Bart and Seth who had rushed to the hospital as soon as he found out.

Meet your little niece, Heidi.

Jasmine POV - love her!

There she was, so small and tiny all hooked up to machinery struggling to breathe on her own. But still, she was perfect in every way. She had Mitzeee's eyes and riley's nose and ears. Poor child, she will have a pea head, just like her dad.

"Jasmine" Mitzeee called out to me

Yer i called back, "Can you grab Bart and Ethan and get over here please. Oh and get Nancy on the phone!"

Of course i can. That was my reply. Bart, Ethan. Mitzeee wants to see us. Just then Nancy and Darren burst in carrying flowers and balloons.

"Ah Nancy you are here finally come here and give us a hug" Mitzeee sat up slowly and reached out to Nancy.

"RIGHT, now you four are all here could the rest of you leave please? Riley and I have something we would like to ask you all. Babes you wanna tell em or should i ?"

"You can do it babe."

"Well the thing is" Mitzeee began, she began to tear up so Riley carried on instead, "We would like you four to be Heidi's godparents, if you would. Obviously we feel bad about not asking Seth, but Bart is a part of our family too now and well we personally think Jasmine will be a great role model for Heidi and you 2 are our best friends and we want you to be a part of our lives more than ever now, plus it means you get to help out more!"

Riley. I exclaimed, i am totally choked up and don't know what to say except yes and thank you so much.

After the news, Bart and i made the decision to go back to the pub and think about what Mitzeee and Riley had asked us. And to have some alone time together, what it is New Years Day after all and we missed midnight and welcoming in the New Year, so we would just have to make do with 2am instead. Bart and i arrived back from the hospital and sprinted up the stairs. Bart went and sat down on the sofa, as usual, while i got us some drinks, champagne as it was News Years. As soon as i had rested the glasses down on to the table Bart pull me down on the sofa next to him and began to unbutton my jeans. When the door bell went.

Ding dong

"Ignore it" Bart whispered "For now it's just me and you." He was so close to my ear it tickled and i began to laugh, as did he. He carried on through the laughter lift my top over my head and throwing it across the room.

Knock Knock

The person was really hammering at the door now and shouting at us. "Open this door or i swear to god i will break it down myself, i know you're in there with some girl!"

The cheek of it – some girl, i was his girlfriend!

"You go Jas" Bart called out quietly as he ran to hide behind the door. What a coward, i thought to myself.

Alright, Alright i am coming i said as i unlocked the door. It swung up and in front of me stood a girl, about my age with long dark brown hair and green eyes.

"Oh, so who are you then?" she asked me, there was a look of utter disgust on her face. "His little bit on the side? I want to see him, where is he?"

Bart is over there, i sighed pointing at the door. I was hurt, no completely devastated that Bart had been cheating on me, i would get the details from him later.

"What are you talking about, who is Bart?" that was the girl's reply. I breathed a deep sigh of relief; i can't believe i had thought Bart would have cheated on me. My happiness was short lived though. "Carl, is who i came to see, where is he?"

Who are you? I asked the girl, i had these conversations with so many women over the past years we all had, all Carl's affairs came knocking sooner or later. Demanding something or other. "i'm his girlfriend, Elise, who are you?"

I can't describe the look that came over my face, shock, disgust, concern and anger, maybe a mixture of all three. Dad moaned about me dating Bart, somebody my own age, when he was now dating somebody the same age as he puts it, his little baby girl!

His daughter Jasmine, and i am afraid i has some terrible news, you may want to sit down, i informed her slowly moving her towards the sofa and placing her on it. You obviously haven't heard and i am sorry to have to tell you this but Carl is dead. He committed suicide on Christmas Eve.

Her face went white and as she stood up, she collapsed. Once she came back around, she said "I got a text him but i thought that it meant he was seeing another woman. So i came over to look for him."

Well sorry, he's dead, the funeral is on Monday. If you want to come, be back here Monday at 9 am.

"You don't seem very sad" was her next response, this came with a puzzled look on her face. My reply was this.

Yer well the bastard deserved it, if you knew what he was like, i am sure you will feel the same way i do. Remember 9am Monday the 2nd, now if you would be as kind as to... i gestured towards the door.

Where were we, i walked over to Bart and wrapped my legs around his waist, he moved his arm across the table, knocking its contents to the floor in the process and he then laid me on the top of the table.
