That night was amazing, I had hoped the next few weeks would continue that way but I was wrong. I awoke to sunlight and pain in my stomach. I jumped up and clutched my stomach. Francis jerked up,
"Mary, what's wrong?" he asked.
With that I gasped and felt a rush a blood between my legs.
"Not again," I screamed. "Not again"
Francis ran to the door and screamed for the guards to get a midwife and doctor. He then ran back to me. I began to cry and gasp in pain. The doctor was the first to arrive and he began a exam after asking.
Francis was still holding my hand when the doctor finally started to talk "the child is not going to make it, you have lost too much blood. I'm sorry." he said. I began to cry, and Francis thanked him for coming. He started to hold me.
Catherine had heard the hustle and bustle and arrived to see me, we hadn't told anyone yet but somehow, she knew.
"Mary, I'm so sorry. I know how much pain you must be in. here, drink this. Its herbs from Bash." Catherine said as she put the herbs in some tea. She left while Francis still held me. I never held him so tight.
"Francis, I want to see Anne and James, please bring them to me."
"I don't want to leave you." He said as Bash came into the room.
"Bash, what are doing here, I haven't seen you in ages." Francis smiled and stuck out one of his hands to bash while the other.
" I know Francis that you don't believe in the power to see the future but I believe I have seen yours and Mary's." Bash said.
"Tell me." I said still somewhat sobbing.
"You will have more children, and James will be one of the greatest rulers to ever live, but there will be a burden on your family. Anne will save it. I'm not sure how, but that is what I know." Bash said and bowed as he left the room.
Francis and I were excited to know that we will have more children but also wondered what the burden will be on our family. But not for to long as our paige told us that Elizabeth had arrived in France.
