Chapter Fifty-Six

…
Cat and Beck were laughing along with their friends at their Junior Year Prome that Tori created because she wanted a "Prom" even though they made her name it a Prome. The decorations were amazing; as they should be, since Tori, her friends, and a few other people stayed up till 2am decorating this lunch area. Beck couldn't help, but admire his girlfriend's beautiful dress. She had a dress that in the back part went to her ankles, but it gradually rose towards the front above her knees. It was a mix of hot pink and peach, with ruffles everywhere. One shoulder strap that was actually a flower shape. She had a large peach colored rose in her hair to pull it back to one side. He was dressed in a pure white tux, but his bow tie was hot pink. Cat's corsage matched her flower in her hair. People thought they were perfectly matched. He agreed.
"Ugh, it's almost midnight." Tori groaned. "I should announce the King and Queen and then tell everyone to go home." They gang agreed and Tori ran to the stage and up to the microphone. "Hi, everyone! You guys having a good time?" Everyone cheered. "Great! Okay, now I'm going to announce this year's Prome King and Queen! And for King is: Beck Oliver!" Andre took the crown and put it on top of Beck's head. "For Queen is: Cat Valentine!" Everyone cheered for the two as Jade put the petite, but shiny crown on Cat's head. "Congrats, guys! Okay, one song left, so let's let the Kign and Queen have their dance!"
After their dance, Beck and Cat helped everyone clean up. It was 2am by the time they were done and Cat was lightheaded. "Beck, I'm so sleepy." She moaned.
Beck frowned, seeing she really was tired and looking a bit pale. "Alright, babygirl. We're leaving." After saying goodbye to their friends, Beck led Cat to the car and they took off. Cat immediately leaned against his arm and fell asleep. Beck kissed her head and sighed with happiness. Sure, it was late and he was tired, but dang, did he have the best time of his life with the girl he adored. She sure looked beautiful as well. She looked like a princess with the crown on her head too.
They pulled up to her house and he walked her up to the door. She turned to him. "Thanks for such a great night, Beck. It was the best."
"I agree." He leaned down and pecked her lips. "I love you, my Queen."
Cat giggled and kissed his cheek. "I love you, my King." With that said, she opened her door and gave him a small wave before shutting it behind her and locking it. He went back to his car after hearing the lock, to make sure she was safe. Her parents were out of town again. He hated her being alone, but he couldn't control what the family did.
He pulled out of the driveway, after a few minutes, almost to his house where he was excited to get to his RV, fall asleep on his bed, and dream of his favorite Kitten. He was exhausted and wanted to see her face again to comfort him. He always did in his dreams.
Ring…ring…
Cat calling…
Beck's heart skipped a beat. Something had to be wrong. He just left there 2 minutes ago. "Cat, what's up?"
"Beck, get back over here! Something's wrong with Sleepy!"
Beck did an illegal U-turn and peeled down back to his girlfriend's house. "What's wrong with him?"
"I came to my room and he had blood everywhere on his bed and on the carpet! He's puking up blood, I just witnessed it! He won't get up and when I tried to pick him up, he yelped in pain! Oh, Beck, help him! Please!"
Beck was almost back at her house. "I'm almost there, Kitten. We're going to take him to the Pet Hospital. I'll make sure he's okay. I promise."
"Okay, we'll meet you downstairs." And she hung up.
Beck cursed out loud as he put his phone back in his pocket. Really? Really? A perfect night ruined. He prayed Sleepy would be okay. Cat would be absolutely destroyed if her baby puppy didn't make it. He drove into her driveway and rushed out, not bothering to turn the car off since they'd be leaving immediately anyways. Cat opened the door and held Sleepy in her arms, he was whimpering in pain. He was wrapped in his favorite bear blanket. His eyes weren't open, since they looked to be scrunched up from the pain.
"Beck, stop staring at him and get him to the hospital!" Cat screamed. She was still in her Prome dress with the crown on. He was sure that wasn't going to stop her though. Beck closed the door behind her and led her to his car, opening the door for her and helped her put her seatbelt on. He rushed to his side and peeled out of the driveway, speeding to the hospital for animals. Cat was sobbing. "Oh my god, Beck, I'm so scared!"
Beck gulped. "Don't be. Okay? Now, no more crying. Be strong for our baby boy, okay?"
Cat sniffled and nodded. "You're right. I need to calm down and not show how scared I am in front of Sleepy."
"That's my girl."
Cat held Sleepy close to her and nuzzled her cheek on his head. "Oh, my baby boy…Sleepy, please be okay. I love you so much. I love you just how I love your daddy." Beck had a small smile. "I have done everything possible for you. Now please…please stay with me. I need you, Sleepy. Without you with me at home, I'll have no one to cry to when my dad calls me ugly or fat." Beck winced at the names. "Sleepy, you've been there for me so much. I don't think I can make it at home without you." She let out a tiny sob when her Yorkshire Terrier whimpered loudly again. "I love you so much."
Beck almost went into tears at the amount of sadness that was in her voice. A minute later, he drove into a parking lot that was practically empty, except for a few cars. He undid his seatbelt and rushed to his girlfriend's side. He took Sleepy carefully from her arms and she undid her seatbelt and followed him inside. Cat went up to the front desk with Beck beside her. A lady, who looked exhausted, looked up. "Hi, can I help you?" The lady's eyes widened when she saw Cat in an orange, fluffy prom like dress, Beck in a tux, and a sickening looking puppy in his arms wrapped in a blanket that was in the shape of a bear. It was an odd sight for such a late time at night.
"My puppy." Cat said with tears. "I came home late from a dance at our school and found blood on his bed and around the carpet in my room. I tried to figure out where it came from when he suddenly puked up blood. I pick him up and he yelps in pain. He's been whimpering non-stop."
The lady immediately stood up. "Doctor! Doctor!"
A man in a white trench coat came out. The lady explained what Cat just said and the doctor's eyes widened. "Oh dear." He reached over the counter, taking Sleepy from Beck's arms. Sleepy yelped loudly in pain, making Cat squeaked in horror. "We'll do immediate surgery on him." And he left.
The woman at the desk looked to the devastated couple. "You can go home if you like and we'll call you when he's out of surgery."
Cat shook her head. "I'm not going anywhere until he's out."
Beck nodded. "Same here." Beck took Cat by the shoulders and gently led her to the waiting chairs. He sat her down, removing his tux jacket before sitting down, and she crawled into his lap to curl up to him. He held her close after draping his jacket over her and rocked her back and forth. He kissed her forehead. "Why don't you get some sleep?"
Cat shook her head. "I can't sleep. I'm so used to Sleepy being right next to me." She buried her face in the crook of Beck's neck. "I want to be in bed with him in my arms." She sobbed quietly, making Beck want to breakdown as well.
He couldn't help, but turn to God now.
It was all in His hands.

(Next to each other, Sleepy was the most important thing to Beck and Cat…the doctor predicts Sleepy won't make it through the night…can Cat's song and Beck's strength be enough to help keep the pup going?)
