Chapter 12

The trio walked together going into stores to look. Madison walked into a bookstore, looking for a present for Eli's father. That's when she heard someone yell for help in the next isle over. Madison cautiously walked over to see a young girl looking down at her stomach while lying in a pool of blood.

"Are you alight dear?" Madison asked kneeling down beside the girl. The girl looked up with scared emerald eyes.

"Please help me. Something's wrong with my baby." Madison's eyes grew wide by whom the girl was.

"Sakura? Oh my god! I'll get you help try not to move." Madison said wiping Sakura's hair out of her face.

"Hurry Madison. Please!" Sakura cried feeling another stab of pain. Moments later Madison returned and quickly grasped Sakura's hand.

"They're calling 911. Hang on Sakura!" Sakura looked at Madison and squeezed hr hand back.

"I'm sorry Madison, for everything. You're the best friend anyone could ever had." Madison wiped back Sakura's hair again and sniffed back her tears.

"Its ok Sakura, we'll talk about it later. Save your energy." Sakura quickly shacked her head.

"Do something or me Maddy. I need you to tell Li that this is his baby. That I love him and I always have. Will you do that for me Maddy?" Madison stared at her and let the tears fall. It was Li's baby.

"Hang on Sakura, I'll go get him now. Ok?" Sakura quickly nodded and closed her eyes, tears still continuing to fall. Madison ran out of the store and found Eli and Li sitting by the fountain talking. Madison quickly ran up to them and grabbed Li's hand.

"Come on Li, we need to get in that shop now!" Madison yanked on his hand almost knocking Li over in his chair.

"Madison what's going..."But before he could continue they heard a scream come from the store.

"No...Sakura!" Madison yelled before letting go of Li's hand and running back into the store. Li and Eli followed close behind. When Madison got there, she saw the Emergency Medical Technicians gathered around Sakura. They had a towel between her legs trying to get the bleeding to stop.

"Don't let my baby die... please." Li heard someone say. When he pushed people out of the way to where he could see the crying girl. That's when Madison grabbed his arm and yanked him back to where they were out of the crowed.

"Who is that Madison? Who's having problems with their baby?" Madison looked back towards the crowed and then back at Li.

"Its Sakura. She's having problems. That's why I wanted you to come with me. She wanted to tell you something." Madison said holding her friend Li's hand.

"What? What did she want to tell me?" Li demanded trying to fine sight of Sakura.

"Its yours. The baby is yours. She wanted you to know that. She also wanted to you know that she loves you." Li quickly dropped Madison's hand and ran back towards the crowd. Pushing his way through he got as far as to where an Emergency Medical Technician was holding back the crowd.

"Get back sir." The man said. Li tried pushing through but ended up yelling,

"I'm the father!"
