Chapter 4

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters from princess diaries.

Joe- Well it looks as though our problems are solved. Our military forces have captured the enemy.

Clarisse- Excellent! Good lord those 6 ½ weeks have seemed like forever. (Sighing)

Joe- How has Mia been doing during all of this? (Curious)

Clarisse- She's been doing alright. Michael, Lily, and Jeremiah have been keeping her occupied by helping her decorate the nursery.

While Michael moves furniture into the nursery, Michael walks into the room where Clarisse and Joe are.

Mia- I have an appt. for an ultrasound in 2 minutes, will you come with me Grandma?

Clarisse- Sure honey, but don't you want Michael to go with you?

Mia- Yeah, but he's busy.

Clarisse- OK. I would be delighted to be with you while you go for your ultrasound.

They walk downstairs and into the in home doctors office.

Dr. Smith- Hey Mia! How are you feeling?

Mia- I'm OK.

Dr. Smith- That's good. Lie on the table and let's have a look. Hmmmm. (pause). I have a gender on your baby. Do you want to know?

Mia- Sure.

Dr. Smith- Michael will have a little girl to spoil.

Mia- Really? Grandma did you hear that? I am having a girl.

Clarisse- Yes I did. I am so happy for you.

Mia walks into the front office of her Genovian palace, and gets the mail. She finds a letter from an old friend.

Mia- Oh my god!

Secretary- Did you say something madam?

Mia- No.

She reads the letter.

Dear Mia,

I heard about your engagement, and I wanted to say congratulations. I also wanted to say I'm sorry about what happened at the beach. It was the photographers that got to my head. I hope you have a wonderful time with Michael and the baby.

♥ Always,

Josh

Michael- What's that.

Mia- Nothing.

She quickly puts the folded piece of paper away. Later that night Mia is lying down and Michael finds the letter on the table next to her.

Michael- What's this???

Mia- Oh that's a letter from someone at our old school.

Michael- When were you going to tell me about this?

Mia- I didn't think I had to, it came today.

Michael- Don't you think I would want to know.

Mia- Michael I don't know what your problem is! I haven't talked to Josh since that day at the beach! (Upset)

Michael- Then why did he send you a letter, and why didn't you tell me about it? (Annoyed)

Mia- (Sighing) I don't know why he sent me the letter! He's probably just trying to feed his ego! I mean the kid is a massive jerk. And I can't believe that you think that I would do something like that to you! We've been going out since high school. Were getting married and you are the father of our daughter. I would never do anything to hurt you Michael. I love you, and for all I care you can burn that damn letter. (Yelling at him)

Mia stormed off crying and locked herself in the bathroom. However, all the yelling and crying was making her sick. Michael could hear Mia being sick and felt like an ass for upsetting her and letting his insecurities get the best of him. Then all the sudden the bathroom door opened.

Mia- Michael! (Crying in pain)

Michael ran to the bathroom to find Mia clutching her stomach in pain.

Michael- Mia!?! (Scared)

Mia- Help me, Michael! (Crying)

Then Michael grabbed the phone in the bedroom to call Dr. Smith. Michael was so scared that he could barely dial the number. After he called the doctor Michael ran back to Mia.

Mia- Michael, I don't want anything to be wrong with our baby girl. I love her so much! (Still angry)

Michael- I know! I'm so sorry honey! This is all my fault! (Sadly)

Mia- No its not, it's the stress everyone has been under! I love you!

Michael- I love you too honey!

Just then the doctor walked in and Mia was on the floor clenching her stomach.

Dr. Smith- What's the problem here?

Michael- I don't know. Her stomach started hurting. - - What's wrong with Mia? What's wrong with my baby?

Dr. Smith- I'm going to need everyone out of here while I check.

Mia- I want Michael here with me.

Dr. Smith- Well Michael can be in here, but I want everyone else out.

At this time the doctor already knows what's wrong.

Dr. Smith- I know what's wrong, but in a few hours you are going to be parents.

Mia- But she is 2 months early, are you sure?

Dr. Smith- Well I said that you'd be parents, but they probably won't live.

Just then Mia started crying.

Michael- Honey stop crying, we can always try again.

Mia- But I wanted this one, I carried it for 7 months, so it could die, I don't think so!

Dr. Smith- There is a chance it could live.

Mia- How?

Dr. Smith- When it comes out I could rush it to incubation.

Mia- Well there is a good chance it could live, right?

Dr. Smith- Unfortunately, no. It is a better chance that she will die. But I need you to be strong. You are 3 cm dilated. It will be a little while before you have the baby. Michael, every time she has a contraction, time it. When it is 2 minutes apart, I want you to come and get me. This is going to be a little while, so I want you to relax.

They both looked into each others eyes, then all of the sudden, just as Michael looked away, he heard a snore coming from his fiancée's direction. He lay down right beside her, and was awaken by another contraction, but there was one problem...

Jenamariano and I have decided not to update this story anymore, or at least any time recently... in the future we might decide to finish this story... I'm very sorry to all of you who really wanted to see this story ended, I hope you all are not too disappointed.
