Hey. I know I said I wasn't going to be posting much, but I have been studying the past two days like crazy and I need an escape! For those of you who want to know how old I am and stuff just look in my bio. I will answer the age thing, I'm exactly 19 and one month today! Alright on to the story!

Complications Happen

It had been 18 hours since Emma and Jay brought Alex to the hospital. Things were not progressing. The doctor said it was fine that her water broke because she was only due in two weeks. However, complications that the doctor overlooked, were becoming visible.

"Alex, don't push OK? No matter how much you feel like you have to, don't. The baby is in an awkward position. You might need to have a C-section." The doctor finished examining Alex, and excused himself. Emma was sitting in a chair next to Alex holding her hand.

"Em, what if something happens? What if the baby..." Alex started to cry.

Emma stood up from the chair and leaned in to give her a hug, "Alex, the baby will be okay. You can't stress. It might make things work." Emma's voice was shaking. She wasn't sure if she believed her own words. "Do you want some ice chips?"

"Yeah. Thanks."

"No problem. I'll be right back. Want me to tell Ellie to come in?"

"Actually, do you think it would be weird if I asked you if Jay could come in?"

"No, of course not. I'll go get him." Emma opened the door and walked to the waiting room to where Jay, Craig, Manny, Sean and Ellie were sitting. "Jay? Alex wants to see you. I'm going to go get her some ice chips."

Jay got up and kissed Emma on the forehead before going into Alex's room. Ellie was leaning on Sean's shoulder, asleep. Craig looked like he was about to fall asleep, too. Manny got up, and walked to find ice chips.

"How's she doing?"

"I don't know. The doctor says she might need a C-section. Has anyone tried to call J.T.?"

Manny sighed, "Yeah, about that. I guess he doesn't want anything to do with the baby or Alex. He wants a divorce. I guess he met someone else. What an ass."

"I can't believe that. I wonder if Alex knows."

Meanwhile in Alex's hospital room...

Jay politely knocked on the door, he faintly heard Alex say come in. He walked over to her bed.

"Jay, I need a favor." Alex sounded so close to death.

"Anything Lex."

"Sit down, first." Alex pointed to seat that was occupied by Emma 10 minutes ago. Jay quickly sat down and grabbed one of her hands.

"How are you doing?"

"Not good, Jay. Listen, if anything...If anything happens, you know, to me, I want you and Emma to take the baby. J.T..."

"Is an asshole and should be killed," he stopped when he saw the confused look on Alex's face, "Manny called him. He told her that he didn't want..." Jay couldn't finish his sentence. He didn't get how someone could just walk away from their child.

"To be burdened with a baby or me. That's not the point, though. I have a feeling. A bad one. I know something is going to happen. If it doesn't then good. Either way, I want to be prepared. I asked the nurse to bring me some forms to fill out. All that needs to happen now, is you and Emma just have to sign. That's if you want him or her."

"Alex, don't talk like this. Please. You're going to be OK."

"Jay, please. Just say you will take care of my baby if anything happens. These forms will be null and void if nothing happens to me. Please, Jay."

"Alright. I will. I know Emma will." Jay picked up the papers that were on the table on the other side of Alex's bed and signed his name. When he finished he turned back to Alex.

"Thank you, Jay. Don't let the baby know that J.T. didn't want anything to do with us. Don't let the baby know about all the bad things I've done."

"Alex, you're a great person. Your child will know that." Jay leaned over and kissed her on the forehead. "I'm going to go get Emma to sign the papers. I'll be right, OK?"

"Alright."

Jay started walking towards the door, but a loud, long beeping sound stopped him. He turned back around. He looked at a monitor. It was a flat line. Then he looked at Alex. He ran over to her.

"No that's not a heart monitor. Right? Alex! You're sleeping! Please! Alex!" He ran to the door and opened it, "Someone help! Please!" A bunch of nurses and a few doctors came running in. He saw Emma and Manny walking down the hall. Jay suddenly remember the papers. He ran back in the room and grabbed them. It was Alex's last wish. A nurse saw him over by the bed and started yelling at him.

"You! Get out of here! We'll let you know what's going on as soon as we know!"

Jay ran out of the room and over to Emma. She was standing 10 feet away from Alex's room with everyone.

"Em, you have to sign these. Now. Alex said..." Jay started to cry. "Alex said she wants us...Wants us to adopt the baby if anything happens."

Emma grabbed the papers and went over to her bag and grabbed a pen. She signed it right away.

An hour had passed since the monitor flat lined. A lady had came up to them asking for the papers. She didn't know what Alex's condition was, but a nurse had told her to get the papers as soon as possible.

The all sat quietly near the door. Trying to hear anything. Alex's voice, or a baby cry. Then finally at 1 a.m. on June 1, 2007, the heard a baby cry. About 10 minutes later a nurse came out to speak with Jay and Emma.

"Mr. and Mrs. Hogart?" Emma and Jay stood up, "I understand that if anything happened to Mrs. Yorke you both would gain custody of the child?"

They nodded yes. They didn't know what to say.

"Well, unfortunately, Mrs. Yorke died soon after she had the baby. She had to have a C-section. She lost too much blood. She said you both could decide on a name as long as the middle name was Jason and the last name Hogart. I'm very sorry." She walked away from them.

Emma and Jay looked at each other.

"Jay, we're going to have another baby in 2 months. How will we do this?"

"I don't know baby." He pulled her into a hug as their friends walked over to them.

Sean put an arm around Emma, "So, I don't know if I should say congratulations or not. This situation sucks."

Emma and Jay were in the nursery holding Alex's baby. They were discussing baby names.

Emma looked at Jay holding the tiny baby, she couldn't believe what had happened.

Jay was looking down at the baby, then looked up at Emma, "How about Alexander?"

Emma smiled, "That's perfect. Alexander Jason Hogart."

They both kissed the baby's forehead.

I wanted to at least get the name in their. How do you like? I figured it would be nice. No clue when I'll update again! Sorry for the crappy chapter!
