Disclaimer: I do not own Degrassi, ect. Ok, sorry this took so long! I feel so guilty. I re-named my story! It is now called "My Something." So anyways, 96 reviews! That kicks butt! I am doing a little happy dance now. Ok, I'm done and will start writing. Oh! This chapter will be in Jay's point-of-view. Also, this chapter has some strong language so sorry if you're offended by it!
I dug a quarter out of pocket and stuck it in the slot on the payphone. I dialed the phone with trembling fingers. What the fuck was wrong with me? The phone rang twice and Emma's mom answered. "Simpson residence." "Umm, Hello, Mrs. Simpson, I need you to come to the hospital, there's something wrong with the baby." Great job, Jay. Just blurt it out why don't you! "Jay? Ok, we'll be there soon. Tell Emma that we love her." We both hung up and I wandered back to the waiting room. There was a vending machine down the hall from the waiting room and I wandered over and dug some more money out of pocket. I looked through my change and picked out a dollar and seventy-five cents. I surveyed my choices and decided on a bag of skittles. I sat down in a hard plastic chair and waited for news on Emma's condition. Emma's mom and dad rushed in carrying a sleeping Jack. "Jay, how is Emma? How's the baby?" Emma's mom was frantic. "I don't know, they haven't told me anything yet. Something about me not being Emma's immediate family." Spike replied "That's ridiculous! You're the baby's father and Emma's... something. " Snake went to inquire at the desk. After conversing for a few minutes with the person at the desk he returned with the news. "They say she's stable and that we can go see her." I breathed a sigh of relief and asked the crucial question. "What about the baby, Mr. Simpson? What did they say about the baby? Did it make it?" He gravely said, "I don't know, Jay." I followed Emma's parents to room 113.
Emma's parent's entered the room before me and I decided to give them a moment before I went in. "Mommy?" Emma said. She seems so fragile and broken. Fuck, what happened to me? I felt so emotional. This wasn't me! I walked down the hallway and grabbed a donut from a tray of free ones and stuffed it into my mouth whole. I returned to Emma's room just in time to hear her say "Don't tell Jay." I entered furious. "Don't tell me what?" I said calmly even though I was seething inside. "Jay." Emma says quietly. "I think we need to talk. Mom, Dad, can we have a moment alone?" Mrs. Simpson kissed Emma's forehead and they both left the room. "What do you need to tell me, Em?" I asked quietly. Emma took a deep breathe as tears welled up in her eyes. "Something happened Jay. I... I lost our baby. It's gone! My baby's gone." She collapsed in tears. I couldn't believe it. "Fuck, Fuck, FUCK. WHY IS THIS HAPPENING AGAIN?" I felt like punching a hole in the wall. Why would I have to go through this again? Emma looked daggers at me. "HAPPENING AGAIN? WHAT DO YOU MEAN, HAPPENING AGAIN? HOW MANY OTHER GIRLS HAVE YOU GOTTEN PREGNANT?" "Crap, Emma. Don't fucking yell at me. I tell you what happened IF you calm down." She opened and closed her mouth. I nodded and started to tell the story.
"Two years ago. Two years ago, Alex came to me and she was crying. It was the first time I had ever seen her cry. I had seen her smile, laugh and scream but I had never seen her cry. Not even after her mother's boyfriend of the week had beat up her mother and left Alex to take care of her while he was out boozing it up. She was always just angry, she never cried." I ran my hand through my hair and struggled to keep my emotions in check. "I've never told anyone this story before. Ok, where was I? Alex was crying and I knew something was really wrong. I just held her and she told me she was pregnant. I had no idea what I was going to do. Alex was one and half months pregnant when she miscarried. I will ALWAYS remember that night. We were at her house and I.. I was going to propose. Don't say anything until I'm done." Emma snapped her mouth shut again. "I was going to propose. I got down on one knee and everything. I had my grandmother's ring. I said it. I said, 'Alex will you marry me?' She looked at me and then her eyes went wide. She bent at the waist and looked like she was in pain. I brought her to the hospital but she lost it. She lost our baby just you're losing OUR baby. And it's all my fault. Again. After that Alex and I just started growing apart. We eventually broke up and we both moved on." Shit. I was crying. Emma sat there watching me. "Jay. It wasn't your fault. There was nothing you could do to save Alex's baby. Sometimes those things just happen. But, our baby? Losing our baby was my fault. I should have just rested. So it wasn't your fault. It was mine." Now she was crying. I wiped at my face. "I, I have to go." I said. Emma said "Wait! Jay. I have something to tell you. I'm leaving Degrassi. I'll come to get my stuff tomorrow and then I'm moving. My grandmother lives in Pickering. I'm going to live with her. I can't be around this place any more. There's so many bad memories that I just can't face. So... Goodbye." I was stunned. "Em..." I trailed off. There was nothing I could say. I would get out of this town if there was anyway that I could. "You every gonna come back?" She shrugged. "Who knows what will happen. If I do come back for break or something, will you talk to me?" I smiled and said "Of course."
THE STORY IS NOT OVER. I REPEAT, THE STORY IS NOT OVER. IT WILL CONTINUE. Well, not that I've got that over with, what does everyone think of this chapter? Poor Jay. He lost both of his un-born children.
