*Mal's POV*
After spending most of the night tossing, turning and being up half of the night I decided to try and have a nap before my appointment with Doctor Cameron today. I was actually in two minds whether to go; as he was still trying to ring me about Ben. However I had come to a decision; I would go to the appointment; but if he started trying to bring Ben up I would teleport straight out of there. I really couldn't understand why he wouldn't just let this drop; surely he could see that this was stressful enough for me without him being relentless?
Thankfully due to the heat and my exhaustion I was able to drift off the sleep quite easily; however it didn't take very long for me to wake up to a sudden sharp pain in my stomach.
"NO!" I screamed as I cupped my stomach. "No I'm not ready yet!" I added in a panic. "You are only 34 weeks baby" I cooed; and I felt my little one wiggle slightly as the pain subsided for a few seconds before the pain suddenly came back. "UUUURRRRGGGGHHHH!" I cried out again as I curled tightly into a ball in my bed. I couldn't believe that this was happening! I couldn't bear it if anything happened to my baby. And the fact that they were early was scaring me.
My mind then went onto Ben; and I started to think about what to do. I needed to get help; but I didn't think that this is how Ben should find out about our baby. My mind then went onto Uma and I started to panic which started to cause the pain to increase as I didn't want to attract any attention to my pregnancy.
So with a plan starting to form in my mind I pulled my old phone out with it's phone charger out of my bedside cabinet and I quickly plugged my phone in. When my phone came on it started to go berserk; but I ignored everything and opened my contacts and rang who I thought would be able to help me through this - Evie.
"Mal!" she exclaimed after she answered after the phone rang only two times.
"Evie where are you?" I panted as I started to feel the pain start to build up again.
"What?" she asked in confusion.
"Evie I need you!" I urged as I bit down on my bottom lip as I suppressed the pain. I didn't want Evie to hear me in pain just yet; as Lucifer only knows what she would be thinking or do if she heard me. "But I don't want you to tell anyone where I am" I stressed. "Please?" I begged as the pain started to ebb away.
"Ok" she replied in confusion.
"Where are you?" I asked again.
"In our dorm" she explained.
"On your own?" I questioned.
"On my own" she repeated.
"Ok!" I cried out in pain before I could stop myself.
"Mal!" she exclaimed. "Mal what's wrong?" she urged.
"Evie come to the edge of the rose garden at Auradon Castle" I panted as I started to work on my breathing. "I will meet you there" I advised.
"Ok" she said.
"Ring me when you are there?" I advised.
"Ok" she repeated.
"Evie?" I started.
"Yes?" she answered.
"Don't tell Ben" I pleaded.
"I won't" she promised; and I could tell by the sound of her voice that she was happy that she was finally getting to see me. But she didn't know the shock that was in store for her when she did. "I am on my way" I heard her say.
"Ok" I nodded. "See you soon" I added before I hung up as the pain suddenly built up again. I then rolled onto my back and looked up at the ceiling of my bedroom; I hoped that Evie wouldn't be very long. Hopefully she would know what to do; and she could help me with a plan of action on finally telling Ben - which was way overdue!
