Chapter Eleven: Painful experiences
"Don't get mad, Alex" Jennifer said, Alex looked at her, confusion spread across her face, "I called my mom, they are looking for us!" Jennifer added. Alex glared at Jennifer and her face went a deep scarlet color.
"Do you mean to tell me that you told them where we were?" Alex concluded, giving Jennifer a burning look.
"Well… I told them we were in a tree house…" Jennifer explained.
"Why, would you do that?!" Alex asked annoyance evident in her tone. Jennifer stood up and now she was the one who was angry.
"Alex… Do you even realize how stupid we've been? We ran away and for what reason? Because you're such a baby that you can't even talk all this through with our moms! Then we got in that tree house that you swore was safe… but look at it now, Alex Vega! It's on the ground; we only just got out of it in time!" Jennifer yelled as she paced around Alex in circles.
"I'm s-sorry" Alex cried as she realized that Jennifer was right, had been right all along.
"So now Alex… I'm calling the shots, got it!" Jennifer declared. Alex nodded then tried to stand up. Her eyes watered in pain as she tried to balance on her left foot.
"What are we going to do now?" Alex wondered, as she held onto Jennifer's shoulder for support. Jennifer sighed and looked at her phone.
"I have a GPS app… Hopefully we can find our way back to a main road" Jennifer explained, as she clicked her way through her cell.
"Can you slow down a little, Jade?" Trina begged from the passenger seat. She was clutching her stomach in pain but doing her best to hide it from the pale woman driving the car. Trina had started getting pains not too long ago but she didn't want to worry the former goth any more than she already was.
"Sorry" Jade apologized as she drove now at the speed limit. "Did you ring Vega?" Jade asked. Trina chuckled and rolled her eyes at that.
"Which one? My mom? MY Dad? My sister?" Trina joked, Jade gave her a "Really?" look.
"Yes, I called Tori!" Trina told her, Jade gave the older girl a curt nod and looked back at the road ahead.
"What did she say?" Jade wondered, keeping her green-blue eyes fixed on the road.
"Just that she has an idea of where the tree house is and that we should keep looking until it's time to pick Patrick up from school... You know in case they didn't stay where they were" Trina told her before clutching her stomach again, Jade looked over at her with concern.
"Trina!" Jade shouted, managing to startle the pregnant woman. She looked up and smiled through the pain. "You're having contractions aren't you?" Jade accused, Trina let out a stray tear and nodded.
"Right, how far along are they?" Jade asked.
"I don't know Jade!" Trina shouted, annoyed. "Besides I'm NOT having this baby until we find my nieces!" Trina stated, leaning back in her seat.
Meanwhile Tori and Andre were on their way to an abandoned forest that Tori knew to have had a tree-house there. She and Alex had taken a walk a few times and ended up in that area. Tori silently cursed herself for not thinking about it sooner.
"Here we are!" Tori exclaimed as she pulled up on the curb and jumped out of the drivers seat, Andre following close behind her. Tori got out her phone and began dialing Alex' number desperately hoping she'd pick up this time. The phone rang for six rings until it was finally answered.
"Alex! Where are you?" Tori gasped, so surprised that her daughter had answered the phone.
"Mom, I don't know. I'm so sorry I ran away... we both are... OW!" Alex cried on the other end.
"Alex, what's wrong? You sound like you're in pain!" Tori asked, worriedly.
"It's nothing... I just twisted my ankle..." Alex explained. Tori nodded and sighed in relief, hopefully that was all that had happened to her.
"Where's Jennifer? Is she okay?" Tori wondered, feeling guilty that she hadn't asked straight away.
"Yeah, she's fine." Alex reassured her.
"Alex, are you by that big forest that we used to take walks through... when we were looking after the neighbors dog?" Tori wondered, hoping she had come to the right place.
"Uh, yeah..." Alex admitted. "I just don't know where abouts we are" Alex explained.
"Well what can you see?" Tori asked.
"Tree's" Alex said, sarcastically.
"We will find you Alex, Andre and I are walking around... we'll find you... Just stay on the phone... Okay, so I know you're both safe!" Tori said, in a very soothing voice. As if her children were babies and not teenagers.
"Mom, we're fine!" Alex claimed, starting to get annoyed.
"Tori won't answer" Jade told the woman beside her who was in much more pain and agony as before.
"I'll be fine, Jade... the contractions are on- Oooh... Ahhh... ten minutes apart" Trina groaned.
"That's it! I'm taking you to the hospital, Tori and Andre will find the girls! You need the hospital and you need it now!" Jade declared, as she put away her phone and began driving once again, probably managing to break a few road rules on her way to the hospital... The same hospital where Jennifer and Alex were born.
"If you can manage it, ring Cat, Robbie, Beck or Andre and let them know what's going on!" Jade demanded, keeping her eyes fixed on the road. Trina nodded and dialed the first number on her contacts list; Beck.
"Hey, Beck... OHHHH...FUCK!... Jade and I are on our way to the hospital... OHHH" Trina cried, out using her free hand to clutch her stomach.
"Trina, are you okay?" Beck asked, concerned.
"Yeah, just in labor, that's all... Can you try and get a hold of Tori and Andre..." Trina asked, her eyes watering.
"What about Patrick?" Beck asked, knowing that Jade's son needed to be picked up from school by someone. He could walk but it was really far and someone needed to inform the teenager of what was going on. Beck had a really good relationship with Jade's kids and they even called him; Uncle Beck sometimes.
"Jade, what about Patrick?" Trina asked, turning her head to the drivers seat.
"Umm, See if Beck can pick him up or Cat?" Jade said, feeling slightly guilty she'd forgotten her son in all of this mess.
"Can you pick her up? get Cat to?" Trina asked.
"Sure..." Beck agreed, not sure what else to say at this point. Trina clutched her stomach once again.
"Bye Beck" Trina said, hanging up. Now she had to call her husband and tell him she was in labor.
"We are nearly there" Jade informed her as Trina started to dial her husband; Mike.
Tears of relief fell down Tori Vega's face as she saw two figures in the distance, One of them was crouching on the floor while the other was standing with her hands on her hips.
"I think I see you now!" Tori told Alex as she hung up and ran towards her daughters. as she did she felt her phone vibrating again in her hand. She pressed; Accept and put the phone to her ear, It was Beck.
"Hey, Tori" Beck said sounding slightly panicked.
"Hi, Beck. What's up?" Tori asked as she walked ahead, the figures getting closer as she did.
"Trina's in labor and jade is taking her to hospital... have you found the girls yet?" Beck asked.
"I think so" She admitted, walking deeper into the forest.
"Good, So um... I'm going to pick up Patrick and I don't know what should I do after that?" Beck asked, she imagined he was running his hands through his hair, like he always used to do in school.
"Umm, bring him to me... I suppose we'll go to the hospital, I need to speak to Jade and he's her son so... as soon as I have him, I guess you off the hook" Tori said, smiling at the last part. She got closer and was close enough to see that it was them. Shit! where's Andre? she thought looking around for her best friend.
"Okay, so I'll drop him off at the hospital then?" Beck asked.
"Yeah, I've found the girls... I gotta find Andre now... Let him know the search is over" Tori said, as she ended the call.
"Mom!" Alex called, obviously relieved as she saw Tori getting closer. She was sitting on the ground clutching her swollen ankle.
"Do you girls realize how stupid you both were?!" Tori asked, as she realized they were safe. She'd been so worried over the time they'd been missing. Sure they hadn't been gone for very long but a mother worries, it's in her nature. It was just the fact they were both still alive knowing what could have happened to her girls while they were out running away in LA, the world wasn't safe and they were both old enough to know better!
"Sorry" The both said, looking at the ground shamefully. Tori held out her arms for both of them to hug and couldn't help crying.
"Are we there... Y- OHHHH, OWWWW yet?" Trina screamed, her contractions were getting closer now.
"Yeah, we're here!" Jade said, as she swerved into the entrance of the parking lot. She'd probably earned quite a few parking tickets today but she didn't care because in a way this was proving to Tori, that she was good enough for her and cared about her and her sister, besides she wasn't going to let what happened to Tori and herself happen to Trina! She'd make sure of it! Jade found an empty space and drove into it, hitting the break peddle as she got to the end and switched the car off.
"Come on, let's get you inside!" Jade said, getting out to open Trina's door. Trina clutched the car door to help herself out then grabbed onto Jade's arm for support as they walked up to the doors of the hospital.
"We need a wheelchair, NOW!" Jade demanded, to a member of staff as they walked in. Jade glared at the woman as she froze in place causing her to do what the pale woman had told her to, within seconds the woman had handed her a wheel chair and Jade was helping Trina into it. Jade wheeled Trina to the lifts and pressed the up button, already knowing where the maternity ward was, she wheeled Trina inside and pressed the button.
Andre was waiting at the car when Tori came back with the girls. Tori and Jennifer had to hold Alex up for support upon seeing this Andre rushed over to them and lifted the fifteen year old with ease.
"I've got this" He told them as he walked to the car and helped her into the back seat.
"Is my mom mad at me?" Jennifer asked, feeling really guilty.
"She's more worried, you gave us both a scare" Tori told her as they inched closer to the car.
"Just get in the car, we can all talk about this at the hospital" Tori said as she got inside the driver's seat and Jennifer got in the back. Andre was already in the car.
"The hospital?" Alex asked confused. "Mom, I don't need a hospital, I'm fine!" Alex said.
"It's not for you... not that you don't need to see a doctor for that ankle of yours. your aunt Trina is in labor, Jade's there with her and Beck's bring Patrick there" Tori explained as she buckled up.
A/N: Okay, so I have no idea what people scream when in labor so hopefully I got some of it right? And This was all new territory for me, so I hope it was okay. I'm not good with these kinds of things, I think. I don't know... Anyway, hope you liked this chapter and please review! Thank-you! :) Also, I had no idea what to name the chapter and I literally sat here giggling for no reason about some of the ideas that popped into my head, so if you think it's a lame name for the chapter and can think of something better then feel free to let me know... Anyway, I should stop rambling...
