AN: Alright, next post!

"You know, I think you'd be really impressed that I figured out how to put this thing on." I explained to Sonny. Bryce was securely strapped into the newborn front pack that was wrapped around my shoulders. "It might have taken half an hour to put on, but it really was no big deal." Bryce glanced up at me and grinned before smacking me on the chin with a chubby fist. "Okay, fine, I lied." I admitted. "It took me an hour, and I had to call the company for instructions." I smiled down at the cherub face with blue eyes and dirty blonde hair. "Sonny you really are lucky that you've got this guy here keeping me in line."

I tickled Bryce's onesie covered stomach before gently kissing the top of the soft spot on the crown of his head.

"Although I wouldn't mind if it was you doing that job." I sighed reaching out my hand to grasp her's.

But out of nowhere some erratic alarm went off.

Somewhere we went wrong

"What the hell." I mumbled searching the room for the source of the noise. There were so many flashing lights and machines that I didn't even know where to start. "Nurse!" I called out and heard light footsteps come jogging down the hall.

"I heard." Said the middle aged women who appeared in the room. She darted around, her eyes flickering to hover for a moment on each machine checking the data with what was on Sonny's chart. She pressed a button onto the pager clipped to her hip and within the minute another nurse and a doctor joined us in the now crowed room.

The second nurse began poking and prodding Sonny, checking pulses and heartbeats with a stethoscope, while the first nurse and the doctor chattered so quickly that I didn't catch a single word.

"Can someone please tell me what is going on?" I asked desperately, and with all the commotion in the room the tension quickly spread to Bryce and he began to fuss.

"Mr. Cooper, we need to ask you to leave," The first nurse said stepping towards me and ushering me back a step.

"What? No, I want to know what's happening." I said urgently, peering over the older woman's shoulder at the hospital bed.

"I can have someone come and update you as soon as we know for sure. But right now the best thing is to leave the room so that we can-"

"No! That's my wife, I need to be here." I said defiantly trying to side step the nurse who continued to block my way. "Please, can you just tell me something?" I begged, my patience wearing thin and the desperation, fear and anxiety ebbing from my words. The nurse sighed glancing back quickly.

"All I can tell you for sure right now, is that Sonny's breathing is becoming irregular. Up until now she was fine doing it on her own, but now she isn't getting enough oxygen and it's affecting her heart." I suddenly felt numb and allowed the nurse to lead me outside the hospital room and close the door behind me.

We were once so strong

"Have I ever told you that doctor's clinics creep me out?" I asked Sonny when she walked out of the exam room. I had been sitting in our general doctor's waiting room reading a people magazine.

"You have actually, repeatedly." She smiled sweetly, and something glinted in her eyes.

"What is it?" I asked standing up worriedly, searching her face for some clue as to what was up.

"Nothing, just a usual check up," She said quickly, taking my hand and leading me out the doctor's office.

"That was such a bad lie."I said accusingly.

"I still don't see why you don't like the doctors'." She said changing the subject, I wanted to press her for information, but like usual it was her way or no way at all.

"Because everyone who goes in there is sick. Same reason I don't like hospitals." I said shaking at the chill that ran down my back.

"That's not true. I'm not sick." She said as we reached our car.

"Well, I'm not so sure about that. Seeing as you won't tell me anything." I pouted opening the passenger door for her.

"I'm not sick." She insisted once I was sitting in the driver's seat and the car was started.

"That still doesn't tell me anything," I sing-songed pulling out of our parking spot.

"Fine. You really want to know what the doctor told me?" She said annoyed and glaring dangerously.

"Yeah, I really do." I snapped.

"I'm pregnant. We're going to have a baby." I slammed on the breaks and looked at her in shock.

"You're-"

"Yep."

"And we're-"

"Uhuh." I stared straight ahead feeling like m tongue had swelled up leaving me incapable of speech.

"Surprise!" She said mocking my sing-song voice and laughing through her bright smile.

Our love is like a song

"Chad? What's going on?" Connie's voice sounded worried on the other line.

"I don't know! She was fine and then an alarm went off and they made me leave the room! And they won't explain anything to me-" I said in frustration.

"Sweetheart, I know you're stressed but you have to stay as calm as possible and keep a clear head. It sounds impossible, I know. But it's really the best you can do for you, or Bryce or Sonny." She paused before adding, "Do you need me to come in?" In a fearful tone.

"You're right. And no, it's fine. I'll call you if I get any news." I said shakily and doubtful of even my own words.

"If you're sure." She said skeptically.

"I am. Thanks though." I snapped my cell phone shut and looked up as a doctor strode up to me. Bryce was out of the pack and sitting firmly on my hip playing with my hand as the doctor attempted to smile and squeezed his sock covered foot.

"Hey there little guy."

"Are you going to tell me what's happening?" I asked impatient.

"Of course Mr. Cooper. Up until now your wife's vitals had all been completely stable, but what happened just now was unpredicted, and could have been due to her have being here for such an extended amount of time. Nine weeks?" He said glancing down at his clipboard to check.

"Nine weeks and three days." I said quickly, having remembered checking and counting all the x's on the calendar this morning. "Please tell me it's going to be okay." I pleaded, glancing down at Bryce's face.

"There is always a chance that everything will be, don't give up on that. But, I don't have good news."

You can't forget it
At all
