Aaliyah never felt as happy as she did when she woke up next to Casey. It had been almost 2 weeks since the pair had got back together. Casey never usually stayed over properly, but on this occasion Riley had stayed the night at the Braxton's. Darcy had begged Heath to let him stay.

The sun glaring through the curtains had roused the pair. "Morning Beautiful" Casey smiled as he kissed Aaliyah on the forehead. "Hello you" she smiled snuggling into him. Casey looked at the clock on Aaliyah dressing table. "I'd better get going" Casey said as he started to get out of bed. Aaliyah dropped her lip "Please stay, just a bit longer, please" she sulked. "Fine" Casey groaned before laying back down. Aaliyah welcomed him back into her bed by planting kisses all down his chest, before climbing onto top of him and straddling him. Casey put his hand behind her neck and pulled her face down towards his, he met her lips with a passionate kiss. Before they could take things further they were disturbed by an urgent knock at the door.

Aaliyah rushed through the house, putting on her silk dressing gown. As she opened the door she was shocked to see Irene stood the other side of it. Aaliyah couldn't help noticing how distressed Irene looked. "Hey, Irene what's wrong?" Aaliyah asked curiously.

"I'm sorry to disturb you so early love but its Bianca, her and Liam have just got back from the hospital" Irene explained. Aaliyah's heart sank.

"Hospital? Irene's what's happened is Bianca OK?" Aaliyah questioned frantically

"Bianca's fine, but she's lost the baby" Irene's words stabbed Aaliyah like a 1000 knives. She knew she had to go and see her.

After Irene had left Aaliyah rushed back into the bedroom. "Hey baby, are you ok?" Casey said as he sat up, to watch his girlfriend who was frantically getting dressed. Aaliyah had tears in her eyes "No, not really. It's Bianca…"

Casey looked confused. "Bianca's lost her baby" Aaliyah cried. As she said the words she felt herself break down. Casey quickly got out of bed and put his arms around her.

Aaliyah walked slowly to the door of Irene's house. She knew how this conversation was going to go. She took a deep breath as she knocked gently. It was Liam who came to the door, as he saw who it was he opened the door wider and gestured for her to come in. Aaliyah knew that he wouldn't wanna hear things like 'I'm so sorry' or 'how are you feeling' so she didn't say anything. Aaliyah just simply walked past Liam putting her hand on his shoulder. Bianca was in her bedroom. Aaliyah tapped gently on the door before opening it slowly.

Bianca looked up as Aaliyah walked in. Aaliyah could she had been crying. As Aaliyah walked over to the bed Bianca started to sob. Aaliyah threw her arms around her friend and held her tightly "It hurts so much" Bianca cried uncontrollably. "I know sweetie, I now" Aaliyah replied as she stoked Bianca's hair soothingly. Bianca cried like this for about 10 minutes before finally pulling away from Aaliyah. "I can't believe its over just like that, I didn't even no if it was a girl or boy" Bianca spoke grimly.

"What did you think it was?" Aaliyah asked a confused looking Bianca.

"I lost a baby, it was a girl" Aaliyah explained softly.

"When" Bianca gasped as she wiped her eyes

"I was 18 at the time. Me and Johnny had only been married 4 months when I found out I was pregnant. Neither of us was happy about it to start with and if I'm honest I almost had an abortion" Aaliyah explained, getting more emotional.

"Why didn't you?" Bianca asked curiously

"Because Johnny stopped me, he said we could be a proper family and this was the start of something new. He said having a baby was a good reason to go legit" Aaliyah continued as tears filled her eyes.

"So what happened" Bianca asked.

"Everything was going fine until we went for the 3 month scan. They couldn't find the baby's heartbeat. I can still remember Johnny's face when the doctor told us. I still think to this day, for that split second I saw him, Johnny blamed me" Aaliyah had started to cry a little. Bianca put her arm around her. "Hey, come on, I'm supposed to be comforting you" Aaliyah smiled, this comment made Bianca smile a little too.

Aaliyah stayed with Bianca for just over two hours before leaving to pick up Riley. She had managed to make Bianca laugh a few times before leaving.

As Aaliyah walked into her house she went straight to look for Casey but he had already left. Waiting for her on her pillow was a note- Same time tonight C x x- Aaliyah's heart skipped a beat as she read the note. She couldn't wait to see him again.
