Chapter 2- Layla's Secret
He reached the door to the bedroom and stopped. Punk was afraid to open the door becuase of what he might see. The silence in the room was killing him so he took a deep breath and barged in.
"Layla!" He yelled as he entered the room. This made Layla jump from her nap.
"What?! What happened Phil?!" She exclaimed as she started freaking out.
"Are you alright?! I heard a loud thud from up here..."
"Yes, I'm alright. As you can see I was napping so I don't know what that noise was."
The thud sound came again and both Brooks and Layla looked out the door.
"Umm, Phil.."
"You heard that too?"
"Yeah, I did. But what's that smell?"
Brooks lifted his head and started to smell around. He followed the smell until he reached the kitchen. He jumped back at the sight of the fire covering the top of the stove.
"Layla!" He screamed as he left the kitchen. This made Layla run down to where Punk was.
"What is it? Oh my god! Phil, the house! What happened?!"
"I-I don't...I don't remember!"
"I'm going to call 911!"
Layla rushed down the hall and to the bedroom. She quickly grabbed the phone and dialed the number. While she did that, Phil was still downstairs trying to put the fire out. He was having a hard time breathing and nearly collapsed. But before that happened, Layla came running to his aid.
"They're on the way!" She said pratically screamed.
"Good, now let's get out of he-.."
All ofa sudden Punk choked. He coughed and coughed like a mad man! Soon after, Layla did the same. They tried to escape but they couldn't see.
"Layla...are you...are you ok?" He managed to choke out before passing out.

Punk awoke to find doctors surrounding him. He was so lost and confused but didn't say anything. Minutes went by and he started to come to a little better. Soon he was wide awake and everything started to make sense. He looked around to see if Layla was there, but she wasn't.
"Layla! Where's Layla?!" He said as he began to freak out.
Soon the doctoers came rushing in to calm Brooks down, but there was no luck. He kept freaking out to the point they had to give him a shot. After about 15 minutes, he woke up again. He sat up and rubbed his head. He really needed to calm down if he wanted to know about Layla.
"Excuse me, doc. Can you tell me how my girlfriend is?"
The doctor turned and walked in. He had a sad look on his face.
"Well Layla's alright. But, I'm afraid you lost the baby."
"Baby? What baby?" Punk said, shocked and confused.
"Oh, she didn't tell you? She was 5 weeks pregnant."
