Sorry it's so short I just felt like this was the right place to end it.


'So what's going on with you and Carla? Are you two over?' Aiden asks as he places a cup of coffee in front of Nick before sitting down on the sofa.

'I don't know. It broke my heart to leave her like that yesterday but I know we need some space and I know that she was okay with Kate... I tried phoning her this morning, she ignored me. I just wanted to see how she was.' Nick replies sighing.

'She's scared, Nick. In her head at the moment she's pretty sure she's fucked up the best thing she's ever had.' Aiden says.

'I've done the one thing I said I wouldn't, haven't I? I left her when she clearly needed me the most.' Nick says resting head in his hands.

'You're hurting, Nick. That's understandable, what Carla done was-' Aiden begins and Nick shakes his head.

'What Carla done was wrong yeah but she was self destructing Aiden, I've seen that before. I promised her we would try get through this.' Nick says.

'So what does this mean?' Aiden asks.

'I'm gonna get my shit together and fulfill my promise. I'm not going to let that bastard break us up. We have worked so fucking hard for this relationship.' Nick replies nodding his head.

'I'm not losing her. Not when I waited so fucking long to get her.' He adds.


'Kate, you need to phone someone.' Carla says as she emerges from the bathroom, her face pale as she keeps her hands pressed against her stomach.

'Who? What are you going on about, Carla?' Kate asks.

'Anyone with a car... I need to go to the hospital.' Carla replies groaning as she leans against the wall.

'Why? What's wrong?' Kate asks instantly grabbing her phone.

'I don't know but this is borderline unbearable.' Carla practically screams as another pain shoots across her abdomen.

'Okay... I'm phoning Chelle, sit down.' Kate says instantly ringing her cousin's number.

'I can't... Fuckity fuck fuck fuck...' Carla groans, her palms pressed flat against the wall.

Knock. Knock. Knock.

'Who is it?' Kate shouts as the phone goes through to Michelle's answer phone.

'Nick, let me in.' The voice replies.

'You need to tell him Carla... I can't get hold of Michelle.' Kate says and Carla groans in response. Rushing over to the door, Kate swings it open and let's both Aiden and Nick enter.

'What's going on? Carla, what's wrong?' Nick asks rushing over to his fiancée who is breathing heavily.

'We need to go to the hospital. She's pregnant. Nick. She tried to tell you yesterday but yeah. She's over 25 weeks.' Kate explains and Nick places his hand on Carla's back.

'Okay... I've got you, come on baby.' He says letting her wrap her arm around his shoulder.

'Oh god!' She groans, almost falling as the pain comes once again.

'Aiden? Help.' Nick says somehow managing to hold her up. Between him and Aiden they get her downstairs and into the car beginning the journey to the hospital.
