Curtains Close; Take a bow. I think we fooled all of them now.

Oli's POV

She lay there, screaming out for me and reaching up with clenched fists. I tried to hush her, but she wouldn't listen. She rolled over with pain and started to scream louder.

"Baby, please don't scream. Everything is going to be alright." I wrapped the blankets around her and covered her mouth with my hand.

She starred me in the eye, motionless. "I'm not going to be alright. Danny tried to warn me..." She closed her eyes and cried, clinging onto my chest.

I didn't know what to do. Maybe she wasn't going to be alright. The nearest hospital was an hour away, I started to doubt if she could make it without giving birth in the car. It's better to doubt than to waist time, so I lifted her up and ran with her, down the stairs and into the backseat.

"Hanley!" I shouted, up the stairs. "Hanley!"

I swung his door open and pulled him out of his bed, grabbing the blankets he was wrapped in and cradling him down into the car. His sleepy eyes glared in the dim light, and he looked frightened.

In the backseat, Rain's legs were spread out and she was crying. "I'm not going to make it. I'm going to die..." She repeated, wailing and screeching. I calmed her, telling her to close her eyes while I drive.

Eventually she fell silent.

I kept looking back at her, trying to see if she was okay. She still had her eyes open, but she was clenching her stomach and her breathing and increased. I reached my hand through the back and told her to hold onto it until we got there.

I didn't want to take her to hospital. Because she had completely disappeared off the records. People had been looking for her for a long time, and if I took her to the hospital, she would be found again. But at the time, I saw death lingering over her, and I decided that if I could do anything for her, then I would. At least the doctors would understand if there was something wrong.

"We are here baby." I hummed, pushing out of the car door and picking her up out of the backseat. She mumbled to me, clinging onto my shoulder. Her legs dangled over the edge of my arms and I could see blood running down them. "You're going to be fine Rain." Hanley was fast asleep in the passenger seat. I whispered to her, running up the steps to the hospital.

I burst in through the doors and started shouting. "My girlfriend is giving birth!" I cried, looking around the room helplessly. A doctor turned his head and lead me to a room with a clean bed in the center. He helped me to lay her down.

The doctor accessed her, spreading her legs and checking how far along the birth was. He looked up to me with a sweaty face. "She's ready to push. Hold onto her. I'll be back." He quickly left the room and returned with other doctors and a few medical tools.

"Come on Rain!" I shouted out to her. She limply rolled her head and bit her lip as she pushed.

A doctor waddled up beside me and started to ask questions. "How far along is she?" He asked.

I looked at him blankly. "I don't know. We never had any check ups. She's never been to the hospital throughout the pregnancy."

He lowered his eyes. "Alright..." He pulled out a paper. "I will need you to fill this in right now for us. We need some background on her before we can provide her with any painkillers."

I scribbled down her name and her history before chucking it back at him. "Please. Give her everything you can." I begged.

I sat down beside her, clenching onto her hand. She took a final heavy breath and pushed once more. We both heard a baby cry and the doctors looked down at the tiny, bloody baby and picked it up.

"It's... A girl!" They announced.

Rain started to sob. "She's so beautiful..." She started to sob louder now, covering her face with her hands in shame.

Suddenly the doctors looked around at each other fearfully. "We need to run some tests." They said, placing the baby inside an insulated box and running it down the corridor.

Both Rain and I started to panic.She hopelessly starred at herself, watching her hands tremble and her feet twitch. Something was wrong with our baby. The worry hung over us like a thick fog and I wanted to take Rain and our baby home now.
