The past couple of months I've been bedridden. Hunter's been taking care of the twins for the past 3 months all by himself. Everybody's tried to get me out of this stage. Nobody's accomplished it yet. Hunter's tried plenty of times. Caleb, Demi, my adoptive mom and dad, my biological mom, Leila, Isabella, basically everybody I know. Most of the people have tried once. I have a meal a day, I don't deserve to be here. I was pregnant with twins and I lost them. One is hard enough, but two. I just lay here in bed, that's all I've done the past 3 months. I hear a knock on the door and it opens. I hear two people talking. "Beware, she's in a horrible stage right now. She hasn't gotten out of bed in a couple months." "Don't worry, I'll help her." "If you insist." I hear our door open. "It's Demi." She sits down on our bed. I can tell she's waiting for a response, but I refuse. "Anyways, I'm going to help you. You want to see the twins grow up, right?" I shrug. "I can move away by myself and then I could do whatever I want. I could commit suicide and nobody would find out." "Are you sure? I would find out. You would stop replying to my texts, and I would come to your house. Heck, you don't text me nowadays because of this situation." I sigh. "Nobody cares about me." She sighs, shaking her head. "I care about you, all 4 of your parents care about you, Caleb cares about you, Isabella cares about you, heck you don't see it but Hunter must love you;he's staying up 24/7 to take care of the kids. I would say that's a perfect husband, wouldn't you?" I shrug, nodding. She puts her hands on my elbows, about to hug me, but sighs and pulls the sleeves up. "Nic, you really have a purpose in this world. If you didn't, why would god've made you?" I take a deep breath and smile. She puts her hand out. "If you get out of this bed, I'll never leave your side. Heck I'll take care of 3 kids, I don't care. I just want you to be standing up, questioning why you ever were bedridden. Come on." I grab her hand and get up. I look over at the baby monitor. An exhausted Hunter is standing with 2 2 year old girls. I nearly swear and burst into tears. "I missed the twins' birthday!" Demi looks at me. "It's nobody's fault you forgot, though. You were bedridden and out of the right mind, and the miscarriage was nobody's fault. Trust me." I slowly nod and look at the monitor. There's a crying Lauren. I watch as Hunter walks out of the babies room. Hunter walks into our room and smiles as he sees me out of bed. He pecks my lips quickly. Lauren reaches for me and immediately stops crying as I touch her. I pull her close and burst into tears. "Hi baby. Did you miss mommy?" She nods. I smile. Seeing my kid for the first time in 3 months is amazing.

I look at the time on the clock as I awake. 6:03 AM. I put my hand over my mouth and rush to the toilet, puking. I've been puking and tired recently. I take a deep breath. I can't be, it can't be. I wait until Hunter heads off to work and take 2 pregnancy tests. I put my hand over my mouth. This time I'm not crying;I don't want to be hurt again. I don't want to be bedridden again if I find out it's a miscarriage or stillborn. I don't want to be heartbroken. I call the gynecologist. Theres the normal intro, then the setting up of the appointment. "Are there any appointments today?" "No, but there are a couple openings tomorrow." "Okay, when are they?" "10 AM and 5 PM." "My husband doesn't get off work until 4, so I'll take the 5 one." Than goes the rest of the conversation. I text Demi.

Demi?

Yeah?

I have something to tell you...

Me too you go first

The twins are getting a little sibling <3

And Catalina's getting a little sister! Oml haha

How far are you?

7 months

Wtf why am I just finding out now? I thought we were friends!

Well Wilmer and I were sorta going to keep this pregnancy a secret, we didn't want to tell you when we found out because you just went through a miscarriage. We've been keeping it a secret from our audience too, although it probably came out some way. How far along are you?

Oh. Idk just found out haha my appointment's tmw

Ok. I should go back to bed now its 4 AM here lol

Oh sorry completely forgot you went back to LA.

It's fine bye

Byeeee

I put my phone on my night stand and change into a pink romper and look at social media. A few hours later Hunter walks into our room and I stand up, kissing him. "Jeez, eager, aren't you?" I giggle. "I'm pregnant, babe." He smiles and rocks me back and forth. "Hopefully this pregnancy will go swell." I nod.

I'm only having one child, thank goodness, but here we are, at the gender reveal party. When we get up to the front I take a deep breath. "So, its been less than a year since we had one of these." I burst into tears and turn around. "I'm sorry, it's just that Damien and Delilah, they never made it. I hope this child does." I take a deep breath and Hunter and I pop the balloon. Yellow confetti comes out. "Surprise, we're quints! Nope, just kidding, what's going on here?" Demi bursts into laughter. "Just wanted to see your reaction, sorry!" She takes a different balloon up. Hunter and I pop this one. Blue confetti. I kiss Hunter. I know exactly what we're going to name him;Louis Michael.

Beware everyone, this book is coming to an end, although there will definitely be a sequel. There will be 1 or 2 more parts. <3
