I woke in a strange room it was dark and all I could here was beeping it was so loud that it made my head throb I went to reach for my temple and my hand was stopped when I looked to see needles jabbed into my hand and then it all hit me what happened. And at that moment a nurse came walking into the door and said calm down you don't wanna move too much. and said you're very lucky you and your baby and the first thing I asked was how my friend was she was in the car with me. she told me that at the moment it's not looking too good that she got most of the impact. What about her babies I asked? She told me the babies were fine and that they had to be C-section removed so that they can perform surgery on the Mother. I asked who was with the babies she said the father was here. I looked at her and said Hayden??? She said no I believe he said his name was Brandon I just looked at her in confusing look when can I see her??? She told me that when I was more stronger she would take me to her but until then I had to lay here in bed. She then told me that she was gonna give me some morphine to calm my nerves that's when I looked down and saw my right hand was in a cast and I had bandages wrapped around my head due to banging my head on the steering wheel when the truck hit us. As she was walking out the door it hit me she said baby I asked her what does she mean by that I'm not pregnant. She said are you sure our lab results show that you are three and half months long? I looked at her and said there must be some mistake I'm not ready to be a mother I can't even take care of myself. She didn't looked at me and said there are other options but from where I'm at you'll be a great mother and so we can talk about it more later right now I need you to close your eyes and rest. Whatever is in that morphine started to kick in and everything went dark again. One week has passed and I have been discharged from the hospital till I get a call from Tracy letting me know that Cheyenne has finally woken up and they are finally letting me go see after three days of me being awake the nurse tried to get me to go in and see her but she started hemorrhaging and they would not let me go in saying it's for the best you don't wanna see her that way. Tracy picked me up and took me to the hospital with her both of us with smiles on our faces deep down I felt like Tracy hated me because I was the one driving I felt like this was my fault but she never showed it but the guilt was eating me alive that I could've killed my best friend at her unborn children at the time but I tried my best not to show it when I was around her she had more things to worry about than me. We finally arrived to the hospital she was sitting up in the bed talking to Brandon while holding Molly and him holding Shayne I still didn't know what that was about it was the first thing I was gonna ask her when we are alone. But right now I was so happy to see my friend smiling again even though the image of her in the car accident still kept playing an image in my head over and over again. It's about time you showed up she said looking over at me look at her isn't she precious she said while looking down at Molly I made that she said grinning ear to ear. do you wanna hold her she asked me I said of course I do I'm the godmother aren't I I said laughing as i'm reaching for Molly. Brandon then hands Shayne to Cheyenne and says I'm gonna go down to the cafeteria do you want anything? She says no but thank you for asking he then looks at Tracy and says would you like to join me well of course I'll join you says Tracy!. The minute the door closes I look over at Cheyenne I said ok so what the heck is going on here he's not the father and since when were you to an item??? We have been for a while but ever since you got with Jesse you don't seem to care about anything else. Instead of getting mad at her I just let it go and said when did it start I need details woman details.! It started about eight months ago the first night you went to Jesse's house. that night I ended up sending Heather home early because business was dead nobody was really coming in and I didn't see the point of keeping her there when I knew I can handle it myself. So after she went home Brandon came in and we started talking about old times we had together back in middle school and one thing led to another and the nights that you weren't home he was over and the nights that I went out I was over at his place. I told Brandon I was pregnant the minute he started flirting with me but he said he didn't mind he told me about how because of his work when he fell off he got electrocuted and end up making him sterile so he'll never have children. He told me that I was a blessing in disguise because all he ever wanted was a family of his own of course I told him I wasn't looking for a back up that just because there no good piece of sh** father that I just wanted someone that would love me and treat my children with the same respect. Im sorry you didn't get your knight in shining armor but if it wasn't for Jesse I never would have got Brandon eventually one day maybe Jesse will see what he missed out on. I didn't looked at her and placed my hand on my stomach saying yeah so I got some news for you too she then looked at me and said no way are you sure have you told him yet is he the father? No I am not told him yet and I probably won't he won't believe me even if I tried I think maybe it's for the best that just get rid of it i'm not fit to be a single mother like you. she then looked at me and said no matter what you do I'm right behind your decision but I want you to think hard about this before you do something crazy or you might regret later. Just then bobby walks to the door and says oh my God I was so worried about you I'm so glad you're finally awake are you feeling ok does it hurt still do you need me to get you anything? No I'm fine she says and then Tracy and Brandon are walk back into the room and body runs up to Tracy hugging her saying I'm so sorry please come back home I don't want you to leave I regret ever saying that I don't wanna hurt you anymore I'll sell the restaurant just please stay with me I don't want to face this world alone again. she then smiles and grabs his hand saying oh course I'll stay about time you realized I'm right we all couldn't help but laugh. Tracy and Bobby ended up going home after a couple of hours me and Brandon stayed back with her just watching some old TV shows on the TV Cheyenne eventually just passed out. so me and Brandon ended up talking he was telling me about the surprise he wanted to plan for her but he will need my help because he doesn't think he can do it on his own that he would give it away. I told him yeah I can help you what is it it's not a birthday or anything he said no no it's nothing like that I wanna ask her hand in marriage but I don't wanna do it here at the hospital so I need you to help me I've already asked her mother for her blessing. I looked at him saying of course I'll help you what is family for. I decided that I would go home and let those two rest now that she has him she doesn't need me around constantly. as I was walking home it was about two in the afternoon and I saw him I prayed to myself please do not let him see me please do not let him see me I said over and over again in my head trying my best not to look over at him I kept my head forward and then when I was on the verge of looking at him I decided to pull out my phone and play around with my music. But then he did the most irritating thing he started yelling hey I'm up here hello can you hear me I couldn't believe this man he treated me like garbage not that long ago and now he wants to try to talk to me what is wrong with him I thought to myself. I didn't receive a text message saying didn't you hear me I was yelling at you? I didn't reply back instead I just stuck my phone back in my pocket the minute I walked past him. I wasn't gonna go back down that road again I wasn't going to let myself get fooled by some man who just wanted to use me. I just wanted it all to be over I don't wanna do it anymore and for some reason the only thing that I could think of doing was just chopping my hair off the minute I got home I don't know why but it just made me feel like a new person The hair dye that I bought before the accident was still sitting in the bathroom in the bag I decided it's now or never. I heard my phone go off a few more times but I just ignored it I already knew who it was from what was the point of even acknowledging it. I then looked in the mirror at myself I felt like I didn't even recognize this person and it felt great I cut my hair a little past the top of my shoulders the blonde hair wasn't as blonde as I wanted but it was still somewhat blonde and then I don't know what happened I had this urge to reach down and caressed my stomach I don't know why I did this it was like some instinct in me i then realized i can't do. and at that moment all my happiness that I had for that split second went away it was now filled with tears dripping down my face.
