I couldn’t believe how quickly the pregnancy had gone, seven months and only two left until I gave birth to my beautiful little boy. We had decided to find out the sex so we could make plans. Although we were worried about having a boy, don’t get me wrong; just because me and Katie were both women didn’t mean he would be any different. We were just worried that we would be able to help him with things he would normally go to a father with. We had asked Jordan to be god father, so our precious little boy will always have someone to go to should he need it.1
Katie was out at work while I say with my feet up in bed relaxing on my first day of maternity leave. My stomach swelled to the size of a whale causing me to waddle around the house more then walk. But I found that I didn’t care in the slightest, I was truly happy to be my rounded self; knowing that at the end of it all, I would have a gorgeous son to love.2
As I started reading one of my books, my eyes grew heavier; the words blurring in front of me as my mind shut down and I was pulled into a peaceful sleep. 3
I shot up in my bed, a noise from the landing having disturbed my rest; I struggled to quietly get out of bed, my stomach weighing me down. I picked up Katie’s baseball bat as I left the room, carefully pushing the handle down to create as little noise as possible. I stepped out not seeing anyone but still staying quiet and alert just in case. 4
A door opened behind me, I spun round seeing the face of my oldest brothers looking back at me as I lost my balance. My mind stopped working as I fell, not fully understanding the danger to me and my baby until I reached the bottom. My hands wrapping around my swollen stomach protectively as pain coursed through my body. 5
All I remember of the next few moments is of my brother stepping over me and heading towards the door, I feel into sleep once more, brought on by the pain.6
“Nai can you hear me?” I blinked open my eyes, seeing Katie looking down on me, it felt like it had all been a dream. Like I was just waking up from the coma again; but I knew I wasn’t, there was still the bump of my stomach hidden by the bed covers.7
“The baby? His okay..” I saw her face drop and her eyes starting to water up causing mine to do the same. “His gone, I can’t feel him there anymore. I’m empty.” So all my happiness came crashing down around me; but it was expected to happen at some point.8
People should be thankful that they have a loving family surrounding them. Should be happy that they get nagged until they clean their room, or to be careful when they leave the house. I never had any of that. I always felt like I didn't truly belong, like I was never actually wanted. Yet I am thankful that the world has shown me how harsh it can truly be. I’ve lost all the chance of finding happiness in this lifetime, so with these last words I say goodbye as I pass into the next world.9

wow, that was awesome. You have a great nack for writing all the emotional stuff. And the ending was totally unpredictable, and written awesomely. Like how you didn't give her the typical happily ever after, which is a shame but I guess that's what makes this piece real unique.

Very sad ending... but the story was very good. I think you can change the background, it is a bit difficult to read.
-
aaaaaamazing your such a good writer. i came from an abusive family Nd the way you described her emotions and everything is perfect
-
oh and yeah, improve the font color!
-
Awww...that's horrible. It's also terribly anti-climatic. I don't think you should have put that brother back into frame especially now that all her troubles were over. Change the ending pleeeeasssseee!!!
And for passing onto the next world, does that mean she dies? Nooooo!!!

Awww.... I actually did cry. I'm a jerk so it's hard to make me cry with something like this... You're amazing Scati. Just.. totally amazing.

This is so touching and sad. Thanks for a beautiful write.

Awwww, no, no, can't believe it ends just like that!
Excellent job, Staci, loved the whole story, it's full of emotion, experience, and the dramatic realism, and your style's awesome. The shortened version of the finale was indeed a bit disappointing, but i loved it still. Your message is delivered really well - be happy for what you have, care for each-other, love each-other. And it's really beautiful. Thanks.

NOOO!!!!!!!!!
Aww staci, I'm crying! Literally! The last time I cried like this was when I found out that all my pets were dying. That day still haunts me.
I can't help but say that you are an excellent writer, and through my tears, you have inspired me and my alter ego. If my soul could tell me anything, it would be speaking right now. I can hear it whispering that I have a life, I can live it the way I want.
Your story has helped me to understand my own life better. It was just a really touching storythat jerked me until tears flooded from my eyes.
Well done- I hope you keep writing in this sense- not nessicarily this story but in this sense.
Awesome Job, Staci.

You've brought me to tears! (In a good way.) This is so sad...
Its a little annoying being my face is really hot, and my tears streaming down my face are warm. It feels weird...XD My face is hot, because of the weather here.
As soon as she fell, I knew the baby would be gone.. Oh god, I can't get over it...its so sad!
God how I LOVED THIS!:
People should be thankful that they have a loving family surrounding them. Should be happy that they get nagged until they clean their room, or to be careful when they leave the house.

Its so true!
Anyways, I think i've made my point.
Love Always,
