Sweet Little Lies

Its Okay

Evangeline~

I don't know if I just have the worst luck in the world, or i completely jinxed myself, but things are not fine.

Like, at all.

Grey is half way across the country from me right now, and these triplets decided to make their grand debut, now.

I called Grey, and he's going to come as soon as he can. But I don't think he'll get here soon enough. Things are not looking good.

"Evangeline, we have some, unsettling news," The nurse, Lucy, tells me. I look over at my mom, and Paige. I'm horrified as to what may come from her mouth.

"We need to get these triplets out, now. We were looking, and one of their heartrates is very low, and continues to decrease." My heart races. Fuck.

"I don't want to do this without grey." I say, on the verge of tears.

"Eva if we don't do this, there's a very high chance
that one of you children will not make it." She tells me.

"But- But Grey he needs to be here. I don't want to do this without him." I sob.

"Evangeline, i know it's scary, but I promise you, it's safer this way."

"Do I have time to call Grey?" I question.

"Would you be okay calling him while we prepare you for a C- Section?"

"Eva i'm coming I swear I'm trying to hard to get there, and I'm sorry I shouldn't have left and you,"

I can't help but cry, this news is absolutely going to shatter Grey.

"Hey it's okay. It's not your fault. But um- I have to have them now, we can't wait any longer. One of their heart rates is dropping, rapidly." I tell him.

"What?"

"I'm sorry Grey. I'm so so sorry,"

"No it's not your fault. I'm going to get there as soon as I can. Go and do what's best for our kids Evangeline. It's going to be okay." He tells me through the phone.

I feel like i'm suffocating. Like this is all some terrible dream that I'll wake up from, and everything will be okay.

Grey will be here, our children will be okay, and this isn't even a decision I'd be making.

"I love you." I mutter, before hanging up.
