SOPHIE'S POV
" Stay strong!" I inhaled. The babies were ready, they were pushing, eager to get out.
" It's okay, little ones," I soothed.
I then grunted.
" Push, push!" I chanted to myself.
Very slowly, I knew. It was going to be okay. It HAD to.
" ARHHHHHHHHH!" I screamed.
And then it happened.
A single wail.
" Wahhhh!"
Then silence. I didn't dare breathe.
" Wah." It more quiet, very faint.
" Wa." Even fainter this time. I leaned forward and the sight of my babies made me gasp.
One was bright and cheery. I could see that already.
The other one.......it seemed.....
I shuddered, and picked it up tenderly.
It was hardly breathing. I put a single finger by it's heart. The beat was faint, but still there.
" I breathe life into you, little baby." It was stupid but obviously something was wrong with it.
The baby didn't move.
" No." My own word got stuck in my throat.
" Please please please no."
" No." The single word became a plea.
" No. No!!!!" My voice became a wail.
" Please don't die." I whispered to my baby.
The other baby was rolling around slightly in the little nook my legs had made. I placed a hand on it so it wouldn't roll off the bed.
" Don't die."
