Chapter Eleven

Bentley

I am walking Kayla away from the dance floor thinking of ways to convince her to be with me. I saw the look in her eyes while Cooper and Liz were saying their vows and then again while we danced together. Whether she wants to admit it or not, she wants to be loved. She was hurt and is afraid of disappointing her mom, but nonetheless she wants it. Now I just need to convince her to have faith in us.

She begins to stumble a little and I hold onto her. When she bends over I realize something isn’t right. I see her wipe blood off her inner thigh and the next thing I know she passes out in my arms.

“Fuck! Somebody call nine-one-one!” I yell while laying her down gently in the grass. As much as I want to pick her up, throw her in my vehicle, and rush her to the hospital I am afraid to move her.

Everybody circles around and somebody says that the ambulance is on the way.

“Kayla, wake up. Please baby, just open your eyes.” I send up a prayer to the man above that he keeps her close to protect her and our baby.

“Is there a pulse?” I hear Liz ask.

I place my fingers on her neck and feel it faintly. She is sweaty and all clammy but there’s a pulse.

A few minutes later the paramedics arrive and transfer Kayla onto a gurney. I explain what happened and they tell us which hospital they are taking her to.

“I’m going with you. I’m the father.” The paramedic nods ok and I hear my mom and Cooper telling me in the background they will meet us there.

When we get to the hospital, everything happens in fast forward. Kayla is wheeled into a room, still unconscious, and the doctor says that Kayla is experiencing placental abruption and she needs a C-section immediately. Because of the blood loss, I am not allowed in the surgical room and I am asked to wait in the waiting room.

I walk out to the waiting room to find my parents, and all of our friends there. They look at me waiting for me to say something and I lose it. I can feel the tears coming down as my mom’s arms wrap around me. I feel so fucking helpless.

“Bentley.” Liz calls my name. I know she is worried and the stress can’t be good for her baby.

My mom lets go of me so I can tell them the little bit that I know. “I don’t really know much. The doctor said the bleeding is from placental abruption and because of the loss of blood they are doing an emergency C-section. She was still unconscious when they took her into surgery. They wouldn’t let me go because of her condition. All we can do is wait to hear from the doctor.”

I look around to make sure the sweet little girl can’t hear all of this. “Where’s Bella?”

“Ashley is watching her.”

“I am so sorry about your wedding…”

“Stop it! Our wedding was amazing.
