NICK'S POV

"Can I talk to her? Could you hand her the phone?" I startled.

I began hearing my own heart beating fast inside my chest. I'm nervous?

Maybe.

Yes.

Who am I kidding?

I am nervous.

"She's on her labor right now. She's asking you where you are." The nurse tells me.

I sigh.

She knows I'm in England. Damn it Dakota. Why did you have to deliver your baby while I'm here?

"I want him to come hoooooome!!!! Arghhhh!!!" I hear Dakota yelling from the background.

I put my palm over my forehead.

"Tell him. To. Coooome. Hooooooome!" She yells again.

"She knows I'm in England." I whined.

I hear Dakota yelling again.

"I can't come home right away. I'm still at the party." I tell the nurse.

"Sir? I couldn't hear you well." The nurse's struggle hearing my voice over Dakota's scream.

I sigh. Of course she couldn't hear me. All I could hear right now is Dakota's hysterical voice.

"Hand her the phone." I demanded.

Finally I hear Dakota's scream growing and growing stronger. Now I know she's closer until I hear her screaming at me. "Get fucking home now!!"

I pulled my phone away from my ear and put it back. "Dakota." I called out.

"Listen." I tell her again but she's not even listening to me. All she ever cared about was her screaming and her pain.

"Listen to me." But I couldn't even hear my own voice coming to her.

"Dakota!" I try to call out her name.

"Nick!! Arghhhh!" All I hear was her screams and I couldn't calm her down.

Damn it. I pulled the phone away from my ear because it's already hurting. "Is someone there with you? Dakota! Stop screaming for fuck's sake!"

I hear her calming down now but I'm sure she'll blow up anytime soon. I know that she was still crying for pain but calmer than a while ago. Goodness, what does labor even mean and how hurtful would that be? I don't know how painful that is but it's really killing Dakota right now. She sounds dying.

"Dakota! Answer me!" Useless. She's still crying peacefully.

"Is someone with you?!" I demanded an answer. I'm even more pissed.

She cries.

I waited for an answer from her as I listen to her crying.

I exhale.

"Yes.... There is. Two maids and the butler..." She sounds calm.

"Arghh!!!" She screams again.

"They're outside." She whimpers while saying it weakly.

I exhaled. "Good."

"Come home!" She yells.

"Dakota. England isn't just next door from New York! Get to your senses! What do you want me to do? Get my cape and become superman?"

She cries even louder and starts screaming again. I could hear the pain from her voice and I honestly pity her too but she knows I couldn't get back there as soon as I could even if I try to. When I come back home, she'll already deliver the baby. And I really really hate it when she becomes this hysterical though it's understandable that she's in pain.

Suddenly she calls out my name more and she gets louder and louder. I quickly pulled my phone away from my ears. Goodness she does want me to go deaf. I scratched my hair and I don't know what to do right now. I'm stuck in between going back to New York and staying here because Savannah is here.

"Mr. Wilde she does want you to come home." I hear the nurse now and I think she's holding the phone.

"She says she won't deliver the baby out if you're not here." She adds.

I sigh. Goodness Dakota! You're giving me a headache right now.

"Alright." I say.

"I'm on my way to the airport." I added despite the fact that I want to tell her it's not my baby but I couldn't.

I don't really care about Dakota if she won't deliver it out if I won't be there but you can't deny the fact that I'm nervous for her even if it's not mine. As if I have a choice right? I know I have to go back home because I know how hard headed she is.

"Tell Dakota I'm coming back home." But I honestly I don't wanna leave.

I ended the call and started looking for Savannah. I started heading out of the garden planetarium and began calling her name. I hated the fact that I have to go back to New York because my fake wife is about to deliver her baby. Goodness I really hate it so much just thinking about leaving Savannah here when I haven't even enjoyed much time with her just yet.

"Savannah?" I finally found my way out of the garden planetarium.

To be honest, I almost got lost because of the darkness filling the entire place and I honestly didn't enjoy the planetarium much because it ended soon. I should've kissed her. Damn it. I know I should have kissed her. It was one of the most romantic places where I could be with Savannah.

"Where are you Savannah?" I ask myself as I walk along the hallway.

I kept walking and finally found the bathroom. Female, it reads.

I put my hands inside my pockets and waited for her to come out. I leaned my back against the wall and waited. I was thinking of what I was going to say to Savannah that I'm going to leave right now when I don't want to go anyways. I take a long while to find the right words to say to her but then I end up without a thing inside my head because I really don't want to go.

I pull my hand up and stare at my watch. "What's taking her so long?"

Is she even in here? I'm sure she is. It's the nearest bathroom around here. I try to knock again but there's no response. I knock again. No response.

"Savannah?" I called out as I keep on knocking. "Savannah are you in there?"

No response.

"Savannah?" I called out again.

Damn it. Where could she be?

As I was about to walk away, I hear someone grunting.... Inside the bathroom? I'm not really sure where it is coming from but then as I listen to it, I noticed that it's Savannah. My eyes widened and rushed back to the bathroom. I knocked continuously.

"Savannah?" I called out.

"Oh my god! Oh my god!" I hear her.

Without second thoughts I opened the restroom not thinking if there were other female inside. I barged into the door and rushed inside then looked for every cubicle, finally I saw her. I stared at her, she was holding her stomach and water was coming out in between her thighs. My eyes widened over what I saw.

"Shit. You're peeing.... A lot." I say.

"I'm not!" She yells back.

I stare at her longer and that water gushed. There was a huge puddle beneath her. It doesn't smell like pee as well and we were the only ones inside the bathroom. I began to panic.

"My... my water broke!" She exclaims.
