Maybe In Manhattan Chapter 3. "EMILY!!" I scream at the top of my lings running out the back of my house in a bikini soaking wet. "What! What!" She says back. Wide eyed. Emily Sharpay. We met her about about 2 weeks ago when we moved in on July 6th, its July 20th. Shes 23 and lives with her Husband of 1 year, Will. Shes also 8 months pregnant with their first child, a girl, Taylor. Us girls have become really good friends. At the moment me, Maggie, Sarah, Victoria and Emily are sitting in the pool at my house. Me and Isaac have been trying for a baby since the 8th of July. I guess our plan worked. "So i was in, in, in, the bathroom" i pant out of breath from running full tilt down a flight of stairs and out to the netted in pool area. " i took a ClearBlue pregnancy test and im, im , im 10 days pregnant!. Pregnant with, with, with a baby" i say panting ready to faint from surprise." "What did you think you were gonna be pregnant with?" Maggie laughs throwing a beach ball back and forth with Victoria in the pool, "A raccoon?" "Maggie! Its not funny!" Emily says smiling and giving me a hug. Her largely pregnant belly pushing into my non existent one. We all come in for a group hug. "There are so many pregnant people!" Sarah chuckles. "Me and Victoria better hurry up!" We all laugh. All the sudden i feel liquid running down my leg. I look down. " Oh My GOD!!!" Emily says panicing. "My water just freaking broke!" Shes screaming as we try to calm her down. "But your still 6 weeks away from your due date!" I say, trying not to freak out so she will remain somewhat calm." Look, we are gonna take you to the hospital, its all gonna be ok." Maggie says as she gets on her phone calling the hospital. "Hello!" She says to whomever is on the other end. "Emily Sharpay." She continues. "Her water just broke 6 weeks early." "We will ne there in 15 minutes." "Are you having contractions?" "Yes!!" ••• 20 minutes later we are in the hospital parking lot. Will, Isaac, Mason, Tommy, and Zain meet us there. "Emily! Are you ok!" William yells, running towards us. "I just cant believe this! I'm 6 weeks from his due date!" "Its gonna be ok, babe." "What if he is not ok !" Emily says, barely being able to speak over the tesrs taking over her shaking, 5'5" body. "Babe, look at me" She looks fighting back tears. She lost her battle as tears come streaming down her cheeks onto her neck. "Isaac" i say in a hushed tone so Emily and William can have a minent of peace. "Im pregnant" I say with a small, crooked smile. It soreads and takess over my red spotted face, from crying to hard. "Babe!" Isaac says his face lighting up "Im so happy!." "Yea, i called have an appointment next week, i called though and told her when we tryed and she said the conception was probably the 10th." "Thats great!" "Which means our due date is supposed to be April 1st." ••• 10 minutes later, we are in the hospital waiting room checking Emily in. "Argggggghhhh" Emily grunts. "Im having contractions, really bad!" Emily and William and I head into the hospital room. The hospital room is beige and a little bit boring. "Ok" the nurse says, snapping on a latex glove. "We are going to put you onto the ultrasound machine" she says squirting a blue-green gel all over Emilys belly. Emily shouts and starts getting upset as she sees the baby is a breach. I excuse my self to outside, "call me when you need me!" I say. But i can still hear some of their conversation through the door. "Emily!" I hear William say. "Everything will be ok!, your in good hands." "But what if Taylor dies like Tianna did?" Emily says nervously. At that point I excuse my self to the waiting room. "Guys, the baby is a breach" i say clappjng my hands to my sides. "They are going to preform an emergency ceasarian on her if the baby doesnt turn around in less than 5 hours." "Oh my god" Maggie says jumping out of her chair. "Should we go to her!" Sarah asks. "We better not" Victoria says pulling Sarah back into her chair and motioning for Maggie to sit back down. "She is probably really upset." Victoria finishs. "All we can do is wait." And thats what we did for 4 hours. Then the nurse comes in sayimg the baby has not turned and that Emily is being rushed to an emergancy surgery right know. I hope she is ok. •••• 1 hour later William comes o the waiting room. "Taylor was born weighing 4lbs 6oz, 19 inches, her name is Taylor Katrina Sharpay." We all cry after that. The doctor then comes out. "Mom and baby are doing fine, however since the baby is so young we will have to keep her in an incubator for avout a month until she is old enough to go home." And with that a baby was born. Not just any baby. Emilys baby. And she was gonna be just fine. We all go to her in her hospital room. "How are you?" I ask. She is naked. Under a cover but you can see her stiches where she had her ceasarian done. "Im fine" she aays with a tired smile. "Just tired." "I would say so!" Victoria and Sarah say in unison. Maggie starts to say "where is the baby?" But Emily cuts her off. "Shes in the NICU." "Nobody can see her but me." "Awww that sucks!" "I know." We all were safe and happy. And our little #life was changig from being a 25 yr old having fun, working and partying. To being a wife, a mother, and a very best friend. Thank you for reading! The 4th chapter of Maybe In Manhattan is coming soon! Follow the journey to see weddings, babies, and a very intresting neighbor. Lots of Love!, Emily and Ruby.
