Ari had been blessed with the chance to sleep a little. She had hoped that the contractions had been braxton hicks contractions like she read about in the book. She wished she had only dreamed her water breaking. She was in no way ready. She had taken no classes, had no husband or even boyfriend for that matter, and all she had was some handme down books. She was up shit creek and had a hole in her boat.
She woke up a few hours later and closer to morning. She hated everything right now. Her body, her situation, and the fucking muggy heat of Florida. Even with the A/C going it was still hot as hell. Or maybe it was the fact that she was preparing to spring forth life from her own body.
She was propped up on the bed in Jake's bungalow. She felt bad that her yelling woke up Delphi but she was glad her best friend was there to support her. Sweat beading on her forhead she gripped Dels hand tightly and groaned loudly as another strong contraction came. It felt a hundred times worse than cramps. She also felt nauseous. She didnt want to admit it to her friends but was more than just scared. She was a deeper level of sadness than she could put into words. She wanted Chris. She to share this with him.
She squeezed Del's hand again. Her groan turned into a yell. " God motherfucking dammit it fucking hurts! I cant do it!"
