Ramon
The weeks went by quickly and I stayed at Celestia's side like a thorn on a rose. She got very irritable at every little thing and I tried to soothe her pain and frustration as best as I could. My poor baby. If I could take the pain away I would. At this very moment, I curse Adam and Eve.
"Ramon, I'm hungry again. Why am I so damn hungry? I'm gonna gain weight- and why the hell is my feet so big? No one told me that I was gonna go up an entire shoe size. I don't want to do this anymore I can't-"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwhglizbaOe
"Hey, hey, you're fine. You're doing fine. Just a few more days. Here, come sit down and I'll make you some food. Whatever you want." I whisper as I hold her tightly.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaDvVneIE0
She looks up at me and sighs.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwWdEBIzBOV
"Eggs. All I want is eggs. It's the only thing I can eat right now that won't make me throw up."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWV8LZtzZeH
"I'll make you a plate of scrambled eggs, does that sound good?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2o33b2zz5
"Yes, it does, and thank you. No one asked you to put up with my moods."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpwJgwaBZ75
"I'm not putting up with anything darling. Your ready to give birth any day now, I don't blame you."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9UCJixjqPY
I kiss her forehead and take her to the library to have her lay on the couch. Then I go back to the kitchen to start her eggs.
When I finish her eggs, I bring the plate over to her with a fork and she immediately digs into it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUDHxeGC4yL
I chuckle slightly and make my way back to clean up.
"Are you finished, my love?" I ask as I walk back into the library.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrV02XRf6bS
"Yeah, I am. I feel a little better." she smiles.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5sRq7uvMKY
I nod and take the plate from her to go and wash it. Mid washing, I hear a piercing scream of agony from Celestia and I drop everything, rushing to her in seconds.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9zWIjQh9d0
"What's wrong?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhtbF0emMTX
"C-Contrac-Shit!" She yells out as she tries to get up from the couch.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoCdAO4aS9q
"Sit, honey," I say trying to soothe her as I look at my watch, mentally counting the seconds.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDpodLldof
After a minute had passed, I looked down at Celestia. Her eyes were closed, and she was breathing hard.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDIwedD2QX
"That shit hurt like a bitch." she groans. "Now my back hurts."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAhCiyqM7e
"Darling," I softly say as I move a few hair strands out of her face. "We could possibly be having our little girl today." I smile.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjyitubCttu
She looks up at me and smiles back before she shuts her eyes close again.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyKSXa8iVo2
"God, how nice would that be." she sighs. "I'm not one to tolerate pain much these days. I don't know how long I can take this anymore."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwWtDy977a
"You're doing great, my love. I wish I could transfer the pain from you to me."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f1AIKafFR
"I know, I know, I'm just saying that cause I'm exhausted."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcL9ydoE1Y
"I know this is hard for you. I can't imagine doing all this." I sigh as I sit next to her. I twist her so that her back faces me and I start to rub at the tenseness in her back with my thumbs.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEU4odnk3v
"Mm, that feels good." she happily groans as she lays onto me. "I'm so tired I just want to sleep but for some reason, I can't."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBqdRvkryQw
"Well how about laying on me. Try to see if you can sleep. I'll be right here." I say soothingly combing my hand through her hair.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVVbLyvAee7
"I'll try but I know I won't be able to."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCOPPjIklf3
"Just try," I whisper and tilt her back to my chest. She closes her eyes and I pull her hair back from her face. The sound of her breathing is calming but it doesn't last. She jerks up and moans in pain again.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ZqvF7isLV
"Another one?" says Madeline as she enters the room with my mother and Lilly in tow.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYtJGMYEqkQ
"Y-ye-Ahh! H-how long h-has it been s-since the f-first?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI4bYsZ9Mho
I check my watch. "Four minutes. We need to get you to the hospital."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjqfXwBif5J
"It hasn't been an hour yet."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrtR3Ve53XM
"Your contractions are four minutes apart. I want to make sure that you and our little girl are safe, well, and in good hands. We have to go, my love," I say as I take her hand.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6YhEm9HVX
The second I place her hands in mine, I can feel her shaking.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gP9RIM3QO
"You're shaking, Darling are you okay?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlvOKUMik1l
She looks up at me and I see the slight quiver in her lips and her eyes turn glassy.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIgwvRTXbV
"Hey, what's wrong? Baby talk to me." I say, pulling her in close.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNfwgTCJyN
"I'm s-scared. I'm not ready. I can't do this Ramon."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVOMtwEwne5
"Listen, you are one of the strongest women I know. You're giving life to a human being. I'd be scared too if I was in your shoes. But I'm gonna be there with you every second, and we're gonna have a beautiful baby girl, and she's gonna look like you, and we can go on our trips to Disney, and we'll spoil our princess rotten." I whisper to her. She smiles and places her head on my chest and sighs.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklESiEMxE7
"You got this Celestia, be that powerful bad bitch I know you are!" replies Lilly as she hugs her from the side.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1lv9vNfa0S
"Alright, someone please grab my hospital bag; and let's have this baby."
__________
"Yes, we're in the hospital right now, she's about 5 centimeters dilated. About to get an epidural. I need you to make sure no one knows which hospital we're in. I'm not dealing with the paparazzi today. My number one priority is my fiancé and my baby. Yes. Thank you, James."
I walk back inside of the room and I see them placing the plastic on her back and then putting the needle up her back. I move to face her and take her hands in mine as she slightly winces.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT41vrhSWdm
"You're doing great my Queen," I whisper to her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdV73m6iWFz
She nods, eyes still closed, and squeezes my hand tighter.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF0rYUv2bJl
"Hey sweetie, how are you doing?" her mother asks after placing herself next to me.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT9vi2SAQ9d
Celestia opens her eyes and slightly smiles.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPbVdIgUPO
"I'm just ready for this numbing medicine to kick in and this baby to come out."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLzzsJdYnn
Her mom chuckles. "I hear ya," she replies before she sits on the seat in the corner. Entwining her fingers and placing them on her crossed knees.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd5vRZwujLm
"Babe?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBcogdwRLg
"Yes, my queen?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbkEimiIxkb
"If I yell at you, I'm sorry."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjrHFM1r54
"If that's what it takes to make you feel any better then yell at me all you want." I smile as I kiss her forehead.
__________
"Alright, mama push, a few more. She's almost out."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkoKHlDXIfC
Celestia squeezes her eyes as her grip on my hand tightened to the point where I couldn't feel my fingers. She groans and grunts as she pushes and she moves herself to lean onto me, propping herself up more so that it caused her to be under less pressure.
Soon the cries of our little girl rings around the room.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ8SPilIlu1
"You did it darling, she's here."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3VJ5NVUMfL
"F-finally. May I hold her?" she breathes out in a rush.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSi5wDukFhB
The doctor nods and a nurse hands her over to Celestia.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ru5HWpSPw
"Hi, hello, aren't you just adorable,"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb04pjlgi3B
"She is, isn't she, I told you she was gonna look like you," I say.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡttOnQJDpi7
"Yeah, but look. She has your eyes, and n-nose..."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pwfQ6ZslO
Celestia clutches her chest tightly.
The monitor next to her starts beeping.
The baby is being taken from her by a nurse.
The doctor rushes to her side to feel her pulse.
"What is going on?!" I ask as I look at the doctor.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTeWbhF5EaV
"She seems to be having a stroke."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKsNgXWlrNL
"What? H-how?"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeipd2zjlYB
"Sir, we need you to leave the room." says a nurse beside me.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSDwvoZ9lO7
"No. There's no way in hell I'm leaving her side."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfU4qObXuXf
"But sir were-"300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMYTBFeRMWJ
"No. I don't want to hear it." I say a little too harshly. "Stay with me baby please, I can't lose you."300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXfSBCPeWOc
