Trial of Angela II

Disclaimer: I don't own Walker, Texas Ranger or any of its characters… I'm just borrowing them for the story.

Summary: Alex has the baby she was carrying in the first part and the Trivettes have some news

A/N: This story is going to be very different from my other stories. Each chapter will be from a different point of view. Also I'm not spending much time on the birth because I want this to be more of a Trivette and Erika fiction

It was four weeks until Alex's due date but the Walkers were taking all the caution they could. They weren't taking any chances after the entrance Angela made into the world.

Alex was only putting in a few hours at the HOPE center and Walker only worked until lunch. Then he picked Alex up at the HOPE center and they went back to the ranch. Alex was barely allowed alone.

Except for the incident with Matt Reager, the pregnancy was normal and Alex hoped the delivery would be normal as well.

One week before the due date Alex woke up and felt sore all over. Her back ached, her feet ached and her legs too. There wasn't much relief; lying down helped a little but a dull, faint ache was still present.

Walker heard Alex stir and groan. He rolled over and put his arm around her. "Still have those aches and pains Alex?"

"Oh Walker, I'm not sure how much longer I can tolerate this. It hurts, no matter what I do. I just can't wait for this to be all over." Alex was close to tears.

"Shh, Alex. It's almost over. It could be over any day now. You know what the doctor said."

"I know Walker but it was never this bad with Angela," Alex sniffled.

"Okay well we should probably start getting up."

Later that day at the HOPE center, Alex was listening in on Josie reading the children their morning story when she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen that made her nearly double over. This action did not go unnoticed by Josie.

"Alex, are you okay?"

"Josie, I think you should call Walker."

Without another word, Josie rushed out and called Walker.

"Walker."

"Walker, it's Josie from the HOPE center. Umm I think Alex is going into labor."

"Okay Josie I'm on my way."

Josie had Alex sitting in a chair when Walker arrived. "Alex…"

"Walker, it's time. I need to go to the hospital NOW!!"

On the way there, Walker called Trivette, Erika, Gage and Sydney. They call agreed to meet them at the hospital as soon as they could and within an hour, they were all waiting outside Alex's room. Sydney, who was still on maternity leave, picked up Angela from school and now the six-year-old couldn't stop bouncing up and down. "My little brother is coming!" she kept chanting.

Thankfully Alex dilated quickly and within the next hour she gave birth to a beautiful baby boy. A very proud Walker went out to give the "family" the wonderful news. He took Angela into the room with him, promising the others they could come in in a few minutes.

When they walked in, the scene before them was precious. Angela was sitting next to her mother, holding her baby brother with Walker practically beaming down at them.

Alex looked up and saw everyone. "Guys," she said, "meet Chester David Walker."

"Oh Alex," Erika squealed, "he's so adorable."

"You can definitely tell he's Walker's son," Gage laughed, "look at all that hair."

"Okay guys, we should probably go. Alex needs her rest." Sydney knew just how Alex was feeling right now. So they all gave their congratulations one more time and then quietly left.
