Spencer's Crazy Life

Today is the day that Spencer Hastings has been dreaming of her whole life. Today, she is getting married to the love of her life, Toby Cavanaugh. Spencer's bridesmaids are her best friends, Emily, Hanna, and Aria. Her maid of honor is her sister, Melissa Hastings. Spencer is very excited to finally be married to Toby. Mostly because she loves him so much, but also because she is pregnant with his child. She is so happy that they are going to become a family.

They came up with a name for the baby. They decided that if it was a girl, it would be Katy. If it was a boy, it would be Brayden. Spencer is 8 months pregnant and her due date is coming up pretty soon.

Spencer's mom peaked in her room. "Hey honey. It's time for you to walk down the aisle." She said.

"Okay mom. Let's do this." Spencer answered.

They both walked out of the dressing room and went to the front of the Rosewood church. They started playing 'Here Comes the Bride'. Spencer was walking down the aisle gracefully. She has a gigantic baby bump and has that pregnant glow. She was smiling away but she was so nervous. The church was beautiful. It was decorated with so many flowers. When she saw Toby, her face lit up like a kid lighting up a jack-o-lantern. Toby looked so happy. Spencer thought that he looked so handsome in that tuxedo.

She was in front of Toby now. The pastor started the ceremony.

They were about to say the "I dos" and Spencer's water broke in front of everybody. Everybody gasped. Toby looked at Spencer and said, "I think it's time to go to the hospital now Spencer."

"No no. This can't be happening," Spencer said.

"Spencer, this is happening. We have to cancel the wedding and go to the hospital now," Toby said calmly to her.

"No. My due date is in two weeks," Spencer said.

Spencer's mother came up to them while everybody was concerned. "Spencer, we need to go to the hospital now," Spencer's mother said. "This isn't up for discussion. Your baby is coming very soon. You need to cancel the wedding and we can do this some other day. Everybody is concerned and we need to go now. Do you understand me?"

"Toby, can you go outside and get the car? We really need to rush her to the hospital before the real pain comes." Spencer's mom continued.

"Okay," Toby answered and turned to Spencer. "I'll be right back. Hang in there." Toby kissed her and went to go get the car.

Her friends came up to her and so did her sister. They were all talking at the same time, wondering if she was okay and if she was having any contractions. All Spencer could think about is "What's going to happen to the baby if I don't make it to the hospital on time?" and "Is this wedding ever going to happen after the baby is born?" She couldn't even think of the answers anymore. She started to get some serious contractions and just wanted to lie down.

"Spencer," her mother said, "Toby is outside. Let's go."

Spencer started to walk as fast and careful as she could but she needed help. Toby hopped out of the car and went inside the church. He saw how much she was struggling to walk, so he went to her and tried to pick her up. She weighed a ton, but he managed to pick her up, bring her to the car, and sit her down. She was in so much pain, but it came and went away. Her contractions were about 5 minutes apart.

Toby was driving Spencer and her mother to the hospital. He put on some of Spencer's favorite music to try and calm her down. After watching so many baby shows and baby movies, he knows how cranky pregnant women can get when they are in labor. "Are you okay Spencer?" Toby asked.

"Of course I'm not okay," Spencer answered. "We were supposed to get married before the baby came. These contractions hurt like hell. I was totally embarrassed at the church. Everything isn't going as planned."

"Come on, Spencer. Everything is fine. We can get married after the baby is born and starts to walk so that he or she can be part of the wedding. When we get to the hospital, they can take care of the contractions. Plus, it's all a part of child birth. And you weren't embarrassed at the church. Everyone knew what was going on. They wanted to help you, not laugh at you because your water broke." Toby tried to calm her down.

They arrived at the hospital and got a private room. The nurse came in to check on her. "Hello Miss Hastings. You have dilated 6 centimeters. You don't have that much longer to go. Do you want an epidural or a natural birth?"

"I want a natural birth." Spencer said. Her mother and Toby looked at her with concerned eyes.

"Okay." The nurse said. She left the room.

"Spencer," her mother said to her in a convincing tone. "Are you sure you don't want an epidural? It will help you with most of the pain that you are having now."

"I'm sure mom. I can handle this." But the truth is, she was in so much pain that she felt like she was going to pass out. She wanted to deal with the pain because her mother was in the room and she wanted to please her in any way possible. She knows this isn't the way but she just can't help but think that her mother loves Melissa more than her. She can't stand it when people don't like her, especially her own family.

It has been an hour when the nurse from earlier returned to check on Spencer. "Okay," the nurse said, "it's time for you to start pushing. You are 10 centimeters dilated. Let me just go get the doctor."

"Okay." Spencer said. Spencer was extremely scared but wanted to get this baby out. She had so much pressure on her that it hurt. She was in so much pain. She was wondering why the nurse had to get the doctor and why the doctor should've been the one checking on her more frequently.

The doctor came in the room and sat right in front of her. The nurse from before walked in. They told her to put her legs up. Toby and the nurse were holding her legs out so that the baby can come out more easily with the doctor guiding it through.

She started to push. She was pushing for 10 minutes.

Then they finally had their baby girl. They named her Katy Alexis Cavanaugh.

She was tiny. She had 10 fingers and 10 toes. She had Toby's eyes. She actually looked a lot like Toby. Hopefully, she has Spencer's brain capacity.

Spencer loves her so much, from the moment she came out of her. All of that pain that she had didn't matter. When she held her, she looked up at her and smiled. When Toby held her, she could see him crying silently. When Spencer's mother saw her, she was starting to cry also. That surprised Spencer because she didn't think she had even a little bit of sympathy inside of her.

She loves Katie and will protect her no matter what. She will never let anything happen to her.
