So lately I've been seeing a lot of Beck and Jade pregnancy stories. You know, the classic, she takes the test, sobs in Beck's arms, throws up a few times, gets kicked out of the house, has a beautiful baby and they live happily ever after. Don't get me wrong, some of those stories are really good and I love them, but I decided to add on to that and do something a little more unique that hasn't been done nearly as much as the classic pregnancy story. This idea actually came to me when I was home sick from school a few weeks ago, so after a lot of debate I finally decided to write it.

Sorry for rambling, I'll get to the point. This is pretty much a Beck and Jade baby story. Rather than focusing on the pregnancy, it will focus on their lives afterwards, raising their child. I know it sounds corny, but hopefully it will be somewhat realistic and maybe have some humor. So I really hope you like it and please review! Whether you give constructive criticism or praise, I don't care, I just want feedback! Thanks!

Disclaimer: I obviously don't own Victorious, because if I did, Liz would be singing in nearly every episode.

Happy Parents, Happier Grandparents-1 Day Old.

To: AndreH,ToriV,RobbieS,CatV

From: BeckO

Jade had her this morning. (after 10 long, long, long hours of labor.) Her name is Sophia Renee Oliver-West and she's absolutely perfect. Come visit any time but expect Jade to be grumpy. ;)

"Beck Oliver! We've been parents for less than four hours and you're already leaving me to do all the work! Get off your phone and get over here!"

"I'm coming."

Beck walks over to his girlfriend, who is holding their newborn daughter. She's fast asleep, wrapped tightly in a blanket, and has a hat that's way too big for her hiding her eyes. When you can see her face, however, she's beautiful. She has light brown hair, the same color as Jade's before she dyed it. Her eyes are blue, and her skin is pale. Jade, having given birth a few hours ago, is dressed in a hospital gown and has her hair up in a messy bun. Beck kisses Jade's forehead.

"You know, she was screaming bloody murder when they took her away to clean her up. And she hasn't made a peep since you've been holding her."

"She knows not to mess with me."

"No, she knows who you are. She loves you."

"Shut up." She holds back a smile.

Beck sits down next to Jade just as nurse, dressed in overly cheery pink scrubs, walks over to the bed.

"Hi guys. How is everything going?"

"Fine," Jade replies coolly.

"Well, I just wanted to talk about a few things with you." She hands Beck a bottle filled with formula.

"I've prepared a bottle for her. You'll want to feed her every two to four hours."

"Even at night?"

"Yes, even at night."

"So I have to wake up?"

"Um, yes, you do."

"How often do you change her diaper?"

"Whenever she needs it. Here, why don't you feed her?"

The nurse motions to Beck, who hands Jade the bottle. Sophia immediately accepts the bottle and sucks on it greedily. Beck chuckles and the nurse, satisfied, leaves.

"You know what's weird, Beck?"

"Huh?"

"She doesn't really look like an alien."

"A what?"

"An alien. I always thought that most babies looked like a combo of aliens and old men when they were first born. But ours doesn't really. She's kind of cute." He just smiles as Jade hands him Sophia so he can finish feeding her. "Hi little girl," he coos to her. Jade tells him not to baby talk and he sighs.

"Ms. West, Mr. Oliver, you have visitors."

Jade is expecting to see a perky red head bouncing through the door, but instead it's Beck's parents. They'd been at the hospital since Jade's labor started, but after seeing Sophia they had left to get lunch. Mrs. Oliver, who had started insisting on Jade calling her Julia, ran up to Beck and kissed him on the cheek. "There's the proud dad! Oh, you're feeding her? I need to get a picture!"

Jade holds back an eye-roll as she pulls out her phone. When Julia and Beck's dad, Mike, found out about the pregnancy, they had the classic talk with the couple about how they were disappointed in them, but were still going to support their decision to keep the baby, blah-blah. And then suddenly, in the last few months of pregnancy, Julia got more involved and more excited. She would come back with three new outfits for the baby every day, most of which Jade would return because of their color. And now the woman was obsessed with taking pictures of the poor child, and wanted to hold her every minute she could.

Jade's parents, on the other hand, were a different story. Her father had flat out told her "Don't expect me to be a grandparent to this baby, and don't come crying to me when you can't afford to take care of it." Her mother hadn't been overly upset by the pregnancy, but devastated by Jade's decision to move in with Beck when she was born.

Jade was on good terms with her mother, Mae, now, but that didn't mean she always got along with her. She had stayed for about an hour after Sophia was born and then taken off to go to work. (That's pretty much all she ever does.)

Jade watches as Julia begs Beck to hand over Sophia. He does, but not without an audible sigh. Mike hands Beck a paper bag from Subway, because Jade specifically requested "real food" instead of "hospital garbage." She barely has time to murmur a thank you as she digs in.

"So, when did the doctor say you'll be going home?"

"The doctor says she's really healthy and I'm recovering well so far, so as long as it stays that way we can go home tomorrow night."

"Well, I know it will be a challenge for you, but I can always help you guys learn everything you need to know. Remember, I've had two children."

"Yeah, I know. Uh, can I have my baby back now?"

Beck shoots her a look but she ignores it, and Julia doesn't seem to mind handing the sleeping newborn back to Jade. Beck notices how Jade stares at Sophia in amazement, and how her mouth twitches into a small smile as Sophia yawns and stretches out her tiny fingers. She'll make a good mom. She may not be a normal one, but she'll be a good one. While he takes out his phone to snap a picture of Jade admiring their daughter, Cat and Tori come running into the room.

"Oh my gosh! She's here, she's actually here! This is so exciting!" Cat grabs Beck's arm and bounces up and down happily. Beck pats her back. "Do you wanna hold her?"

"Yes, yes, a thousand times yes!"

"Okay. But maybe you should sit down. You know, so you don't drop...I mean, so it would be more comfortable for you."

Jade smirks as Beck gently takes Sophia and hands her to Cat.

"She's adorable, you guys," Tori says, immediately starting to take pictures. "Andre and Robbie are gonna try and come later."

"No hurry," Jade mutters.

"Beck, honey, I think we're going to hit the road. You just call us if you need anything, okay? We'll be back tomorrow. Are you sleeping here tonight?"

"Yeah, if Jade wants me to. I'll see you later."

Of course she has to take another picture before leaving with Mike.

Shortly afterwards, Tori and Cat leave, and the nurses take Sophia for a quick check up. Beck is starting to drift off to sleep on the couch, and he thinks Jade is too, when she suddenly sits up.

"Beck!"

"What? What is it? Are you okay?"

"I...I'm still fat."

"You're what?"

"I'm not skinny."

"Jade, you don't lose all your weight when the baby comes."

"It's like I have a giant baby bump all over again!"

"Honey, if you just eat right and stuff, you'll be back to your skinny self eventually."

"Honey? Did you just call me honey?"

Even Beck isn't sure where that one came from.

"I guess I did."

"What, we have a baby and we're suddenly old?"

He has a feeling this is not going to be easy.

That was the first day of little Sophia's life! I realize it was kind of short, but it was just a prologue. I wanted to see how you guys like this story before I continue. Please review! It makes me so happy to see review alerts in my inbox. Thank you for reading!
