A New Family Member

He should have gone in there... He shouldn't let her do this alone.

But of course, Susan insisted she was fine.

Jackson paced nervously as he awaited for the news. They had been waiting for so long! In all truthfulness... The man was getting overly frustrated and angsty.

What was taking so long?

Was there complications?

He had waited months for this moment!

Jackson let out a frustrated groan, shifting on his heel and plopping down on the uncomfortable stiff chair. Which in turn caused people in the waiting room to look at him in slight concern and worry.

But Jackson didn't even notice, too caught up in his own thoughts.

The American had dreamt up many names for their new addition to the family. They didn't know what gender they were getting either, not wanting to be picky about it.

But of course, his wife had the final say in wanting one, and the name.

His beautiful, stubborn, sexy, British wife. She hadn't even wanted something that would be dependent and demand all their attention in the beginning. Although, as Jackson exposed her more to the idea he had swayed her mind and her heart.

"Excuse me sir... You cannot smoke in here."

Jackson hadn't even noticed he had pulled a cigarette from his pocket and was in the process of lighting it.

Slowly he lowered it from his lips and gave a tight, nervous smile. "Sorry." He said a bit embarrassed. Of course he couldn't smoke in here! Stupid Yankee...

"Jackson."

Her sweet voice floated through the air, and he looked to her quickly, standing. "Susan..."

The woman smiled, a tired look on her face and their new loving addition in her arms, already asleep.

"He's very heavy..." She laughed, the sound making Jackson's heart soar.

"Oh my god he is... He..." Jackson quickly moved to the two, gently stroking his wife's cheek and smirking. "He's fat!"

Susan laughed once more before wincing. "Can you please carry our boy?"

At those words, Jackson almost squealed. He quickly adjusted his arms, holding the puppy close to his chest and against his shoulder. "What's his name?" He asked, rubbing the chubby huskies' back, the puppy still asleep and snuggling into Jackson's collar.

"Sushi, I think. His old owner overfed him sushi, therefore they named him that." Susan answered, a slight wince still on her face. It truly wasn't all fluff...

Jackson was smirking still. Gently petting his new dog. "I like it... Sushi. Our fat puppy."

Susan rolled her eyes. She was already regretting this decision, now... She would have two puppies...

Jackson looked to her, his eyes just as hyper as Sushi's would be when he got home and created chaos.

"Hey darlin'...Maybe we can get a baby next!"
