Family and Love or Fame and Los

Chapter 1: Welcome Ryann

Shane's Point of View

It is currently 3:23am January 25th and I have a screaming in pain Mitchie clutching my hand and I sleepy fussy Jadyn in my other arm who was unthankfully taken out of his bed so early in the morning. We step into the white lit up hospital as Mitchie lets out another scream as I try to get her to sit in a wheelchair.

I was woke up to a painful squeal in my ear 45 minutes ago as Mitchie felt her water broke letting me know our second child was about to come. I was excited but also in a rush to do many things which aren't normally done at 2:00 in the morning. I got up helping her up grabbing her night bag as she started carefully down the stairs. I got Jadyn changed and into my arms with his diaper bad. We all got into the car and that is how we are at the hospital now.

I finally get her sitting down Jadyn in his car seat hanging from my other hand. I push Mitchie as fast as I can to the maternity ward as I nurse hears her whimpers as they set her up in a room so she can get fully dilated even though her screams would seem like she already would be. Since I was to go in the room with her the nurses lets me bring Jadyn to this little nursery where nurses were looking after other children when their mothers were having other children.

I went in carrying the sleepy Jadyn as I put him in one of the cribs and made sure he was asleep before I checked with the nurses and then left going into the room with Mitchie. She was having contractions every 10-15 minutes and I could tell she was in pain as my hand started throbbing as soon as she lets go relaxing. She kept repeating she wished it would just be over but all knew the pain would be well worth it.

I was slowly falling asleep as I was still tired until my hand would be in slight pain as another contraction went through my wife's body. She was still so gorgeous and was doing a great job as I stroked her hair every once in a while. The contraction kept getting faster but it felt like forever and I didn't really understand how long it was until I looked at a clock realizing it was 5:34 and yet another nurse was coming in to check if she was almost ready. She screamed once more and the nurse announced that it was now time and that the baby wanted to come now. They wheeled her quickly into a birthing room as I followed holding her hand telling her to breath and help her push when instructed.

The doctor instructed her to push one more time as I talked to her and help her. She fell back trying to breathe not knowing that another one was necessary. I squeezed her hand trying my best to help her as she got the strength to give one more big push. She fell back on the pillow and as I place a small kiss upon her temple a cry filled the room and our faces held a smile.

I watched as the nurses took the baby just over wrapping them in a small blanket getting them ready to hold us. They turned around and my world was instantly changed.

"Congratulations on a gorgeous little girl" The nurse said as Mitchie sad up slightly taking the little girl within her arms and tears strung my eyes as I smile rubbing our little girls forehead in complete awe.

We were just both staring at our little girl until the nurse came and interrupted our staring as she needed to know the information for the birth certificate.

"Could I get the name" She asked smiling

"Ryann with two N's" Mitchie said smiling and I squeezed her hand

"Riley Gray" I finish as she smiles and leaves

It is now 30 minutes later Mitchie is all stitched up and in her own room now with a little cot for Ryann and I just came in sitting on the bed with Mitchie Ryann now in my arms as she is sound asleep. She still hasn't opened up her eyes but we would both be there when she was so we would witness that moment together. She was so tiny only 6 lbs and it was scary holding her in my body as she was so delicate and fragile. I was so happy though just like I was with Jadyn. This was just so magical all over again and with tears in my eyes I lean over placing a soft lip upon Mitchie's lips as she kisses back. This was just one of those moments that you can't get enough of and another one I would never forget.

I always keep a memory of my top 5 favourite. I know it's cheesy but whatever. Number 5 is definitely the weekend in Los Angeles. Number 4 is the time I heard her say I love you to me. The Third was when she accepted the promise ring. The second was the wedding and now for number 1 there is two moments. The time when I held Jadyn and right now holding Ryann in my arms.

Mitchie's Point of View

Ryann is now a week hold and I just crawl back into bad after her 3 am feeding as usual. This time it was my turn to feed her. Instead of breast feeding we decided to bottle feed since it would be easier to take turns. Shane and I are exhausted and Jadyn is at Shane's parent's house which is good he can sleep unlike us. We are dealing though because we both love our little girl and always will.

I felt a pair of familiar strong arms wrap around my shrinking tummy as I curl back up into him since I had woken up earlier for Ryann and figured he was now awake too.

"She is back asleep" I hear his husky voice ask

"Yeah she is, now it's my turn" I said and I hear him chuckles as my head presses against his chest as I close my eyes. I feel myself drift to sleep as I feel his hands gently stroke my hair. I love that feeling as he soon falls asleep again, until Ryann starts to cry again.

I woke up twice more once at 5 and another time around 7 am and decided to stay up the rest of the day as Shane did as well. Ryann slept a lot like Jadyn had but when he woke up he had stayed awake slightly long so we had more than 2 hour intervals but it was okay it was well worth it.

I had showered and got dressed and just got to the living room to see Ryann laying in her play pen fast asleep Shane sitting on the couch with two cups of coffee and a newspaper.

"Hey love" I say kissing him sitting down beside him taking a sip of the coffee which we both depended on to wake us up at the moment as we were up about the amount Ryan was asleep during the day.

"Hi babe" he says kissing me the taste of coffee on his lips and I smile

"What you reading?" I ask

"Nothing much just looking at the entertainment movies" he said and I nodded

"So I have been thinking of when Ryan his holder and alright for day care like Jadyn I could start recording a second album and get it out" I smiles and he hugged me

"That sounds like an amazing idea" He said smiling

"Yeah I thought so too" I say smiling

See it had been a while since either of us had been in a studio. Shane had two CD's out and I had my one. We were lucky for the last 9 months though that we didn't have to record and we were allowed to be together and get everything for Ryann. We were also planning on at least another 6 months of that to be with Ryann, Jadyn too of course who we had to pick up this afternoon. He would be staying home with us as we raised Ryann. We weren't working so we didn't need day care right away.

"I started writing a third which I will eventually get out" He smiles and I hug him again as we sit their sitting our coffee watching Ryann sleep quietly and peacefully in her play pen.

We did this a few mornings during the week. Just holding each other watching our beautiful little girl and usually little boy sleep and play being like we would've been when we were kids. It was truly amazing being responsible for little lives. We both new are family and love could conquer anything and our slight fame was just our job. Fame could never take us over because even though we would never dare say this, with fame there comes los and we don't want either we want family and love and for me that is what we always have and just being in his arms I can tell that is what he always wants to.

A/N: Alright so it took me a lot longer then I originally planned but there little girl is here and so far Family and love is what there about but as you know the title there is a little more than just happiness involved in this smitchie story. Anyways please review and make it a success like Worth the Risk, please enjoy and let me know what you think? It means a lot.
