Well, although there just was one review telling me to update I'm going to do it…. Anyway please read and review.

Thanks guys

Half an hour later Melinda was brought to a room. Jim went with her. They weren't allowed to see the baby yet because the doctors were still examining him. Melinda was very weak but she didn't want to fall asleep and miss something. Jim sat on a chair next to her holding her hand.

Melinda: "What if he…" she whispered.

Jim: "Don't even think about it. He's gonna be fine. They will bring him here and give him to you. He's strong just like you. He'll make it."

Melinda: "And what if he is sick?"

Jim: "Then he is sick. He's still our child no matter what… And I'll always be there for you two. I promise." He kissed her forehead.

Melinda yawned.

Jim: "Are you tired?"

Melinda: "Yes."

Jim: "Then go to sleep."

Melinda: "No."

Jim: "Why not?"

Melinda: "I don't want to miss him coming in."

Jim: "I could wake you up then… You had an exhausting day… You need to rest."

Melinda: "I can still do that later." She seemed to think about something.

Jim: "What are you thinking about?"

Melinda: "Will we stay with his name?"

Jim: "Sure, why would we want to change it?"

Melinda: "I don't know. I just wanted to make sure that you're okay with it."

Jim: "Honey, I love the name. Aiden is exceptional and special. Just like your name. It fits perfectly."

Melinda: "Okay."

Then there was silence between the two of them. It wasn't an awkward silence they just didn't know what to say.

Melinda: "God… Giving birth really hurts like hell." She broke the silence.

Jim: "Awww… Poor honey. But I'm really glad that you're out of danger though." He came closer to her and kissed her tenderly.

Melinda: "It's okay… I'm happy that everything is over and you can treat me like a normal person again."

Jim: "I can't tell you often enough how great you did!" he didn't react on the last part of her sentence because he knew that they'd end up fighting about it.

Melinda: "Thanks." She said.

Jim: "I think I couldn't have done it."

Melinda: "Believe me you could… God, I'm getting impatient. I want to see him now." She got up from her bed and walked around.

Jim: "Honey, please go back to bed… You're exhausted and weak. You just gave birth and you don't know if you're allowed to get up again! Come on, please lie down again." He pled desperately.

Melinda: "Jim, I can't. I'm going crazy. It doesn't matter to me if I'm dying I just want him to live. I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong. Otherwise they would have brought him to us by now."

Jim: "But Aiden needs you and so do I. Maybe they just want to take care that nothing happened to him since he didn't breathe at first?! Calm down and please lie down."

Melinda: "No." she had tears in her eyes.

Jim got up and lifted her bridal style. Melinda put her arms around his neck and started to cry. Jim sat down on the bed with Melinda and tried to comfort her.

Jim: "Shhh… Everything is alright." He cradled her.

Suddenly someone knocked at the door. Melinda immediately stopped crying and wiped her tears away. A baby was crying right in front of the door. Melinda looked at Jim and smiled because somehow she knew that it was her son and not any other child.

Melinda: "Come in." she said a bit louder while Jim got up.

The door opened and a doctor and a nurse came in. The nurse had a little bundle in her arms. The doctor and the nurse went to the bed.

Nurse: "Here's your little boy." She handed Melinda the baby which was still crying.

Melinda: "Thanks." She looked down at the bundle in her arms and cradled it. Aiden immediately calmed down.

Melinda couldn't believe that this baby was her own and that no one could ever take him away from her.

Jim: "He looks just like you." He said in low voice while he stroked the baby's back.

Melinda: "Is Aiden alright? Why didn't he breathe at first?" she asked worried.

Doctor: "He's a bit too small and light. That's one of the many reasons why your birth was a high risk. He's lucky that his organs are strong and good working. Otherwise he would have come in the incubator. He didn't breathe at first because he was distressed of the birth. It wasn't easy for him but now he seems to be okay."

Melinda: "So it would have been better if he'd still be inside of me?" she asked shyly.

Doctor: "We don't know if he would've been distressed in a few days, too. But we think that it wouldn't matter."

Melinda: "Okay." She looked at her baby again. "Do I… We have to take care about something special?"

Doctor: "No, just the usual stuff. There's nothing special to take care off. But you'd better breastfeed him. If you'd give him the bottle it wouldn't be bad but it's better for him to be fed by breast. That's just an offer. It's your decision what you'll do."

Melinda: "Okay, thank you. And am I allowed to get up again?" She smiled.

Doctor: "Yes, you can walk around again but take it easy."

Melinda: "I will."

Aiden started to cry again.

Jim: "What's wrong with him now?"

Nurse: "He wants to nurse. Do you know how to do that?"

Melinda: "I think so." She put up her shirt and gave her right breast to Aiden. He immediately started to drink.

Nurse: "You know how to do it. Do you also know how to do the diapers?"

Melinda: "No, I don't know how to change the diapers."

Nurse: "No problem. Just call me when he's stinking and I'm going to show you how to do it."

Melinda: "Okay, thank you."

Nurse: "You're welcome. Good luck with your baby."

Jim: "Thank you for everything. You were really helping us a lot." He shook the doctor's and the nurse's hands.

Then the doctor and the nurse left.

There was an awkward silence in the room. Neither Melinda nor Jim knew what to say. They just looked at each other and smiled. Aiden stopped drinking and fell asleep. Melinda put down her shirt again and lightly hit Aiden on his back in order to let the air come out. Then she cradled him while she looked at Jim.

Melinda: "Do you want to hold him?" she asked.

Jim: "Sure, why not." He smiled at her.

Melinda turned to him and handed him Aiden.

Melinda: "Here you go little man. That's your daddy." She whispered to her son as she handed him to Jim.

Jim: "Am I holding him correctly?"

Melinda: "Honey, you can't make a mistake holding him. He'll tell you if he doesn't like it."

Jim: "Sure, he already can talk."

Melinda: "You know what I mean. He'll cry if he doesn't like it."
Jim: "Okay."

Melinda looked at him. Jim held the baby with shaking hands.

Melinda: "What's wrong? Why aren't you holding him tightly?"

Jim: "I don't want to hurt him. He's so tiny."

Melinda: "You can't hurt him."

Jim: "Why are you so sure about it?"

Melinda: "I don't know, I just know. Trust me, you can hold him tighter."

Jim: "Okay." He held Aiden tighter. "Better?"

Melinda: "A lot." She smiled.

Jim: "You know what is not fair?"

Melinda: "What?"

Jim: "That you have to go through everything."

Melinda: "What do you mean?"

Jim: "The morning sickness, the pain, feeding him… Just everything. I'm just here doing nothing."

Melinda: "It's okay, really."

Jim: "I don't think so."

Melinda: "Why?"

Jim: "Because you're still so young."

Melinda: "Jim, it was my decision to keep him. So don't worry about it. And I'm not that young anymore. I turned 18 three months ago."

Jim: "Are you sure?"

Melinda: "Yes, I am. And if you feel so bad about not being able to do anything… You can always change his diapers." She smiled.

Jim: "Too kind." He laughed.

Aiden started to cry.

Jim: "What am I doing now?" he asked shocked.

Melinda: "Give him to me. He's just hungry again."

Jim: "Okay. I won't ask you how you know this and just trust you." He said and gave Aiden to her.

Melinda lifted her shirt a bit and gave her breast to Aiden again. He immediately calmed down and drank.

Melinda: "Did you smell anything?"

Jim: "No, why?"

Melinda: "Just because you wanted to know how I knew. It was a guess. I didn't smell anything and there aren't many things he'd want, you know?!"

Jim: "You're perfect."

Melinda: "I'm not."
Jim: "You are. Everything you do and stuff. Not everyone would do that."
Melinda: "But I want to do that. So there's no problem."

Jim: "I love you." He leaned down to her and kissed her gently.

Melinda: "I love you, too." she looked down at Aiden. "And I love you, too, my baby." She smiled at Jim. "Honey, can you please go and ask a nurse for a cradle? I think he should sleep now. He looks exhausted."

Jim: "I will. But you should sleep, too. You had a rough day."

Melinda: "I will go to sleep when he's sleeping."

Jim: "Okay. But promise me that you will sleep then?!"

Melinda: "I promise." She yawned.

Jim walked over to the door and wanted to leave. But then he stopped.

Melinda: "What's wrong?"

Jim: "I don't want to leave you two alone."

Melinda: "Okay. I'll press the nurse call button." She said while she pushed it.

Jim: "Thank you."

Melinda: "It's okay. But you'll tell her what's wrong." She smiled at him.

Jim: "I will."

The nurse came and brought a cradle. Melinda lay Aiden down there. Then Jim lay down with her and they both fell asleep.

Please REVIEW!!!! I really need to know what you think about it :)
