Always and Forever Part Seven

"Sam we're not having anymore children!" Jules screamed as she got another contraction and squeezed Sam's hand tightly. "If I had known it was going to hurt this much we wouldn't even be hear right now!" She cried.

"We don't have to have any more children after our beautiful baby girl is born sweetheart." Sam promised as she stopped squeezing his hand.

"Yea," Jules head fell back onto the pillow, "I just wish I could sleep through her birth." She told him as he gently stroked her cheek with the back of his hand.

"I know you do sweetheart but you'll doing great, we'll have a baby girl soon. He tried to make her feel better.

"It's already been four hours." She complained as she felt another contraction. "This really, really, really hurts!" She cried.

"I know it does sweetheart and I wish there was something I could do for you but there isn't.

"Can you have this baby for me?" She asked him trying to smile through the pain.

"No sorry sweetheart that's your job." He told her "My job is to let you break my hand." He smiled.

Jules glared at him clearly not amused, "No your job is already done!" She yelled as she felt the worst contraction yet and squeezed Sam's hand as hard as she could

Three hours later Jules was holding her new daughter tightly in her arms, "How can she be sleeping?" Jules wondered as she watched her daughter sleep.

"She's had a long day; you know its hard being born." Sam smiled.

"Yeah I know." Jules responded, "She still needs a name." Jules whispered as their newborn daughter slowly opened her baby blue eyes.

"We kind of forgot about that didn't we?" Sam laughed as he gently kissed the top of Jules head, "You gave birth to her so I think it's only fair you get to name her. What name do you like?"

"You can have a say too Sam your hand must be pretty sore." Jules told him, "I'll pick her first name and you can choose her middle name."

"Ok, if that's what you want." Sam told her, "But I don't need to pick a name for her if you have two names you really like then you can use them."

"No I'm saving the other one for our next daughter." She smiled.

"What happened to we're not having anymore children?" He asked.

"I was in more pain then you'll ever be in that doesn't count. When Arianna's a little older we're going to have another daughter or son." She told him.

"Arianna," Sam smiled, "I love it,"

"So do I. What's her middle name?" Jules wondered as Arianna's eyes closed again.

Sam thought for a few minutes before saying "Natalie. Her, names Arianna Natalie Braddock."

"I love it." Jules smiled as she gently handed Arianna to Sam, "You can hold her for awhile I want to sleep." Jules told him as she put her head on the pillow and closed her eyes.

"I love you Jules." Sam gently whispered as he kissed her hair. "I love you too, sweetie don't worry." Sam laughed as Arianna opened her eyes and held up her arms to Sam's face.

"I told you that you'd make an excellent mother." Sam smiled as he leaned on the doorframe of the nursery on Arianna's first night home and watched Jules breast-feed her.

"No she's hungry there's a huge difference." Jules said as Sam walked further into the room.

"Yeah maybe but she loves you."

"She loves you to." Jules told him as she finished breast-feeding Arianna and carried her to her crib and gently placed her in it. "You're going to be a great father." Jules told him. "You already are." She kissed him on the lips then seeing the unsure look on his face she said "You're nothing like your father I know you'd never do anything us." Jules told him as she took his hands and placed them in hers.

"Yeah I know I'm just so afraid that she won't stop crying one day and I'll hurt her because I'm so frustrated and mad."

Jules shook her head, "No, you won't because you're the sweetest man I know and I know that you'd never hurt our daughter or me."

"Yeah I know but the thought just terrifies me." Sam admitted.

"It'll go away." Jules promised as she walked into their bedroom and placed the baby monitor on the bedside table and climbed into bed.

"Yeah I hope you're right." Sam told her as he climbed into bed beside her and gently pulled her into his arms, "I love you so much Jules." He told her as he eyes began to close.

"I love you too Sam." She told him as she quickly went to sleep.

"You know when you're older you're going to be helping me instead of just sitting there." Jules told her two week old daughter as she folded laundry.

"I don't think she likes that idea very much." Sam told her as he walked into the living room.

"Sam what are you-" Jules began when she saw a piece of paper in his hand and immediately knew what he was about to tell her. "Where?" She asked hoping it wasn't somewhere far away.

"China."
