Chapter 10:
Julia was now 37 week pregnant. Just 2 more weeks to go. She had maternal leave already and she had a hard time standing up. The pregnancy took a toll on her. She was very tired and the doctor even said she had to rest by her last appointment.

Norrie, Joe and Carolyn are with Julia. They wanted to pay a visit and Julia didn't had anything better to do. She liked to have some company when Barbie was at work. Barbie had work to do at the police department.

In the morning she felt a little bit of pain in her abdomen, but took it lightly. Thinking it was just before labour pains that she had read in her pregnancy book. They would start around this time so she just thought it where those and not real once.

Norrie and Carolyn did made lunch for all of them and Joe was having a conversation with Julia.

"What are you going to name him or her?" Joe asks Julia. "We first came with a girls name, we want to name our child Olivia Melanie if it's a girl." Joe looks up at her with wide open eyes. "Melanie?" "Yes, Barbie misses his sister and I miss her too, so to honor her we want her second name to be Melanie."

Joe really loved the idea, just as much as Julia and Barbie. They all missed Melanie, but they know she is somewhere else looking down on them.

"If it is a boy we like to call him Dean. I like a name with a D because of Barbie's real name is Dale so I wanted a D and he likes Dean too so lucky me." Julia smiles, but feels a uncomfortable but little pain in her abdomen just like this morning. She just ignores it.

Carolyn and Norrie came in with the lunch. They all ate something and talked about nice things when Julia needed to go to the bathroom.

"I go to the bathroom. I will be right back." Carolyn wanted to help Julia up the stairs, but she insisted to do it alone, so that they could keep eating lunch while Julia would use the toilet in the bathroom.

After Julia did her need she stood up and felt another uncomfortable pain. She walks on the hall when she feels something wet between her legs. Water. Her water just broke. She was going into labour. It where real contractions that she had felt earlier.

"Carolyn can you come up stairs please." She says from upstairs. Joe and Norrie look up to the staircase, but they don't see Julia. Carolyn stands up and walks up the stars. Joe and Norrie just keep eating. Carolyn gave them the stay down here look.

"Julia what's…." She saw the water on the floor. "Okay you are going into labour." "Really? I haven't figured it out myself yet." She felt a sort of menstruation cramp in her abdomen and puts her hand on it.
"What is taking so long, the tea is getting cold." Norrie came up the stairs and froze. "O my god." Joe came up and saw Julia too. He was suprised. "I thought you still had 2 weeks left."

Carolyn helped Julia on her bed in the bedroom. She was in pain now. Not much, but they had to drive for 15 minutes to the hospital of Zenith if everything went well so she would be in more pain when she got there.

"Grab the bag in the nursery. The things are already in there. Barbie made sure when the baby would come we already had things in a bag. Au!" Norrie got the bag from the nursery and walked down with Joe to the car.

Carolyn took a few clothes for Julia and did put them in a little bag and gave it to Joe when he got in the room again. "I so know how Harriet felt." "You will be fine, let's get to the car."

A doorbell rang. Joe opened the door and saw Sam. "Hi Sam." Norrie came from behind Sam into the house. "You guys got a party going on with Julia, I heard she needed her rest so I came to visit." Norrie said it. "Well the rest is over. Baby wants to enter this great world now." He heard Julia upstairs. Cursing.

Sam walked into the house up to the bedroom. "Let me help." Julia looks at Sam. "Call Barbie." And that's what he did.

-
Barbie was at the police station when he got a call from Sam. Why would he call me? Was what he thought to himself. At first he did ignore him. He had better things to do right now, but after the third time he picked up.

"Sam I don't have time. I'm buzzy at the moment." "Well Julia is buzzy too. I came to visit her and she was already in labour." That made Barbie go on full alert. "I will be right there. How long is she?" He heard Sam talk to Carolyn and he heard Julia in the background. He wanted to be by her side right this second. He made sure that he would be home the week of the due date so he would be with Julia the moment it started. Change in the actual plan.

"Julia just told Carolyn she felt it for 4 hour now, but didn't took it as actual labour." Barbie talked to him on the phone when he took of from the police station.
He drove towards the house, his street came into few and he saw Carolyn and Sam helping Julia in the car. He got out of the car and did run towards Julia. "I'm here baby." He came to sit behind Julia in the back seat so that she could lean against him. Carolyn took place behind the wheel.

"Sam come with us, we never know what will happen along the way." Julia says to him. Julia wanted someone with medical training in the car for when something would go wrong.
Barbie gave her a kiss on her crown while Sam took place in the passenger seat.

"You came fast." "I would not let you do it alone." Was his response while Julia hisses from the pain.

-
They did drive for over 10 minutes now and Julia's pain was getting worse and worse by each mile they drove.
Julia squeezed Barbie's hand whenever she had a new contraction.

"I think…. I feel like… I have to push." Julia says in horrible pain. Almost screaming after she said it. Sam and Barbie looked at each other. "Pull over." Was all Sam said to Carolyn and she did as she was told.
Sam came to the passenger seat where Julia's legs are. Opening the door. "I hope you don't mind me looking?" Julia didn't minded it as long everything went well.

Sam looked and was shocked by what he saw. Barbie saw his expresion and so was Julia. "What is it Sam?" Barbie keeps looking at him. "I see the head. You have to deliver here."

This was not what they both had expected to happen when their baby would be born. They both thought it would be in a hospital bed and not in a car.

Carolyn took blankets and brought it to Sam, helping him deliver the baby. Barbie was behind Julia, trying to comfort her. He wanted to take her pain away, but he couldn't.

"You can do it baby." Says Barbie sweetly to Julia. "By the next contraction I want you to push." When she the contraction she did push. Screaming because of the pain. Chrushing Barbie's hand, but he doesn't even flinch.

She kept on pushing. "Another one and the head is out. 1, 2, 3, push!" She pushed again. "You are doing so good baby." He gave a kiss on her sweaty cheek.

Carolyn had the blanket ready and Julia gave one last push. That's when they heard a cry, a cry of life only babies could make. Julia let a tear fall down her cheek. She did it. Both of them had made this mirracle, their beautiful child.

"It is a boy!" They had a baby boy. A beautiful boy. Sam gave the baby to Carolyn and she did lay him on his mothers chest. He stopped crying immediately, hearing the comfortable heartbeat of his mother. "You are so beautiful. We love you." She gives him a soft kiss on his tiny nose.

After holding her son for a while she wanted Barbie to hold him. Barbie took him in his strong and protective arms. Whispering sweet words to him. Julia smiles at the sight of it.

"Thank you Sam. You too Carolyn." Carolyn smiles back through the drivers mirror. Sam smiles as well, while calling with the hospital. Making sure they got the help they needed the moment they got there.

"He looks like a Barbara." Is all what Barbie says while kissing Julia on the lips. "Let's go to mommy now hey." He gives their son to Julia who holds him lovely in her arms.

"Definitely a Dean." She says while looking at Barbie. "Yeah." He gives her a kiss on the lips and she returns.

Dean Dale Barbara is born. Now they have a family. And Barbie had build a future with the love of his life. The future he wanted to build towards with Julia has come true.
