It felt like days before Amy actually gave birth to a beautiful baby girl. Everyone took turns to come see her. Even though Amy was exhausted and overwhelmed at the same time, she didn't want to put her baby girl down.
Ben tried to give her some respite by holding her but she just kept shifting and crying in his arms. Amy wanted to laugh at the helpless look on Ben's face but she didn't have the energy. The delivery had taken everything out of her. It hurt even more than she had imagined and the only thing that made it better was having Ben by her side. She was surprised he didn't faint, there were times when it felt like Amy was holding Ben's hand to give him support and not the other way around. But they'd gotten through it. They'd gotten through the hard part of child birth and everything that led up to it and still manage to fall more in love with each other, more each day.
"Have you thought of a name?" Anne asked Amy, as George, Ashley and Ben stood around the bed.
"No. Do you guys have any suggestions?" Amy asked, hoping to get some help.
Everyone just shrugged. Before Amy could persuade them to suggest something, Leo came in. Walking up to Amy's bed, he said," Oh my, she's beautiful." Leo said smiling.
"Do you want to hold her?" Amy asked.
Leo nodded and held the baby in his arms. The baby didn't struggle even a little bit, which made Ben a little jealous. He really wished that he'd have been able to handle the baby, it would've given him some confidence that he could do this. But it seemed like Amy had forgotten all about it, as she looked over at Ben and smiled at him warmly.
Ricky came in, he'd wanted to come earlier but he kept losing the nerve. When he saw the baby, he was so overwhelmed that his eyes filled with tears. Amy didn't say anything, as if saying everything that needed to be said by handing him their child.
The rest of the day was spent in Ben shooting a video of everyone with the baby. Everyone had forgotten their problems, just for a little while. When it was late, Anne, George and Ashley went home to take a shower and change . They suggested that Ben do the same but he refused to leave Amy's side.
"You can go home, I'll be fine." Amy said.
"I'm not going anywhere." Ben said.
Amy just smiled at Ben. Ben took a seat by the bed and none of them said anything, Ben thought Amy had fallen asleep, when she suddenly said, " Sarah."
"What?" Ben asked.
"We'll name her Sarah, after your mom." Amy said.
"Are you sure?" Ben asked.
"Yeah, you've always been there for this baby Ben and I want her to named after your mom." Amy said smiling.
"Thank you." Ben said, kissing Amy. He was just so overwhelmed, he didn't know what to say.
"No, thank you for being there, through all of it. You could've left anytime and I would've never blamed you but instead you've loved me unconditionally and decided to build a life with me, the kind of life I used to dream about." Amy said.
"I love you." Ben said.
"I love you too." Amy said.
Ben had never felt so happy in his whole life. Everybody thought he was crazy for marrying Amy and wanting to be the father of her baby but he always knew she was the one for him. He now had a family, they now had a family.
