Chapter 14
Christmas morning was soon there. Stephanie, Paul and the girls came over and exchanged presents. Jeff had a special surprise for Sierra, but wanted to wait until dinner that night. After Matt, Aurora and Gilbert arrived Sierra and Jeff checked on dinner and started making all the side items.
While fixing dinner the door bell rang. Sierra walked over to the front and opened it. There standing before her was her mom and dad. Sierra hugged both of them and asked them to come in. Sierra couldn't believe that her parents were there. Vince and Linda joined Jeff and Sierra in the kitchen while Stephanie pulled Matt aside.
"Thank you, Matt for the girls presents. You didn't have to do that." Stephanie stated.
"You're welcome. I know, but I wanted to. After all we are technically family." Matt responded.
"That we are." Stephanie stated.
Soon dinner was ready and everyone took their seats. Stephanie had been watching Jeff's interactions with Sierra all day and she really hoped that Sierra was happy and that one day she and Jeff would get married.
"Before we get started there is something I want to say and I wanted to say it front of everyone here. Sierra, I love you with all my heart. You have made me so happy by telling me that we were going to have a baby." Jeff stated as he walked over to Sierra. "I would be honored if you would make me the happiest man in the world by becoming my wife. Sierra, Will you marry me?"
Everyone was in shock by Jeff's marriage proposal as he knelt in front of Sierra. The room was quiet enough to hear a pin drop. Sierra couldn't believe that Jeff had just asked her to marry him.
"Jeff, I would love to become your wife. So yes, I will marry you!" Sierra responded.
Jeff slipped the ring on her finger before everyone congratulated the newly engaged couple. Dinner went as planned and Sierra couldn't help but admire her engagement ring. After dinner, Jeff had one last surprise for Sierra.
"There is one last gift for Sierra." Jeff stated.
"Jeff, you didn't have to get me anything else." Sierra responded.
"Oh but this was something that I have been working on for nearly a month. I would like everyone to follow me upstairs please." Jeff stated as everyone followed Jeff and Sierra upstairs.
Once everyone was upstairs, Jeff opened the door to the spare bedroom. Once Sierra laid eyes on the room she couldn't help but smile. Jeff had really outdid himself with the baby's room.
"Jeff, its amazing! I can't believe you did all this without me knowing." Sierra stated as she hugged Jeff.
"It wasn't easy, but I pulled it off." Jeff responded.
Everyone was in awe of the baby's room. The walls were fields and mountains while the ceiling was dark blue with stars, moon and planets. Sierra loved Jeff's artwork in the room and so did everyone else.
Once the holidays were over, everyone was back to work. Sierra stayed in contact with the girls back home as they were busy planning the baby shower. Sierra started looking at bridal dresses and places to have the wedding even though they haven't picked a date yet.
The baby shower came rather quickly. Sierra and Jeff received a lot of neat things for their son. Gilbert ad spent the last few months working on a rocking chair and cradle for the baby. Sierra nearly burst into tears when she saw the chair and cradle. She couldn't believe that everyone was so excited for this baby.
Over the next two weeks, Sierra and Jeff had managed to pick a wedding date on January 1st. One morning Sierra woke up in a some pain. Jeff drove her to the hospital where she was hooked up to fetal monitors. After spending 24 hours in the hospital for observation, Sierra was released to go home, but had to remain on bed rest.
"Do you have to go?" Sierra asked as she watched Jeff pack for his road trip.
"Yes. I will be home in a few days. Aurora is going to stay with you while I'm gone. Matt is here too since he is still recovering from his surgery." Jeff answered.
"Ok. Hurry home." Sierra stated.
"I will. I want you to stay in bed as much as possible while I'm gone. After all we are only 6 weeks away from our son being born." Jeff stated as he kissed her goodbye.
The few days seemed to drag by for both Sierra and Jeff. Aurora and Matt stayed with Sierra the entire time Jeff was gone. Sierra was just thankful that the baby decided not to cause anymore issues while Jeff was gone. Or so she thought.
It was now the morning of March 16th, Jeff was due home that evening. Sierra, Aurora and Matt got things ready for Jeff to come home. Sierra was sitting in the living room working on a baby blanket when she felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen.
"Aurora! Matt!" Sierra called out.
"Sierra, what's wrong?" Matt asked coming down the stairs.
"I'm having sharp pains in my stomach. I think we need to go to the hospital." Sierra answered.
"Ok. Aurora, help get Sierra out to the car. I will grab the baby bag that we just packed and we will go to the hospital." Matt responded.
Once they got to the hospital, Sierra was taken into a room and hooked up to fetal monitors and an IV. After about an hour, a nurse finally emerged in the waiting room.
"I am looking for the family of Sierra McMahon." the nurse stated.
"That would be me. I am her brother-in-law, Matt." Matt stated.
"Ok. We have her hooked up to a baby monitor and an IV. We are going to admit her as she is in labor. Is the baby's father here yet?" the nurse advised him.
"He is on his way home. He was in New York." Matt stated. "Can we stay with her until he gets here?"
"Ok. That's fine." the nurse stated. "She is in room 315."
"Thank you." Matt stated.
Aurora headed to the room while Matt called all their friends and his dad. Matt also tried to call Jeff again. This time the phone rang.
"Hey Matt!" Jeff answered.
"Where are you?" Matt asked.
"On my way to the house. I got an earlier flight. What's wrong?" Jeff answered.
"We are at the hospital. Sierra went into labor this morning." Matt responded.
"I'm on my way. What room?" Jeff stated.
"315." Matt responded.
Matt headed towards Sierra's room and walked in during a contraction. Aurora was assisting Sierra through the pain and breathing. Once the contraction was over with, Matt took a seat next to Sierra so that he could tell her the good news.
"I just got off the phone with Jeff. He was able to get an earlier flight home and is on his way here. He will be here before the baby comes." Matt stated.
"Thank you Matt!" Sierra responded with a half smile.
As time passed, the waiting room became full of friends and family. Jeff had called Stephanie and told her that Sierra was in the hospital getting ready to have the baby. Stephanie then called her brother and parents. Everyone was able to board the company plane and get to the hospital by that evening.
Sierra couldn't have been more happier than when Jeff walked through the door of her room. Sierra hugged him as best she could before another contraction hit. After Jeff got there, Matt and Aurora headed out to the waiting room. It was somewhere around 2:30am when Sierra was finally able to start pushing. Jeff and a nurse were there to support her.
Meanwhile out in the waiting room, Matt, Aurora, Shannon, Linda, Vince, Shane, Stephanie, Tiffany, Yuk, Alesia, Kimo, Gilbert and a few others were sitting around talking and waiting. Some couldn't believe that Jeff and Sierra were already having the baby. Others just couldn't believe that Jeff was going to be a father.
Back in the room, Sierra was pushing just like the doctor told her to do. Jeff encouraged Sierra every step of the way. Before long, the doctor could finally see the baby's head crowning.
"One more big push and your baby will be here, Sierra." the doctor told her.
"Baby, I know you can do it. I know that you are tired, but just think, after this next push you will be able to hold our son." Jeff stated.
"I'm ready." Sierra stated as if another bout of energy burst through her.
"Ok. Get ready and Push." the doctor stated.
"1.2..3..4..5..6..7..8..ok stop." the nurse stated.
After the doctor was able to get the baby's head and shoulders out, the rest of the body slid out easily. Sierra started crying as soon as she heard the baby crying.
"Congratulations mom and dad. It's a boy!" the doctor stated while he finished getting Sierra cleaned up.
Once the baby was cleaned up, weighed and measured, the nurse handed the baby to Sierra. Jeff sat next to Sierra on the bed and smiled. He couldn't believe that their son was finally here.
"We need to name him." Sierra stated once the doctor and nurses were out of the room.
"What do you suggest for a name?" Jeff asked.
"How about Logan Evan Hardy?" Sierra answered.
"I like that a lot." Jeff responded.
After taking a few pictures of Sierra and Logan. Jeff headed out to the waiting room. Everyone stood up and looked at Jeff.
"We have a son! Logan Evan Hardy, 6lbs 2ozs 20 inches born March 17th at 3:17am." Jeff announced.
Everyone congratulated him on Logan's birth. Jeff shared the pictures that he took in the room. It was almost dawn by the time everyone left the hospital. Vince had sent Linda, Stephanie and Shane to the hotel as he wanted to see his daughter first. Jeff led Vince to Sierra's room where she was sitting up waiting for Logan to return from the nursery.
"Daddy? You're here?" Sierra asked.
"Of course I am. Mom, Steph and Shane are here too. I sent them back to the hotel to get some sleep. How are you feeling?" Vince answered.
"I feel good. A little tired, but good." Sierra stated.
"I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry for the way I acted in the beginning about the pregnancy and you and Hardy dating. I was wrong." Vince stated.
"It's ok Dad. What matters now is that you are here at the hospital when your grandson was born." Sierra responded as a nurse wheeled Logan back into the room.
"Ms. McMahon, visiting hours don't start until 8am." the nurse stated.
"Please let him stay. This is my father, Vince McMahon." Sierra responded.
"Ok. I will make notes on your chart." the nurse stated handing Logan to Sierra and then leaving the room.
"Dad, would you like to hold him?" Sierra asked.
"I would love to." Vince stated taking Logan into his arms.
Jeff snapped a few pictures of Vince holding Logan. Sierra couldn't have been any happier than at that very moment. After Vince left, Sierra fed Logan and fell asleep. Jeff took a seat in the empty chair and held his son. He still couldn't believe that he was a father to a healthy baby boy.
A few days after Logan's birth Sierra and Jeff were sitting at home going through all the baby gifts, when the doorbell rang. Jeff answered the door. Matt and Aurora walked in and headed over to the living room.
"Hey guys, what's up?" Sierra asked.
"We have some good news." Matt stated.
"What's that?" Jeff asked sitting back down next to Sierra.
"Aurora and I are getting married!" Matt stated.
"Congrats, bro." Jeff stated.
"But that's not all." Matt stated.
"It's not?" Sierra asked.
"We're also pregnant." Aurora answered.
"Congratulations to both of you!!" Sierra stated excitedly. "When are you due?"
"The beginning of November. And the wedding will be taking place next summer." Aurora responded.
Jeff, Sierra, Matt and Aurora sat around talking about all the details. Logan soon woke up and wanted to eat. Sierra and Aurora continued their conversation upstairs in the nursery, while the guys talked downstairs.
