John and Mike rushed into the hospital. John asked for the labor and delivery and they headed up. They saw Caroline in the waiting room with the kids.

"Where's Anna?" John asked her as he picked up Zoey and Nikolas.

"They took her back already. You can leave the kids here with me." He nodded and handed them over to her and Mike. He rushed back and was shown to Anna's room.

"I didn't miss anything did I?" He said as he walked in.

"No, everything is good." Anna replied. "The doctor said I'm dilated to five." He nodded and held her hand. "The doctor said everything is normal."

"Well, that's great." He looked at her. "What aren't you telling me?"

"I just had a rough delivery with Nikolas. I was in labor for a while and it stalled. But the doctor said everything is fine." He looked at her concerned. "I'm fine."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. The doctor said everything was moving like it should. He saw no problems. Everything is fine."

"Alright let's check your progress." The doctor said walking in. He did an exam. "Alright. Anna, I think we should do a c-section as we did with Nikolas."

"Why? Is something wrong?" John asked.

"No, I just would prefer to do the c-section because she had it before."

"Alright." Anna said. "Let's do it."

"I'm going to check on the kids and tell Caroline and Mike what's going on. I'll be right there." She nodded as he left. She just wanted the c-section done.

John walked into the waiting room and saw Caroline and Mike with the kids. "How is she?"

"They're doing a c section."

"Is something wrong?" Mike asked.

"No, she just had a c-section with Nikolas and the doctor wants her to have it this time too."

"We'll take the kids with us so you can be with her."

"Thanks." He said turning to Zoey and Nikolas. "You both go with Aunt Caroline and Uncle Mike. And I will see you later after mommy has had the baby okay?" They both nodded and Mike and Caroline headed out.

He got ready and headed back to the delivery room. When he got there, he was taken to the OR where Anna was being prepped for surgery. "Mr Cena, if you will sit by your wife's head, we will get started." John nodded and took his place by Anna. A few minutes later, they heard the baby cry. "And here is your son."

"Is he okay?" Anna asked.

"He's perfect. We are going to clean him up and weight him and then you can hold him." Anna nodded and they started stitching her up.

"Mr. Cena, do you want to hold your son?" John nodded as he was handed the baby.

He looked down at Anna. "He's so beautiful."

She smiled. "Don't worry, Mrs. Cena. Once we have you in your room, you will be able to hold him as well." The doctor said as they finished up.

Anna nodded and looked at John with tears in her eyes. "He's perfect right?"

"He's perfect." John replied. He leaned in and kissed her. "We have a beautiful family." She smiled and let the tears flow. "I hope those are happy tears?"

"They are." She smiled through them. "Tears that we are a happy family. We're together and we have three beautiful children." He smiled and kissed her.

He headed out to the waiting room while the doctors took Anna to her room. He had to smile when he saw Nina there. "I wasn't expecting you but I'm glad you came."

"Anna is my friend. Of course I'd be here."

"That will make her happy. It's like having her brother here." He replied. "Mike and Caroline took Zoey and Nikolas home with them."

Nina nodded. "I miss him. So much. Anna is my last connection to him."

"I understand that. I think that's how Anna feels about you." He looked at her. "Why don't you go in and see her and Ben. I need to call Mike and Caroline and check on the kids?" She nodded and headed into the room.

Anna smiled when the door opened. She smiled at Nina. "Hey."

"Hey." Nina said walking in. "I came to see that beautiful baby boy." She walked over to where Anna was holding Ben.

"This is Benjamin Philip." Anna smiled as Nina took the baby.

"Phil would have loved that."

"Thanks." Anna smiled. "I just wanted to honor the person who really raised me. And luckily John agreed."

Nina smiled. "He's handsome. I can see John and you."

Anna smiled. "Thanks. I was hoping he would have some of me in there because Nikolas doesn't. But it would be fine if he was all John too."

Nina smiled too. "You're lucky you know."

"I do." Anna smiled. "I feel very blessed." She looked at Nina. "You know, you can have this. Phil wouldn't want you to be sad or alone."

Nina sighed. "I know. But he was the love of my life. I can't imagine being with anyone else."

"I understand that." Anna replied. "I do but you can't stop your life. Just be open to the idea."

"Okay, I'll be open to it."

"Good." Anna smiled. "I want you to be happy and I want you come around more and spend time with these amazing kids and me and John." Nina smiled and nodded. "Good. Now, can I get my kid back?" She laughed. "I think he's hungry." Nina laughed and nodded. She handed the baby to Anna who started feeding the baby.

"I better get going."

"Alright." Anna replied. "Make sure you come and see us."

Nina nodded. "I will." She hugged her and headed out. She had promised Anna's parents that she would let them know when Anna had the baby. She hoped Anna wouldn't be mad.

She drove to their house and knocked on the door. "Nina, dear nice to see you." Olivia said to her.

"You too, Mrs. Brooks." Nina said walking in. "I thought you would want to know that Anna had the new baby. A little boy, Benjamin Philip."

She smiled sadly. "Thank you for letting us know."

"You're welcome." Nina looked at her. "I hope you get to see him and get to know Nikolas."

"I hope so too. But I don't think it will happen. I talked to her husband and he said he would talk to her. But I'm guessing she said she didn't want us around the kids. I thought Dwayne's influence would die when he did but I guess not."

"Maybe she'll come around."

"I wish that were true." Olivia replied. "My son is dead and I can't see my grandchildren or daughter. I just can't believe all of this."

"In all fairness, you did do some of this to yourself."

"I see Phil told you about us." Olivia replied.

"You know he told me." Nina replied. "And you have to see things from Anna's point of view. She wants to protect her children."

"I understand that." Olivia looked at her. "I do understand that. But Philip and I have changed. I went to rehab and we are both in recovery groups. We've changed."

"Then you have to make Anna see that."

"How? How can I do that?"

"I can't answer that."

"Yeah, I know." Olivia replied. She looked at her. "Thanks for telling me about the baby being born. I don't suppose you have a picture of him or Nikolas or Anna?"

"No. I'm sorry."

She sighed. "It was worth a shot." She replied. "I hope someday I get to see my grandchildren and daughter again."

"I hope so too."

Olivia looked at her. "Thanks again for telling me. I appreciate the updates."

Nina nodded. "You're welcome." She smiled at her and headed out. She hated that Olivia didn't get to see the kids or Anna but both she and Philip had no one to blame but themselves.
