CHAPTER: Family Pictures.
" So how's my favorite genetically engineered soldiers doing?" OC asked peering her head into the door.
Max and Alec turned their head to the direction of the door and smiled. " Hey," they said together.
Cindy walked into the room and looked at Alec's position on the bed near to Max, she raised an eyebrow at Max. Max smiled. Alec got up from the next to Max and sat on one of the chairs next to bed. " So Logan told me you were in the hospital. Max moved the sheet that was to her chest down to her thighs. " Wow," OC said. Max laughed at the baffled expression on her face. " Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't you tell me you had to have this baby with Alec like.uh. day before yesterday?" Max opened her mouth to speak but OC cut her off. " You didn't even tell him yet and now you're all. all. knocked up." She watched Max jaw drop at the adjective she used to describe her condition. She waked up to Alec and hit with her purse. " What you did to my boo?"
Alec held his shoulder where she hit him, " why do I always have to be the one who is subjected to abuse?"
" Because you're the one with the joy stick?" she said hitting him again."
Despite of the humor Max was getting out of this she had to put it to a stop, " Cindy it's really OK, it's just too complicated to explain."
She stopped hitting him and walked over to Max and looked down at her, " So you have any idea what it is?"
" It's a he, I hope." Max said putting her hands on her belly.
" It's a she, I hope." Alec said mimicking Max's tone.
" I'm sorry boo, but your boys right, boys are hell." OC said pulling one off the chairs closer to the bed. " So how was he," she said pointing at Alec, " on the scale of one to ten."
" I'm right here you know." he said to OC.
Max looked at him with an evil grain, " oh maybe about a nine." She saw his lips formed into a pout. " No, it was a ten." He face turned back to a smile.
" I still can't believe this, my boo, all impregnated."
" I can't believe it either." Max said.
" So Alec, what's up with you?" OC said addressing Alec.
" Well I was fine until my girlfriend's friend came and beat me up for no reason?" he said holding his shoulder like it hurt.
" So she's your girlfriend now? I hear wedding bells."
" That sound you're hearing is gunshots," Max said bleakly not that she didn't want to marry Alec, more than anything that was what she wanted but the reality of the situation was otherwise. " We can see about that after we get trough this."
" Gosh Max you really know how to dampen a mood." Said OC.
" I'm sorry," she said. She didn't mean to drop all her worries on her.
" Well," OC said pulling out camera out of her purse, " Married or not, every family needs some pictures. So strike a pose."
Max sat up and began to fix her hair, " I can't take a picture now I'm in a mess."
" Well I want one of you with the whole belly thing and seeing how fast this happen, it may not be there when I get back." She raised the camera up, " say peanut butter." Max giggled at it, and she took out the picture. " Now Alec I want some with you doing the whole father thing."
" Always happy to grace pictures with my face," He said and sat on the bed next to Max. Cindy took the picture. " That's it?" he asked.
" No, put your hand on her tummy, you know, it will look cute." She was going to take out the picture and she realized something about it looked unnatural. " Max raise that robe so your belly could show." Max rolled her eyes and pulled it up slightly. "Now Alec sit behind her and put your hands on her belly." Now it looked more natural to her, it looked really good actually. In fact it was the best picture she'd ever seen. "I'm all done." She said. She walked over to Max and Alec and showed them the pictures she had taken.
" When did you learn how to do this?" Max asked.
" What?"
" Learn to take out pictures like that?"
" I don't now, I guess it's a natural talent." She said putting the camera back in her bag.
They heard a bell sound off.
" What's that?" OC asked. She taught it was some kind of Emergency Alarm.
" Visiting hours is over." Alec informed.
" Oh well, it's time for Original Cindy to depart." She got up from the chair and looked at Max. " Don't worry your self to much okay after Monday every human with a heart is going to be behind you guys." She waked out the door and left them to talk.
Alec was in the same position he was before; Max keened her head against his chest. " Do you think she right?" she asked.
" Yeah off course, she has to be." He replied and put his arms around her. " We're going to get trough this."
" I know," she said over a yarn. " I'm getting tired. I don't usually need sleep."
" You were never pregnant before." He said. He felt her relax against him, he kissed her on her fore head and crawled off the bed and let her down on the pillow. She smiled when she looked at him and then closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Alec sat there thinking, about the next day, about what he would be officially. He wanted this so bad now, he could almost hear the baby crying it's fist little cry. In fact he was hearing a baby crying, he was in a hospital after all. So he sat there a thought about what his own child's crying would sound like when she or he was born.
NOTE: And the cheesiness prevails. Well what can I say I have to make these like this, it's compensation in advance.
