Week 40

7:32 am

"Why am I even here?" Ty complained getting into the cop car. Sully chuckled slightly.

"Because they asked you to and you need to money." He said.

"But today is Alex's due date." He said. Sully shook his head.

"She won't give birth to the baby today." He said, "You'll be fine to do your last day of work." Ty nodded slowly.

"I'm just nervous." He said, "I think I need some coffee."

"Yokas doesn't make the best does she?" Sully snickered. Ty shook his head.

"No she doesn't. Let's go to D&D." Ty said. He hated going to Dunkin' Donuts falling on the whole Stereotypical police officer role, but Dunkin' Donuts made the best coffee. Ty pulled into a parking space and the officers got out. "I think I'll get a blueberry muffin also. I'm starving like something fierce.

"Okay. I'll get it today." Sully said walking up to the corner and giving the cashier their order. Ty looked around at the patrons of the shop. They were all dressed in their business suits. All eating breakfast before work…They already seemed preoccupied with their pending day. "Here you go."

"Thanks Man." Ty smiled and took his muffin and coffee. "I really need this." He got into the car and put the coffee into the cup holder. The radio started to go off.

"55-Charlie, it's Bosco here." He said. Ty frowned slightly.

"We're here, Bosco." He said, "What do you want?"

"Alex called the precinct." Bosco said, "She said her water broke and she was waiting on the front porch for you." Ty's blood stopped in his veins.

"H-her water b-broke?" He stuttered.

"That's what she said." Bosco said.

"Oh god." Ty's hands started to tremble. He flipped on the sirens, "Oh god." Ty pealed out of the parking lot and raced to the house Sully held on tightly. "Oh god/ Oh god." The ten-minute ride to their house felt like a three-hour ride. He screeched to the front of their house. Alex smiled walking down the stairs with her hospital bag.

"Took you long enough." She smiled.

"Are you okay? How far are the contractions?" Ty raced to her side.

"The contractions are five minutes apart and I'm doing okay." Alex said, "I just need to get to the hospital."

"Right, okay. Yeah. Okay." Ty helped her into the back of the cruiser. He kissed her forehead.

"Now." Alex chuckled.

"Oh, right. Sorry." Ty mumbled.

12:19 p.m.

Alex sat in her hospital bed talking on the phone. She laughed gently.

"I'm fine, mother. Honest…No. No epidural for me…I can do it I swear, I can." Alex laughed gently, "How long were you in labor with me?…Oh. Twenty hours. And Adam…Fifteen not that bad…I know. I wish you could be here too…Dr. White just came in." She said as Dr. White sat in front of Alex.

"I'm going to check to see how far along you are." He said.

"He's checking my dialation." She said as Dr. White examined her.

"You're coming along slowly, but nicely. You're five centimeter." He said. Alex groaned.

"Five centimeters." She sighed as a contraction decided to tear through her body. She handed the phone to Ty and groaned loudly. The pain was so intense. She didn't know if she could do this for twenty hours. She hoped it would be a short labour. Finally, as the contraction passed, Alex collapsed against the bed.

"Are you okay?" Ty asked. Alex nodded.

"Yeah. You hung up on my mother." She said.

"Oh sorry." He muttered, "She'll call back."

"She will." Alex ran her hand across her forehead, "What about your family? Are you going to call them?" TY shook his head.

"No. Not yet. I want this to be a happy occasion." He said. She smiled softly.

"This is a happy occasion. I'm so happy the time is finally here." She said.

"I'm so excited to have her here so soon." Ty said.

"Well, it's been a long journey and its going to be even longer having a wonderful life with her." Alex said.

"I love you so much, Alex." Ty said.

"I love you too, baby." Alex said, "I will always love you."

4:58 p.m.

"Oh my god. I hate you." Alex sobbed into Ty's shoulder; "I hate you so much."

"I know." TY whispered rubbing her back gently.

"It hurts so much." Alex moaned.

"I know it does." He said.

"No you don't." Alex snapped "you don't know how much this hurts! I have a human coming from a very tiny hole!"

"You're right. I don't know or do I want to know how much pain you're in." He said. Alex began to sob again. Gina one of the nurses that was on call walked in and snapped some gloves on. She was going to see how dilated Alex was once again.

"What's the verdict?" Alex asked.

"Seven centimeters. You're coming along slowly, but nicely." She said. Alex moaned.

"I want this over with." She whined.

"I know you do. Hopefully before the stroke of midnight you'll have your precious daughter here." Gina patted Alex's leg. "Don't fret. She can't stay in there forever." Alex closed her eyes trying to make all this pain disappear.

5:25 p.m.

Alex sat in the bed glaring at Ty. He adverted his eyes. She had been saying awful things to him the past few hours. He knew she was in pain and she was just trying to get everything out.

"Contraction." Alex moaned. She grabbed Ty's hand and squeezed it hard. The pain tore through her body like a burning freight train going through a straw. It was unbearable. "Oh fuck."

"Are you sure you don't want to have an epidural?" He asked.

"I'm sure!" She snapped.

"Okay." Ty said slowly.

"I'm sorry." Alex sighed, "I'm just anxious."

"I know. We both are."

"How long have I been at this?" Alex whispered.

"About ten and a half hours." Ty said. Alex moaned loudly.

"Mom had me in twenty hours." She said softly. "Can you go get me some ice chips? I'm very thirsty." Ty nodded.

"Sure. I'll be right back." He said leaving the room. Alex sighed looking out the window.

"Daddy, I wish you were here. I need you here badly. You don't understand how much. I also thought on this day you would be here." Alex said, "I need your help. I need your guidance. I don't know if I can do this without some kind of help from you. I know you're there watching over us…Just give me a little push. Please, Daddy. I need you." She sighed softly looking at the sun. It was bright orange and looked so beautiful. She ran her hand over her stomach. "Come on, Jade. Come now"

10:13 p.m.

"Do you want to watch SVU?" Ty asked.

"I don't want to fucking watch SVU." Alex snapped, "I don't want to watch any god damn TV. I just want to get this fucking labour over with!!!! I. NEED. PUSH!!!"

"Okay. I'll go get Gina." Ty said walking to the door, "Hi. I think it's time."

"I know it's fucking time!" Alex snapped.

"Okay, It is time." Ty said. Gina chuckled as she walked in.

"How are you doing, Alex?" She asked.

"There's so much pressure." She moaned. "I need to push really bad."

"All right. Let's see." Gina said examining Alex, "Well, it looks like you can start pushing soon. You're ten centimeters."

"Thank the lord!!" Alex threw up her hands. Ty smiled nervously.

"It's time?" He asked. Gina nodded.

"Yes it is. Let me get Dr. White." Gina smiled. Alex's lip trembled.

"It's really time, Ty." She whispered. Ty smiled nervously. The nurses started to rush around the room, trying to get everything ready. Alex's heart was pounding in her chest. She was so excited and yet so scared. Dr. White walked in with a smile.

"I hear you're ready to start pushing." He said. Alex nodded.

"Oh yes. I am." She said. The nurses started to prep her. Dr. White chuckled.

"All right. You look completely dilated and the baby has dropped beautifully." He said, "When you're ready, on your next contraction."

"Really?" Alex asked. Dr. White nodded. She smiled looking up at Ty.

"You'll do fine." He said. Alex's body started to tense.

"Oh god"

"Push, Alex." Dr. White said as he washed his hands. Alex took in a deep breath, pushed her chin to her chest, and started to push. There was so much pain; she couldn't explain it to anyone.

"Oh fuck." She cried out collapsing against the bed. "Oh god. That sucked." Ty smiled softly.

"Next contraction push with all you've got." Dr. White said. Alex nodded. As if I wouldn't, She thought. Already she could feel her contraction swelling. She took in a deep breath and started to push.

"Oh….fuck." She cried through clenched teeth. There was so much pressure, but pushing made it feel a lot better. "Mother of god." She moaned running her hand over her head.

"Are you okay?" Ty asked.

"No." She whimpered. "This is too much." Ty nodded slowly.

"You're doing fine baby. Soon, we'll have Jade." He said softly. Alex wiped a few tears.

"Contraction." She groaned, pushing again.

"Very good Alex. She's crowning." Dr White said sitting down in front of her. "Harder. Harder."

"I'm…trying." She groaned through her teeth.

"Come on." Dr white encouraged her. She exhaled looking at Ty.

"In one more hard push, you should have her head out." Dr. White said. Alex groaned.

"I want all of her our." Alex said, tears started rolling down her face.

"Soon, you will have her out." Dr. White said. "Next push, bear and push."

"No shit." Alex groaned. She looked as she started to pus again.

"Beautiful. She's coming, Alex. Push. That's a girl." Dr. White smiled, "Her head is out."

"It's out?" Alex smiled, tearing rolling down her cheeks. He nodded as he cleaned out the baby's nose and mouth.

"Yes. She's beautiful." Dr. White smiled. "In a few more pushes, you should have it. This next part is the hard part. It's her shoulders."

"Oh god." Alex moaned.

"You can do it baby." Ty whispered.

"I can't." Alex sobbed, "I can't."

"Yes you can, Baby." Ty whispered rubbing her back, "You can do it."

"I can't." She cried, "It's too hard."

"It's labour. It isn't suppose to be easy." Ty said. "You can totally do this. You run into burning buildings and save people. You can do this. Push for me. Push for Jade." Alex nodded slowly. "I love you, Alex."

"I love you too." She whispered.

"You ready?" Dr white asked. Alex nodded.

"I'm ready." She gripped Ty's numb hand tightly. She took in a deep breath and started to push.

"Very good, Alex. She's coming." Alex groaned loudly. It was burning. Everything was tearing. She took in another deep breath and pushed hard. There pain and then suddenly there was a sudden sensation of relief. Dr. White smiled brightly; "It's a girl." Tears spilled over Ty's eyes as Dr. White held up a slimy baby.

"Oh my god." Alex whispered as the baby was placed on her chest. "She's so beautiful." Alex cried. She ran her trembling hand over her daughter's head. Jade was certainly gorgeous. She had tanned skin. She had softly curly hair. She had gorgeous large blue eyes like her mother. Her screams were a beautiful music to Alex and Ty's ears.

"I've never seen anything so beautiful." Ty said. "She has ten fingers and ten toes." Alex kissed Jade ever so softly.

"Stop crying my love. Mommy and Daddy are here. We'll always be here." She whispered. Ty smiled proudly looking at his girls. He couldn't express how much joy and love was swelling in his soul and heart right now. Their angel had fallen right into their arms and their lives. Their lives were perfect now.
