"Oh ,Mel, are you ok?" Asked Chris running in coming to my side. "Did they hurt you?" asked Gordie pointing toward the door. "Who?" "Ace and Eyeball?" "You guys are insane they saved my life!!" I said throwing my arms around Chris. "Saved your life?" Asked Chris kissing my forehead a little confused.
"You guys I was mugged." I said As Chris sat down on the chair next to the bed taking my hand.
"Mugged!! did they hurt you?" Asked Gordie coming from the corner he was standing in earlier.
"Gordo, that's why I'm in the hospital." I said laughing a little. Chris started to laugh too, then Gordie joined in. "Oh, I'm so stupid sometimes." He said calming down from laughing now. He approached the bed and sat down in a chair next to me. The pain had started to escalate a lot. "Guys get a nurse or something." I said cringing from the pain, holding on to Chris's arm and digging my nails into it.
"Mel, that hurts." "Oh sorry that It hurt, just think of me." I said putting my hand on my heart and pointing to my self.
"Yes dear your right." He said kissing me and laughing. "Sir please get out of the way." The doctor said. The doctor came in and examined me. "Well, Melissa, I think it's time." He said putting rubber gloves on. "Now which one is the father?" He asked patiently waiting for my answer. I looked at Chris. "He is sir." I said pointing to Chris. He bent down and whispered in my ear, "Why me ,Mel?
"Because ,Chris, I love you." I said giving him a passionate kiss. "I love you too." He said holding my hand for support.
"No ,Melissa, please count to ten while pushing and you should have a baby in no time." The doctor said with a smile. "1..2..3..4..." I counted like that about three times and then. "Mel, dear you can stop pushing your beautiful baby girl is out." said Chris pointing to a baby wrapped in a hospital blanket. "Mel, she is very small, three pounds, five ounces." "But here you kids go." I smiled big a the whole time I couldn't wait to hold my baby, my baby, that kind of has a ring to it, but I like it.
"Miss do you have a name picked out?" I looked at Chris and then at my baby with her big blue eyes looking and crying at me.
"Yes, it's….Alexia Danielle Chambers." Chris looked at me in surprise. "Chambers?" "Chris I said you were the father, I think Alexia should know and even live with the man who helped her mother out in the worst situation." "Yeah I guess." Chris turned around a little and dug something out of his pocket.
"Mel, I was going to wait like a year or so, but I think this is the appropriate time." He said holding something in his hand that I couldn't quit see. "Melissa Lachance?" "Yeah?" I asked confused because he never said my full name, and never my last name. "Will you marry me?" I was in shock I was about to cry. "Hell yeah." I said kissing him with my, our, baby in my arms. He slipped a ring on my finger. "Sorry it's not spectacular, but I spent all I had on you." "Oh.. You are so sweet." I said kissing him again.
The next few weeks went great. Everyone was so happy for me. Chris and I planned to get married when Alexia was old enough to be the flower girl and when I and him were out of high school.
It was a fine life living with my new born daughter, taking every thing I learned from Brittany and using it on my daughter. I woke up on June 15,1962, to a dark room and the sound of my daughter crying of hunger. I got up and stumbled over clothes and shoes sitting on the floor and walked over to the crib.
"Hey baby what's wrong?" I said lifting her up. I walked to the dark corner and went and sat in the rocking chair. I rocked back and forth thinking that this wasn't actually that bad as everyone told me it would be. I looked down to see her looking up at me her big blue eyes having tears drip out of them, and her small body, held in my hands. I decided that I would carry her down the stairs and give her some warm milk. I walked slowly down the stairs her in my arms. The stairs creaked as I stepped one by one. I finally made it I walked through the living room, in the dark and put Alexia in her swing and went into the kitchen and on the stove warmed up her milk.
I finished and went into the living room and found Gordie sitting there holding her.
"Hey." I said standing there putting my hands on my hips. "What are you doing?" I asked him as he looked at Alexia. "Oh I heard you guys get up so I just decided to help out." He said smiling at me and then looking down at Alexia. "She's really cute and she looks a lot like you." He said still smiling.
I heard the croak in her throat and just knew she was going to cry.
"I think I should take her now she's pretty hungry." "Hell yeah you need to feed her she's so small." "Yeah you should of seen yourself about three years ago." I said grabbing Alexia and laughing at Gordie moving his mouth mocking me. "Yeah I was pretty skinny." "Yeah a tooth pick!!" I said Heading toward the stairs to feed her and take her back to bed. "Mel?" "Your and Chris are going to go far." "Thanks ,Gordo."
It was June 16, 1962. I was in the shower as my Aunt was down stairs feeding the baby. It was my birthday today, I was turning sixteen, but it seemed everyone had forgot, even Chris.
I got out of the steamy bathroom with the towel wrapped around my body and went into my bedroom. I went in and was finally glad that I could fit into my old cloths.
I went in and searched through my closet and finally picked out a pair of jeans and my favorite black shirt that I haven't been able to wear since February. I casually walked down the stairs to see my baby in my Aunts arms and Gordie snooping in the cabinets.
"Hey." I said surprised that everyone had forgot my birthday. I walked over and sat by my Aunt to take my baby and go outside and swing her. "I can take her if you want me to." I said giving my arms willingly to her. "Ok dear." I walked out holding her and went directly to the swing and started to sing to her.
I heard a few whispers in the house, but I figured it was nothing.
I swung back and forth, looking into her deep blue eyes, and when I looked I think I saw her wink at me for a split second.
"Hey." I looked up from my baby and saw my future husband Chris. He leaned down and gave me a passionate kiss. "Hey." I said kissing back.
"So what are you doing today?" "Probably nothing." I said as he touched the baby's head.
"She looks so much like you." He said smiling and laughing. "Thanks." "She has your beautiful eyes." "Thanks." I said kissing him. "You want to go out on the town, show our beautiful baby off." He said getting up and holding my hand awaiting for me to say "Sure why not"
I got up and walked into the living room and got the baby stroller out.
Please tell me what you think!! Srry it took me so long kind of, I had my 8th grade graduation dance.
