Ch 6 Unexpected

The next weeks went by in a blur as I got ready for the baby. Its due in only one more week. I had a doctors appointment with Dr. McCoy every other day and spent a lot of time with Kurt and Kitty. I spent a lot of time practicing on Sarah just for the fun of it.

The day after Kitty and I went shopping for all of the stuff for the baby I awoke to sounds of hammering in the room adjoining mine. I got up and went to investigate. What I found was all of the X guys painting the room a pale green to match the baby stuff that Kitty and I had gotten the previous day. They had decided that just having furniture was not enough and that the room should be properly done and ready for the baby as soon as it's born. They painted a mural on the wall with a jungle scene that matched the baby blanket we got for the bed and put in an adjoining door to my room so that I could get in there easier. They connected baby monitors to my room and all around the mansion like they did for Sarah so if they need to be downstairs when the babies are asleep.

They had the room ready in only a day. I felt ready for the birth except one thing. I realized that even though the baby and I lost Remy we still had his large Cajun family to be there and support us. Jean Luc told me before I left that I would always be a member of the guild and the family. He said to call if we ever need any thing. I think that my baby and I need some family. Bayville is full of my family but I really want some of Remy's family to also be here when the baby is born. So I called Jean Luc to see if it would be possible for some one to come.

"Hello?"

"Hi, Jean Luc. It's me Rogue."

"Hi, are you ok? How is my grandchild?"

"We are both fine. But I was wondering if I could ask you a favor?"

"Sure, anything. You are family."

"I was wondering if someone could come down here for the birth. I really want someone from the family to be there when the baby is born."

"Ok. Someone will be there. I will try to come myself but if I cannot, then someone will. Is everything going ok with your friends?"

"Yeah. Better then I thought it would. It's going great."

"That's wonderful. Someone will be there as soon as possible."

"Ok, thanks. Love ya."

"Love ya too, chere."

I went to bed that night felling a lot better and completely prepared for the birth of my baby.
