Chapter 4
CONNIE'S P.O.V
I was wheeled through the many corridors that led to the delivery rooms. Julie was running at my side, clutching my clammy hand, tears were spilling down her reddened cheeks in fright of our whole situation. Here she was doing her best to support me through my own fears but also supporting her own fears for me as well. The only thing that would make me feel right at this second would be Guy but it didn't look as though he was going to make it.
"I want Guy, Julie". I whispered through my clenched teeth.
"I know you do and so do I". She replied, smiling as best she could.
GUY'S P.O.V
Portman rounded the last corner and slammed the breaks on outside the entrance, I almost burst through the van's door, with Adam and Charlie hot on my heels. I ran through numerous amounts of corridors, following the main signs to the delivery room, by now all the ducks were following closely. There was one thing on my mind - I had to get to Connie. I would never forgive myself if I missed this. At the end of the corridor I turned right and followed the path that lay ahead of me, soon I saw a trolley with two nurses and a doctor pushing it. Not knowing whether it was Connie or not, I began running even faster but still I wasn't quite quick enough. Within a split second I saw a flash of golden blonde hair giving me the answer I needed.
"JULIE". I hollered.
"Guy"? She stopped in her tracks and looked down the corridor toward me who might I add was still running.
As I got closer, I noticed Julie's cheeks were red and tears had streamed her cheeks. Panic struck me and I noticed Connie breathing heavily on the trolley.
"What's wrong"? I yelled.
"The doctor will explain". Julie thrust some scrubs into my hands then stepped back so I could get closer to Connie.
"Hey you". I took her hand. "Told you I wouldn't miss it for anything". I winked at her then pecked her forehead.
"You nearly didn't". She managed a smile between breaths. At this point the trolley pushed the doors open separating us from the ducks who had carried on running with us.
JULIE'S P.O.V
"Jules, what's the matter"? Adam asked pulling me toward him. I looked at him, unable to answer for a second. The full adrenalin had just hit me and I was absolutely petrified for Connie, even though Guy was with her now, it didn't mean the baby was going to be any less stressed. "Is it the baby"? He continued probing.
"The baby's started getting stressed, they may have to do a caesarean". I nodded. The ducks all fell quiet and subdued. I could tell what they were thinking, mainly because it was probably the same as I was thinking. Although this baby meant the world to my two best friends but I hated to sound so pessimistic but I would rather the baby died if it meant my friend would live. These thoughts continued running through my mind bringing more tears with them. Adam held me close but even his comfort couldn't stop the fear.
CONNIE'S P.O.V
"Right Connie, PUSH". The doctor told me.
"I AM PUSHING". I yelled back at him gripping Guy's hand tightly. I was still going for a natural birth, the doctor had done a final check and decided that it would be safe enough. I let out a blood curdling scream and continued pushing what felt like a basketball or something out of me.
"Almost over Con's, almost over". Guy continued trying his calming influence. I gave him a dirty look as if to say 'shut up, your not the one laying here'. "So what are we gonna call it if it's a boy"? He asked obviously trying to take my mind off everything.
"Guy". I pleaded for him to shut up.
"Yeah, Guy Germaine junior does have a nice ring to it". He smiled evilly.
"We are NOT calling it Guy junior". I said through gritted teeth.
"One last push Connie". The doctor ordered. I began pushing and screaming at the same time and then suddenly that was it. "Well done Connie, you have a lovely baby girl". The doctor handed me our baby wrapped in a pink blanket, he then looked to the floor where Guy was laid.
"Oh my God, Guy". I yelped.
"Don't worry Connie, he's not the first father to faint". He told me reaching for a small glass of water and pouring it over his face. Guy suddenly awoke and jumped to his feet. The doctor left us.
"Oh Connie, she beautiful, just like her mom". He cooed over her.
"I'm so glad you made it, I was so scared that you wouldn't". I felt slightly emotional.
"What and you think I'd miss this. Not on your life". He laughed gently. "I'll just go let the others know". He pecked my forehead and left me looking adoringly at our daughter.
GUY'S P.O.V
I walked through the doors leading to the waiting room, just feeling a little light headed. Before going through the last door, I looked through the little window and saw most of the ducks sat down with the exception of Julie who was pacing the floor with Charlie and Adam trying to cam her. I walked through and everyone stopped staring at me.
"It's a girl". I spoke softly then everything went blurry.
JULIE'S P.O.V
"It's a girl". Guy spoke rather softly and slurred, then in a split second his body hit the floor. We all rushed to him and it became apparent he had simply fainted. I grabbed the can of cold soda Averman had been holding for the past half an hour.
"Hey". He squealed as I took it from his hands.
"You weren't drinking it". I retorted as I tipped a little over his face. His eyes fluttered open straight away. Not waiting any longer, I shoved the can back into Averman's hands and ran toward the delivery room where Connie was. I entered the room and Connie looked up and smiled warmly.
"Hi". She whispered.
"Hey, how you doing"? I whispered back.
"I'm ok". She replied.
"Connie, she is the most beautiful little thing". I cooed over the small bundle in Connie's arms.
"Do you want to hold her"?
"Erm, sure". I took the bundle from Connie and sat on the chair next to the bed.
"Thank-you". Connie whispered.
"What for"?
"For everything you've done for me all weekend and especially for today". Tears erupted from her eyes.
"I hardly did anything".
"You did more than you'll ever know". She grasped one of my hands making us both well up with tears. "Where's Guy"? She finally asked.
"Last I saw he was laid on the floor just coming round". I giggled.
"Not again". Connie joined in. Just at that second the rest of the ducks entered and all began cooing over the baby.
"Come on then what's her name"? Charlie finally asked.
"We haven't got one yet". Guy replied.
"How about Jasmine"? Russ said.
"Courtney"? Ken asked.
"Kori". Fulton offered his suggestion.
"Charlie". Charlie implied.
"Yeah right Spazway". Guy laughed.
"Amber"? Julie suggested.
"Chloe"? Averman offered.
"CHLOE"! both me and Guy said at the same time.
Right I think this is a better place to end this chapter! I never actually planned to go any further than the birth so here it ENDS :*( Thank you for all your wonderful reviews I couldn't thank you all enough!!!!!
