Serena laid in her bed, breathing heavy, her contractions had increased in the last five minutes. Dr. Monroe sat between her legs, checking for any problems. Raye, Lita, Mina, Amy and Darien were all in the delivery room. Raye was patting Serena's head with a cold compress trying to help her out some. Amy was talking to her softly trying to calm her down. Darien was standing next to her, trying to be careful because since Serena started have contractions she wasn't too happy with him. Dr. Monroe looked up at Serena. "Alright Serena on the count of three I need you to push.alright?" Serena nodded, as Darien grasped her hand, she squeezed it then took a deep breath and began to push, she squeezed Darien with a newfound strength that he had him whimpering in pain but held on. Serena stopped lying back breathing heavy. Dr. Monroe smiled. "Good.... your doing great Serena.... just a couple more pushes and we'll be done okay?" Serena growled deeply at the doctor's happy demeanor. I don't see him pushing a kid out of him.... why the hell is he so happy for?! Raye patted her head with the compress again. Amy brushed her long hair out of her face and spoke softly. "Serena.... you need to calm down or your going to cause complications to the baby..." Serena nodded and took a deep breath. Darien slowly reached his hand over and gripped her hands again as she closed her eyes tight and pushed again her face becoming deep red. Serena laid back breathing heavy she was mumbling how she was going to rip the doctors...Before Darien interrupted her. "Serena baby.... you need to calm do-" Serena quickly turned to his voice growling deadly. "Shut up! Your the one who put her in me...I don't see you getting her out..." Darien was taken aback by her hostile demeanor but figured she would be fine in a minute. Dr. Monroe looked back up at the couple a grin was appearing under his mask at the couple. "Alright Serena.... one more push..." Serena nodded and watched the girls move closer as she tried to control her breathing. I'm gonna kill Darien for putting me through this... Serena closed her eyes squeezing Darien's hand and gave one last final push, she squeezed his hand tight, causing him to cry out in pain, she screamed out. "This is all your fault!" And with that one last scream, a newborn baby girl arrived. Celeste Almina Shields. 6lbs 11oz, 14 inches long. (AN: that's my newborn weight o) Serena laid back closing her eyes, Raye was now cleaning her face and the other girls were fussing tears streaming down their cheeks. Darien was crying some too from the birth and his almost broken hand. A young nurse brought over the now cleaned up newborn and placed her in her mother's arms. Serena smiled and touched the baby's face gently as tears streamed down her face. Her voice now had a soft maternal tone. "Hi.... I'm your mommy..." She watched as the raven-haired baby opened her eyes revealing identical cerulean eyes like her mother. Darien walked over resting his hand on her shoulder and smiled she turned her head looking up into his eyes smiling. Mina from across the room had a camera ready and took a picture of them like that remembering to keep that. Mina like Serena had given birth to a boy two months previous named Chase Andrew Sullivan (AN: LoL couldn't think of an English last name for Andrew...so used my best friend's last name) who was now being held by his daddy in the waiting room with the other guys. The nurse came back in a while later after Celeste was fed and brought her into the nursery. Serena closed her eyes now cleaned up and slowly drifting off Darien kissed her forehead and whispered softly to her. "I love you so much and my new beautiful daughter...." She smiled softly. "I love you and our new daughter too...." As she kissed him softly her body fell into exhaustion and she slowly fell asleep.
1 year later
Celeste and Chase were sitting in the playpen playing with blocks and other toys like that. Chase has just built a small block castle and then suddenly knocked it down. Celeste's giggles could be heard as Serena and Darien watched from the couch. Darien was sitting on the couch and Serena was sort of laying and sitting, her head rested against his chest watching contently. "Darien... do you think Celeste will be anything like us when we get older?" Darien smirked. "Well.... depends...." Serena raised a slender brow her cerulean full of wonder. "Depends on what?" Darien grinned. "Depends on what examples we set.... and I don't mean "those" kind of examples." Serena blushed and smacked his chest, both of them laughing as the looked back to Chase and Celeste to see them sleeping next to one another. Chase having this kind of protecting demeanor over Celeste even as she slept. Serena smiled. "I think we don't have to worry about boys with Cel... she has you and Chase scaring the boys away..." Darien chuckled holding her close. "Your just as bad my little minx...." He kissed her softly smiling, she returned the kiss deeply finally breaking it she closed her eyes thinking of what her daughter would be like when she got older and how her life would be. Little did she know her lovely daughter Celeste would be caught in a situation like her father... and Serena would have her own trials to deal with while trying to keep herself and her daughter sane. But that's not for 15 years...
