Yes the last chapter is finally here, and it is short, stupid, and full of jokes but...
Chapter 15
The Last Chapter....Perhaps
Shayera walked towards the window, she slowly and groggily turned the blinds to open them. A vibrant, luminous white light shot through the window and pierced Shay's eyes. She groaned a few swear words and pulled on a turtleneck over her head.
It was January, and Shay was in her last month but she had a good three weeks to go. Wally had volunteered to take Ira up to his cabin with Linda (they had made up a few months ago). Shayera instantly agreed because it would give John and herself sometime to talk about what was going to happen with the baby.
But unfortunately for her, John got called away to an intergalactic war, which they needed back up for. He promised to be back in a day but that was three days ago.
She sighed and turned on the kettle, it was freezing out. She didn't know why John had to live in such a cold city, but whenever she complained she would always hear the same reply.
"It's good to live where it's cold; it build up the immune system."
"Yeah it builds up the immune system," Shayera said aloud to herself, "Yeah tell me that when I have a hypothermic baby."
"You're always complaining," John said from behind her.
"Holy Shi... John," she swatted him playfully, "You idiot you almost gave me a heart attack."
"So this is the thanks I get for coming home, a rude comment about my kid, and a brutal punch to my gut."
"Number one, it my kid to, and number to that was a swat, I don't have the strength to hit. I have to save all my energy on keeping warm," she replied back.
"Well," he said suggestively as he walked up and kissed her, "I can think of a few ways to warm up."
"And I can think of a few reasons, to not use your ways" she laughed.
"You never want to use my way," he whined.
"I used your way twice and look what happened," she said pointing to her swelling stomach.
"Touché," he agreed with an eyebrow cocked. Then he decided to change the subject, "Is Ira still with Wally?"
"Yep, and you and I still have to pick out names," she added pouring tea from the kettle.
"Ugh, that's boring," he replied then looked at Shayera's drink of choice, "I thought you drank coffee."
"I do but it's bad for the baby. Boring, if it's so boring I'll just name the kid Chair," she said using Wally's old plan.
"Only if the middle name is Face," John stated as he poured himself some coffee.
"Sometimes I don't understand you. You're so lazy, all we have to do is one thing and you can't take that serio..." She stopped in mid sentence as a pain swept over her, an eerily familiar pain.
"I'm lazy?" John asked his back turned, "You don't even finish your sentences."
"John.....you.........idiot," Shayera groaned as she grasped the counter with one hand and her stomach with the other, trying to steady herself, "I'm in labor."
John whipped around, "You're in what?" he asked grabbing onto her.
"You have to call J'onn," She said calmly but seriously.
"What? Why? Aren't we going to a hospital?" he asked back.
"No, I have to have the baby here, It'll just be a waste of time, space and money if I go to a hospital, plus J'onn kind know the Thanagarian anatomy."
"But where are you going to have it I mean there is no logical..."
"Okay new plan, I'll make my way to the bed and lie down, and call John mentally. You can clean up my water which just broke on your hardwood floor, hmm?"
"Aww, Shay you honestly couldn't wait?"
"LIKE I CAN CONTROL IT!" she screamed back.
"Uncle Wally tonight can we have smores again?" Ira asked as she held her Uncle Wally's hand as he opened the door to the cabin.
"Yes but only if you and Linda don't eat them all this time," he answered.
Ira giggled and Linda gave Wally that familiar look, she walked over the answering machine on the table.
"Look Honey, that's strange there are six new messages," she said as she hit the button. Wally and Ira sat on the couch and Linda soon joined, they all listened.
Message One:
"Hey Wally, Linda," John said in a normal voice, "Hi sweetie," he said in an especially loving one, "I just called to say that Shay went into labor three weeks early and wow we're having a blast without you, when you get this call me back."
Tuesday January 8th, 10:29AM
Message Two:
"Hey Wally it's me again, just checking to see if you were home because Shayera kicked me out of the room because she said I was annoying, umm call me when you get this."
Tuesday January 8th, 10:31AM
Message Three:
"Hi Wally, Linda, Princess, Umm Shay's still in labor, don't both calling just start driving, oh and can you bring some diapers? We forgot to get some, thanks."
Tuesday January 8th, 10:34AM
Message Four:
"Hi Wally, Linda, Muffin, It's me and she's still in labor. Jeez how long can it take. I mean Rome wasn't built in a day but my God...............call me."
Tuesday January 8th, 10:39AM
Message Five:
"Is your refrigerator running? Well you better go and catch it. Ha I'm just playing, Shay still won't let me back in the room and we haven't choosing a name yet so I..."
"Will you shut the Fuc..." Shayera screamed.
Tuesday January 8th, 10:42AM
Message Six:
"Shayera told me to phone back one more time and apologize for both of us because we've acted rudely. Oh and she had the baby, it's a..."
BEEEEP WE'RE SORRY YOUR TAPE IS USED UP...
Tuesday January 8th 11:07AM
"I don't believe this!" Wally sighed angrily at the machine, and grabbed his car keys from the table, "Alright, come sweeties, let's go."
Alright so that is the last chapter and is ends abruptly for one reason. I was thinking of doing a sequel story revolving around the children of the League, and not just BMWW and GLHG either, but I'd like to know what you think so please review with your opinion, it's been fun...Thank you -Abby
