Week 40

11:33 am

Bug held Maya on his hip. She was whining about the lack of food in her stomach.

"hold on, Baby." Bug said as Lily paid for three buffet meals.

"Momma has the plates." Lily waddled to their table. "Why don't you go get her a plate first?" Bug nodded and slid Maya into the highchair.

"Momma, I hungry now." Maya said.

"UI know." She said, "Daddy is getting you some food, okay?"

"Kay." Maya said running her hand through her dark curls. lily picked her plate up waiting for Bug to come back. She was starving. Finally, Bug came back.

"Here you go butterfly." Bug put the plate in front of her.

"Yay! Thanks!" She squealed. Bug chuckled softly. Lily smiled as she went up to the salad bar. She loved buffets. it was a cheap way to have a filling meal. She filled her plate up with lettuce. Something spilled against her legs. She reached down and saw that she was standing in a puddle. Her eyes widened.

"Oh my God." a small smile came across her face. She waddled over to the table. "Are you guys almost done?"

"What? No." Bug frowned, "We just started."

"I know, but my water broke." Lily said. Bug dropped his fork.

"Wh-What? Your water broke?" He asked.

"Yeah." She said as she rubbed her belly. "Can we go to Jordan's now?" Bug jumped up and nodded.

"Come on, Baby." He grabbed her hand and started to walk away.

"Daddy?" Maya looked at him. Bug stopped.

"Maya, I forgot you." he ran and scooped her up.

12:00 PM

Jordan opened up the door and stared at the couple.

"Is she in labour?" She asked. Bug nodded as they walked into the apartment.

"Yeah." he said. Lily smiled as she plopped down on the couch.

"I'm fine, guys." She said. bug and Jordan were whispering in the corner. She glanced at Woody. He was standing in the kitchen. He looked petrified. lily chuckled. bug walked over to the couch.

"Okay. Let's go." he said Lily shook her head.

"No. I'm fine where I am." She said.
"Funny. We need to get to the hospital." he said.

"No. I don't want to go to the hospital. I want to have the baby here." Lily said. Jordan's eyes widened.

"here? As in my apartment?" She asked. Woody groaned.

"Yeah. I don't want any strangers to be a part of this." Lily said. Bug shook his head. "You two are doctors."

"Medical examiners, lily." Bug said.

"Yeah, I know, but doctors never the less." Lily said, "how babies have you delivered?"

"One and I almost dropped her." Jordan said.

"One, but not my own child." Bug said, "We really should go to the hospital."

"Woody, have you ever delivered a baby?" Lily asked. Woody nodded very slowly.

"Three...My cousins...and...and....and like twenty-one calves." Woody said. Lily smiled. Both Jordan and Bug sighed.

"I'll go make up my bed to make her more comfortable." Jordan said as she left the room. Bug looked at his wife.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" He asked. Lily nodded.

"Yes, Bug, I want to do this." She replied.

"What is something goes wrong?" Bug asked.

"The hospital is only a phone call away, but nothing will go wrong." Lily said. Bug was silent for a moment.

"I should call Nigel. I don't want him to feel left out." bug said. Lily smiled softly and nodded.

2:01 PM

Lily sat in Jordan's bed. She was feeling okay. The contractions were closer and painful, but she was doing okay. Woody walked in with a glass of water.

"Here." he said.

"Thanks." lily patted the bed next to her, "Come sit. I want to talk to you."

"Oh...Okay..." woody was hesitant at first, but then sat down, "It's about Jordan isn't it?"

"I don't know. Is it?" Lily asked.

"Don't start getting all psycho therapy on me." He said. Lily chuckled.

"I'm not." She said, "I just want the two of you to be happy. Jordan deserves to be married with children."

"She will be, I promise." Woody said.

"Good." Lily smiled, "How's Maya?"

"Jordan and Nigel are eating lunch with her." woody said. Lily nodded as she started to tense up.

"Oh God." She groaned.

"Oh God." woody stood up, "Should I get Bug?"

"No!" Lily grabbed his hand, "If you leave, I will tear your arms off and beat you with them." Lily moaned loudly as Bug walked in.

"Contraction?" he ran to her side and took her hand. Woody backed away.

"Lily isn't sweet anymore." Woody Whispered.

5:05 PM

Bug sat at Lily's bedside. Her mood had quickly changed from cheery to devil-like. He wasn't sure what to do for her anymore.

"Maya is watching tv with Nigel." He said.

"So?" Lily asked.

"I thought you'd want to know how our daughter was doing." Bug said.

"Well, I don't." Lily snapped.

"What's your problem?" Bug asked her. Lily narrowed her eyes.

"I'm mad at you." She said.

"Why? What did I do now?" Bug asked.

"Jordan is here talking about Woody. She actually wants a nice wedding." Lily said.

"Well, that's wonderful. Why does that make you mad at me?" He asked her.

"Because we got married at City hall." Lily said, "I want a big wedding." bug sighed.

"You wanted to get married at city hall." He said.

"I don't want to anymore." Lily whimpered. Bug closed his eyes. She was being ridiculous.

"We could always renew our vows and do it all up. White dress, church, reception, everything." he said. Lily looked at him. Tears still brimming in her eyes. A small smile came across her face.

"Really?" She whispered. Bug nodded as he pushed her red hair away from her face.

"Yes really. I want you to have everything you want." bug said.

"I w-want this baby out." She moaned through a contraction. Bug held her close. He could feel her body tense beneath him.

"Breath, baby. breath through it." Bug said. Lily continued to moan. Bug's heart thumped in his chest. Soon, he would have a son soon.

7:23 PM

Bug was pacing back and forth through the living room. Nigel stared at him.

"You're going to wear a hole into Jordan's floor." Nigel said.

"I'll replace it." Bug mumbled.

"Right." Nigel said. Maya looked at Nigel.

"Bebe now?" She asked. Nigel shook his head.

"Still have a few hours, Sweet one." he said. Maya sighed and cuddled into Nigel. Woody walked out of Jordan's room.
"How is she doing?" Bug asked.
"You guys should've went to the hospital." Woody said.

"How is she doing, Woodrow?" Bug asked.

"She's okay. She's in pain, But she's okay." Woody said. "It should be a few hours yet." Bug sighed.
"All right." he said, "Thanks for being here, Woody."

"It's all right." he said, "It's giving me practice."

"I'm having our kids in a hospital." Jordan said as she at popcorn. Woody smiled softly at her.

"I will do whatever you want when you have our kids." Woody smiled.

"Is she up for visitors?" Bug asked. Woody shrugged.

"Maybe. Try it. The worse she could do is kill you." Woody smirked. Bug walked into the room cautiously.

"Lily?" He looked at his wife. She looked like she was in utter misery. "Hey Baby." Lily looked at him.

"I don't want anymore children." She whimpered. bug nodded.

"All right. One boy and one girl is perfect." bug got on the bed next to her. he cuddled with Lily.

"I hurt so much, B-Bug." She groaned.

"I know, Sweetheart." he said softly.

"M-Maya okay?" She whispered. bug nodded.

"Nigel is trying to get her to sleep." Bug said, "Woody said the baby will be here in a few hours."

"Good. I want my son in my arms." Lily whimpered.
"Soon, baby, soon." Bug whispered.

10:17 PM

Bug stared at his wife. She was sweaty and moaning. He stood up.

"Do you want me to go get Woody?" He asked. Lily nodded.

"yes. Yes." She moaned. Bug walked out of the room.

"Woody, she really needs you. I think it's time." Bug said. Woody looked nervous.

"Oh!" Woody stared at him with large eyes, "Okay." Bug glanced at Nigel and Maya who were sound asleep on the couch.

"Let's go have a baby!" Jordan grinned walking into the bedroom. "We're having a baby!!"

"I'm having a baby. you're merely watching me." Lily mumbled.

"You've got that right." Woody said, "Okay...Ahhh.."

"can she push?" Bug asked.

"L-Let me look." Woody lifted up the sheet, "Excuse me Lily."

"What ever." Lily muttered a Woody looked between her legs.

"Wow! Ah...Yeah, she's ready to start pushing whenever she wants to." Woody said.
"This is so exciting, but yet so scary." Jordan smiled watching her best friend.

"Oh God." Lily groaned.

"Push, Lily." Bug took her hand. Lily gritted her teeth and began to push. Jordan winced. Maybe one baby with Woody, She thought.

"Good." Lily moaned and exhaled.

"That was good, Lily, really good." Woody grinned.

"Shut up." Lily moaned.
"Sorry." Woody grinned a towel an put it below Lily.

"I don't want to do this." Lily moaned, "I don't want a baby."

"It's too late, Lily." Bug said, "Our son is on his way."

"Oh God." She began to groaned. Bug rubbed her back as she pushed again.

"That's it." Bug whispered. "You're doing wonderful." Lily whimpered. Jordan stared at Woody with wide eyes.

"This is too much." Jordan whispered.

"Yeah." Woody said. He looked at Lily and Bug. "I can see his hair."

"Hear that, Lil? He has hair." Bug said.

"Shut...Up." Lily groaned and began to push. This pain would stop soon. She had to keep that in mind.

"Wow...His head is out." Woody whispered.

"Clean his mouth out." Jordan said. Woody nodded.

"His head is out!" Bug said.

"Good." Lily groaned.

"This is totally cool." Jordan said.

"Yeah." Lily mumbled. "It sucks too."

"And it's wonderful." Bug said. Lily gave him a look. "Well, it is."

"Gotta push." Lily moaned.

"Push, Lily." Woody said as he supported the baby's head. lily gritted her teeth and began to push. This was the hard part. She knew it was. She pushed even harder. "Almost, Lily." she exhaled.

"I cant." She whispered.
"yes you can." bug said "You had Maya and you can have this one."

"May...be." Lily groaned and started to push again.

"This is the past push, Lily." Woody said.

"Good!" She cried loudly as she pushed. There was so much pain and then suddenly, the baby slid into Woody's hands.

"Oh my!" Woody exclaimed.

"is he okay?" Lily panted. Woody nodded an held him up.

"He's perfect." Woody said. The baby started to cry. Lily's lips trembled.

"Oh God." She whispered.

"My Boy." Bug whispered. Woody stood up and placed the boy on his mother's chest.

"Wow." Jordan smiled.

"Hi there." Lily whispered. Tears spilled over onto her cheeks. The baby was gorgeous. he looked so much like Maya: dark brown eyes and dark brown hair.

"What's his name?" Jordan asked.

"What?" Bug looked at her.

"Does your son have a name?" She asked. bug smiled.

"Taj Mahesh." He said looking at his son, "A strong Hindu name for a strong little boy." Lily pressed her lips to Taj's head. He was finally here and he was perfect. Lily was ins seaventh heaven.
