P POV
"Peyton, sweetie, do you realise that you are in labour?" Dr Gellar asked. "No. am I really?" I asked. She nodded. "I want you to go to the hospital now ok?" Dr Gellar asked. "I can't. I have the baby furniture coming today." I said. "Peyton!" Jake said. "Jake!" I said. "Do you feel any pain at all?" Dr Gellar asked. "My ankles hurt." I said. "Ok, go home and wait for your furniture. After it comes I want you to go to the hospital immediately ok?" "Got it. I'll see you in a few hours." I said pulling myself up. "Bye. Thank you." Jake said taking my arm and helping me the rest of the way up.
"I cannot believe you." Jake said laughing after we got outside. "What?" I asked putting my hands on my hips. "Oh! I can't go to the hospital because we have furniture coming? Seriously Peyton!" "Well Xander does need his furniture for his room." I said. "Whatever. Can I see your cell phone, I need to call my parents to tell them to go pick up Jenny from Luke's." Jake said.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
B POV
"Hello?" I said. "Hey Brooke." Peyton said. "What's up Peyton?" I asked. "Well Jake's parents are coming to get Jenny." "Why?" "Because Xander has decided to make his arrival into this world. Or so the doctor says. I honestly don't feel a thing, so I'm at home waiting for my baby furniture then going to the hospital." Peyton said. "Ok... call me when you leave." "Will do. I'll talk to you soon." "Ok bye." "Bye."
"Who was that?" Lucas asked coming in & wrapping his arms around my waist. "Peyton. Yuck! You're all sweaty! What were you, Nathan, & Jenny doing out there?" I asked. "Just running around. I'll go change." Lucas said kissing my forehead and walking off towards our bedroom.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
P POV
"Hi. I'm Peyton Sawyer." I said to the nurse at the front desk of the maternity ward. "Oh hello! Your doctor called earlier and said you'd be coming. We have a room ready for you. Hold on, I'll go get you a wheel chair." The nurse said walking away. "Is that really necessary?" I asked turning to Jake and raising an eyebrow. "Hospital procedure I guess. You feeling ok? No pain yet?" Jake asked. "Nope. Maybe the doctor lost her min—" "I don't think that's the case" Jake said cutting me off. The nurse came back with the wheel chair. "Here you go sweetie." The nurse said. "Thanks." I said forcing myself to smile, and then sit down into the damm chair. Good thing I sat down because my first contraction hit me right there. "Hey Peyt, you ok?" Jake asked. "Oh yeah, just peachy." I said glaring at him. "OK, come on sweetie, lets get you to your room so you can change, and the doctor can check and see how far you are dilated." The nurse said.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
N POV
Hailey walked into Luke's & Brooke's living room where we were all just hanging out and playing with Bella. Jenny had just left like two minutes earlier. "Jake just called, Peyton is at the hospital now." Hailey said. "How's she doing?" Brooke asked. "She's four centimetres dilated & just starting to feel contractions now Jake said." "Really?" Brooke asked. Hailey nodded her head. "You want to be there don't you Brooke?" Lucas asked. Brooke nodded. "Go I'll take care of Bella." Lucas said. "Are you sure?" Brooke asked. "Yes, go Brooke." Lucas said. "I don't know... " "You are just nervous about leaving Bella for an extended period of time." Lucas said. "Come on, Nathan and I will go with you. It'll do you some good Brooke." Hailey said. "It will. You take Bella EVERYWHERE." I said. "Exactly. She's coming with me." Brooke said. "Fine." Lucas groaned. "Lets go." Hailey said grabbing her keys.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
3 HOURS LATER
P POV
"Peyton, are you sure you don't want that epidural right now? The anaesthesiologist is going into surgery in fifteen minutes, and might not be able to come and give one later." The nurse said coming into my room to check on me. "I'd get the thing Peyton. Trust me, Bella came out the natural way and it hurt like crazy. She's worth it though." Brooke said rocking back and forth on her feet with a sleeping Bella in her arms. "Fine I'll take the thing now." I said. "Ok, you are 6 centimetres dilated and I will be right back with the anaesthesiologist." The nurse said leaving the room. "You are doing great Peyton." Jake said squeezing my hand. Luke came into the room. "My mom is coming to get Bella Brooke." Lucas said. "What? Why?" Brooke asked. "Because the maternity ward is no place for a nine month old baby." Lucas said. "Plus you need to spend some time apart from her Brooke." Lucas continued. "Whatever Luke." Brooke said rolling her eyes.
5 HOURS LATER
P POV "Hey, how ya feeling?" Jake asked when I woke up. I'd fallen asleep after the epidural. "Tired, but no pain what-so-ever. Is everyone still here?" I asked. "Nathan and Hailey are, Luke and Brooke left two hours ago to spend time with their baby." Jake said. I nodded. Dr. Gellar walked in. "Hi sweetie. Just here to see how far along you are." Dr. Gellar said. "How are you feeling?" she asked. "Tired but no pain." I said. "Ok, but it's time we got you to the delivery room" Dr. Gellar said. "Oh God." I said. "What? What's the matter Peyton?" Jake asked. "What if I'm a terrible mother? What if he hates me Jake?" I asked with tears in my eyes. "Don't worry, you'll be a great mother." Jake said. The doctor started wheeling me down the hall. "Are you sure?" I asked Jake. "Positive. Look how good you are with Bella and Jenny." Jake said. "Yeah but they aren't MINE!" I said. "You'll do great. Trust me." Jake said. "You better be right about this." I said.
They wheeled me into the delivery room and set everything up. "Ok Peyton, when I count to three I want you to bring your knees up to your chest and push ok?" Dr. Gellar asked. I nodded. "Ok, on 3, 1-2-3 PUSH!" I did as I was told and started pushing. Since I had the epidural it felt like I was making faces at the doctor. "Ok, stop for a minute Peyton. You are doing great. Ok, on three again, 1-2-3 push." Dr. Gellar said. I grabbed Jake's hand and started pushing again. "You are almost there Peyton" Jake said. "Ok, stop pushing. The baby's head is out. One more push and you are done ok? Push Peyton. You are doing great, beautiful even Peyton, almost done, ok stop." Dr. Gellar said. She cleaned out his mouth and nose, then I heard I cry. I got tears in my eyes. "Here you go mom." The doctor said handing him to me. "He's perfect Jake. Just perfect." I said. "Yeah he is." Jake said kissing my forehead. I kissed Xander's teeny tiny little hands, and ran my finger over his cheek. This was my baby boy.
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
EPILOGUE
Ok, everyone graduated from Tree Hill High school. Everyone, but Jake went to New York to go to school. Jake lives in Connecticut with Jenny and his parents and goes to school there.
Hailey is majoring in law, Nathan in psychology, Lucas in medicine, Brooke in drama, and Peyton is in business arts.
