The days flew by quicker than Emma ever could have imagined. The
doctors proclaimed her baby to be healthy and ready to go home. Once there
and settled on the coach, Emma and Sean began discussing names for the
girl.
"I think we should name her Erin," Emma said.
"Naw, that's too much like a boy's name. How about Amanda?" Sean asked.
Emma wrinkled up her nose. For several days they had been trying to decide on a name. Neither of them could agree. Emma was partial to Erica, Erin, Emily, and Ella. Sean thought they should name her something like Amanda, Parker, or Laura.
"Well, fine then," Emma said. "How about we name her Cornelia?"
A look of horror spread across Sean's face.
"Are you crazy?" he asked. "She would be teased to DEATH!"
"Okay fine. How about Lisa?" Emma asked.
Sean mulled it over and over in his mind.
"Lisa," he said under his breath. "I like it."
"Alright then. You hear that baby? You're Lisa!" Emma said, gently holding the baby.
"Now, Emma, there is something I have to ask you. A long time ago, I heard you talking to J.T. You said he made a mistake, or rather that you both made a mistake. So I have to know. Are you one hundred percent sure that I am the father of our child?" Sean asked. "And that J.T. isn't?"
Emma blushed a deep red.
"Of course I am sure. You are the only one that...that I've been with," Emma said.
Sean sighed with relief. He had dreaded asking that question for nine months. He was almost afraid to hear the answer.
"The reason I blew up was, well, it seems so stupid now," Emma said. "We were partners on a project. He didn't do much of his work, and I didn't either. I was so stressed about being pregnant that it slipped my mind. It was a big project for English, and we both failed. I was mad about that and about everything. So I blew up. What an idiot I am."
"Not at all," Sean said. He leaned in and kissed her. She kissed him back.
Snake leaned in with a camera.
"Um, excuse me..." he said.
Emma and Sean broke apart, startled. Emma blushed and Sean coughed nervously.
"I just thought we should take some pictures," Snake said. "Is that okay?"
Emma nodded and leaned in close to Sean, both of them holding Lisa. The parents smiled proudly as Snake took the picture.
"What a beautiful family," he said.
The End
