Bella 51
A few months later…..
"Jason, I think I am in labor." She said turning over in bed as she rubbed her stomach, the pains were coming frequently.
"Are you sure?"
"I have no idea, but the pain is coming about every 20 minutes and has been for the past 2 hours."
"Okay, I will call Gemma." He said nervously as he looked at her.
"Gemma is here remember? She stayed the night."
"Okay, yeah, forgot about that." He said rubbing the side of his face as he looked at her.
"Is the great never-lose-your-cool Jason Morgan flustered?" She smiled as he looked at her.
"Just a bit."
"Calm down babe, everything will be okay?" She said looking at him as she grasped his hand and pulled him down for a kiss.
"You're in labor, how can you say that everything is going to be okay?"
"Trust me, all I need is to get to the hospital, are you ready?" Sam winked at him.
"Almost." He said as he pulled his jacket and watched her slowly trying to make her way out of the bed, he ran over to her and helped her.
"That's better."
About two hours later ……
"How are we doing Samantha?" the doctor said taking a look at her progress as she lay in bed, Jason close by rubbing her back as she was doing her breathing exercises. Having him near her was the safest she had ever felt. "Okay, let's take a look shall we? Yep this baby is coming soon, you are about 2 centimeters away." He stopped and talked to the nurse on the way out as Jason looked down
"You're doing so good babe, I am so proud of you." He said to her.
"Jason thanks for being here with me." She said taking his hand in hers as she felt a strong wave of contraction wash over her body she looked at him.
"Jason, I need to push." She said unable to process it all.
"Are you sure? The doctor was just in here, he said you had two….."
"Jason Morgan if you don't get that doctor back in here right now, you are going to be the one delivering this kid!"
"Okay, I will be right back" he ran out the room and got the attention of both the doctor and the nurse as the came back in, checked her and sure enough the baby's head was crowning. Jason gave her his hand to hold onto and got down near her to wipe the sweat off her brow.
"I don't want to hurt you Jason."
"Believe me, you can't hurt this hit man believe me." He said out loud as both the doctor and the nurse glanced at him.
"I have to push Jason." She said frantically.
As one of the nurses watched her vital signs and that of the baby's the other ones worked around her frantically as she was having a hard time NOT pushing.
"Scoot down here Sam" the nurse said helping her to do so.
"Okay, are we ready?" She asked seeing Sam nod her head. "Okay daddy, be her support okay?"
"Yes."
"On the count of three you push as hard as you can okay babe?" The nurse said holding her other hand, you are going to do just fine as Sam started to cry.
"One… two.. three….Push." The doctor said as Samantha pushed as hard as she could for as long as she could, finally letting out a primal moan at the long ending of it all.
"Take a few deep breaths, how are you feeling?"
"Its hurting. "She said to her.
"Yeah, that tends to happen, okay Sam again at the count of three, take a deep breath, one …two.. Three.." She said as Sam pushed the baby as hard as she could as she breathed in she looked up at Jason he was right there with her coaching her on, her own little cheering section.
"One more good push and we will be welcoming this new little one into the world, are you ready?" She shook her head
"Just a minute." She said as she glanced up at Jason "I love you so much." She cried.
"You are doing so good angel."
"Okay, Sam let's get this baby out okay?" She said watching her nod. "Take a deep breath, one …two…."
And with the count of three Sam pushed as hard pushing the baby all the way out of her, as she let out a scream that mingled with the baby's fierce scream. Jason walked around and saw the baby and tears poured out of his eyes. "you have a beautiful baby girl Sam."
"Daddy do you want to cut the cord?"
"Yes" he said cutting it and then walked over to her and held his new daughter in his arms.
"Oh gd she's beautiful Sam, look at her." He said as he brought herover closeand handed her to her mommy as Sam looked at her and fell in love, then looked back at Jason.
"Does this precious little girl have a name?"
"Gracie Marie Morgan" He said as he leaned down and kissed Sam.
Six months later….
She stood looking out at the cobblestone streets below as she held Gracie, Jason was in the other room getting Abigail dressed for the gala party tonight for Bella magazine. It was Sam's birthday and she was dressed in the most beautiful cream colored floor length gown, she took Jason's breath away when he saw her, walking up behind her he moved her hair to one side and kissed her neck as she leaned into him.
"Are you ready to go angel?"
"Ready as I will ever be." She said to him softly.
"Okay." He said taking Gracie from her arms as Sam walked over to dresser and grabbed her purse.
"Dada" She said as she looked up at her daddy, he leaned down and kissed her cheek, Abigail took Sam's hand as they headed out the door, down the stairs and to the waiting car below.
Twenty minutes later as they pulled up outside of the building both Anthony and Gemma were waiting for them outside to greet them. Jason handed Gracie to Gemma who was waiting with open arms for her and Abigail took off inside with Anthony. Once inside they found their table and sat down waiting for their dinner to be served. Afterwards while the cake was being served Jason stood by her and watched as Sam turned and looked up at him.
"Let's go outside shall we?" She took his hand and led him out on the veranda, it was beautiful much like that night all those years ago, the moon was hanging low in the sky and the stars were sparkling like diamonds. She was still unable to tear her gaze away from him he simply took her breath away then and more so even now, As he stepped closer to her he knew that she was without a doubt the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. He was so in love with her and she with him as they stood and looked at each other for what seemed like an eternity between them.
"Dance with me" He said to her as he opened his arms to her she walked in and found her comfort and safety there, she ran her hands over his familiar body as they swayed to their music, then pulling back she looked up at him into those intense blue eyes.
"Kiss me please." She said in a soft whisper.
"I can't." He said to her as he caressed the side of her face.
"Why not?" She said as the distance between their lips were closing in on them, their lips brushed softly over each others.
"Because if I start I will never be able to stop." He said as he looked at her, his hands ran down over her body and she responded to his touch, in a frantic passion filled kiss as their tongues mingled between them in a delicious dance.
The End.
