By: DKorley

FINAL CHAPTER

Alex and Izzy were playing poker( without Evy knowing.) Johnathan and Sarah had gone to Egypt to visit her father, Miranda and Allan had gone out for a walk. Ardeth then came in with with an apron and a tray with food on it.

"Ha! I win-" Izzy stopped and looked at Ardeth who glared at him.

"Talk and I'll break your neck." he said walking up the stairs with Alex and Izzy looking up at him and when he was gone...

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" They burst out laughing, Izzy fell on the ground now there was silence and then Alex laughed.

Ardeth reached Evy's door holding the tray and knocking the door.

"Come in." he heard her say, he entered and Evy smiled now beggining to laugh.

"It's not funny." he grumbled, he handed her her plate.

"Thank you so much." she smiled making him smile." Now get me some ice-cream!" she said and he frown.

"You know you should have said it when you sent me for the food!" he said.

"Now go get me ice-cream..think of the baby." she said pretending to speak innocently. He stood up walking out the door and looked at her smiling a bit, he walked in the hallway. He was excited to see his child for the first time, he was hoping for a boy but a girl would be nice.

'As long as its healthy.' he thought entering the kitchen after seeing Izzy being laughed at by Alex. He took some ice-cream and went back upstairs to Evy.

"Is it big enough?"

"Trust me, it is." he handed her the ice-cream, surprisedly she had already finished the food he gave her. He watched her feed on the ice-cream and she looked up.

"What?"

"Why don't we go outside for awhile."

"Why?" she asked.

"I have a surprise for you."

"Is it food?" she joked and both of them laughed.

"No." he waited for her to finish her ice-cream, she got dressed going down the stairs with him. They walked around the house hearing Alex's and Izzy's fighting over the poker game. And they stopped by the fountain.

"So what did you wanted to talk-" she stopped when Ardeth kissed her cupping her cheeks, they pulled back looking into eachother's eyes.

"Marry me, tonight." he simply said and she gasped.

"W-what?" she asked quietly and he took out a small box.

"Let me do this the proper way." he knelt down looking up at her smiling, she covered her mouth, tears flowing out of her eyes."Evy I'm not doing this for the baby but for you, I love you so much and I want you to be mine forever so please.." he opened the velvet box revealing a ring." Marry me, tonight." he finished. She sniffed wiping her tears.

"Yes." she said. He slowly smiled and then grinned now hugging her close.

It seems Ardeth had alread planned the wedding but it wasn't that big, unfortunately Johnathan and Sarah were in Egypt but the ceromony was still good. They had sent a letter to them to let them know about it and they had replied. It was a wonderful ceremony for them, even though Evy only wore her white evening dress but she was beautiful, they hired a minister in the church she and Alex go to before Ardeth came. Two months passed and she was in the hospital now in labor and Ardeth was at her side as she laid on her side silently in pain. Alex had gone to school two weeks ago, Johnathan and Sarah were back from Egypt in the waiting. Dr. Wuornos came inside the room Evy and Ardeth were in.

"Doctor?" Evy called and the doctor came to her.

"Yes Evy?"

"Last time you gave me pain killers right?"

"Yes, don't worry we still have them." Evy smiled sweat on down on face and she felt another contraction and held Ardeth's hands tightly.

"Nurse!" he called the brunette who was by the small table.

"Yes doctor?"

"Bring the pain killers." he ordered and the nurse froze, Dr. Wuornos turned." Well! What are you waiting for we have a woman in labor here!" he almost yelled.

"Yeah I notice that...it's just-"

"Just what!"

"We don't have any, they're finished." she said shutting her eyes for more yelling. She opened her eyes seeing him put his hand on his forhead sighing. She saw him walk next to Ardeth looking at Evy.

"Evy.."

"I know, I heard."

"You realize this is going to hurt a lot, more than when your first birth." she nodded hesitantly and smiled a little, the doctor smiled meaning 'Good luck' and he went out. Evy was now looking at Ardeth still holding his hand.

"Promise me you'll stay." he kissed her pale hand smiling.

"Of course I will...you will be alright." he assured her.

"I hope." she answered.

They had told the nurse about Ardeth staying trough the birth, it took a lot of arguing to get it. Hours passed and the contractions started to come sooner and more painful. Sometimes Evy would shut her eyelids tightly beginning to cry a little. (Just to let you all know, this is my first time writing a birth scene. So you might not like I think) Ardeth would always comfort her, kissing her. Seven hours passed and Evy was ready to give birth, all the nurses surrounded her and it was so quiet. Ardeth still held her hand, he was very nervous and scared.(First of all, I did research and they did have some medicine used for pain killers..if you're wondering.)

"When I coun't to three, you start pushing for ten seconds..alright?" the nurses instructed Evy who indolently nodded. She was drenched with sweat and took breaths breaths.

"One..." she adjusted herself a little.

"Two..." she took a deep breath, gathering the little strength she has and held on to Ardeth's hand.

"Three!" she pushed with all her strength, Ardeth was too nervous to feel his bones crushing.

"One, two, three, four, five..." Evy almost screamed, she held it back. She didn't wanted to like her first birth with Alex." ...Six, seven, nine, ten." She fell back on the pillow, she was so exausted.

"One more and then you're all done." the nurse said. "Again."

Evy pushed hard with the little strength she had, Ardeth felt a vicelike grip on his hand but didn't care. He was afriad, nervous, excited. He heard her cry out and fell back to the pillow, silence hit them for a few minutes. He was beginning to get worried until a baby's cry broke the silence. He heard Evy start to laugh a little when she heard it, still closing her eyes. She felt a light weight on her chest and she opened her eyes seeing a pink bundle and her baby's face.

"A girl."

She then carried her newborn daughter into her arms, crying tears of joy, she gazed at the beautiful daughter she had in her arms. And then she kissed her forhead, Ardeth took his daugther's finger and kissed her little hand which grasped his finger.

"Oh, she's really strong." he laughed a little.

"I want to name her Helen...after my sister."

"You never told me you had a sister."

"She died, a long time ago."

"I'm sorry."

"No, right now I have her."

"I want to name her Ava, for her middle name." Ardeth said.

"Ava?"

"A latin name, don't tell me an Egyptologist doesn't know this!"

"Sorry, I think it's a lovely name." she laughed and they both kissed, Ardeth then went in the waiting room to call Johnathan and Sara who were sleeping.

vvvvvvv

FOUR YEARS LATER

Thirteen year old Alex slept peacefully in his sleep, he was now out of boarding school and going to a public high school. He snored loudly and then his door crept open. A little brunette girl stepped in his room, she smiled when she saw his trumpet on his drawer. She took it and put it next to his ear..then she blew.

"AAAAAAH!" He yelled falling off his bed, the blankets covered him and he groaned. He heard a familiar laugh.

"YOU LITTLE.."He quickly removed the blankets off him and chased his sister Helen.

Four months pregnant Evy was with Ardeth in the kitchen, she already heard Alex's yell. She sighed looking up the long stairs, Jonathan, Izzy, and Allan were playing poker. Miranda and Sara were sitting on the couch playing with Sara's two-year-old son Conner. Alex and Helen were down the stairs running, Helen knocked of the chess board.

"EH! I was winning!" Johnathan whined.

Evy sighed shaking her head.

"Ardeth do something with those kids." she said, he sighed going into the living room.

"Knock it off!" he shouted.

"She started it!" Alex shouted still chasing Helen, Ardeth went back inside the kitchen seeing Evy laugh.

"Helen never stops torturing him does she?" Ardeth nodded kissing her.

In the evening the family and friends, they all laughed at Izzy's stories during his childhood years and in a couple of years back.

"Me and Rick were playing poker, and I was the one who always won and he wanted a rematch! So we played for for hours and heck he owed me alot of money. He finally won and I gave him his money and he went off, I didn't even realize he was going off with my money. So I walked and walked until an hour later...I realized how stupid I was cuz he ran off with my money! I chased him down." they all laughed hard.

They were all silent for awhile." I miss him." Alex said, Evy patted his head and Ardeth raised his glass.

" For being a great husband..."he looked at Evy who smiled." a great father.." Alex smiled." And most of all he was a honest friend, and he will always be remembered...To Rick." he said.

"To Dad." Alex raised his cup.

"To Rick." Evy did the same.

"To Ricky!" Helen almost shouted making everyone laugh a little.

"To my boy Rick." Izzy did the same.

And everyone did the same, putting their cups and glasses together and finally continuing their dinner conversations.

vvvv
