2 ½ years later

"Again mother?" a small boy with jet black curly hair and delicious brown eyes looked up at Summer annoyed.

Summer sighed in the hospital bed that she knew so well by now. Exhaling she held out a hand to her six, almost seven year old son and squeezed. "It's okay CJ, your going to be a big brother."

CJ frowned. "I'm already a big brother. I don't want another baby in the family. Four is enough, why add another one?"

Summer didn't think that this was the time to explain that nine months ago, she and CJ's father had been having quite the wild night and skipped using a condom, something they should have learned from long ago, and now was lying here in this bed about to give birth to her fifth child. "Cooper James Cohen, I trust you to be good to this baby. I will not put up with the behaviour you had when Alexis was born one more time."

CJ mocked his mother and stuck his tongue out, leaving her room to find his eight year older brother Jake.

Sighing Summer stretched out in her familiar bed at the Beverly Hills hospital. God CJ was such a little brat. People said that he got it from her but Summer insisted that she couldn't see it. She closed her eyes before another brief knock was at the door, and her amazing husband walked in the room with a bouquet of roses. Summer couldn't help but smile. Seth could be so damn cute when he wanted too… and when he didn't want to.

"Hey there beautiful." Seth placed the roses in a vase on her bedside table and planted a light kiss on her forehead.

Summer gave her famous eye roll. "Please Cohen. I'm fat; my hair is a mess, make up running. Seriously, I'm hideous."

"In my opinion you've never looked more beautiful." Seth smiled sweetly before he received a light blow in the stomach from Summer.

"Cut the sappiness Cohen. I look like shit. Period."

Seth shrugged. "Fine, you look like shit."

Scowling, Summer crossed her arms. "Where are my children Cohen? I've already heard from Mr. Big Mouth, where is everyone else?"

"Well," he said, taking a bite of the chocolate donut he had bought from the cafeteria on the floor below. "Lexi and Tyler went to the little playroom thing, I don't know, some nurse is watching them. CJ went off to find Jake who was exploring or something."

Mouth open Summer give her husband another hit, harder this time. "You left our babies alone?"

Seth looked up from his donut confused. "What? They're like seven and eight. And since when did you become Mrs. Overprotective Mom?" he scoffed, getting back to the chocolaty deliciousness in front of him.

Summer looked at Seth for a moment before her lower lip began to tremble and she began to cry into Seth. He held her for a moment, rubbing her back. "Hey, no hey Sum, you know I didn't mean it like that. I'm sorry baby, really."

Summer continued crying but shook herself out of his embrace. "What if it happens again Cohen? It just can't happen again, I don't think I'll be able to bare it."

Seth just nodded. He was wondering when this would come up again. Over two years ago, when Alexis Brittney was born, there were some complications. She was born with her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck, cutting her blood supply short. She was pale and anemic when she was born and had to go under special surgery to plant more red blood cells in her bloodstream. The experiment was risky for anyone, especially a two day old newborn. Only 1 in 100 babies survived it, the rest didn't. Alexis miraculously survived. Yet she was still extremely weak and frail. It was a full three months before she could go home, and every month she needed to come back for checkups. It was frightening to have your baby in the hospital for so long, and not being able to see her. Summer would cry herself to sleep every night, praying that her child would grow stronger. Summer had willed herself never to have to go through that again. Seth remembered it well. It was no wonder she was worried now.

"Shh… Sum listen, last checkup they saw that the baby was fine okay? Don't worry, I promise it'll be alright."

Summer breathed deeply and immediately wiped her tears as she saw all four kids burst into the room, accompanied by Ryan. She would never let them see her cry. As far as they knew, their mother had never cried one day in her life. "Hey babies." She smiled, looking at her four gorgeous children… and Ryan. First her eyes stopped on Jake. He was a tall, good looking eight year old. He had heard from other mother's that every girl had a crush on Jake Cohen. And it was no wonder. He had wavy brown hair and dark brown eyes. Freckles were plastered in occasional bunches along his cheeks, and had been fading slowly as he got older.

Next she looked at her quiet son with his big mouth. His curly hair was quite longer than usual; it would need a cut soon. He was an average height, very thin, and wore his favorite Spiderman t-shirt, action figure clutched in his hand.

Then there was Tyler. He was also gorgeous. He was only five years old, but something about him was unique. He had a similar look to Jake, yet something was a tad different, almost inhuman. His look was so extremely gorgeous that parents would stop Summer just to look at Ty.

Finally there was Alexis. With her growing dark hair, straight and shiny, Lexi looked exactly like Summer. She a tiny 2 ½ year old with the biggest eyes Summer had ever laid eyes on. She was truly their miracle baby and ever since she had come out of that hospital, Summer immediately had become overprotective of her daughter.

"How are you Sum?" Ryan asked smiling, placing a hand on Summer's shoulder.

Summer tilted her head back and forth as in a symbol of, "ok." Ryan had known the stress that the birth of Lexi had caused, so he prayed that this time everything would be alright.

Marissa burst in through the room, a screaming Zach holding her hand. "Sorry we're late Sum, Zach has been screaming ever since we passed by the vending machine and I said no." Marissa looked worn out. Here usually perfect hair was a mess, eyes looked red and tired. Summer knew that Zach had been a handful for her and Ryan. They'd made the mistake of spoiling him young and now, at age 5 he was winy, aggressive and controlling. Marissa often couldn't help but give into him.

Summer waved it away. "It's no problem Coop, I'm not even dilated 4 yet. I've had like 2 contractions since I got here a few hours ago."

"Wow, you're lucky, my labour was a bitch."

Often Seth, Summer, Ryan and Marissa spoke in front of their kids as they did with each other. By now Tyler, Zach, Jake and Cooper knew just about every swear in the dictionary, and it was only CJ who occasionally used them.

"I know, I am pretty lu-u-u-cky. Ow, I spoke too soon." Summer tightened her legs and stretched them out as Ryan and Marissa lead the 5 children out of her room. Summer moaned as Seth held her hand, ignoring the fact that she was probably crushing every single bone in his body.

Dr. Keddy came in to see a groaning Summer and did a quick check. "Six centimeters. Just a few more Mrs. Cohen."

It had been long and hard; painful and tough. Let's just save the time of using complex adjectives and simply say that the birth was a fucking bitch. But there was a plus side. Summer and Seth now had a brand new happy, healthy baby boy, no complications whatsoever. And now Summer couldn't be happier. Her worried were gone. She had a new baby. And he was so cute. Of course she said that about all her babies, but still.

Right now it was just her, Seth and the kids, no one speaking, simply watching the new baby boy sleep soundly. Finally, CJ spoke up, clearly annoyed that the room was so quiet. "Um, so does he like have a name?"

Summer looked at Seth who shrugged. "We were hoping that you guys could help us pick the name." Seth said, ruffling CJ's hair.

At this Jake, Cooper, Tyler and Lexi all perked up eagerly discussing names. "Okay Jake, you're the oldest so start us off. But there is only one rule… we all need to agree."

Jake nodded and put a finger to his chin, thinking very carefully about his decision. "Alright I've got it," he announced, hands proudly on his hips. "How about JJ? You know like Jake Junior?"

Summer wrinkled her nose, Seth fought back laughter, Tyler looked confused, and Lexi bit her nail. "That sucks!" CJ announced. "That's worse than naming the kid after me and being CJJ. Dude, we already have one 'J' in the house, plus, we call you Jay all the time. That name sucks man."

Everyone laughed and Jake looked discouraged. "Okay then Mr. Know-It-All, what's your name?" Seth asked Cooper.

"Well… it should be a good strong name. I don't want no pussy—I mean wimp, sorry mom," he said, eyeing his mom's blazing eyes, "… for a brother. Yeah so, I was thinking maybe Austin, you know it's pretty manly." Cooper eyes his family hopefully but only received negative glares. "Aw forget it, what do you all know anyways." He stated more than asked, putting his famous pout on his gorgeous face.

Next was Lexi, as Tyler was still thinking. She was only 2 ½ years old yet quite sharp for her age. "I like Julian." She said shyly, twirling her light pink dress. Cooper gave a laughing cough as Summer glared at him.

"What? Everyone knows that Julian is her boyfriend." CJ mocked, poking Lexi in the stomach. "Aint that right Alexis?"

"CJ shut-up." Lexi whined, giving CJ a glare so much like Summer's that CJ actually obeyed.

Finally it was Tyler's turn; the shy, beautiful, gentle boy, the one who was always respectful and sweet, caring and kind. He scratched behind his head and put his chin in his hand. "Hmm… I think I like Christopher. You know like Christopher Robin?" he said in his cute little voice, eyeing his family quickly before dropping his head down.

Summer slowly nodded her head. "Christopher, Christopher, Chris." She said the name several times before looking down at the unnamed baby. "Hey there Chris." The baby opened his eyes for the first time which Summer saw as a sign. She grinned widely and brought Tyler up on the bed, lying beside her. "Good choice baby."

It seemed like so long ago that Jake was born; and Cooper; and Tyler; and even Alexis. Summer would have never known that after Jake they'd even have another child again. And now they had five. This would do. Five was plenty. The long day's events finally hit Summer as her eyes began to droop and Seth ushered the kids out of the room.

Tomorrow would be day one of the new life of seven.

Okay it was just a hospital scene. More drama from Ryan and Marissa's family will come up, and we will see the hardships that they have had to endure while Seth and Summer have been thriving.

PLEASE review because feedback encourages and helps me.
