REGRETS
Chap 27! Where the time has passed? Sorry for the lack of updates…I promise I'll try to do something about it sooner or later.
Don't own anything and probably will never…
Hospital, Delivery Room, Two months and Three Weeks Later
"Push Shel!" He's funny sometimes! What does he think I'm doing since I'm here? God this is so bad! I think I'm going to die, it hurts so much. "You're doing good, again babe."
"Scott shut up!" I can't help myself, he's so annoying! I'd like to see him at my place!
"Sorry." Good. I push again but nothing goes out! I can't believe it! It's been almost two hours I'm here and the contractions are too close, I just know that's the time. I'm sweating hard and Scott keeps wiping my head with a tissue, leaving half of it on my skin. Is he stupid or what?
"Argh! Scott!"
"What baby? What do you want?" That was the question of the year! God, I only want to stop the pain…and I thought giving birth was the best thing a woman could ever experience. What a lie!
"Your…hand please!" I need something to grip onto or I'm going to faint, I swear! He sits on the chair just put next and took my left hand in his. I squeeze it tightly. I hope I won't break his fingers. I look over at him as I relax before it goes again. He's grimacing by pain…but I won't let him go out, after all, he has to feel my pain. I know…that's not nice. I cry out hoarsely as another painful sensation in the pit of my abdomen compressed itself against my womb, making me want to push, to do anything to try and get rid of the pain. Why can't the doctor do anything? Is she even here?
"Scott!" I scream his name as I feel him pulling his hand away. He's not going to leave me, is he?
"I'm here Shel, don't worry, I'm here." He says, trying to reassure me that he is still there but it seems I'm not being able to hear him. I know I become more and more distressed.
"Scott, please, it hurts badly. I can't take it anymore." I say weakly, feeling my whole body tense as I look up at him. Scott smiles sadly at me and began stroking my forehead. He then looks up at the doctor who had stopped arranging all of the tools and medications she would need to make this the easiest pregnancy possible and stares back at him.
"Can't you do something?" Scott say to the doctor in a strangled voice.
"Shelby, listen to me: we're going to give you an epidural, the birth will be more ease for you." Ah, finally something that seems good… Scott smiles a bit and I smirk at him despite myself.
"Okay, do what you want! I don't care as long as they finally come out! I'm so tired!"
"Don't worry Shel; everything's going to be okay." Scott reassures me as much as he can…I think he's even more worried that me if that's possible…
"Shelby, are you listening to me?" I slightly nod. Of course that I'm listening! "When you feel your next contraction, I want you to push. If I tell you to stop pushing will you do that for me?" I gasp as I feel the contraction leaving me.
"Are you sure that I'm ready for that?" I look straight at her for the first time. Her face is red and her eyes are full of confidence…it seems to be that she knows what she's doing…a real pro. "Are you sure the baby is ready to come out now?" It seems so unbelievably surreal to realise the time I have been waiting for have finally arrived. For nine months I had been waiting faithfully for this moment and now it is happening?
Scott bit his lip softly looking at me; still that stressed. The doctor nearly smiles sympathetically for him. His face is ashen and he clung to my hand tightly. He looks so worried, almost as if he is going to be sick. And then the contractions begin again…this is the time.
Hospital Room, Three Hours & A Half Later
"Don't they look pretty?" Scott asks me as we're both watching our two angels sleeping in my arms…they're both so cute…and tiny! I did it, finally, I did it…and I don't regret anything. It was the best moment of my life…
"Pretty? Scott, they're boys…and yes they look handsome, just like their father." That's right! Susan showed me pictures of baby Scott, they both look a lot like him; and I'm real glad they do!
"Oh, their mother doesn't look so bad herself…" He says seductively, with a small winkle.
"Scott, look at me…I'm all tired andhave rings under my eyes. And I'm still that big. Conclusion, I'm hideous."
"You still look beautiful into my eyes." Very charming, isn't he?
"Maybe you should go see an ophthalmologist soon then." I say sarcastically…I know, I'm used to do that a lot…I know he likes it, anyways.
"Come on; you know you look good." He's funny sometimes! What am I gonna do with him, he's a lost cause…but I'm glad he still finds me attractive…guess that's my secret power…
"Yeah, right, of course…I'm just perfect! I can't even dress in my pants and I lost so much hair. Look at this; I've never been this ugly." I complain, running a hand through my hair, that's so hideous! Scott smiles nicely at me and sits on the bed next to me and our babies who are both still sleeping despite the bouncing of the bed…they're sooo calm, I think I'm still dreaming…That's incredible…
"I don't care about your appearance. I love you; this is the only thing that matters."
"I love you too." And here I smile again, despite myself…god I'm so girly sometimes. I follow his gaze as he looks again at our beautiful babies in amazement, a single tear dropping from his eye…That's when I think of something! How are we evengoing to name them?
Please Review! I need to know if the scene of delivery was going or not…
Next update will probably be in a little while, again I'm not sure about it, it depends of my mood and the free time I have. (see my profile page for more info about my updates.)
