Brooke followed Haley and Nathan and Jenny off the elevator while carrying Emma. They walked down the hall of the maternity ward and met Larry Sawyer in the waiting rooom. He saw them and stood up.

"Hey," he said as they got closer.

"Where's mom, grandpa?" Jenny asked. "Did she have the baby yet?"

"No, not yet. At least I don't think she did." Larry replied.

"How is Peyton?" Brooke wondered. "Any news?"

"Not in awhile. Jake is in with her and he hasn't been out in awhile, so I think it's going to be soon. He said he would come tell us when they take her down to delivery. Let's she, the doctor said she was at like four centimeters when he brought her in, and the last time Jake was out here, she had progressed to seven in like 30 minutes time."

"Wow, she is moving fast." Haley said.

"Do you need anything, Mr. Sawyer?" Nathan asked.

"No thanks, I'm good. Although, I could use some company."

"We'll keep you company granddad." Jenny said as she followed Larry to the chairs. Everyone else followed and sat down. After about fifteen minutes, Jake returned to the waiting room. Brooke and Larry and Jenny stood up, while Nathan and Haley leaned forward to listen.

"Okay," Jake said with a smile, "they're prepping her for delivery and she'll start pushing and we will have a baby very, very soon."

"Wow, already?" Brooke said amazed.

"Yeah, things are going really fast and really smooth, just like they did with Emma."

A nurse stopped at the end of the hall and called out to Jake, "Mr. Jielgelski, we're ready for you."

Jake looked back at his friends, smiled wider and said, "This is it guys…I'm going to be a dad again."

Everyone smiled and as Jake started to walk away, Nathan said, "Good luck."

After being in labor for hours, and pushing for fifteen minutes, Peyton was tired and very much near the end of labor.

"You're doing marvelously, Peyton." Doctor Byrnes said. "The baby's head is crowning and all I need from you now is one more big push to deliver this baby."

Jake kissed Peyton's head and said, "You're almost done, baby. Just one more push. You can do it."

Squeezing Jake's hand and dripping with sweat, Peyton lifted her head from her pillow and pushed hard once again.

"That's it Peyton…" Doctor Byrnes said as a nurse stepped up next to him with a towel, " keep going…you're almost there…yes!"

Peyton felt the baby leave her body and she rested back on her pillow and smiled at the sound of the baby's crying. Docotr Byrnes held the screaming baby up and said, "Congratulations mom and dad, you have a beautiful baby girl!"

Peyton smiled and Jake kissed her head with tears in her eyes and the nurse carried the baby over to clean her up.

"I'm so proud of you, baby." Jake said, sniffling.

Peyton touched his face before kissing him.

"I love you." She said.

"I love you too."

"Hey dad," a nurse called out to Jake, "would you like to cut the cord?"

Jake nodded his head and walked over to his baby. The brown eyed, soft haired baby girl was still screaming as he cut the umbilical cord. After he finished, Jake stepped back and let the nurses finish cleaning his daughter. Once they had her wrapped tightly in a pink blanket, the nurses handed the newborn to Jake and he carried her over to Peyton and laid her in her arms. When he did, the baby finally stopped crying as she opened her eyes to Peyton.

"Wow, Jake, look at how beautiful she is." Peyton said sniffling.

"She's gorgeous." Jake agreed. "Look, she has Emma's eyes."

Peyton smiled and ran a finger over her daughter's soft head.

"She has the softest hair." She observed. " It's a little darker than Emma's as when she was born."

"Yeah," Jake agreed, " there's more of it too."

They watched their baby slowly fall asleep and Jake said, "She's asleep already."

"Yeah, well she's had a long day."

Jake laughed and said, " I think I'll go tell the girls they have a baby sister.

"Okay." Peyton said. " Bring them all back to the room after you tell them."

"I will. I love you."

"I love you too."

Jake left Peyton's room with a grin across his face. He had another little girl. Now he had the three most beautiful daughter's in the world. As he turned the corner, Jake saw his other two daughters waiting with his friends on the carpeted waiting area.

Jenny spotted him, smiled and ran to him. brooke followed her with Emma in her arms.

"Did mom have the baby?" Jenny asked excitedly as Nathan and Haley walked over curiously.

"Yep." Jake said, nodding.

Everyone anxiously waited for him to continue, but Brooke grew tired of waiting and she asked, "Well, what is it? A boy or a girl?"

"A brother or a sister?" Jenny wondered.

Jake smiled even wider as he answered, "It's a girl. She's seven pounds, eight ounces, 21 inches long and one of the most beautiful babies ever born."

"Yes!" Jenny squealed and Brooke, and Haley and Nathan smiled at each other.

Jenny reached for Emma from Brooke and when she had her in her arm, she bounced her up and down and said, "Guess what, Emma? We have a new baby sister!"

Emma smiled and at Jenny and repeated, "Baby sister?"

"Yeah."

While Jenny celebrated with Emma, Jake's friends hugged him and congratulated him and asked him about the baby.

"So who does she look most like?" Brooke asked, smiling.

"I think she looks a lot like both of us, a lot like Emma too. She has big beautiful blu eyes like Emma's and the cutest little nose and tiniest mouth, but a pretty loud cry."

His friends chuckled. And Jenny handed Emma to Jake and asked, "Can we see her and mom?"

"Yeah, she should be back in her room now. She'll want to see all of you. Come on."

Jake carried Emma down the hall with Jenny walking by his side. Brooke, Nathan and Haley followed.

Peyton still held the new baby in her arms when Jake opened the door. She looked up and smiled at him and her friends.

"Hey guys," she said, "c'mon in."

jake walked with Emma to one side of the bed and Jenny ran over to the other. Brooke, Nathan and Haley came closer to her and the baby. Jenny hugged Peyton then looked at her sleeping baby sister.

"Awe, she's so cute, Mom." She said.

"She's beautiful, Peyton." Brooke said as she carefully hugged her friend. "Congratulations."

"She's adorable." Haley said, moving closer to get a better look. "Look at how hard she is sleeping with that little tongue sticking out."

Peyton chuckled, "I know, I love it."

"Baby." Emma pointed.

"That's right, Emma." Jake said as he set Emma on the bed in in between Peyton's legs in front of her and the baby, "this is you baby sister. Can you give the baby a kiss?"

Everyone watched with smiles as Emma leaned forward and kissed her sisters head.

"Awe…"Haley chanted.

"Good job, Emma." Peyton said. "You're so sweet."

"Shh! Baby seepin." Emma said, holding up a finger to her mouth.

Everyone laughed and Nathan asked, "So do you guys have a name picked out yet?"

"Yes we do." Peyton said. "Everybody meet Riley Anna Jielgelski."

"Awe, I like that name, Mom." Jenny said. "Can I hold her, Mom?"

"Of course." Peyton replied. "Hold out your arms."

Jenny held her arms out and Peyton moved the baby to her arms. Riley made a tiny cry, but still remained asleep.

"There you go." Peyton said. " Remember, support her head."

Jenny smiled as she stared at her sleeping sister and she said, "Wow…she's so little. I'm your big sister Jenny, Riley. We're going to have a lot of fun together."

Jake sat on the edge of the bed and Peyton leaned in to him. He kissed her head. After a minute, Jenny handed the baby back to her mom, and Emma crawled into Jake's lap.

"Okay guys," Brooke said as she pulled a camera from her purse, "it's picture time. Jenny, why don't you sit on the bed next to your mom."

Jenny smiled and sat down next to Peyton and Brooke waited for them to get close and said, "Okay, everybody squished in tight?"

She held the camera up to her eye and said, "Okay guys, everybody say Happy Birthday Riley on the count of three. One…two…three…"

Peyton, Jake and Jenny smiled and said, "Happy birthday Riley!"

Brooke snapped the camera with a bright flash and afterwards said, "Great job guys."

Brooke set the camera on Peyton's side table and Haley said, "So three daughter's Jake. you're going to have your hands full."

"Nah," Jake replied with a smile, "I can handle it. I'm going to love it."
