Author's Note: Whoa. Thanks so much for all the feedback guys-I really appreciate it. And if you were waiting anxiously for an update (like I do with stories I like) I'm really sorry, but I'm juggling two fics and life, which suddenly just got a lot busier. Will try my best to update though. Oh and time jumps in this part from the last part! Enjoy it!

Chapter Three:

The hard part was all over. She had done it-Hannah had given birth to her and Bright's beautiful baby.

"You did it Hans," said Bright, placing kisses all over her sweat stricken face.

"Where's our baby," she asked, peering over her husband, as if that would reveal her newborn.

"Mr. and Mrs. Abbot, I present to you the newest addition to your family. She's absolutely beautiful," said a nurse, carrying in the newborn baby.

"A little girl Bright," said Hannah, taking her daughter from the nurse. "Oh god Bright, she's so beautiful. She looks just like you."

Taking a look at the baby nestled in his wife's arms, he said, "No she doesn't. She's every bit you, minus the hair of course," taking in his daughter's blonde locks.

"Yeah. We have to name her. Any ideas?"

"A few, but whatever you decide, I'm sure it will be perfect," replied Bright.

Hannah woke up then, at that moment and taking in her surroundings, she realized it was only a dream, especially once her hands made way to her seven month belly that still protruded from her stomach. It felt so real though-almost as if she really had a baby girl, but what if she was having a baby girl?

With that resolve in mind, she set to wake up her sleeping husband. "Bright, wake up, I need to speak to you," she spoke, even rubbing his shoulders for good effect.

"Hannah? It's like three in the morning, what's the matter? Is it the baby," he questioned, now truly getting worried, as Hannah valued her sleep and hardly woke him during the night.

"Yes, but everything's okay," she amended once she saw his worried face. "Bright, how about we call off this bet about the baby's gender? I have a really great feeling that our baby is going to be a girl and as much as it pains me to admit you were right, I really could use your help taking care of her. And I have an appointment with the doctor tomorrow so we can even find out the baby's gender for sure."

"Umm, sure sweetheart. We'll do that. Now, if nothing is wrong, I'd like to go back to sleep," Bright replied, pulling his wife closer to him, or as much as he could, as her stomach tended to get in the way.

Doctor's Office

Last night's dream had Hannah wanting more and more to find out the gender of her and Bright's baby, so once she was able to convince Bright to agree to the same, she had dragged him out of the house, insisting that he come to the doctor's with her, not that he wouldn't, as he had been to every single meeting with their doctor.

'Waking him up in his sleep gets to him every time,' Hannah thought, as she knew Bright valued his sleep and would agree to anything as long as he could fall back asleep.

They didn't have to wait much longer in the waiting room, as their name was soon called and they were ushered to another room, where the nurse asked Hannah to put on one of the cotton gowns provided by the hospital. Even in that stupid gown, Hannah still looked like the most beautiful thing to Bright, and she was.

"Hello Mr. and Mrs. Abbot, how are you two doing today," greeted their doctor, Doctor Sandra Michaels.

"Just fine thanks, you," Hannah responded, for both her and Bright, as he was currently nose deep in a sport magazine.

"I'm great thanks. And how is our lovely baby doing today?"

"She's great actually. Keeps on kicking me, but she's fine."

"She? I thought you had decided the baby was a boy and your husband was betting on the girl," asked the doctor, all too confused.

"Well, I kind of changed my mind. Can you still tell us what gender our baby is? Although, I have a really strong feeling the baby is a girl."

"Yep, sure. Just as soon as I conduct all the test and make sure the baby is healthy."

Peering in Hannah's chart, the doctor asked, "So, have you been eating-you know trying to put on some pounds?"

"I tried. Everything from doughnuts to fast food and even veggies with no exercise, but I don't feel any heavier, just huger," replied Hannah, stepping onto the weighing machine.

"You're getting there, but I would like it if you could put on some more weight-just a healthy amount to support the baby, nothing more and if you're worried about your figure, your weight will come off, as your metabolism seems to be very high. Still, I'll prescribe you some more medicine, but other than that, everything should be fine."

Dr. Michaels continued on with the examination and at the end gave Hannah and the baby a clean bill of health. And as promised before, told Hannah to lie down on the table, so that she could perform the ultrasound. The cold gel made Hannah shiver, but as soon as Bright took her side and the image of their baby appeared on the screen, Hannah was comforted and content.

"So, do you guys want to know," questioned the doctor.

Taking her husbands hands, Hannah replied, "Yes, we'd love to know."

Positioning the tracker at various spots on Hannah's stomach, the doctor was able to find the right spot after some time and with that announced, "Congratulations, you're having a baby girl. Supremely healthy too," taking in her heartbeat.

Hannah and Bright were all smiles and happiness, kissing each other, while the doctor made her way out, reminding Hannah to pick up her prescription later.

Maxson's Baby Store

The visit to the doctor's was almost a week ago and once the doctor confirmed that the baby was indeed a girl, Bright insisted that he and Hannah go baby shopping, for she would be tired to do it any later in her pregnancy.

So here they were, at Maxson's Baby Store, Colorado's finest baby store, shopping away for their little girl.

"We still have time before we have to buy all this stuff Bright," said Hannah, as she watched her husband put in another cute pink baby's outfit into their already half filled shopping cart.

"Yeah, but I want to make sure my girl has everything she needs and if she doesn't, I'll make sure to get her whatever she needs. Now come on, let's go look at the cribs," he replied, pulling his wife with him.

Money wasn't a problem, as Bright got paid a hefty sum and had the endorsements of many sporting companies, but it was just the principal of the matter. Hannah just didn't want her baby getting spoiled, but she understood why Bright was doing this, so she just let it go.

Wandering down the crib section, Hannah was musing on just how lucky she was to have a husband that cared enough about her and his growing daughter. Bright brought her out of her thoughts by showing her the selection of cribs offered by the store, asking her which one she liked the most.

"Ew, Bright look at that one," she said pointing to this hideous crib made out of a metal base and wood bars. "Who would buy that?"

"Not us, our princess will have only best-no hideous cribs. How about this one," he asked pointing to an adorable crib with a wood finish, pink bedding and a removable side, so that the baby could be easily accessed.

"It's beautiful Bright," she replied, taking his hands and kissing him.

"And look, we can get this mobile to go with it," he continued, showing his wife a baby mobile with stuffed lambs on it, obviously excited at having a baby to spoil.

"It's perfect. I love you Bright."

"I love you too," he told her.

They went home a couple of thousand dollars poorer, but they also had everything they could possibly need for their baby girl-everything from clothes, cribs, strollers, carriers, wallpapers, bedding, blankets, dressers, and every other thing imaginable.

Their night was pleasantly quiet, just lying on the bed together, Bright's right hand rubbing lulling circles on his wife's stomach, trying to ease their ever-moving daughter. Even as she kicked for the thousandth time, Bright was still amazed at the fact his little girl could do that, his mind going back to the first kick he felt.

Being famous came with a price, of course, and that meant that Bright and Hannah had to endure many public events, most in the name of charity, but really all for publicity. Bright didn't care, though, about sacrificing one night out of his schedule because all that night meant to him was spending another evening with his beautiful wife, who was always dressed to perfection and not just in his eyes, as he often caught other men stealing glances.

On the ride back from the Harper's Society Ball, donating its proceeds to Leukemia patients and research, Bright held a sated Hannah in his arms, as the limo drove them home. Hannah was tired, but tried not to dwell so much on her drooping eyes, but that was made even harder, as Bright started rubbing circles on her protruded belly.

"Bright, you're going to have to stop that or else I'm going to fall asleep," Hannah told him, a yawn sneaking in at the end of her sentence.

"Don't worry about it Hans, you need to rest anyways. I'll carry you into the house too, if that's what you're worried about. I'm a very strong football player love," he joked back, as he knew Hannah was beginning to revert to her high school days, self conscious about her appearance. All Bright could do was tell her how amazing she looked, especially now that she was swollen with their child, a child they created to show to the world just how much they loved each other.

"You sure about that because I am a huge whale right now."

"No you're not-you're extremely beautiful and glowing. Besides, the doctor said you have to gain more weight now, so you aren't even as big as you should be. And speaking of my baby, I feel like she needs a few kisses, then maybe her mommy can relax and take a little nap or two." With that, Bright took his hands off her stomach and began to pepper small kisses on his wife's stomach, pulling back only when Hannah hissed out in pain. "Hans, what's wrong? Is it the baby," asked Bright, all too worried, but when he saw her face, tears leaking out and yet all smiles, he began to get confused.

Seeing his confused expression, she explained, "Bright, he kicked. The baby started kicking. Here, give me your hand and maybe he'll do it again," taking his hand in hers and placing it on her stomach. Sure enough, the baby did kick again and Bright was more in awe, as this was living proof of what he and Hannah had created.

"She doesn't seem to want to leave her mommy alone today does she," asked Bright still rubbing circles on Hannah's stomach.

"Today? What are you taking about today? She does this every night so her mommy doesn't get any sleep, but then when it's morning, she's as quiet as can be. Seems to me that she got her troublemaking side from her father," Hannah relayed, snuggling closer to Bright's side.

"From me? Yeah right."

"You keep on thinking that love," replied Hannah and some time later asked, "What do you think she'll look like?"

"Beautiful. I keep dreaming about this chubby little girl with curly blonde hair, but that's the only thing she gets from me-everything else is purely you."

"Ugh, I hope she doesn't get my hair, it's so curly and unruly."

"No it's not, you're beautiful and I love you," Bright responded, pulling his wife even closer, turning her in his arms, and kissing his way up her neck and to her lips. "Since you aren't getting any sleep, how about I make love to you huh," he asked, now more than happy that his little angel kept her mommy up with her constant kicking.

"Bright, look at me. I'm as big as a whale. How can you find me attractive?"

"You aren't a whale, you just have a baby inside of you and you are the sexiest thing I've ever seen," he told her, now pushing her up to straddle his legs.

Taking in her flannel pajamas, white tank top and her large stomach, Hannah was doubtful, but as soon as Bright pulled her in for a kiss, all her doubtful thoughts were forgotten and she proceeded to make love to her husband, content with everything in her life.

Author's Note: Sorry again about the lack of update and for the shortness that is this chapter. The birth will be next, though! Hope you guys enjoyed this!

Thank You's:

Meepeve: Thanks for the review! Glad to see you liked it and sorry for the lack of updates! Hope you enjoyed this part!

tina: Thanks so much for the review and liking it. Hope you enjoyed this addition!

Samrtstar247: Hey thanks for the review! And yeah, Bright would make a sweet dad. It's not weird that you would want the brother to be the oldest because sometimes I wish I had an older brother or sister even to protect me, but I don't and neither will Hannah and Bright's baby because everyone wanted a girl-sorry! Hope you enjoyed it anyways.

totaltvjunkie: Thanks for you kind words! I'm glad that you like the story and yes, Bright would a sweet father. You should hear all the things I've planned for him and his little girl-let's just say he'll be so wrapped around her little fingers he won't even know what hit him lol. Hope you enjoyed it!

sarah: Thanks for the review hun! I'm glad you like it and hope you enjoyed this part too!

kursk: Thanks for the review! Unfortunately, I don't think Amy and Ephram will be all too featured in this because when I started writing it I was planning on just the Brannah so sorry. I love the couple, but I feel like they have so much baggage that I just don't want to solve, whereas Bright and Hannah aren't even a couple yet (one kiss yes, but I have a feeling drama comes our way once she returns, as I think her dad will die and she'll shut Bright out-just my thoughts I guess) and can be easily molded into whatever I want them to be. Hope you still enjoyed it and will continue reading it.

Kisn4L: Thanks for the review! Sorry that the baby is a girl, but the reviewers wanted a girl, sorry! Hope you still enjoyed it and will continue to read it.
