Riley is now 40 weeks pregnant.

Jesse, Noah, and Billie are at a friend's house till Riley gives birth.

Amanda and Olivia are letting Jackson stay with Riley at the hospital. So Jackson spent the night with Riley at her house. Everyone in the house was sleeping at this time.

A few hours later

Riley's sleep wasn't peaceful for long. Waking up around 1:00 AM when the contractions start. At first, thinking they are more Braxton Hicks until she feels her water break.

"Fuck." Riley said

"Babe are you okay?" Jackson asked who was laying on the floor next to the bed.

"No, my water just broke." Riley said

"Okay Breathe, baby. I will go get your moms."Jackson said

"Okay." Riley said as she started double-checking her hospital bag.

Jackson walked up the stairs into the living room and was surprised to see that Olivia was awake.

"Hey, what are you doing up so late?" Olivia asked when she noticed Jackson.

"Riley water just broke." Jackson said

"Okay, can you get her to the car while I wake up Amanda." Olivia said

"Okay." Jackson said as he walked back down the stairs and into Riley's room.

"Are you ready to go?" Jackson asked

"Yeah." Riley said

"Hey, it's all going to be okay." Jackson says kissing Riley.

"I know." Riley said as they started walking to the car.

Amanda and Olivia were already getting in the car.

Monday June 7 2021 2:00 AM North star general hospital

By the time they arrived at the hospital, Riley's contractions were 5 minutes apart.

They set Riley up in a room and the nurses hooked her up to an IV and a variety of monitors to measure things like her contractions and the fetal heartbeat. They gave Riley something for the pain.

A few minutes later Dr. Parker arrives to check how far Riley is, telling them she's at 6 centimeters.

"I'll be back soon." Dr. Parker said as she walked out of the room.

"How are you feeling, baby girl?" Amanda asked

"Fine, right now." Riley said as she closed her eyes.

2:50 AM

Dr. Parker checks how far Riley was again telling her she's at 9 centimeters. Things were progressing rather quickly; she had only been in active labor for about two hours. It's not surprising how far she had progressed because her contractions had grown to be one minutes apart.

3:15 AM

Dr. Parker came back to checked dilation, telling them that Riley was at 10 centimeters.

"Okay i want you to get ready to push okay Sweetie." Dr. Parker said

Riley nodded okay.

Things progressed quickly after that. Riley pushes for about 15 minutes when the doctor says she can see the baby's head. 4 pushes later, the doctor is telling her to look down. The room filled with tiny cries from the baby. The nurse took the baby to clean her. Riley put her head back on the pillow and closed her eyes for a second.

"Well done baby girl. I love you." Amanda said as she stroked Riley's hair back.

"Love you too mama." Riley said

The nurse started to do the initial assessment calling out her weight which is 6.5 lbs. 12 oz and her length is 18 inches.

A few minutes later Dr. Parker places the baby on Riley's chest and Riley starts crying.

"What is her name?" One of the nurses asked.

Riley looked at Jackson for a second.

"Vivica Jessica Rollins-Benson." Riley said

"A beautiful name from a beautiful baby." The nurse said with a smile and Riley smiled back. Then the nurse walked out of the room.

"What happened with Stephanie Aurora." Amanda asked

"I like the name Vivica." Riley said as Olivia and Amanda just smiled.

A few minutes later Vivica started crying.

"I think that she is hungry. I can one yall pass me a bottle please." Riley said

"Here you go." Olivia said as she headed Riley the bottle.

"Thank you." Riley said.

Riley put the bottle in Vivcia's mouth and she instantly started drinking it.

"Wow someone thirsty." Riley said as everyone giggled.

"Hey, babe?" Jack asked

"Yeah." Riley said as she looked up.

"So I bought a blanket for Vivica which I got engraved with her name on it." Jack said as he pulled out the blanket and gave it to Riley. It was a hot pink blanket.

"Thank babe, but you did not have to do this." Riley said as she wrapped the blanket around Vivica.

"I know." Jack said.

Once Vivica was fed a nurse brought in a bed for Vivica so Riley would not have to leave her.

Riley placed a sleeping Vivica down in the bed and covered her up with the blanket Jack got her and then kissed her forehand.

"You are going to be a great mom, sweetheart." Olivia said

"Thank mom." Riley said

"I think you should get some sleep." Amanda said

Riley nodded her head and got back into bed. Closing her eyes and falling into a deep sleep.

Monday 10:00 AM

Riley was in bed feeding Vivica when Olivia, Amanda, Jesse, Noah, and Billie walked into the room.

Jesse was the first one to run over to the bed where Riley was sitting.

"Awwwwwww, she is so cute." Jesse asked as she climbed into the bed taking the spot where Jackson was sitting.

"She looked like you, Ry-Ry." Jesse said as she played with Vivica's hands.

"Yeah." Riley said with a smile.

"You know that mommy and mama said that they are too young to be grandmothers right now."

"Well mama is right she is kind of young to be a grandmother right now but mom is wrong." Riley said with a smile.

"I know, that's what I said." Jesse said

Riley looked over at Noah who was standing right next to her.

"Do you want to hold her, Noah?" Riley asked.

He nods his head excitedly.

Riley helps to position his arms the right way before handing the baby to him.

"Make sure you keep an arm under his head." She says keeping an close eye on him.

The rest of the kids' visit went well. Olivia drops them at their friends for the rest of the day.

By the next day, Riley and Vivica were ready to be discharged. Because Riley's birth was natural and without any complications, it spread up the process some.
