Written for the 100 Quotes of Life Challenge (4. "Look—look! It's—it's a boy—look!").
It's a Boy!
"Look—look! It's—it's a boy—look!"
James is acting as though he had no idea they were having a boy, or perhaps he just wasn't prepared to believe it until he saw it with his own eyes.
Lily laughs shakily, exhausted from labor yet delighted by the sight of the swaddled infant in her arms. "He's beautiful," she whispers.
James wrinkles his nose. "I don't think I'd go that far, Lils."
Lily swats his arm playfully. "Afraid he'll grow up to be better-looking than you?"
"No." He crosses his arms and huffs.
Lily grins. "Oh, you so are, James."
