After we arrived into the emergency department at Auradon General Hospital, we were greeted by Ben's doctor, Doctor Cameron. Me and Doctor Cameron shared a concerned look; but what confused me was the fact that Ben and Doctor Cameron also shared the same look. Had he told Ben about me and our baby?

However before I could fixate on this any further me and Ben were then taken into a private side room as Evie, Adam and Belle were all told to go to the family room. I know that Evie had rang Jay and Carlos on the way to the hospital so they would be arriving shortly.

Doctor Cameron then asked me whether I wanted Ben to leave; and we both looked at each other for a few seconds. I then quickly turned and looked at Doctor Cameron and told him that I wanted Ben to stay - as he was the father to my baby after all. I noticed that Ben then smiled meekly at this; which made me wonder about where I stood as Ben's current behaviour was confusing me.

It took a few hours as all the tests were done and to be honest they tired me out; they took my blood and urine, kept taking my blood pressure, pulse, breathing rate and oxygen saturations every hour. They also had booked me in for an ultrasound to check that the baby was ok; all the feeling of my first scan came to me and the fact that Ben hadn't been there.

It especially got awkward with Doctor Cameron kept mentioning how everything has been throughout my pregnancy; but what alarmed me was that Ben wasn't as shocked as he should be. It was at this point when Ben told me that Doctor Cameron had told me that I was seeing him today - just not why. He then advised that he was waiting for me in his side office; so we could talk.

I really didn't know how to feel about this; I wanted to tell Ben on my terms and Doctor Cameron was trying to take that away from me. However after I had thought about it for a few minutes I decided that I couldn't be too mad at either of them - Ben wanted to find me and Doctor Cameron was trying to tell me that it was safe for me to come home. I partly wished that I listened to him on one of our phone calls; and how that would have changed things. I would have went straight back to Ben; and yes we would have loads to talk about but we wouldn't be in the situation we were currently in.

We were told that our family could come to see me after I had my scan; but Ben then interjected that he wanted to speak to me before that. I then nodded at this; I couldn't get over how awkward and confusing it was with Ben – but this was understandable given the fact what we both had been through over the last few months. However before I could fixate on this any further I was pulled out of my train of thought as a member staff walked into the room – pulling the ultrasound in with them.

The sonographer then introduced herself as Rosie; and she then explained the process of me having my scan. In all honesty I kind of knew what to expect due to classes given in Auradon Prep and my first scan. However actually having the scan was another thing – as I was told that we needed to make sure that nothing was wrong with the baby this time around and we could find out the gender.

"Let's meet your little one" Rosie said happily as I started to worry whether there was anything wrong with our baby. I then watched as Rosie pulled my shirt up slightly before she rubbed some cold gel onto my stomach; she then winked at me before she started to run a probe along my stomach. "Hmm" she hummed as she continued to stare at the screen.

"What?" Ben asked for us both as I started to grasp the bed sheets tightly.

"You have a perfect little one here" Rosie advised which caused us both to sigh in relief.

"Am I in labour?" I quickly asked as no one would give me a straight answer to this.

"No" she answered. "You are having Braxton Hicks" she explained.

"What are they?" I questioned.

"They are like a practice labour" Ben answered for her which caused me to look at him. "You get them leading up to your labour" he added which made me nod; by the looks of it he had been paying attention to Uma's pregnancy.

"I see" I noted.

"Yes" he replied.

"Would you like to know what you are having?" Rosie asked eagerly which caused me and Ben to look at her.

"Do you want to know?" I questioned as I looked back at Ben.

"Isn't that up to you?" he asked nervously; and I couldn't help but notice another change in Ben. There were times when Ben seemed content with my pregnancy and then there times like this when he seemed uncertain. It was like he felt like he shouldn't have a right to make any decisions about our baby - this was something that we would need to talk about this.

"No" I answered quickly. "It's up to us both" I urged. "What do you want to do?" I offered; and I watched as a small smile slowly spread across his face.

"I would like to know" he advised.

"Me too" I smiled and we both eagerly looked back at Rosie.

"Here" Rosie said as she turned the screen and me and Ben both gasped. Our baby looked so perfect; and when I felt them move slightly I grinned. Me and our baby had been through so much already; and I couldn't wait to meet them so the three of us could start our lives together.

"Ben there's our baby" I muttered as I didn't take my eyes off the screen.

"Yes" I heard him say as he slid both of his hands onto my left and he gave it a gentle squeeze.

"Ready?" Rosie asked.

"Yes" me and Ben answered together.

"Here" Rosie said and the screen moved and we saw the obvious gender of our perfect little baby.

"Mal" I heard Ben say.

"Yes?" I answered.

"Our perfect Prince" I heard him say and I finally tore my eyes away from the screen and I looked at Ben. I noticed that there were tears in his eyes; however the look that he was throwing at the screen was one of pride. He then slowly looked over to me and he smiled at me when our eyes locked. I felt driven to reassure him so I pushed my face towards his and I pressed a brief kiss against his lips.

When we pulled away I watched as something changed in his eyes; I watched as a large grin spread across his face before he quickly pressed a brief kiss against my lips. When we broke apart we both looked back to the screen; and to our new addition. Yes things hadn't worked out the way me and Ben wanted; but the fact that we were now together in this moment it showed me that it was truly me and Ben against the world.
