Chapter 29 - Rory POV
This morning I woke and there was blood everywhere. Tris got me up and took me to the hospital. They paged Dr. Rhodes and we waited. When she came in, she did an ultrasound and said that everything looked normal. However, she did say that I was in active labor. They put an IV in and gave me some pain meds.
Tris and I had decided to wait until after the baby was born before we called everyone to come up to the hospital.
10 hours later…Tris and I welcomed our baby into the world. We were so happy. While I rested, Tris went outside to called all of our family and our friends.
A little while later, we were gathered around by our family and our friends. I could see the smiles on their faces. "I want to thank all of you for coming today. This is a joyful occasion and Tris and I are very excited to introduce you guys to this little one." I said looking down at my son in my arms. I could feel the tears running down my face. Damn these hormones! I wiped the tears from my face and looked back up at everyone.
I handed Tris the baby. "Rory and I want you all to meet the newest member of our family. We'd like to introduce Lucas Gabe DuGrey." Tris said.
He handed Lucas to my mom. "Oh Ror, he's beautiful." She said.
After Mom held him for a minute, she handed him to Alexandria. "Oh look at this precious thing. Tristin he looks just like you." Alexandria said.
"You think so?" He asked her.
"Absolutely." She said.
After spending a couple days in the hospital, Dr. Rhodes released me to go home. Tristin had some vacation time built up so decided to use it to be home with me and Lucas. Crystal had been great. Granted Savannah didn't need to be taken care of like she used to, Crystal had stuck around because she knew that Tris and I had been trying to have a baby. Turns out it was a good thing that she did.
Even though things have been up and down the last several years, it all turned out alright. Who would have thought that Tristin was just what I needed in my life to make me feel complete?
