It had been a week since Gabrielle had given birth to her baby girl. She was feeling a lot stronger and was being discharged tomorrow. The baby was not so lucky. Her condition was the same but she had months of recovery ahead of her. She had to stay in the incubator for at least another two months. The only time Gabrielle left the baby's side was when John told her to go and rest. The baby would have a visitor from Gabrielle's family every day. It was the afternoon. John had went out to get lunch for Gabrielle and himself. She was in the NICU reading the baby a children's story. She read her one every day. Brittney walked in.
"Hi." She said.
"Hey Britt."
"Hey you." She said going over to the incubator. "How are you today?" She sat down next to Gabrielle and looked at her. "How are you feeling today?"
"Good." "I'd be better if she was better." She said looking towards the incubator.
"Where's John?"
"He went to go get us lunch."
"You want to keep the baby don't you?"
"Yeah."
"You need to talk to John."
"I know." "I'm just afraid." "I know it'll be the end of us." "He doesn't want to be a father."
"I think he does."
"No he doesn't."
"Gabrielle he's here isn't he?"
"Just because of me." "He still thinks I plan on giving her up for adoption."
"Yeah you two definitely need to talk soon."
"I know."
Gabrielle and John had just finished their lunch. Brittney was gone.
"John we need to talk." She said.
"Ok."
"I want to keep the baby." "I love her, I can't give her up." "I know this is not what you want, so if you want to leave me, go ahead." "I hope you choose not to though because I love you."
"I want to keep her to."
"Really?"
"Really, I love her just as much as you do."
She hugged him. "I'm so happy you feel that way."
"Now that she's staying with us she needs a name."
"Yeah she does." "Well whatever we decide to name her her last name's going to be Cena."
"You sure?"
"Yeah." "Alright let's think what should pumpkins name be?"
