"Em, can't you like pop him back in there for like another week?" I said, panicking and grabbing the Vera Bradley bag, prepped for when Emma would go into labor.
"Shut up Jared and help me into the car!" Emma said, as I carried her bridal style to the SUV.
She laid in the backseat, heaving out deep breaths. Our eyes met in the rearview mirror, as I drove to the hospital.
"Jared Prescott, you're not going anywhere near my body after this!" Emma yelled, as I rubbed circles into her hand.
"I love you too baby, c'mon, you've got like 6 more hours of this babe."
"Someone get some Tylenol in me!" She screamed out,
"You heard my wife, get the painkillers." I said, looking at someone.
I'm not ready to be a dad. I haven't read enough books on how to be an awesome dad or perfected my pancakes yet. How am I going to do this? Am I sure I'm ready for this? C'mon Jared, be strong for Emma, she's going through torture right now. It's gotta hurt pushing a baby out.
"Congrats, you two have delivered a beautiful baby boy. Mr. Prescott, would you like to cut the umbilical cord?" The doctor said, handing a pair of scissors to me.
I took the scissors with shaky hands, and looked at my son. My son. Something I created, woah. His head is really big.
"Hi, I'm just gonna snip this real quickly and then I'll get out of your face." I whispered, cutting his umbilical cord.
"Have you two thought of what you're going to name him?" The doctor asked,
"Evan. Evan Lucas Prescott." Emma said, a small smile on her face.
"Perfect." I said, a grin on my face. I leaned over to peck Emma's lips and she smiled.
"No more kids after this." Emma said firmly,
"Em, I thought we agreed on having enough kids to have our own baseball team." I said, mocking sadness.
"Jared Prescott, you've got to be joking right now. Only two more kids at most." Emma decided,
"Fine," I sighed, "Can you believe that we're actually parents now? Like, we have a tiny little combination of us that'll be running around now."
"Not really, it feels kinda like a dream come true. We went to college together, I have my own label, and now we have a kid."
"I love you Emma Prescott." I said, pecking Emma's cheek.
"I love you more Jared Prescott." Emma said, turning to get a full kiss.
"Oh yeah, Evan, I love you also." I added in, glancing at our sleeping son.
