Chapter 7
Margaret sighed gently as she sat next to Lindsey.
'Not much longer now.' She told herself.
They were in hospital; Lindsey had gone into labour and was now giving birth. Margaret and Ed were both present in the room with her, the rest of their family waiting outside. Lindsey screamed in pain and Margaret did her best to soothe her.
"It's gonna be okay Lindsey, it's gonna be okay." She told her brother's girlfriend.
Lindsey fought to control her breathing before turning to Margaret.
She shook her head, in disbelief. "Okay? Maggie, I got drunk, thanks to a jealous ex and I'm having your brother's baby…how is that okay?!"
Her voice rose towards the end as her pain grew again.
Margaret smiled kindly. "You have all of us, we'll help you."
Before Lindsey could respond, another contraction hit and she groaned. Ed and Margaret, both seated on either side of her, took one of her hands, doing their best to comfort her.
Ed grinned as he heard his sister's words. 'Maggie's right, they're all with us, our parents, Lindsey's mom, her mom's co-workers, everyone.'
Margaret smiled gently when she saw her brother's expression and once again, she was certain supporting her brother and his girlfriend, after their tumultuous time during the pregnancy, had been the right decision.
Finally, sometime later, the baby was born; Margaret grinned as she watched, along with the rest of the family. Lindsey was sitting upright in the bed, cradling her new-born daughter; Ed sat next to her, smiling very much the proud father.
"You did it." He said happily.
Lindsey nodded and Margaret grinned again. Everybody was very happy, all eager to see the baby. It was then Lindsey looked up at her and smiled.
"Maggie, wanna hold your niece?"
Margaret smiled at that. "I…Yes, thank you."
She came closer and Lindsey gently passed the baby girl, they had named her Sharon, to Margaret. Margaret gently cradled Sharon; noted that the girl seemed at ease with her already, almost as much as she was with her parents.
"Awww." She said softly. "She takes after her mom."
Lindsey smiled at that, happy that finally, after so much worry and difficulty, she had finally given birth and the baby was thankfully healthy.
End of chapter, hope you enjoyed it, read and review please.
