Chapter 2
"Lucas!!" Brooke cried out, her voice thick with pain.
Lucas leaned towards her hospital bed and took put her hand protectively against his chest, " I know it hurts-but it won't be much longer.
The doctor said the baby will come within the hour."
"Why did we want to do this?!" Brooke asked taking deep shaking breaths.
"It wasn't planned dear, but it is wanted," Lucas said grinning and rubbing Brooke's stomach with the free hand she wasn't clutching for dear life.
Brooke managed a small smile, but her eyes were shining with joy despite the pain. Lucas leaned over and kissed her forhead.
"Oh my god!! Luc- I- I have to push, "
Lucas gently massaged circles on her lower back trying to be brave, trying not to
run out into the hall to scream for the doctor, instead he –as calmly as he could-pressed the call button on Brooke's hospital bed.
"Yes?" the calm voice of the night nurse asked.
"Yes, this is Mr. Scott in room 104, umm, my wife-" He began grasping at the words his heart pounding before Brooke interrupted him.
"We need the doctor-Now!" Brooke yelled.
"Yes, he'll be right there." The nurse replied in the same calm voice.
Brooke clutched Lucas's hand for the next powerful contraction and the doctor entered the room as she panted when it was finished.
"Mrs. Scott, it appears you are ready to deliver a baby today," he said after he checked her.
Brooke looked at Lucas tears on her cheeks and unshed tears making her eyes sparkle. "Lucas, we're going to have a baby."
Lucas smiled that smile of his and everything was right.
1 hour later
After many pushs, screams and the almost break of Lucas's fingers,
Brooke lay back with an exhausted sigh, and the doctor handed Lucas a tiny bundle in a white blanket striped with pink and blue.
"Mr. Scott, here is your son" The doctor said smiling, "All 6 ½ pounds of him—he would have weighed close to if not 10 if he'd made it to term. Either way he's here, he's healthy and he belongs to the two of you." He turned and left the room.
Lucas placed the tiny bundle in Brooke's outstretched arms.
"Mrs. Lucas Scott, may I present our son, Mr. Keith Brian Scott," Lucas smiled and gave her a hopeful look.
Brooke smile grew huger amist her tears of joy, and she couldn't help but giggle.
"Yes Mr. Brooke Davis, our son Keith Brian Scott it is" Brooke said looking into his eyes. "He looks just like you"
"No, I think he is going to have his mother's eyes though."
"What! His eyes are blue-like yours. "
"All babies have blue eyes…"
Brooke scoffed.
Lucas shrugged and said, "Mark my words, his eyes will be hazel, like his mothers."
"Okay, if you say so-"
"I do."
"I love you Lucas."
"And I Brooke Scott love you."
"And we love you too, our little baby Keith" Brooke cooed at the baby, as he reached up to tug a strand of her long brown locks.
"This is perfect, your perfect." Lucas said huskily as he kissed her softly.
