Epilogue

Steph's POV

Six Months Later

"Shit! This is so not the time," I cursed as Bobby and I were on the field. He looked back at me.

"What is it Steph?" he asked looking back at me and my big baby bump. My water had just broken and just as we were getting our skip too.

"Is that what I think it is or did you pee yourself?" he asked, "jeez, Steph we are supposed to grow out of this stage."

"Just shut up and get me to the damn hospital! And call Carlos, I am so not in the mood for your jokes, Brown," I yelled. A contraction hit.

"Oww! Shit! Get. Me. To. The Hospital. NOW," I screamed. I saw his eyes widen and he jogged over.

"Get in the car Steph, we can be in there in five," he told me. He opened the door and boosted me up. I had read about pregnancy and what to expect but I was forgetting pretty much everything when the second one hit. I did manage to remember the Lamaze classes I took with Carlos. Bobby drove to the hospital and called Carlos. He got me in the hospital and the doctors and nurses took me to a room. Bobby sat next to me and squeezed my hand.

"Don't worry Steph, he's on his way. He was in the middle of a meeting with a client but he ran out as soon as I called," Bobby assured me. A doctor came in and another contraction hit.

"How far apart are they?" he asked and I immediately looked at Bobby.

"You leave everything for me to do," he muttered shaking his head, "they were irregular at first but now they're about three minutes apart." The doctor spread my legs and since I had gotten into one of those ugly hospital gowns he was able to check.

"You are dilated but you're not ready yet. Do you want an Epidural?" the doctor asked.

"Of course I want a freakin' epidural!" I yelled as another contraction hit, this one stronger than the last.

"Where the hell is Carlos?" I asked Bobby while I currently had the death grip on his hand.

"He'll be here Steph," Bobby told me, "now if you could just let go of my..." I let go and he let out a sigh of relief.

"Ninny," I mumbled. I saw him grin. Ranger came in about five minutes and another contraction later. He was out of breath and he had on a business suit. He looked so hot. I licked my lips and another contraction hit. It didn't hurt with the epidural in, I was a happy woman. Well almost, I could still sort of feel it but not really. Ranger came over to my side and grabbed my hand.

"The doctor came in a little bit ago he said she was almost fully dilated," Bobby told him. He nodded as he took Bobby's spot.

"I'll go inform the rest of RangeMan and Steph's family," Bobby said as he left the room.

"Hey, Babe. How're you doing?" he asked with a smile.

"Better. The Epidural works wonders," I told him with a grin.

Ranger's POV

Bobby had called me informing that Steph's water broke. I rushed out of the client meeting, leaving Tank in charge. I drove as fast as I could to the hospital. I found her room with help from the nurse. Bobby was right next to her. Bobby had only been gone a couple of minutes when the doctor came back announcing that it was time to push. Steph pushed and she squeezed my hand 'till I thought it would fall off. She gave birth to a beautiful baby boy.

"Mr. Manoso would you like to cut the umbilical cord?" the doc asked. I nodded and cut it. They wrapped our baby in a blue blanket.

"What are you going to name him?" he asked with a smile. I looked over at Steph who was holding him.

"Gabriel Ricardo Manoso," she murmured, "Gabriel for my grandpa and Ricardo for Carlos." She was giving him my last name. I was ecstatic.

"That's a great name babe," I told her as I held my boy. He had blue eyes, which is unusual considering brown eyes are more dominant. Guess part of my babe was in him. I smiled as I held him.

"Hi, Gabriel," I cooed as I gently rocked him. He had lighter skin than mine but darker than Steph's.

Steph's POV

Our baby boy was the cutest baby ever. It was a Hallmark moment watching Carlos hold him. Carlos and I had talked about naming our baby. We didn't know the gender so we could be surprised. We had two names picked out, one for a boy and the other for a girl. Haylee Rose was for the girl but Gabriel Ricardo for the boy. Haylee was my dad's mom's name so that's why I picked it and Rose for Carlos' Grandma Rosa.

All my friends and family came to see him the next couple of days after I got out of the hospital. Carlos surprised me by getting everything set up so we could get married in the little house we had bought. He invited Tank, Lester, Mary Lou, and Lula. We got married and it was spectacular. Of course we weren't going on a honeymoon any time soon. Our life was great. I was married to the love of my life and we had little Gabe. Gabe actually didn't make too much of a fuss. He cried of course, but that was expected. Carlos and I would take turns getting up in the night. My mother was not pleased at all to learn of our marriage but we were happy and that's all that mattered.

A/N: What'd you think of the last chapter? I made up the story of why they picked the names so, it's probably not the real names of the family members. If there was something wrong with how everything happened during the birth I apologize because I haven't had the privilege of becoming a mother...yet. So if anything was wrong I found most of it on the internet and you can tell me what I messed up. I hope you enjoyed the whole story. Thanks for all the reviews and encouragement. =) Now I'll work on Have You Forgotten?, then I'll probably take a break from writing fanfiction because I need to focus a little more on real life.
