The 33rd week swung by with another pound added to both. She was finally was let go from work seeing as she was too uncomfortable and distracted to work. They let her go easy and she was pleased with the company. She could still work from home making her attitude overall excited. She finally became more comfy at home. Chad, who was recently let go from the Bar, started making more visits at home while Gabby was there, making Chad very excited for the pregnancy.
Although the whole sleeping with Charlie thing made it awkward, she forgave him, and Charlie went home to be with her fiance' and talk everything out. He was angry, but understood that when you put two and two together, being alcohol, things get messed up. But Gabby was still angry that the whole thing had to happen in the first place. She hated the whole fact that everyone had to be cheating on someone. Even if Charlie and Chad were ment to be like her and Troy in their situation.
The 34th week visited them with her gaining another pound. She found it more difficult for her to leave the house in far lengths like Sharpay's house. She sometimes had to drive Gabby home and stay over till the next day. She was majorly relaxed and was just waiting for her little Brandon to come. She agreed on the name only and didn't tell Troy yet. He wants Liam.
"Welcome to the near of the end." She thought aloud writing in Troy's daddy book. She promised not to read the previous entries, so she wrote her own. She sighed thinking.
Her 35th week came and she was ready to have this baby. She gained another pound assuming her baby did too. Now visiting her doctor weekly, she was recieving cervical exams and making sure she wouldn't go into preterm labor. She was getting more exhausted and tired.
Next her 36 week greeted her with more aches, but she was actually less responsive to them. She was sleeping in more, she was feeling more alert, and was overall excited. But the waiting was killing her and she didn't know how to handle it. Troy just recieved some time off of his work, but he would have to occassionally visit.
Finally she met her due date on June 1st once the 37 week approached. It was basically the same issue she was experencing the past few weeks. The only main issue was that since her due date was already met, she was just waiting.
June 5th.
She folded the towel and threw it on the pile of other folded towels. She giggled hearing Troy and Chad argue over the call in the baseball game. She waddled over to them dumping clothes out of the basket onto their laps. Chad groaned and Troy smiled looking at her.
"Babe, sit down." He said sternly. She shook her head and waddled over with more towels.
"You know works not going to get done if I sit around all day." She threw the basket and one towel fell over. She bent over and grabbed the towel effortlessly. Chad clapped amazed in her ability to do things that pregnant.
"Wow. That's amazing." She nodded and walked into the kitchen. "Do you ever worry about her sometimes?" Chad asked as Troy swigged some beer down and finished folding a towel. He simply shook his head.
"Only the fact that she said she was getting bad cramps two days ago and she said she felt this feeling like she was in an elevator and her stomach dropped." He shrugged. "Other then that, we're all good." He smiled and then they both heard a huge gasp come from the kitchen. Troy stood up and looked over quickly.
"Trooooy." She moaned and then groaned. He stood there frozen as he heard her rip a papertowel. He ran over quickly and watched as his fiance' had a huge water stain down her grey yoga pant leg. She looked up at him worried.
"Oh my god its happening..." She said afraid. He stood there looking at her like she had four heads.
"I'm pregnant." She said closing her eyes and tensing up. The whole world just stopped for both of them. He was shocked.
She turned red angry. "ARE YOU JUST GOING TO STAND THERE AND WATCH ME FREAK OUT!" She screamed. Chad ran over afraid.
"Did your water break?" Chad asked looking nervous. Gabby nodded. Chad screamed like a girl and Gabby began to laugh as he ran to the room and grabbed both of their overnight bags. Gabby clutched her stomach feeling the baby and wondering if anything was wrong. He wasn't happily like he was before, but she knew that once her water broke, there would be less movements. She sighed happily as she pressed her finger into her stomach waiting for the feeling of a soft elbow to knock her.
"Someone's ready to see the world huh?" She said softly with a smile on her face. Troy standing there shocked watching the whole thing couldn't believe it was happening now. He then unfroze running to her resting his hand on her stomach as well in the spot he always placed his hands. He felt a soft kick and he smiled too.
"He's ready." She said smiling looking into his face as Troy looked into hers kissing her softly. She pulled back making circles on her tummy.
"This is it." He said looking around wondering what it would be like now. She nodded as she gasped feeling a pain in her lower back. Troy looked at her worried and she sighed in pain.
"I guess this is a contraction...It's probably a Braxton Hicks one..." He looked at her stomach nodding.
"Well we better figure that out." She nodded as Chad came running back in with their bags. He was out of breath and a little worried.
"Come on Chad. We're going to have a baby." She said softly making a smile stretch across his face. Gabby giggled walking to her bedroom. "I'm going to change my pants and we can go." She smiled and pulled her phone out after she quickly changed her pants.
"Hello?" Sharpay wondered as she was finishing some left over chinese.
"Guess who's having a baby..." Gabby started off. She heard complete silence on the other line. She grabbed different pants and put them on waiting for a response.
"You. Fucking. Kidding. Me." She said running around the house. "I'm leaving now." Gabby smiled.
"I haven't even left yet." She giggled and Sharpay screamed.
"What kind of sick joke are you pulling on me?" She said angry and annoyed. Gabby gasped again as the little boy kicked her really hard. "This is serious isn't it?"
"Yeah. I'm leaving now. See you there. Oh!" She said before getting cut off with a nervous feeling "Call the boys and my parents. Bye." She hung up and ran over to the bathroom grabbing one of her bags.
Troy walked in with a huge smile grabbing her hand. "Let's go have a baby." He said confidently kissing her forehead.
He looked at her with her eyes close. He looked over to Chad who was fumbling around on his phone. He looked back to her as she looked down to her hand that was home to many ivys. He looked at the clock. To say he was nervous was an understatement. His eyes, and thoughts were bouncing around the room. It was only two hours ago that they found out that she might be in the hospital for over 24 hours. But they would jump start the labor if necessary. He looked down at his phone waiting for a reply from his parents.
"Agh!" She squealed resting her hand on the side of her stomach nearing her back. Chad looked over to Troy signalling to time this contraction. She clenched her jaw and bit down as she felt a shock of pain travel from her back to her hips, and to her pelvis. She took a deep breath letting the contraction pass through. She opened her eyes as Troy looked between her and his watch carefully. She sighed again feeling it get weaker, but it was still there. After one more sigh, it went away and she smiled.
"It's gone." Troy nodded and counted the fourty-five second contraction. "45. We went from 55 seconds to 45 in a twenty minute span." She nodded as she closed her eyes wiping a small form of sweat from her forehead. They all relaxed again and Troy began to focus. She was getting there.
Sharpay walked into the room cautiously seeing her bestfriend hooked up to many machines. She smiled walking over as Gabby smiled holding out her hand for Sharpay to hold. Sharpay was crying.
"I'm probably going to be here for a long time unless they jump start labor." Sharpay sat down next to Chad and smiled.
"Wow. This is happening right?" Gabby nodded blushing. She looked over to the monitors placing a hand on her swollen stomach. She smoothed out the wrinkles in her gown. She sighed feeling him kick her in the hand again for assurance that it was going to be okay. She relaxed since this was the first time since her water broke that she felt any movement from him. She pulled Sharpay's hand to touch her stomach.
"So what I do, is when he kicks me too hard, I press my finger right here." She pointed. "And then he elbows me in that spot telling me to leave him alone. Try it-But wait, he has to kick real hard." She grabbed Sharpays other hand and placed it where he kicks deadly.
After waiting 30 seconds, he gave her one huge kick that made her gasp and then Sharpay noticed this, pressed her finger gently into the spot and felt a soft thunk at her finger tip. Sharpay burst out into laughter feeling that. Pulling her hands away she sighed as she looked over to the two men talking.
"You guys go. I got her." Troy looked at her dumbly as if he was going to leave her at all. Gabby shot him a look and he stood up with Chad. They left the room and Gabby grabbed Sharpay's hand.
"Did you call my parents?" She asked worried. Sharpay nodded and smiled.
"Yeah, they left the brunch. I called them as soon as you called me babe." She smiled stroking her hand. Gabby sighed.
"I can't believe I'm going to be a mom now." She said excited. "Its all too real." Sharpay nodded.
"What are you going to name him?" She wondered finally getting her selection down.
"I have four in mind. Isaac, Brandon, Dylan, and Liam." She said taking a deep breath. "I don't like Liam, but Troy does. So therefore it has to be in my top pick." Their doctor walked in and Gabby smiled.
"Gabriella!" Her doctor announced as she went over and looked at her charts. "You're in Labor now!" They all smiled. "Right now since you are still not that dilated, we would like to induce your labor. That means the contractions will come faster and be more painful." Gabby nodded.
"I also don't want to be on any pain medications." She said honestly and the doctor nodded.
"Alright. We will make this labor go way quicker now! We should have a baby in about seven hours." From 24 to 7, this day just got a bit interesting. Grabbing her arm and placing another ivy, the liquid entered her blood stream.
After an hour, Troy went to call his parents when he heard a loud scream come from her room. Dropping his phone and running into the room, he witnessed her standing up over her bed clutching over as she was experiencing a painful contraction. Grabbing her and holding her for support, she quitely screamed between her teeth taking a deep breath. Finally letting out a gust of air, she was taking deep breaths.
"Baby, get in bed." He said seriously. She looked at him and nodded lying back in bed. "How long have they been killing you?" She closed her eyes breathing heavily still.
"There was one before it that hurted, but then this one just slammed me hard." She groaned pulling her long hair into a side pony tail. He stared at her grabbing her hand and kissing it. She sat indian style in bed. She stared at him regaining her breath. He kissed her gently and he kissed back sharing one of the last few tender moments as two.
Screaming in pain as Troy held her hand, the contractions were getting very close. She was almost 10 centimeters dialated and she was ready to push. The doctors grabbed her feet, brought her bed closer, and had her sit upright. She looked completely defeated, fragile, and tired, this was the moment they've been waiting for. She was hunched over feeling a contraction ripple through her.
"Alright Gabby. Let's do some pushing. Take a deep breath and go." Gabby nodded pushing as best as she could. Having no idea what it ment, but she pushed hard through the contraction easing the pain slightly. The contraction quickly disapearred and she threw her head back and panted.
"You're doing a great job babe." She nodded as he quickly kissed her forehead.
"Alright, in about ten minutes we will have our little baby Bolton." They both nodded, Troy grinning, Gabby scowling. She groaned feeling the common pang ripple through her back again. "Ready, push." The doctor commanded. She pushed again feeling extreme pain with the push. Throwing her head back trying to hold in a scream, she couldn't believe that she decided to go through with no medication. "Wow, your crowning right now. Alright, one more big push and this is it." Her mom ran into the room as they were continuing on with the Labor. Gabby looked over to her angry and out of breath.
"I wouldn't miss it for the world baby girl." She said making Gabby sigh and feel the pain of her contraction. Her mom grabbed her other hand squeezed it as she pushed on her own cue.
"Almost there!" The doctor shouted. Gabby concentrated on the last painful pull from her stomach screaming loudly as the felt the pressure release from her body and a screaming baby came from the other side of the room. Thats when she saw it. Her baby boy covered in her blood, she wiped her sweat off of her forehead as her tears came pouring.
Troy stared at the baby that was being placed on Gabriella's stomach as she couldn't believe what she was looking at. He was perfect in everyway. He had light brown hair mixed with both their color. His body was perfectly small as Gabby reached out to grab his little hand.
"Troy, cord?" He looked up to her mom that was beeming and looking at her smile towards the baby. He walked over and cut the cord releasing the attachment Gabby had with her baby. "Congrats guys!" She said as a nurse picked the baby up, going to clean it. Troy looked down at her as she watched the nurse take care of the wailing baby. She looked up to him when her mother walked over and snapped pictures of him.
"Troy?" She asked as he looked down with tears. He smiled and kissed her excited.
"We did it baby!" He announced excited kissing her again. She was excited to be a mom, but she was ready to pass out. She still had the afterbirth to go.
"Alright gabby, you're almost done. We have to do the afterbirth and you're all set for recovery." She nodded as Troy went over to see his baby boy.
"Grandma?" He asked cautiously. She looked over and smiled.
"He's gorgeous." She said lost for words. The nurse finished up and picked him up. The two stepped back and she brought the baby over to Gabriella who looked deathly tired. She smiled and sat up as the doctors put everything away. The nurse carefully placed him in her arms. His eyes were remained shut until she put her finger onto his palm. He opened his eyes and fluttered displaying light brown eyes. She smiled and sighed in success winning her baby boy's beautiful eyes.
"He look's like a Brandon to me." She said. The name she was always wanting for him. Troy looked at her.
"Liam." He stirred in her arms and cooed at her. She smiled and kissed his forehead handing him over to Troy.
"He's 7 pounds and 24 inches." The nurse informed them and she smiled. "Congrats."
"He does...Look like a Brandon..." Troy honestly admitted. Liam was for a blonde. Brandon was for a brunette.
She was lying in bed sleeping as Troy sat on the edge of the bed stroking her hair as she slept. Before she went to bed, she was in pain after giving birth to Brandon. She was uncomfortable and couldn't move well. As she drifted off to sleep, he was right by her side.
Brandon Michael Bolton was sleeping in the nursery peacefully. She stirred and looked up at Troy yawning.
"I'm never having a natural birth ever again." She said to him and he chuckled.
"Well, not alot of moms get to say they did that." She nodded looking around.
"Let's go see him. I want to hold him." She cooed and Troy smiled.
"I do too." He stood up. "I'll get the nurse to bring him down." She sat up as he left.
Gabriella Montez. A mom.
