Chapter 4.
*THIRD PERSON'S P.O.V.*
22 year old Simon Lewis looks in amazement down at his newborn daughter Emily Samantha Lewis. She was born a few hours ago, after Isabelle had gone through many, many hours of excruciating labour pains. The labour had gone on too long and Izzy wasn't able to cope with the pain any longer, so she was given an emergency C-Section.
Emily weighed a healthy 6 pounds 2 ounces.
Isabelle is recovering from her labour and C-Section. When Simon left her she was settling down to sleep.
He cannot get over how perfect his little girl is. She has Isabelle's hair, pallor and mouth. She has Simon's eyes, bone struckter, nose and eye shape.
Simon and Isabelle had asked Clary and Jace to be Emily's godparents. They were elated, to say the least.
Simon hears the door to the bedroom open. He looks up from Emily's face to see Maryse. She smiles warmly at Simon who smiles back.
"Simon, Brother Zachariah needs to know if you two have chosen a name for the baby. Remember you need to give them your shadowhunter name for the records." She says.
When Simon ascended he had to choose a shadowhunter name for the records. He chose Graymark, elating Jocelyn and Luke.
"Yeah, her name is Emily Samantha Graymark." He says. Maryse smiles softly.
"How beautiful! Congratulations Simon, she's a total sweetheart." Maryse says. Simon smiles broadly.
"Thank you Maryse. Do you know how Izzy's doing?" He asks.
"Yes she's recovering well, she should wake up soon. I'll let you know when she does." She says.
"Thanks." Simon says.
10 minute later Simon hears a soft knock on the door. He looks up from Emily's face to see Tessa. She smiles softly at him.
"Hello Simon. Izzy is awake and well. She wants to see you and the baby." She says. Simon smiles broadly and carefully stands up with Emily in his arms.
He makes his way to the infirmary where he finds Isabelle propped up against a pile of pillows.
She smiles at her husband and daughter.
"Hey." Simon says softly, as he sits in the chair beside her bed.
"Hi." Izzy whispers.
"How you feeling?" He asks.
"Sore, but better than I did." She says.
"That's good." He says.
"How's our little girl?" She asks.
"As perfect as she was when she was born." Simon says. Isabelle smiles as she looks at her daughter in her husband's arms.
"Can I hold her?" Izzy asks.
"Of course." Simon says, gently placing their daughter in his wife's arms.
Izzy cradles her daughter to her chest, smiling softly down at her.
"She looks just like you." She whispers. Simon smiles softly at her.
"Emily Samantha Graymark. I don't think I've ever heard a more beautiful name." Simon says.
"Neither have I. Do you think she'll get on well Max?" Izzy asks.
"Definitely, I think they might even become parabatia." Simon says. Izzy grins broadly.
"I really hope so. They could be like you and Clary." Izzy says. Simon grins broadly. Shortly after Simon became a shadowhunter he asked Clary to be his parabatia. She was elated. They're a great pair of fighters and Clary has been doing a lot better in battle since she became parabatia with him.
"We can teach them to kick demon ass together." Simon says. Izzy smiles.
"You're daddy's so silly Emily." She coos to her daughter. Simon grins.
"I love you Isabelle."He whispers. Izzy smiles at him.
"I love you too Simon." She whispers. They stay like that for a few more hours, during which Simon sits up beside his wife and daughter. And that's how they fall asleep, together as a family at last.
Hope you enjoyed. Please review.
Love you all.
