Chapter 2

I was now about five months pregnant. I had a doctor's appointment today and I was going to find out the gender of my baby. Abby, Bex, and Macey were on missions, Mom was dealing with the seventh graders who had just arrived, and Joe was filling out paperwork at the CIA so Liz took the day off to bring me to the doctor's.

We were waiting in the waiting room when a nurse said, "Cameron Morgan." I stood up and followed the nurse with Liz following me. She brought me to the doctor's room and my doctor smiled at me.

"Hi, Cammie! Hello again, Liz. Are you excited to learn the gender?" My doctor asked. I smiled and nodded. I had a sonogram and she smiled. "Congratulations! You're going to have a beautiful, healthy little girl."

Happy tears stung my eyes as I asked, "My baby's a girl?"

"Yes," She answered, smiling.

Liz squealed and hugged me. "This is going to be so great! She can go to Gallagher!" I laughed and nodded.

"We should get back to my family," I said. The doctor nodded and Liz and I left to drive to Gallagher. We got to Gallagher in about half an hour and when we got to my mom's office, her and Joe were having lunch.

"So, how was it? What gender is the baby?" Mom asked.

I smiled. "I'm having a girl!" Mom grinned and ran to hug me.

Joe smiled. "I win, Rachel!"

"What do you mean?" I asked.

Joe laughed. "I bet you'd have a girl and your mom guessed a boy."

I rolled my eyes. "You behave like children."

"We need to think of names!" Mom cheered.

"I like Samantha," Liz said.

I nodded. "That is a really pretty name."

"It is, although I feel Macey will be hurt she wasn't here to help us pick out the name," Mom said.

I laughed. "Too bad for her."

I was now nineteen years old and a full 8 and 3/4 months pregnant. I had been teaching Cove ops class and the girls I taught all loved me. They were so excited for the baby. Joe would come back and teach for a month or so while I had maternity leave. The girls told me I had to come back to show off my new baby, though.

My friends and family had all taken off work for the next two months so they wouldn't miss the baby's birth or first month of life. My mom would still work but since she didn't go on missions, it wasn't a problem.

I was sitting in the rocking chair in the brand new nursery in my house. Macey was packing cute little baby clothes in drawers, Liz was organizing books, and Bex was making sure everything was set up properly. I smiled at my friends and continued rocking in my chair.

"Cammie, this little girl is going to be so stylish," Macey commented. We all laughed and I gasped.

"What's wrong?" Bex asked.

My eyes opened wide in shock. "My water broke!" Ten minutes later, I was in a car on the way to the hospital with my bag and calls had been made to mom, Abby, and Joe.

After 6 hours of pain, I was handed a tiny little baby in a pink blanket.

I grinned as my family walked in and said, "Meet Samantha Elizabeth Morgan." I picked Liz's middle name because we made a deal in tenth grade that we would each have a kid with our middle name. I got Liz, Liz got Macey, Macey got Bex, and Bex got me.

"She's so tiny," Liz squealed with tears down her face.

"I can't believe you made that," Bex choked out. Macey nodded, speechless. Wow. Macey's never speechless.

"My baby has a baby! Oh gosh, I'm a grandmother," mom said.

Abby snorted. "And Joe's a step-grandfather."

"Shut up," Joe said. "Can I hold her?"

I smiled and nodded. "Here you go."

Joe grabbed her and rocked her. "She looks just like you." She did have my blue eyes like me but hers were much brighter. Other than that, there was no resemblance.

I shook my head. "She's Zach's little girl." She had little brown curls on her head already and she was just so beautiful. I swear she smirked at me and I cried. "I wish he could meet her."

"You could always tell him," Abby suggested.

I said, "No. It's for the best."

"We're protecting this little baby like she's our own and until Cammie says he can know, he's going to be nowhere near her," Macey said. I saw my three my best friends with defensive faces. I could tell they were going to sacrifice anything for her.

Hi! I know it's been forever and I'm sorry but I'm back! This chapter wasn't great but I'm halfway done with the third chapter so it should be up soon.
