A/N: The masses have spoken, the gender has been decided. Maybe. Unless I get an overwhelming crazy amount of reviews voting for the opposite. (hint hint, REVIEW) Anyways, enjoy!

Chapter 4

Max's POV

I kissed Fang, but more deeply this time. I missed him. We hadn't kissed, really kissed, in so long. I could tell he missed it as well. But I had been tired with the baby, and he was tired with work so nothing happened.

I got as close to him as I could and breathed him in. In a way it wasn't fair, he got to keep his beautiful body in shape, and me, not so much. After the baby is born, I am so hitting the gym. Hard.

He hugged me to him and hummed. "I wish we could get closer."

"I thought you wanted a baby." I teased. He smiled.

"Of course I do. It's just, I don't know." He kissed the top of my head and rolled over to turn off the lamp.

"Fang?"

"hm."

"I'm scared."

"For what?"

"For, you know, giving birth." I shuddered at the thought.

"Well that's something we haven't really talked about have we?"

"No, I guess not." It was silent for a while.

"Do want me in the room?"

"When?"

"When the baby comes."

I looked up at him and could see he was looking for a serious answer, than I nuzzled into his bare chest.

"Of course. As parents, I think we should be together."

He relaxed and started rubbing my back "Good. I want to be there."

"But only you. And the doctors. And me of course. My mother said she didn't particularly want to be left out, but I don't know. I'd rather it's just me and you. Besides, when I'm at my most ugly, painful, yet wonderful part of my life, I want to share that with you. Ella wants me, her parents, Iggy, Nudge and some others. I guess that just seems kind of awkward."

He nodded.

So sorry it's so short! I needed to post something though, so here you go. REVIEW! That is literally my motivation.
