Christian's POV
Baby bag and Ana's bag- packed. Car seat- installed. Nursery-finished. Clothes and blankets-washed and folded. Baby- not quite yet.
Ana is six days overdue. She's uncomfortable and cranky, not that I blame her. Carson is the exception to that. She never allows herself to be cranky around him. She makes time everyday for cuddling and activities together. In fact, Carson helps her try to induce labor. They go on walks outside, bounce on exercise balls and have spicy food eating contests. None of it has worked. Emma is refusing to come out. We go to the doctor in three days if Ana hasn't gone into labor. They'll admit and induce her. So in three days or less, I'm going to be holding Emma in my arms. I walk into Ana and I's bedroom to find Ana laying down and Carson talking to her stomach.
" Emma, this is your big brother. You need to come out. My cast comes off in two weeks and I got pink for you! I'm going to be mad at you if you don't come soon. I still love you though. You just really need to be born. If you come soon, I have a present for you. I picked it out. I think you'll like it. But you need to come home to get it. I love you.", he kisses Ana's stomach and sits up. He blushes as he sees me standing in the doorway watching him.
" She needed to hear that. Maybe now she'll grace us with her presence.", I go and sit on the bed with my family. I sigh happily. My family. It seems unreal.
" Dad, why won't she come out? Is she scared?", Carson asks. He's always so curious.
" She's being stubborn. She likes how warm and comfy her current room is. Little does she know, she has a comfy room out here too. I don't think she's scared, she just doesn't want to come out.", I laugh. Carson groans.
" I'm gonna really have to watch her. She's gonna be the death of me!", he says dramatically. Ana presses her lips together in an attempt to keep her giggles in.
" Alright little man. It's bedtime. Give your mother and Emma a kiss and then off to bed. I'll be in to read you a story soon.", I ruffle his hair. He grins and nods his head.
" Night Mommy, night Emma.", He quickly kisses Ana on the lips and on the stomach. He darts off to his room and I chuckle.
" Go tuck our son in and then come to bed.", Ana kisses my lips and pushes me away playfully. I grin and head to Carson's room. He's laying on his bed, holding a picture frame. I sit next to him on the bed and take the frame from his hands. It's the most recent ultrasound picture of Emma. He's such a loving older brother.
" I can't wait to meet her.", He whispers.
" Neither can I. She'll be here soon though.", I kiss his forehead. I place the frame on his bedside table and start reading his favorite book. He falls asleep halfway through and light snores fill the room. I kiss his cheek and head back to my room.
Ana's already asleep so I quietly and gently climb in next to her. I'm not tired so I decided to use this quiet time to think. I can't wait to meet Emma. Though at the same time, I'm worried something will happen. I know they'll be fine, but I love Ana and Emma too much for anything to happen to them. I wouldn't be able to handle it. I wonder what she'll look like. Me? Ana? A perfect mix? I hope she get's Ana's eyes and flawless skin. Actually, I hope she's a carbon copy of Ana. If she isn't, I won't love her any less. She'll still be perfect.
Elena enters my mind. She was sentenced to fifteen years in prison. When the baby was born, he went straight to his father. Elena signed the divorce papers as soon as she got served with them. She also signed away her rights to Carson. I've decided that when I ask Ana to marry me, I'll ask if she wants to adopt Carson and officially make him her son. I was a jackass. Not only to Elena but to Ana too. Before Emma was conceived I was just leading them both on. I was being a selfish bastard. I can't regret it though. It led me to where I am today. I can't regret cheating on Elena. Ana and I made Emma that way. It exposed Elena for being a pedophile and for cheating on me.
I slowly drift off to sleep. My dreams filled with family events. My children's laughter. My Ana's beautiful smile. A huge engagement ring. A beautiful wedding. Signed adoption papers. My future plays out in my dreams and even if it doesn't turn out exactly like that, I'm still anxious for it. I want that. I'm stuck in dream land when I faintly hear my name being called. Three, four times. My dream land starts shaking. Suddenly my eyes snap open and I see Ana leaning over me, shaking me and calling my name.
" Christian, you need to wake up.", Ana shakes me. I groan and rub my eyes. I look at the clock, 3:41 am. What the hell? Please let it not be another craving.
" What's wrong?", my voice is filled with sleep.
" It's time. My water broke and I'm having contractions.", Ana takes a deep breath and grabs the side of her stomach. It takes me a minute to register to her words. I suddenly realize that our bed is wet. I look down and my eyes go wide.
HOLY FUCK! EMMA'S COMING!
