Chloe was taking a nap by Beca's request. Granted, she was tired and her feet were killing her, so when she woke up, she felt a lot better. She hummed and tried to stretch before she got out of bed. She frowned when she heard music in the living room and went over there to see it. She didn't recon Beca listening to La Isla Bonita very often.
She found Beca and Charlotte dancing and singing. Well, Beca was singing. Charlotte was just trying to sing. She looked at Beca and tried to mirror her moves. It was so cute, she would raise her arms and start randomly jumping and try to sing along.
Beca then instructed her to put her hands on her hips and Charlotte did and they began shaking their hips from side to side. Well, Charlotte would shake her entire body from side to side and Beca would giggle and nod her head.
Chloe immediately grabbed her phone and started filming, since the song was still in the beginning. Beca then stood beside Charlotte and made a motion with her hands, like jazz hands and Charlotte repeated, trying to move her hips. Well, yeah, Beca wasn't the most articulated dancer ever and by the looks of it, Charlotte wasn't as well. Probably because she was still a child.
Beca then did the hand motion (or similar) to the one Beyoncé did in Single Ladies, with her hand on her hip and Charlotte repeated. Pretty good, actually.
When the song ended, the two stroke a pose to Chloe and then Charlotte started clapping, then she turned Beca.
"Mommy, who's Lyla?" she asked.
"Lyla who, sweetie?" Beca asked.
"Lyla Bonita. Who is she?" Charlotte asked.
Chloe covered her mouth so her giggle wouldn't be heard in the video.
"Ooh!" Beca said. "It's La Isla Bonita, honey. It's Spanish, it means the beautiful island."
"Oh!" Charlotte said. "Mamma, I know Spanish!"
Chloe chuckled and stopped filming.
"This has to go on YouTube." she said.
Beca chuckled and high fived Charlotte.
"Think you can teach your sister to dance like that?" Beca asked.
"Yes!" Charlotte said.
Beca smiled and the child threw herself on the couch to play with her doll while Beca went to the kitchen to grab a water bottle, placing a kiss on Chloe's lips before doing so.
oO0Oo
It was around 4 or 5 am when Charlotte suddenly got up. She rubbed her eyes, got out of bed, grabbed her doll and ran to her mothers' room. She slowly pushed the door opened and looked at them. They were sleeping peacefully.
Charlotte approached her redheaded mother, holding her doll in one hand and reached out to touch her very pregnant belly with the other. She immediately felt a kick and retracted her hand with a gasp.
"Mamma!" she exclaimed. Chloe only stirred. "Mamma! Wake up!"
Chloe then opened her eyes and jumped when she saw the shadow of her daughter's doll, startling Beca, who also woke up and screamed when she saw the doll.
"Oh my God, it's alive!" she screamed.
"Mommy!" Charlotte said.
Beca closed her eyes and took a few calming breaths.
"Oh Char." she said.
"Mommy! Mamma! Sophie!" Charlotte said.
"What? What about Sophie?" Chloe asked.
"I think she wants to come out, mamma." Charlotte said.
"How do you know?" Chloe asked.
Charlotte shrugged and pointed Chloe's legs and that's when they found Chloe's water broke, so they immediately sat up.
"Okay, we have to call the doctor." Beca said, grabbing the phone.
"I'll call Stacie and Aubrey." Chloe said, grabbing her cell phone.
Charlotte just stood there, holding her doll.
After Beca called an ambulance, Chloe hung up and felt a contraction for the first time. Charlotte and Beca ran to her side, the bigger brunette rubbed circles on her back as Charlotte said it would be alright.
Aubrey and Stacie arrived first. They promised Beca and Chloe they'd take care of Charlotte and bring her to the hospital once Sophie was born. They had already called their parents and they were taking flights to LA, it wouldn't take them long to get there.
At first, Charlotte was too excited to go to sleep, but after 30 minutes, she fell asleep on Aubrey's lap, who also fell asleep.
Stacie couldn't sleep though. She helped Aubrey and Charlotte to Beca and Chloe's bed before she went downstairs and called Beca. She stayed on the phone with her and Chloe for a good hour before they had to hang up.
At 9 in the morning, Stacie started slowly working on breakfast and, pretty soon, Charlotte woke up. She came into the kitchen holding Stacie's cell phone and rubbing her eye.
"It's ringing, Aunt Tacie." she mumbled.
"Oh! Thanks honey." Stacie said and grabbed her phone and answered it, putting her phone between her ear and her shoulder as she flipped the pancake.
"Hello?"
"Stacie? Oh my God!" it was Beca.
Stacie stopped what she was doing immediately.
"Beca?" she asked.
Charlotte perked up at that and opened her eyes.
"Mommy?" she asked and Stacie nodded at her.
"Oh my God, Stacie.. Sophie was born! She's so beautiful!" Beca said and Stacie could tell she was crying.
"Oh my God! Okay, I'm gonna wake Aubrey, we're gonna get Charlotte dressed and we'll be right there!" Stacie said.
Stacie hung up and turned to the anxious, awaiting child.
"You're a big sister, Char!" she said and Charlotte started jumping and screaming in excitement. She jumped on Stacie's arms and Stacie hugged her tightly.
"Now we have to wake Aunt Aubrey, get dressed and go to the hospital to meet your sister!"
"Yay! I'll wake Aunt Aubee!" Charlotte announced and ran upstairs. She jumped on the bed, screaming that she was a big sister and it didn't take long before Aubrey was awake and just as excited as Charlotte and Stacie were.
Aubrey got Charlotte dressed in jeans and the shirt her and Stacie gave to her on the baby shower and they went downstairs. Stacie was already dressed and had packed their breakfast. They were all so excited they went to the car and got to the hospital in less than 10 minutes.
Stacie held Charlotte's hand and went to the room Chloe and Beca were in. Aubrey slowly pushed the door in to find Beca sitting on an armchair next to Chloe's bed. The redhead had a tired smile but neither was holding a baby.
"Hey!" Aubrey said.
"Mommy! Mamma!" Charlotte sat and jumped on her brunette's mother lap. "Where is Sophie?"
"A nurse took her to see if she was alright. She'll be right back baby." Beca said.
Stacie and Aubrey sat down on the couch and Stacie yawned, taking out a sandwich with peanut butter and cut up bananas. She saw the look Charlotte gave her when she did so she just chuckled and gave it to the child instead.
"Oooh, Aunt Stacie made breakfast?" Beca said.
"I did, I have more if you guys want." Stacie offered.
"Oh I'd take one of these if you have another one." Beca said, pointing at her daughter's sandwich.
Stacie chuckled and handed Beca another sandwich when the nurse came back to Sophie.
They all sat up right and Charlotte gave her sandwich to Beca before she approached Chloe's bed, trying to get a good look at Sophie. Beca put the two sandwiches on a container that Stacie offered and picked her daughter up, sitting her next to Chloe on the bed.
"Hi Sophie!" Charlotte said with a smile as she looked down at the baby. "Aunt Aubee, the album!"
Aubrey didn't know why Charlotte insisted they brought a photo album, but she gave the album to the little brunette anyway.
"What are you gonna do, sweetie?" Chloe asked.
"Look, Sophie!" Charlotte said, opening the album. "This is our family. This is mommy and this is mamma."
Chloe and Beca smiled and their eyes filled with tears as they watched Charlotte go through the pages and talking about people.
"Oh! Look Sophie! It's Aunt Aubee and Aunt Tacie! They're here to see you." Charlotte said, closing the album and putting it away.
Charlotte smiled as she watched her sister sleep peacefully in Chloe's arms.
"Mamma, can I give her a kiss?" Charlotte asked.
"Of course, I think she'll love it!" Chloe said.
Charlotte leaned down carefully and placed a soft kiss on Sophie's forehead. She smiled proudly. Aubrey then held Sophie and also cried in happiness.
Beca hugged her oldest daughter and kissed her forehead.
"So Char, do you think Sophie is a keeper?" she asked.
"Mommy, she was always a keeper!" Charlotte said.
Chloe chuckled.
"She was." Chloe agreed.
Charlotte smiled.
"Where are your parents?" Aubrey asked, rocking Sophie back and forth.
"My dad just said they're taking a cab from the hotel." Beca said. "They should be here in a few minutes."
Aubrey nodded and handed Sophie over to Stacie, who smiled down at the baby.
"Chloe, she has your ginger hair!" Stacie said.
Chloe chuckled.
"Yeah?" she said.
"Now we have a Mini Beca and a Mini Chloe!" Stacie said.
Beca chuckled.
Chloe smiled at her wife and Beca gave her a kiss. Charlotte giggled and clapped, then she snuggled closer to Chloe's side and kept her eyes on her sister.
Both Beca and Chloe were exhausted. But they were so incredibly happy. They wouldn't change their lives for anything. What more could they ask for?
