Ramon
The weeks went by quickly and I stayed at Celestia's side like a thorn on a rose. She got very irritable at every little thing and I tried to soothe her pain and frustration as best as I could. My poor baby. If I could take the pain away I would. At this very moment, I curse Adam and Eve.
"Ramon, I'm hungry again. Why am I so damn hungry? I'm gonna gain weight- and why the hell is my feet so big? No one told me that I was gonna go up an entire shoe size. I don't want to do this anymore I can't-"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl5WDRdUlav
"Hey, hey, you're fine. You're doing fine. Just a few more days. Here, come sit down and I'll make you some food. Whatever you want." I whisper as I hold her tightly.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4z2KQVbXib
She looks up at me and sighs.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ38zTrIrAJO
"Eggs. All I want is eggs. It's the only thing I can eat right now that won't make me throw up."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIUauCLbBj
"I'll make you a plate of scrambled eggs, does that sound good?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYsl1LBOMia
"Yes, it does, and thank you. No one asked you to put up with my moods."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeo6VXWRqnL
"I'm not putting up with anything darling. Your ready to give birth any day now, I don't blame you."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLY2mtt8Zx
I kiss her forehead and take her to the library to have her lay on the couch. Then I go back to the kitchen to start her eggs.
When I finish her eggs, I bring the plate over to her with a fork and she immediately digs into it.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCuhj25k36S
I chuckle slightly and make my way back to clean up.
"Are you finished, my love?" I ask as I walk back into the library.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFDuMDv0UXl
"Yeah, I am. I feel a little better." she smiles.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9O09O9Sg7h
I nod and take the plate from her to go and wash it. Mid washing, I hear a piercing scream of agony from Celestia and I drop everything, rushing to her in seconds.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yujBtBpPZ
"What's wrong?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpNrCqRikx2
"C-Contrac-Shit!" She yells out as she tries to get up from the couch.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0WwaA6ED4
"Sit, honey," I say trying to soothe her as I look at my watch, mentally counting the seconds.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGboN08c4b
After a minute had passed, I looked down at Celestia. Her eyes were closed, and she was breathing hard.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEdAGpP6QIu
"That shit hurt like a bitch." she groans. "Now my back hurts."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkaiMS82fR3
"Darling," I softly say as I move a few hair strands out of her face. "We could possibly be having our little girl today." I smile.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8LQhFWtkT
She looks up at me and smiles back before she shuts her eyes close again.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtJfpaqjbdD
"God, how nice would that be." she sighs. "I'm not one to tolerate pain much these days. I don't know how long I can take this anymore."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn6cYzA6FnI
"You're doing great, my love. I wish I could transfer the pain from you to me."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5WvrkGVzM
"I know, I know, I'm just saying that cause I'm exhausted."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjszBjTi2a9
"I know this is hard for you. I can't imagine doing all this." I sigh as I sit next to her. I twist her so that her back faces me and I start to rub at the tenseness in her back with my thumbs.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHcRFPXzeXu
"Mm, that feels good." she happily groans as she lays onto me. "I'm so tired I just want to sleep but for some reason, I can't."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHZoVJAoK9
"Well how about laying on me. Try to see if you can sleep. I'll be right here." I say soothingly combing my hand through her hair.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjlLyX9bLG
"I'll try but I know I won't be able to."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuR5NexeLK
"Just try," I whisper and tilt her back to my chest. She closes her eyes and I pull her hair back from her face. The sound of her breathing is calming but it doesn't last. She jerks up and moans in pain again.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpYO8wfmAU
"Another one?" says Madeline as she enters the room with my mother and Lilly in tow.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG5rVW8OUtN
"Y-ye-Ahh! H-how long h-has it been s-since the f-first?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIugqOmxqi
I check my watch. "Four minutes. We need to get you to the hospital."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHO3YSFedsW
"It hasn't been an hour yet."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp13DuI90bC
"Your contractions are four minutes apart. I want to make sure that you and our little girl are safe, well, and in good hands. We have to go, my love," I say as I take her hand.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFdaHgBRJLe
The second I place her hands in mine, I can feel her shaking.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIpulTiViSc
"You're shaking, Darling are you okay?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjn52B21v8J
She looks up at me and I see the slight quiver in her lips and her eyes turn glassy.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3F746EtAUk
"Hey, what's wrong? Baby talk to me." I say, pulling her in close.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcA2NrNbWgv
"I'm s-scared. I'm not ready. I can't do this Ramon."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLBK8u61hf4
"Listen, you are one of the strongest women I know. You're giving life to a human being. I'd be scared too if I was in your shoes. But I'm gonna be there with you every second, and we're gonna have a beautiful baby girl, and she's gonna look like you, and we can go on our trips to Disney, and we'll spoil our princess rotten." I whisper to her. She smiles and places her head on my chest and sighs.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMXP4LWH4z
"You got this Celestia, be that powerful bad bitch I know you are!" replies Lilly as she hugs her from the side.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1yvR7wDa3
"Alright, someone please grab my hospital bag; and let's have this baby."
__________
"Yes, we're in the hospital right now, she's about 5 centimeters dilated. About to get an epidural. I need you to make sure no one knows which hospital we're in. I'm not dealing with the paparazzi today. My number one priority is my fiancé and my baby. Yes. Thank you, James."
I walk back inside of the room and I see them placing the plastic on her back and then putting the needle up her back. I move to face her and take her hands in mine as she slightly winces.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgDluoohj9G
"You're doing great my Queen," I whisper to her.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPIpQf48iv
She nods, eyes still closed, and squeezes my hand tighter.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDyzj0HcyBK
"Hey sweetie, how are you doing?" her mother asks after placing herself next to me.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFz3ihr6V0C
Celestia opens her eyes and slightly smiles.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCAacgxyePj
"I'm just ready for this numbing medicine to kick in and this baby to come out."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFe4W0rA1ex
Her mom chuckles. "I hear ya," she replies before she sits on the seat in the corner. Entwining her fingers and placing them on her crossed knees.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyt4i7xyUR
"Babe?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvozKEBwM6
"Yes, my queen?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQbRwHcJDCM
"If I yell at you, I'm sorry."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7lx5oAdksg
"If that's what it takes to make you feel any better then yell at me all you want." I smile as I kiss her forehead.

"Alright, mama push, a few more. She's almost out."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLI8Dw1uM1
Celestia squeezes her eyes as her grip on my hand tightened to the point where I couldn't feel my fingers. She groans and grunts as she pushes and she moves herself to lean onto me, propping herself up more so that it caused her to be under less pressure.
Soon the cries of our little girl rings around the room.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYrz6piN3r
"You did it darling, she's here."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjLwoA0Wb5K
"F-finally. May I hold her?" she breathes out in a rush.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCRWyoGoeNK
The doctor nods and a nurse hands her over to Celestia.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZh3cmAeCC
"Hi, hello, aren't you just adorable,"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbvH1TFrSM9
"She is, isn't she, I told you she was gonna look like you," I say.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjM5lKf09iT
"Yeah, but look. She has your eyes, and n-nose..."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26rEBeiPZP
Celestia clutches her chest tightly.
The monitor next to her starts beeping.
The baby is being taken from her by a nurse.
The doctor rushes to her side to feel her pulse.
"What is going on?!" I ask as I look at the doctor.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡes7UTpm1j5
"She seems to be having a stroke."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPcyQ0sq5jq
"What? H-how?"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2JP7MQJUeD
"Sir, we need you to leave the room." says a nurse beside me.270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mmxaawIhv
"No. There's no way in hell I'm leaving her side."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVJttTFEHZb
"But sir were-"270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7p2uZTUHM5
"No. I don't want to hear it." I say a little too harshly. "Stay with me baby please, I can't lose you."270Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqi05XgoHyG
