I smiled staring at the reflection with my big round belly. I'm so nervous about being a mother I don't know where to start. Michael stayed home today because the baby is supposed to be due any day now. I looked at the book of baby names I should give to either my son or daughter.  Maybe I should let Michael pick out the boy name and I'll pick out the girl name. No I should I'm the mother. If he doesn't like the names then he could switch it. I'll name my daughter Mia and then my son Angel. "Michael?" He looked up at me with a huge smile. "Hello future mother, what's going on?" He moves over to let me sit next to him. "Listen if we get a boy I think his name will be Angel and if it's a girl we can name our daughter Mia." While rubbing my tummy. "Angel? That's not a guys name lets name him Joseph it sounds more masculine." I was shocked at Michael's comment. "That's not a good enough opinion to change the name, I want his name to be Angel and that's final." Not a chance would Michael want a girly name like that. "No it's going to be Joseph! Angel would be a good name for a girl but not for a son of mine!" You hear that?" He gets close to my stomach. "Don't bring my son or daughter into this conversation it's between us parents." I said calmly. "The hell with it I won't argue but his name will be Joseph." We looked at each other angrily for a moment. "Ugh." Holding my stomach. "What's wrong baby?" Michael looked concerned. "It was just the babies kick." Michael rubbed my back. "Maybe your son kicked you because he want the name Joseph and not Angel." Michael says with pride. "Fuck the names right now not feeling good." I walked to the bathroom holding my stomach. My hair was a little messy. I looked down at the toilet to see that my water has broke and a little bit of blood came out. I felt pressure going against my womanhood the pain was mild. "Michael!" I screamed. "Yes baby?" His eyes widened. "Oh I'll get you to the hospital right away." Michael got my coat and put it around me guiding me to the front seat of the car. "Babe just hold on." Michael drove a little fast I heard sirens going off from the police car. "Michael slow down." I groaned we pulled over. "Officer please listen I'm sorry for speeding but my girlfriend is having a baby and we need to get to the hospital fast!" He looked through the window of the car. "Alright I'll take her to the hospital and you take your time." The officer wrote him a ticket. "But she's in labor I can't leave her by herself." The officer puts  me in the car. "Don't worry I got this." The sirens cuts back on and Michael follows the police car to the hospital. "Quick this woman is in labor!" The officer commanded. "I'll get help right away." They put me in a wheel chair. "Are you the husband?" The nurse asked. "No the husband is on the way I had to rush her here." Michael came in running into the hospital panting catching up to the officer. "Where is my girlfriend?! I need to be there for her." Michael went to the birth room where I was. "Baby I'm right here hold my hand if you need to princess." Michael took my hand. "Sir congrats on your baby." The doctor says as he has his face towards the opened legs of the laboring mother. "Ok Ms. Jackson we want you to push that's the only way you'll get the baby out ok?" I shook my head from nervousness. "Come on princess you can do it, just push ok?" He said stroking my hair to calm me down. "Michael it hurts." I whimper feeling the contractions. "I know but when the baby is here the pain will go away." I made the first push and sweat came to my for head I looked at Michael as a distraction. "Good baby keep pushing." I squeezed his hands a little hard. I was breathing hard because of pushing. "Ms. Jackson I see the head of your child just a little bit." I kept pushing so that the process could be faster. "Ms. Jackson I think we have a problem your baby still hasn't come out we still I think we have to do a see section on you." I knew what that was I tried to fight the doctors off of me. "No!" I cried even harder, Michael follows the cart holding my hand as they rush me to the emergency birthing room. "Mr. Jackson your going to have to wait outside." Michael looked at me worried. "I'll be ok Michael." Michael kissed my forehead before I went back into the room. Michael waited as the hours went by. "Mr. Jackson you can come in now." Michael saw me carrying the baby in my arms caressing It and kissing it. "So what is it princess?" I gave Michael the baby. "It's a boy it's going to be named Angel." Michael kissed my lips. "Ok hi Angel welcome to the world we brought you in." The baby started to cry I mean he's not used to people he was just born. "It's ok it's just daddy, I can't wait until you come home." The doctor came to take him away so he can be cleaned up and checked on his health. While we were waiting we signed some birth certificates and some other paper work. "Your baby is healthy you can bring your baby boy home today." Michael jumped with joy I had Angel in my arms as we got in the car. "I love you princess." Giving me a deep kiss. "I love you too Michael." I smiled looking down at the baby we made. "I also love you too Angel." Giving him a kiss as well, since we didn't have a crib for Angel yes we let him sleep in between me and Michael's bed just him in the middle of us wrapped up in his little hospital blanket. We took a family picture went to sleep.
