(18 months Later...)

(Santana's POV)

"Push baby...push...you can do this. Just a few more pushes" I am stood at Britt's bedside, holding her hand and guiding her through our practiced breathing techniques as she brings our baby boy into the world. "Santana...I can't do IIIIIITTTTTTTT" she lets out one almighty scream, crushing every bone in my hand in the process. "Yes, yes you can do it! Our son is almost here. In just a few moments we will be holding our beautiful baby boy." Britt throws her head back in exhaustion, sweat dripping down her face. "Santana, can't you push for me" all I do is laugh. "No baby, I can't push for you. You know if there was some magical way I would, but I can't" she lets out a throaty groan showing her disappointment in my answer. "Come on honey, just one last big push and your baby will be here" the midwife says encouraging Britt to continue, but in her stubborn ways she doesn't listen. "Brittany, sweetie come on. This baby has got to get out."

"Baby, look..look at me" I pull Britt forward so she's looking at me square in the face. "You have got this, you are the strongest person I know. We have overcome so much together okay, but we are here, we survived it all. And now you just gotta get us over the line with this last stretch okay? You can do this babe" I plant a long sweet kiss on her forehead. "Brittany, you really gotta start pushing for me okay?" Britt adjusts her body, gathering up energy for one last push. "After 3 okay babe. 1...2...3" Britt bursts the eardrums of everyone stood in the room with one last almighty push. "Here he is!!!" The midwife lifts up this little crying squidgy thing, that's covered in all sorts of gunk. But he's our little squidgy thing covered in gunk and we love him in copious amounts already.

"Mrs Lopez, you want to cut the umbilical chord?" the nurse hands me the scissors as I gently cut the chord before our son is taken away to be cleaned up. "We did it babe" Britt says through sheer exhaustion. "No, you did it." We connect our lips for a passionate kiss. "Would you like to hold your son?" The nurse hands Brittany our baby as she cradles him tight to her chest. "He has your nose" Britt points out. "Look at these long arms though, bet he's going to be a dancer just like his mommy" Santana runs her fingers the length of the baby's arm.

About an hour has passed and all we have done is stare at this beautiful little boy. "You guys got a name yet?" The nurse asks us as she walks in with a bottle of formula. "Oh no, we are breastfeeding" Britt cuts in before the nurse warms up the formula. "No, we don't have a name yet." Santana says. "Well no rush, you have a month to decide and register. But in other news, the birth was smooth and both mom and baby are healthy so you guys can leave in a couple of hours if you like?" The nurse explains as she checks over the charts.

We are on our way home. We had the penthouse completely revamped after the arson attacks, you wouldn't think we were in the same place. Britt has fallen asleep in the back of the car with our son. The familiar sounds from the NYC streets filling my ears, I decide to turn on the radio as I drive over the Manhattan Bridge, the sun about the kiss the horizon, illuminating the city in a gorgeous orange glow.
