Forever and always

Chapter sixty-six

I was now holding both babies in my arms while they closed up Olivia, I sat down next to her again. She felt the babies and it was very emotional to witness my beautiful family.

When Olivia was closed up we got rolled back to our room, the babies were laying in the hospital bassinets.

The doctor helped Olivia sit up in the bed, and then I handed over our babies to her. When the doctors left after a little checkup, we were now alone. I looked at Olivia sitting there with our kids, and I just fell more in love with her than ever, this is really my life I'm the luckiest man on the planet.

"They're perfect love" I smiled as I was sitting next to her on the most uncomfortable chair, but I didn't mind. "They really are, I really love you so much. I can't believe this is our life now" she said and looked at me. "Me either, but I already wouldn't trade it for anything. I love you so much" I said and gave her a kiss. "And we also love you two very much, baby M and E" I said and looked at our babies. "So we're sure about the names now right?" She asked. "A hundred percent sure," I answered.

We were sitting there for about fifteen minutes just the four of us, we were holding one baby each. Before I walked out to our parents who were waiting outside, and had been for a long time now..

I stepped out of the room and walked to the waiting area, my mom and Jos were sitting there talking over a cup of coffee, I loved how well they get along. "Hey, would you like to meet your grand babies?" I asked and approached them. They both lit up, and smiled. "I would love to" Jos smiled. "Definitely" my mom said and then they followed me to the room. We walked inside and they both smiled big, I haven't seen any of them smile as big before. It was so cute. They both hugged me and Olivia and then it was time for them to meet our babies.

"Mom this is our son" I smiled and handed him our son. "Aw he's gorgeous, he looks so much like you" she said and almost shed a tear. "And Jos this is our daughter" I said handing over our daughter to him. "Wow, she's perfect!. She doesn't look like you sweetheart, she also looks like Charles" he said and looked at Oli. "That is so unfair, I carried them for nine whole months and then they come out not looking like me at all" she laughed. "Well I'm sorry, the Leclerc genes must be very strong" I laughed. "It's fine, they're so beautiful. And I love that they look like you, it's almost like I have three of you now" she laughed. "That sounds exhausting" my mom laughed and Jos agreed. "Hey!I'm not that bad" I laughed.. - After holding one each, our parents switched so now my mom held our daughter, and our Jos held our son. They were so in love with them, and my heart was almost melting.

Olivia's pov:

I was just sitting in the hospital bed looking around the room. My boyfriend standing next to me holding my hand, my dad holding our son and my wonderful mother-in-law holding our daughter. I can't believe I'm someone's mother now, my life has just changed forever and I couldn't be happier.

"So dad, Pascale, do you wanna hear their names now?" I asked. "Yeah! Please tell us" Pascale said, and dad agreed. "Our daughters name is Elena Joselia Lucia Leclerc" I smiled. "Aw, Elena after grandma?" Dad asked. "Yeah, we loved the name and we wanted to honor her by calling her Elena" Charles smiled. "That's beautiful you guys" Pascale smiled. "Yeah, and our sons name is Matheo Hèrve Jules Leclerc" Charles smiled, and his mother smiled big. "Aw, that's beautiful. Your dad would be so honored" she smiled. "He would, yeah" Charles said.. "both names are perfect!" Dad smiled brightly.

We chose Elena because it's my late grandmothers name, Joselia because we wanted to honor my dad who's my biggest supporter and the first three letters in Joselia is like "Jos", and lastly we chose Lucia because we just fell in love with the name..

We chose Matheo because both of us have always loved the name and the meaning behind is "gift of god" which is beautiful. Then we obviously chose Hèrve because of Charles's father who meant everything to him. And lastly we chose Jules because we wanted to honor one of Charles biggest supporters and his godfather Jules Bianchi. And then of course we chose Leclerc and not Verstappen because I'm not gonna be a Verstappen for much longer, so soon the four of us are Leclercs. And I love it!

My dad and Pascale stayed here for a while, but after being here for a few hours they left. It was dinner time and we just ordered something from the hospital menu card. While we waited we decided to call Max. He answered right away. "Hey sis, how are you?" Max asked as he picked up the phone. "Hey Max, I'm great! Wanna see something?" I asked and then pressed the FaceTime button. "Sure" he said and then we could see him, I filmed Elena and Matheo and by the look on his face he was shocked. "What! When did that happen!! Congratulations!" He said and smiled big. "Earlier today" I smiled. "They're beautiful, when can I visit?" He asked, obviously quite excited. "As soon as you want too" I smiled. "Can I come by in an hour?" He asked and we of course agreed it would be fine. We also called Arthur and Lorenzo who also decided to come by today!

I called Vic who was so surprised, and she decided to book a flight early next week for her, Tom and the boys, so they could meet Elena and Matheo..

Time flew by and Max, Kelly, Lorenzo and Arthur had just seen them and they were totally in love, they also loved their names.

When they left I called Daniel and Charles called Pierre, to tell them that their goddaughter and godson had arrived. Both of them were very happy. Pierre would come by next week since he's in Italy right now. And Daniel would come by possibly around the week after next week, since he's in Australia visiting his family. But he's so excited, and I'm also very excited to show my kids to my best friend!

Elena and Matheo are very easy, considering they're only a few hours old. They're eating like they should, they're crying as they should and they were just pure perfection!

I fell asleep late after a long day, I was still in pain after the surgery but I didn't care since I got two miracles out of it. Charles got a bed next to mine and slept there, Matheo and Elena were also sleeping, but only woke up a few times to eat.

Back to Charles pov:

The next day I woke up since Elena was crying, so I took her up from the little hospital bassinet and held her in my arms. I walked around the room with her which made her calm down, I talked to her even though she doesn't understand a word I'm saying, it's just natural.

Olivia woke up and was in a lot of pain, so I called a doctor who came in to take a look at her scar and her vitals. It didn't look like there was infection in it and her vitals looked normal, so she just got something for the pain, and I guess pain is very normal after what she's been through.

A few hours went by, we were just enjoying the time here in this little baby bubble. But suddenly Olivia started to feel worse again, so once again I called the doctor, and they started to examine her. She got an ultrasound which showed she had some internal bleeding in her abdomen..

"Olivia, you have some internal bleeding. And we gotta take you to surgery immediately!" The doctor said, but she was fading away a bit. "What's happening? Why isn't she responding?" I asked, my heart was racing like crazy. "It's because of the bleeding, it's possibly a complication from the C-section. We gotta take her away right now or else it will get worse" he said and tried to keep Olivia awake. "No, no, no please let her be safe!" I said as she got driven away in her bed. I was scared, really scared. I was standing alone in a big hospital room, with my two newborn babies not knowing what would happen to their mother..
