You asked Liam to stay in the waiting room when it came time for the actual delivery process. You knew there'd be no way he'd be able to sit back and watch you be in that much pain. He broke down when you had to have a tooth pulled and you weren't even in pain, he just saw the blood and freaked out. So as the doctor announced your dilation he gave you a quick kiss and asked you once more if you were sure you didn't need him. As you assured him one last time that you'd be alright, he kissed your lips, forehead and then each cheek as he gave you one last look before telling you for the millionth time he loved you and he walked out the door. The actual birth went surprisingly quickly and smoothly. Of course there was a bit of pain involved, but maybe the past six hours of labor had you trained for the pain that was birth. After it was over the doctor clipped the umbilical cord before handing your newborn to the head nurse and removing his gloves to walk up to you and inform you that you were now the mother of a beautiful baby girl. He gave you a friendly pat on the shoulder as he congratulated you and made his way out to the waiting room to give Liam the news. Suddenly Liam came bursting into the room with the biggest smile you'd ever seen on anyone. His sight flicked from you over to the huge glass window in front of you that showed your newborn and nurses who were currently cleaning and measuring. "Wow." He muttered as he peered in the room where the action was going on. "Liam.." You whispered due to the weakness of your voice. "Oh! yea babe?" He said directing his attention back to you as he walked over, kissed your cheek and sat down in the chair next to your bed. "I know you wouldn't let me be in here but they told me you did really well. I'm so proud of you. I know I could've never done it." He laughed. You slightly chuckled, too weak to really do anything else. "Baby, I'm sorry I'm not talking, I'm just, just too weak to talk." You barely managed to mumble. "I know. It's ok, just rest ok?" He said softly. You nodded in response as your eyes slowly shut before quickly opening again as the sound of the nurse coming in with your baby woke you. "Have you decided what you want to name her?" The nurse quietly asked Liam as she handed him your daughter. "Um, well we've discussed a few different ones but- do you mind? If I ask?" He asked the nurse about asking you once more to confirm a name. "Not at all." She answered with a smile. "So what's it gonna be love? The first or second one we discussed?" He asked you quietly as you sat up in your bed and he gently handed you your child. You obeserved her for a minute trying to decide between the two names you had chosen. "Sherri Lynn." You meekly said aloud. Liam smiled, probably happy that you'd chosen the name he picked out. You smiled back as you signaled him to take your daughter, not that you didn't want to already hold her forever, it was just that you could feel your arms weakening and you didn't want to take any risks. After taking your daughter and walking back to the nurse you could hear him softly repeating the name and spelling it to the nurse as she complimented him on your choice of name.
