“I know babe I know, it’ll be over soon and we’ll have a little baby.” Rick said rubbing her hand,
ONE AND A HALF HOURS LATER.
“Come on Kate just a few more pushes.” The midwife instructed,
“It Hurts!” Kate screamed,
“Only a few more pushes and it’s all over.” Rick said,
“Shut up Rick! You’re not the one pushing a baby out of your private parts!” Kate snapped,
“I know I’m sorry, but just a few more pushes and its fine.” Rick said calmly,
“Ok last push Kate and you’re done” The midwife said,
Kate gave one last final push and then the room was filled with the cries of a baby.
“Congrats, it’s a baby boy.” The midwife said smiling.
She wrapped their little baby boy up in a blanket after cleaning him down, and she handed him to Kate.
“He’s beautiful.” Kate whispered holding their little baby.
“Charlie Jim Beckett Castle.” Rick said smiling,
“He’s perfect.” Kate said smiling,
“Mrs. Castle, I have to run some tests on Charlie to make sure everything is ok, and then he’ll be back to you.” The midwife said taking Charlie away from them.
“It’s ok Babe, he’ll be back in a minute.” Rick said reassuring Kate.
“I think we should go and get Alexis.” Kate muttered,
Alexis waited outside while Kate was in labour, it wasn’t something that Kate wanted Alexis to see.
“I’ll go get her now.” Rick said walking out into the corridor,
A minute later Rick came in followed by Alexis,
“Where’s the baby?” Alexis asked the second she walked in,
“There just running some tests to make sure he’s ok then he’ll be back.” Rick said sitting on the side of the bed beside Kate,
“What’s my little brother’s name then?” Alexis asked leaning against the wall,
“Charlie Jim Beckett Castle.” Kate said proudly,
“I like it.” Alexis said.
“Now then,” The midwife said walking in carrying Charlie, “Everything seems to be fine with him, just stay for a few more hours then you guys can go home!” She handed the baby to Rick then left the room.
“Hess so adorable.” Alexis said looking at him,
“I think he’s hungry.” Rick said as Charlie began to cry,
Rick pasted Charlie over to Kate,
“I’ll go and get some coffee.” Alexis said leaving the room.
“Does she seem a bit off to you?” Rick asked, as Kate began feeding Charlie,
“Yeah, she does, I’ll talk to her later on.” Kate said,
“Thanks, she doesn’t come to me anymore,” Rick said sadly,
“Well she is grown up now.”
“I know, sometime I just wish I could go back to when she was a little girl.”
“Well we have Charlie now.” Kate stated,
