The 38th week
I was looking at the watch on the wall counting the minutes. Yes, I've started having contractions. But I haven't said a word. I don't want Marco to worry. "Shall we go to bed?" Marco asked turning his head in my direction. "Yes." I said and he stood up. He giggled when I offered my hand to him. After him helping me to stand up, I put my hand on my bump. "Fine?" Marco asked with concerned look and I nodded. "Yes. Let's go." I syaid walking to our bedroom. Marco took off his sweatpants and T-shirt. "You're sleeping in this?" he asked pointing on my red sweatpants and white T-shirt. "Yes. I don't feel like changing my clothes." I snapped. I hate snapping like this, but this is the only way how to make him stop asking questions. I know that I should tell him that it's started about an hour ago, but I don't want to. He'd be too worried. "Love you." Marco said and covered me with the duvet. "Me too." I said and he kissed my forehead. This is gonna be a long looong night.

The 39th week
I sat down taking deep breaths. Why can't the freaking water break?! Why?! "Em?" Marco asked groggily and I took another deep breath. "Em! W-what is g-going on?" he asked sitting down and switching the light on. "Now?" he asked already standing up. "No, no. Stay." I said pulling him back to bed. "You...you look like it..." he started, but I cut him off. "Marco. My water hasn't broken. Nothing is happening." I said and he sighed. "Okay. Fine. Breath." he said and I chuckled lightly. "Are you trying to make me feel better or make yourself feel better?" I asked. "I'll bring you water to drink." he said standing up. Shit. I've got enough of water right now. "I don't need it." I mumbled standing up. I looked on the wet duvet and started shaking. "Here we go." I said and Marco rubbed his face. "O-okay. Fine. We'll do this." he said coming closer taking my leggins on the way here. "Let's change." he said. I sat down carefully taking off my sweatpants when the pain hit me. "Aargh." I screamed and Marco took my hand. "Breath baby, breath." he said and I nodded while he helped me putting the leggins on. "Careful." Marco said while helping me stand up. He took my bag and kissed my cheek. "We'll do this. Together." he said.
"Can't you drive a bit faster?!" I yelled rubbing my bump. "Emma, this is not F1. I'm doing what I can." he said and I took a deep breath. "Marco! It hurts!" I screamed in pain and he put his hand on my thigh. "Don't touch me!" I exclaimed pushing his hand away. "Move this stupidly big car of yours and get me to the hospital!" I yelled and almost started crying. "Baby wait. Wait." I whimpered rubbing my belly. "Baby, breath. Breath." Marco said and I clenched my jaw. "You wouldn't have to tell me to 'calm down' and 'breath' if you had never done this to me!" I exclaimed and looked at him. "You know what?! If you want another baby, carry it yourself!" I exclaimed and looked out of the window. I am such a big idiot! "I'm sorry! But it hurts!" I said and he nodded. "It's fine. Okay. Keep calm and imagine that we're gonna see her in a while." he said and I nodded biting my lip in pain.
.....
Hearing the cries, I smiled while breathing heavily. "You made it." Marco whispered and kissed my cheek. "You made it baby." he repeated and I chuckled tiredly. "We made it." I said and he pushed some hair off my sweaty forehead. "Here is your daughter." the nurse said and gave me our little baby. "Hello." I said and kissed her forehead. "Welcome Olivia." Marco said and I smiled. "Our little Olivia Reus." I said. Marco had kissed her forehead before looking at me. "You made me so proud and happy. Thank you so much Emma." he said and pecked my lips.
Opening my eyes, I felt a squeeze on my hand. "Hi mommy." Marco said and kissed my forehead. "Where's Liv?" I asked and he chuckled lightly. "I'll get the nurse to bring her." he had said before walking out of the room. "Good morning." Marco whispered carrying our baby. "My baby." I said and Marco placed her in my arms. "Hello princess." I said kissing her cheek. She whimpered and I giggled. "She probably is hungry." I said and Marco smiled. I feeding her, Marco's phone made a sound. "Your parents are on their way." he said and I smiled. "Tell them to drive carefully." I said and he nodded. "My parents will come this afternoon if you don't mind." Marco said and I shook my head lightly. "I'm more than proud to show her to everybody." I said and Marco giggled. "Well, I'm more than proud to show you both to everybody." he said and I smiled. "I love you Marco." I said and he pecked my lips. "I love you too mommy." he said and I chuckled.
"Finally." Marco said after saying goodbye to his parents. My parents are at our flat taking a nap after the way from Berlin. "Olivia. Hello." I whispered caressing her cheek. "I can't wait to have you at home babies." Marco said and sat down next to me. "Liv. We love you so much." he whispered kissing her forehead gently. "I love you Em. And there are no words describing how proud and thankful I am." Marco said and I smiled. "I love you too." I said and he kissed my cheek. "The most beautiful Christmas Eve is ahead." Marco said and I giggled. "Our baby princess with us." I whispered and he nodded. "We're a family. A lovely family." he said and wrapped his arm around my shoulder. We are a happy family. And I can't be more proud.
They finally welcomed their daughter - Olivia! What do you think about the name? Because I love it!
