13th November 2019, in the delivery room

Hollie's P.O.V

'Ohhh myyy GODDDDDD' I screamed at the top of my lungs as I pushed. My face was scrunched up as I strained so much from the force and pain of the push. I held onto Daniel's hand so tight, squeezing all the blood out of it.

Contraction after contraction after contraction. Every minuet this baby was closer to being in the world the more pain I went through.

'It's alright baby, it's alright. Just breath and push.' Daniel said with encouragement as he sat next to me, allowing me to break his hand from the squeeze. I couldn't speak as I was pushing so hard, my face becoming red. I was trying not to get mad at Daniel and I promised myself I wouldn't before the labour started but I guess the pain was taking over.
'DANIEL JAMES SEAVEY! ITS ALL YOUR FAULT THAT THIS DEVIL IS INSIDE OF ME AND IS RIPPING MY BODY IN TWO!' I screamed in anger as I pushed.

'Don't worry, it's just the pain talking.' I heard the assistant mid wife faintly say to him. Then I heard a chuckle before another excruciating pain pierced my body again causing me to scream.

'One more push Mrs.Seavey' the midwife told me, encouraging the next push. I breathed in once more before giving all of my strength into this last and final push. I had never felt a pain so excruciating. Thankfully, after came a release of emotion and a weight was lifted off of my shoulders as I heard the first cry of Daniel's and I's newborn.

This precious, fragile human was now rested and laid on my chest. It was beautiful, despite being covered in blood, and it was mine. Cries flowed from this tiny baby's mouth as the umbilical cord was quickly cut off by Daniel himself. I looked over at Daniel through my teary eyes to see him looking down at our newborn baby and a tear in his own. It was the most perfect moment. Our perfect little family together at last.

~TIME SKIP~

Our newborn baby was now all cleaned up and dressed in a white baby grow. We knew the gender but decided to keep it a surprise, as well as the name, until the boys and my sister got to the hospital.

I was lying in the hospital bed with Daniel and our baby soundlessly sleeping in the chair next to me. They both looked so peaceful and happy. A wide smile grew on my face, taking in all of the details that I would want to remember later and in the future.
I looked at the clock that was directly in front of the bed. It was now 6:02am on 14th November. The baby was born at 3:56am this morning meaning I was in labour for about 6 and a half hours - which was pretty quick.

I must have fallen to sleep because the next thing I knew I heard faint singing and darkness. I opened my eyes and turned over to face the window. Standing by the window with a small baby in his hands was Dani, softly singing a lullaby. I sat up and looked at the clock in front of me, it read 9:59am.

'Ah mummy's awake baby' Daniel whispered, it echoing throughout the room, re-catching my attention. A toothless grin appeared on my face causing Daniel to form the same.

'Hey babe' I said to Daniel giving him a peck on the lips. 'Hey beautiful' I softly said giving the baby a kiss on the forehead.

'I love you both'
'I love you too'

About an hour went past of just talking and looking after the baby. It was now 11:34am and visiting hours started at 11:30am so the boys and my sister should be here soon.

Knock knock

'Come on in' Daniel told the person at the door. In walked Lily and Zach holding hands then Jack, Corbyn and Jonah. 'Hi' Lily softly said with the biggest smile as she came over to the bed. She gave me a big hug before congratulating me. All of the boys came and congratulated me too before walking over to Daniel and congratulating him. They all said hello to the baby that was now in Lily's arms.

After a minuet or two of just looking at the baby and slight conversation Lily suddenly spoke. 'Is it a girl or boy?' A smile grew on mine and Daniel's faces.

'Actually before we find out we have a surprise' Jonah said making me confused . I looked confusingly at Jonah and then to Daniel who shrugged not know the surprise either.

Jonah looked over to the door and in came Christina and Adalyn. 'OMG!!!' I exclaimed as they both ran over to me, giving me a long and strong hug. 'What are you guys doing here?!' I asked still shocked.

'We are here to see you and the baby of course!' Christina told me before rushing over to Lily who had the baby in her arms. 'So is it boy or girl? Oh and what's his or hers name?!' Adalyn asked no one in specific as she thought we would of told them.

'Well they were just going to tell us when you two walked in' Zach said.

Daniel walked over from the chair and sat on the bed next to me with our baby in his arms.
We looked at each other with massive smiles and then to the rest of the room that had beady eyes wanting to know the sex and name of our baby.

'It's a.....'
