After changing into another gown and being prepped up for the surgery, Lillian was told to get on another bed so they could do take her to the room where the surgery will be. She had to admit, she was so nervous. She never been cut open and had surgery before and today, soon, she was going to meet her son. Ryan also looked nervous as he changed into one of those blue gowns and put those caps on and walked next to her side, holding her hand.

They went into a pretty big room and they put an IV in her arm, put a catheter in her, and gave her regional anesthesia cause she wanted to be awake to see Zane after they get him out. Lillian tried to control her nerves as they set things up like putting the curtain over her so she would see any of the surgery part and while they were setting up, a part of her body began to feel numb and she didn't feel much pain anymore. She closed her eyes and took deep breaths.

Ryan was next to her, holding her hand. She looked him and he gave her a smile, but she could see he was nervous. "Ready?", she asked him.

He hesitated, but nodded, "Yeah, I am. Everything going to be just fine.".

"I hope.", she said.

A moment later, Doctor Huston spoke, "Okay, ready Lillian? You wont feel no type of pain or anything, just a bit of pressure and some pulling and tugging. It's also important not to tense up or anything but to relax, this should only take about five minutes.".

Lillian bit her bottom lips, "Yeah, I'm fine.".

She gave Ryan a quick squeezed before letting her body relax. They turned off the lights and only light in the room from the lamp above her stomach. Like Doctor Huston said, she didn't feel any pain, but the tugging and pulling was weird. She dealt with it though and let body relax as they did their work. She turned her head to Ryan and he brushed her hair back.

Lillian felt some pressure and forced herself to stay calm.

"Okay, he's coming!", Doctor Huston said and Lillian couldn't help but smile excitedly. "Got the cord from around his neck.".

A moment later, she heard the sound of crying and Ryan and Lillian both looked at each other, smiling as her eyes stung up.

"Hold on one second.", Doctor Huston said and Lillian heard the sound of clamping of scissors. Lillian's eyes tears up and a second later, she saw her baby as a nurse held him next to her. Lillian cried out in laughter and she reached her free hand up, touching his face as he cried and it made her cry. Zane grabbed one of her fingers and his crying slowed down a little, only making her cry more.

"He's so perfect.", she said as Ryan leaned over her a little to look at Zane and she noticed his eyes were also wet.

"He is.", Ryan said and he kissed her. "Your so brave Lil.".

They took Zane away to go clean him off and Ryan cut off the umbilical cord that was left.

"Six pounds, three ounces.", the nurse said. "Well, if he did make it to his due date, he would have been one hard baby to push out.".

Ryan came back over with Zane in his arms who was now wrapped up in a blanket and he placed him right next to Lillian so she looked at him without all the slim and blood as the doctor began stitching her back up. Lillian brought her hand back up and Zane quickly grabbed her fingers as he cried.

She couldn't help but cry more. When they say having a child is a miracle, they're right. It was like instance love between them to and she couldn't believe she thought about giving him up. If she did go with that plan, she isn't sure she could anymore. It would have just broken her heart.

One nurse came up to them, "What are you going to name him?".

"Zane Gabriel Monroe-Miller.", she said smiling, not looking away from her son.
