Infatuation Part Four

We check into the hospital and I'm so ready to meet our baby girl. They take us to a private room and I'm relieved, it might have been awkward if I had to share.

I lie down on the bed and Cameron sits facing me, he grabs my hand and leans in, pressing his lips against mine.

We're interrupted by a nurse who makes me change into a hospital gown and makes Cam change into scrubs. She gives him a blue cap to put over his hair and shoes.

"I look kinda funny, babe." He says and I giggle at him, he makes a funny face at me and makes me laugh harder.

"You know exactly how to calm me down, Cam." I tell him as I no longer feel nervous butterflies in my stomach. Someone comes in with a stretcher and I transfer over to that, they wheel me into the delivery room and Cameron follows behind me.

No one gives me a weird look and I figure they were probably told beforehand that I'm a male.

They help me onto the table and make me sit on the edge so the anesthesiologist can start the epidural on me. I rest my head on Cam's chest, they let him comfort me while the doctor pokes my spine.

I take in slow, deep breaths inhaling Cameron's soothing scent and pretend that I'm just at home with him. It's not too bad and before I lie back I sneak a kiss on Cameron's lips.

He stands next to my head as the raise a blue sheet so that I can't see what they're doing. The epidural must have kicked in because I can't feel anything below my waist.

"What are they doing?" I ask him and Cameron peeks past the sheet, I watch his face closely to see his initial reaction.

"They're just prepping your stomach, baby." He says and he grabs my hand and intertwines our fingers together. He raises our linked hands and presses a soft kiss on my hand.

"Soon we're going to meet Alexandra Elizabeth Dallas-Grier," he tells me and I get nervous butterflies again.

When he says my mother's name I get a little sad, I miss her so much and I wish she could be here with me.

When I came out my father kicked me out of the house and he forbade her from contacting me. I was lucky enough to have saved my own money from my YouTube career and I moved out here and began my new life. I think about them often, sometimes I'll call the house just to make sure she's okay but other than that I don't dare contact them.

Cameron rubs his thumb over my hand gently and grip his hand tightly.

"Did they start?" I ask him nervously, I can't feel anything and I guess it's a good thing.

Cameron pokes his head to the other side.

"Uh yeah they started," he tells me and he looks a little queasy.

"Babe, you're not going to pass out, are you?" I ask him and he looks back at me.

"No, I'm fine." He says and he swallows. I feel a lot of pressure and all of a sudden I hear the most wonderful sound in the world, the cry of my baby girl.

Cameron goes to the other side and I can't see it but they let him cut the cord. They wrap her in a warm blanket and hand her to Cameron. He walks back to me and puts her beautiful face close to mine.

I fall in love immediately and I press a soft kiss on the forehead of my crying baby girl. The doctors finish up and before I know it I'm back in my hospital room. Cameron helps sit me up, propped up on several pillows and then he picks Alexandra up from her basin and brings her over to me.

I cry as I get to hold her for the first time.

"She's beautiful," I whisper softly and Cameron sits next to me and stares at our baby.
