Several months later

Cheryl woke with a cry of pain, her hand going to her stomach.

Toni was fast asleep at her side.

"Toni!" Cheryl cries out in even more pain.

Toni sat bolt up right on the bed, panting heavily. "What? What's happening?"

"Baby, coming." The redhead cries out.

"We should get to the hospital." Toni said.

Nodding her head, Cheryl slowly gets out of bed. "Get Betty up, she has to watch JJ."

Toni nodded, she got up out of the bed and raced out of the room.

Betty was asleep, her head on Jughead's chest.

"Betty!" Toni said in a panicked voice.

Jumping awake, the blonde sits up, followed by Jughead. "What's wrong?" she asked worriedly.

"Cheryl is in labour, we have to go to the hospital, you have to watch Jeremiah." She said in a rush.

"Okay, we've got him. Go." Jughead said calmly.

Toni nodded, running from the room without a word.

****

Cheryl was sound asleep in the hospital bed while Toni held their newborn daughter. Once again, the baby had Toni's complexion but Cheryl's hair.

Toni couldn't wipe the stupidly happy grin off of her face.

The baby shifts in her arms and releases a tiny yawn.

Toni's heart swelled three sizes in her chest with love for the tiny baby in her arms.

Soft brown eyes stare up at her, the baby cooing softly before drifting off to sleep.

Toni rocked the little girl gently.

A soft sigh from the hospital bed catches her attention as Cheryl begins to wake up.

Toni looked up when she heard Cheryl move on the bed.

"Hmm, hi." Cheryl gets out through a yawn.

"Hi." Toni smiled.

Putting her bed into a sitting position, Cheryl pats the spot beside her.

Toni got up, crossed the room and sat down on the bed.

"She's perfect. What should we name her?" Cheryl asks softly.

Toni was silent for a long while, thinking. "Hope."

"I like that, Hope Alice Topaz." Cheryl says after a moment.

Toni smiled. "Perfect."

Hope shifts in her sleep and curls into Toni more.

"I love you and I love her." Toni said. "I can't wait for Jeremiah to meet her."

Cheryl smiles softly. "We love you too."

Toni smiled softly.
