Book 2: The Search For Warnerstock

Newborn

After I made it to the clinic, I barged into the delivery room. "Aqua!"

"W-Wakko!" Aqua cried out in pain. "Ahh!"

"It's okay. I'm here!" I went by her side and held her hand.

"I'm scared..." she started to cry in fear and pain.

"Sis!" Rachel barged in. "How far along Doctor?"

"Just nearly 1 centimeter left." the doctor told her.

"Wakko, you're so close to being a dad. Maybe you should wait outside until the baby's born. You haven't seen a baby being born yet." she told me.

"But my baby. Both of them." I grew worried.

"Wakko, I'll be okay. The doctors are here for me. And I don't want you to faint while I'm giving birth to our baby girl." Aqua panted. "I'll need you awake when she sees you, her only father."

I looked at her all worried for her health. I know she was in pain and I couldn't do anything. I sighed and then looked at her. "Okay. But I'll be the first one to barge in here."

"Okay sweetheart." she kissed my hand. "I love you."

"I love you too babe. Continue your breathing."

"I-I will." she nodded.

I came out of the delivery room and sat in the waiting room with the others.

"Why aren't you in there with her baby bro?" Yakko asked me.

"She wants me awake and she didn't want me to see her like... that. She wants me awake so I can see my baby that way."

"You should go in there! And support her when she needs you." Carrie insisted. "You're not a kid toon anymore. You're a few hours into fatherhood."

I realized that Carrie was right. I couldn't sit here and wait. So I stood up and went back into the delivery room. But what I saw in there was... it was too much for me. I got dizzy and the next thing I knew, I saw darkness.

(A few hours later...)

"Wakko wake up!" Carrie called out to me.

"Mmm..." I slowly started to open my eyes and I was seeing stars. "Wha... what happened?"

"You passed out in the delivery room." Rachel said.

"That's rough bro." Yakko patted my back.

I shook my head. "Hehe, guess Aqua knew what she was talking about." I chuckled nervously. I gasped as I mentioned her. "Is she okay?!"

The nurse came in time. "Congratulations! It's a baby girl!"

"Hooray! Yay!" all of us cheered.

"Can I see her?" I asked the nurse.

"Yes you may." she nodded. "You're the father?"

"Yes I am." I nodded back.

"How's the baby?" Dot asked.

"She's perfectly healthy. 8 pounds, 6 ounces." The doctor said as he came out. "Your girlfriend is ready to see you."

I was excited to meet my daughter. "I'll see you inside guys."

Rachel nodded. "I have something to do at the moment. Take care of her while I'm gone." she said as she gave Yakko and Rakko her kisses and left the scene.

"I will." I rushed in with excitement. As I opened the door into the room I heard the most beautiful sound my ears were wiggling too. They we're wiggling to a baby's cooing. Which was my baby's cooing. I opened the curtain to see Aqua there, holding our little bundle of joy.
