"Mami, what's going on? Why are you so stressed?" Edwin mumbles, hugging me from behind and rubbing my swollen stomach. "Why else would I be stressed? Yadira wouldn't stop kicking for an hour" I roll my eyes, he hums against my neck and continues rubbing my belly, trying to relax me.

"I thought you were with Brandon at the studio, what are you doing here?" I ask as Edwin helps me sit on the couch slowly, "Zion called me, told me you were about to scream the house down" he answers, chuckling. I pout in response "I told him to get me a fruit bowl, he left the house and came back empty-handed, WITHOUT my fruits, telling me some bullshit about stores being closed."

Zion enters the room at that exact moment and hears what I said. "IT WAS 6 IN THE MORNING, crazy" he throws his hands up in the air and leaves the room after staring at me incredulously. I glare at this figure leaving the room.

"So you yelled at him?" Edwin stifles a laugh but I catch it, narrowing my eyes at him. "Well, I'm sorry that your daughter decided to kick up a storm in my womb" he raises an eyebrow at my statement, "really? She's just my daughter now?"

I nod "yup, both of you have the same personality. You both like annoying me, it's too early for this 'like father like daughter' thing." Edwin lets out full blown laughter at my reply, I cross my arms and look away from him, feigning anger.

"Okay, okay. Baby, I'm sorry. C'mon, look at me" I continue to ignore him and try to reach for the remote control, it's on the centre table in front of me. I try to get up on my own but Yadira kicks and I groan, placing a hand on my stomach.

"Baby, are you okay?" Edwin rushes out, clutching the remote control and grabbing my hand. I squeeze his hand "I'm fine, I'm fine" I reassure him, "Yadira just kicked a little too hard."

He continues to look at me worriedly and I almost let out an 'aww' at how cute he's being. "Babe, I swear I'm-" I cut myself off with a scream then I feel something drip on my thigh, my eyes go wide as Edwin continuously asks me what's going on.

I turn to him, "I think I'm going into labour, Ed." His eyes go wide "shit, shit, shit. Uh, what do we-" he runs out of the room before completing his sentence. "EDWIN JOEL, IF YOU DON'T GET BACK HERE NOW-" I yell, contractions start coming and I try to remember the breathing exercises my doctor taught me.

"Breathing exercises aren't working, dang" I whimper, gripping the couch harder. Edwin runs back in with Zion who's carrying the bag we prepared for my delivery, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I had to get the baby bag and-"

I cut him off, growling "get me to the hospital right. Now." Zion and Edwin help stand up, I grip both of their hands tightly. "YEAH, LET'S GO DELIVER THIS BABY" Zion screams as we try to rush to the car.

"Breathe, just breathe" the nurse beside me repeats. "Don't you think I'm doing that?!" I snap, rolling my eyes and turning away from her to look at Edwin. "Where's Austin, Brandon and Nick? I want them to be here, Ed" I whimper as another contraction passes through me.

"I know, baby, I know, they're on their way, I promise" he kisses my hand. "Eddie? I'm scared, don't leave please" I whisper and his worried expression drops as he bends down to look me in the eye. "Babygirl, I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere, y/n. I promise" he presses a kiss to my forehead and I close my eyes at the feel of it but get snapped out of it when a contraction goes through me.

"One more push, y/n" the doctor instructs. "You're almost there, baby" Edwin encourages me as I squeeze his hand tightly as I yell in pain and finally push out my daughter. The sound of her cry fills the room and I start to cry happy tears when the nurse hands her to me after cleaning her up.

Edwin takes her from me when I start to fall asleep due to losing most of my energy.

When I open my eyes, Edwin is next to me holding our daughter. He's looking at her with so much love and adoration, it's such a beautiful sight to wake up to. Edwin looks up and catches my eye, he stands up and sits on the hospital bed.

He slowly gives me Yadira, I look at her in awe. She's so small and so precious, Edwin presses a lingering kiss to my forehead "I'm so proud of you, mi amor."

The door bursts open and 4 boys run in, I roll my eyes at their disorderliness. Edwin shushes them and points to Yadira who just woke up, probably because the boys were so loud. "Who wants to carry her first?" Edwin asks and Zion pushes the other boys away, "um excuse me, I was here before any one of them and besides I'm gonna be her favourite uncle anyway."

Edwin looks at me to ask if Zion can carry her, I nod and carefully hand her to Zion. "Hi Yadira, it's your favourite uncle Zion" he coos and she yawns, "okay, she is the cutest tiny person I have ever seen." He states.

"Lemme carry her now" Nick whines but Zion turns away from him "Nope, we don't want frat boy Nick to hold you now do we?" he looks at Yadira.

I laugh at their behaviour and very soon, all the boys have held Yadira. She's back in my arms by the time we get home, I'm putting her down in her crib when arms wrap around my waist. "We did a great job" he kisses the side of my head, I relax against him as we look at our daughter who's finally asleep.

I turn around to face him and press my lips to his, melting into the slow kiss. I pull away as he rests his head against mine, arms wrapped around my waist as he looks into my eyes, "I love you."

"I love you too."
