Love Like This

One in a Million

A/N: I've been M.I.A for a few weeks, here's a little something for your patience.
—

Liv had carried her second pregnancy smaller than her first and that convinced Spencer that she was having a little girl. Spencer had been saying they were having a baby girl since they agreed to have another child. He loved having a son, SJ was so bright and caring, he truly was the best parts of both of his parents, but now that Spencer had done the boy dad stuff, he wanted to do tea parties and daddy/daughter dances.

"I just want a little girl with your eyes and smile." Spencer would say to Liv, adamant about their second pregnancy being a girl.

They stood in their home surrounded by family, waiting for everyone could gather so they could pop the confetti poppers and find out if Spencer was getting his girl.

Only Jen knew the gender, that way Spencer couldn't badger his way into finding out early. She had been tight lipped in the weeks that she'd known and made sure to shut Spencer down every time he asked for a hint.

As the countdown began, SJ made his way from the arms of his Uncle Jordan to his parents, hugging their legs before Spencer lifted him into his arms.

The confetti popped. Pink.

Spencer started yelling immediately.

"I get my girl! I'm a girl dad now!" Spencer screamed as he hugged Liv and SJ.

"You're having a sister." Liv said to SJ, kissing the face of her first born.

"Daddy happy?" SJ asked as he watched his father yell.

"He's very happy." Liv confirmed with a laugh.

After finding out that he was having a little girl, Spencer started buying every little girl clothing item he could find. He couldn't wait to hold his little girl.

"I'm already losing my man to this little girl and she's not even here yet." Liv teased as she joked around with Simone.

"Girl, that man has been sprung since you were 18. Is he excited about having a daughter? Absolutely. Will you ever have to compete for his attention? No. If anything, you'll have to beat him off of you." Simone said before scooping SJ into her arms and tickling him.

They'd decided on Aaliyah as her first name. But once again, middle names were proving to be difficult.

"Well, we can't name her after Jordan." Spencer said as he rubbed Liv's calves. "Dillon would kill me if Jordan got both of our kids."

"Since Coop is SJ's godmother, she's out of the running for any name sharing with Aaliyah. That wouldn't be fair." Liv responded.

They went back and forth for weeks until Spencer figured it out.

"I got it! I know her middle name!" Spencer said as he busted into their bedroom.

Liv quickly lifted a finger to shush her husband, pointing at SJ who was napping on their bed. Spencer quickly grabbed her hand a pulled her into the bathroom.

"I know who our baby girl should share a name with. It hit me like a ton of bricks when I was on my way home, and I couldn't believe we hadn't thought about it yet."

Liv smiled at her husband's excitement, gesturing for him to continue.

"Patience. She should share a middle name with Patience!" Spencer began. "Patience has always been there for us, and we've only grown closer as we've gotten older. So, I think our girl should be Aaliyah Renee James. Named after her auntie Patience."
