My Devious Soul

A New Life

Yana's POV:
Six months later...
These six months passed so fast,plus my belly grew big too.I think Elijah was more stressed out than I was.

He always took care of me.For example he didn't let me carry a small full bag and was very cautious when it came to food.

Our intimacy changed too.From having sex two til four times a week to once and when the second trimester started,we only made out.

Elijah drove me every month to the doctor to see,if the baby and I are fine.We started to decorate the nursery and bought clothes and everything we needed.

We also had a small Gender Reveal party with only the close ones and they found out that it was going to be a girl by popping a white balloon where pink powder was inside.

Everyone then started proposing names making Elijah and I think about it on the same evening.

"Do you have any name ideas?"He asked me,"Yeah,I do."I responded while trying to lay down in bed next to him.

Elijah took me in his arms,placing gently his hand on my belly.

"I really like the name Victoria."I admitted giving him a smile,he nodded and questioned"What about Emiru?I thought maybe we could give her the name after my mother since none of them had the chance to meet."

I nodded thoughtfully and responded after a few seconds"Victoria Emiru Creed.I like it!"Elijah gave me smile.

He occasionally asked me different things like what should he do to the baby,if I'm not around,how to calm her down,how to make sure the milk isn't too hot,how to measure the water temperature,but I was sure that Elijah was going to be a great father.

And so the big day came.

It was the 18th August when my water broke.Elijah immediately rushed to the hospital trying to get me there as soon as possible since the contractions started.

It was the hospital where I found out that I was pregnant.We arrived there at 07:00 pm and I was brought in the birth room.

I was surrounded by two doctors and four nurses while Elijah stood next to me holding my hand and assuring me that everything will be alright.

The labor process was long,hard and painful.Sweat was dripping from my forehead as I struggled to push the baby out.But eventually,Victoria was born.

I was so exhausted from the birth and just after it I fell asleep knowing that I gave birth to a healthy little girl.

The following morning...
I slowly opened my eyes and remarked Elijah sitting on a sofa chair next to me,he was watching TV,he booked the V.I.P. room.

He saw me awake and approached the bed.

He leaned in and said softly"Mornin'!"I smiled and tried to stretch a little.

Elijah was staring at me with admiration.

"You did it,Yana.I'm so proud of you!"Elijah admitted proudly and pressed his lips against mine.

I smiled brightly and asked curiously"Where's the baby?"Elijah was about to tell me when suddenly a few knocks were to be heard at the door.

The nurse came in and spoke quietly while pushing tbe crib to my bedside and Elijah and I's gaze were aimed at the crib"Good morning.Here's your newborn.Congratulations,it's a girl!"

Elijah and I sincerely thanked.

"Would you like to hold her?"She asked curiously.I immediately nodded and tried to stand up so I can sit down on the bed.

The nurse named Audrey carefully handed me the baby and as soon as I felt her body onto my arms,I felt chills running down my spine.

She was so beautiful!

"We only need her name."She requested politely holding a black clipboard in her left hand on which a white pen was attached.

"It's Victoria Emiru Creed."Elijah replied with confidence.

The nurse noted it and thanked before leaving the room.

Elijah then sat down on the bed edge and we both stared happily and proudly at Victoria.

"She's so small."Elijah whispered smiling,I smiled and nodded."I can't believe she's ours."I admitted looking at Elijah."Me too!"He replied staring back.

He slowly leaned in and kissed my lips passionately.

As soon as we broke the kiss,I put my finger on Victoria's palm gently and she immediately grabbed my finger in her small hand.

We FaceTimed the close ones and showed them the baby who was sleeping in my arms.

Everyone maintained,she looks like an angel.

The evening arrived and all three of us were together.

Elijah was sitting on the sofa chair with his head in his palm while I had Victoria in the arms and watching TV.

I remarked Elijah's sleepy eyes knowing that he didn't get a chance to rest.

"Mon amour."I called trying to get his attention.He raised his head and gave me a smiley face.

"Why don't you go home?You must be exhausted from staying up all night."I suggested friendly,his face was skeptical and wanted to stay longer,but I added"It's alright.The baby and I are fine."He smiled and nodded.

He stood up and gave me a soft kiss on the lips and the baby one on the forehead before leaving.
