Story 11 (24)

Nina groaned in agony, leaning over as she held her swollen belly as Ian rubbed her back.
"I'm so sorry this hurts so much Neens." Ian whispered, kissing the back of her neck. She was only 3cm diolated and in a lot of pain, but refusing an epidural.
"Never make me do this again." Nina scowled, groaning as a doctor came in to check on her.

"Miss Dobrev, can I check Please?" The man asked, glancing at Ian as if to ask him to leave.
"I'm not leaving." Ian said, moving so Nina could lie down. The doctor checked, telling her that she was now 6cm.

Nina groaned, throwing a pair of socks at Ian, often laughed and came to sit with her.
"I love you Nina, I'm so proud of you. " Ian smiled.
"I'm a mess" she laughed.
"A beautiful mess. You're having our daughter." He smiled, watching as Nina put on a brave face, lying back down. She put her hand out, squeezing Ian's hand. After hours of waiting, Nina was finally ready to start pushing.

...

Ian stood by her side as they were in the operating room, pain shooting through his hand as Nina squeezed it. He didn't complain, not once, he knew Nina was in more pain than him. After what seemed forever of screaming and pushing, and a broken bone in Ian's hand, they heard the raw cry from their baby girl.

"Dad, want to cut the cord?" A doctor asked, holding his girl. Ian nodded, walking over and cutting it, watching the doctor hand the baby to Nina. They hadn't picked a name yet, so for now she was just their princess. Ian went to get his finger taped up, after Nina had managed to break it.

"She's so pretty." Nina smiled as they were back in their room.
"She needs a name baby." Ian smiled.
"I may have thought of one. Also, I'm sorry I broke your finger and hand." Nina laughed, holding their little girl.
"It's okay. What's the name?" She asked.

"Promise you won't laugh?" Nina asked.
"Promise."
"Lilian Rose Somerhalder." She said.
Ian smiled, holding back a laugh at the irony of a lil-ian. The small girl had a head of black hair, the brightest blue eyes, but with freckles and Nina's nose and eyebrows.

"She's beautiful, she looks just like you Ian." Nina smiled, holding the sleeping girl. Ian hummed, stroking her head as he sat behind Nina. He didn't think he could ever love someone more than he loved Nina. He was wrong. He loved this girl so much, every nerve in his body was telling him to hold her close and always protect her. She was his girl, and she was beautiful. Nina was still extremely sore, and Ian knew he'd be taking care of both of them for a few days, something he was perfectly fine with.

"Nina?" Ian asked, kissing her gently.
"Yeah?"
"I want to marry you." He said, watching Nina look at him in pure shock. "I'll propose properly, get a ring, take you out. But I'm ready if you are." He said.
She looked at her daughter, then back at Ian before nodding with a big smile, he head falling into his shoulder. "I'm ready."

...

Ian and Nina soon learned that Lilian preferred to be in her fathers arms of she was awake, but wouldn't sleep without Nina.
They spent two days I'm the hospital before they were released to go home. Nina had unfortunately gone into labor midway into a house move, luckily the nursery was finished so it was okay.
"Welcome home Lilian." Ian said, holding the tiny girl in his arms. Her bright blue eyes looked up into his, squirming as she did.

"Ian." Nina groaned, holding onto him for support. He gave her a sympathetic smile, putting the girl in her Moses basket so he could help his girlfriend to the sofa.
"Our 2018 baby." Ian smiled as he picked up the basket, moving it to the side of the sofa, lying with Nina.
