Never in my life will I ever complain about period cramps again . It didn't take too long for me to realize my water had broken and this was all thanks to Enzo .
I wasn't quite sure if I was gonna deliver anytime soon especially after hearing how long people could be in labor for .
"Breathe Anya breathe ." I look to my right to see Zoe standing right beside me , technically I was eight months and the doctor did say he'd come early I just didn't think it would be today .
I look up at the ceiling and bite her hand when another contraction kicks in . It felt like my insides were tightening together.
On my left is Enzo who looked puzzled, he had know idea what to do , it was late at night and I didn't wanna Stay at a hospital where I didn't feel comfortable .
I feel a kiss on the side of my head as I inhale a sharp breath feeling him move inside me .
"I love you." He whispers against my ear
"She's not dilated , this is will take a while." I hear nonna say as she had just finished checking in between my legs . I was already exhausted , the contractions came and went every 8-9 minutes so I only could manage to rest for some little time .
"Can't I just push already?" I pant
"No you have to be dilated sweetheart."
My eyes meet Enzo and the concern on his face was obvious . " this is your fault." I whimper feeling tears roll down my face . It hurt so bad
"I'm sorry."
"Can you help me up?" His hand rests on my lower back as he helps me sit up , I take a deep breath reaching for his arms . I couldn't sit all day , I needed to be able to move around.
"Anya are you sure about this?"
"Yes."
"Your not dilated Tesoro , try move around si?" Nonna says in a calm voice and I nod my head, gripping Enzo's forearms.
"Are you okay?"
"Yeah."
I pull down my shirt to cover my exposed belly , Enzo tightly holds my hand and leads us out the room .
"We're gonna take slow steps okay Tesoro?"
I nod, the hallway was long and narrow I never did understand why this house had so many rooms . It was around 9 in the evening and I felt so guilty for keeping everyone awake .
"I can't wait to meet him." I say looking down at my stomach "feels like he's been in here for ages."
"We'll eight months is a long time dont you think?"
"Yeah-mhmm."
We both stop in our tracks abs he's quick to ask if I'm okay . "I'm fine, just another one."
"Do you wanna sit-"
"No I need to walk." I exasperate in person and I attempt to take a deep breath . I feel a large gush between my legs and I look back up at Lorenzo he seemed to notice this and I felt so bad for him because he had no clue what to do .
"Fuck." He whispers
He lets go off my hand and picks me up instantly walking us back to the room we just came from , Nonna was sitting beside a bunch of equipment whilst conversing with Zoe .
"Her water properly broke."
"Your water can break twice ?" Zoe asks I wanted to respond but I was in too much pain to even speak .
"I think he's coming out ."
"You need to be 10 centimeters sweetie-"
"I can't take it any longer." I yell beginning to grow annoyed of hearing the same thing being repeated.
"I'm right here my love." Lorenzo says in a soothing ttone . "Your gonna have to start soon."
My eyes meet his and I knew he could see the amount of pain I was in . My contractions had increased over the hour and I knew I had to push soon . I wasn't even aware nonna was looking in between my legs .
So embarrassing
"I can see his head."
Thud may sound weird but have you ever tried taking a shit but you struggled? That's exactly what it felt like . I know it sounds wrong comparing my son to something foul but I couldn't think of anything else .
"Push." Is all I heard for the fourth time , I wasn't even sure if I was pushing or shitting honestly .
I look at Enzo who's face goes pale when I see him looking over towards Nonnas direction .
"What's wrong?"Zoe who was on my other side wipes the sweat off my forehead with a towel . "Oh my God ."
"What's wrong is he okay?" I begin to panic no one was saying a word , I had no idea wether my baby was okay or not
A gargled cry fills my ears and I smile and sigh in relief when nonna lifts up Elijah . He was covered in blood , she wipes off the sticky substance and covers him in a blanket before handing him over to me .
"cut the cord Enzo ."
He looks at me and I nod my eye going back to my baby . His eyes opens a few seconds later and I feel my heart melt when I notice the two different colored eyes .
Just like Lorenzo when he was a child .
"Look baby." I whisper , he kisses the side of my head softly , placing a softer one on Elijah's . "He looks like me." He chuckles and i roll my eyes knowing he didn't inherit any of my looks . What a waste of eight months .
"Oh he's adorable." Zoe coos , the three of us stare down at him , Elijah doesn't cry , I hold onto his tiny fingers and watch as he babbles .
I can't believe he was inside me , furthermore I can't believe I'm a mom now . My body felt so weak after pushing for so long but it was honestly worth it . I give him to Zoe as Enzo was too overwhelmed , but it was understandable he was still adjusting .
Holy shit I just had a baby
