After the Fall

Shocking Experience Part 2 (Fluff)

Beautiful.

That is how to describe Annalise as Amberlee holds her. Amberlee can't help but just smile as she does, Annalise looking up at her, occasionally letting out little yawns as well.

"Child birth is freaky but...beautiful." Amberlee says, her smiling down at Annalise. "I mean, me personally I would never and I saw some traumatizing stuff while mom was giving birth to you that I'm still trying to let leave my head but...you know it brought along you so it is all worth it."

Lucas smiles, him looking back at Max to still see her asleep, his hand at the top of her head while he slowly strokes her forehead with his thumb.

"She's okay dad." Amberlee assures.

"I know." Lucas comments, him still looking at her. "It just..kind of sends me into a little panic when she passes out. Due to her injuries C sections are more dangerous so she chooses to go natural regardless so...."

Amberlee nods her head in understanding. "Well she handled it like a champ."

"Yeah, yeah she did." Lucas smiles.

Amberlee goes to hand Annalise to Lucas, him going to take her and hold her. He smiles down at her, softly stroking her cheek while she looks up at him. "Hey." Lucas smiles. "It's daddy. Hi."

"So do you think she is going to be like mom or you?" Amberlee questions.

"She's a girl so...maybe like your mom?" He states it more as a question.

Amberlee shrugs a little bit. "I have a feeling she is going to be like you." She mentions. "I don't know just a little feeling."

"Really?" Lucas smiles.

"Yeah." Amberlee nods, her looking at Annalise. "Well she has definitely one thing in common with you, she's studying all of us."

"Yeah she is." Lucas says while looking down at Annalise, her still looking up at Lucas. "You know it took you a few days before you opened your eyes."

"Really?"

"Yeah I think it was the day Max got released from the hospital." Lucas nods. "We were fixing up your cradle and you just started to open your eyes and we all just...freaked, in a good way because you had your mothers eyes."

Amberlee smiles, her shrugging a little bit. "Well of course you all did, I'm awesome."

Lucas laughs softly. "Here I'm going to go get everyone else, tell them they can come on and come in here."

"Okay." Amberlee responds, Lucas handing back Annalise to to her. Amberlee looks down at Annalise as Lucas leaves out of the door, her smiling down at her.

"Yep, I am the amazing older sister." Amberlee nods. "You know on those movies where the siblings always fight? Well...you were just born so you don't know, but usually the sisters always get into it, either out of jealousy for one another or they are just petty. I don't want that to be us you know? I know we are going to have a age gap but I want us to be as close as ever."

Amberlee looks up when the door opens, everybody going to make their way inside of the room, all of them smiling brightly at the scene.

"Aww, the one time your smiling." Amir says with a smile, Amberlee just looking at him with a bored expression. "I'm sorry I just had to throw that out there."

"Oh my god Charles we have another grand baby!" Sue squeals.

"So how does it feel Ambie?" Nancy questions with a smile.

"Amazing." Amberlee responds.

"Now you have to give her a nickname." Amir says. "You know a nickname special to her." He adds in, looking over at Summer and going to give her a wink, her gigging softly in response.
