By My Side(Book 2 to The Lynchs)

Chapter 43

Ross P.O.V

I sat there in the room holding myself trying to tell myself that it was going to be okay, that Jasmine and the babies will be fine. But those thoughts were being block from how I saw her, she looked weak, fragile, and so tired that it worried me.

I felt a strong hand on my shoulder and I look up to see Ryan, Jasmine's father looking at me with his red puffy eyes "How are you doing?" He asks softly as he takes a seat next to me on the couch in the room.

"I really don't know because this whole thing is so stressful but then there is the thought of me seeing my kids which brings me joy" I sigh as I run my fingers through my hair which was angering me "I just want all of them to be okay, cause I cant imagine life without them" I said as I look at him.

Ryan sighs and chuckles "You are so young and seeing you do so well with Jasmine it makes me smile. Me and her mother were just a little older then you guys when we had her but with me still in med school it was a mess. You guys are doing better then half of the world's parents already" He says sincerely.

His words were soothing just a little and it was nice to hear from a man who has been through this all "So did you see Jasmine be born?" I ask since I lost the chance to see my children be born.

He chuckles and smiles at the memories "Oh Ross, I remember Jasmine when she first cry" he choked on his words as a few tears slipped from his eyes "She was covered in who knows what and she was crying like there was no tomorrow. She also sure had a full head of hair when she was born and we were just so happy to see her" He chuckled softly.

I smile as I hear about this, to hear how my wife as born "I wonder if she is okay?" I ask myself and I felt me biting my bottom lip from all the stress I was feeling. Maybe she is okay or maybe they were having difficulties in the room, but with these thoughts I only felt my nerves rise as I think of every pro and con possible.

"Don't worry my boy she is always in good hands" He smiles "She married an amazing man and she has the best doctors working on her, nothing is wrong" He says and then looks at me in the eyes "Look Ross I know this is a bad time but I really need to tell you this"

I look at him with a questioning look but I mean he is my father in law so there is no much harm done from a few words "Alright cause I could talk about anything right now" I said as I put my full attention to Ryan.

He cleared his throat and coughed "Okay look Ross that day you married my daughter I was hiding words and feelings because I knew you both were all grown up. I've seen you both from so young, heck I even saw your birth cause I was there he chuckled softly.

I looked at him with my eyebrow raised "I don't think you were my doctor" I said as I look at him with a worry eye and a little frighten from his words.

"Yeah I know that I was an assistant nurse at the time, I was trying to help but that's not what I want to talk about. Okay look when I handed Jasmine to you at the alter I didn't feel worried or that she was going to wrong hands, she was going to you and I was happy. Ever since I saw you together at the dinner when you both were four I just saw you together from then on" he smiles letting a few tears fall from his eyes.

Jasmine's mom walks up to us "I haven't seen you cry this much since our daughter was born Ryan" She chuckles as she sits next to him and rest her hand on his shoulder.

I smile at her attempt of a joke and pull Jace close to me "Just having some father in law and I guess son in law talk?" I chuckle as I am new to the whole marriage thing.

Jace smiles as looks at Ryan "Hi grandfather I am Jace" he extends his hand outward for him to shake it.

Ryan smiles at him and shakes his hand "Nice to meet you" he looks at Jace and then at me "You guys look so much alike" he says shock.

I look at Jace with a smile "I guess we do, he has Jasmine's personality and my looks besides the green eyes" I ran my fingers through Jace's messy blonde combing out the knots and smoothing it out.

"You're eleven right?" Ryan asks as he looks at us with a smile.

"Yeah" Jace smiles at his grandfather.

"Well before we know this young man over here will be a heartbreaker cause he does have amazing looks" Ryan said as he pulls Jace in for a hug and messes his hair up.

"Don't forget that he is a little gentlemen and a sweet little boy. He is just perfect" Jasmine's mother says as she gives Jace a hug.

It was nice to see them give Jace attention cause who knows if he will get much of it especially with the babies coming. Plus it was nice to see us as a family, or at least act like it. It was true that good memories are made in hospitals cause hell do I feel all warm inside just sitting here and witnessing this moment.

"How about maybe you go spend the weekends with your grandparents? Since your mother will be busy with the babies and you could have fun with, get to spend time with them" I said as I look at Jace then at them "Sound good?" 'I ask.

"Sounds perfect" they both said as they gave both Jace a tight hug "You are amazing little gentlemen" she says with a smile.

There was a knock and then a nurse walked in "Mr.Lynch follow me"
