All Grown Up

Ashley

Stephen POV

Ashlen is like the most biggest baby when she's in pain."Where is my daddy?! I want my daddy!" Ashlen cried out in pain."He'll be here in a few." I said as she squeezed my hand tightly. We were in the hospital and she was bout to give birth.We were in the middle of wedding errands once her water broke"I want him nooow - owwww!" She cried as another contraction came."He's comin-" I said as her dad came rushing in saying"I'm right here baby." He dapped me and kissed her forehead. Just by the way Ashlen was acting cause her daddy was not here at the moment, made me think it must have been hell on earth when she gave birth to Alfo, because her dad was not there. As Her dad held her other hand he said"Len relax." "Daddy it hurts!"she cried.

August POV

It truly hurt me when she said"Daddy it hurts" because I couldn't make her feel better, it wasn't like a cut, I couldn't kiss it and make it better. I didn't even see a grown up, I seen my little girl and I knew she was scared. I seen the fear in her eyes that were glossy. She was completely scared when she had Alfo, Trey had to call me to cool her down. Seeing her cry actually made me tear up. I kissed her forehead and wiped my tears."Len you got to put on your big girl hat and take it." I said. "I'm scared daddy."She said.

Stephen POV
After few good hard hand squeezes for every push, Ashley was finally born. She had Ashlen's look and my eyes. I kissed Ashlen's forehead as I held Ashley."We got ourselves a new ling lee." her dad said as he lightly smiled."Yea." Ashlen said as we all looked at Ashley. I then let August hold her. I could tell this was an touchy moment for August and Len. They were missing Ashley and I was actually missing her too. The doctor then said "Whats her name?" We all said in unison"Ashley August-Alina Curry." The doctor then said"Thats a nice name." The doctor then left. I kept taking pictures."Where's the kids?"August asked as he handed the baby to Ashlen. "Alfo is with his dad and Riley is with my parents." I said

Ashlen's Pov

Once we were able to take her home, Stephen and I discovered all the things she had in common with my mom. The way she curled her toes and fingers while she slept like my mom did when she was a baby. Or how she rubs her feet together,while she's sleep like my mom, me, and Alfo does. Her sneeze is very similar to my moms,but in a baby way. But Stephen had her to ourselves for a month, since Stephen's mom wanted to help, she took care of Riley and once Alfo leaves his dad she'll be taking care of Alfo. Ashley is a strangely quiet baby, she just stares at you and smiles. The only time she cry is when she hungry. She likes quiet and things being relaxing. But what she don't know is,there is no such thing as quiet in our house."Ashley so lucky, she get to suck on your tidies." Stephen said as I breastfed ashley."Aww you want to suck on mommies tidies." I said as I laughed."I actually do, I wanna know how your milk taste."he said. I laughed as he grabbed my other breast and started sucking on it. As I laughed I said"Ashley aint feeling you drinking her milk. " He looked over at her as she gave him a look. He chuckled against my breast and kissed it as he stopped. "Your milk is actually good, its sweet, I would have never thought anything else would taste better than your juice" Stephen said as I laughed."You so silly."I said. I was done feeding.So Stephen took Ashley from me and played with her as I took a shower. Stephen came into the bathroom with Ashley saying"My mom is coming over with Riley and Alfo, tomorrow." I then peeked my head out the shower curtain and said"She dropping them off already?" He chuckled and said"No,they just wanna meet Ashley." I sighed in relief and said"Alright." He chuckled as he sat on the counter,while Ashley was slowly falling asleep."When she said that, I did the same thing. I was just thinking,Alfo running around and asking for this that, Riley crying over this and that, and Ashley regretting she came into this family."Stephen said. I bust out laughing to that because I was thinking the same."Poor Ling Lee probably won't get much rest with them around, Welcome to the Fam Ashley, It aint no sleeping around hea bih." I said as I rinsed off as Stephen laughed. "Like I can just see Alfo all in Ashley's face, with some toy." I said.Stephen chuckled and said"I can see it too."I then got out the shower and dried off. "We just might make some more babies with your fine self." Stephen said as I wrapped my towel around me."You tried that, we got three kids under 2 years old."I said giving him a look."So you saying after They past two, we going for baby number 4" Stephen said as he followed me out the bathroom."Oh you must be carrying the baby in your stomach this time huh." I said.He chuckled and said"no, I just want another baby with you." I laughed and said"ooh boy stahp,you just tryna get in my panties." He smiled and said"that too"as I dressed. He then put Ashley in her room and came back.As I laid in bed with my lace bra and panties, Stephen Truly believed I was tryna fu** but really I was just hot. So Stephen took off his bottoms and I busted out laughing."Why you laughing."He said."I'm not tryna fu** I'm tryna sleep."I said as I laughed.He then smacked his teeth and said"Really." I smiled and said"Yes really,Wait til our honeymoon, I'll make it real special." He licked his lips and said"Aight." He then laid in bed with me and held me."Stephen, I haven't went dress shopping yet, how can we forget that,We got everything done except for that." I said as my eyes grew big."You can go next week as I watch Ashley." He said as he played in my hair."Alright sounds like a plan" I then said"Oh gosh I don't think I want anyone with me." Stephen looked down at me and said"Why not?" I then said"I'm gonna get stressed over who likes a dress and who doesn't or me liking something and they don't like it." He then said"It don't matter if they disagree, its not their dress, its yours." I then said"You're right, but I rather just have my dad come, but I know how important it is for the ladies in my life to be there." Stephen then said"Its up to you baby." I then looked up at him and he kissed me. We ended up falling a sleep and taking turns every four hours. Since Ashley sleeps through the night the doctor tells us to wake her up every four hours so she won't get dehydrated.

The next day Stephen's mom, dad,sydel ,seth,Alfo and riley came. "wow she looks just like you, well a little like Ansley." Steph's dad said to me."exactly."Seth cosigning. "She only got stephen eyes and ears, but I believe once she get older, she gone look straight up like him." Stephen's mom said."I truly believe that, because each day Riley begins to look like Stephen, so very possible." I said as Stephen's mom held her.Alfo then came to Ashley with his Pirates of Caribbean action figure.Stephen And I busted out laughing, because we were just talking about this last night."Alfo Get your toy out Ashley's face,"I said as I laughed.He then took it out her face and put it in Ashley's hand."I share." Alfo said as he kissed her forehead."Aww that was nice baby." I said. I swear Alfo loves his sisters so much, being a big brother is his favorite thing to do."Oh yea,Ma I was wondering if you and Sydel want to come with me to look for a dress." I said as Stephen pulled me into his arms."Of course." They said in unison."Alright." I said as I smiled.They then surrounded ashley as Stephen and I played With Riley and Alfo.
