| Y/N's POV |

"She's so beautiful." Jenna whispered, it was just her and I in the room, our friends and family leaving to give us some space. "Just like you."

"And you." I tiredly rested my head against the pillow, my hand reaching out and resting on Jenna's bicep. "She's got your eyes. Big, brown, and beautiful."

"She has your cute, little button nose." Jenna cooed, holding Juno in her arms the correct way (my mom showed her how). "God, her hands are so tiny. She's so perfect, baby."

"I know." I sighed softly, my voice barely above a whisper as I leaned back, closing my eyes out of exhaustion. After being in labor for almost 4 hours, I had every right to be tired.

"You can rest, my love. You did amazing. I love you so much." Jenna whispered, kissing my hand. I smiled lightly before finally falling asleep.

—————

"We're going to keep you and the baby here for at least another day or two just for observation. It's good to make sure that you both are healthy and safe." Russo explained as he checked my vitals again. Jenna was here as soon as visiting hours opened, half-asleep on the chair beside my bed. "If you would like, I can request a cot for Jenna so she can stay here. Just so she feels comfortable about your stay."

"She would love that." I rub my girlfriend's arm, smiling when she mumbled a little in her sleep. Juno was sleeping in my free arm.

"Now, if it's okay, we'd like to run a quick check on Juno here." Russo asked politely.

"Of course." I kissed her forehead before carefully handing her over to doctor Russo who smiled at me before leaving, shutting the door quietly. "Baby? You awake?" I gently shook Jenna, hoping to see her awake but she snored softly, making me chuckle.

The door reopened, making me smile when I saw Dove standing there. "I was hoping to see the little one. My favorite niece now." Dove sat on the other side of me, taking my hand.

"She's your only niece and they're just checking her vitals." I informed, resting my head on her shoulder as I helped Jenna move her head in my lap. "I have to stay here for another day or two, they just want to make sure she and I are safe."

"That's good." Dove smiled. "Now tell me the name, I'm excited to know."

"Her name is Juno Isabel Ortega."

"Oh my goodness, that is the cutest name ever." Dove pouted and ran her thumb over my knuckles. "And Jenna is passed out, huh?"

"Yeah. My sweet baby has been staying up so late into the night, mostly worrying about me and Juno. Then she wakes up hella early to make my favorite food and bring it as soon as visiting hours open."

Dove placed her hand over her heart. "I swear if you two don't get married, I will take your baby."

Right on cue, doctor Russo returns with Juno in his arms. "She's one healthy baby." He handed her back to me, smiling softly before greeting Dove and leaving once more.

"You can't have my baby." I looked down at Juno, her tiny hands grasping at my pointer finger, her brown eyes opening up to meet mine. "She's too precious."

"She absolutely is." Dove cooed, leaning against my arm to get a closer look.

Jenna jolted up, wiping the drool from the corner of her mouth. "I'm awake." She looked around. "Oh, hey, Dove. How are you?"

"Uh huh." Dove nodded mindlessly, eagerly reaching for Juno and holding my daughter in her arms with the biggest smile on her face.

"Okay?" Jenna chuckled, rubbing the sleep out of her eyes as she looked at me with loving eyes. "Hi, baby. Sorry I fell asleep."

"You honestly deserve it." I sighed softly, caressing her cheeks. "The doctor said he'll get you a cot so you can stay here with me and Juno. Just so you don't have to worry so much."

"I deeply appreciate that." Jenna sighed happily, resting her forehead against mine before swiftly pecking my lips. "Dove, can I see my daughter now?"

"In a minute!" She whisper-yelled. "I'm busy with my niece." Jenna playfully rolled her eyes as I shrugged my shoulders, giggling alongside my girlfriend.

—————

A day and a half later, I'm finally getting checked out of the hospital. Jenna and I filled out the birth certificate papers, receiving a baby carrier for Juno. Jenna held it since she wanted to help take whatever unnecessary weight off me for the next couple days. Per doctor's request.

She opened the doors for me, I walked out and breathed a sigh of relief when there was no paparazzi outside. Tate, Lloyd, Liv, Billie, and Dove stood outside by our car. "You must be hungry." Tate approached me. "How about that dinner?"

—————

We sat in the living room of our house, everyone gathered around the table with Thai food on the table. We joked, laughed, and cooed over how cute Juno was again. Lloyd and Tate cuddled up on the rocking chair while we watched a movie. Liv and Bil did the same but on the opposite end of the couch. Dove was munching on popcorn on the floor with Daisy in her lap.

Banjo was in Jenna's lap, I held Juno in my arms. "Thank you for everything." I laid my head on Jenna's shoulder. "You're the best person in my life and I'm so happy to raise Juno with you."

"Me too, mi amor. Me too." Jenna kissed my forehead longingly, looking down at our daughter and me with so much love.
