-----------------Danny POV--------------

Jenn was in the kitchen when I heard it.
"Fuck!" I heard something glass fall and then she yelled, "DANNY!!" I rushed from the living room and into the kitchen to find Jenn holding her stomach and a hell of a lot of liquid around her.
"Danny. Get me to a hospital."
"Why?"
"DO YOU WANT A FUCKING CHILD OR NOT?!?!?"
"We can't go until your contractions are five minutes apart."
"Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck." Finally they were set apart and I helped Jenn to the car and then hauled ass, calling Ben.
"What shithead?"
"Water. Broke. Hospital. NOW!"
"TELL YOUR FUCKING WIFE TO GET HER ASS THERE TOO!!!!!" Danny hung up and focused on driving.
"Holy fuck! Damnit Danny why the fuck did I let you get me pregnant." I grabbed her hand and she squeezed the living daylight out of it. Which was understandable I couldn't even begin to think of the pain that she was going through right now. I pulled into the emergency room drop off and bolted out of the car.
"My wife is going into labor!! Can I get some help here??" Two nurses rushed towards me and I lead them to the car. Jenn was in there panting and looking in some serious pain.
"Excuse me ma'am. I'm Lorin. I'm gonna help you out of the car okay?" She nodded and took a deep breath. She got out of the car and into a wheelchair before she screamed again.
"Delivery room 3A! I need twenty CCs and an epidural stat. She's going under! Sir! I'm gonna need you to move!"
"I'm the father." She just nodded and entered a code and the doors swung open.
"We're gonna have to deliver this baby C-Section. Sir I need you in scrubs and in room 3A when your finished." I nodded and followed a nurse to the scrub room. He tossed me what I needed and I put them on over my clothes. I put bags on my shoes and put my hair in a wrap. I followed the same nurse back to the room and stood by my wife.
"Sir she's stable at the moment, and we're going to do this birth naturally. I need you to hold her hand and tell her to mind her breathing." I nodded. Why didn't they have to do this with Ben? Oh because Ben was calm as fuck. I held her hand and she squeezed until she couldn't anymore.
"Easy baby. Just remember your breathing. In out. In out." She did as she was told until the doctor spoke.
"Okay Mrs. Worsnop you're ready  on the count of five I want you to push. One, two, three, four, five, push." She did and Jenn squeezed my hand harder, if that was possible. This happened another seven times until I finally heard a cry "Time of birth 11:11 pm September 21st." I couldn't focus on what they were saying for long though because a few seconds after a very loud series of beeps went off and then a long continuous one.
"She's dropping!!" I was gently pushed out of the way. "Sir I need you to stay back. Charge to 100. Clear." The doctor pressed shock pads to Jenns chest. "No response. Up another two charges. 500. Clear." She did it again and then one more time and there was no change. I stood staring at my wife's body. "Time of death 11:20 pm."
Time of death....
Time....
Of....
Death...
"No. No no no no no no. NO!"
"Mr. Worsnop we need you to cut the cord." Not feeling my legs move, I cut the cord. And then fell to my knees. I don't know how long I was down there, but after a minute or so I guess I heard it.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" I looked up and saw my wife sitting straight up, giving a scream that could rival mine of Dear Insanity.
"Mrs. Worsnop! Ma'am! Do you know where you are??" The doctors were crowding her and asking her question checking her vitals.
"I know damn well where I am. Give me my daughter."
"Just one second ma'am." I got off my knees and walked over to my wife. I lent down and kissed her with every ounce of love I had for that woman.
"Don't you ever do that to me again."
"I'm not going anywhere Mr. Worsnop." A nurse came back with a bundle wrapped in a pink blanket. She passed her to Jenn and Jenn let out a cry of joy. I looked at the baby and joined in the cry. Wrapped in pink was a little girl with a button nose. Her bottom lip was a bit fuller than the top which she got from Jenn. On the top of her hair was a little bit of a almost white silver hair. Her eyes were closed and she was cooing softly.
"Hi baby girl. Welcome to the world. Danny do you want to hold her?" I nodded and I took her gently. She stretched and curled against my chest.
"She's six pounds and three ounces. Eighteen inches long. Healthy as can be. We just need to take her to the Nursery and get her in the system. She'll be back in 30 minutes tops. What's her name?"
"Florence. Florence Eavan Worsnop." I smiled at the middle name. Jenn said she wanted something Irish and this is what I found for her.
"How is her middle named spelt?"
E-A-V-A-N. Pronounced Eve-een." She nodded and took Florence and walked out of the room. Another nurse came in and set down a new dress.
"Get changed and we're gonna move you to a nicer room." Jenn did so and I changed out of the scrubs. The nurse came back and moved us up two floors. Jenns doctor was in there with Florence in a baby bed.
"She is beautiful. Congratulations you two. Now about your delivery scare. You are perfectly healthy. It's common for mothers to scare like that after a birth. You're healthy. Your daughter is healthy."
I sighed and she walked out.
"I like the middle name Danny. You did good."
"I did that one myself this time." Jenn scooted over onto her bed and patted the space beside her. I grabbed our daughter and climbed in beside her. I fell asleep with my world beside me.
