Wrong Number (Larry Stylinson)

forty one

---Merri's POV---

I sat up as Zayn hit the ground and winced, lying back down.

A nurse came over and helped me relax. "Miss, there have been complications, but your baby's heart is starting to beat again. It's very faint, but we're getting some vital signs. Zayn just passed out probably from stress. We will take care of it."

I watched nervously as people hovered over Zayn and over my baby boy. I wanted to hold him so badly...

They woke Zayn up and got him into a chair with a glass of water. He reached up and held my hand. "Zayn, please tell me that everything is gonna be okay..."

He gave my hand a light squeeze. "I can't, babe..."

"Where are Diana and Maddie?"

"They asked them to leave a while ago."

"I'm so tired."

I perked up as a small cheer and a cry came from where the nurses were standing.

I gasped and Zayn let out a sigh of relief as one of them turned around with a bundle in their hands. "Congrats on your new baby boy, Miss. He's a miracle child. He almost didn't make it."

I grinned widely and felt myself start to tear up as she placed the baby in my arms. "Oh my...He's so beautiful, Zayn. He has black hair like you...and he has my nose..."

Zayn was sitting in the chair next to me, crying. "He's perfect. I was so scared."

I held him for a moment and then gave him to Zayn, who was more than happy to hold him.

"He's beautiful, Mer."

"I know. We need to think of a name."

He bit his lip and stared down at his newborn child. "Something cool and legendary. Something that represents rebirth."

I sat back and shut my eyes, trying to think.

He gasped. "Got it. We could name him Phoenix. Like, because Phoenixes die and then return from ashes. They're reborn."

I smiled weakly. "That's a beautiful name."
