Reba is 8 months pregnant with her own little girl, she's the happiest she's ever been but the father hasn't been around the whole time. They had a one night fling and then he was gone.
They have known each other for most of their lives. They were heart friends but lived different lived
Reba came waddling into work. "What do you have for me today Scott" she said
"Just a couple of interviews." He said
She groaned. "More people to ask where my wedding ring is." She said trying to make a joke.
"It's gonna be okay red." He said
"That's what they all say" she sighed and pushed off the counter going to her office.
Her belly was moving around like crazy
"Calm down baby girl, mommys got you" she soothed talking to her belly with her office door open.
She was kicking like a crazy baby
Reba pushed on her belly and breathed.
The baby calmed down
She smiled big
"Mama needs to get you a name." She said
She kicked and stretched out.
Reba rubbed her belly
"What about.... Amber?" She asked her belly?
Baby didn't move
She huffed
She had no idea what to name her
"This is hard" she said
The baby moved
"Yeah tell me about it" she said
She kept moving
Reba smiled and went to her interviews that day, the next day she showed up at starstruck and put her sunglasses up on top of her head and had her keys in her hands as she walked right in. "Who's ready for once again, another away show?" She said
"Nope all your Shows are in Nashville until after you have the baby." Scott smiled
"Have I told you how much I love you?" She said
"I love you too REEBS." He smiled
She giggled and smiled
"How she doing in there?" He asked
"She's getting big" she said
"How much longer?" He asked
"About 3 weeks" she said
"I think tonight is your last show." He said
"Really?" She asked
"Yes." He smiled
"When can I come back?" She asked
"You get 6 months off." He said
"Can I come in sporadicly?" She asked
"To visit, of course." He smiled
"But what if I have work to do?" She whined
"Your not going to have any." He said
"She can take naps while I work" she said
"You deserve to spend time with your daughter." He said
"Scott I'm a single mother, I need all the money I can get at this point" she said
"It's paid leave." He said
Reba Huffed. "Look what you've done" she whined at her belly
The baby started moving like crazy
She held her belly
She was huge
She groaned
"You okay?" He asked
"Yeah" she lied
He hugged her
She hugged him
"We're all here for you." He said
"It's just been hard you know?" She said
"I know." He nodded
"I miss him" she sighed
"I know you too." He said
"He just... Left, doesn't know he had a daughter with me" she said
"Have you called him?" She asked
"No" she said
"He doesn't know about her?" He asked
Reba looked down. "No" she said
"I think you should tell him." He said
"I can't I don't know his number" she said
"I do." He said
Reba breathed in and nodded. "Can I borrow your phone?" She asked holding her stomach with her free hand that wasn't reaching for the phone.
He wrote down the number abs handed it to her
She took it into her office and dialed the number slowly before putting the phone to her ear and waiting for the sound of his voice.
"Hello?" He answered
"Hi... This is uh..." She cleared her throat. "This is Reba" she said
"Hey Reba! How are you?!" He was so happy to hear from her
"Well that's why I actually called, can you meet for coffee like... Right now?" She asked
"Yep! Is everything okay?" He asked
"Yes but theirs something somewhat big that I have to tell you about" she said
"I'm on my way."
He says
Reba got there before him and got a table then hid her belly with a blanket.
"Hey!" He walked in smoking
Smiling
"Hey" she smiled
"How are you?" She asked
She chuckled a little. "I'm great" she said
"Awesome! It's a great seeing you." He smiled and sat across from her
"Look I have something I have to tell you" she said
"What's up?" He asked
"I may or may not be a little pregnant" she said
"What do you mean a little pregnant?" He asked
She stood up and took the jacket off her stomach.
His eyes widened. She was so beautiful to him. "Your so beautiful." He said not ever realizing it
"Narvel, eyes here. I'm pregnant with your child and you don't even care. You know what, I told you and now I can leave and continue to be a single mom." She said grabbing her bag.
"No no Reba that's why I said that. I mean your a beautiful women before your got pregnant but now, you have reached a whole new level of beautiful. I want to be involved. I want to be in my baby's live." He said holding her hand
She quivered at the Sparks that went off inside her when he grabbed her hand. "That's the nicest thing anyone's said to me.... Well since I was with you last" she said
"I want to be with you and and I want to be a family." He held her hands tight
"Can I ask you why? Why did you just up and leave that day?" She asked
"I had family stuff going on and I didn't want to put you through that." He said
"Narvel I was in love with you, I wanted to be with you forever, then I found out I was pregnant... I knew you wouldn't take me back if I was pregnant" she said
"I want you. I want to be your man, your love, your parter. I love you." He said sincerely
"If I never called you.... You wouldn't be here." She said
"I was planning on calling you today. I've been in Texas." He said
She looked at him and sighed and that's when she got a sharp pain in her stomach and she grabbed the spot.
"What's wrong? Are you okay?" He asked concerned
"Uh.... Uh yeah, just a sharp pain" she breathed
"Come on, let's go to the doctors." He said
"No, no I'm fine." She said
"Are you sure?" He asked
She nodded. "I have a show tonight" she said
"I'm coming." He smiled
"You sure?" She said
"Of course.0 she said
"Okay" she smiled
He put her hand on her belly
They went to her show.
He kept smiling at her

"A little girl" she said
"Our little princess." He smiled
She smiled big
"Last one before she gets here right?" He asked
She nodded and held her belly.
"She's getting big isn't she?" He asked
"Huge" she said
"I'm sorry honey." He said
"I just want her out" she said
"Three more weeks." He rubbed her belly
"Can't I just go early?" She whined
"Not too early." He said
"I want to go now." She said
He hugged her
She hugged him
He kissed her cheek
She went out on stage
He couldn't help but smile
She was having some back pain and lower stomach pain but she wouldn't complain
She had a great show
About half way through Narvel looked at Scott. "Can you get her a stool?" Narvel said
"Here." He handed one to him
"You want me to take it out there?" He said
He nodded
"No, out there?!" She said
"If you want to." He said
"No no no" he said
"Everyone I would like you to meet my boyfriend."Reba smiled looking at him

"She's doing it right now." He smiled
He placed his hand on her belly
She kicked it hard
He chuckled and smiled. "I'll let you finish" he said
"Love you." She smokes
"I love you" he said and walked off stage.
She finished her show
Narvel watched her
"Goodnight!" She walked off stage
He smiled at her big as she walked off
"Hi." She smiled
"Hey beautiful, I'll drive you home" he said
"Thanks sweetie." She said
He nodded and brought her home.
"Can you stay with me tonight? I just want to snuggle." She said
"Sure" he smiled
"Thank you." She smiled
He helped her inside
"There's something I want to show you." She smiled
"What's that?" He smiled
"Follow me." She smiled and grabbed his hand. They walked up stairs
He followed her to where they were going.
She lead them to the closed bedroom door next to hers
"What's this?" He asked
She smiled and opened the door. It was the nursery
"Oh my god babe, you did this all on your own?" He said
"Yep." She said
"Good job" he smiled
"Thanks sweetie." She smiled
"It's beautiful" he smiled
She smiled big
He kissed her cheek
"There's only one more thing to do." She said
"What?" He asked
"The most important one of all....Her name." She said
"You don't have a name?" He said
"She doesn't like any of he ones I asked her about." She said
"Why don't we wait till she's born and go by what she looks like?" He said
"I want you to like her name too." She said
"I will" he said
She smiled and hugged his waist tight
He held her and smiled
"I'm so happy your here." She smiled
"I'm so happy I'm here" he smiled
"Good because your never going away again." She said
She smiled big
He kissed her head. "Hey there's something I want to show you." He smiled
"What's that?" She asked
He pulled out a ring box and got down on one knee. "This is an engagement and a promise ring. I promise to be the best husband and father that can be for my two amazing girls. And if you'll take me, it would be an honor to be your be your husband. I love you more then anything." He said
"Yes and yes!" She put her hand over her mouth and helped him up.
He put the ring on her finger and he kissed her deep
She smiled and kissed him
He pulled her close by her waist and rested his hands on her hips
"Can you hold my stomach up instead?" She asked him quietly
"She's getting heavy?" He held her stomach
"So heavy" she said
He held her belly to relieve to pressure on her back
She took a big deep breath. "Thank you" she said
"Your welcome baby." He said
She closed her eyes. "Can we go to bed?" She asked, she was exhausted
"Yes ma'am." He nodded
She smiled and walked to her room.
He followed behind her
She crawled into bed
He got in next to her
She curled into him and started to fall into a deep sleep
He held her close and closed his eyes. The next morning
Reba woke up with some back pain but she still got up and got dressed and ready for work.
"Morning beautiful." He smiled
"Morning" she smiled
He kissed her
She kissed back and then looked at him. "So I have to work today, you can stay here if you want? Go home and come back later? Whatever you want to do" she said
"How about today I move my stuff in?" He smiled
"Have at it" she smiled kissing his cheek. "I love you and I'll be back at around noon" she said
"I love you too. Have a good day at work." He kissed her
She smiled and went to work. Once again she walked into starstruck, today she had a smile on her face
"Someone's smiley this morning." Scott chuckled
"I sure am!" She smiled putting her hands up on his dress and leaned forward.
"How'd it go last night? He asked
"Amazing!" She smiled big
"Is that a ring I see?!" He smiled big
Sandy and Brett and Jen all ran over to her when they heard that. "Yes, yes that's a ring you see" she giggled
"OMG!!!!" They cheered
Reba giggled. "He promised to to be the best most amazing daddy to our little girl and and he promised to never to leave me and then he asked me to marry him" she smiled showing them the ring
"That's so romantic!" Sandy cooed
Reba giggled and moved her free hand to her belly
"I'm so happy for your reebs." Brett smiled
"Thanks Brett" she smiled, she started to rub soothing circles on her belly. "He sure is going to be a good daddy" she said
"You guys got a name for her yet?" He asked
"No we're waiting to she's born to make a decision" she smiled
"That makes sense." He said
"We want to see what she looks like" she said
"Of course!!" They smiled
She smiled. "So what's for me today?" She asked holding her stomach up.
"More interviews." Scott said
"Ugh" she said
"What?" He asked
"I hate this" she said
"Today is your last day." He said
"Okay, I'll bring her in as soon as I can" she said
"Thanks Red." They smiled
Reba smiled and nodded
She waddled to her office
Narvel was there
"Babe?" She asked confused
"Scott said you could have a lazy day with me" he smiled
"Aww that was sweet of him." She hugged him
"How's my little girl?" He asked
"Heavy." She said
"Come on, I have a surprise@ he said
"What is it?" She asked
"Come with me" he grabbed her hand
She smiled and nodded
He took her to a limo
"Baby what's this?" She smiled
"The begging of our surprise" he said
She smiled big
He helped her in and then he got in on the other side.
"Where we going?" She asked
"It's a surprise I said!" He smiled
"Baby girl wants to know." She said
He leaned forward and told the belly very quietly so Reba couldn't hear.
The baby went crazy her daddy's voice
He smiled and placed his hand on her belly.
Reba smiled big at then
He sat up next to her.
"What he tell you baby doll?" She giggled
The baby went crazy. "I got you, stop worrying" she said
She rubbed her belly soothingly
They got to their destination and it was a very very very fancy high class restaurant that Reba was not ready nor dressed for.
"Baby here." He handed her a beautiful dress
"Baby what are we doing here?" She asked shocked. "I figured one last time for you to go out and show off your hot body before the baby is born"he said
She kissed him and smiled
"I hope your okay with this?" He said
"I love it." She smiled
"Good, I'll show you to where you can get changed" she said
She nodded
He showed her to the changing room and that's when it happened, Reba got beeped at by a car when she was crossing the road and she jumped and then she yelled "SHIT!"
"Reba? What's wrong?" Narvel ran to her
"My water just broke" she started crying.
"Oh holy crap. It's okay, just breath." He soothed and helped to the limo
"Narvel I'm scared!" She cried holding her belly.
"Baby look at me." He said
"Oh no.... No I ruined your dinner.... No no no!" She said
"Our daughter coming into the world is so cooler." He said
"Can we do this again? Some other time? I can put the baby with my mom?" She said as the limo started o drive
"Absolutely. I love you." He said and rubbed her belly
"I love you" she smiled
"Let's go have this baby." He smiled
"Okay baby" she smiled
He smiled
They practically labored the whole thing in the limo
" I want her out." She whimpers
"I know baby, just think in just a few short hours you'll have a little pink bundle in your arms" he smiled
"Hours?!" She cried
"To much?" He asked
"I'm in so much pain." She cried
"I know" he pulled her close and rubbed her belly
"She's so big." She said
"But she'll be out soon" he said
"It hurts so bad." She said
"I know, I know" she said
She started crying
They got to the hospital
"I need a wheelchair." She said
He nodded and got her one
"Thanks." She said
"Your welcome baby" he said
She held the bottom out her stomach up
He pushed her in
She was trying not to scream
He got her a room and he sat her down and rubbed her back.
"I need to call mama." She said
"Okay baby" he pulled out his phone
She was shaking from the pain
He rubbed her back and handed her the phone.
"Hello?" Her mama Jackie answered
"Hi mama" she smiled
"Hey sweetie!" She said
"I'm in labor" she said
"I'm on my way!" She said
Reba giggled. "Okay!" She smiled
"I love you." She said
"Love you" she smiled
Jackie smiled and hung up
Reba breathed and the doctor came in
"Hi." Reba said
"Hello" she smiled
"How far along am I?" She asked
"Let's check" she said
She nodded
They checked her "your almost there, 8 centimeters" she smiled
"Can I get the drugs please?" She asked
She shook her head no
"Why not?" She asked
"Because your to far along" she said
She just started crying in pain
Narvel comforted her. "Give her about 30 minutes and She'll be able to push" she smiled
"I swear, she's trying to kill me." She whimpered
"I'm not, I'm trying to help you" she said
"I meant the baby." She said
"Oh, her.... Well let me help with that, come here sweet angle, you want to come out of mommys belly?" She did some things to her belly that relieved all the pain, pressure point.
"Thank you." Reba said taking deep Breaths
"You've got a sweet little girl in there" she smiled
"I sure do." She smiled and a another contraction hit
"Breath in and then out and then in and then out" the doctor said
She did that the doctor told her and reached for Narvels hand
"Give it three more contractions and we'll start pushing" she smiled
She nodded
Narvel helped her through those three
Jackie Knocked on the door
"Hi mama!" She smiled
"Hey baby." She said
The doctor came in
"I need to push." She said
"Okay, okay let me put my gloves on and we'll get started" she said
She nodded
That's when Jackie noticed Narvel and didn't like the sight before her
"Mama?" She said
"Yes?" She said
"You okay?" She asked
"What is he doing here?" She spat
"Mama! He is my fiancé and her father." She said
"I hate him!" She said
"Mama!!" She said
Jackie walked out. Narvel looked down "I'm a jackass I know" he said
Jackie walked back into the room. "That's all I needed to hear. Thank you." She said
"You just wanted me to say I was a jackass?" He said hurt as he grabbed Rebas hand
"I just wanted to make you knew what you did was wrong." She said
"Of course it was wrong... But your like a mother to be and you just said you hated me" he said
"I'm sorry. I don't hate you." She hugged him tight
He hugged her and Reba yelled "I NEED TO PUSH!!!!" She yelled
The doctor came in ready to go
Reba was crying
"Baby it's okay." Jackie said
"GET OUT OF ME!" She said
Reba kissed her cheek
The doctor said the magic words "push!"
Reba started to push hard
Narvel held her hand and smiled watching her. "Your so amazing" he smiled kissing her sweaty forehead
"Thanks sweetie." She said
"Come on babe, let's have a baby" he smiled watching her start to push again
She bared down hard and pushed
"Your baby is starting to come!" The doctor
"Get her out!" She said
"Bare down, and push hard!" She said
She did what she was told
The doctor became worried "Reba I need you to listen to me and stop pushing" she said
"I can't!" She said
"I need you to!" She said
She stopped pushing. "What's wrong?"
"The cord is wrapped around her little neck" she said
"Hey it off her neck!" She said
"I'm trying!" She said
She was so scared
"Push!" She said
She pushed again
There was a little cry and the doctor smiled. "She's all set" she said holding the tiny body in her arms. She took her over to the scale
Reba was crying tears of joy
Narvel smiled and kissed her deeply. "Your so freaking amazing!" He said
"We have a daughter." She kissed him back
"She's so little!" He cooed
"She's perfect." Jackie smiled
"Mckenzie? That's her name... Mckenzie!" She said
"That's perfect baby!" He kissed her
She smiled big
"Middle name?" He asked
"You pick" she smiled as the doctor handed Kenzie back to Reba
"Jacqueline?" He smile
Jackie smiled. "Sure baby" she smiled looking down at the small baby in her arms. "She weighs 4 pounds 6 ounces" she smiled
"Mackenzie Jacqueline MCEntire Blackstock." Reba smiled
"She's beautiful" he smiled sitting down on the very edge of the bed right next to Reba
"Hi baby girl." Reba smiled
She poked her little hand out of her wrap.
"Hi pretty girl." She smiled
Narvel smiled and put his finger close to her hand.
The doctor walked back in
"Hi!" Reba smiled
"So I have some news." She said
"Yes?" Reba said
"So because she's under 5 pounds we need to keep you of you here until she gets there. It shouldn't take very long but, it's hospital policy. In the first couple of days she will lose a small amount of weight. That's completely normal. She will start to gain it back very quickly." She said
Reba looked at Narvel with tears in her eyes. "But... But I wanted to be out of here by then, I wanted to take my baby home" she said wiping her Tears away.
"It's shouldn't be much more then a couple days longer then you would be here anyways so she said
"Why couldn't I just go full term!" She started to cry and she tried to hide it.
"It's okay." Narvel soothed
"Go home, it's late, you won't be able to for a few days, one of us has to be able not to small when the baby cries" she said

"I'm not leaving." He said
"Baby, listen to me" she said

"Narvel, I don't have my things... Kenzie has nothing, no diapers, no clothes, and neither do I" she said
"Okay, I go home and pack some bags and then come back." He said

"I just want to take her home" she started to cry
"Oh baby don't cry. It's all gonna be okay." She soothed
"Why did she have to come early?" She choked out
"She's was ready to." She soothed
She looked at the whimpering baby on her chest
"Let's try to feed you." Reba said
"Honey your milk does not come in for a day or maybe two, you'll need to get the doctor with a little bottle" she said
"I know but there's something that's there now for her to eat. I forget the name of it. Colostrum." She said

Reba smiled and grabbed her plate. She followed them into the nursery and sat down in the rocking chair.
Narvel didn't notice her at first and he put Kenzie on the changing table and he leaned down and blew on her belly to get her to calm down before he started.
Kenzie giggled and smiled at Narvel
"That's the smile I fell in love with" he smiled
She smiled and flapped her arms around
