In Drummer Heaven

Adaya Grace Lee

September 23, 1991

Tommy

Darcy went over her due date of September eighteenth. When our little baby finally decided to come it was three minutes after two in the morning. We called Nikki and Dani because they are the god parents but we didn't bother to wake everyone else up. Nikki and Dani spent the time in the waiting room with our first born, Avery.

Adaya Grace Lee was born on the twenty third of September at three minutes after two in the morning. Adaya weighed just over seven pounds and was twenty inches long. She was born with big blue eyes and dark hair. She's not going to look like her sister but again Adaya is the perfect combination of Darcy and I. Adaya was named after her aunts who all share the middle name Grace but named Adaya to follow the 'A' name thing.

Our youngest daughter is wrapped up in a pink blanket in my beautiful wife's arms. I sit behind her on the bed and look in awe at our daughter. She's beautiful just like Avery is and I can't believe that I had anything to do with her being made. I mean I obviously had a big thing to do with making both of our daughters but they're the most beautiful things I've ever laid eyes on, they have to get that from Darcy.

I kiss my wife's cheek and the corners of her mouth turn up and she smiles. I wrap my arms a bit tighter around her and I put my chin on her shoulder.

"I'm so proud of you, Darcy." I whisper in her ear. "She has your eyes." I say as Adaya's blue eyes open again.

"She has your hair, babe." Darcy says softly and I smile.

"I can't deny that." I laugh quietly.

"Want to hold your daughter, daddy?" My wife smirks and I kiss her lips quickly.

"Of course, I do." I say and gently take Adaya from Darcy's arms. "Come see daddy, baby girl."

I hold Adaya in my arms gently and I smile at her. Much like her mother and her older sister Adaya is a perfect little angel. She's going to be absolutely stunning when she grows up, again like Avery. I can tell I'm going to have to strike fear into the hearts of teenage boys when it comes to my daughters dating. Actually Darcy is psycho so the teenage boys should be more worried about my little hundred pound wife.

"We makes cute kids." Darcy says and knocks her head into my arm.

"We do make cute kids." I agree. "I hope Avery doesn't get too jealous of the baby."

"God I hope not." She says worried. "I mean she is still pretty young to be a big sister."

"We're worrying over nothing." I say. "Avery is going to be a great big sister."

"I'm sure you're right." Darcy says and kisses my cheek. "I love you."

"I love you too." I say and kiss her lips quickly.

Nikki

I bounce Avery on my knee and she giggles. I smile and kiss her hair making her study me with those big brown eyes that she shares with her father. Dani is sleeping in the chair beside me.

"Uncy Nik, why?" Avery asks and I smile.

"Because I can." I say and she shakes her head.

"No." She states and I laugh, that's still her favourite word.

"Are you sure?" I ask and she nods. "I'm not."

"No, Uncy Nik." Avery says and I laugh.

"You know, your mommy is having your little sister." I tells her and she smiles.

"Mama havin' babay." She says and I nod. "I gonna be big sister."

"Yeah, sweetie, you're going to be a big sister." I tell her and she looks around.

"Dada!" Avery screams and I look up.

Tommy is walking towards the waiting room and I elbow Dani who wakes up. The drummer walks up to us and he grins.

"You're a daddy again?" I ask and he nods happily.

"Want to meet her?" Tommy asks and steals his daughter away from me. "Wanna see your little sister?"

"Yeah!" Avery yells and we laugh.

We walk back to the room and I see Red holding a little pink bundle and I smile. I kiss the top of her head as Tommy puts Avery on the bed beside Red.

"Who's that?" The little redhead wonders.

"This is your little sister." Darcy says sweetly. "Her name is Adaya Grace Lee."

"She pretty!" Avery says loudly and we all shush her. "I want to keep her." She says in a loud whisper.

"I guess that works out then, huh?" Tommy laughs and his wife looks up at me.

"Want to hold your goddaughter, man whore?" Red asks with a laugh and I grin.

"I'd love to." I admit and scoop her up from Red's arms.

The baby is fast asleep in my arms and I can tell she's going to be a knockout. Adaya has little bits of dark hair like her father but I pity the child if she looks like Tommy. The baby opens her eyes and her eyes open to show Darcy's beautiful blue eyes and I smile.

"You're going to be pretty like your mama, not pretty like your daddy." I say quietly and bounce her gently.

I go to look back over to Darcy and Tommy but they're both asleep on the bed. I laugh and walk over to Dani. I hand off Adaya to her godmother and scoop Avery off the bed. I sit in a chair with my oldest godchild on my lap.

"We gotta be quiet, mommy and daddy are sleeping." I say and she nods.

Darcy

When I open my eyes I see Tommy holding our oldest daughter over the little crib that our youngest is in. They're both looking at Adaya and I smile.

"Daddy, I love her." Avery says quietly.

"I love Adaya, I love you, and I love your mommy." My husband says.

"What about Uncy Nik?" She asks and Tommy laughs.

"Yeah, I love him too." Tommy laughs.

I won the lottery with him and I won the lottery with our daughters. I'm the luckiest girl on this earth. I don't even care if I never play again.

The End.
