Without You Is How I Disappear

BANDIT!

{Still Gerard's P.O.V}

"What will we call her?" Lyn-z asked softly.

"Don't you like baby girl Way?" I asked jokingly. She smirked but then returned to being serious. It was the look she gave me that now really wasn't the time to be funny especially after that seahorse remark I made earlier.

"Lucy?" I said.

"She doesn't feel like a Lucy." Came back. "How about Beth?" I think once she said it out load she didn't like it that much.

"Bella?" I said.

"Hayley?" She replied

"Ellie?" Thinking about what I'd just said, I realised she didn't look like an Ellie. "Lola?" I said suggesting another name out of turn, "Lola Way, fits nicely!"

"I was thinking a name that wasn't so common."

I was kinda sad that my suggestion of Lola had been trampled on but I had to move on from that quickly. I'll find another use for it though I thought.

"Uncommon, okay. Well urmm. . . ." I began thinking.

Seconds had passed as we stared at her.

"Bandit!" It was like a eureka moment. Lyn-z yelled it out as our daughter began to close her eyes and drift into a sleep, "Bandit." She whispered trying not to be so loud this time.

"Bandit, Bandit Way. Yeah. Okay. It's great. How about middle name Lee? Bandit Lee Way?" I suggested

"BeUtiful Ge! I love it!"

I reached into the bag we brought with us and pulled out a small rabbit teddy I found while I was on tour a few months ago. I held it up to the sight of one of the nurses without Lyn-z knowing what I'd got so I could check it was safe to give to Bandit. The nurse nodded as I removed the tags.

My hand leant over the plastic side to the bed and over to where Bandit was tucked into her mothers arms and laid it beside the blankets she was wrapped in. Lyn-z smiled.

"Gerard. . .?"She said

I was confused and worried something might be wrong so I leaped up from the chair and asked "what's up? Are you okay? Is Bandit? What's up? Tell me."

"Gerard, all I was going to say is that I was tired."

I was embarrassed to my leap of worry. "Oh okay, yeah sure. Ermm. . ." I took Bandit and the rabbit off her and gently lowered myself back onto the chair. I took another photo of my little baby girl and text mikey to go to my house with the spare key I'd given him and to bring over the car seat I forgot to grab in a hurry and anything else I thought we might need.

After about an hour, mikey was back with the stuff we needed and by the end of the day, we were back home.
