The Secret.

The Births.

Ainsley:

July 10th, 2016. 7:11 am.

Ainsley is in a dead sleep when all of a sudden, she feels a heavy pressure on her lower stomach. She frantically, sits up on her bed and removes her blanket. 

Her water broke.

"Shit." she worries.

It's show time.

She wakes up Matt.

"Matt!"

"What? What's wrong?"

"My water broke?" she moves the blanket out of his way and shows him what she seen.

"Shit!"

"That's what I said!"

"Alright, let me go get your mom!" 

...................

At the hospital:

Doctor: You have to push Ainsley.

Ainsley: I can't it hurts! 

She whimpers in pain.

"Matt!" 

"I'm here baby. I'm here. I'm not going anywhere."

"It hurts so bad, Matty."

"I know. I know. Just push. A couple more pushes and he is here."

The doctor chimes in, "Ainsley! JUST TWO MORE!"

"I can't! I can't!"

Matt throws his hands on his head, he begins to pace around the room. Claire consoles him then, turns her attention to her daughter.

"Ainsley Nicole. I was in the same pain 17 years ago. I was doing the same things you are. It hurts. I know it does, I didn't want to push either! However, I knew if I didn't push you out I could have lost you. Do you want to lose little Matt?"

"NO!"

"THEN PUSH!"

"OKAY!" squeals Ainsley.

She begins to push. Harder and harder. Screaming between breaths. She was in so much pain. She let out a big AHHHHHH and within seconds, she had a healthy baby boy. There she is holding this little body that she has just created with the help of her loving boyfriend.

She and Matt cry while they take the baby away to clean him up. Matt kisses her sweaty forehead and assures her she did a good job.

"You did it, girl!"

"Thanks, Mama. That was the hardest thing I have ever had to do."

"I know baby, but it's done and over with now. You're healthy. The baby is healthy and so handsome."

"Did you get a picture, Matt?"

"Yeah, I did. He is perfect." Matt shows her the picture. She grabs his phone and strokes it.

"Look at my little man man." smiled Ainsley. "He is so perfect."

The nurse walks back in holding a little tiny body wrapped in a small blue blanket.

She looks at Ainsley and says, "Here you, Mommy."

Ainsley grabs her baby and looks right into his deep brown eyes.

"He looks just like Matt." said Claire.

"Oh, go figure." started Ainsley. "I do all the hard work just to have him look like you." she laughed.
