The Next Step: Jiley later on

Chapter 37 The New Arrival

A/N Comment right here what you think James and Riley's baby is. Boy or girl? 😁

A few weeks later

Riley's POV

"Hey Riley," Dr. Bree says as she comes in. "Hey" I smile. "So do you have everything ready? You will have this baby probably under a week." She asks.
"Yes we have everything ready. I just don't have the hospital bag yet." I tell her. "That's great Riley." Bree says and starts her normal routine and by the time she's done she shows me my baby. "Can you tell if it is a boy or girl?" I ask. "Yes I know but it's because I have a trained eye, But I have some news Riley." She says. "Ye..Yes?" I stutter. "No need to worry but baby's head is on top and not on the bottom. It is hard to make the baby turn because your so close to your due date but there's a chance that the baby does flip and everything will go as planed but if the baby doesn't flip you will end up having surgery." She tells me. "Um oh." I sigh.
"Don't worry Riley." She smiles and I leave it at that.

Everything else goes great and Bree just tells me how the next few weeks are going to go and about false labor pains, etc.

While eating supper with James, I brought up the thing that Bree had told me about. "So, Bree told me that the baby is on top and not at the bottom so if he/she doesn't flip i will have to have a C-section." I say scared. "Riley, don't be scared. A lot of women have C-sections." He says. "That doesn't make me feel better." I whine. "I know but it's possible." He says taking my hands in his. "We should head to bed." He says. I agree and head up to pack my hospital bag before I go to bed.

When morning came I felt so sore and stiff. I couldn't move very well but this was the last day I would go to the studio before the baby is born. I carefully walk downstairs and eat some breakfast even if I'm not that hungry.

After, James and I drive to the studio and prepare for the dancers to come and practice for Regionals.

They arrive and we get started right away. I watch the dancers preformed all the Regionals numbers until I felt funny. "Riley, are you ok?" "Umm yea i will be right back." I tell James and leave.

When I reach the washroom I felt wet. My water broke and I felt pain in my lower abdomen. I quickly grab my phone and call James. "James, my water broke." I tell him. A few seconds later James opens the washroom door. "Ok let's go." He says and helps me to studio A. He sends the dancers home and we drive home and pick up the overnight bag and call people.

If you don't like hospital scenes I suggest you skip. There's not a lot of detail but the typically scenes. 

It has been 4 1/2 hours since my water broke. Currently I am listening to the moniter go *beep* *beep* *beep* while siping on water. James kept coming in and out of the hospital room. About every 5 minutes I have a contraction. I just have to breathe through it. They said that the baby did flip on its own so I don't have to have a C-section, Which I'm relived.

My thoughts get interrupted when Debra and James come in. "How are you feeling?" Debra asks. "Miserable." I reply. I hear James chuckle. "What's so funny?" I snap. He looks a little surprised. "Nothing." He says and leaves. "Sweetie, James is a guy, don't get mad, he doesn't know." Debra tells me. "I know." I sigh. "I just want this baby to come already." I say mostly to myself. "Do you need anything?" She asks. "No but can you go get Emily or Matty?" I ask. Debra nods and leaves the room.

A few minutes later Matty comes in. "Hey sis." He says sitting down on the bed. "Hi." I reply. "How are ya feeling?" He asks. I just stare at him. "That bad huh?" He says. I nod and Emily comes in as well. "Hey Ri." She says. I wave back and talk to the both of them for a little bit.
