Chapter 12:
Bernie, Rosalie, Marilyn, Kirsten, Hayley and Eric where waiting in the waiting room, when Matthew and Caitlin entered, still in their wedding outfits.
"How are they"? Matthew asked.
"Well Ng is in labor right now, they went inside 15 min ago". Bernie informed.
Another 5 min later Flynn and Sally came back.
"They're still inside"? Flynn asked and the rest nodded.

Shemar's POV:
Just then I came out smiling from ear to ear and with tears in my eyes.
"It's a girl". Was all i said before i cried on my mother's shoulder, but it were tears of hapiness.
Everyone cheered.
"Can you wait another 30 min, they will bring Ng to her room, otherwise you can come back tomorrow". I said to his family and friends.
"We'll wait". Bernie said and the rest nodded.
"What about your wedding guys"? I asked Matthew and Caitlin.
We'll go back, but not now, they know where we are and why, this means too much for us".
"Thank you guys".

Ng's POV:
30 min later I was washed and changed of clothes in my room when the whole gang entered with Shemar.
They all whispered 'hey' to me and took place around the bed and in the room.
"Everyone meet Jazz-elle Moore- Rivers". I told everyone and they all cooed and smiled.
Marilyn got tears in her eyes when I asked her if she wanted to hold her first grandchild.
"Oh Shemar, Ng, you've made me the proudest grandma in the world". Marilyn said.

Shemar's POV:
"Everything went so fast, the first contractions last night and now both a mum and dad". Flynn said.
"She's so cute, Shemar". Kirsten said.
"She is, erm Kirst, we want to ask you something"? I told my friend who held Jazz-elle.
"What do you want to ask"? Kirsten asked, looking up from the new born, to me.
"You want to ask it babe... babe"? I said.
We all looked at Ng who fell asleep with a little smile on her face.
"Poor thing, she must be exhausted, she haven't slept properly for the last 24 hours". Caitlin said.
"Let's go back to the party, we'll be back tomorrow". Matthew whispered, he said goodnight to everyone and left with his new bride.
**********
"Shall we tell our friends"? Caitlin asked her husband as they entered the beach house.
Matthew nodded and the two of them went to the DJ.
"Ladies and gentlemen, may we have your attention please"? Matthew asked the guests, everyone turned and went quiet.
"We are happy to announce to you that our friends, Ng Rivers and Shemar Moore, became the proud parents of a baby-girl named Jazz-elle, who was born just an hour ago, mother and daughter, are doing fine"!!! Caitlin almost yelled.
Everyone cheered and clapped.
"Let's make a toast," Matthew said, signing the cameraman to turn to him.
"Shemar, Ng although you're not here, we want to make a toast to you guys,"
Then he turned to the guests and said.
"To Shemar and Ng, congratulations with your baby-girl.... to Jazz-elle"!! Matthew said.
"To Jazz-elle"!!! Everyone repeated and raised their glass in the air.

Ng's POV:
Three hours later I woke up, because I heard Jazz-elle crying, I opened my eyes and saw Shemar talking to his daughter.
"You're hungry aren't you, let's wake up mummy". He smiled.
"I'm awake love". I said, Shemar came over and laid our daughter in my arms.
"You want me to call a nurse"? Shemar asked me while I lifted my T-shirt.
"No thanks were ok". I smiled. Shemar came over and sat on the bed.
"I couldn't be happier now that I have two beautiful women in my life". He whispered and kissed me on my head.
**********
The next day, Shemar's family, Bernie, Rosalie, Matthew, Caitlin, Hayley, Eric, Thomas, Paget, Sara, Joe, Kirsten and her boyfriend, A.J. and her husband and Jake and Shelby passed by.
They we're all happy for us and told us Jazz-elle was a beautiful baby.
Her hair was black, her skin was like cream and she had brown, almost black eyes.
The same day, they brought in the birth cards and the birth candy.
By the end of the day Shemar and me were exhausted but happy, we had lots of visits and the next day we expected some more.
Luckily Jazz-elle slept the whole time; she opened her eyes now and then, looked at the person close to her and closed her eyes again.
**********
A few days later we brought our baby-girl home.
I was surprised to see lots of our friends standing in our garden.
The whole house and the garden were decorated with ribbons and lots of balloons.
In the middle of the garden above a table hanged a banner with the words 'welcome home Ng and Jazz-elle' painted on it.
They all admired Jazz-elle and some gave me some parental advice.
**********
Later on when Jazz-elle was fed and asleep in her bed, we all sat around the huge table in the garden, where two big cakes were cut and had coffee and tea.
After the cake it was time to open the presents, Shemar and me received from the guests.
The first one was a small bath in light blue, clothes, teddies, drink bottles followed.
Four hours later I heard Jazz-elle crying and went to feed her.
