Erika: What even is the time?

Pam: 4:56

Erika: No wonder I'm so tried!

Jake: Have a sleep.

He sits down on a chair in the corner. He sips on his coffee.

Erika: I'll just end up waking up not long after.

I hold onto the bed railing as my contraction starts. My mom holds my hand this time.

It's 7:30 now. Erika's has a little more sleep then before but still not much. Shannon's here now, she's getting little shots every now and then. Erika's on her phone texting her dad at the moment letting him know what's going on. A small knock is at the door Maya walks in.

Maya: Just checking on you Erika. Everything okay?

Erika: best it can be

Maya: *smiles* Lisa should be here in a second.

A few minutes later Lisa walks in. She tells Erika what she's gonna do and she checks how dilated she is.

Lisa: Making progress Erika! You're at a 6! I don't usually see many patients move this fast. So have you decided on a epidural?

Erika: I think I'm gonna do it.

Lisa: Okay, I'll bring the paperwork in and then we will get started with that.

They're putting the epidural in Erika right now. I'm standing in front of her I'm holding her hands tightly while they're putting it in her back.

Maya: She doesn't have much further Erika you're doing good!

Jake: *whispers* Come on Rik.

Lisa: and done, awesome job Erika.

Erika takes a deep breath. She let's go of my hand. I kiss her forehead.

Lisa: So no laying on your back until Maya tells you. I recommend laying on your side and sleeping as it's should start to take most of the pressure off of you soon.

She nods.

Erika: Thank you

Lisa: No problem

She walks out. Maya helps Erika lay on her side. She puts the blanket over her. I sit down on the chair. My phone starts ringing. Gio. I answer. I stand up and start walking out of the room.

Jake: Gio?

I open the door.

Gio: Hey Jake, where are you your meetings starts in twenty minutes!

Jake: Oh shit. I'm gonna need you to cancel everything on my schedule for the next four days. Erika's in labor!

Gio: Congratulations my g! Should I reschedule everything or wait?

Jake: Reschedule So they don't get angry.

Gio: Okay. Good luck!!

Jake: Thank you, Bye

Gio: Bye

I hand up and walk back in the room. I put my phone on the table.

Maya: You can fill that whiteboard out there if you want Jake.

I nod.

Maya: I'll be back later!

She leaves.

Shannon: I'll get some shots of you writing it Jake

I nod. She gets her camera out. I grab the whiteboard marker. I open it.

Mom: Erika Costell

Dad: Jake Paul

Gender: Girl & Boy

Baby Name: Ella Grace & Jaxon Michael

I put the marker down. Shannon stops recording.

I'm at 8 cm now and the pain isn't as painful but still quite painful. Everyone is just sitting around talking. All my worries are basically gone and I'm just excited to meet these babies! Jakes phone starts ringing.

Jake: It's Anthony

He answers. Him and Rocky must be here.

Jake: Hey bro. Okay, I'll come let you in. Bye.

He puts his phone in his pocket.

Jake: Anthony and Rocky are here so I'm gonna let them in.

He kisses my forehead.

Jake: Do you want anything?

Erika: No thanks

He smiles and leaves.
