4 Months Later 

Imogen's POV

"Come on Imogen just one more push! you can do it!" 

"No, I Can't Do It! It's Too much! I Need my Husband!" I scream at the nurses 

"It's ok Love, I'm sure when he comes back he is going to be so proud of you," One of the nurses said as she was wiping the sweat off my face 

Joe and the rest of the cast have gone to the Golden Globes and I'm stuck here having a baby without anyone to call. I was alone. Caity had the Boys while I had to drive myself to the hospital. Who knew in a million years will I be driving myself to the hospital while I am in labour. 

"Imogen it's now or Never! PUSH" 

I gave in and took a big gasp of air and started pushing until I heard the little sounds of a newborn cry. The nurse put my new daughter onto my chest as they cleaned her up 

"Hello, baby girl. I wish dad was here with us right now" I couldn't help but start crying 

"Do you have a name for her?" Asked on the nurses 

"Yes we do, Briar Rose Mazzello" 

"Thats a very sweet name. Congratulations"

***

Briar and I are in our recovery room and I was watching the Golden Globes. Joe Had no idea that I had given birth without him he is going to freak out. I had Briar in my arms and I couldn't take my eyes off her. She had Joe's Nose, all my children do. 

"And the Golden Globe goes to... Bohemian Rhapsody!" 

I looked up at the TV in shock, Bohemian Rhapsody Just won a golden globe, Joe must be so happy right now and too think I was going to call him and tell him I am giving birth would have ruined the whole night for him 

"Look your daddy was in that movie... So proud of him" I gave Briar a kiss on her forehead 

I Put Briar in the baby crib that was next to me and then to my surprise I was getting a facetime call from Joe 

"Hello?"

"Gen! Baby! Are you watching?" 

"Yes I am congrats, I knew you guys could do it" 

"Are you home?" 

"Um No" I started to get nervous because I didn't know what to say 

"Are the boys with you?" 

"No, they are with Caity" 

"Gen why are you whispering I can't hear you!" 

"Um..." And then just my luck Briar Starts crying, The look on Joe's face was unreal 

I put my phone down on the bed next to me with Joe still on and I took Briar out of the crib

"It's an Ok baby, Mummy's here" 

"Gen?" I heard Joe say 

I sat up and Briar on my legs and picked up my phone again 

"where are you?" He asked me 

"Hi Gen!" Gwilym Came onto the screen 

"Hi, Gwil how are you?" 

"I'm good" 

"How is Rey doing?" 

"Rey, yeah she here with me she has gone to the bathroom, but the good" 

"Thats good" Gwil then went away and I could see Joe again 

Briar had fallen asleep again so I put her back in her crib and started talking to Joe again 

"Are you ok?" He asked 

"Not really" 

"What's wrong?" 

"I'm Not ruining you, Night Joe, please go have some fun, I'll see you in soon" 

"Gen, If somethings wrong and your not telling me it's going to be rushing through my brain the whole night and I won't have any fun" 

There was a knock at the door and the door opened and then the lights turned on 

"Hi Imogen, Just making sure you ok?" said one of my nurses 

"I'm fine thank you, Just talking to My husband"

"Oh how wonderful, I just came to drop off some painkillers because of the pain you said you were feeling"

"Thank you" 

"Not a problem. How is little Briar going?" 

"Good, I dont think she likes to sleep," I said laughing 

"Thats normal dear, get some rest ill come by in the morning and check up on both of you again" 

"Thank You, Goodnight" 

The nurse turned the lights off again and closed the door softly

"Sorry about that Joe" 

"It's ok... Are you in the hospital?" 

"Ok, Byeeee!"

I hung up before he could say anything but then he called again and I answered 

"Gen! Are you at the hospital?" 

"what if i am?" 

"I'll leave this party!" 

"No, you won't!" 

" so you are in the hospital! Gen! why didn't you call me?!"

"Becuase I didn't want to ruin your night!" 

"I dont care about a party! I care about you! Is the baby alright? are you alright?" 

"Joe, calm down please!" 

"Gen are you in labour?" 

"Joe I gave birth already!" 

"You did what?" 

"I had the Briar about 5 hours ago!" 

"Gen, Im so sorry" Joe suddenly went soft 

"It's Not your fault, Joe" 

"I should have been there with you" 

"Joe, I wish you were here with me but let me tell you i am so proud off you right now and im so happy that all you hard work has payed well!" 

"Gen, Im coming to the hospital, which one are you at?" 

"The one closets to home, But please wait a little dont come now, ill be fine" 

"No, I am coming... Ill see you soon" 

"Bye Joe"
