Destiny Rewritten

Chapter 147

After their daughter was born, Dr. Gill wrapped her in a pink blanket and placed the newborn girl in Laurel's arms.

"She's perfect." Laurel said with a smile as she looked down at the little baby girl in her arms.

"You were fantastic honey." Oliver said as he kissed her forehead.

"She was well worth the pain." Laurel said as tears came to her eyes as Dr. Gill brought in the paperwork.

"Have you two chosen a name for your child?" Dr. Gill asked.

"We have, but before we announce it, we want our parents in here for the news." Oliver said and Dr. Gill nodded and sent a nurse off to retrieve the grandparents.

Moira instantly cooed at the sight of her new granddaughter and if it weren't for the fact that she was currently holding her own son in her arms, she probably would've tried to pry her out of Laurel's arms.

"She's adorable." Quentin said as he walked over to get a good luck at his new granddaughter.

"Thank you dad." Laurel said.

"So, what name have you chosen?" Dr. Gill asked.

"We decided to name her, Jasmine Dinah Queen." Laurel said.

"Still carrying on the tradition in a way." Quentin said.

"I didn't want her first name to be Dinah, since I want her to actually go by her first name." Laurel said and Quentin nodded.

"Well congratulations to you both." Walter said.

"Thank you. Mom, Walter, I hate to ask this, but do you mind if we have Raisa?" Oliver asked hopefully.

"She's all yours." Moira said immediately.

"Thank you." Oliver said.

"I'm sorry to interrupt, but both mom and baby need to rest." Dr. Gill said.

"Take care honey. We'll be back soon." Quentin said as he kissed his daughter's head.

"Thanks dad." Laurel said as her father and Oliver's parents left the room.

"Mr. Queen, will you please come with me to fill out the paperwork?" Dr. Gill asked.

"Of course." Oliver said as he followed Dr. Gill out to fill out Jasmine's birth certificate.

The next visitors they had were Samantha and William.

"I was surprised that we were the ones you wanted to see next." Samantha admitted.

"We wanted William to meet his little sister." Oliver said and William smiled.

"What's her name?" William asked.

"Jasmine." Laurel said.

"That's a beautiful name." Samantha said.

"I'm just glad that I was here for the birth of my daughter." Oliver said and Samantha understood what that meant.

"I am sorry I kept you from being there for William's birth." Samantha said.

"It's fine, I'm over it. What's important is that we have time together now." Oliver assured her.

"Speaking of William, how'd you like to hold your new baby sister." Laurel said to her stepson.

"Really?" William asked eagerly.

"Yeah of course." Oliver assured him.

"Come on let's go sit down." Samantha said as her son sat down on the couch and Laurel reluctantly handed Jasmine over to her father.

"Now be very careful." Oliver said he gently placed Jasmine her brother's arms.

"She's so little." William said in disbelief.

"So were you were born. She'll start growing soon." Samantha said.

"On another note, while William is more than welcome to spend time with us during the day, I think that it would be best to hold off on him sleeping over at our place until Jasmine can sleep through the night, for his sake." Oliver said.

"Agreed." Samantha said.

"So I can still hang out with you, I just can't sleep over right now?" William asked.

"Exactly. I don't want Jasmine's crying to wake you up. Plus, it gives us more time to get a room ready for you." Oliver said as he smiled and how happy his two children looked as Jasmine opened her eyes and smiled at her big brother.

"She smiled at me." William said.

"That's because she already knows what an awesome big brother you'll be." Oliver said with a smile.

"Oh by the way, did you know that Barry and Kara Allen are currently out in the waiting room, how do you know them?" Samantha asked.

"They're old friends of mine, they were actually a part of our wedding and perhaps more importantly, Kara's sister is marrying Sara." Oliver said.

"Oh, that explains that." Samantha said.

"Alex probably took their jet to get here and they decided to tag along." Laurel said, since Barry and Kara actually did own their own jet now.

"Speaking of Sara, I think we've denied her and Alex the chance to see their niece long enough." Laurel said as William handed his sister back to Oliver.

"We'll go tell them." Samantha said as she and William left the room.

"You've looked better." Sara said to her sister with a smile.

"Yeah well, unlike you, I married someone who can actually get me pregnant." Laurel said.

"What about you guys, think you might ever have kids?" Oliver asked.

"We talked about that extensively when we first got engaged and while it won't be quite as soon as you guys, but yeah, someday, though we'll probably adopt." Alex said.

"Less painful that way." Sara said.

"Be quiet before I deny you your niece." Laurel said with a smile, even as she handed Jasmine over to Sara.

"What's her name?" Alex asked.

"Jasmine." Oliver said.

"She's got your eyes." Sara said to Laurel.

"Mom said the same thing." Laurel said with a smile.

After Sara and Alex left, the final people to visit them were Barry and Kara.

"You guys did not have to come all this way." Oliver said.

"We wanted to. Besides, we sort of jumped straight from our honeymoon back into our jobs, so this was kind of a relief." Kara said.

"Sara said you had a family emergency?" Laurel asked.

"Yeah, one of the super variety." Kara said and they got the drift.

"I don't think I've ever seen you this happy before man." Barry said to Oliver.

"What can I say, I guess becoming a father has had that effect on me. I'm sure you'll figure that out yourself someday." Oliver said.

"Yeah, someday." Barry said as he thought of Nora.

"Anyways, I'm actually glad that you guys are here, since there's something important we wanted to ask you." Laurel said.

"And that is?" Kara asked.

"While we have plenty of family, in the event that something should happen to basically all of us, we want you two to be Jasmine's godparents." Oliver said.

"We'd be honored." Barry said and Kara nodded her agreement.

"Good." Laurel said with a smile.
