8 MONTHS LATER:

"Push Skye" the Doctor commanded, Jackson was by my side, his head down next to mine,

"Come on baby, you can do this" I nodded as he kissed my forehead,

"Lets meet this baby" Dr Lucas said,

FLASHBACK: 

"We're having a baby"

"Yes Jax, we are having a baby" his lips closed on mine enjoying the moment as I felt a single tear fall from his eye, he placed kisses all over my face, down my arms, sinking to his knees he placed kisses on my belly,

"Hello beautiful, Wow I am so happy you are here" he took a moment before he continued, a smirk on his face "Our family is a little crazy sometimes, but it is filled with so much love and god we will love you, Daddies little princess" He stood back up smiling at me,

"You know we don't know if its a girl" I looked at him, the smile never leaving his face,

"I am honestly happy with either Star, but thats my daughter in there" He kissed my ear pulling me in for a hug.

END OF FLASHBACK.

Jackson loved every minute of my pregnancy, and I knew almost instantly he would want me pregnant as many times as possible. In true Archer style he loved my body changing, watching my body expand as his child grew inside me, the larger I seemed to get the hornier Jackson became, and he loved pleasing me, worshipping my body, meeting my every desire.

Graham and Sophia were going strong, they had actually moved in together, they got a small house not to far from us, Soph cried when we told her we were expecting, She was so incredible happy for us. 

The boys were growing beautifully, Greyson had turned 5 this year and would be starting school next year, Asher was 4 and would be going to preschool 3 days per week come the new year.

Baby Archer 3.0 was due in December, I had never liked the idea of a baby in December, but the actual due date was December 8th and if they were anything like either of his or her older brothers hopefully they would make their entrance early.

Jacksons shop had been doing really well, I actually started working for him in the office, it was a good job for me, getting be off my feet for the long days as I got further into my pregnancy, plus it meant Jax could keep an eye on us which he was more than happy with.
We had stopped in at a cafe one day for lunch, I was seated at a table waiting for Jackson who was at the counter ordering our food when I heard a familiar voice,

"Skye, is that you?" Turning my head our found myself face to face with my Mother,

"Mum" I stared in shock "Dad", My eyes moved to look at my Father, standing I gave them a quick hug - I mean they are my parents,

"Baby, you're pregnant" My Mum spoke, her eyes filled with tears, I chuckled, my hands automatically going to my stomach,

"Last time I checked" I smiled, looking at the people in front of me, they looked tired and older, much much older,

"How are you Skye, How is everything?"

"Everything is going good, Dad" 

"Babe, I got chicken salt, I hope that's ok" Jackson stopped talking as he noticed the situation unfolding in front of him, his arms moving protectively around me,

"Ava, Steven" he reached out his hand shaking theirs,

"Jackson" my Mum replied "How are you?" My Dad not giving Jax a chance to reply,

"Well I guess that explains that then" He pointed to my belly,

"Steven" My Mother scolded him, he just shrugged.

"Here I thought you two might have come to your senses" Jax chimed in, My Mum answering him

"Excuse Me?" 

"Just leave it Jax" I brushed my fingers over his hand which was lovingly rubbing my belly,

"No babe, not gonna happen" he kissed my forehead, my Father rolling his eyes at the gesture,

"Guess we are getting another lecture", Jackson smirked as my Fathers mumbled words and pulled his phone from his pocket, unlocking it and passing it to my parents a picture of Jax with Greyson lit up the screen,

"See that, that little boy in the picture, that's your 5 year old grandson Greyson" his fingers touched the screen swiping it to the next image - one of Jax and Asher, both photo's I had taken recently when we had taken the boys to our spot at the beach for a picnic, "Thats Asher - he turned 4 this year" My Dad coughed, I think trying to suppress a tear, Mum on the other hand already had them streaming down his face. 

"Skye, they are beautiful" She sobbed and I nodded,

"Yes, they are"

"They look like Tyler" She added,

"Yes, they are definitely Archers" Jackson continued,

"These two boys, they don't know you exist, because of the choice you made - both of you. Steve, Ava - you have 1 daughter, strong, beautiful and an amazing mother, that is a credit to you, to how she was raised but then you pushed her away and now you are the ones missing out, on her on your two grandchildren and your third grand child which this amazing girl is growing in there. Your life will be incredibly lonely, ours will be filled with love and laughter"
I grabbed Jacksons face and pulled him to me kissing his lips,

"I love you so much Jax" he smiled sweetly at me

"I love you baby" 

"Lets go somewhere else to eat"

"Are you sure babe, aren't my babies hungry" he rubbed my belly while asking,

"We can hold out until the next cafe" I grabbed his hand and pulled him out the door, never looking back. We had walked around a block before he stopped and pulled me against his chest,

"Marry Me Star" He whispered,

"Yes, Jackson" I didn't even take a minute to process his question, smiling into his kiss as the thought of being married to Jackson, being my Best Friends wife came to my mind.

PRESENT DAY:

"You're almost there Skye, One more big push Ok" Dr Lucas spoke, Jacksons lips brushed my forehead,

"We're almost there baby, ready?" He placed his hand behind my back, his other holding mine as he helped me sit up,

"Ok Skye, We are going to count from 10 Ok, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, You're going really well Skye 7, 8, 9, 10" the piercing sound of my babies cry filled the room ad I fell backwards on the bed,

"You did it baby, I love you" Jackson kissed me softly,

"Mr. Archer would you like to cut the cord" Jax nodded moving over to Dr. Lucas a giant smile appearing on his face as his eyes met our baby for the first time,

"I told you it was going to be a girl", Dr. Lucas placed the baby on my chest, Jackson moving to the seat next to us placing a kiss on his daughters head,

"We have a daughter" I choked, looking at the beautiful creature in front of me,

"She is gorgeous" Jackson whispered "Like you" 

"Actually Jax, I think she is more like her Daddy"

After showering and fixing myself up a bit I made my way back into the hospital room, I paused in the doorway watching our newly born daughter cradled in her Daddy's arms.

"Are you done watching us Mummy" Making my was over I placed one hand on my daughter, the other on Jacksons cheek,

"Simply admiring the view Daddy, I have no doubt she will be her daddy's little princess"

"Yep, Daddy's princess and two older brothers - she will be just fine" I laughed

"Well before you lock her up and throw away the key, maybe we should give her a name"

"I like Kennedy" Jackson said,

"I love it - Kennedy Sophia Archer"
