My due date was four days ago. Is something wrong with me? "Louis, do you think something's wrong?" I worry, taking a bite of my spear shaped pickle. "No. I just think, she likes it so much in there she just doesn't want to come out." He steals a bite of my pickle. "I hate being fat!" I scream from the living room couch. "Riley! Shut up with your pregnant people problems. I've got bigger problems." Louis jokes. "And what would those be?" I role my eyes. "Those awkward teenage years. Puberty. Dating. I'm-I'm" he states. "Being a typical father. Don't worry Lou. If anything, I'll be there to handle puberty. Dating is just another part of growing up. I'm just as scared as you are." I interrupt. A sharp pain shoots through my lower abdomen. "Louis." I whimper. He places his left hand on my back and hair right one on my stomach. "Has your water broken?" He asks worridly. I nod my head. "Fellows, it's time!" He yells.

"You are only seven centimeters dilated. It'll be about two more hours until you can start pushing." The nurse says before walking away. "Louis. It's too much pain." I cry. Louis whipes my tears. "Shh. It's just another contraction. Just relax your body. Do you wanna talk about baby names?" He asks. I shake my head. "No. We can just wait for the moment. Oww! Louis get me the epidural." I order. He nods and runs into the hallway.

"One more push Riley. You can do it. She's almost here." Louis assures I give one more final push and hear cries. "She's beautiful Riley." Louis kisses my head. I cry as they put the small baby wrapped in a pink blanket in my arms. "Hello. I'm your Mummy." She opens her eyes and wraps her fingers around my thumb. "She's got your eyes Lou. She looks just like you." I grip his hand. They take her away to give her her shots and stuff and a nurse wheels her in a few minutes later. "Okay. What is this little cuty's name?" She asks with a clipboard and pen in her hand. "Lyssa Mazie Tomlinson." Louis and I agree on. She nods her head and lets us write her name on the clipboard. She gives Lyssa to Louis and he sits beside me on the hospital bed. "So. Is she beautiful?" Harry asks, walking into the room. I nod and notice Louis looking down at the small infant sleeping in his arms. "I can't believe I helped create something this small and fragile." He whispers. "I'm just glad you stick around to wait for her. Nobody ever stays this long." I admit. He looks me in the eyes. "There is no place I'd rather be than right here with you two." He kisses my head and then Lyssa's. "Hey Lou. Can I talk to you out in the hall?" Harry asks. He nods and hands off Lyssa to me.

I step out into the hallway with Harry and give him a confused look. "Lou. I'm proud of you. You cleaned up your act to stay with Riley and Lyssa. That shows how great of a guy you are and how you've dedicated your life to being with Riley and Lyssa." He compliments. I smile to myself and remember Riley singing to her stomach at night. I remember how at Christmas she put a bow on her stomach and I put one on my head. I was her Christmas present and her and Lyssa were mine. "I was so scared Harry. I was scared something would go wrong in there and I'd be alone. I couldn't bear to lose them both." I admit. He holds my left shoulder with us right hand and sighs. "Yep you're a Dad." He smiles before leading me back into the room. I see Lyssa asleep in Riley's arms. I smile at the beautiful sight. I sit on the edge of the bed and push strands or Riley's hair behind her ear. "You're beautiful. The both of you are beautiful. I don't know how someone like me could ever get someone like you. I've hurt you. I almost killed Lyssa. I've done drugs and left you. I'm sorry I've messed up and I never want to mess up again. Riley, will you Marry me?" I ask, pulling the gray box out of my pocket and knealing down in front of her. She cover her mouth with her hand and nods. I take her hand and slip the ring on her left hand ring finger.
