2 days after Maggie's baby, Noelle, was born I was sitting with Maggie and I he baby. We were talking about names. I liked the name Brooklyn and McKenna. Maggie liked Sophie and Madison. But I just couldn't decide. I don't even know why we were only talking about girls names when I could have a boy. We had begun to talk about how our kids would be best friends and they would grow up together. Then reality slapped is in the face. We hadn't been out side in so long. We were almost unaware that the dead were roaming the earth. We continued to talk hoping our good intentions would kill the dead for good. I was in mid sentence when I felt a sharp pain on the underside of my stomach. I yelped.
"Cam are you ok?!" Maggie asked getting up and putting the baby in the crib Daryl and Glenn had made.
"Yah no I'm fine I... I'm fineeee!" I screamed out as another pain hit my stomach.
"Cam I think your going to go into labor soon lets get you in bed and then I'll go get daddy and Daryl."
"Mags help me to the bed." I pleaded. She grabbed my hand and helped me up. I gripped her hand tightly as I walked to the bed. The pain had eased up a little. I laid down and Maggie left to get Hershil and Daryl. I had another contraction while she was gone and I screamed out in pain. My stomach was so huge I could barley stand up straight. Daryl came running in and sat next to me. He put some pills in my hand held a water bottle for me while I took them. Shock, fear, and hope flickered in his eyes. I smiled weakly and he did the same. And then 3 hours later.......it happened.... Without being able to feel anything. Hershil delivered my baby. Daryl said that the pills he gave me were the same as an epidural. That's why I couldn't feel and thing. I heard the baby cry and was amazing.Hershil handed the baby to Daryl and began to take his gloves off when he noticed something. He gasped and slipped the gloves back on and moments later another precious baby cry filled the room. Hershil looked shocked as Maggie wrapped the baby and cradled it. Hershil seemed fearful and I knew something was wrong. Hershil delivered ANOTHER baby. But I didn't hear a cry. Fear and panic passed through me. Hershil stoluck his finger in the baby's mouth. He pulled out a lot of slime and goo. Then I heard a deep breath in and I heard a cry. 3 children. I just gave birth to 3 children. I smiled and looked at Daryl and the same look of protection that had crossed over Glenn's eyes crossed over his.
"2 boys and a girl. Any names?" Daryl looked at me.
"Y..yah Bailey for my baby girl. Jason for my first baby boy. And...."
"Peanut!" Daryl said.
"No Daryl!" I laughed "Daryl we can't name our baby peanut!" I laughed again and he chuckled.
"I was thinking more like.... Daryl Jr." I smiled. I was holding Daryl Jr. In my arms. He was gurgling like a happy baby. I was a happy women living in a very unhappy world.
