Where's My Daddy? - A Luke Hemmings Fanfiction

Chapter 11 - Lily is Here

December 2, 2013

I was now a little over 40 weeks. Lily was getting really big, and I wanted her out. I had been carrying her for over forty weeks, so she could come out any time she likes. I have been on bed rest for a few weeks now. I couldn't go to school or work or anything like that. I had to stay at home all the time. I felt bad for Jordyn because she had to do everything for me, but I apologized all the time and she said that it was alright, that she was there for me. I loved having a sister like that.

I was laying on the couch, watching tv, and I got tired, so I went back up to my bedroom and got into my bed. I laid down, hoped and prayed that Lily would come out soon, and fell asleep.

The next morning, I woke up because I felt something wet underneath me. My water had broken. I yelled for Jordyn, and she came running up to my room.

"What's the matter, Jenna?!" She said, out of breath because she ran so fast.

"I think my water broke..."

"Come on.. Let's go"

I got off my bed and walked down the stairs and to the car. I got into the passengers seat, then Jordyn into the driver's seat. She sped off to the hospital, and we were there within minutes. I couldn't walk well without support, so Jordyn let me lean on her shoulder and we walked into the hospital. The doctors took me into a room, and they said that my water had broken, and that I was almost fully dilated.

Within 30 minutes, my parents came with Jack, then Jessica came with her husband and Jaxon. I was fully dilated, and the doctors told me to push. I pushed once, as hard as I could. A second time, harder. The third time, the hardest. I still didn't hear cries yet. I pushed once more, then heard a few cries. The doctor informed me that her head was out. I pushed one more time the hardest I could, and the doctor lifted Lily up, then placed her on the cloth on my stomach. A nurse wrapped her in that cloth and took her to clean her off and all that stuff.

I got Lily back a few minutes later and they announced that she was 7 lbs 6 oz, 19 1/2 inches, and healthy. She had been born on the band's borthday. I held her in my arms, and she looked up at me for the first time. She reached her little arm out to me, opened her hand, and she grasped my finger. My mum walked over to see her.

"Hi precious little girl.." She cooed to Lily.

Lily looked at her, then back to me. "This is Grammy" I told her. She reached out to her Grammy, so she took her and held her.

She was held by everyone except Jaxon because he was too little. Then, the nurse came to me and asked for the parent's names.

"the mum: Jenna Emily Howells, the dad: um.." I didn't know if I should tell her or not, "Luke Robert Hemmings" I told her anyways.

She wrote them down, not saying anything. I couldn't let anyone see her birth certificate that didn't know she was Luke's. I had Jordyn take a picture of Lily and I, then sent it to Michael. He replied back immediately, and said, "she is so cute! Why don't you tell Luke?"

"It will mess up his and your career, Mikey!! He won't even have time for her, so he will feel bad and be slacking off the band" I replied.

He understood, and I just laid in my bed, admiring Lily. She reminded me so much of Luke: her blue eyes, blonde hair, the same lips, same cute little nose, everything Luke, Luke, Luke. I just looked at her, then started to cry a little. I missed Luke. I wanted Luke. I wanted to tell him about Lily and very single little thing he has missed throughout the pregnancy and the birth. I wanted to Skype him or FaceTime him and show him his daughter. I wanted Ashton and Calum to know, too. I wanted Liz and Andrew to know their granddaughter. I wanted Ben and Jack (weird coincidence, both of our brothers are named Jack) to know that they're uncles. I wanted Zoe (if you don't know who Zoe is, shame on you. She's Luke's adorable niece) to know she had a cousin.. But none of that could happen. I couldn't tell Luke. Nobody knew about Lily being mine and Luke's other than my family and really close friends. I couldn't tell anyone I hadn't already, unless some of the boys find out. Jordyn suddenly dropped down beside the bed and asked what was the matter.

"I just miss Luke." I told her, "I want him, but I can't have him.."

"Jenna, it's okay. Your family here for you"

"No.. She reminds me so much of him"

"Jen, I-"

"Don't- that's what Luke called me"

"Sorry, Jenna. Anyways. I'm sorry.. This must be really hard for you, having your lifelong friend become your boyfriend, get you pregnant, then go away, and leave you with your child that looks exactly like him"

"Yeah... It is terrible"

"Let's just look at the positive, Jenna. Lily is here, and she is so adorable. You and Luke should get back together and have more kids"

I laughed, "thanks Jordyn, but she's mostly Luke... Just Luke.."

"Yeah, that's why I said it"

I hit her arm, and she surrendered, "I'm kidding, I'm kidding!!!"

"You better be.." I laughed.

"Can I hold her again?" She asked.

"Of course"

I handed Lily to her, and she started talking to her. She said, "Hi Lily. I'm your aunt Jordyn. You're such a beautiful little girl.. You look just like your daddy." Lily giggled. She was so cute. I was really glad Lily was here. I wasn't glad Luke wasn't here. Today was filled with goods and bads.
