Living In Ibiza - Chapter 15 / Chloe
Becker's POV
Two weeks away from Becky's due date and things have been going ever so smoothly since we moved back to London. Me and Jess have been working at the ARC and we brought a house, not the one Jess seen the day we decided we were going to move back here because pictures can be deceiving there was so much work that needed to be done on that house and we didn't have the time to do everything but we did find a house that was 15 minutes away from the ARC, it had three bedrooms and all of the rooms in the house were decent sizes, the nursery had been decorated and at the moment Becky was staying the spare room.
Becky had decided that when she had the baby she was going to go back to Ibiza and sign over all rights to me and Jess, like an adoption. I wasn't really that surprised that she didn't want anything to do with the baby for the main fact that she admitted to both me and Jess that she missed the life she lived in Ibiza before she got pregnant. We promised her that we would send her E-Mails with photos and everything just to keep her updated on everything that she was missing and if she wanted to ignore our E-Mails then hat was down to her.
Every night though when I went to sleep I still felt guilty for having this baby with Becky because this baby was going to be a constant reminder of the time that I cheated on Jess and I love this baby with all my heart but I still feel so guilty for the whole thing. I know Jess has forgiven me for what happened and is excited as I am to bring up this baby but the feeling doesn't leave.
We had been discussing baby names for the past couple of months and we asked Becky for her opinion on a name but she said all decisions on names and everything was down to me and Jess as we were the parents and after much discussion we had come up with the name Chloe Rose for a girl and Jack Archie for a boy, Jess came up with the girls name whilst I did the boys name. I never realised how hard it was to chose a name for someone it was bloody hard work! We argued over names and we must have gone through at least 100 names before we both decided on the names we both liked.
Jess had been for tests since her surgery and the doctors told us that there is no reason now that Jess couldn't have children of her own there was now nothing wrong with her and she was as capable of having children as Abby or Emily where but because of this baby nearly here we decided that we were going to wait until the baby is at least 18 months old before we start trying for another one, I wanted to wait longer but Jess said she wanted the children to be brought up in similar ages.
Walking into the kitchen I seen Jess making something to eat, she was wearing her dressing gown and was clearly tired "Why don't you go to sleep? You've been up since five this morning and it's now nearly ten at night" I told her.
"Yeah I might" She said and kissed me on the lips before walking out of the kitchen and into our bedroom and I followed her into the bedroom and sat down on the bed next to her "Are you sure you're OK Jess? You've been distant the past couple weeks what's wrong?" I asked her.
"I'm just worried about Becky going into labour she's been having funny feelings in her stomach for days, I want to be there for her when she has the baby I don't want to miss anything" She told me and I understood what she meant. Jess and Becky have grown close and although Becky was only allowed one person in the delivery room with her and it was going to be me Jess wanted to be there for everything else "Maybe I should go and ask her if she's OK?" She questioned.
"I'll go you sleep" I said and kissed the top of her head and left the room. I went into Becky's room and seen her sitting up in bed reading a magazine "You OK?" I asked her "Jess is worried" I told her.
She put her magazine down "Honestly I don't know I keep getting these twinges in my stomach, I think I'll be going into labour very soon" She told me.
"OK well me and Jess are going to sleep now but you wake us up if you think you're going into labour and we'll go to the hospital" I told her and she promised she would then we said our goodnight's and I went back to our bedroom "She said she might go to labour soon but she'll wake us up if anything happens" I told Jess who was waiting for me to return.
The alarm woke me up the next morning and looking at the other side of the bed I seen that Jess had already got up so I got out of bed and walked into the living room where I seen Jess sitting on the sofa with Becky who was holding her stomach "We were just about to come and wake you up, it's time" Jess told me and I nodded in shock.
Well this was it. I went and got dressed and picked up the hospital bag then all three of us went down to my truck and we drove towards the hospital "I've called them and told them that we're on our way" Jess called out from the back with Becky.
When we got to the hospital Becky was taken to a room to do some tests then when that had been done me and Jess went in to see her and Becky said that they had just broken her waters for her, she's 2cm dilated and they had strapped her up to monitors and they would be back in an hour to see if there was any more progress. I can't believe all of this was happening already "Becker can I speak to you for a moment about something?" Becky asked.
Jess said she was going to go and call Lester to tell him that we wouldn't be in today because Becky was having the baby, what could she want to speak to me about?
"I've been thinking about what you said the other week when you told me that you were going to send me pictures and E-Mails about the baby but I have decided that I don't want to know anything, when the baby is born I don't want to see it and I don't want to know what gender it is. I just want to have this baby sign it over to you and then get out of here and get back to Ibiza as soon as possible, I know you probably think that I'm being a cold hearted bitch but I can't go back to Ibiza and get pictures of you, Jess and the baby playing happy families with the baby I had and I'm not ready to be a mother and Jess is and you are ready to be a father which is great for the both of you I know that this baby will be taken care of and loved more then any baby ever so I'm not worried about the baby not being taken care of I think you and Jess are going to be perfect parents and I can't imagine anyone better then the two of you bringing up this baby" She explained to me and tears fell from her eyes.
I put my hand over hers "If that's what is best for you then OK then, if you don't want to see the baby then I'll sort that for you I just want this to be good for you" I told her.
"Thank you for understanding I don't think Jess would understand what I was doing like you do" She said.
"It's not that she wouldn't understand she just has a different mind set" I told her.
An hour later the doctor came in and examined Becky and said that she was 6cm dilated and he thought that she would be ready to give birth soon as she in an hour she had dilated 4cm in an hour, they're estimating that she would be giving birth in around two hours time. When they came in and examined her I went outside with the doctor and explained to him that me and Jess were adopting the baby and Becky didn't want to see the baby, know it's gender, know how much it weighs… nothing. They said they would put a sheet up and as soon as they baby was born they would close the curtain and once its cleaned up they were take the baby out of the room.
After I had explained to the doctor what Becky wanted I asked Jess to come out of the room so that I could speak to her as well and explain to her what Becky wanted and I knew that she wasn't going to like it but this wasn't her choice this was Becky's choice. The second I finished explaining to Jess what was going to happen when the baby was born she started freaking out and told me she thought that Becky was being stupid, irresponsible and not standing up to her responsibilities. I tired explaining that Becky wasn't ready to become a mother and she was doing the best thing by letting me and her bring up the baby because we could look after the baby where as she couldn't but that didn't wash with Jess, Jess said that she wasn't going back in the hospital room to see Becky she was going to sit outside and wait for the baby to be born then she was going to go and sit with the baby.
"If you're sitting out here then I'll come out and give your updates" I told her.
Three hours later and it was finally time for Becky to push and I wanted to see everything so I stood towards the butt end and I held her leg up, it was pretty gross but awesome to watch. The doctor set up the sheet and had two nurses come in and hold it up in place so Becky couldn't see the baby and he ordered everyone to not speak about the baby until it was out of the room "OK Becky you need to push OK?" He said to her and she nodded and started pushing.
You could tell when she was pushing and when she wasn't pushing it was weird! I watched as the baby's head came out and three pushes later the rest of the body was pushed out and I could see it was a girl, I had a baby girl! The doctor let me cut the cord and then they cleaned her up and took her out of the room so Becky couldn't see her and I knew Jess was going to follow them but I wanted to make sure that Becky was OK so after she had been cleaned up and everything I went back to her head "You OK?" I asked her. She nodded with tears in her eyes "Are you sure you don't want to know what gender the baby is?" I asked her.
"I'm sure I don't want to know anything because if I do then I will get attached and I don't that I want you and Jess to take the baby and bring the baby up amazingly like I know you will but please can I ask that if the baby is a girl that she has my name as her middle name and if it's a boy he has my dads name as his middle name… Jack… that's all I'm ever going to ask for" She pleaded with me.
I couldn't say not to her "Of course I will give the child one of them middle names" I said and kissed the her forehead "I'm going to go and check on the baby and I promise to come back before I go home" I told her and she smiled at me and nodded.
I went to the room the doctor told me he was taking the baby and seen Jess sitting in a chair holding her cooing over her "Chloe Rose Becker" She said when she seen me crying with happiness.
"Actually I just spoke to Becky and she said the only thing she is going to ask for is that if the baby is a girl can we give her the middle name Rebecca and if it's a boy can we give him the middle name Jack after her dad and I said I would, I think it's the least we can do considering she's giving us her baby" I told her.
"OK then it's Chloe Rebecca Rose Becker" She said and handed me Chloe. She was beautiful! She had chocolate coloured eyes and she had a matching chocolate little bit of hair on the top of her head, I put my finger next to her hand and her hand instantly wrapped around my finger and I started crying, this was baby girl.
"Our baby girl" I said and Jess stood beside me and we kissed "She's perfect" I told her and she nodded.
My two girls are all I will ever need.
