I do not know how long I was passed out for, but when I came to, I found myself laying on the grass, in Alexanders arms. He looked down at me passionately with his beautiful, emerald eyes, before he brought his head down and his thick warm lips claimed mine. I kissed him back hungrilly, savouring the feel of his lips on mine.
When he reluctantly pulled his head back, his eyes sparkled with tears, and I was so overwhelmed with emotion that I allowed my tears to flow down my face without holding back.
"Don't cry Elizabeth, I am here now and I will never let you go ever again." he said in a deep, rich, scottish brogue.
I miss him so much! Wrapping my arms around him, I closed my eyes and gave thanks to God for bringing him back to me. Alexanders huge, calloused hand caressed my stomach, and at that moment the baby decided to kick, and ALexanders eyes brightened with joy.
"My son!" he said emotionally, and his muscled chest swelled with pride. Then he leaned his head down and traced butterfly kisses all around my big fat belly. My baby kicked wildly, as if he knew that this was his father.
"I am here little one, papa will never leave you again!" he whispered to his son.
And at that moment, as if my baby boy understood his fathers words, he kicked wildly and pain burst throughout my back and I let out a scream.
Alarmed, ALexander lifted me gently in his arms and asked, "Is it time?"
"I think so, please get me to Mary, we need her help." I cried out.
Wasting no time, ALexander stood slowly up with me in his arms and started running towards the apartment, and a few doors away before we reached the building where I resided, ALexander put me gently down on my feet and said, "you must walk in on your own two feet, and act as if everything is normal, we do not want the security guard to know that you are in labor, because he will alert the police and we do not want the attention."
I nodded, unable to talk, and did as he said. I smiled at the security guard as we walked past him and headed towards the elevator. We huirried in and Alexander pressed the number four button, and when the door closed to the elevator, I collapsed in his arms.
The pain was excruciating, and I screamed unable to contain myself, and My husband, panicked and didnt know what to do to help me. finally when the door opened to the elevator, we stepped out and the door to the apartment crashed open and Mary along with James and Brendan rushed out anxiously and everyone tried to do their part in helping out the situation at hand.
The sharp pains felt as if my insides were being torn apart, and as soon as I stepped inside the apartment, my water broke and leaked down my thighs and everyone started talking at the same time, and I heard Mary yell out orders and all three men obeyed her without hesitation.
Alexander lifted me into his arms and took me to the bedroom and lay me gently on the bed. Brendan, charged in the room with fresh linen, and James came running in with hot water, as Mary prepared to deliver my child.
I screamed as the pains ripped through my back, and ALexander kneeled next to me.
"My love, thank you for going through all this pain to gift me a son!" he said hoarsely as tears slid down his handsome face. "You and Christopher are my life now."
Mary lifted my dress up to my waist, and removed my underwear, and asked me to spread my legs apart, just as I felt extreme pressure down below, and Brendan cried, "I see the head, oh my God, the baby is coming out!"
James was holding my hand on the other side of ALexander. His eyes were closed and he was praying for a safe delivery.
Mary yelled for me to push and I did, and Christopher came sliding out, and filled the room with cries, but to me, it was music to my ears.
ALexander dropped his head on my breast, and cried loudly, wrapping his arms around me and repeating over and over again how much he loved me.
Brendan held the baby while Mary cut the umbilical cord, and then Brendan wrapped my baby in a blanket and placed him in my arms. Mary pulled out the placenta and wiped me clean, and then she stood back with tears in her eyes, as she watched ALexander squeeze me and Christopher in his arms.
