' they're all together" she said
Charles nodded and reached out to both his boys and telling them to hurry to the hospital.
Betty layed there tired as hell whwn she heard the door open
Lysander all but ran in and knelt by her side. ”Are you alright?” he asked, taking her hand gently placing his other against her stomach.
Henry waved from outside the room before the door closed.
" I'm in alot of pain " she said
”What kind of pain?” Lysander asked, more than a little worried.
" it's just contractions" she said
Lysander nodded and let out a small sigh of relief.
”The doctors have told me that everything is going normally.” Charles assured them.
" I thought you weren't going to come" she admitted
Lysander looked at her in surprise. ”Of course, I would come.” he told her kissing her forehead. ”Honestly, I shouldn't have left your side today.”
”Don’t be ridiculous, son.” Charles said. ”No one can predict the exact date for these things.”
Betty cried out as another contraction came
Lysander tightened his grip on her hand slightly, to remind her that he was still here. ”It’s alright. Just breathe, remember.” he encouraged. ”Deep breathes.”
An hour passed and the doctor was at the end of her bed encouraging her to push as she was bawling her eyes out
"Come on Elizabeth I can see the head" she said
When the doctor had walked in and started helping, Charles had opted to leave the room and wait with Henry.
Lysander was still by his wife’s side, still holding her hand. He wasn't going to leave her.
Soon enough the baby was out covered in blood Betty's bloods when she collapsed back on the pillows
Lysander was smiling at Betty. ”You did it, angel. You did it.” he kissed her forehead, still holding her hand.
She smiled tiredly the doctor handed laura-beth over to Betty
He looked over at their daughter and smiled softly. ”She’s perfect.” he looked at Betty. ”Just like her mother.”
(remember your Laura-beth)
She smiled Laura Beth had blonde hair and green eyes
(I remember)
Lysander delicately reaching a hand towards Laura-Beth and brushed a finger against her hand.
The little girl twitched a little at the touch, looking almost asleep.
Betty gently lean down and pressed a soft kiss to her daughter's head
Laura-Beth made a soft almost cooing sound at the kiss.
Lysander smiled. ”You know what I just realized?” he chuckled softly.
"what's that?" She asked stroking Laura Beth's blonde hair
”Her initials are the first letters of our names.” Lysander noted.
She giggled squeezing his hand
He smiled and squeezed her hand gently.
There was a soft knock on the door.
"can you get that I don't want to wake her up" she whispered kissinng laurabeths head
Lysander nodded. ”You shouldn't get up anyway.” he reminded her, kissing her forehead before going to answer the door.
”Hey.” Henry smiled with Charles standing next to him. ”How’s the new mother?”
"Dad?" Betty asked
Lysander stepped aside and let the two family members in.
”I’m here, my daughter.” Charles said softly as he walked over and saw his granddaughter.
Henry walked in offering some coffee to Lysander.
