Ex-Husband's Regret



"No! I need to push," I growl, grabbing Gabriel by the shirt.

I feel crazy. Like I've lost my damn mind. The pain was definitely driving me crazy.

Thankfully, we got to the room before I gave birth in the hallway of the damn hospital. I breathe a sigh of relief when we get to the room, and they begin prepping me.

Ava is already inside. I'm thankful to have someone who understands what it feels like when your vagina literally splits into two so that a tiny little human can make its way into the world.

"I can't hold back anymore," I grit out before moving up and pushing with everything I have.

I swear I feel my butt crack split, and it just adds to more of my pain.

*This is all your fucking fault!" I scream at Gabriel while holding his hand in a death grip.

I glare at him. My breaths come in fast, and my nostrils flare in an effort to take as much air into my lungs as possible.

*Come on, darling, push," Ava urges me while wiping the sweat from my forehead. "Gabriel doesn't matter here."

"Hey, that's mean Ava," Gabriel grumbles, glaring at Ava. She glares right back as if telling him to shut the fuck up and go with the flow.

I squeeze their hands as yet another contraction hits, and I push.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

I kept pushing, but nothing seemed to be happening. Why the hell was it taking so long? The only progress we made was that they could see the head, but that wasn't enough for me.

"I need this baby out of me, now!" I shout.

My energy was waning, and I was on the verge of tears.

*I'll just check to make sure everything is okay," Gabriel tells me before kissing my sweaty head.

"I don't think that's a good idea, Gabe," Ava warns him.

He just flips her. "You're not the boss of me. I'll do whatever the fuck I want."

He let's go of my hand and leaves my side. He goes to the foot of the bed, where my doctor and nurses are.

His eyes widening is the only sign we get before Gabriel's six feet two form collapse to the ground.

"I warned him," Ava chuckles by my side. "He didn't listen."

I honestly don't know why I find it funny. Maybe it's the way his eyes rolled to the back of his head before he fainted. It was all comical, if you ask me. This is something to remember.

"Do you have your phone?" I breathe through the pain and ask Ava, to which she nods. "Take a photo of him. I'll use it as blackmail later on."

She laughs and winks at me. "I like the way you think."

Luckily, Gabriel regains consciousness just as our baby slips out of my body. Just like Ava and Rowan, we decided to know the gender at birth.

"Congratulations, you have a healthy baby boy," Macy announces, smiling at both me and Gabriel, who, it seems, is trying to get his bearing.

"Congratulations, Mama," Ava kisses my cheek. "I'll go let the others know. I'm sure Lilly is dying to know whether she's having a baby sister or brother."

I nod tiredly. She leaves the room, and I sink against the pillow.

"You did it, Darling." Gabriel kisses my lips before handing me our bundle of joy. "What are we going to name him?"

"Is it okay if we name him Andrew Liam?"

He smiles, knowing the significance of those names. "Andrew Liam Woods... It's perfect, just like our boy."

Andrew opens his eyes, and they are the exact shade as those of his father and sister. I couldn't have been happier. Shit happened, but it brought me to this moment, to where I was always meant to be.
