Illusions Chapter 27

Chapter 27

Nora tossed and turned in bed. She was feeling so uncomfortable. She need this kid out of her NOW! She wiggled around trying to find a good position.

“RED!”
“Sorry, I can’t fall asleep because I can’t get comfortable. Because your baby won’t let me! I just want the baby out of me.”
“Soon honey really soon.”  Bo sat up and turned towards her. “Sit up.”
She did as he asked, he moved himself behind her and began to massage her shoulders and back. Nora sighed as she started to relax. Soon she felt her eyes starting to fall as he continued his ministrations. She leaned back against him, Bo kissed her and wrapped his arms around her, soon she was asleep.

Nora woke with jolt as she felt a pain. She took a deep breath. She felt Bo move behind her, he must of fallen asleep with her in his arms.

“What is wrong Red?”
“I think I just had a contraction?”
Bo sat up.

“Do we need to the hospital?”
“No, not yet. If it was one, it was the first. We have a long way to go still.” Bo ran his hands down her back a few times. “We should try to get more sleep, we won’t get much soon.”
He kissed her and held her to him again. They fell asleep once more.

An hour later Nora woke again, the pain was even stronger. She looked behind her, Bo was still asleep. She quietly got up trying not to wake him. She went downstair and started to walk. She was definitely in labor, but she knew she still had sometime and she wanted Bo to get sleep. No reason for them both to be sleep deprived.

She called her doctor to let her know it was beginning. The doctor told her to wait till the get 10 minutes apart before going to the hospital. So she made sure everything was around, stopping when a contraction hit. A few hours later her contractions were getting close to 10 minutes apart. She walked upstair. Bo was still sound asleep. She gently shook him. She kissed him as he woke. He looked up in confusion.

“Red?”
“It’s time to go Bo.”
His face still showed a confusion as he tried to wake. Then it hit him, he stood straight up. Nora sat down as he dressed. He came over to her and helped her back up. They headed towards the car, Bo put her suitcase in the car as she started to get. He stopped for a few seconds once they both sat down. He smiled at her and kissed her.

“We are having our baby Red!”
She smiled then moaned as the pain hit her. Bo held her hand the entire time. Once it was done he headed towards the hospital. At the hospital Nora labor progressed very fast. Bo held her hand and talked her through the entire thing. Two hours later Bo and Nora were parents to baby boy.

Nora laid on the bed semi asleep as Bo held their son. She couldn’t help but smile as she watched them, she listened to Bo telling him all the ways of the new world he was a part of.

“We will love you forever and ever. And that pretty lady over there, she is your mommy, she is the best mommy in the world.” Bo kissed the baby then looked over at her and smiled. She felt her eyes closing. “It’s okay Red, go to sleep we’ll be here when you wake.” Nora felt her body fall asleep as she smiled.
