So awesome. I hope for more soon and it´s not bad at all.^^

[princesschristmas]

I'm gone for a while and I find out the story that I love is put on hold.

[lillyscotty]

Soon enough, the two were packing to leave. Lilly didn’t want to leave, enjoying her intimate time with Scotty.
As she packed up her things, shoving her clothes into her suitcase, she watched Scotty smiling as he went through her lingerie.
“Having fun?”
Scotty turned around to face her, he winked at her and then turned back around. “Yep.”
Lilly moved over to him and snatched what she could out his hand. “You shouldn’t be doing that.”
“Now what do we have here..,” slowly Scotty pulled out a black negligee.
“Nothing.”
“Uh uh, you’re not getting out of this. If you weren’t playing on anything happening, why bring this.”
“Scotty please...”
“Come on Lil, you can’t keep teasing me like this. I’m tryna be there for you and understand what you’re going through, but when I find things like this, it kinda turns my head.”
Lilly’s back faced Scotty while he gathered up the rest of her lingerie.
“I’m sorry okay, I just don’t know when I’m gonna be ready. One minute I really want it, the next I’m scared and don’t want it.”
Scotty didn’t answer instead shoved all her lingerie into her suitcase.
“Scotty you have to be easy on me.”
“I’ve been easy Lil; you’re just driving me up the wall.”
Lilly moved over to him and wrapped her arms around his waist. She placed her head on his shoulder and pulled his hands to her back. “I’m sorry, just please...a few more days then I promise I’ll have an answer.”
Scotty hugged her tightly and nodded. “Okay.”
**
The ride home was exhausting. Lilly found it hard to sleep, instead ate as she stared out the window. The two never talked nor glanced at each other. Lilly did her best to ignore her strong cravings knowing they didn’t have much food left.
An hour away from home, Scotty pulled into a gas station to get something to eat for Lilly. They then continued their drive, Lilly trying to fall asleep but no succeeding.
**
When they arrived home, Lilly quickly slipped out of the car and went inside. She headed straight for the kitchen, grabbing out whatever meat that was in sight.
When Scotty finally got everything inside, Lilly was lying on the couch and watching TV.
“You gonna help me unpack?”
“No, you’re the man, do it yourself.”
Scotty rolled his eyes as he picked up Lilly’s suitcase.
Lilly knew she should be helping him and stop being so stubborn, although she was determined to show him that she would not show any affection to him until he showed her affection.
Soon enough, Scotty came downstairs. He joined Lilly on the couch, sitting as far away from Lilly as possible.
Lilly wanted affection, Scotty wanted to make sure he wasn’t pushing her over the edge, leaving both to feel uneasy.
“Far out Scotty will you cuddle me?”
Scotty jumped at her loud voice, staring at her intensely. “Hold you?”
“Yes,” and that was when the tears started to fall. “Why won’t you touch me?”
“I don’t want to push you.”
“Doesn’t mean you can’t touch me.” Lilly quickly wiped her tears away, punching the couch. “I hate my hormones.”
Scotty smiled warmly, moving closer to her. He gently wrapped one arms around her waist, and rested the other on her stomach. “Sorry, just don’t know what is going too far.”
“If you’re going too far, I’ll tell you.”
“Okay.”
Scotty gently pulled her into his arms, laid back on the couch, then pulled her on top of him. Lilly’s head rested on his chest as he rubbed her back.
“Thank you,” she whispered, kissing his collar bone.
“Anything for my baby girl.”
“Me, or the baby?”
Scotty chuckled loudly. “Now that were having a baby, I think I need to be more clearly. So for my gorgeous fiancé.”
Lilly flashed him one of her dazzling smiled that easily warmed him heart.
“I love you Scotty.”
“You’re telling me that a lot lately, do I need to be worried?”
Lilly lifted her heard to look in his eyes. “No, just want you to know it.”
“Aw, I love you too honey.”
**
Scotty was positive things had gotten better, but when he awoke in the morning, Lilly was lying in bed, leaving him on the couch.
As soon as he crawled into bed, she woke up.
“Hey, left me all alone on the couch.”
Lilly turned around, her back facing him.
“What did I do now?”
She didn’t answer, instead smoothed back her hair.
“Silent treatment huh, well two can play that game.”
Scotty laid there for the next few hours, unable to sleep. When Lilly awoke, she stood up and made her way to the bathroom.
Scotty tried to join her but she slammed the door on him and locked him out.
She was in there for a while until she came into the lounge.
“Silent treatment over?”
“I’m not giving you the silent treatment.”
“Oh really?”
“I just don’t want to talk to you.”
“Thought we made up last night.”
“Just piss off Scotty, I’m so sick of your problems.”
“My problems?” Scotty stuttered, lifting his eyebrows. “What about your problems!”
“I’m having your baby, which means I shouldn’t have to deal with this poo poo!”
“Lil you’re driving me crazy.”
Slowly Lilly lent against the door frame, trying to keep her calm. “And I’m sick of you.”
Scotty rolled his eyes as he looked out the window. “I thought we made up last night.”
“Yeah and I thought you weren’t such a bastard anymore.”
“What the hell are you talking about?”
“You Scotty! You’re anger problems, the way you take me for granted, the way you think about other women-“
“I have never ever thought about another woman when I have been with you.”
“Oh yeah?”
“Yeah!”
“Hmm, well your dreams say otherwise.”
“What?” Scotty asked confused. His heart raced as he felt the fight getting out of control.
“Who’s Carol? Huh, you seem to want her so bad and her gorgeous body.”
“Carol?”
“Oh yeah Carol, mmm, you’re so sexy baby, I love you and your hot body.”
“I’d never do that...and I don’t even know a Carol.”
“Don’t you dare lie to me,” she yelled out, flinging they nearest solid object she could find at him.
Scotty quickly ducked, the item falling behind him.
“What is wrong with you?” he asked, looking up and down her.
“What is wrong with me? What is wrong my fiancé, who knows what crap I’ve been through with being cheated on, with my old fiancé, but doesn’t think about me when it comes to other women.”
“I’d never ever do to you what Patrick did to you.”
“You already slept with my sister, so I guess you’re just like him.”
Scotty clenched his fists as he bit down on his lip. “Don’t bring Chris up!” he mumbled through his lips.
“Why Scotty, you still want her more than me.”
As soon as she said that, Scotty felt it get too hard. He pushed past her and ran upstairs leaving Lilly to grow angrier.
Soon enough Scotty came out with a gym bag.
“Where are you going?” Lilly demanded, stepping in front of him.
Scotty stepped past her and opened the door. “To the gym, to get away from you!”

[icequeenlilly]

wow awsome i hope scotty and lilly start fight soon i hope for more soon

[icequeenlilly]

I mean i hope they stop fighting is not mean fighting sorry for my english

[channelkid]

Wow, what an emotional and great chapter. I hope they can sort it out. Scotty dreaming about a "Carol"? Maybe Lilly got it wrong and he said "Querida"? I can't wait to read more. Thanks for updating. I really love your story. :-)

[lillyscotty]

Scotty didn’t arrive home to late that night, and we he did, he staggered through the door, clearly drunk.
“Lil-l-l-l-l-ly, I’m home...”
Lilly was lying in bed, rubbing her stomach as she ate strawberries when she heard Scotty yell out to her.
She quickly ran downstairs, stopping when she saw him jumping around on the table.
“Scotty get off!”
He jumped off, falling onto the ground. “I needa come clean baby. Carol’s my baby girl, mmhmm, my sweet...sweet honey.”
“How much have you had to drink?”
“I wanna marry her. Mmm, make you feel better!”
Lilly lent against the wall, rubbing her head as she felt a headache coming on. She didn’t believe him about Carol, but she didn’t know what Carol was to him.
“Have fun at the gym?”
“Oh yeah, I saw Carol. I did her in the car, and I-i-i-i called her Lilly. Yep, we’re in love baby.”
“Well isn’t that good for you.”
Scotty looked up hurt, glaring at her with his dark chocolate eyes. “You don’t care that I’m cheating?”
“You’re not cheating on me; I know you love me too much to do that.”
“Then why do I dream about her? Huh, hypocritical little...baby fiancé.”
Lilly rolled her eyes, not understand Scotty’s words. “I don’t know who she is, but I know you wouldn’t cheat on me.”
“Sure-e-e-e. You know Lil...you’re fat!”
“Thanks.”
“And I hate you!”
Scotty stood up, his body swaying, and tried to make his way to the kitchen.
“Scotty, besides anger problems, I think you have drinking problems.”
“O-o-o-o-o-o, so I’m your mother hey.”
“Don’t bring her up!”
“You bought Chris up, so I’ll bring up whoever the damn...I want.”
“You know what Scotty, I’m going to bed, don’t bother talking to me in the morning if you’re still going to be like this.”
Scotty poked his tongue out at Lilly as she walked upstairs. She stumbled towards the couch, and then collapsed onto it, falling into a deep, deep sleep.
**
Scotty did awake the next morning with a terrible headache and no memory of the night before. However, he did remember fighting with Lilly and punching the hell out of a boxing bag.
“God...,” he moaned loudly, slightly sitting up.
“Lil, help!”
No response.
“Please...Lilly, help me!”
No response.
Slowly he lay back down on the couch, closing his eyes and trying to find strength.
A while later, Scotty gathered enough strength to stand up. It took him a while, but soon enough he arrived at Lilly’s bedroom. He pushed the door open, slumping to her bed.
When he laid down on it, he looked around the room. “Lilly...”
Still no response. That was when Scotty noticed the white piece of paper near his head. He reached for it and held it in front of his eyes.
His vision was blurry which made it hard to see.
After resting his eyes, he tried to read the note out.

Gone to stay at Kat’s for a while.
Love Lil xx

Scotty sighed, scrunching up the paper and throwing on the ground. Flashes off the night before ran through his mind, Carol coming up many times.
Scotty had never remembered dreaming about her, nor knew a woman named Carol. The only dreams he could remember having were of Lilly, and they were very sexual dreams which he thought explained the way he talked, except, Carol was not Lilly’s name.
After a few hours of rest and recovery, Scotty got changed and moved outside. After taking a few breathes of air, he got into the car.
He didn’t know if it was a good idea to drive, but he just knew he needed Lilly by his side.
He soon arrived at Kat’s place, running up to the door as rain started to poor.
He banged loudly on the door, waiting for someone to answer.
“Kat, get Lilly.”
Kat walked out from the house, shutting the door behind her. “What the hell are you doing here?”
“I need to see Lilly.”
“The hell you do!”
“Please, I need to explain things to her.”
“Lilly doesn’t want to talk to you right now.”
“Please...”
“No!”
Scotty groaned pinching the skin between his nose and forehead. “Is she okay?”
“A little tiffed at you, but okay.”
“Did she tell you anything, about...Carol?”
“Oh yeah, heard all about it.”
“Oh...well, listen...tell her this, tell her I came by and wanted to tell her that I promise the only dreams I have been having lately are of her. I don’t even know a Carol. Only been dreaming about her and making love to her.”
“Mmhmm.”
“And...tell her I’d never cheat on her, ever, ever, ever!”
“She doesn’t think you’re cheating.”
“She doesn’t?” Scotty asked confused.
“Nope, she thinks you’re fantasising about other women.”
“No, no! Look, tell her the only dreams I have been having are of her, and I promise her that. I don’t even know why I said Carol.”
“I need to go before she comes out.” Kat announced, stepping backwards.
“Okay but tell her that, and tell her I miss her like crazy already. And I love her, and to look after the baby.”
“Sure thing.”
Scotty smiled slightly Kat headed back inside. Even though he hadn’t talked to her, he knew things would work out.
************************************************************************************

[aprild81]

As usual awesome story. I am so glad you didnt stay away to long

[channelkid]

Oh, great chapter. And I really hope they work it out soon. I want to see them together again :-)

[lillyscotty]

Out of curiousity, 'aprild82', were you the one who posted the link to my story on a Cold Case fan page over at Facebook? If so, thank you, you made my day ;D

**
It had been a week since Lilly had left. She didn’t show up at work, and Scotty didn’t bother asking anyone why.
Scotty sat as his desk, staring at the picture of him and Lilly a few weeks into their relationship that sat nearby. Her eyes glowed while she flashed her heart-stopping smile at the camera.
She hadn’t looked like that since that day, and it saddened him to think their relationship was ending.
“Scotty.”
He looked up quickly, shaking his thoughts away.
“Earth to Scotty.” Kat laughed, waving her hand around his face.
”What?”
“Lilly wants you to come by at lunch, if you don’t mind.”
“To your house?”
“Yeah, she wants to...talk with you.”
“Uh, sure, okay.”
Kat smiled lightly as she walked away, gazing back at him a few times as she walked away.
Scotty screamed inside excited that Lilly finally wanted to ‘talk’.
At lunch, Scotty packed up his belongings and got ready to leave. As he put his keys into his pocket, he felt a strong hand on his back.
“Good luck.”
Scotty smiled as Nick strolled in front of him.
“Thanks man.”
“You need it, you know how Lil is.”
Scotty nodded his head as he slipped on his coat. “Well I’m off; don’t ring me unless it’s urgent.”
As he walked out the department, he felt his nerves itch. He had never felt more nervous in his life, his hands shaking and his legs feeling like jelly.
When he finally made it his car, he groaned out loud, punching the steering wheel as he tried to calm down. Soon enough he started up his engine and made his way to Kat’s place.
He arrived shortly after, slowly putting the car to a stop.
“You can do this Valens. It’s not that hard, just get out of the car and knock on the door. You can do this Valens,” he whispered to himself as he opened the car door.
It took 10 minutes just to reach the door. He reached his hand out, about to knock, but stopped, pulling back his hand.
“Knock,” he mumbled under his breath, clenching his fists.
Finally, he knocked on the door, banging quite loudly.
He waited a few seconds, and then Lilly opened the door.
“Hi.”
Scotty hid the smile as he saw her face. She was dressed in a long shirt of his that stopped just below her ass.
“I’ve been looking for that.”
“Sorry, I needed it.”
Scotty lifted one of his eyebrows as she stepped aside.
He scanned around the lounge, stopping when Lilly stepped in front of him.
“So, I thought we should talk...but before we do that, I think we need to do something else.”
She moved closer, wrapping her arms around his neck. Ever so slowly her lips touched his, her tongue flickering over his firm lips.
Scotty quickly loosened up, returning her kisses as he grabbed onto her ass, shocked when he realised she wasn’t wearing any panties.
Lilly pushed her tongue into his mouth, Scotty groaning out as she slipped his coat off his shoulders.
“Missed you so much,” he whispered as she removed his clothing one by one.
She finally removed all his clothing, stepping backwards.
“Just be easy okay.”
“I’ll try my best.”
Lilly bit her lips as she let his shirt fall, watching as Scotty’s breathe caught.
She ran hands down the side of her body, catching Scotty’s wide eyes in an intense gaze.
She motioned for him to come closer, smiling when his hands found her body.
“God Lil I missed you!”
**
Lilly rested on Scotty’s chest as he played with her hair.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered, looking down at her.
She lifted her to return his gaze, but instantly looked back down. “It wasn’t you’re fault. My hormones...there-“
“No Lil! This was my fault and I want to take full responsibility for it.”
Lilly slowly looked up at him, a smile spreading over her face. “I’m proud of you.”
The two shared an intimate kiss before Lilly stood up. She slipped into a pair of jeans and a long sleeved top.
“Get up, we’re going home, and you’re going to make me some lunch.”
Scotty found the offer to hard to resist and in a split second, he was slipping into his clothes.
By the time they arrived back at Lilly’s place, Lilly was rubbing her stomach whilst feeling the baby kick.
“What do you want?” Scotty asked, not knowing what she was craving this week.
“Anything, just hurry will you.”
He ended up deciding on soup hoping it would do her good with the cold weather. Once he had finished cooking, he brought it in to Lilly, helping her with the bowl.
“Soup?”
“It’s good for you in this weather.”
Lilly glared at him, clearly not wanting a bowl of soup.
Scotty stared back with a smile on his face, not showing any sign of anger.
“Fine,” she grumbled, tasting the soup. “It’s okay.”
Scotty kept the smile on his face as he wrapped his arms around her. “Just eat up.”
“More like drink up.”
Scotty shook his head then placed a few kisses to her forehead.
“You know there’s only two months till the baby is born.”
“2 and a half!”
“Same thing.”
“No, it’s different.”
“Okay, okay. Still, we’re going to have a baby real soon.”
“I know.” Lilly whispered, looking down at her stomach as she ate.
“Are you excited?”
“Of course, nervous too. But I can’t wait to be a mother.”
“I can’t wait to be a father.” Scotty mumbled into her hair, reaching his hand out to her belly.

Thank you so much for brightening up my week. Getting to be able to continue reading has helped lighten up my mood. It's been raining all week and is getting me upset. I can't wait till the baby is born. I'm looking forward to what is coming next.

[aprild81]

I was the one. I have enjoyed this story so much I really wanted to share it with the all the Cold Case fans out there.

[lillyscotty]

Only a few more chapters left (I'd say 3 at most) and then the story is finished

************************************************************************************

That night, Scotty joined Lilly in bed. She was dressed in the same shirt she wore earlier at Kat’s house.
“You know, whenever I see you in that shirt, I’m not going to be able to push my thoughts away.”
Lilly smiled as she turned off the lamp. “That’s okay.”
She pulled him closer and rested her head in his chest. Scotty kissed her forehead then closed his eyes, hoping to have a good sleep.
**
“HEL-L-LP!”
Scotty’s eyes flashed open, he looked over to see Lilly sitting up asnd holding her chest.
“What, what happened?”
He breathing was slowly dying down as she clutched his hand. “Rob,” she breathed out, almost a whisper.
“Hey, it’s okay, he’s gone, and he can’t hurt you.”
She let her body rest on his as he pulled her into his lap.
Lilly squeezed her eyes shut while Scotty laid her back down.
“I saw him Scotty.”
“It was only a dream.”
“I saw him...he came back for me.”
“Lil, look at me.” When she didn’t look, Scotty took her head in his hands and lifted it slightly. “He won’t hurt you, I’m here, and I’ll protect you.”
“You can’t anymore.”
“What?” Scotty grew confused as she rolled over, her back facing him.
He quickly rolled her back over, staring deeply into her eyes.
“What do you mean I can’t protect you?”
“He won’t give up, he’s never gonna give up.”
“What’s gotten into you?”
Lilly closed her eyes again, her lips in a straight line.
“Lil talk to me.”
“There’s nothing to talk about.”
Scotty reached over and turned the lamp on. Then he sat down next to Lilly, rubbing her hair as she kept her eyes closed.
“Now listen...I will never let anyone hurt you again, from now on, I’m with you everywhere you go, never going to sleep until you’re asleep in my arms!”
“That’s nice.”
Scotty moved his hand down to her cheek, slowly circling her cheek bone. “And...from now on, you need to tell me if you have some guy who’s got the hots for you.”
“Okay.”
“Promise?”
Lilly’s eyes opened and her hands found his neck. “I promise.” With that she pulled him down, kissing him passionately.
As the kiss ended, Lilly climbed into Scotty’s arms, resting her head on his shoulder as he rubbed her back.
**
Later that day, Lilly joined Scotty in the bathroom. She sat down on the toilet as he washed himself down in the shower.
She held basck her giggles, biting her lips as his cleaned himself.
He turned the water off, then opened the shower door.
“Crap Lil!”
Lilly stood up, crossing her arms and resting them under her breasts. “What?”
“You scared me.” He grabbed then nearest towel, wrapped it around his waist, then closed the shower door. “Didn’t know you were in here.”
“Well, I thought I’d help you shave.”
“I can do that myself,” he whispered, reaching for the shaving cream and razor.
“I know, but I wanna do it.”
Lilly reached for the razor, quickly grabbing it out of his hands and grabbing the shaving cream.
She climbed up onto the sink, rested down on it, and then pulled Scotty closer.
“Lil really, I can do this myself.”
She pressed her index finger against his lips, silencing his cries.
She applied the shaving cream to his face, wrapping her legs around his hips and pulling him closer.
“See how much easier it is when I do it.”
Scotty nodded his head as he leaned into her touch, placing his hands on her thighs as he closed his eyes.
“You know how tired I am,” he mumbled, rubbing the insides of her thighs.
“You know how tired I am?”
“Yeah, I know baby.”
Within minutes, Lilly had finished. While she cleaned the razor and the mess she had made, Scotty got changed.
When Lilly came into the bedroom, Scotty was lying down on their bed, his eyes focused on the ceiling.
“You okay?”
“I don’t know.”
Lilly moved closer to him, sitting down on the bed as he relaxed his body. Her hands found his, as she straddled his legs.
“Baby’s moving.”
Scotty eye’s flashed opened, staring intensely at Lilly. “Moving, or kicking?”
“Feels like its moving.”
Lilly’s hand bought Scotty’s hands to her belly, resting them against the movement of the belly.
“Can you feel it?”
“Yeah, is she moving?”
“I think so.”
“Didn’t know babies could move.”
Lilly smiled down at Scotty as he stared in awe.
“Scotty, you’re so cute.”
“Why?”
“You’re gonna make a great father.”
“Yeah?”
“You’re so cute and worried about the baby, tryna look after me all the time...just never thought you’d, be such a...never thought you’d want a baby with me so much.”
Scotty didn’t fail to notice the small tears that filled her eyes. “I want a baby with you, even though we didn’t plan it, but that doesn’t mean I don’t want that little girl growing inside you.”
“I wanna get married Scotty.”
“We will.”
“No, I don’t want to wait any longer.”
“You already planned for your dress, when you’re...skinny.”
“I know, I just, I can’t wait. I want to be you’re so badly.”
A smile spread onto Scotty’s lips as he pulled Lilly closer. “When you have the baby, were getting married as soon as possible.”
“Can’t wait!”
*************************************************************************************

[icequeenlilly]

[channelkid]

Lilly is right: Scotty is cute! Great chapter as always. And she wanna get married. Yeah! Can't wait for the next chapter. Your story is so amazing! :-)

[aprild81]

Amazing as always I am glad I put the link on facebook

[lillyscotty]

Lilly was now 2 weeks away from her due date. Scotty was granted a week off for when she became a week away from giving birth.
While Scotty was at work that day, Lilly laid on the couch watching TV and eating. She flicked through the channels, but stopped when she felt something cool run down her leg.
“Oh crap!”
She tried to sit up, clutching the side of the couch as she tried hard.
She tried 5 times before she collapsed back on the couch. She looked around the room, searching for her phone. Not in sight.
A few mintues later, she treid again to get up. This time she succeeded. Slowly she made her way to the house phone, dialling Scotty’s number.
“Valens.”
“Scotty.”
“Hey Lil-“
“My water broke.”
“What?”
“My water broke. Quickly come.”
“Okay, okay, I’m on my way. Just go relax and I’ll be there in five minutes.”
Before Lilly could answer, he hung up. She struggled to the couch, sitting down as she rested her hands on her belly. “Oh god, I’m not ready,” she whispered, closing her eyes.
When Scotty did arrive, Lilly was already starting to feel her contractions.
Scotty lifted her into his arms, carrying her outside. “Guys are behind me okay, they want to wait in the waiting room.”
Lilly didn’t answer, but instead cuddled closer to him. He put her into the passenger seat, securing her and then climbing into the driver’s seat.
The team ended up losing Scotty, his fast driving hard for them to keep up with.
They arrived 15 minutes later, Lilly breathing heavily while Scotty carried her into the emergency room.
“Hello sir, can I help you?”
Scotty looked down at the receptionist, unable to think.
“Sir?”
“My...fiancé, she’s in labour.”
The receptionist stood up quickly, moving to a room close by, and then returning with an older woman who looked like she was in her late 40’s.
“I’m doctor Cwynar, do you know how far you are into labour?” she asked, taking a look at Lilly.
“Um, her water broke around 30 minutes ago.”
“Oh okay, well follow me.”
On the way to the room, Scotty informed the doctor of their details.
They soon came to the room; Scotty placed Lilly on the bed, staring around as she kept her eyes closed.
“You’ll need to get changed into this Lilly, and I will be back soon to see how far you are along.”
Lilly nodded slightly while Scotty moved over to her.
“Need me to help?”
“Yes.”
He gradually lifted her up, helping her out of her clothes, and then slipping the gown onto her.
Lilly felt her contractions growing as time passed. She didn’t feel ready to deliver yet, her heart pounding as she held Scotty’s hands.
Over the next few hours, doctor Cwynar returned, checking to see how far she was along.
Five hours later, Lilly was ready to give birth. Her contractions were now extremely stronger, and her breathing grew faster.
“Okay Lilly, on the count of 3, I want you to push.”
Lilly bit her lip, shaking her head no.
“Lil, come on, you can do this.” Scotty whispered into her ear.
“You try being in my position, huh, then see how bloody hard it is for you,” she screamed back at him, tears running down her face.
Scotty immediately felt guilty for getting her into this state. He moved closer, pushing her sweaty hair back and kissing her forehead. “Sorry honey, but listen to me, we have a baby who wants to come out. Wants to meet you. Wants you to hold her and love her.”
“I can’t do it Scotty.”
“You can, you can!”
Lilly started to push, squeezing Scotty’s hands while pain ripped through her body.
No long then 5 minutes later, Lilly and Scotty heard the cries of their first child.
Lilly started to cry, Scotty kissing her and telling she did a great job.
“I love you,” she whispered, returning his kisses.
“I love you too.”
“Would you like to hold your baby?”
“Yes.”
The older doctor handed Lilly her newborn. The baby’s eyes shined of baby blue, Scotty knowing that she would be like her mother.
“We will leave her with you for a while, but we need to check on her, just to make sure everything is fine.”
Lilly ignored the doctor, keeping her focus on her baby. Luckily, Scotty listened to every word, watching Lilly at the same time.
“Well I’ll leave you to it; she probably needs a feed, so you can feed her while we are gone.”
“Can you tell the people outside waiting for us to come in later, to give us some time?”
“Sure.”
As she stepped out of the room, Scotty looked down at Lilly and the baby girl.
“She looks like you.”
“You think?” Lilly asked, smiling as the baby sucked on her end finger.
“Yes, just gorgeous.”
“What should we name her?”
“It’s your choice.”
Lilly closed her eyes, taking in a big breathe. “How about Brookelle Leigh Valens?”
“Sounds great,” he whispered into her ear, cuddling her while she started to feed the baby.
