... We All Fall Down

I reached for the control to the television, when I felt myself get wet. I looked down and a sharp pain shoots through my back. I let out a whine and stood up. My jeans were soaked... This couldn't be. "OWEN?!" I yelled and he comes running. He stands there and looks at the wet spot on my jeans and the couch. "DONT JUST STAND THERE! DO SOMETHING!" "GENESIS!" He yelled and ran to the phone. "GET THE BAGS! ITS TIME!" Genesis comes running to me with the bags on her hand. She stands in front of me and helps me to the car. "Breathe Nita... In and out." Owen enters the driver seat and quickly turns on the car. I kept on breathing, but the pains just got worse. "DRIVE FASTER YOU FUCKER!!" Wow... I was being a bitch. ------------------ "Push Nita.. Just a few more." Tony said as he grabbed my hand. I pushed and hit my head on the bed again. "One more babe.." "We can see the head Ms.Fosters. One more push." I take in some air and push as hard as I could until I heard a cry. "Congratulations it's a boy. Daddy.." Tony kisses my head and cuts the cord. I close my eyes and start to cry. "You did great Ni... You're a momma." Tony says and wipes the sweat off my face. He takes out his phone and goes to take a picture of our child. His cries were loud, making me anxious to hold him. "Healthy baby boy." The nurse says as she gives him to me. "Already chose the name?" She asks and pulls out her notepad. I look at Tony who was looking at the baby. "We did." I said softly. "It's Dennis." "Dennis Caleb Perry." Tony finished. The nurse smiles and leaves. "Welcome to the world little one." ----------------------- I was learning how to breastfeed when Genesis and Owen came in the room. Dennis just couldn't hold of the breast. "Stubborn little one?" "Like it's mother." Tony said. I shoot him a glare and he smiles. "It's normal.. He'll get the hang of it. Try every time he's hungry... If he doesn't then put milk on your breast, to fool him. Wanna try?" The nurse said. "Sure." She opens the little bottle and shakes it well. She drops milk on my boob and I put Dennis mouth close to it. "Wow." This was something big. His brown eyes open and close again. His hand was holding my pinky. "It worked." Genesis says. "for....." She cuts off. "Took me about 3 weeks." Owen hugs her from the side and kisses her cheek. We all look at Dennis. You're someone we're going to protect Dennis.... No one... And I mean no one is going to hurt you.
