"LINDSEY." I yell from the bathroom at 6:30 in the morning.
"Baby what's wrong?" She asks after running into the bathroom.
"It's time."
Lindsey runs and grabs some sweats and helps me put them on then helps me down the stairs and to the car. She then goes and gets the bag that's by the door and throws it in the back seat and she speeds to the hospital.
"FUCK" I yell as another contraction hits.
"How far apart are they baby?" Lindsey asks while holding my hand and brushing her thumb over my knuckles.
"Like three minutes." I say then I hear the dial tone come through the car speakers.
"Hello" A voice I recognize as Christen says groggily.
"Christen the team's in LA right?" Lindsey asks.
"Yeah...."
"Cairo is goi-"
"HOLY SHIT." I yell cutting Lindsey off after another contraction hits this time coming two minutes after the last one.
"Is Cairo having the baby?" Christen asks.
"We are on the way to Cedars-Sinai. Can you meet us there?"
"I'm on the way."
"HOLY FUCK." Another contraction.
"Can you tell everyone?" Lindsey asks.
"Yep. See you soon." Christen says and hangs up the phone.
"Call your parents." I say.
"I'll call after we get to our room." Lindsey says as we pull into the parking lot of the hospital.
Lindsey parks the car then helps me out of the car and into the hospital. Once in the hospital Lindsey helps me into a wheelchair and wheels me up to the check in desk.
"Hi we gave in the paperwork for a delivery this week." Lindsey says quickly. She's surprisingly calm.
I, on the other hand, am in a world of pain.
"Fucking hurry up." I mumble.

I'm trying really hard not to scream since there are sleeping babies around.
"Name?" The receptionist says.
"I got 'em Stacy. Name's Cairo Horan and we'll be in 310." My OB/GYN, Allison, says.
"It's about time." I mumble.
"Heard that." Lindsey says and kisses my cheek.
Lindsey and I follow Allison to the room and once there I sit on the bed.
"Alright Cairo I'll be back in ten minutes. I need you to put on that gown." Allison says then leaves.
"Want some help?" Lindsey asks.
"Yes please." I say.
Lindsey helps me out of the sweats and into the gown then she helps me onto the bed. Lindsey then calls her parents, who say they are on the way.
"You two have a lot of visitors." Allison says when she comes back in the room.
"Guess the team are here." I say as Allison sits in front of me and looks at my lady bits.
"Oh wow." Allison says.
"What?" Lindsey says.
"You two came at the right time."
"What?" I say.
"It's time to push." Allison says as people flood into the room. "Ready.
I nod and take Lindsey's hand in mine then push and scream a little bit.
"That was good Cairo. Just a few more like that."
"You're doing this next time." I say to Lindsey while catching my breath.
"Whatever you say baby."
"Alright Cairo. Ready to push again?"
I nod then push with all my strength. This cycle happens four more times before the room is filled with crying.
"Congratulations ladies. Here is your baby girl."
"You did it Cairo." Lindsey says and kisses my head.
"I love you Princess." I say.
"I love you Cairo." Lindsey says and kisses me.

One of the midwives then comes over and lays our baby girl in my arms for skin to skin contact.
"Woah." I say then look at Lindsey. "She's so beautiful."
"We're Mom's." Lindsey says and both of us smile.
A nurse comes over and takes our daughter.
"I'll bring her back soon. If you'd like you can shower and then we'll move you into your postpartum room. There's a fresh gown over there and I'll have someone bring in new linens" The nurse says. "Oh we need a name."
"Isabella Océane Horan." Lindsey says.
The nurse leaves and Lindsey then helps me into the bathroom and helps me shower. After I'm showered and changed Lindsey helps me back into the room and I see they brought in a whole new bed and it's bigger so I pull Lindsey onto it with me.
"It's okay sweetie." A nurse says when she enters the room with our baby, who's crying. "Look your Mother's are here."
The nurse then lays our baby girl in my arms and then leaves. Once the nurse leaves I begin to feed Isabella for the first time.
"I can't believe we made something so beautiful." I say and look down at our daughter, who's still feeding.
"Oh my god." Lindsey says as Isabella wraps her tiny little hand around Lindsey's pinky finger.
"Ugh. It's going to be so hard to say no to her." I say as there is a knock on the door
"Hey girls." Allison says. "Oh good she's feeding. Well we are going to move you to your postpartum room now. Would you like us to bring up any visitors?"
I look at Lindsey and nod and she looks at Allison.
"Could you bring up Alex Morgan and Christen Press please?" Lindsey asks.
"Of course."
I'm then wheeled out of the delivery room and up to the postpartum room. Once in the very big room Lindsey rejoins me on the bed as everyone leaves the room leaving us alone.
A few minutes later there's a knock on the door.
"Hey parents." Christen says with a smile as her and Alex come in the room.
"Hey girls." Lindsey says.
"How are you feeling Cairo?" Alex asks.
"Sore, but it was worth it." I say and look at the little girl who's resting in my arms then look back at the two girls. "Would you two like to meet your goddaughter?"
"Yea- Wait what?" Alex says and both of them look confused.
"We want you two to be our daughters godmother's." Lindsey says.
Alex and Christen let a few tears slip then look at each other then back at us.
"Looks like we need to meet our goddaughter then." Christen says.
I hand Isabella to them and they coo over her.
"You two made a darn cute baby." Alex says.
"What's her name?" Christen asks.
"Isabella Océane Horan." I say.
The girls continue to acquaint themselves with their goddaughter while I get some sleep. When I wake up the rest of the national team girls and Lindsey's parents are here.
"Congratulations Cairo." Lindsey's dad says.
"Thank you."
"Yo she has Lindsey's eyes." Pinoe says as she holds Isabella.
"That's a good thing since Lindsey's eyes are insanely beautiful." I say then tighten my grip on Lindsey, who's, surprisingly, still in bed with me.
"You okay?" Lindsey asks and runs her thumb over my cheek.
"Just tired."
"Get some sleep. I'll wake you when Isabella needs feeding."
"Love you." I whisper before my eyes shut.
