《Christmas Wish (Completed)》Chapter 73
Advertisement
The pains get harder and closer together as the time ticks by. My anxiety is through the roof with Massie out there trying to get to our house with this blizzard happening.
Little girl, you sure are wanting to make your entrance a grand one into the world.
I let a little huff out thinking about it.
I keep checking my phone and Jack keeps timing the contractions. We are down to about six minutes apart. So I am glad it is not progressing overly fast.
Poor Nicolas done changed the movies out to the next Christmas movie, but every time I move he jumps to look. If I need anything he is right there to help along with Jack.
Massie lives about seven miles out and it has taken her forever to get here. No doubt she is having to clear snow from her driveway just to get her little car out.
Just as another contraction hits, the door bell chimes. Nicolas runs to the door, as Jack rubs my back.
"It's Massie." I hear Nicolas yell out.
The contraction passes as Massie and Nicolas round the corner from her coming in.
"Thank the stars your here." Jack releases a breath.
"I was trying to get my car out and a snow plow came by. I waved my hands and they picked me up. We barely got here." Massie shakes her head.
"How are you feeling Holly?" Massie grabs my wrist gently.
"I am fine in between the contractions. There is just a dull ache left behind after some."
"All normal. Can we step into the bedroom so I can see how far you are?"
Massie follows me to the bedroom and Jack steps in with Nicolas on the couch watching the movie.
She helps to pull my sweats off and then I lay on the bed, while she walks to the bathroom and washes up.
"How are you hanging in there Jack?" Massie asks putting on gloves.
"I am just thankful you were able to make it here and safely. So I am good. Do you have everything you need?" He asks as she is checking me.

"Oh yeah, I never leave home without my bag. It has everything from delivery, to weighing the baby, and even some vitamin K." Massie smiles.
"Okay, Holly, you are sitting at five centimeters dilated and almost to six."
I groan and lean my head back.
Jack helps me to put the sweats back on and we all go back to the living room.
"Everything okay?" Nicolas looks up and ask immediately.
"Yes everything is going perfect." Massie smiles to him.
We watch the movie and Jack makes everyone some food for dinner, since we apparently had a late breakfast and missed lunch. I can't even think of eating at the time.
Massie checks me again while Jack and Nicolas clean up the kitchen. I have got no further, which means we may be in for a long night.
The time ticks by and Nicolas can no longer stay awake by time midnight comes around. He fell asleep on the smaller couch and with him already being in his pajamas, Jack carries him to bed.
Feeling another contraction come on, I stand from the couch and walk towards the kitchen table. Holding onto the chairs helps with standing and the gently swaying motion. Just as I reach the chair, liquid rushes down my legs.
"That is good your water just broke." Massie announces and Jack had just started rubbing my back.
I hear a slight sound and focus on it more as the contraction subsides. That little sound I heard is Jack trying to be quiet.
"What's wrong?" I ask him.
"Nothing. Nothing is wrong." His face scrunched up.
"Now is not the time to lie Jack." I huff out as Massie takes a towel to clean the floor with.
"It got on my sock and feels all sorts of wrong."
I can't help but laugh as we walk to the bedroom. Massie pulls the sweats off, as Jack is quickly taking his socks off.
Massie places several blue pads on the bed from her bag and I lay down.

"Well your right at eight centimeters dialted now. It should progress much faster with your water breaking. Your contractions are going to become stronger, just remember to try and breath through each one." Massie barely gets out before one hits.
Jack lays across the bed and grabs my hand, having been in the bathroom to wash them after removing his socks. Because if not that is just gross and I would probably wake Nicolas between yelling and puking everywhere.
It feels like no time and Massie is telling me to push. Trying to stay quiet is the hard part but the pain from everything makes it to where I can barely breath and there is no sound coming from my mouth.
Jack is amazing the entire time, as he holds my hand and keeps saying words of encouragement.
"That is it. You can do this Holly." Jack whispers close to me.
"Push." Massie nods.
"Almost there snowflake, your doing amazing."
Time doesn't seem to matter as I am told to push one last time.
Massie places Eve on my chest and I let out a sob. She is finally here with us in the world.
"You done it, snowflake!" Jack smiles and has tears falling looking at our little girl.
"I can't believe she is here." I smile down at her, holding her close.
Massie goes about doing what needs to be done down there in that area. Once she does, she places a blanket over my legs after replacing the liners. Before she gives the one shot to Eve and cleans her off with me still holding her.
"She has a very strong cry and all the scores for her newborn test are perfect." Massie smiles at us.
I had been so caught up looking at Eve, the doctor side of me wasn't even thinking to start the testing.
"If you place her on this cloth here Dad, I can pick it up easily and get her weight." Massie smiles.
Jack gently takes Eve and they get her weight. Right after Jack puts a diaper on her and then a little outfit, as Massie helps me into clean clothing and replaces the sheets quickly with Jack holding Eve.
I get layed back down and sit up against the headboard. Jack hands Eve to me and I look at her tiny face, already so much in love. He grabs the camera and I lay her down because we want to get her first picture.
"Congratulation to you both. She is perfectly healthy and was born at three thirty-four on December twenty-fifth, weighing eight pounds, two ounces and measuring to be nineteen inchs long. I won't ask her name just yet because I know Nicolas will want to see her next then I will ask all of your together. If it is okay, I am going to lay down on the couch?" Massie smiles at us.
"Of course. Let me grab you some sheets and a blanket." Jack gets them from our closet.
"Thank you so much Massie." I smile at her.
"You know I am always here for you bestie. I am so glad I could help you bring her into the world." Massie hugs me on the side.
She takes the blankets from Jack and leaves closing the door. Jack climbs in bed next to me holding Eve and he kissing me tenderly.
"Merry Christmas my loves. I can't wait for Nicolas to wake up and meet his baby sister. I am so proud of you Holly, your so strong. I love you so much." He kisses me again.
"Thank you Jack for everything. I love you. You have gave me the best gifts of all this Christmas with Nicolas, Eve, and you."

The Ruined Monks of Rothfield Monastery
Erin is the youngest member of the dark monks; a supernatural brotherhood whose ultimate mission is to improve the dire circumstances of poor, war-torn villages using powers unique to each member. Or so he was led to believe. Erin, like his brothers, does not age, and that is, unfortunately, the only trait he shares with them. He cannot charm or compel like Woodrow, he cannot cast illusions like Knox, he was not swift like Swithin, not powerful like Blake. He was barely an assistant to his dear brother Wilbur, with his herbology and alchemy. He was told to lie low and make himself scarce. That is what he did. The dark monks temporarily reside in abandoned monasteries scattered around the country, feeding the poor and healing the sick, nurturing the monastic lands until it was fertile enough to raise crops and rear animals. As the years passed, they would leave these reformed, repopulated, self-sustaining monasteries and venture froth to help the next settlement. Yet, after years of toiling and quiet servitude, Erin notices that people and the country itself are declining. The villagers look gaunt, the once-lush soil now barren and cracked. He begins to feel disheartened, thinking that their mission is proving futile. Still, their leader Blake is steadfast and charges onward, and lately has his eyes set on a certain monastery in a thick, thorned forest that seems to diminish, even nullify their powers. A thick forest that Erin somehow has a connection to. A thorned glade where an ethereal voice calls his name with one simple request along with a promise:Heal the land, child. Heal the land and I promise to give you sanctuary so long as you stay. I promise to nurture you as you nurture me. As Erin cultivates the land, the land, in turn, gifts all its caretakers with new, enhanced skillsets on top of their unique powers -- skills of protection, healing, and magic. Magic. Erin had long wished to see the world fill with it again. The people, regardless of common or noble blood, still believe that magic will enter this world again. Magic to bless the king like it did the Saints. Magic to dispel the miasma befouling the world. Magic to bring back the fae folk and their many forms. It is up to Erin to forge the many paths leading to a bright future; to build a prosperous paradise that welcomes all races and bloodlines, by mastering the rewards gained through agriculture, horticulture, and animal husbandry, smithing, crafting, and fishing. Erin may also find a lifelong friendship and romance with his neighbor, Claude, if he decides to pursue him, and may even join him in the military campaign outside the monastery. The darkness still lurks outside, after all, and the mastery of his skills, along with a few good friends, may finally be enough to turn the tide in their favor. Most of all, Erin wants to keep the vow he set for himself: to protect everyone and everything he loves until his dying breath.
