《My Best Friend's Baby》Chapter:12

"You had her?!" Alice asks in a shocked tone.
"Yeah. I would've called but I have been so busy with everything that I didn't think about it." I say. I feel awful for upsetting everyone.
"C-can we come visit and meet the baby?" Abbi asks.
"Well of course,she's your granddaughter. I wouldn't keep her from you just because of what Josh did." I say. "I'll text you my mom's address when I get off of the phone. Y'all could even stay a couple days here if y'all want."
"Okay we'll be over there as soon as we can." she says.
"Okay. I have to go, Olivia's getting fussy. I'll see you when y'all get here."
Abbi says bye before hanging up the phone, as soon as the call ends Olivia starts crying, mom hands her to me so that I can feed her.
"Josh's parents and sister are coming to visit and see Olivia." I tell my mom. "I hope it's okay that I told them they could."
"Of course it's fine sweetie,there's plenty of room at the house for everyone to stay."
"Thanks mom."
My mom leaves a while later she goes home to get everything ready for when Josh's parents get here.
Becky and Aaron are working on putting the nursery together for me, i'm so grateful that I have so many people around that are willing to help me with that kind of stuff.
I take Olivia and put her into her crib and then I lay down and fall asleep.
*****
We're on our way home, i'm so glad to get to go home. To be honest the hospital bed wasn't to comfortable, i'll be glad to sleep in my own bed again.
I can't wait for Alice to meet Olivia, she is going to love her so much.

Josh's parents and Alice got here last night. They didn't come see me in the hospital cause they knew I would be coming home today so they said they would just wait til I got home.
The closer we get to home the more excited I get.
When we get home I have a huge smile on my face, I unstrap Olivia's car seat and get her out of the car then we walk inside,everyone is in the living room watching t.v. when they hear me come in they all turn around with smiles on their faces. I sit Olivia's
Car seat on an armchair and take her out, I walk over to where Abbi and James are sitting and hand her to Abbi. She looks down at her and smiles even bigger than she already was.
"Claire, she's beautiful." James says.
"Thank you." I say.
They all pass Olivia around taking turns holding her. Everyone loves her.
I think Alice loves her more than anyone.
After a while of passing Olivia around she gets fussy so I take her upstairs to the nursery to change her diaper.
The nursery is all put together and I love it so much. Everything's perfect.
Becky and Aaron left earlier today they came to the hospital to tell me bye, they had to go do more stuff for college since it start next week.
I change Olivia and go back down stairs to fix her a bottle. I go back into the living room with everyone, I move the car seat out of the arm chair and take a seat.
We all sit around and talk for a while, my mom and Abbi go start dinner leaving me,James and Alice.
"I'm proud of you Claire, and i'm sorry for all this crap Josh has put you through." James says.

"Thank you, it's okay. I'm getting over everything, I have to be strong for Olivia." I say.
He gives me a small smile. Olivia falls asleep so I take her and lay her back down in her car seat so that she can be more comfortable.
Mom comes and tells us that dinner is ready so we all get up and go have dinner. After I eat I go upstairs and place Olivia in her crib before I have a quick shower, after I shower I lay down in bed and watch a little t.v. until I fall asleep.
*****
It's been a couple days since we came home home from the hospital, it's been wonderful having Josh's family here but unfortunately they have to leave today.
Mom has to work today so after they leave i'm going to be home with Olivia by ourselves for the first time, I won't lie i'm rather nervous about it but I know we'll be fine.
I have a quickly check on Olivia,She's asleep so I decide to take a shower right fast. I grab a towel and wash rag from the linen closet before heading to the bathroom. When I get out of the shower I wrap myself in a towel and go to my room to change. I put on some comfy clothes since it's just gonna be me and Olivia here today.
I hear Olivia start crying just as I finish getting dressed so I go into her room,I pick her up and go downstairs.
I make her a bottle and give it to her once she's done eating I burp her then I take her to the living room and put her in her swing. I decide to make myself breakfast,I make myself some toast and eggs while periodically checking on Olivia. When I finish making my breakfast I go to the living room so I can watch Liv while I eat, I decided to call her Liv for short.
I decide to call Nikki and see how she's doing, I haven't talked to her in a while.
She picks up after a few rings.
"Hello?"
"Hey Nikki. How's everything going?"
"Everything's going good. How's everything with you? I heard about what Josh did."
"We're fine. I had Olivia almost a week ago."
"Oh Claire that's wonderful!" Nikki says, and I can hear the smile in her voice. "I wish I could meet her. What's she like?"
"She's perfect. I'll send you a picture later. She has dark hair and green eyes like Josh,my mom says she has some of my facial features like my nose." I say with a small laugh.
"Aww she sounds adorable. I can't wait til I get to meet her." she says.
"Claire, which name do you like better Mason or Michael?"
"Umm.. I like Mason better. Why?"
"Those are the 2 names we're deciding between for our baby. I just wanted your opinion."
"Oh okay." I say with a laugh.
I hear Liv start fussing so I get off the phone and go change her diaper, as soon as I finish changing her I hear the doorbell ring.

The Simulations
After ascending from his last life to become a Champion our hero has his memories locked. He is told that he must compete in competitive simulations against other Champions in order to earn enough to continue to simulate his consciousness. The competitive simulations have a variety of scenario genres, and may or may not have a game interface. The first competitive simulation our hero faces is from the Summoned Hero/Traveller to a New World genre, and is set as Fantasy Realistic - no game interface. He must ensure that the person he chose in the simulation's setup survives the end of the world in order to win. Author's note: I'm committing to one arc of four books. The arc has its own complete storyline. And each book has its own individual storyline as well. Each book also has 60 chapters, for a total commitment of 240 chapters. I'm aiming for a release schedule of a chapter every 23 hours.

Memoirs of an old traveler:First Rebirth
If life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Life sometimes gives you handouts and sometimes not, how would you take control of your life or would you let yourself be adrift on the sea. This is my story of rebirth, the start of a journey between the worlds. Will you take heart from the lessons I have learned or will you take without giving and continue the cycle? ___________________________________ A story with my take on reincarnation, expect somewhat of a more serious writing style but still a bit casual. I like to story build, to craft a universe, so don't expect quick action. Can be a bit of a heavy info read at times so if you don't like that best steer away. Chapters are expected to be at least 1 a week perhaps 2 a week depending on response and how much of an inspiration I get. Credits to multiple authors(too many to count/remember) of both web/light novels and the authors here on RRL for inspiration.
