Jesse opened the door of the house when he came from from shopping. He left the bags on the kitchen and walked out to the pool erea. There he found Pauline sitting on a sunlounger listening to music. During her 28th week of prengancy Pauline's belly was getting bigger and bigger. Yesterday on the ultrasound everything was very normal as each boy weigh 1kg. Their four eyes for both of them have been formed and they looked beautiful even they are 38cm and 40cm.
Jesse walked next to her crossing the pool and he couldn't be more proud of the tree of them. Pauline was wearing a light blue bikini as her both hands were placed gently on her belly. When she heard footsteps she turned. "Hey you!" she told him with a smile. "Hey, you good? Can i get you anything?" he asked and sut on the sunlounger next to her. "Nope, i am fine. Did you buy everything that was on the list?" "Everything." he answered and looked at the pool.
"You know it's a pitty having this wonderfull pool and we can't use it. Doctor said there is no problem swimming on a pool especially when that pool is ours." he looked at her. "It's very hot and i can see you're sweating here." "Okay,okay. But you'll help me get in and out." "Of course and i'll help you, Paul. I'll go wear my swimming shorts and i'll be right back." Jesse said and got up. "Take your time Jess. I'll be there for you is next." Pauline replied as the intro started.
Momments later Pauline and Jesse were walking back in the house dripping water from the pool. "You had a very nice idea." Pauline said as she walked in. "Jesse what the hell is that?" Pauline rolled her eyes as she saw a cage. She walked closer. A white and peach canary just jumped. "That's a canary." Jesse replied and walked closer to the cage. "Isn't he beautiful?" he asked. "Yes, but what does he doing here?" "It's a gift, Pauline. The League started and i already was gone in Utah and you were alone here. I know Louis's death costs you a lot. We'll get a dog when you're ready." he answered.
Pauline looked down to that canary and the canary looked up at her. There she realized she was missing Louis so much. "I miss him too, Pauline. I think he really wanted to meet our boys and play in the garden. Run like crazy after them. I really wanted them to meet him. But you know when the kids grow up we can get one." Jesse said looking at her. "Yeah, we can sure get one." Pauline answered with low voice.
"Why a canary?" she asked him. "You know they sing all the times. So, when i'm gone this little guy will sing to you and you'll not be alone. Plus, i can watch them for hours. I don't kow why, i just do." "Thank you." Pauline answered and smiled. "He needs a name." Jesse said and they both sut next to their new pet. "What about Oscar?" Pauline said suddenly. "Oscar? I like it. And i think is suits him, right Oscar?" Jesse asked the canary. Oscar let a single note. They laughed.
After the luch Jesse was sitting on the couch playing with his phone. pauline came from upstairs and turned on the A/C. It was only the first days in August and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. After leaving her phone on the table she sut next to Jesse. "You know i checked the names you wrote on the list." he said and left his phone next to hers. "I really like Patrick John together." he looked at her. "Sounds good together." "Yeah, PJ sounds really cool. Plus is the first letters of our names." Jesse added. "I don't even thought about that. It's more simbolic that way." Pauline answered.
"Okay, so Patrick John is the one, what about the there other little guy? he deserves to have a cool name too." she said. "Sure. I can think of the one of the two names." "Which is?" "Contastine, your father's name. We want both kids to have greek names. John and Constantine, voila!" Jesse said. "How do you kow John is a greek name too?" Pauline asked suprised. "I did some research. There are more. Jason, Jeremy, George, Bill, Micheal, Paul, Nick, Chris, Peter, Stephen..." Pauline stopped him. "Okay, okay. I see you did a research." Pauline answered. "Constntine is one of my favourites on the list. It's really unique and royale. It was your King. I didn't kow you had a King."
"Yeah, we did. Many, many years ago. When he left my dad wasn't even born. Very long ago." Pauline said. She liked his idea about her father's name. She wanted one of her sons to be called after him but still she wasn't sure if Jesse will have the same opinion about this. Jesse was studying her face. He wasn't sure what she was thining for this long. "Babe." he said and brought her back to reality. "Yes." "What you were thinking all this time?" "Nothing." she answeed. "Okay, so which one?" he asked but she still had that puzzled look on her face. "Name." Jesse said to help her. "Oh yeah names. I like Daniel, Benjamin and Kevin." "For me the top three are William, Noah and Andrew." Jesse answered.
"We have time." "Pauline, in less than two months you are giving birth. We do not have as much as time you think. We need to deside." "Fine, can we deside in a few hours because i want to sleep?" she asked looking at him. Her eyes looked very tired to him. "Okay." he answered and she smiled. He didn't want to her push more on the names thing. "Thank you. Now sit a little higher i want to sleep!" she ordered him. Jesse was looking at her. "Don't look at me. Move!" her eyes rolled. He found her extremly beautiful when she order him to do something.
Eventually Jesse sut right where Pauline wanted him. She lyied there leaning on him. She felt her eyes so heivy and closed them. It took her only a couple of minutes to fall asleep while he was playing with her hair.
Pauline fell asleep and Jesse was sitting on the couch thinking. He couldn't imagine his life anymore. Everything was now getting like they used to be before. In a few months he will have two little humans that will complete his life. He will be a father and that scares him. Even after all those talks with his father Jesse was scared. he was scared if he can't be the father he want or the father their kids deserve. He knew from first hand how is like your father to be gone. He didn't want that for his kids either to Pauline.
He looked down her her. She was so sound sleeping. She looked tiried and yet so much different. She looked so different in his eyes. She had changed a lot the last weeks. Not only physicly but emotionaly too. Hormanies were doing their job, especially when two little humans are moving inside your belly. He couldn't blame her. He was more thankfull to her than any other person on the whole planet. It had crossed his mind that she would leave or worse she would never come back after...
He stopped. That chapter of his or theirs lives was far gone. It has no point thinking what it would had happend if she was still in Greece. All that matters in now and the future. He looked around and heard Oscar singing. He couldn't lie, getting her a canary was one of the best things he had done the past months.
Her phone rung. Pauline moved but she didn't wake up. Jesse raised his head to see the ID and it was Alex. Jesse answered it. "Hello Alex." "Jesse listen to me. Ava is giving birth, i am taking her to the Hospital right now. I had alrready called my parents and they are on their way. Can you please bring Richie and Tori?" Alex told him in a rush. On the backround he could hear Ava heivy breathing. "Yeah, yeah! We are coming." "Okay, thank you. See you there." Alex hung up.
Jesse left her phone on the table and said. "Pauline, hey. Get up we need to go to the hospital." Pauline opened her eyes when she heard the word 'hospital'. She stood up. "What happend? Is everyone alright?" "Everyone is doing fine. Ava is giving birth. We'll pick up Richie and Tori and probably Adam and drove them to the hospital." Jesse informed her. Her eyes opened wide as they got watered. Ava will be a mommy. The best news she could hear right now.
Jesse stood up. He held out his hand to help her get up. "Go to the car and call Richie. I'll take care of the house." he said and Pauline nodded her head. "Don't forget Oscar!" she answeed while she was walking away. Pauline walked outside of the house where Jesse's car was parked. She unlocked it and got in. With her phone in her hands she was now waiting for Richie to pick it up. "Hey, Pauline how are you doing?" she heard his voice. "Did i wake you up?" "No, no. We are watching a movie with Tori." "Is Adam home?" "Yes." Richie answered. All those questions sure were not random. "Pauline what is going on?" "Just be ready all of you. Jesse and i will be there in 15 minutes. Ava is giving birth." she told im.
"Oh my God! My baby girl! Oh my God!" Pauline wasn't sure if she heard those words. Richie told them really quick. "Pauline you here?" he asked several seconds later. "Yep, i'm here. Just hurry Richie." "Yeah." Richie answeed and hung up the phone. Jesse jumped in the car and drove away. "You called him?" he asked. "Yes, they are waiting us." Pauline answered. "How are you feelling?" "I am feelling good. Just want to finish this. It's very painfull." Jesse raised his eyebrew. "You mena you don't want to be prengant ever again?" "I didn't say that. I put so much weight on the last month. I can't stand up by myself, i can't even wear my shocks and shoes Jess. But apart from these, this seven months are the best of my life." Pauline wanted to cry right there, in the car.
Jesse took her left hand. "Just two more months babe. Two more months and we'll be complete." Jesse answered as he saw Richie, Tori and Adam on the road. In a matter of seconds they sut on the backseat. "Jesse hit this fucking gas!" Richie said as they got in. "Richie watch your language in front of Adam." Tori answered immediately. Richie turned to Adam and said "Sorry Adam."
He looked in front. "Jess, son are we going to arrive in the hospital before or after the birth?" "I am doing what i can Richie. Just relax i can hear your heart beating from here." Jesse answered as beatween him and Pauline Richie was there. he might be sitting on the backseat but his head was on the front seat. "Pauline thank you so much for taking us to the hospital." Toria said and paused. "We will go in jail." "Oh come on Tori! You know i can drive without driving lisence. I was driving for years before i got my lisence." Richie looked at her.
"That was more of half a century. Ava did well by taking your lisence. You broke your arm, remember?" "Yes, but hte cops didn't take my license." Richie replied. "Because you gave them an autograph!" Tori answered. She wasn't mad at him at all. She was only worried about him and the other people around him. "Anyway." he looked at Jesse. "Jess please just drive a little faster."
"I thought you wanted to see your daughter." "I do." Richie answered. "So, sit back and enjoy the ride." Jesse answered. He was trying not to laugh from the chat he and Tori had. He finds them funny. He will propably act like that if his daughter was in labor. If he will ever have a baby girl. But this plans seems to belong on the future.
All the five of them walked in the waiting room of the labor. Richie was walking faster by far. There they found Alex sitting. "Alex, where is Ava?" Richie asked him without loosing any time. "She's in labor. Everything is very normal." Alex answered as he stood up. "Can i see her?" "I wanted to see her too, but she wants to be alone." "Okay." Richie answered and walked to the door with the big sing 'labor room. Doctors only.'
"Why nobody is coming?" he asked the rest of them. "Richie relax please. Alex said everything in alright. Let's sit down. Doctors know what they are doing." Tori told her husband. Richie thought about it and she was right, as always. Richie walked back and sut next to Tori and Adam on the one couch. On the other couch were Alex, Jesse and Pauline.
Over an hour passed and the door opened. Richie and Alex rapidly stood up and walked to the doctor. "How are they doctor?" "Alex, everything is okay. The expasions are very close to each other. I believe in 3 or 4 hours the baby will breathe the oxygen of this world." the doctor said. "Great. Please let us know how they are doing." "Will do, Alex. Now, if you exsume me." the doctor said and disappear behind the doors.
Alex and Richie returned back and informed the rest how things were going. "I just can't believe it." Richie said. "I remember the day she was born. I held her in my hands." he held his hands and looked at them. "She was so small and now she'll have her own baby." he said with all the emotions a grandfather could have in momments like these. Tori was gently rubbing his back. "Is just... i don't know how to explain it." he said. "Nobody can." Alex said from the other couch. "All i know is that the next day things will be different."
Some hours later Alex's parents joined them. They were all splitted in all the couches. Alex and Richie were the most nervous. The last minutes were walking up and down to the room. Adam was just waiting. Pauline was leaning in Jesse's showlder. "Pauline you okay?" he asked and looked down at her. "Yeah, i'm fine. Why do you ask?" "Because you haven't said a word since Alex's parents came two hours ago." "I am just tired. That's all." "Do you want to go home? Ava will understand." "No, i promised her i will be there." Pauline said. She will never brake her promise.
"Okay. Are you hungry? Thristy? Want to go to the bathroom?" he asked her. "No, Jess i am fine." she sit up. "What?" he asked. "Nothing. I just sit up. And i think i am hungry." Pauline finished her setence and Jesse had already stood up. "I'll get you a sadwich." he told her. "Does anyone wants anything to eat?" Jesse asked the rest of them. "I do!" Adam answeed in no time. they were sitting there more than three hours now and he got hungry.
"Let's go buddy." Jesse said and waited for Adam. They were walking next to each other. Adam was alittle shorted than Jesse even being only 14 years old. "Exited of having a nephew?" Jesse asked him. "Yeah, how could i not be exited?" "It's really cool being an uncle." Jesse answered. He remembered how he was when Stephanie gave birth to Stevie four years ago. He thought that the day will never pass. It was an endless day but in the end it was worth it.
Minutes later Jesse and Adam returned to the waiting room. Jesse gave Pauline the sandwich he bought. "Did any doctor showed up?" "Nope. We are just waiting here." Pauline answered and took a bite of the sandwich. "That staff is good." she added with half filled mouth. Jesse nodded his head. "You are not hungry? It's been more than six hours since lunch." "No, i am fine." Jesse answered as Pauline continue eatting her sandwich.
The next two hours passed really slow. They all think the clock on the wall was stuck at 11.34 pm. Most of them was beggin feelling sleepy. Adam was half awake and half asleep next to Pauline who was in the same situation as Adam. Everything was so quite and peachfull. The nurses on the front desk changed the shift. People was passing them by but they were still there waiting.
All of them were so tired that they jumped up when the door opened. "Congratulations Alex. Ava just brought to this world a healthy baby boy!" the doctor said with a huge smile of his. Alex covered his mouth with his hand. His eyes opened wide as the docotr shaked his other hand. He is a father. "Thank you. When can i see them?" he asked with socked voice. "The nurses are taking care of the baby and in a few minutes will bring him here. As for Ava in an hour or so. She's very exhausted from the labor." the docotr answered. "Okay. Thank you George." Alex answered. George nodded his head and left.
As he turned back everybody were so emotional about this. Tears of happiness rolled in everyone's cheeks. They hugged and kissed the brand new father. And as the doctor said before a nurse came carrying the newborn boy. Alex froze as he hold that little human in his shaken hands. He was covered by a blue blanket. His eyes were closed and his tiny little hands were closed as a punch. Alex looked to his closed eyes, to his nose, to his mouth and to his ears. Everything was so perfect about him. On his right his parents were looking to the newst memeber of their family. On the left Alex's parents-in-law were looking at their very first grandson.
Unfortunatelly the nurse has to take back the baby so he can feed and sleep. The nurse also told him that Ava was waiting for him in her room. But only him. He was ready to see her. he was wating all those hours for her. Alex just walked to her room and found her and their son together. He smiled and walked closer to the bed. He sut and put his left arm around her showlders. "I love you." he said and kissed her. "I love you too." she answered.
They both looked down to their son. "He is beautiful." Ava said while he was holding him. A pair of green eyes opened sow slowly that any timer could ever count. They smiled and cryied in the same time. A nurse walked in the room. "Congratulations!" she said with a smile. "Have you desided the name?" "Yes." Ava said and looked at Alex. "It's Benjamin Richard Wilson." Ava added and saw the nurse taking her son out of the room. "It sound better that Micheal Richard Wilson." Alex said. "I know, beacuse i was the one who suggested it." she answered. "Yes, my lady!"
Jesse walked next to her crossing the pool and he couldn't be more proud of the tree of them. Pauline was wearing a light blue bikini as her both hands were placed gently on her belly. When she heard footsteps she turned. "Hey you!" she told him with a smile. "Hey, you good? Can i get you anything?" he asked and sut on the sunlounger next to her. "Nope, i am fine. Did you buy everything that was on the list?" "Everything." he answered and looked at the pool.
"You know it's a pitty having this wonderfull pool and we can't use it. Doctor said there is no problem swimming on a pool especially when that pool is ours." he looked at her. "It's very hot and i can see you're sweating here." "Okay,okay. But you'll help me get in and out." "Of course and i'll help you, Paul. I'll go wear my swimming shorts and i'll be right back." Jesse said and got up. "Take your time Jess. I'll be there for you is next." Pauline replied as the intro started.
Momments later Pauline and Jesse were walking back in the house dripping water from the pool. "You had a very nice idea." Pauline said as she walked in. "Jesse what the hell is that?" Pauline rolled her eyes as she saw a cage. She walked closer. A white and peach canary just jumped. "That's a canary." Jesse replied and walked closer to the cage. "Isn't he beautiful?" he asked. "Yes, but what does he doing here?" "It's a gift, Pauline. The League started and i already was gone in Utah and you were alone here. I know Louis's death costs you a lot. We'll get a dog when you're ready." he answered.

It was only the first days in August and the weather was getting hotter and hotter. After leaving her phone on the table she sut next to Jesse. "You know i checked the names you wrote on the list." he said and left his phone next to hers. "I really like Patrick John together." he looked at her. "Sounds good together." "Yeah, PJ sounds really cool. Plus is the first letters of our names." Jesse added. "I don't even thought about that. It's more simbolic that way." Pauline answered.
"Okay, so Patrick John is the one, what about the there other little guy? he deserves to have a cool name too." she said. "Sure. I can think of the one of the two names." "Which is?" "Contastine, your father's name. We want both kids to have greek names. John and Constantine, voila!" Jesse said. "How do you kow John is a greek name too?" Pauline asked suprised. "I did some research. There are more. Jason, Jeremy, George, Bill, Micheal, Paul, Nick, Chris, Peter, Stephen..." Pauline stopped him. "Okay, okay. I see you did a research." Pauline answered. "Constntine is one of my favourites on the list. It's really unique and royale. It was your King. I didn't kow you had a King."
"Yeah, we did. Many, many years ago. When he left my dad wasn't even born. Very long ago." Pauline said. She liked his idea about her father's name.

"Okay, so which one?" he asked but she still had that puzzled look on her face. "Name." Jesse said to help her. "Oh yeah names. I like Daniel, Benjamin and Kevin." "For me the top three are William, Noah and Andrew." Jesse answered.
"We have time." "Pauline, in less than two months you are giving birth. We do not have as much as time you think. We need to deside." "Fine, can we deside in a few hours because i want to sleep?" she asked looking at him. Her eyes looked very tired to him. "Okay." he answered and she smiled. He didn't want to her push more on the names thing. "Thank you. Now sit a little higher i want to sleep!" she ordered him. Jesse was looking at her. "Don't look at me. Move!" her eyes rolled. He found her extremly beautiful when she order him to do something.

"Yeah, how could i not be exited?" "It's really cool being an uncle." Jesse answered. He remembered how he was when Stephanie gave birth to Stevie four years ago. He thought that the day will never pass. It was an endless day but in the end it was worth it.
Minutes later Jesse and Adam returned to the waiting room. Jesse gave Pauline the sandwich he bought. "Did any doctor showed up?" "Nope. We are just waiting here." Pauline answered and took a bite of the sandwich. "That staff is good." she added with half filled mouth. Jesse nodded his head. "You are not hungry? It's been more than six hours since lunch." "No, i am fine." Jesse answered as Pauline continue eatting her sandwich.
The next two hours passed really slow. They all think the clock on the wall was stuck at 11.34 pm. Most of them was beggin feelling sleepy. Adam was half awake and half asleep next to Pauline who was in the same situation as Adam. Everything was so quite and peachfull. The nurses on the front desk changed the shift. People was passing them by but they were still there waiting.
All of them were so tired that they jumped up when the door opened. "Congratulations Alex. Ava just brought to this world a healthy baby boy!" the doctor said with a huge smile of his. Alex covered his mouth with his hand. His eyes opened wide as the docotr shaked his other hand. He is a father. "Thank you. When can i see them?" he asked with socked voice. "The nurses are taking care of the baby and in a few minutes will bring him here. As for Ava in an hour or so. She's very exhausted from the labor." the docotr answered. "Okay. Thank you George." Alex answered. George nodded his head and left.
As he turned back everybody were so emotional about this. Tears of happiness rolled in everyone's cheeks. They hugged and kissed the brand new father. And as the doctor said before a nurse came carrying the newborn boy. Alex froze as he hold that little human in his shaken hands. He was covered by a blue blanket. His eyes were closed and his tiny little hands were closed as a punch. Alex looked to his closed eyes, to his nose, to his mouth and to his ears. Everything was so perfect about him. On his right his parents were looking to the newst memeber of their family. On the left Alex's parents-in-law were looking at their very first grandson.
Unfortunatelly the nurse has to take back the baby so he can feed and sleep. The nurse also told him that Ava was waiting for him in her room. But only him. He was ready to see her. he was wating all those hours for her. Alex just walked to her room and found her and their son together. He smiled and walked closer to the bed. He sut and put his left arm around her showlders. "I love you." he said and kissed her. "I love you too." she answered.
They both looked down to their son. "He is beautiful." Ava said while he was holding him. A pair of green eyes opened sow slowly that any timer could ever count. They smiled and cryied in the same time. A nurse walked in the room. "Congratulations!" she said with a smile. "Have you desided the name?" "Yes." Ava said and looked at Alex. "It's Benjamin Richard Wilson." Ava added and saw the nurse taking her son out of the room. "It sound better that Micheal Richard Wilson." Alex said. "I know, beacuse i was the one who suggested it." she answered. "Yes, my lady!"
