// Skylar Blayke
Gigi was finally at the hospital, laying in the bed and starting to shake one of her legs a bit nervously. As expected, things had moved pretty quickly and she knew that it wouldn't be too long before they met their little girl. She had been pretty calm since they got to the hospital but now she was starting to get nervous that her sister wouldn't make it in time and that the anesthesiologist wouldn't make it out of the c-section he was in to get there in time for her to get an epidural, either.
Zayn immediately picked up on her nervous leg shake and he placed his free hand down on it, rubbing small circles over the blankets. "Relax, Gi. It's okay, everything will work out." He whispers softly, trying to keep his voice calm for her. He hated seeing her so uncomfortable.
Gigi stops her leg when she feels his hand on it. She nods, knowing that in the end, everything will work out exactly the way it's supposed to. "I know," she whispers. "I really just want my sister to get here. I'll suffer through the lack of pain meds if I have to."
Zayn bites his lip and nods, knowing how close that are and how sad she'd be if her sister couldn't make it. "She'll be here as soon as she can, she's already on her way. I don't think Skylar will come that soon, babe. It's going to be fine." He lifts the hand that he's holding and presses a gentle kiss to the back of it.
Gigi turns a little bit so she can face him and reaches out to take his hand again. "Alright. I won't worry too much, then." She shrugs softly. She knew there was no use in getting upset or worked up so she just sighed and put her head back against the pillows while she actually had peace from the pain.
Zayn "Promise she'll be here and if she isn't, then you can kick me where it hurts a hundred times." He chuckles softly, trying to lighten the mood as he clasps her hand with both of his.
Gigi can't help but laugh a little at that and nods. "I think a kick in the where it hurts area will be more appropriate if I do this without drugs." She points out, relaxing when she feels his hands in hers.
Zayn smiles a little bit more, "I'd gladly let you do that, I'm sure it'll hurt a whole lot less than what you're going through. I doubt that you won't be able to get the meds, though."
Gigi shrugs, "I would never kick you. I love your where it hurts area way too much to do that," she winks. "I also am really not that worried about whether I get it or not. Part of me's kind of always wanted to try it. Think of how much of a badass I'll be if I do it..."
Zayn laughs when she says that and shakes his head a little, "I'm so glad that you love it. Then again, I kind of already know," he winks as well. "Well, I think you're certainly strong enough and you'd be able to do it. You're already a bad ass, it'd probably make you even more badass."
Gigi "Hard not to know. I've let you do this to me three times," she teases as she giggles softly. "I kind of think I could do it, too. I don't know. Maybe I'm wrong and you're wrong and I'll end up seriously regretting it but I think I really wanna try." She whispers, biting her bottom lip.
Zayn "Exactly, I definitely know that you love me," he replies, laughing softly after. "I think you could do it, but it's definitely up to you. You just have to remember that once you get so far along, you can't get it. I don't want that to scare you at all, I just want to remind you. You're so amazing and strong, though. I bet you'll breeze through it."
Gigi thinks for a couple of seconds before she nods. "If you believe in me this much, I know that I can do it. As long as I have you with me, I can get through it. It's not gonna last forever and I'm already almost there." She points out. "It's an absolute done deal if I get extra cuddles when it's over..." She grins, tilting her head in question.
Zayn rubs her arm gently, "Well, don't worry. I'm not going anywhere, I'm staying right here with you." He leans forward and presses a gentle kiss on her forehead. "Extra cuddles? Hm, I think I can do that."
Gigi "You're the best, thank you. I know I'm annoying at the moment but you still don't leave my side. I'm a lucky lady." She whispers, a soft smile filling her face. "Mhm. That's all I want and you give the best."
Zayn: "You are not annoying," he instantly shakes his head. "Besides, you'd have every right to be. You're doing a very hard thing right now." He smiles, "Good, that's exactly what you'll get."
Gigi "I am kind of annoying but I suppose you're right. I wish this was way easier than it is," she teases. "I'm already excited. I can't wait to cuddle you and our girl. It's going to make this all worth it."
Zayn shakes his head again, "Stop saying that, you are not annoying." He reassures her. "I'm excited too, it's going to be amazing."
Gigi "Alright, alright. I'm not annoying," she laughs, sticking her tongue out at him. "It is going to be super amazing," she agrees before her body tenses up and she feels another contraction starting.
Zayn: "Can't wait to meet and snuggle with our new baby girl." He says softly, noticing right away when another one is coming along. He keeps his hands around hers and stays quiet for a moment before speaking, "You've got this baby girl, I love you."
Gigi "I can't wait, either. I wonder if she's gonna look like me or you or one of the other kids." She says, letting her mind wander for a second. She squeezes his hands tight and reaches with her free one to grip onto their hands as well. Her breathing speeds up a bit and she can't help but whine a little as the pain seems to peak.
Zayn "I think that she'll like all of us, don't worry too much about that." Zayn smiles softly. He lets her squeeze his hand as tightly as possible and keeps his eyes locked on her. "Breathe, baby. Don't get yourself worked up. You've got this."
Gigi "Of course she'll like all of us, silly. I want to know who she's gonna look like," Gigi adds in. She listens to his voice and nods, letting out a slow breath as she does start to relax a little bit. The pain eventually starts to slowly dissipate and she smiles again. "Easy peasy," she teases.
Zayn lets her relax before he responds and laughs softly, "I'm glad it was easy. I bet she's going to look like the perfect mixture of you and me, just like the others."
Gigi nods, "I think she will, too. And honestly, she could come out looking like a monkey and I'd still be as obsessed with her as I am with the other two."
Zayn: "Yeah, I think it'll be almost impossible to not fall in love with her the second we see her. Our little angel."
Gigi "It kind of always surprises me how easily we just fall in love all over again. The second she's here, it's like she's been here forever."
Zayn shrugs, "It doesn't really surprise me. I'm already in love with her, from the second I found out."
Gigi "Ugh, stop. You can't be this adorable right now or I'm seriously going to cry forever..."
Zayn: "Please don't cry, I'm enjoying seeing you so happy and excited." He laughs.
Gigi "I know the tears will come eventually but for now, I'm enjoying this as well. As painful as it is, this really is kind of magical."
Zayn nods, "I'm going to cry as well, I'm sure." He shrugs. "Magical? Yeah, I'd say so."
Gigi "You definitely will. You're a big sap when it comes to your babies," she teases. "It is. The most magical moment."
Zayn: "Of course I am, I can't help it!" He admits happily, squeezing her hand gently.
Gigi "It's cause you're the best daddy in the world. They're so lucky to have you."
Zayn: "And they're also very luck to have you, my love."
Gigi smiles and leans in to peck his lips. Just as she does, she hears the door open and sighs loudly in relief when she sees that it's her sister. She instantly feels at peace when she knows that they're both there now and she's more than ready to just have this baby already.
Zayn looks up when Bella comes in and smiles softly, greeting her. "See, told you she'd be here." He tells Gigi, laughing softly.
Gigi "Guess you really are always right," she winks before turning a bit to give her sister a hug. She never lets go of Zayn's hands, though and even while she's talking to her sister, Zayn is always in her line of vision.
Zayn makes sure to stay where he's seated, not wanting her to worry about him getting up and leaving.
Gigi feels mostly calmer now that they're both here but the pain is definitely increasing and she knows that things are getting close to happening. At one point, she's in mid conversation to her sister when she turns back to face Zayn. "I-I think I need someone. A doctor, something. Please."
Zayn looks down down at her and quickly nods, "Okay, okay. Just take some deep breaths." He whispers softly as he quickly pushes the button to alert the nurses.
Gigi nods and does just that, at least at first. Her breathing starts to quicken a little bit and her legs start to kind of squirm all over the bed frantically. She feels relatively calm on the inside but her body isn't quite sure it agrees.
Zayn sees her moving around so quickly and bites his lip, "It's alright, baby girl. Calm down, okay? It's alright, they're coming." He gets down beside her and starts to rub her legs again, attempting to calm her down.
Gigi nods, looking up at him to try to calm herself more. "I-I'm okay. I don't know why I'm freaking out. It's gonna be fine. It's always fine." She whispers, saying that out loud more to herself than to anyone else.
Zayn nods as well and gently runs his fingers through her hair, "You're freaking out because you're nervous, but you really are okay. Don't want you to make yourself sick or anything." He whispers to her quietly, thankful when the nurses finally walk into the room.
Gigi squeezes her eyes shut for a few seconds, trying to force the nerves to go away. She doesn't want to make herself sick, either, so she does whatever she has to do to relax in the moment. When the nurses come in, they move quickly around the room. Since this is her third child, they trust her feelings and call her doctor to come in as well. Everything seems to move quickly and within minutes, Gigi is all prepped for delivery.
Zayn stays close to her, completely distracted by how she's feeling to even be bothered to let his excitement set in. "It's all going to be over so soon." He reassures her, relaxing a bit himself when she's ready to deliver.
Gigi grips Zayn's hand in one of hers and Bella's in the other, focusing on what he's saying and also on the doctor as she starts to give her some kind of instruction. Just wanting to get this over with, Gigi pushes as soon as she knows she can. She gives it her all right from the start, telling herself just to get it done quickly.
Zayn feels his excitement bubbling up now as she begins to push. He's surprised that she's already giving it her all, but he's definitely happy about that. "There you go, good job." He encourages, keeping his face kind of close to hers so that she can hear him but so that he's also not up in her space.
Gigi is determined to do this and she continues to give it her all until she literally is desperate for a break. She lets out a soft groan of pain and lays back against the pillow. She feels tears welling up in her eyes as she tries to pull Zayn a little closer. "I-It hurts."
Zayn pushes her hair back gently and presses a kiss to her forehead, "I know it does. You're a bad ass, though. Remember? You can do it."
Gigi feels like she could really cry at any minute but of course, her husband always knows what to say to make it better. "I-I can do it," she repeats and starts to push again when the doctor instructs her to.
Zayn shakes his head, "Don't say that, you can do it. You're super strong, I believe in you."
Gigi want to protest but she knows she has to just keep going, so she does. It's only a few minutes later that the doctor announces that she can see their baby's head and she nods. "I-If I wasn't in the process of dying, I'd make a super sarcastic comment right now." She says through another little pained whine.
Zayn "You're not dying, Gi. I promise. You can do it, just a little bit more.." He tries his best to encourage her.
Gigi nods and continues to give it one hundred percent. She cries out, feeling just about everything as their baby slowly starts to make her appearance. With one final push and the tiniest of screams, their baby girl comes all the way out. She holds her breath nervously until she finally hears the tiny cries escape her and hearing her cry opens the floodgates for Gigi as well.
Zayn continues to encourage her and when Sky has finally made her entrance, he gasps and his face lights up with excitement. "You did it!" He smiles wide and looks between Sky and Gigi, a proud look on his face. "I'm so proud of you." He whispers and leans down to peck her lips, tears welling up in his eyes.
Gigi can't hold back her tears as the baby is placed on her chest. She leans up to kiss Zayn back, a huge grin on her face as she stares up at him in disbelief. "I can't believe I did that. Holy crap!" She whispers, kissing him again quickly and then looking down at their baby girl. "Oh my gosh. She's perfect. She's got the cheeks!"
Zayn: "You did do it!" He laughs and pushes her hair back again, "and I'm so freaking proud of you." He smiles and looks down at Skylar, taking in every inch of her tiny frame. "She does, super chubby and kissable cheeks. She is absolutely perfect."
Gigi "I love you so much. Couldn't have done it without you," she tells him with another huge smile. "They're so kissable. I can't wait to smother her in kisses." She laughs, looking down at Skylar before looking up at the nurse who is already wanting to take her away to clean her up a bit.
Zayn: "I love you too, sweetheart." He replies, looking down at her. "I can't wait either, our perfect angel."
Gigi feels like her heart can fall out of her chest, she's so obsessed with the two of them. She makes a noise of protest when the weight of the baby is lifted from her chest and she looks up at Zayn. "Go with her. I'm okay, I've got Bella." She reassures him.
Zayn: "Are you sure?" He asks before leaning down and kissing her forehead again. "I'll be right back."
Gigi nods, "I want her to have you with her." She says, looking up at him again. "Okay. Be quick."
Zayn heads over to where they're cleaning and measuring Sky and he instantly tears up again at the sight of their new baby girl. She's definitely perfect.
Gigi hugs her sister and tries to stay distracted while things finish up with her and in a few minutes, they have her comfortable in the bed. Bella offers to go to the hall to call their mom and Gigi looks over at Zayn when she's gone. "Is she perfect? I want to see her."
Zayn smiles when the nurses finally hand her over all wrapped up, "She's absolutely perfect." He tells her, walking over to Gigi with Sky cradled in his arms.
Gigi feels herself about to cry again when she sees the two of them walking over to her. "Oh my gosh. Look at my two perfect babies. I'm gonna cry..."
Zayn smiles even more and gently hands Skylar over to Gigi, "She's so perfect."
Gigi takes Skylar in her arms and definitely does cry a little when she gets a good look at her face. "She looks so much like you, babe. And so much like Harper."
Zayn nods, "She does. She's absolutely gorgeous."
Gigi "So gorgeous. I don't think I'm ever gonna want to stop looking at her."
