The Calm

Austin's POV

My new cell phone ringing woke me up. My eyes shot open, and I just barely pulled away from Alan to answer it.

"Hello." I groaned.

"Austin!" It was Gielle's voice. "My water broke!"

My eyes widened. "O-okay, Alan and I will meet you up at the hospital!" I hung up the phone and got out of bed.

"Alan!" I shouted. "Come on, we gotta go!" I pulled a pair of my favorite black skinny jeans. Alan just groaned and rolled over. I pulled the blankets off of him and threw them on the floor. I grabbed his chest and started shaking him.

"Alan! Come on!" I shouted. Finally, he sat up. He rubbed his eyes. He was going to slow, so I grabbed his hand and lifted him off of the bed and onto the floor.

"Gielle's water broke, we have to go to the hospital." I said. I slipped on one of my favorite sweatshirts and put on my black converse. Austin threw on sweatpants and the first shirt he could find. We ran to my car and got in and I sped to the hospital.

"Is it a boy or girl?" Alan asked as we drove.

"I don't know, she wanted it as a surprise." I rolled my eyes. "It's so fucking stupid." I hated Gielle so much, I just wanted my baby.

When we were finally at the hospital Alan and I ran through the door and to the recession desk.

"Excuse me, what floor is Gielle Car- Gielle Hellevig?" I couldn't believe I almost asked what floor Gielle Carlile was on. I sighed and thanked the lady when she told us where she was. We quickly ran to the elevator and Alan repeatedly pressed the 5 button. I could tell he was excited for the baby. The doors closed and we started going up.

"Oh my fucking God!" Alan shouted. "Austin!"

"What?" I asked, Alan scaring me.

"Ugh, if it's a boy, we're going to have to redo the nursery! I painted it white!" He groaned and dropped his head into his hands.

I couldn't help but smile. I slipped my hand around Alan's waist. "Baby, it'll be okay." I said, kissing his cheek. Alan smiled and buried his head into my shoulder.

"What are you doing?" I asked, giggling. He didn't answer, and he left his face on my shoulder. He was so adorable! I couldn't help but kiss the top of his head.

The doors finally opened, and I had to pull away from Alan. I took his hand and led him to Gielle's room. We barged in, not knocking or anything.

The doctor gave us a dirty look. "Excuse me-"

"That's my ex-husband." Gielle quickly cut him off. I was disgusted to see the man she had cheated on me with was standing right next to her, holding her hand. Ronnie Radkie. I sneered, and looked away from him. I suddenly flashed back to the night I caught Gielle and Ronnie.

"Gielle! I-" I stopped talking when I heard screaming. I had a bouquet of roses behind my back, and I was home from work early. I had decided to surprise her with some roses, since it was our 2 year anniversary of being married.

I started walking to the source of the screaming. It turned out to be in my bedroom. I opened the door quietly and was horrified to see Gielle laying on my bed, Ronnie Radkie on top of her pile-driving her. I dropped the roses, horrified at what I was seeing. My wife, having an affair, on my bed.

"Get the fuck out!" I screamed. They both looked at me, horrified. I didn't care though. Ronnie put on his clothes and quickly left.

My hands were balled in fists, and I saw Gielle was standing there, a blanket around her. "You too. Get the fuck out." I said through gritted teeth.

"But Austin-"

"GET OUT!" I screamed. She put on her clothes and left.

When I knew she was gone for good I went into the bathroom and pulled out a blade. I pushed it down and ripped it across my skin. Blood started pouring out, but I didn't care. The pain seemed to make everything better. I did it again, and again, and again, until finally my wrist couldn't take it anymore.

"Austin!" Alan shouted, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Gielle's about to push out the baby." I watched as she pushed the baby out, while Alan turned around and covered his eyes. Finally the baby came out, and the doctor picked it up.

"It's... a girl!" He announced, smiling. He started to hand it to Gielle when she stopped him.

"He's the one taking care of it." She said, her words as cold as ice as she pointed to me. The doctor wrapped the baby in a pink blanket and handed her to me.

"Congratulations!" He said, smiling.

I smiled at the baby, she was so adorable. She had my brown eyes, and- was that a patch of red hair on her head?

"She's a ginger!" Alan exclaimed. "Alright!"

The doctor laughed. "It's a recessive trait."

I rocked the baby, and she smiled at me. I kissed her on the lips, and she giggled.

"Whose a cutie?" I cooed, smiling. "You are!" She giggled furiously.

"Do you have any names picked out yet?" The doctor asked.

"Tayuh." Alan immediately answered.

The doctor smiled. "Ahw, what a cute name!" He gushed. Gielle started screaming, and the doctor turned to her. "Looks like you've got another one coming!" The doctor called.

"TWINS?!" Alan practically screamed. He turned white as a ghost and his eyes rolled to the back of his head and he fell backwards. I caught him just in time and set him down on the empty bed that was next to Gielle's. The baby came out, and the doctor announced it was a boy. He wrapped him in a blue blanket and handed him to me.

"Whats his name?" The doctor asked.

"I don't know yet." I said awkwardly.

The doctor smiled. "You take your time, and I'll be back soon." The doctor got off his stool and left the room. Alan gained consciousness and stood up.

"It's a boy?" Alan asked. I nodded. Alan smiled. "Let's name it after you!"

I shook my head no. I stared at the baby for a little while. "I think we'll name him... Oliver."

Alan smiled. "I like that name, it's cute." I handed Oliver to Alan. Alan started talking to the baby, and Oliver giggled. I couldn't help but smile, it was all to cute.

"Our twins are perfect." Alan smiled. I nodded in agreement and kissed Tayuh's nose. I looked back at Alan, and saw he was playing peek-a-boo with Oliver. Oliver was laughing loudly, a big smile on his face, his beautiful brown eyes filled with happiness. I could tell Alan would be a great parent.
