Beyond the Woods: Happily Ever After
The End.
Five Years Later
"It's okay baby you can do this!" Christian encouraged.
I laid there, feeling terrible pain in the hospital bed, thinking about how much has changed within the past five years of my life.
*************************************************************
FLASHBACK
I fell in love with Christian Calivastro, the man of dreams. The only man I ever have and ever will devote my heart to.
I was kidnapped and abused by one of our Kingdoms most feared enemies, who in the end failed.
A man who tormented me my whole life expressed his love for me, and I rejected him.
I married Christian, we had an amazing ceremony, and I became Mrs. Calivastro.
Our honeymoon was one of the best experiences of my life. Christian surprised me and flew me out to Bora Bora, where he owned a beautiful island. And we finally made love to each other for the first time.
I became the Queen of our Empire and have been taking problems as they come. Everyone says I am doing a "Fine Job" but I'm not totally sure about that. The responsibility was a handful, but I would not have it any other way.
Sean and Emma were married, no surprise there I could always see it happening. It was interesting though, to introduce Emma into our world.
And finally now, the present, I am lying in an uncomfortable hospital bed awaiting the arrival of our first-born child.
"Come on Ava, baby, push!" Christian insisted.
"Why don't you try pushing an eight pound baby out of your body?!" I screamed frustrated.
"Sorry, it's the hormones?" I tried apologizing.
Christian just stared at me with loving eyes. "You can yell and scream however much you want, love. I am so proud of you. You can do this!"
"Okay." I cried.
"One more push, the baby's crowning." Doctor Peterson said.
With all the strength I had left in me, I gave a final push and felt relief flush into me.
The little wails coming from beneath me was the only thing that kept me from passing out of exhaustion.
Christian and I wanted the gender of the baby to be a complete surprise, so when I hear the doctor's next words, I am overcome with joy.
"Congratulations, it's a girl." Dr. Peterson smiled.
"Oh, Christian." I cried. "She's perfect."
Dr. Peterson placed her in my arms and I felt the tears escape my eyes, as I looked down into a replica of Christian and I.
"She's beautiful, just like her mother." He beamed.
"What shall we name her?" Christian questioned.
"Hmm… I like Gemma." I stated with confidence.
"Gemma, it is." He smiled.
"Gemma Liliana Calivastro." I smiled.
I couldn't muster up any words. I was so over filled with love and joy. Nothing could ruin this moment, absolutely nothing.
I get to spend the rest of my life with my beautiful, loving family in our home that will always be Beyond the Woods.
