A/N - I am currently in the year 2022 for this story  

*Thursday April 21st*

Hanna's POV

Our baby's due date was almost here. Officially he is due in 2 days on the 23rd but Deylia and Tyler were both born on the 21st of the month.

"Do you really have to go into work today?" I asked Caleb

"Yes but only for a meeting." Caleb said

"Can't you just use Skype from the house to your work?" I asked

"Normally I could but I have to help the manager give a presentation. There is a lot more responsibility being an assistant manager." Caleb said

"How long is this presentation going to last?" I asked

"I have no idea but I will text you to check in later. I'm leaving my cell phone on even though I'm really not supposed to so call me only if there's an emergency." Caleb said

"Is there anyway to fake sick and get the meeting postponed?" I asked

"No sorry Han. Mona temporally living with us while Mike is in LA for school and I trust her 100 percent." Caleb said

"You are never there with me the moment I go into labor. With Deylia you were in NYC getting Lunch at a deli, with Tyler you were at a baseball game in New York. I thought this time you would be home with me." I said

"How do you know it's going to be today, we still have 2 days until your due date Han?" Caleb asked

"Think about it Caleb. Deylia was born July 21st and Tyler was born September 21st. If you follow the pattern he will also be born on the 21st and today is April 21st." I said

"Wow, I didn't even think of that." Caleb said

"I outsmarted you Caleb. I deserve something for that." I said

"What you deserve is a stress free day." Caleb said

"With 2 kids and now almost 3 that isn't going to happen." I said

"I will find a way to make that happen Hanna. We both need and deserve a stress free day." Caleb said

"I would be less stressed if you stayed with me. I know you trust Mona and she has Madison so it's not like she doesn't have any kids but what I really need is you." I said

"If I could think of a way out of this meeting I would but if I still want my job then there really isn't a way out." Caleb said

Caleb left for work just as Mona was getting back from her morning jog so I wasn't alone for even a minute.

"Have a nice jog?" I asked

"Yes but it would have been nice if someone would have joined me." Mona said

"Sorry Mona, I can't right now but after the baby is born I'm going to need help loosing this baby weight again." I said

"Caleb wanted me to tell you to relax." Mona said

"I am relaxed but I wish Caleb didn't have to make a presentation at work today." I said

"At least Caleb is in Rosewood. Mike's going to be in LA for god knows how long." Mona said

"I thought it was only for 6 months?" I asked

"A minimum of 6 months but it could be as long as a year or 2 if he wants to take more advanced classes." Mona said

"Just to be clear, do you plan on staying with Caleb and I for that long if it is 2 years?" I asked

"I don't have much other choice since my mom is renting out my house to other people. I could stay with her but I think Madison likes it here with Deylia and Tyler." Mona said 

"If you want to go surprise Mike in LA for a visit that might be nice. If you don't want to take Madison with you then Caleb and I will take care of her." I said

"I can't ask you and Caleb to take care of Madison right now. You two already have your hands full and this new baby is going to make it harder." Mona said

"Caleb and I can handle it. Deylia's in pre school and Tyler goes to day care a few times per week." I said

"Since Mike just left for LA, I think that I'm going to wait a bit before going to see him." Mona said

A few hours later and Caleb was still not home. I was folding laundry when my water broke.

"Mona, it's time for the baby." I said

I called Caleb and he would meet us at the hospital since he worked in Philadelphia and my doctor in Philadelphia. Mona called her mom to watch the kids since my mom would meet us at the hospital. 

Mona was driving and we were only a couple miles from the freeway exit for the hospital. I felt more pain as each second passed.

"Mona, I'm not so sure that I'm going to make it all the way to the hospital." I said

"What do you want me to do?" Mona asked

"Pull over and call 911 unless you know how to deliver a baby." I said

Mona pulled off the freeway at the next exit. We were in Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.  We got lucky because there happened to be a fire station right near the freeway exit so that saved us from having to call 911.

Mona quickly got 2 paramedics to help me out. Thankfully this wasn't my 1st time having a baby so I knew exactly what to do but I would have been scared to do it without help from a professional. 

Not more then 15 minutes later I had given birth to a baby boy.  

"Mona call Caleb now, I forgot to tell him there was an emergency change of plans so now he's probably at the hospital waiting for me." I said

Before Mona called Caleb he showed up at the fire station.

"Caleb, how did you know were to find me?" I asked

"I checked the find my I Phone app to track your phone so I could see if you were at the hospital yet and I noticed you were here." Caleb said

"This is our son that you missed the birth of." I said

"Han, don't be mad at me for something I can't control. I was waiting at the hospital for a good 30 minutes and worried because you hadn't shown up yet." Caleb said

"If there is a next time I want you there with me every step of the way including labor and delivery." I said

"I promise Han, and I'm really sorry about today. I guess that I could have lied to my boss and  said that someone died so I had a funeral to be at. I would of had to been able to skip the meeting and postpone the presentation for that." Caleb said

"You should have done that because I really needed you today." I said

"Lets just be thankful that he is a healthy baby." Caleb said

"True and Caleb, we never really decided on a name." I said

"How about William but Will for short?" Caleb asked

"Sound perfect Caleb, I love you." I said

 "I love you more Han." Caleb said
