I decided to write another chapter. Let me know what you think!
Chapter Six
The next couple of photographs reminded me of a lot of events that happened in such a quick sequence that is was unexpected. There was a picture of Logan and I outside a house and then a bunch of pictures of Jacob.
One afternoon, after Logan and I had gone to Baby and Things to buy baby furniture, we were trying to figure out where the baby’s room would be. At the time I was about 8 months pregnant and I was huge. Our house wasn’t small by any means-2 bedrooms, 2 baths. One room was for us and the other was Logan’s office. We didn’t really know where we were going to put the baby.
Since Logan was very concerned about me and the baby, he always made me take a nap in the afternoon. I was lying on the couch and Logan was doing work on his laptop, sitting in the easy chair. I wasn’t very comfortable and I kept moving around. Since I wasn’t asleep, Logan said to me a couple minutes later, “Hey Mary Anne, look at this!” I sighed and struggled to get up. I went to him and looked at the screen. Logan was looking at houses. The one he had pulled up was a nice looking 4 bedroom home, with 3 baths, den, playroom, living room, dining room, and kitchen. The basement wasn’t finished, though. “Nice. But why are you looking at houses?” “Well, what if we bought a new place before the baby comes? Then we’d have plenty of room if we ever decide to expand our family.” “Can we afford it?” “I think so. If we sell this house for a good price, I’m sure we can.” “Why don’t you call the agent?” “I will.” Logan picked up the phone and called the number listed. He spoke for a few minutes and hung up. “Well?” “The agent says we can go look at the house if we want to.” “Now?” “Yep. Wanna?” “I guess.” I said, sighing. With great effort I got my shoes on and got in the car. Logan drove to the agents’ office and then the agent escorted us the house. We got out of the car and the tour began.
I’ll be honest, the house was beautiful. The outside was a green color with cream trim and black shutters. Inside, the living room was a deep red, the kitchen a nice deep green, and the dining room a rich orange. The bedrooms were spacious and clean. Logan and I were impressed. “We’ll call you soon.” Logan said to the agent as we were leaving. On the way home, Logan and I talked about the house. We both agreed that it was perfect, but our offer would be conditional on the sale of our house.
God must’ve been blessing our plans because 2 days after we put our house on the market, it sold. Just like that. And so it was settled. We were going to move. Dawn, Kristy, Dad, Sharon, and Logan’s family all came to help us move. I really don’t know how we did it, but in 3 days we were totally unpacked and settled in our new home. Logan had been very concerned about me, so I wasn’t allowed to do anything. The first thing out of the moving van was an easy chair and I was told to stay sitting the entire time. So I did. But our house was gorgeous. Our furniture matched the colors beautifully and Dawn helped me decorate the baby’s room.
Logan and I had decided not to know the sex of the baby, so our nursery was a soft green color. It had old-fashioned Winnie the Pooh fabric with a dark chestnut finish on the furniture. I was in love with it.
One afternoon, I was feeling really restless. Sammie, as Logan and I called our baby until he or she was born, was moving endlessly, kicking and squirming. I made supper and then went to lay down, even though I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep. I just laid there until Logan came home. “Hello?” I heard him call as the front door closed. “I’m in the bedroom.” I called back. Logan appeared and bent down and kissed my forehead. “Hi honey. How’re you feeling?” “Restless. Little Sammie here can’t decide on a position.” Logan rubbed my belly and I felt Sammie kick upon the impact of Logan’s hand. Logan and I both laughed. “Supper’s ready.” I said, sitting up. “Great. I’m starving.” Logan helped me up and we went to the kitchen. After supper, we sat down with one of my favorite movies-A Walk to Remember-and I managed to fall asleep during it. When I woke up, I was still in the lazy boy and a blanket had been tucked around me. I turned on the lamp and looked at my watch. 2:25. “Wow, I can’t believe I actually fell asleep.” I thought to myself. I started to get up but a sharp pain kept me where I was. “The baby.” I thought. “Need to get Logan. Need to go to the hospital.” I waited out the pain and decided to just sit for a few minutes, in case the pain was just an upset stomach or something. After 10 minutes, I decided it was nothing and went to get back up. Of course, as soon as I went to get up, another pain came. I sat breathing through this one too and then when it had passed, I got up and walked to our bedroom. Logan was sleeping, of course. I shook him awake. “Logan…Logan. Wake up.” Now Logan’s not a very pleasant person if he gets woken up. “Hmm?” he grunted. “Logan, the baby.” That woke him up a little. “What about the baby?” “It’s coming!”
Now Logan was totally awake. He sprung out of bed and threw on a pair of jeans. I sat on the bed while another pain passed and then Logan and I headed out to the car.
After an hour and half of getting settled and check in, Logan and I were finally in the hospital. “You need to call Dad, and Dawn, and your parents, and…” I trailed off as another pain came. They were coming more regularly now and they lasted longer. Logan had got the point of my message so he pulled out his phone and started calling people.
Soon there was a crowd in the waiting room. Since this was our first baby, Logan and I had decided not to have anyone else in the delivery room. So after 16 hours of labor, the doctor finally said that it was time. At 5:47 pm, Jacob Richard was born. Tears were rolling down my face as the doctor placed Jacob on my chest. I held him close and kissed him. Logan leaned down and kissed Jacob and then he kissed me. Then we both looked at Jacob again. The doctor then took Jacob and went to weigh and measure him. Then she wrapped him up and handed him to Logan. “I’m going to go show him to everyone, okay?” Logan asked. I nodded with tears still rolling down my cheeks. A few minutes later Dawn and my dad came rushing in. “Congratulations Mary Anne!” Dawn cried, giving me a hug. “Congratulations, sweetheart. He’s beautiful.” Dad said. “Thanks. Do you like his name?” “Yes. I’m deeply honored.” Dad said. Soon, everyone was in the room. They stayed until the nurse kicked them out. Right before Logan left, he had the nurse take a picture of the three of us. Our first family portrait with Jacob in it.
I smiled as I looked down at the memory and the photo.

What a great fic BSCLover, I, too hope you continue it. I may not have always liked MA/Logan together in the Series, but admit, to being disappointed when they broke up "for good." I had wished they'd stay together forever.
