Chapter 623 - Mother instincts
After seeing baby for few minutes to their heart content everyone went inside Jean"s room to look her.
"My little girl looks so weak and tired" Julian"s face twisted with pain.
"We should take care of her properly. This is very difficult time for Valdez women"s but thank G.o.d that nothing bad happened" Grandfather Valdez said.
"She will be fine after a week bedrest. When Sophia gave birth, she is permitted for a month bedrest and moreover she lost a baby too" Maria said and Julian nodded his head sadly.
If that wouldn"t have happened he would have got another cute daughter.
Scott sighed and looked at Madam Valdez who smiled sadly.
"OK… let her rest for a while. She should have a good sleep first" Mia said and everyone nodded their heads before exiting the room.
"I will stay here with Jean" Scott said.
As the bed is of king size which also have a separate section for a baby, Scott placed the baby in it and he sat beside Jean.
The baby should be taken for the check up but they decided to do that after Jean see her son.
....
At evening…
Scott is dozed off beside Jean. Because of the exhaustion and the tension he have undergone through he is in very deep sleep.
Rubbing her eyes and blinking it twice or thrice to get adjusted to the dim lighting, Jean looked at her husband who is sleeping soundly beside her.
He is sitting on the bed with his head leaned to the headboard. One of his hand is holding her hand as if he is afraid that something will happen to her.
Jean couldn"t help but feel extremely sad as she looked at him. He is so tired and worn out while his eyebrows are furrowed clearly showing that he is not having a peaceful sleep.
After few seconds of silence it is only when Jean remembered that she just gave birth. It was like a horrible dream for her….she never thought giving birth would be this difficult. Including this, the complications she faced made this almost like a nightmare.
Moreover, as soon as the baby came out a little, Jean fainted because of terrible exhaustion.
So she don"t even remember what happened after that. She couldn"t even bear that pain till the baby came out totally.
Is it a boy or girl?
Did she have twins?
Totally excited Jean looked around and she indeed found the baby bed that is attached to the bed.
Though she knew that she should move recklessly or do something that might trigger the pain again…she couldn"t help but feel extremely curious.
Her grandmother and Mia never revealed anything to her. So, she basically doesn"t even know the gender of her baby.
But as soon as she moved a little, the sudden pain a.s.saulted her she winced. Scott who is previously sleeping jerked awake and looked around before his eyes fixated on his wife who has her eyes closed. The tears are already rolling down her face…
"Jean…..you fine?" Scott asked. His concerned voice triggered her tears even more.
Jean nodded her head and tightly held Scott"s hand. "I just tried to move but I couldn"t" Jean said in her hoa.r.s.e voice.
Scott sighed, obvious of why she tried to move…his wife is always stubborn. He didn"t speak anything but helped her to drink some water.
"Our baby…..is he fine?" Jean asked in middle of sipping her water.
"Yeah he is totally fine. But how come you know that it is he not she" Scott asked.
So, no twins but single.
No problem. Though she hoped to have a girl and a boy…..it"s fine. She can try for next time.
"Mother instincts" Jean winked and Scott rolled his eyes. "I am so happy" Jean said.
"Yeah, but that brat really gave you a hard time" Scott said.
"Hmm…..no problem. He is my little cutie pie and who would give me a hard time if it isnt for him" Jean chuckled.
Scott"s face instantly darkened with jealousy and he pouted. "Mrs. Summers...you have your Mr. Summers to give you a hard time…very hard time actually…..just recuperate soon. " his deep voice made Jean chuckle.
Emperor of Jealousy is eating vinegar all over again…..
"We will talk about it. See what plight I am in all because of your exited little brother…" Jean looked at Scott and feigned her sorrow.
"But we got such a cute son all because of my excited little brother" Scott pouted and puppy eyed at his wife
Jean rolled her eyes but she remember something and she asked him excitedly "Can I see him now?" J
Scott snickered and nodded his head NO.
"Please" Jean asked.
Scott still nodded his head NO.
"If you give me a kiss and agree that you love me more than him, then I will" Scott told.
Jean is again flabbergasted by what she heard. Seriously!!
It"s not even been a day she gave birth and his insecurities started surfacing again.
"You are always my priority Scott." Jean softly said and gestured him to come closer.
She took his face in between her palms and kissed his forehead.
"Here" Scott pointed his lips and pouted cutely. Jean giggled and is about to kiss his lips but…
The baby started crying.
The time is so exact that it almost looked like the baby did this to ruin the lovey dovey moment between his parents.
Jean burst out laughing at Scott and he sighed in frustration.
"He got my genes" saying so Scott carefully took the baby in his arms. Though he seems little clumsy and nervous to carry him without any a.s.sistance, he did his best.
Jean extended her arms and her eyes twinkled as she took her son into her arms.
As soon as she hugged him to her bosom the baby stopped crying and closed his eyes again
"He is sooo…..so cute" Jean cooed.
