Chapter 4
Sydney walked up to the baby's room. The paint was dry and it looked wonderful. Sydney threw on some old clothes and started to move the furniture where it should be. She filled the wardrobe and closet with the new clothes and diapers. By the time Sydney was finished it was 7:45 the next morning. Sydney changed into new clothes and called Mo and Cyn and told them everything. Sydney grabbed Claire's stuff and jumped into her car and drove a bakery. She bought a bag of scones and then drove to the hospital. Sydney went up to Claire's room and walked in.
"Ello luv" Sydney said as she sat down in a chair.
"Morning" Claire said yawning.
"How was night number one at the hospital?" Sydney asked.
"Grand" Claire said rolling her eyes.
"Well I smuggled you in some scones" Sydney said smiling.
"Just like George's mum used to make him?" Claire asked laughing.
"Well these scones are from that really good bakery" Sydney said.
Sydney handed her the bag of scones.
"So when is Paul supposed to get here?" Claire asked.
"Him and the other lads are supposed to be here today. I left 'em a note at your house. I know that they will be here as soon as they can" Sydney said.
"Did you call Maureen and Cyn?" Claire asked.
"Yeah Mo and Cyn are supposed to visit sometime today. As soon as the nanny comes" Sydney said.
Soon Mo and Cyn came. Sydney was walking down to get a book for Claire from her car. As the elevator stopped at the bottom floor she was getting off when four men ran into the elevator quickly and pressed the button to the maternity floor.
"'Ello lads" she said with a sigh.
"Sydney?" George said taking off his hat.
"The one and only!" she said giving him a hug.
"Fancy meeting you here" Ringo said laughing.
"Yes, fancy that!" John said.
The elevator stopped and they all got off. Sydney led them to Claire's room.
"Cyn and Mo are here" Sydney said as they opened the door.
The lads and Sydney walked inside.
"Look who's here" Sydney said.
All the girls turned and looked.
"Paul!" Claire cried.
Paul ran over and gave her a kiss.
"How did you guys get here so fast?" Claire asked surprised.
"Jumped on the next plane here" John said yawning.
"I'm so glad you did. I wouldn't of wanted to have the baby without you here" Claire said sadly.
They all sat there talking for a moment, and then Claire let out a scream.
"It time?" Sydney asked worridly.
Claire just nodded. Sydney ran out into the hall and caught up with a doctor. The doctor and Sydney ran back into the room. The doctor sent Sydney back out to the nurses' station and told her to tell the nurses. Sydney and several nurses returned to the room. The doctors and nurses wheeled Claire out. Paul followed.
Several hours later, John, Cyn, Mo, Ringo, Sydney and George were sitting out in the waiting room.All of a sudden Paul walked out of the delievery room. Everyone jumped up and ran over to him.
"Well?" Sydney asked.
"It's a boy...and he's healthy!" Paul said smiling.
"What's his name?" Cyn asked.
"James Paul McCartney" Paul said proudly.
"Ahh how cute!" John said laughing.
"Can we go see?" Sydney asked.
"That's what I came out to tell you! Yeah, go on in," Paul said.
They all went into the deliver room. Claire was lying in the bed holding a baby.
"He's beautiful," Paul said as he walked over to Claire's side.
"So is that him?"John asked.
"No he's a loner baby," Claire said rolling her eyes.
"How did it go?" Mo asked.
"It hurt and was very not fun,"Claire said.
"It went well," The docter said.
Paul ran over and shook the docters hand.
"Thank you so much!" Paul said to the docter shaking his hand enthesasitcally.
"It was actually quiet an easy labor,"the docter said.
"That was NOT easy," Claire said.
"Well, you did an execlent job. Wounderful! Very, Very good! I owe you!" Paul said still shaking the docter's hand.
"Paul, you can stop. It's his job,"John said laughing.
"Oh right," Paul said.
He walked back over to Claire and took her hand.
"Do you wanna hold him?"Claire asked.
"Can I?"Paul asked looking stunned.
"He is half you,"Claire said laughing.
Paul picked him up and Sydney looked at James over Paul's shoulder.
"He has your eyes, Paul,"Sydney said.
Paul beamed
