* queen of broken hearts

"I couldn't leave you guys all alone here." He said as he continue to watch, getting all turned on. "I'll door dash your favorites, yeah?" Max smiled and the nurse went in, knocking. "Do we have a name for baby girl?"

"thank you for coming back." maya giggled "also thank you for the sushi." she said "aw, oh no i didn't compile my favorites." the woman said

Max went out and he debated if he should come back to the room. There was no denying the kid was his but he was still in denial. He knew he couldn't leave Maya all alone in a hospital. So even though he's scared shitless, he went back. There it was, Maya and the baby. He watched the baby latch on Maya. "Are you hungry? You want some sushi?"

"Hi, you came back." maya smiled as she watched the baby then looked up at max "oh my god that sounds so good, yes please i would love some." the woman said running her hand over the little girls head full of brown hair.

Max nodded his head. "I'll be back and the baby's in the nursery." He said watching her close her eyes again.

"Thank you, baby." she said softly as she rested a little bit more but then the nurse brought the baby in to meet maya and nurse for the first time. "Oh hi baby, you're so beautiful." the woman said as she watched the baby latch without problem and do her first feeding. "good job, mama." the woman said rubbing maya's arm.

Max didn't know how to answer her. "I'm fine. I just... I need some air, Maya." He chuckled. "But I'll be back." He smiled at the girl and leaned in to kiss her on the lips.

Maya nodded "take your time, i'm pretty boring right now." she said as she kissed him back resting her eyes again.

"Maya will be just fine." the woman said with a smile as she handed the little girl to the other nurse in the room as they took Maya to recovery where she was waking up slowly. "Maxy?" she asked softly

Max was really ready to go but then he heard Maya. "Hey." He greeted her with a straight face. "She's fine and you'll be fine too." He gave the girl with a small smile. "I'll call Gray yeah?"

"are you okay?" maya asked softly "are you gonna go?" the woman asked as she tried to move but her lower body was still numbed up.

Max was just looking at the baby from afar as he listened to the nurse. "No. I think the baby should stay in the nursery." He said, not wanting to get a closer look on the baby. "Is Maya going to be fine?"

"Maya will be just fine." the woman said with a smile as she handed the little girl to the other nurse in the room as they took Maya to recovery where she was waking up slowly. "Maxy?" she asked softly

Max smiled when the nurse said the baby was out. But the smile quickly went away when he was asked if he was the baby. "No." He said, motionless on the spot. His eyes though were on the baby. The nurse was right. She was so beautiful, he can feel his heart getting tugged just by the sight of the baby. And just as suspected, Maya's daughter was brunette with green eyes. "Her brother will be here soon..." He said wanting to bolt out of there.

"Oh I'm sorry, the nose looks the same so I thought maybe you were daddy." the nurse said and nodded "I'll take the baby to nursery and wait for mama to come to unless you wanted to hold her." the older woman said as she held the small bundle in her arms "she's so close to six pounds but not quite, doctor said she's healthy as can be."

Max pulled away from the kiss and looked at her. "You can rest, baby. Get some sleep and when you wake up, your baby will be here." He whispered. He tried to focus on her, scared to see what the doctors are doing.

"Thank you, baby." Maya said softly as she closed her eyes "There she is, baby girl is here and she's beautiful." the nurse said "are you dad?" the nurse asked as she handed the baby to the doctor so she could be cleaned up. "Is mama out?" she asked looking at Maya with a smile "She was in here for hours before her c-section, I think that was the right call, her body is so tiny." the woman said to Max.

"I won't go anywhere." He assured the girl and kissed the back of her hand. "You and the baby are going to be safe, Maya." He assured her more and he knew she was numb but he leaned in and kissed her softly on the lips.

Maya felt the drug they gave her to relax her kick in and she returned the kiss as her eyes started to flutter open and closed. "I'm so lucky you stayed with me." she said, her voice a little tired and soft. she didn't know it but they were already operating, making the incision. Maya could barely keep her eyes open.

Max took her hand and kissed the top of her head. "Everything will be alright, baby. After this, you'll get to see your beautiful daughter." He whispered.

"Stay with me?" Maya asked softly as she held her eyes closed until she couldn't feel anything and they began to take her to the operating room where they would put a curtain up between maya and her bump. "I'm scared all over again."

Max helped her sat down and placed her hand on the edge of the bed. "Hold there for awhile okay and I'll have a talk with your doctor." He said as he went out. Max talked to the doctor and he introduced himself as the boyfriend because he knew if he didn't introduce himself as one, the doctor might not let him decide. He went back to her. "You ready, baby?"

"I'm ready." Maya said as she laid in the bed, the nurses giving her the epidural so she wouldn't feel the c-section and whimpered at the needle in her back clenching her eyes closed.

Max sighed. "Maya please... Let's not do this. " He frowned a little. Max knew there was really a possibility that he was the father but he didn't want to think about it. "But baby, I don't like seeing you in pain like this."

"I know, baby." Maya pouted as she gripped her hand to the bed "I really wanted to deliver her naturally, the pain comes with labor but if you're really concerned, can you talk to the doctor?" she asked as she sat down on the bed

"Well I wouldn't be surprised too since that's your natural hair color." He said, chuckling nervously. "Baby, I think you should just have a c-section."

"Well green eyes then." Maya laughed as she closed her eyes again "oh my god." she hissed as she looked up at Max "I wanted to do this natural." she pouted

Max kissed her cheek. "It was probably another blonde boy. That's your type." He teased the girl. "Are you sure you don't want to lay down, Maya?"

"Oh please, watch her come out with brown hair." Maya joked as she whimpered again closing her eyes "I can't right now, Maxy, it hurts my back too much."

Max laughed. "You should have called her daddy. I'm sure he'll want to see the birth of his child." He whispered to her before rubbing her belly. "Don't give mama such a hard time please, little one."

"If I knew who the daddy was." Maya whispered as she sighed "Fuck this hurts." she said as her hand gripped to Max's shirt a bit

Max took the scrunchie from her and put her hair up or atleast tried to. But it just became a messy bun. "Oh she's being mischievous already. Like mommy." He whispered and kissed her on the cheek as he held her close to him.

"Thank you." Maya said softly as she closed her eyes and gripped her side "Oh she is, really she just wants to be the center of attention, also like mama." she giggled
