verdict?”
    “You’re at ten centimeters.  Let me go get the doctor so we can have a baby.”  Andi stood up and ran right into Kevin coming into the delivery room.
    “I’m sorry.”  Kevin pushed past her and sat down next to the bed.  His eyes never left Layla’s face as he whispered how proud he was of her. 
    A ndi couldn’t tear her eyes away from him.  The doctor rushed into the room to deliver the baby and Andi was frozen in her tracks.  Kevin and Ryan held hands across Layla and the love in their eyes was heartwarming.  Layla smiled between the two, tears streaming down her face.  Kevin leaned in to kiss her cheek and rubbed her belly one last time.  Tears fell freely from his eyes and he made no attempt to disguise them or wipe them away.  His love for his two friends was something amazing to see.  In that moment, Andi ‘saw’ Kevin Merck for the first time.
    “Let’s deliver this baby.”  Dr. Folsom patted Layla’s leg.  He waved Andi toward him and she smiled up at Layla and Ryan.  “I have several interns helping me and if it is ok with you..”
    Ryan interrupted.  “ We would love it if Ms. Allen could deliver.  She’s family.”
    Kevin’s eyes went wide, searching the room for Andi.  “What?”
    Ryan leaned over and whispered.  “Watch out, Merck.  Your heart is showing.”
    Andi took a seat on the stool to begin the delivery.  She turned toward the nurse so she could wipe the tears from her eyes.  “Thank you, Ryan.  This is a huge honor.”  She took a deep breath.  “Are you ready, Lay?”
    Her eyes locked with Kevin’s and her heart beat sped. In that one moment, everything was different.  His bright eyes looked right through her, seeing everything she never let anyone see.  He smiled a genuine smile, not the snarky smile that he saved for their fights.  She shivered.
    “When you feel your next contraction, I want you to push.  Kevin, come down and hold her right leg.  Ryan, I want you on the left.  Layla, I need you to take a deep breath and blow it out while you push.  You ready?”
    Layla shook her head and took a deep breath.
    “And push, push, push, push, push, push.  You’re doing great honey.  And relax.  Good.  We are going to do it all again.  Deep breath in and push, push, push, push, push.”
    “Oh my God.”  Ryan’s eyes met Layla’s.  “I can see the head.  Oh my God this is amazing.  I love you so much.”
    Kevin looked down and stumbled on his feet a little.  “Merck, eyes on me.”  Andi’s voice was stern.  “Take a deep breath in through your nose and don’t lock your legs.”  Kevin did what she said.  “Now I want you to focus on Layla’s face.  Let her look at you.  She needs a focal point to stare at.  Let her be that for you as well.” 
    Kevin nodded and looked at Layla.  They stared at each other as the next contraction hit.  “Ok, Layla, big push.  Take a deep breath in and push, Layla, push push push.  You can do this.”
    Tears fell down Ryan’s face as he watched Andi suction the baby’s mouth and nose. “This should be the last push.  I want you to bear down hard.  I know you are exhausted but you can do this.  Give me everything you have, Lay.  Ready?  And push…..”
    Ryan gasped as he watched Andi work quickly, removing his shoulders and wrapping him in a blanket.  The most beautiful sound he had ever heard echoed through the room.  The baby’s cry brought everyone to tears.
    Andi smiled.  “Congratulations you two.  You have a beautiful baby boy.  Dad, would you like to cut the cord?”
    After Ryan cut the cord and Andi placed the baby on Layla’s chest, her eyes met Kevin’s.  “Great job, Deuce.  I was worried that you might hit the floor there for a minute.”  She giggled when he smiled.
    “That was intense.”  Kevin wiped the sweat from his hands.  “You were amazing, Andi. I’m serious.”
    She laughed and stepped in to hug him.  “ You were too.
