Epilogue

**************************GRADUATION DAY***************************

(I know that it's only supposed to be a year for the Epilogue, but it's fiction!)

"Wow! College graduation!" Britney said when she arrived at the ceremony.

"Sometimes I didn't think I'd make it." Justin said.

"Hey you!" Julie said coming up to them.

"You made it!" Brintey said hugging her old roommate.

"What! Miss my best friends graduation. Yeah right! You're dreaming!" Julie said.

"When are you due?" Julie asked.

"I just went to the doctor yesterday and I have only seven more weeks. I can't wait." Britney smiled from ear to ear.

"Justin, excited about being a father?" Julie asked.

"You bet. I'm still nervous thought. I've read so many parenting books but I still feel like I'll get something wrong and our child is going to be rebellious and hate their parents. I don't want that for my children." Justin said smiling too.

"Children. You mean there are two of them in there?" Julie asked.

"No, there's not two. Thank goodness! I don't know what I would do having two times the wait in my stomach as I do right now." Britney said.

"Do you know what it is?" Julie asked.

"No. I feel that I will push harder to see what the sex is." Britney said.

"I'm am so happy for you!" Julie said. Britney held up her hand and revealed a four-karat diamond engagement ring.

"And you're getting married. What more could a girl want!" Julie said.

"Hmm, I think of that everyday!" Britney said.

"Where are you two living now? On campus?" Julie asked.

"When I moved to North Carolina to be with Justin, he got word that if he found someone that lived near campus, he could move out. So we found a reasonably priced apartment near campus that's perfect for our little family." Britney said.

"There you are!" Laura Lynn said walking towards Britney.

"Hey sweetie!" Britney said.

"You are getting so big. How long now?" Laura Lynn asked.

"Doctor said seven more weeks until I deliver. I am so excited." Britney said rubbing her stomach.

"Boy or girl?" Laura Lynn asked.

"We don't want to know until the baby is born. That way I'll push harder to find out if we have a boy or a girl." Britney said.

"Have you talked to Lynne much lately?" Laura Lynn asked.

"No, not really? How is she? I've been so busy with getting the nursery ready, planning the wedding and of course graduation." Britney said. Laura Lynn was confused.

"Who's getting married." She asked.

"I am!" Britney said showing her the engagement ring.

"Britney! That is gorgeous." Laura Lynn said.

"I was wondering if you wanted to be my maid of honor?" Britney asked.

"Really? Of course I will. I am so honored." Laura Lynn said.

"I think we better take our seats. They look like the ceremony is about to start." Justin mentioned.

"I'll see you later." Britney said hugging Laura Lynn. She waved.

"Why didn't you tell her?" Justin asked Britney.

"I want it be a surprise." Britney said.

"When we move back to Michigan, are you going to tell her then or give her directions to the house and have her figure it out for herself." Justin said.

"I'll tell her after the baby is born." Britney said.

"I love you." Justin said as they took their seats.

"Welcome to the two-thousand and four." Said the Dean of students Mr. Grison. Mr. Grison went through most of the students then finally got to Britney.

"Britney Jean Spears." Mr. Grison said and Britney walked across the stage. Well to Britney she waddled, but to everyone else she walked. A few more names were announced, and then it was Justin's turn.

"Justin Randall Timberlake." Mr. Grison said and Justin walked across the stage.

**************************SIX WEEKS LATER*****************************

(All right, I know I'm definitely different now!)

"Justin, it's time!" Britney said sitting up fast at four thirty seven in the morning.

"What?" Said a sleepy Justin who just fell asleep two hours ago from worry over his wife.

"JUSTIN!!! GET UP!!!" Britney yelled.

"What's going on?" Justin asked still asleep.

"The baby! It's coming! My water just broke!" Britney said.

"Oh! Geez!" Justin said turning on the light. He got dressed really fast. Since Britney's last false alarm labor, Justin was setting out a pair of clothes every night so that he could get dressed quick for the real thing.

"Okay, just calm down. Let's just get your stuff and go." Justin said. Justin got the suitcase and a robe that Britney bought especially for the hospital. He was all ready to go. While running to the car, he threw the suitcase and the robe into the backseat and hopped in the front. Justin reached over to feel the baby moving on Britney's stomach and she wasn't there. He left poor Britney at the house.

"SHIT!!" Justin screamed and made a u-turn in the middle of the main highway to get a very mad and angry Britney.

"I am so sorry." Justin said when he burst into the house.

"Justin please promise me you won't forget our child when you're in a hurry." Britney said holding her stomach.

"I don't match!" Britney whined when Justin helped her into the car and saw her feet. Britney hadn't really seen her feet for weeks since her stomach had grown so big.

"Okay. Let's go." Justin said as they zoomed down the street and towards the hospital.

"Justin! SLOW DOWN!" Britney screamed. Justin was running stoplights and passing cars like he was in a race showcase.

"Um, Justin." Britney said pointing at the hospital when Justin zoomed pasted it.

"Oops!" Justin said and then reversed really fast to get before the hospital. He sped up into the emergency area and two doctors assisted Britney in getting her into the hospital.

An hour later, Britney was on a hospital bed ready to deliver.

"Where's my husband?" Britney asked with a high voice.

"I'm right here baby." Justin said getting a stool to sit by Britney.

"Mrs. Timberlake, have you been going to your lamas classes on a regular basis?" The doctor asked.

"Are they that important?" Britney asked.

"Well, if you want to breath right for delivery, then yes they are." The doctor said.

"I want drugs!" Britney said.

"You stated on your form that you wanted natural childbirth." An assistant said reading the form that Britney had signed.

"Give me the epidural asshole!" Britney screamed. The nurse sat Britney straight up and injected a long needle into her back that would sooth her pains.

"Ahh! That's much better!" Britney smiled and relaxed.

"Britney, you are seven meters dilated. I am going to need you to start to push." The doctor said sitting in front of her.

"Okay baby this it. You can do this." Justin said encouraging his wife.

"I'll do my best." Britney said. She gave one big, hard push.

"Okay, the baby is crowing. Keep pushing Britney." The doctor said.

"AAAAHHHHH!" Britney pushed even harder.

"Okay, this should be the last push." The doctor said. Britney then pushed with every ounce of strength she had left to give her. Soon, Justin and Britney heard the sound of their baby crying. To Britney, carrying that baby for nine months was worth it. Brandon Nicholas Timberlake was born to proud parents Justin and Britney Timberlake. He was eight pounds and four ounces.
