Six years old Stefan laid outstretched on his mother's tender legs. They were in the hospital lobby, on a long uncomfortable chair. He couldn't get his little mind to fall asleep. Different emotions darting through his mind as he waited with the rest of the Fernández family, while they await the birth of the newest member of their family. He blinked his little eyes towards his Aunt Gina who was sitting opposite them, her head rested loosely on her husband's shoulder while long curly hair ran down her delicate breast to rest on where her hand ran smoothly on her round belly. His Aunt Gina has been the last child of his Grandparents and the only girl his father and uncle Jared had. Stefan's eyes lingered on her until she caught him staring and gave him a sweet smile, Stefan smiled back while blinking his eyes away from her to have them fixed on his Grandparents who were two seats away from him, both of them sound asleep, seeking comfort in each other's warmth. Stefan smiled at them, been the first Grandchild has its benefits, they loved him to no end. Stefan's eyes searched for his father until he saw him pacing the theaters' door. His Father's expressions filled with worry for his younger brother whose wife was having a child.

Stefan frowned, knowing his father was sad and so he wished to comfort him. He tapped his mother's side seeking the woman's attention. Vivian blinked sleepy eyes open to stare down at her son.  

"Pequeño," She smiled and brushed her fingers in Stefan's hair. "What is it, Sweetie?" She was surprised to find him still awake. She caught sight of the clock hanging on the wall, it read 10:45 pm.

"Can I go over to papá?" Stefan whined.

"No. You should sleep, baby." Vivian looked at her husband who was still pacing. She remembered it was Jared who paced that same door six years ago when she had Stefan. A weak smile crossed her thin lips. "Papá is waiting for your uncle and Auntie to bring out your new cousin." Stefan smiled.

"He is going to be a boy, right Mamá?"

"Yes Pequeño, he will be a boy." Stefan nodded, his eyes finally heavy.

"Duerme bebé," Vivian stroke his curly hair and watch his eyes fall shut. 'Sleep baby' She soothed and Stefan fell into Dreamlands. He couldn't wait to have a baby brother. Stefan had always wanted to be a big brother. He fell asleep with a smile so wide his lips could have split in two, light snoring could be heard as the young boy slept.
