 Merry Christmas...
The nurse and the lovely man with the drugs couldn't come soon enough. She was destroying her mans hand and she was pretty sure he'd need it. They'd checked her over, forcing her to move out of the only position she'd managed to find comfortable. When they offered her an epidural, she jumped at it. She NEEDED the pain relief. She'd rolled over onto herself, curling up over her stomach and demanding Kai's hand.
There was something cold wiped onto her back, and the needle moved into the spine. She was quite glad she couldn't see it from the whispers she heard alone. She was going to have to pee into a bag but it would be worth it if the pain would just go away. She held onto him as she waited for the medication to kick in, suddenly gasping and looking at him. "I forgot to call my mom!!! Kai I need my mom!!"
(( THANK YOU MOO FOR YOUR HELPS! )) |

Kai was no stranger to needles, but even he was surprised by the length of the one they shoved into her back, watching the procedure with pupils that were slightly dilated by the rush of hormones flooding round his system. They were hurting her, shoving that thing in her back, a device that looked almost torturous, and he wanted nothing more than to punch the doctor doing it in the face. That would teach them. Her gasp made him tighten the grip on her hand, pulling his eyes away from the tube in her back tot ake in her face.
A little laugh emerged from his throat when he realised it was just her mom, and kai nodded. ”I’ll call her...” Leaning down, kai kisses her gently before going to just that, calling her house and telling her mother that she was in labour cutting the call short so that he could get back, and clasp her hand with his own once more.

Merry Christmas...
By the time Kai returned, Peytons body was comfortably numb, but she was quite happy to cling to his hand again as he returns. As she clutched him, she looked up to him with a smile. To replace her previous screaming, Peyton simply winced as she was hit with another contraction. She was smiling at him, and quite obviously more positive than she had been before. "Did you get hold of her?" She couldn't help but think about the idea she had in her head a couple of months ago that her mother wouldn't be there to support her on the day she gave birth, how awful that was to her and then it just amused her to think she'd almost completely forgotten about her mother. Maybe it was the upside to having such an amazing fiancee. When she'd had Aaron, she needed her Mom, she clung to her like she was the only thing keeping her alive, but Kai was filling that position perfectly. There was, absolutely, no one else in the world she wanted. |

With a nod of affirmation to her question, Kai resumed to his silence, watching the nurses and the monitor like they might make this entire thing all go a lot faster. Undoubtedly however, his eyes always returned to his fiancé and the hand he held, the rise of her stomach that was, undoubtedly, their child fighting for life, for breath, to see the world she was in such a hurry to enter. It amused him somewhat to think that his daughter might be as impatient as he, that Saoirse would spend the rest of her life this way, rushing headlong into things without note of danger. He had been that way once.
Strangely, the idea was… grounding. That she got this from him. The possibility of the child not being his had always been one that kai knew, he had known as had Peyton that there was a fraction of a chance that the child could be something of a supernatural nature – a shifter, but it was an idea both had disregarded.
As far as kai was concerned – in that moment, and in all moments previous, Saoirse had, and always would, be his kin.

Merry Christmas...
Just like it made Kai feel better to think their child got something from him, Peyton was sure their little one must have. After all, she didn't get it from her. Peyton did dumb things without thinking sometimes but she never did them without thought. There was always a reason or a justification. She was as sure of the way her husband to be felt about this child as she was about how he felt for her. She didn't doubt it. She hadn't doubt it for a very long time. How could she? How could she doubt he loved the child that had spent 25 weeks growing in her tummy? The way he touched her bump, and the way he now watched the monitors tracking their child's progress with a sense of worry on his face... That was love. That was a love for a child not yet born. A love only a father could have.
Peyton was probably more relieved to see the look on Kai's face as he stood there than she was to hear he'd got hold of her mother. For a while everything just seemed to be... Calm. Unfamiliar to Peyton in any walk of life, and past what she expected, especially when you watched those shows where people had babies (yes, when the TV had been free and Kai had been out of the room, she might have sneaked a peek). The people in the room seemed to filter out too as it seemed like it could still be a little while before their baby came to say hello, until for the first time in a long time, it was just Kai and Peyton. "All that panic and now.... It's a waiting game...."
Would typically be their child causing all the fuss... Her parents couldn't be more the opposite... Peyton hated a fuss and Kai was one to walk around with a bullet in his stomach rather than complain about it. Either way, it was rather amusing to Peyton that the child could already have a personality all of her very own, not just that little blob on the sonogram pictures. Her icy green eyes looked up to her fiancee and she blew out a breath. "Starting as she means to go on? Have her mommy and daddy running around after her like headless chickens?" |

Kai found himself looking at the clock from time to time, surprised indeed at just how long this appeared to be taking. With all the mad rush from before, with Peyton’s water breaking and going into labour, bundling into the car and petty much braking every road law on the way here.... and now their daughter seemed to be doing everything he had asked of her earlier – spread eagling in the wound and refusing to come and see the world, or her parents. He nodded in agreement with Peyton’s words. ” A waiting game alright.... i had fully expected to be wetting the baby’s head by now – smuggling you out the back door with a pint of guiness in a wheelchair.”
“A Boone who cause’s a fuss.... a deanus who causes a fuss... both seem unlikely, yet here she is, stirring up the world to make all know she’s coming.... and then like a true madam she makes us all wait for her late arrival. Kai chuckled, sitting down in one off the little chairs next to the bed, just clinging to her hand, brushing his lips across her knuckles.
