Six hours.

You've been in labor for six bloody hours, and you're exhausted. Completely wiped out.

You thought you were ready for this, had mentally prepared yourself for it, but this goes beyond the worst pain you could have ever imagined. And you're so bloody tired.

A cold, wet cloth dabs along your hairline, pressing against your hot cheeks, your neck, your heaving chest. You lift up feverish, dazed eyes to stare into the handsome face of the man who got you into this mess.

"I hate you," you gasp.

And there's that brilliant smile. "I know, love. Don't blame ya a bit."

Even now, he makes your heart beat funny. Gorgeous bastard.

Another contraction begins and your fingers clench around his. You can feel bones grinding in his hand, but he doesn't even flinch, just hangs on, encouraging to breathe with him. Eyes locked with his, you puff out each breath with him, tears tracking from the corners of your eyes.

When the contraction finally ends, you slump back, too exhausted to bother cursing him again. Forehead pressing against yours, he wipes your tears away and kisses the corner of your gaping mouth.

"You're doin' great, love. Perfect. My strong girl."

Your eyes blink open when you feel a gloved hand probing at you under the sheet. The attending physician, Dr. Klein, pokes her head up and grins.

"Think we're ready to finally start pushing!"

She must be kidding. Your eyes roll up to meet Kyle's, silently pleading for him to tell you she's joking.

"I know you're tired, sweetheart, but you got this. I'll be right here with ya."

You huff out a disdainful breath and roll your eyes the other way. "Fuck off, Kyle."

"That's my lass," he chuckles and kisses your sweaty forehead.

The end of the bed is removed, your feet planted into stirrups and Dr. Klein positions herself between your legs. "As soon as your next contraction starts, I want you to push."

You want to laugh at her, the idea of pushing preposterous. You can barely lift up your bloody head, let alone push out a baby. Then the next contraction hits and all rational thought is ripped away.

"Push, love. Push!" Kyle urges you, and you do. Your upper body bows forward, teeth clenching as your baby bug works his way through the birth canal, splitting you apart from the inside out. Pain threshold breached, you scream.

Then you do it all again. And again. And again.

It feels like as soon as one contraction ends, another begins, the pain unceasing, never-ending. You just want it to stop, to have that ungodly pressure building below to give way. It feels like you're being ripped apart and it hurts. It hurts so much, you beg for someone, anyone to end this pain.

Kyle stays with you through it all, holding onto your hand with numb fingers, his other arm clamped around your shoulders. He mutters encouragement, praise and apologies, wrecked to the point of tears, his kisses wet with both his and yours.

"He's crowned!" Dr. Klein announces. "One more good push, lass. Just one more and you're done."

"Just one more, pet," Kyle sniffles at your ear, trembling lips pressing against it. "Our boy's almost here."

So, you push. You push and you scream, scream until your voice breaks, and suddenly that excruciating pressure releases, like a cork popping out of a champagne bottle.

"He's out! He's out!" Kyle proclaims, openly crying as he clutches you to his chest. "You did it, sweetheart! You did it!"

And just like that, your baby bug is there, laid on your chest. He's still covered in muck, skin gray looking, his tiny head misshapen from the birth, little face scrunched up like he's furious with the world. And he's the most beautiful thing you've ever seen.

"He look like you," you tell Kyle, laughing and crying at the same time, holding his tiny body against your panting chest.

Kyle cuts the cord then the nurses take him away to clean him up. It feels surreal, seeing the baby you've carried inside you for months, realizing you've brought a new life—a new person—into this world. Everything has just been shifted from the abstract to the real. You're a mum now. You have a son.

The nurse returns with your baby bug, handing him over with a beaming smile. Kyle huddles closer to you, his hand wrapping around yours as you hold your son together for the first time.

Swaddled in a blanket with a precious little beanie on his head, you stare down at your beautiful boy in awe. You still can't quite believe he's here.

"He's perfect," Kyle whispers, swiping his thumb under his eyes, then huffs out a laugh. "Nurse said he's a big lad, nine pounds eight ounces, twenty-two inches long."

You blink up at him, shocked. "That's huge!" you breathe, then look down at your son. "No wonder it hurt so much. I gave birth to a bloomin' toddler!"

Kyle hugs you both tighter, laughing with you, then presses his lips to your temple and sighs, "God, I love you, pet."

You're still laughing when his words finally register.

Wait... What?!
