Chapter 19

The next day

Katsuki awoke for what must've been the 20th time that night. He put his fist up to his mouth and muffled his groans of pain from the intense contraction he awoke from. Each time he woke up it had been from a contraction. After a minute and a half, the contraction passed. He looked over at the clock that read '3:45 AM'. He turned his head the other way to look at his husband. He was still asleep, facing toward him with his arm slung over his waist. Katsuki sighed and shimmied out of bed, placing a pillow under Eijirou's arm to replace him. Eijirou smiled and pulled it closer to himself, cuddling into it. Katsuki laughed under his breath and shook his head. He waddled over to the closet and grabbed some sweatpants, pulling them on and adjusting Eijirou's sweatshirt that he was wearing over them. Another contraction hit and he realized they were getting closer together. He gripped onto the closet door and panted, his eyes squeezed tight in pain. This one lasted longer than the last. Sweat had pricked on his forehead, pooling between his bump and chest. He felt significantly warmer than before. He pulled off the sweatpants and sweatshirt, instead opting for Eijirou's tank top and some shorts. He grabbed a towel and wiped away the sweat before pulling on the clothes.

He walked out of the room, closing the door very quietly. Waddling down stairs and into the kitchen, he grabbed a piece of paper and a sticky note. He wrote 'I'm in the backyard - Katsuki' on both of them and slowly walked back upstairs with them. He placed the piece of paper next to Eijirou and the sticky note on his forehead. He groaned and made his second trip back down the stairs, now moving to the back of the house. He had to stop in the living room when a painful contraction hit him. He leaned against the wall with a cry of pain, quickly covering his mouth to stop any more noises from coming out. He took a few deep breaths, trying to calm himself down. He sank onto the ground, knees making contact with the ground. He nearly threw up, but quickly swallowed the bile. For a few seconds after the contraction, he stayed seated on the ground. Finally, he stood back up and continued on his quest to the back door.

He got there in a minute or two and pushed it open, breathing in the fresh air and sighing. "Well, I guess it's just us for the next few hours, huh, guys?" he chuckled, looking down at his bump with a smile. He rubbed it gently, a series of kicks following his hand. "Okay, c'mon, let's go lay down with my legs up so you won't move any lower," he said, waddling over to the chairs they had set up on the patio. He grabbed the pillows off of each of them and waddled over to the hammock. He placed the pillows in a pile where his feet would be, grabbing one of the two by his head and adding it to the pile. He laid down and got comfortable.

Another contraction hit. For the first time in eighteen hours, he let himself actually groan out loud from the pain. 'Eighteen hours..' he reminded himself. Once he could actually move, he reached down and grabbed his phone from his pocket, opening his notes app. He'd been tracking what was happening since it started. It read:
