Unexpected to Least Expected

Chapter 32~The countdown

*a week later~2:43am*

I wake up with my stomach cramping. I sit up in bed and try to find a different position. Kook wakes up, "What's wrong?" His eyes are partially shut.

I wince at the pain, "Ahh, Just cramps."

He sits up, "Maybe you're starting to have contractions. The doctor said you may start getting them soon." He pulls me against his chest and rubs my belly.

I shake my head, "I'm not due for another week... I-I'm okay now." I feel the pain slowly go away. I take big breaths.

He continues to hold me, "Do you think you'll be able to go back to sleep?"

I rub my eyes, "I don't know." He continues to keep me in that position. My eyes slowly shut and I fall back to sleep.

*6:34am*

I feel another wave of pain. It wakes me up again. I start to cry from the pain. Kook rubs my stumach, "That's the second one today. The last one was around 2am. That's 4 hours apart."

I wince, "I-I'm fine. I j-just need to get through them." The pain subsides. I let out a breath and lay back against him, "The doctor said that if I'm able to get through them then I don't need to worry. Plus my water hasn't broken yet so we're still okay."

He sighs, "Yeah but she also said that you can go in whenever."

"And I said I don't want to unless I need to." I take another few breaths and start to fall back to sleep.

*10:12am*

Kook shakes me awake. I slowly open my eyes, "What?"

"You're water broke." He points at the puddle of water under me.

"Fuck. It wasn't supposed to for another week." I sit up against him, "I don't need to go-"

"Unless the contractions are closer together. Remember we agreed on 6 minutes apart, no less."

I sigh, "I remember. I need to call Ray."

"Already did." There's a knock at the door, "I'll be back in a moment." He pulls away from behind me and lays me against the headboard. He walks out of the room.

I hear loud footsteps enter the house and come to the door. Ray bursts into the room, "Why are you laying down we need to go to the hospital."

I shake my head, "Not until the contractions are closer together."

She sighs, "Y/n, your water broke."

"I'm aware of that, I am the one currently sitting in it." Kook walks in and comes to me.

He helps me up, "Let's get you changed."

Ray wines, "I really don't agree with the fact that you're agreeing with her on the closer together method."

Kook sighs, "I don't have a choice. She promised me 6 minuntes apart and we go. For now we're just going to wait it out."

I feel a wave of pain. I wince, "Ow. Ahhh." Kook holds me in place.

"Time?"

"10:23am"

"Okay. The last one was at around 6:30 so it's about 4 hours apart now."

The pain dies down. I take a breath, "I really don't like how you guys are timing me."

"Well if you were in the hospital we wouldn't have to." Ray retaliates.

I sarcastically laugh, "Ha. I'm not going yet." Kook helps me into the bathroom.
