Every step Ezra takes is agonising between that, the contractions, the quickly growing pressure or the fear of my surroundings right now are not helping the current situation at all.
"Won't be long honey we just need to get to Gabes' vehicle which is just off base through the tree line" Ezra says rubbing soothing circles on my back.
"I... I cant.... ahhhh" I cry out halfway across the grounds as my belly tightens the hardest it has yet and for the first time since we set off Ezra stops in his tracks groaning.
"What's up?" The new armed guy asks resing a hand on my mates' shoulder to offer support.
"There is a lot of pressure pressing on my knott right now I think it's deflating," Ezra says through gritted teeth.
"Not far to go. Make it to the trees and we can help you away from prying eyes." He says evaluating the surroundings before turning those scorching irises onto Mica, the smaller man had stopped a few paces behind as though afraid of getting too close.
Ezra sets his jaw and manages in a stumbling fashion to push forward into the tree line falling to his knees once we were under the cover of the canopy.
"Shit" he groans looking down between us as we both feel the pressure gathering just behind his knot.
Mica and Gabrielle were on their knees beside us and I am about to ask what the thinking was when a blinding pain crashes through me and I could not help crying out. As the pressure peaked I felt this strange popping sensation and Ezra's knot came sliding out in a rush of fluid which was a heavenly release from pressure for all of 30 seconds before something in my body decided it was time for action and without any consent or control my entire body seemed to bare down with a low growl.... when it ended I more or less had time for one breath before it started again. I don't know at what point the discussion or action was taken but Ezra was now wearing pants and taking one of my arms while Gabe took the other and they lifted my body to my feet.
"Come on babe just hold on, just make it to the car. I nod trying my best to stop my entire body letting nature take its course. I barely managed a step when I tried to drop to my knees with another one of those strange push-type instincts then two steps before the next one then two more but on the 3rd I can see the car just ahead of me. I keep going until I make it within a few steps of the large off-road vehicle. Mica has thrown the bag in the back seat and is starting the car. I go to take another step and suddenly feel something move within me... the boys on either side seem to know as I'm suddenly lifted into the car my back against the soft bag as though it was a pillow. Ezra climbs in beside me in the open footwell and Mica climbs in at my feet, the second the door closes mica is peeling away from the facility.
"Ahhh!" I cry out as I feel something slide lower as though it will fall out at any moment.
"Hey hey, it's okay," Ezra says to get my attention as Gabe loudly states he can see ahead, Ezra glances and visibly pales but manages to cover it quickly. I want to say something but a huge urge to push takes over.
"Don't push! I need you to pant like your trying to start a fire" Gabe says while demonstrating to Ezra who quickly takes the mantel and I try my best to stop the urge and blow like they are telling me when Mica hits a pothole or something in the road and a searing sensation feels as though it's cutting me in two...
"Whoa steady, we have a head delivered," Gabe says and I reach my hand down instinctively he places my hand against a large ball suspended out of me... it has coarse hair which Ezra informs me is black like mine. I cant enjoy the moment long though as the instinct comes back and I feel a wet pop and instant relief as my tiny little baby comes into the world with an instant screech. I can't help but feel tears as the little baby is placed on my chest wet and wriggling as someone pulls a shirt from somewhere to dry the little pups back.
"We have a little boy," Ezra says big globes of tears pooling in his eyes.
"I can't believe how perfect he is," I say soaking up his little face for a few seconds before I tense again as another surge from inside me pushes its way down.
"Don't celebrate too quickly daddy baby two is on its way.
This one seems much quicker with the head arriving in just 1 push.
Another push and I feel the relief again.
"You have a second boy, congratulations," he says as baby number two is also placed alongside his twin.
"Two boys," Ezra says in awe...
I feel more pressure.
"Okay, one last time," Gabe says.
"What do you mean?" Ezra says looking wide-eyed at Gabe as he collects the oldest of the two boys and swoops him into his arms.
"Your last baby is on its way," he says and now it's my turn for shock.
"We were having twins" I groan at the now-familiar undeniable pressure.
"Well this one has another plan but steady when you push because this one appears to be arriving like superman," Gabe says and I want to ask what he means but the searing pain burning through me is far more intense and my question is answered when my final little baby comes into the world with one hand up at the side of its face as though flying.
"Congratulations mummy and daddy you have two boys and a girl.
