Primal

Chapter 16

The 9th month came slowly with anticipation from everyone around him. He couldn't be anywhere alone, not even in his room when he's sleeping. The only place he could actually be at peace was if he and Z were alone talking and usually it was constructing a planet made of islands and mostly water, expanding what they had and constructing a core that Alisa was already beginning to build according to the diagram. 

"Guys, I'm fine, stalking me is not going to make them come any sooner," he said, spotting the girls hiding around the corner, King chuckling. "They're just worried, the last thing they want is you to be alone and in labor," said Z, taking a bit of an apple. He couldn't help but roll his eyes, resting a hand on his stomach. "Oh if I do they will hear me from one side of the castle to the next, apparently it's the most painful process a woman can go through," he said, holding a basket of cupcakes he was suppose to bring to the dining room but instead decided to eat them along the way. "Do you plan on eating the entire basket?" 

"Yes and you can't stop me," he said with a yawn. "How many kids do you plan on actually having?" 

"In total...hmm...at least 5, or maybe 6," 

"You like to have a lot of kids?" 

"Yup," he said feeling them kick again. "Both you, quite moving in there already," he said as they arrived to the dining room. He paused before looking at Z then back around the glass room. It was turned into a room with flowers, and a giant fish-tank in the walls with pillars resting against it. "You didn't," 

"I did, after pulling it out of Mya actually, a small tea room with cribs and a lot of light," said Z, his gaze quickly turning to one long crib with floral edges and tiny pillows he had made set up. He beamed, unsure of what to really say. "It's beautiful-ughoh," he said feeling something wet gush down the side of his legs. Eventually it spilled through the dress he had, Z's eye snapping down. "My water broke...it is like water running down my leg," he said, Mya hurrying in just as he felt the pain. "Oh crap labor hurts," 

"Contractions start, lets go-stop standing there!" snapped Mya, hitting Z in the shoulder. He was plopped into a wheel-chair and brought right to his room where the ceiling was changed to look like summer with light beaming down everywhere. "Crap-Crap-Crap," he said breathing in and out, Mya helping him down in his bed. The contractions he took for granted and it was just horrible, pinning him right in bed. "Why me? Whhhhyyyyyyyy," he moaned, Mya propping his head up. "How long does this go on?" 

"Oh...for newbies...usually around 11 or more hours until you're fully dilated," said Mya as he rolled onto his side. They massaged his back while he rubbed his stomach. "I have not seen a labor in a while and I do not plan on it, I will be some-," 

"Get your butt over here," said Mya, snatching Z by his wrist and pulling him to the other side. "Hold his hands," 

"What-why?" said Z reaching down. He grabbed and squeezed, Z wincing a little. "That's why, helps doesn't it?" said Mya. He nodded, holding onto Z's hand. "No it hurts," said Z, making him laugh and then whimper. "I wonder if we can start some farming, they can't always eat just fish and plantain even though it taste greeeaaatt..." 

"We do have some seeds for islands, the rest are stored beelloow...introducing farming could be nice," said Z wincing a little more. "As long as it's set to be Eco friendly...maybe we can build wharf houses if we begin to grow, like Venice a little...throw in a bit of machinesssss....that can be handmade..maybe home made...ooooowww, can I get my hand back? I fear he might break it," 

"You'll heal," they all snapped. The hours began to pass, the pain mounting until finally that feeling to push came. "Crap...crap..." he said, Mya pulling Z to hold him up as he began to push. The first cry was a relief and the second a joy. He leaned back, his head resting on Z's chest, chin on his head. "Ow," he said. He could feel Z's chest shake and rumble. He reached out, both of them placed into his arms with actual blue hair. "How the hell did they get blue hair?"
