73. Tom Hiddleston | Unexpected

By : youlightmeupfinn | Tumblr  

warnings: mature language, pregnancy/birth if that's a trigger

summary: You suddenly go into labor with yours and Tom's second child. He keeps pressing that you need to call the midwife, but you're adamant it's not time... until Tom has to deliver the baby.

-----

"I swear if this kid stays inside of me for one more week." You groaned, waddling up to Savanna who was pushing Sophia in the stroller, who had already surpassed you. The two were heading into the store. "Savanna!" You screamed. "Wait up! I can't walk that fast!"

Suddenly, her head dipped back out, smiling sheepishly. "Sorry, I forgot."

Your head snapped up. "Forgot?! You can see me from ten miles away! I swear I'm bigger with Gabe than I was with Sophia." You sighed, finally making it to her, but you were out of breath. Savanna watched as you finally walked inside the store, your hand resting against the small of your back.

"Yeah, I think you are." She agreed with you. Sophia pointed at your stomach from her stroller, giggling.

"Baby," She smiled up at you. You brushed back her blonde hair and nodded, offering your own grin to her.

"Are you excited to meet Gabe?" You asked. Sophia nodded her head, turning her attention back down to the Loki tsum tsum in her hand.

You and Savanna decided to take a drive downtown and have you walk around. "When's your due date?" She asked. You thought for a moment.

"Next week. I didn't make it full term with Soph. I had her at thirty-eight weeks, so if I actually make it to forty with Gabe, I'll be shocked." You sighed deeply.

"Do you feel any signs of labor?" She questioned, picking up a shirt. "Oh my God, it's so cute." She held it against her. You craved to have your body be the size of hers again. You were able to bounce back from Sophia's birth rather quickly, shedding the weight by pushing yourself into the gym consistently, even if Tom was dragging you by your feet out of the bed in the mornings.

"You wanted this, darling. I'm just your coach." He told you each morning, earning a groan from you.

"My back's throbbing, but that's always happening. Braxton Hicks are definitely happening, every single day." You expressed, looking at the flowery blouse. "Ugh, my boobs can't even fit that!" You laughed, Sophia, looking up at you.

"Boobs?" She repeated, to which Savanna covered her mouth, making you chuckle.

You straightened yourself up and winced, feeling that dull ache form itself again in your lower back. Savanna saw your face contort as the pain moved across into the front part of your belly. You felt your stomach turn hard and you hissed, turning yourself around to walk.

"Are you sure they're not contractions?" She asked. You shook your head.

"No... I don't think so?" You added with a quiet laugh. "I haven't given birth in two years, so I sort of forgot... but when they get here? I'll know. Just give me a minute." You held your hand up, inhaling and exhaling deeply. Bracing yourself against the rack of clothes, you sway your hips side to side. Savanna watched you intently, Sophia remaining quiet. Finally, you smiled and breathed a sigh of relief.

"See? I'm a pro." You said cockily, Savanna tossing her head back.

"Alright, killer. Watch it with your cockiness." She chuckled, sending you a wink.

The two of you drifted around the store, taking turns pushing Sophia. Within twenty minutes of you being inside, Savanna watched as you stopped in your tracks. "Oh, there it is again," You inhaled sharply. Tucking your tongue into the inside of your cheek, you made no audible sound except for your soft breaths pushing outwards.
