"Come on, darling! You're doing great! Our little muggle will be here soon, I promise you!" Tom says, rubbing my back as I push through the contractions. 

"Ugh, Tom it's so sore.." I say in a hoarse voice, crying. 

"It's alright, darling, you've got this!" Tom smiles. 

There's a moment where we both glance into each other's eyes, Tom expressing his love and empathy for me. 

Another contraction hits and I throw my head back and cry. "Just make it be over..."

Tom rubs my arm gently. "It's going to be okay..you're doing amazing! It will be over soon." 

I can hear his excitement in his voice. As soon as we found out we were having this witch, he was like a kid in Weasley's and Weasley's. Now, I can see in the corner of my eye him biting his lip. I know he so desperately wants a Draco moment to say something like "come on hurry up I want this kid out I can't wait! Hurry up!" but I also know he wants to be that supportive and caring Tom. 

I'm starting to get really tired now, and I'm all achy. 

Tom can tell. Of course he can. 

He reaches out to stroke my hair and makes me look at him. 

"You're going to be an amazing mum. I love you so much. You're so brave." He smiles. 

I whimper as I feel our baby descend lower and he cups my face in his hands. He kisses my forehead. "You've got this!" He says in a mellow tone, realising how tired, sore and scared I am. 

I start to cry and he holds me close. The nurse tells me I need to push. 

Tom almost hisses at her. "Can't you see we're having a moment, here? Give us a sec. She needs this." I smile weakly, knowing he finally got that Draco moment. 

After a few seconds, I turn to look at him. "Babe..you do know they're here to help, and I do want this thing out of me now, right?" 

"Right, 'course darling." He says. 

The nurse suggests he hop into the bed with me and hold me, letting me sit between his legs for him to be able to rub my shoulders and kiss the crown of my head.

He jumps in and an hour later, I'm still pushing..the baby's almost out now and I'm crying so much. Tom just rubs my shoulders, calming me down. "Owwww" I whine. 

"You're alright darling..you're almost there..big breaths..you're doing amazing!" 

I sigh and push as another contraction comes. "Agghhh.." I say as the pressure builds. 

I push one last time, and the baby slides out. 

My motherly instincts kick in and I open my eyes wide. "Why isnt it breathing?!" Tom didn't know until I said it. 

"What have you done to our baby? Give it here.." Tom says

I roll my eyes, knowing he's having way too many Draco moments. "No..let me hold her.." I say to the midwife. She nods and hands our little witch to me. 

All of a sudden she cries and almost breaks the walls down. 

"Ugh..well at least she's crying.." I laugh. 

"Yeah..sorry for before.." Tom apologises, rubbing the back of his neck. 

"Scarlett?" I ask looking up at Tom. 

"No..you know that's Harry Pottah's  house colour..we can't do that to her!" Tom tells me. 

I laugh. "You agreed to it a week ago.." 

"I know darling..I'm being sarcastic..I know you don't have the energy to understand me right now..I love it, really!" 

"So you're okay with it?"

"Of course, my love. I couldn't be happier..as long as her middle name isn't Harry!" 

I laugh. "I know..no Harry! What do you want her middle name to be then?" 

"How about Felicity?"

"Scarlett Felicity Felton..love it! I love it, babe!" I cry. 

"Hormones?" Tom asks me, raising his eyebrows.

I nod. "Overwhelming amount of emotions!" 

We both chuckle.
