"Ok so there is a little something in your IV to kick things off." "But I'm not due for another two weeks..." Holly said nervously. "Baby will be fine, and besides your little Pippa was over a whole month early and she was fine wasn't she?" The midwife Susan said with a calming smile. "You've got nothing to worry about Mrs Depp. You know I've delivered thousands of babies including two of yours, we will be fine." She added reassuringly patting Holly's leg through the blankets. "Thank you." Johnny said sincerely.

"In just a few hours, we'll have another one to add to the tribe." Johnny said after they had been left alone. He sat down gently on the edge of the bed taking his wife's twitching hands in his own to reassure her. "You're the most beautiful sublime mother to my babies, big and small that I could ever ask for. You're an amazing role model to Lily. A wonderful protector of Jack and my god, the way Lottie and Pippa dote on you..." this made his wife tear up as she bit her lower lip. "It's easy with you by my side." She whispered. "Ha. You make me look good." Johnny said sheepishly. "No no Mr Depp, you do that all by yourself." Holly said leaning into kiss him.

"Jesus fucking Christ...." Holly said loudly doubled over in pain as she scrunched the bedsheets she had kicked off into her fist. "This hurts sooo much." She whined quietly. "It's ok it's over..." Johnny said looking at the monitor and noticing the contraction coming to an end. "Don't you even think about getting into my bed again Depp." Holly smirked knowing she had threatened the same in the previous two labours. "Now luv... is that anyway to speak to me, your husband hey? I love you and you love me, and this is why we end up in these situations savvy?" He said making her laugh using his Captain Jack voice.

"Oh my god... we should have just let Jack get a dog." She said an hour later fighting another fierce contraction. "Yeah well now we know... besides think of the fun we had making this one." Johnny smirked with a wink making Holly's cheeks flush. Here she was giving birth with every medical expert needed looking at her nether regions and he still had the ability to make her blush. "Johnny.. do you want me to kick you out??!" She said closing her eyes. "No darling.. it's ok I'm sorry I know it's hard." "Mr Depp maybe you'd consider going to get Holly some ice?" Johnny nodded and kissed his wife's head before heading out into the hallway.

"Sir??!" Travis asked as the two men rushed to greet their boss. "I need ice." "Ice???" Sean questioned. "Don't ask.." the trio made their way up the hallway to an ice machine. "How's she doing?" Sean asked as Johnny filled the cup. "Not good. She's threatened me at least three times and questioned the legitimacy of my parenthood a number of times." Travis smirked, "Yeah we heard..." "any news from home?" "I called Jack a while ago. All was well, he was heading to bed himself." "Ah good." Johnny said checking his watch and it reading the early hours. "Look you go rest and I'll get these to Hols... if you hear me scream it's because she's finally got her way and is removing my manhood." The lads smirked before heading back to the waiting area.

Johnny returned to the delivery room and saw Holly in floods of tears. "What's up?? What happened?" He rushed to her side brushing the loose hair out her face. "I thought you had gone." She said with tears rushing down her face. "I did go." He said confused and more tears came. "I thought you had left me... to do it by myself." "Oh nonsense..." he said pulling her close with one arm and kissing her head. "As if you'd get rid of me that easily. We are in this together remember?" He said softly looking at the midwife. "The IV has added hormones to hurry Labour on, it maybe affecting her." Susan said calmly and Johnny nodded. "I'm not hormonal. I'm just pushing a fucking water melon out of me!!!!" Holly said tiredly. "Well actually, you are two weeks early, Lottie who was late, was our large water melon, Pip was more of a speedy pineapple, I'd say this one is our cantaloupe melon." Holly pulled back from her husband with raised eyebrows. "Anyway..." he said nervously swallowing. "As you were...." He gestured with a smile.
