It had been 24 hours since your water broke, and you refused to be bed bound trying to carry on like normal.

"(Y/N) should you really be walking around?" Vaggie questioned. You shot her glare, pacing back and forwards in the lobby, your hands resting on your lower back.

Alastor sat at the bar watching on as he let out a sigh. "Doesn't wanna lay down, I take it?" Husk commented. "Quite the stubborn one she is." Alastor replied.

"Fuck." You suddenly screamed having another contraction. Alastor immediately teleporting in front of you, you gripped at his coat with your hands as you lowered your head moaning out in pain.

Vaggie winced at that. "Oh god, I'm never having a baby." Vaggie mumbled.

After the contraction subsided, you let out a tired cry. "I'm so hot now." "Darling let's get you into the room, and we can take some layers off, hmm?"

When you agreed, Alastor finally sighed in relief. He guided you to the room where Charlie was.

"Is it time?" She egorly said.

"No, she's getting hot, and I'm not having her walking around naked in the lobby." Alastor said, closing the door.

You immediately took your shirt off, leaving you in your sports bra as you used the bed to support you up. You were trying to catch your breath. "Alastor, can you take my trousers off, I need it all off." You begged feeling another contraction coming. Your breathing became heavy.

Alastor wasted no time pulling your trousers and underwear down as you stepped out of them.

"Oh no." You whimpered as another wave hit. You cried out slowly, rocking back and forwards.

Charlie and Alastor exchange looks. "That was rather close. I'm gonna check how dilated she is." Charlie reassured him.

Once your pain subsided, Charlie crouched down to check your dilation. "Hard to tell, maybe 7cm." Charlie said, pulling her gloved hand out. When she did, some golden blood was coated around her fingers.

Charlie stared at it for a moment, making Alastor panic at her reaction. "Princess, is that normal?" He asked.

"What's going on?" You asked weakly.

"It is Alastor, don't worry," Charlie reassured. "It just means her cervix dilating, preparing to push the baby out."

Alastor let out a sigh of relief as he placed his cane down on the chair, taking his coat off too. He knew this may take a while, so he decided to get more comfy by undoing his bow tie and a couple of top buttons rolling his sleeves up.

You haven't moved from your position as you were breathing in and out, grasping the bed sheet in your hands.

You felt Alastor bare hands fall on to your lower back, slowly rubbing up and down. "Darling, use me as a support." Alastor suggested.

For a moment, you thought about it until you slowly straightened your posture, turning around to face him.

Alastor had his hands out. You placed your hands in his as he slowly pulled them up, wrapping your arms around his neck. Alastor places his hands on your hips, pressing his forehead against yours.

"Let's just sway, hmm? It might help you."

Charlie was sat watching how Alastor comforted you. Since you arrived in hell, Charlie had got to see the good side of Alastor that she loved. She knew Alastor had it in him somewhere, and it only took you falling from heaven to mellow the overlord out.
