Kai's POV
when I wake up Paedyn is walking laps around our entire room. she is wearing a pair of my black sweatpants and one of my shirts. she only wears my clothes now because all of her clothes don't fit anymore with how big her stomach is. "Darling, why are you walking in circles?" I ask as I sit up in bed yawning.
"because I am 40 weeks pregnant and I am ready to get this baby out of me" she says continuing to walk around the room. "Octavia said that walking could help get me into labor and I am done being pregnant"
I get up and stand in front of her stopping her from walking. she tries to move around me but I put my hands on her hips. "how long have you been walking today?" I ask softly
"since I woke up" I am about to tell her something but she cuts me off, "please don't say that I need to sit down and rest because I want to do everything I can to get this baby out of me"
she starts crying. "hey hey why are you crying? what's wrong?" I pull her into a hug and kiss the top of her head trying to stop her from crying.
"its just you are going to try and stop me from walking but I don't want to. I want to get this baby out of me because my back hurts and my feet hurt and I cant eat anything without feeling sick and all I want to do is sleep without feeling a human kick me all night and I'm so fucking emotional all the time" she cry's into my chest.
"Paedyn if walking around in circles is what makes you feel better then do it, just don't over work yourself" I whisper with my lips on her forehead. I hate it when she cries.
"are you mad at me?" she asks while still crying
"I could never be mad at you Pae" I kiss her head a few times before I pick her up bridal style and carry her over to the couch sitting down with her in my lap.
"what are you doing?" she sniffles
"just holding my wife because I cant stand to see her cry" I whisper wrapping my arms around her tightly. she wraps her arms around me and buries her face in my neck. my fingers slowly move up and down her back trying to calm her. We sat like that for a while and honestly I could sit like this forever. I love her so much I would sit on this couch and hold her for the rest of my life if I could.
when she is done crying she pulls her head out of my neck and looks up at me. I move my hand to lightly brush some of the tears from under her eyes and her cheeks with my thumb. "thank you" she says barley above a whisper.
"you don't have to thank me, it's my job to help you" I say before catching her lips in a long soft kiss.
---------------------------
the last few days Paedyn has been having little contractions here and there. they only happen about twice a day and a few times in the night, and they only last a few minutes. Octavia and Owen both said that it is normal and that it just means the baby will be here soon, probably in a few days.
Pae is taking a bath and I am brushing my teeth in the sink. I look through the mirror and I see her closing her eyes and gripping the side of the bathtub behind me. when I wipe off my face and turn around she is taking a deep breath and I know it's happening again. I walk over and crouch down next to the tub and take her hand in mine. she grips my hand tightly and I rub her back with my other hand.
"Just breathe Pae I'm here" I say kissing her hand that is gripping mine. she continues taking deep breaths and holding my hand until the contraction ends and she relaxes again. "you okay?" I ask quietly
she nods, "how am I going to do the real thing when I am struggling with these contractions" she rests her head on the back of the tub.
"you are going to do it because you are strong and I believe in you more than I believe in anyone. I know you will be able to do it."
"Kai it is going to hurt so bad, I can't do this" a small tear comes out of her eye.
"hey look at me" Paedyn turns her head and looks at me. I look into her beautiful blue eyes. "you are strong. you have been stabbed like 2 times, you've beat up, you almost got killed by my stupid father, been chased through the scorches, you almost drowned.... multiple times, you kicked a bunch of grown men's asses, survived all the trials, and lived in the slums as a child. there is nothing you cant do. I will be there with you, to hold your hand, to listen to you tell me how I am never getting you pregnant again because I know you will do that and I will be there to help you in any way I can." I bring her hand to my lips again, "In sickness and in health, I love you and you can do this"
she smiles with a few tears still in her eyes and brings my face down to kiss her. "I love you too" she whispers when we pull apart
