Max's Pov

Despite what everybody's told me about pregnancy Ross wasn't screaming in complete agony, just a few pained grunts escaped his lips. Ross was handling this very well considering he was at least an hour into labor, we were forced to drive to a hospital farther away than normal taking about thirty minutes away. I felt my phone buzz I was so concentrated on swerving around a truck that I didn't notice until Ross pulled it out and answered it for me.

"Hello?" He asked absently scratching his side, a true man right there. Even in pregnancy he sounds completely normal almost bored, just like my Ross. "Hmmm, yeah we're going there- meet you in ten?" He glanced at me "Um we'll be there in two if I tell Max I'm dying on the inside. Ye, see you in two" he hit the end button and instantly his voice sounded a lot more pained as if he's been holding back I barley heard 'step on it' before I hit seventy mph on the highway.

"Who was that?" I asked not willing to peal my eyes off the road in fear of this rusty excuse for a car in front of us, he was panting now.

"Alesa, she was there for a birthday party. Decided to wait for us to show up" He said groaning his hand absently touching his stomach.

"How you holding up?" I asked honking at a jackass who just cut us off.

"Hmm, you try being in labor and tell me how it is" he said wiping his forehead a thin sheen of sweat covered his face he looked in the side view mirror and rubbed his face. He opened the window and flipped off the people behind us, they honked back.

"Ross I know you're in pain but you shouldn't flip off random peop-"

"That's why I'm not" he said pointing to my right I saw Adam, Jin, Barney, TimTim, Red, and Cory in the black convertible waving like idiots at us. Then I noticed TimTim was holding up a pink and blue siren that was buzzing loudly like an ambulance, and Cory was holding up a sign that said 'Clear way for Mother in labor!' Adam honked one more time before getting in front of us. To my surprise people actually were moving so we could get passed faster.

"Remind me to kill them when I'm not in labor" Ross said gripping the armrest tightly, as much pain as he was probably in he said it fondly. Like a proud mother who just watched her kids beat up the school bully.

"Dully noted" I said turning sharply into the hospital parking lot, I saw Jin turning off the siren and put in the glove box, Cory folded up the sign and shoved it under the seat. I slid into a parallel park perfectly as Adam and Red gaped in amazement at my superb parking skills. Ross didn't even seem shaken when he walked out of the car like it was completely normal for him.

"Remind me to kill you all later, especially you Jin" He said pointing accusingly at each one of them, they all tried to look guilty but they couldn't wipe the smiles of their faces.

"Okay Ross your pregnant and in labor let's get the triplets out of you, then we can discuss their punishments" Ross nodded and jumped into my open arms he smiled and grimaced at the same time.

"I'm not sure if that's a foot or another contraction" he said absently squeezing my neck harder then he should have, note to self: reconsider putting him boxing.

Adam Pov

I can't believe we actually did that.

It seemed a lot more ridiculous on paper then it did when we actually did that, and the fact that people actually moved. I think that restored my faith in humanity just a bit, if that didn't I don't know what will. Actually I know, puppies, lots of puppies' people with puppies. But this was a close second, and Ross looked like he was handling it surprisingly well. Well better than we expected him to at least, then again we didn't know he could hand our asses to us in a one on the rest.

"Yous guys thinks he'll bes alright? He looks likes he was in pains" Barney asked he was one of the two people pacing in the waiting room the other person was Jin.

"The one day I come back to face my demons, the one person that could help is in labor!" He mumbled to himself, I pretended not to hear it. But Barney was right so many things could go wrong with this, it could be too much for his system overwhelming him. Or one could choke on the umbilical cord. Or even worse Ross could start throwing doctors in pain, as if answering my question a jumble of unknown words were screamed out from Ross' room. It almost sounded like Barney was screaming if his voice was deeper, and sounded like Ross. Barney stopped pacing and his face turned pink at whatever he said Cory facepalmed and looked at Barney.

"Okay how come Ross knows every curse word in every language you guys know?" I asked jealous I can't even remember one. Jin and Barney's faces flushed crimson red obviously this was an embarrassing story, and now I really want to know it.

"Well a few times when Ross chased us down we would accidently start rambling in our native tongue, so he would let us. But he wanted to know what we would be rambling about so he asked me to teach him Korean and Barney to teach him Turkish. I swear that man is a more efficient in learning the language than an actual Korean." Jin said patting Barney's shoulders as the others had a mix of sympathy and amazement on their faces.

Personally I was one of those people with conflicting emotions, first of all nobody has ever made it through Ross without breaking down in tears, personal experience there. And now the man knows four languages, fluently none the less!

But my jealously cut off there as another scream of assorted languages was heard from Ross' room.

Oh right.

He was in labor wasn't he?

Glad I'm not him.
