That morning Ezra fought the urge to sleep while the others ate and laughed. Eventually they all left to go to work leaving the other two behind. Though Starkiller avoided talking to him all day and left the cave quicker hen everyone else. Ezra was left since his shoulder was acting up still. Arcann was left behind since his uterus was currently occupied by someone. Eventually Ezra lost his will and found himself fast asleep a few months later.
Ezra woke up from a short nap later that afternoon to Arcann sitting at the cave opening looking outside. The storm was raging on outside. Snow flakes seemed to be falling at a thousands miles per second. His dark blue eyes looked terrified and lonely. Meanhiwle his binder which matched his eye colour was currently laying on the floor next to the fire trying to be warmed up before he wore it again. With a sigh Ezre slowly made his way over to the male.
"Hey." Ezra smiled waving at him. Arcann bit his lip as he looked at the only other person in the cave. Ezra smiled at him again as he sat down.
"Hey." He sighed as he looked back out of the cave.
"Where's everyone?" Ezra asked. He was to tired to remember anything.
"Thexan and his boyfriend went to go get wood, M and her brother went to go get food. You were left once again because of your shoulder. As for me it's because I'm the size of a fucking house." Arcann sighed. Ezra giggled a bit.
"Really now? I think your more like the size of a ship." Ezra joked. Arcann laughed a bit as he glanced back at the boy. A smile spread across his face instead of a look of worry.
"I was thinking even bigger then that." Arcann smirked. His eyes were full of such happiness for a bit that Ezra almost forgot what he looked like before hand. Ezra smirked a bit.
"Okay, maybe the size of a space whale." Ezra smirked. Arcann giggled again yet, winced a bit after laughing. He held his stomach as a look of worry spread across his face.
"You okay?" Ezra asked.
"Yeah, kids just been hyper all day. It's gotta learn that it hurts me when it moves so much." Arcann sighed looking back outside. He looked a bit more nervous as his hand on his stomach seemed to tighten. It looked a little uncomfortable. Ezra sat there in silence for a second before reaching his hand out to touch it. Yet, he stopped moving his hand making eye contact with the male. His hand dropped quickly as his face turned a bright shade of red and looked out the cave. With a sigh Arcann grabbed his hand and put it on his large bloated stomach again.
"You can try to calm them down. They won't listen to me." He sighed looking back out the cave entrance. Ezra sat there quietly for a second before tiny movement hitting his hand cause him to grin from ear to ear even though it made its owner wince.
"That's not helping you know." The male stated glancing at him before looking back out the cave. Ezra sighed as he dropped to the stomach's level.
"Hey, I don't know if you can really hear me or not buy, you gotta calm the fuck down kid. 'Cause I don't know if you know this but, your daddy is working hard on trying to help you anyway he can so try to clam down and let him relax. Let him have a minute before you do what ever our plaining to do, Okay?" Ezra asked. Arcann rolled his eyes perparing himself for another movement seconds later. Yet to his surprise nothing happens. He chuckled a bit as he relaxed looking back out at the millions of snowflakes falling before them. Ezra moved his hand with a smile and looked out the cave with him for twenty minutes of silence. Then after twenty minutes, something happened.
The second he felt something Arcann looked down. There was warm liquid running down his legs onto the floor in a large gush. With in seconds he realized his pants were wet. Along with the floor. He sucked in a breath as he looked back out side the cave preying that his brother got here in time since he was the ship's only doctor. He knew it meant two things. Either his bladder was really bad or that kid was ready to see the snow world once and for all.
A few more minutes pasted before Ezra glanced back over at Arcann. He was sweating up a storm while a look of extreme discomfort was on his face. One of his hands was squeezing the hell out of his coat side and the other one was rubbing his stomach. He was also bitting his lips and looked like he was holding back a scream. His grip got tighter as he shifted his legs as he seemed to try to get more comfortable.
"Sto-I mean Arcann, are you okay?" Ezra asked looking at him. Arcann gulped as he face a smile looking his way.
"Y-yeah. I'm fine." He lied. To be honest he was in a lot of pain and was so scared right now. Oh god this was gonna be bad wasn't it. Arcann sucked in a breath as the pain got worse then before while gripping his coat corner tighter. His eyes began to water more which he quickly blinked away as he remembered Ezra was a there. So he kept thinking one thing he knew for sure repeating the same things over and over again in his head.
Arcann was a male. He was a male. Male's don't cry. Girls cry over a bit of pain, not males. That's all this was. A bit of pain. He wasn't gonna cry over any bit of pain. Pain was pain. Pain didn't matter to males. It didn't matter so, he shouldn't cry. He shouldn't cry because he was a male.
Yet, he still kept fighting back tears trying not to panic while avaoid eye contact for another minute. Ezra kept watching his wondering what was wrong with him. He kept think up scenarios of him missing people until he saw the puddled of water under the male's legs. That was when he began to panic. He panicked a bit more as Arcann let a whimper escape his mouth. He began tearing up more as Ezra jumped to his feet.
"Oh god. Don't tell me there's gonna be a kid popping out on this cave floor in a few minutes!" He yelled louder then what he meant to. Arcann but his lip as he looked at him.
"No promises." He mumbled as he bit his lip again as another whimper left his lips. Ezra felt his blood stop as he began pacing back and forth. All while swearing under his breath.
"Oh god, wild you calm down. I'll be fine. Thexan will be here in time and he knows what to do. So calm down. We got time." Arcann stated sucking another breath. Ezra let lose a shaky breaths before helping him up.
"Well, I'm at least warming you two up. That kid isn't gonna be born as cold as a snowflake." Ezra sighed sitting him down by the warmest area in the cave as he threw an blanket M made out of animal fur a few days ago. Arcann sighed as he put the blanket over his legs as Ezra sat the the entrance. Over the next twenty minutes all Ezra heard was few whimpers of pain come out of Arcann's mouth. The boy's heart broke every time a new whimper was heard. He as just about to turn around when a yell was heard from behind him. The male spun around quickly to see Arcann holding his stomach tighter as blood began to show up under him.
"Okay, what ever the hell we're doing now isn't gonna work. That things coming out now and my eyes are gonna need to be bleached later." Ezra stated as he raced over to him. Arcann shook his head.
"No-No. I can wait. I- I can wait." He stated trying to catch his breath. He held back another scream as he moved his legs. Ezra shook his head no as his face paled.
"You do realize there blood coming out off..umm your privates parts right?" Ezra asked. Arcann swore as he looked down and saw the blood under him. He pulled the legs over his blood stained pants more as he slid his clean coat off before blood stained in.
"I-I'll be fun. I just need some dru-" He stoppe stalking as a a scream of pain left his mouth. Tears began to leave his eyes as he held back another scream. Ezra dropped down right next to him as he began to panic.
"Okay. Maybe I can't wait any longer." Arcann stated catching his breath as sweat rolled down his forehead. His eyes began to water more then before as he screamed again. Ezra gave him his hand hoping to help him any way possible. Arcann took it and squeezed it so hard as he screams again that Ezra was pretty sure he broke a bone in his hand in two. He began panting looking at him.
"Oh my god, it feels like I'm shitting a fucking flaming knife." Arcann groaned as he wiggled out of what ever his lower half was wearing. Ezra looked at him weirdly for a second.
"It could be worse. You could be getting stabbed by one of those." Ezra stated trying to lighting the mood. Arcann glared at him as another jolt of pain went through his body.
"FUCK THIS HURTS!" He yelled squeezing Ezra's hand tighter. Ezra screamed along in pain with him as his hand felt like it was breaking again. Thousands of tears  were now falling out of Arcann's blue eyes as his body began sweating more and more. Ezra sighed before he told Arcann he he was doing great. Yet, to be honest though, he didn't know. All he knew was that Arcann was in a lot of pain. Probably the lost amount of pain he had been in for a while.
Arcann continued screaming and crying with only Ezra comforting for ten more minutes. By that time he was full on sobbing over the pain and begging for it to be over soon. As for Ezra, he was preying he was gonna live through this. Soon the cave fell dead silent as a loud cry was heard for a second. Both older humans in the room froze for a second before Arcann closed his legs so no one could see anything for a few minutes.
Ezra got up and raced over to see a crying child with a full head of dark blue hair crying it's head off on the floor. He picked the tiny bloody baby up before getting anything that kept him attached to Arcann to the kid with a sharp rock he saw. The male smiled as he walked over to his parent who was laying their head down on the ground whose covered in sweat.
"Here ya go. I assume he's yours." Ezra smirks handing the little guy to his father. Arcann sat up within second. His arms wrapped around the small child within second before a happy smile spread across his face. The large blue eyes he had began watering as he held the child closer to him.
"Shh. Shhh. I gotta you baby boy. Shh." He said rocking the child back and forth. The baby had stopped crying soon and was now looking up at his father with such curiosity. Arcann held him tightly to his chest as he began full in sobbing hold the tiny creature which was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen before.
"You know he kinda looks like me." Ezra stated looking at the full head of hair. Which was true because he had the same hair colour as Ezra. Yet, not the same eye colour that he shared with his other father. Arcann just nodded his head while he silently sobbed before kissing his son's head. Ezra sighed as he took off his orange star bird coat from under his large fur coat. He handed it to Arcann.
"He's gonna get cold if you don't wrap him up you know." Ezra stated holding out his coat. Arcann shook his head tiredly.
"It's all you have left from the rebellion." Arcann stated whipping a few tears away with his hand. Ezra sighed as he took the tiny child away from him for a second. He wrapped him in the orange coat as the baby began laughing. He handed him back to his only living parent at that moment.
"Hey, I can always wash it. Now just hold him. So what'd you decide to name him?
"Braxton. His name's Braxton Jonny Jr." Arcann smiled holding his son tightly to his chest. Ezra smiled getting up. He put Arcann's coat over them like a blanket.
"That's a pretty good name." Ezra smiled. Arcann nodded as a yawn left his mouth the same time as one tinier more high pitched left his baby's mouth.
"You two get some sleep. I'll watch for the others." Ezra smiled walking over the the cave enter parcel Arcann nodded as his legs dropped. Within seconds both he and Braxton had fallen asleep on the floor snuggled under two warm items next to a fire. The second he saw they were asleep, Ezra barfed on the outside of the cave. That was the most disgusting thing he had been apart of in his life. Then he sat back up on the edge of the cave for another hour before the others came home in a large group while the snow storm slowed down a bit.
"Hey blueberry. Sorry we're late. The storm got so bad we had to make shelter for a bit. What'd we miss?" M asked with a smile as everyone stood outside.
"Oh not. Arcann just had his baby. Not much other than that." Ezra smiled at them. Everyone paled for a second.
"WHAT?" Starkiller asked loudly as he pushed the male out of the way running into the cave. Everyone pushed pasted Ezra into the cave to see the boy hugging a tiny baby boy to his chest with a yawn as he woke up.
"Hey guys. You missed a lot. I may have also broke Ezra's left hand." He chuckled the last part. M let out a high pitched sequeal as she dropped the animal she had killed on the floor to look at the tiny child. Thexan sat down next to him with DJ freaking out over the baby. Starkiller just walked over to Ezra and placed a hand on his shoulder.
"I'm only ever gonna say this once and we never say I said it again. Thank you." Starkiller smiled.
"F-for what?" Ezra asked looking star stuck. He began to get ready for this all.
"For taking care of my friend. Owe you one. Now get your ass back in here for dinner." Starkiller stated walking off. With a smile Ezra walked back in with his friend to see the tiniest creature he had ever seen with it's parent.
