"Gabe," I enter the apartment excitedly. I had gotten home from work, not hunting anymore but a real fucking job. It was 5 'o'clock and I had rushed home.

"Yeah what's up baby?" Gabriel walks over to me quickly, I throw my bag on the ground and kiss him quickly.

"She's in labor," I pant since I had gotten home and ran as quick as possible. 

"What! How long!" Gabriel worried and ran a hand through his hair. 

"About 2 hours," I swallowed, "come on get your stuff we gotta be there for her."

"Yeah go to the car I'll be out in a minute," Gabriel panics and I nod. I run to the car and start it, Gabriel comes out a second later running. His hair bouncing and flying around him and I can't help but smile at how cute he looks, all my love for him seems to surface when I think clearly for a moment. Our baby was about to be born, I remembered when we got married. I remembered our honeymoon, when we first moved in together, I remembered when we first met the woman carrying our baby (her name is Uligy), and I remembered her helping us put the nursery together. I thought about all the memories as we rushed to the hospital as fast as legally possible, Gabriel looked like he was going to burst at the seams. His face was red, his breathing was loud and heavy, his face was bright red and when we parked the car I looked over at him. 

"It's okay babe," I consoled, "relax okay?"  He swallowed and nodded, he breathed loud through his parted lips. We hurried to the front desk, we were taken to the room and  Uligy smiled at us. Gabriel ran up to her and grabbed her hand, I smiled and walked next to her. 

"Everything okay?" I ask and she nods, she had a smile but the amount of sweat and tears on her face showed pain. 

"As good as it can be in labor," she laughs. 

"This your wife?" A nurse called from the door, motioning to Gabriel. We all laughed and she raised an eyebrow. 

"She's carrying our baby," Gabriel smiles and motions to me. 

"How sweet," the nurse says and walks into the room.

"I'm gonna have to ask you to sit down so I can record her progress," the woman said. Me and Gabriel sat down and Gabriel exhaled loudly, he looked so incredibly stressed and I felt awful.

"Come here," I said and held my arms up. He moved into my chest and wrapped his arms around my torso, I wrapped my arms around him and held him close to me. I felt his tears soak through my shirt and I rubbed his back comfortingly.

"It's okay Gabriel try and relax," I whisper to him and kiss the top of his head. 

"We're having a baby Sam," he muffled and gripped my shirt tight. 

"Yeah we are," I chuckle and feel my own tears threaten to fall, "we're gonna start a fucking family." My voice cracks and he hears it because he starts to cry more, I shush him and rub his back more.

"You know you cried this much when we found out it was a boy," I laugh and he nods. I feel a smile curl on his face against my chest, I hold him tighter against me and I bury my face in his shoulder. 

"Everything is healthy," the nurse tells Uligy, "press the buttons when your contractions are closer together." Uligy nodded and gripped the sides of her bed, she was in pain and it was evident. I rocked Gabriel back and forth, he turned his head and we both watched Uligy from the couch. 

"I'm okay guys," she smiled, "you didn't have to come."

"We wanted to," I smile, "we worry about you. We'll be here for days if we have to."
