Dragon Tail

Chapter 3 ~ July 15, X795

NO POV
Natsu, Gray, Elfman, Gajeel, Jellal, Erik, and Laxus were all hightailing it to the grocery store. Who needs a car when you've got a father-to-be to get groceries? Al, Reedus, Jet, Droy, and Romeo had come along to make sure they didn't forget neccesities and actually stayed in track. The last time they'd gone on a grocery run, they'd only gotten junk for the girls and forgot all the healthy stuff. Lily and Happy went to go buy fish for Carla. Sting and Rogue had tagged along just for the fun of it, while Yuuka and Lyon had been getting ice cream with their kids when the Fairy Tail fathers-to-be came thundering past. Hibiki and Ren had also joined, running for their lives to get Jenny and Sherry's weird af pregnancy cravings.

Wendy, Bisca, Cana, Yukino, Milliana, and Lisanna were with Lucy, Erza, Juvia, Evergreen, Levy, Kinana, Mirajane, and Carla in case something happened or someone needed something. It was quite the sight: thirteen girls and one cat sitting around playing cards while eight waited for their husbands to get home, all of their bellies swelled to basically to the same size. Except Carla's duh.

A/N: I'm total shit at writing weddings so we're just gonna say that Levy and Lucy had a double wedding that Gajeel and Natsu weren't too happy about at first. Evergreen, Elfman, Mira, Laxus, Kinana, and Erik were already married. Erza and Jellal had a really small wedding while Gray just went along with Juvia's whole fantasy wedding. Anyway, everyone's super happy and totally in love. Love that!

Erza stared deep into Juvia's eyes, looking for any sign of a lie.

"BULLSHIT!"

"DAMMIT ERZA!"

"Haha lol calm down guys."

Everyone laughed as Juvia grudgingly took all the cards. Ever since her pregnancy Juvia had gone through a huge change. She'd stopped referring to herself in third person and Gray had almost fainted after hearing "Gray" instead of "Gray-sama." He was super happy about it, but it was just super weird. But then all of a sudden, you could hear the sound of water hitting the floor and Erza looked down to see a huge puddle at her feet.

"Shit."

And all chaos just broke out from there.

"Loke! Go get Porylusica!"

And for the first time ever, Loke actually just went without another word or question. Wow.

"Wendy, get Erza upstairs! Cana, help her!"

"Milliana! Yukino! Go get the boys!"

"Warren! Contact the boys and tell them to get their asses over here ASAP please!"

"Lisanna, help Juvia fill up buckets with water! Or just bring them upstairs!"

"Erza-san, are you ok?!!"

"Yes, I'll be- AH SHIT!"

"Oh my god she's two months early!"

"We're gonna need a whole lot of light to keep that baby alive!"

"SOMEONE GET STING'S ASS OVER HERE TOO!"

"OH MY GOD!"

"OH MY GOD!"

"SHIT!!! THIS IS SO STRESSFUL!!"

And while all of this was going on, Valeria, Vinnie, and Azkura just sat there with their mouths hanging open.

"MOMMY JUST SAID A POTTY WORD!"

Bisca and Cana just looked at their daughters in shock.

"I'm so sorry sweetie. Reedus!! Can you take them to the park please?!!"

And it got a whole lot worse not only a minute later...

"WHERE'S ERZA?!!!"

Jellal had basically broken down Fairy Tail's doors, screaming and asking where his wife was. Mira tried to calm him down.

"Jellal, she's fine. Don't worry about her. Wendy and Porylusica are with her right now. Just calm down and then you can go see her. Ok?"

"Deep breaths Jellal. You're gonna be a real man now."

"Shut up Elfman! Where are the others?"

"They're wrapping up and Sting should-"

Just like that, the White Dragon Slayer burst through the giant hole in the hall.

"Where am I supposed to go?!"

Mira pointed upstairs and both Jellal and Sting charged up the stairs, two at a time, but Sting opted to wait outside. He smiled slightly, seeing his Yukino through the crack.

I wonder if she'd want a girl or a boy?

Half an hour later, a baby's cry echoed throughout the guild hall and Wendy handed the tiny human to Erza to cradle in her arms.

"Congratulations Erza-san! It's a baby boy!"

Erza smiled at the baby, showing his face to his father. Jellal smiled, tears streamin down his face, at the tiny human that he had helped create and his precious Erza had brought into this world.

"What do you think Scarlet?"

"What do you think about Simon Fernandez, Jellal?"

Jellal kissed his wife's sweaty forehead and son's bloody forehead.

"I think that's perfect."

Yukino smiled at the budding family and hugged Wendy.

"You did it Wendy! Go rest, I'll take are of it from here."

"It was thanks to Porylusica-san, but thank you!"

Porylusica shook her head.

"No Wendy, you basically delivered a child by yourself. But go rest, I'm sure Romeo will freak out if he sees you like this."

Wendy's face heated up at the mentioned boy's name and Yukino smiled knowingly as the girl scurried out of the room. But for some reason, silence filled the room. Yukino hurried to the Simon's hyperventilating mother.

"Simon?! Simon?! Why aren't you crying?! Yukino?! What's happening?!"

Yukino took the child out of his mother's arms gently and nearly ran into Sting on the way. She nodded at him and Sting hurried downstairs to the little incubator that Reedus had drawn before leaving with the kids.

"Simon will be fine Erza, don't worry!"

And Yukino was right. A week later, Simon was just functioning the same way any other week-old baby would.
