Ell May

It had been many days since i had moved back from Birmingham and found Finn every day since then he wouldn't let me out of his sight. We spent every day together, we even somehow managed to squeeze on a single bed in John and Esme's spare room. During my time back in Small Heath i had rekindled mine and Esme's friendship it was almost as if we were never away. Although i had missed the birth of their newest Shelby member i still felt connected to him. 

"Ell are you coming shopping with us" Esme bellowed up the stairs 

"Yeah just give me 2 minutes"

"Hurry up" 

Quickly i waddled my way down the stairs trying to catch my breath as i got to the bottom and that's when i felt a sharp pain shoot through the bottom of my stomach thinking it was just Braxton hicks again i continued to walk forward towards the kitchen where the rest of the Shelby's/Gray's were all seated. Again another pain shot through my stomach causing me to quickly grab the counter while breathing deeply.

"Oi May did Finn fuck you that hard" John laughed into the filled kitchen

"Shut the fuck up John" i moaned as i felt another wave of pain hit me 

"Ell?" Esme cooed as she approached me 

"Esme help" and that's when it happened my waters broke, the liquid cascaded down my legs and pooled around my feet "Fuck i'm sorry Esme"

"Shh don't be sorry, it's happened many times before" she laughed while trying to get John to help me into the living room "Michael call your mum and John will you please find Finn"

My screams filled the room as i felt another pain rip through me.

"It's going to be okay Polly's on her way" Michael mumbled as he came into the room who was followed by Arthur and Thomas 

"This isn't a fucking show" 

"No it's not but we are here to keep you company until Pol gets here" Thomas scolded.

The room became increasingly hot and the lads voices grew quieter. 

"Oi Esme i think she's dead" Arthur bellowed into the kitchen causing a frantic Esme to bolt into the small living room 

"She's not dead dickhead, she's in labour" the older woman cursed as she made her way around the sofa. "C'mon let's get these tights off, boys" Esme paused looking at the three men stood in her living room. They all quickly caught on what was happening and the men made their way out into the kitchen sat in silence until John came sprinting into the living room. Not bothered by the fact i was laid on his sofa half naked almost ready to give birth.

"We can't find Finn, nobody has seen him" 

"Fuck.."
