(Keith's Perspective.)

"OKAY! WHERE IS LANCE?!"

The nurse steps back and sends a look at Shiro.

"I'm sorry. I don't know."

He says sympathetically.

"Are you in any pain sir?"

She asks me instead.

"NO SHIT!"

"Okay, well you can have the epidural now if you want."

"OF COURSE I WANT IT!"

She turns around to Shiro just as the door opens.

"I'm here."

Lance breathes out as he rushes to my side.

"We good?"

"No. But we'll get there."

"Are you the father?"

The nurse asks hopefully.

"That's me."

"Okay."

She sighs.

"We're ready to do the epidural now. I'll talk to the doctor and get everything ready."

He nods at her before turning back to me.

"Adam is taking Anna to my mama's. She'll stay there until we go home."

I nod and Lance extends his hand out to me. I grab it thankfully as he reaches out with his other hand to caress the side of my face.

"I'll be here the whole time. Kay?"

"Kay."

"How do you feel?"

The nurse asks cautiously.

"Better."

She nods.

"Good. I'll be right back with doctor and we'll see what'll happen next."

She leaves so now it's only me and Lance.

"Shiro said that everyone is here."

"What does he mean by everyone?"

"Everyone we know at the Garrison."

"You're joking."

"I'm not. He sent a picture."

I look over at him in surprise.

"Really? This is our second kid. It's not really a huge deal that I can get pregnant anymore."

"Yeah, but they still probably want to be here. Who really knows."

I sigh and look at the wall in front of me.

"We need a name."

"How about... Caleo?"

"Where do you pull these names from? They're always just- there."

He grins at me.

"It's latin."

"You know latin? Since when?"

He shrugs and lifts our interlocked hands.

"I don't really. I remember seeing it somewhere and I thought it sounded nice. Apparently it means flame. The red lion has fire so it kinda suits."

"Hm... Caleo. I like it."

"So we have Andromeda and Caleo?"

"Yep. I guess we do."
