Cruel Love (Gotham/Oswald CobblepotFanFic)

Mr & Mrs. Cobblepot's Vow: 78- Labor

"He isn't happy..."

Harvey heod the walkie talkie up to his mouth and said "I dont give a damn. He stays there or Nessita kills him. Lucius is trying to get the chip out of her brain as we speak and-" I screamed making Harvey cringe "-Lee and Nessita are trying their best here."

Edward Nygma was beside me holding my hand, which I was about to squeeze off of his arm, he tried to peep around the blanket, I reached out with my other arm and slapped him.

"Peep and I swear to God I will come up off of this table and rip your damn head off!"

"Dont get upset! That is my property under that blanket!" was shouted from the walkie talkie before a couple of yells was thrown in and Gordon came back on the radio "I dont know how I am going to deal with Oswald."

I yelled in pain from my head and my stomach "I dealt with Maroni, Falcone and Cobblepot. Nwver have I been put in this kind of pain" I said as I squeezed harder on Nygma's hand.

He yelped "Oh God, I just lost all feeling in my arm" he said and closed his eyes.

Lee looked up at me from where she was working "Lucius I hope you are almost done because I need her concentrating on giving birth" she said as she looked at the man behind me.

"I'm trying. This ...its in there. I dont know if I can get Ahold of it, with Nygma it wasnt that hard because it was just right there on that small pea shaped brain-"

Edward gave Lucius a look.

"-Walker really wants Oswald dead."

Harvey chuckled "Is bird season open, apparently?"

The walkie turned on "I heard that!" Harvey rolled his eyes at my husband before looking at us "As much as I hate to admit it. Oswald does need to be in here it is his kid being born, what do we do?"

Lucius looked down at me "How much more pain can you take?" he asked to which I looked at Lee and said "How much more pain killers can you give me?"

She shook her head "Just a little. I have already given you more than some women need to give birth. I can't give you much more, you would over dose" she said.

"How much is a little?"

She stood up and showed me a syringe with a inch of something in it, I sighed and looked up at Lucius "Do it. Harvey give me your tie and your hand" I said.

He did as told, I doubled his neck tie and put it in my mouth to which he groaned and said "My favorite tie now has germs" Lee put the needle in my arm to give me the shot and I gripped ahold of both Nygma and Bullocks hands while Lucius went to work.

----Oswald-----

I could hear her.

Her screams echoed through Jim's walkie talkie and it hit my heart every time "Could you turn it down a little!" I shouted and put my hands on my head as well sat in interrogation and I sighed "I should be in there. I shouod be beaide her, holding her hand. Not somebody having to do it for me!"

"I know."

I looked up at him "My wife is giving birth to my child and I dont even know what gender it will be!" I said with a dry laugh.

Jim looked at the table "What are you hoping for?" He asked me and I stared at him for a second.

"A girl. I want a girl to name after my mother. Gertrud Nessita Cobblepot."

Jim looked down at the floor "She would like that, Oswald."

"I know she would" I said proudly as I stared at the walkie talking and rubbed my hands together "My wife needs me and I cant be in there with her. I feel like I have betrayed her. I'm the reason she was sent to this Walker woman. If I had just kept her by my side instead of being so scared-" I stopped talking.

Maybe I should quit thinking Nessita needs protecting. Clearly she has protected me better than I have her. Even when it was between me and Maroni she still cared for me, why am I such a fool?

A fool in love.

I stared at the wall for a moment and shook my head "What has she ever seen in me?" I whispered.

Jim sat up in his chair "I've wondered that too" I sent him a go to hell look and he held his hands out "Clearly, she loves you. Otherwise she would have gone near you these last couplw of months. You and Harvey are all she has left, think about that for a moment."

"Jim! Its time!"

"Its been time, Harvey" Jim said into the walkie as he sighed at his friend.

Harvey's voice said into the radio nervous "No. She is havin this kid now. Lee can see the start of the babys head."

I looked to Jim and stood up "I have to be in there" I said and started to the door. Jim grabbed me by my arm and pushed me down into my seat, he held the walkie talkie up to his mouth.

"Tell Lucius to work fast. Oswald is about to be a lot to handle."
