Baylee helped El use the bathroom than get back up. She was pulling El's pants up when El gripped on her.

"Baylee wait." El said. Baylee stood up and held El's arms.

"What? What's wrong?" Baylee asked worried by El's tone. Suddenly she heard dripping and El was spreading her legs a little.

"Baylee-" El whined. Baylee hugged her.

"It's ok El it's ok." Baylee said.

"Don't leave me." El sniffled a little.

"I won't." Baylee said. El held onto her tight as Baylee led her out.

"Hey her water just broke." Baylee said. Joyce came over to hold El's other side to help her but El jolted away and hugged onto Baylee tight.

"El it's ok." Baylee said. El screamed out as her first contraction came and she nearly fell but Baylee had caught her.

"Easy-" Baylee gasped.

"Here get her in the tub, quick." Joyce said.

El was panting.

Baylee picked her up and lowered her into the warm tub.

"Baylee?" El groaned leaning against the wall and feeling out. 

"I'm coming." Baylee said and got in. El reached and found her and laid on her groaning. 

"Hurts-" El began crying. Baylee hugged her close.

"I know... I know but you've got it El you've got it..." Baylee gently cooed. She gently rubbed El's back for a minute. El held tight on Baylee. Another contraction came and El buried her face in Baylee before screaming out and sobbing.

"It's ok honey you're doing really good." Joyce encouraged. El pushed her head into Baylee as her hands and legs shook from the pain. El was whimpering. 

"H-hurts-" El sniffled to Baylee.

"I know El... just breathe ok? It'll be over before you know it and you'll have the baby in your arms safe and sound." Baylee said.

"Safe and sound..." El repeated. She nodded her head and held onto Baylee as the next contraction came. She screamed out and dug her nails into Baylee and bore down trying to breathe.

Hours upon hours passed of this process and Joyce and her team were becoming a little more concerned.

"El honey you have to start pushing." Joyce said. El whined through some pain and Joyce sighed.

"El can you hear me?" Baylee said a bit low. El moaned as to say yes.

"You gotta push, on the next time it hurts really bad I need you to ok? It's going to get the baby out and when the baby is out it won't hurt anymore. You'll be all better." Baylee said. El nodded her head.

The next contraction came and El pushed and pushed hard screaming out as she did.

"There you go." Baylee grinned.

"Good job El!" Joyce said a bit taken by surprise. El rolled onto her back on Baylee and sat up so that Baylee was sat up behind her. She lifted and spread her legs and held Baylee's hands in each of hers. 

"We've got some blood it looks like tearing." one of the nurses said. 

"What?" Baylee looked at Joyce confused and worried.

"The baby's just a little big. It's going to put her through some additional pain... but we can stitch her up after and she'll have to take it easy for a while longer than she was already going to have to." Joyce explained. 

"It burns." El suddenly grunted.

"Yeah that's normal honey." Joyce said.  The next contraction came hard and El only pushed a little before the pain became too much and she broke down and turned so she could hug Baylee. 

El grunted in pain and staggered out an 'oh-'.  

"T-the head-" El said. Joyce quickly got to her to look.

"She's starting to crown." Joyce said. Everyone gathered around now.

"Get her on her back." a nurse said.

"No." El muttered. She had pulled herself tight and into Baylee.

"El let them help..." Baylee said. 

"N-no you gotta get it." El grunted gripping on Baylee.

"El just relax ok?" Joyce said and gently put a hand on El and so did the other nurses to hold her in place. Baylee was about to get the to back off when a contraction came.

"No! No get off me! No!" El began screaming and Baylee quickly held her close and got everyone off. El was sobbing now.

"El... El push." Baylee said. El was on her knees now and had her forehead on Baylee's shoulder and her arms wrapped around Baylee. 

"I can't." El nodded her head.

"Yeah you can." Baylee encouraged.

"You don't get it... I can't anymore." El said. Baylee suddenly had a dark thought. She lifted El so that she could see her.

"I can't-" El mumbled.

"Hey don't you do that. No keep your eyes open. El?" Baylee said. Suddenly El pushed with all her might and the baby finally slipped out. Baylee got it to El and El smiled with the sudden realization she was holding her baby.

El held it a moment before giving Baylee a turn.

"It's a little boy." Joyce smiled. El leaned her tired head on Baylee.

"Good job momma..." Baylee smiled and kissed El on the forehead. The nurses gently took the baby and Baylee scooped El up and got her to the bed.

"Safe and sound." El smiled and hugged her girlfriend.

"Safe and sound." Baylee smiled.
