"Newt...?" His voice caused me to jump. I quickly shoved the pregnancy test into my pocket and walked out of the bathroom.
"Ello love...." I smiled sheepishly and looked up at him. Percival kissed my forehead and paused when bowtruckle pulled himself out of my pocket. He pushed up my pregnancy test. I went wide eyed and grabbed it quickly.
"What was that Newt...?" He asked and frowned. I looked at him and frowned.
"N-Nothing..." I said and frowned. He held his hand out and looked at me. I gently laid it in his palm. He looked at it and froze. He went wide eyed and smiled.
"You're going to have my baby...?" He asked and looked at him. I nodded and looked up at him. He grinned and pulled me into my hug.
"That is amazing!" He grinned and kissed me then hugged me again. I hugged him back grinning.
After that point our entire life changed. Percival refuses to allow me to take care of my more dangerous creatures, though all of them could be seen as dangerous. Luckily, the creatures had taken a liking to him. He helped me out a ton with the them. As the pregnancy went on it was clear to everyone who'd come and visit that it was taking a toll on me. The baby was larger than I thought they would have been. And I couldn't really walk anywhere without needing Percival's help. Of course he came right away and would help me. It was also a bit stressful. Most of the doctors in the Magic world kept telling us to not have the baby because it was too dangerous. So it was starting to scare Percival and I.
Now at eight months, I was uncomfortable all the time. My stomach was huge and it often got in the way, but the creatures had started to be gentle around me. They gave me more room when I took care of them and they were easier when they took their food. Today started out different. I woke up in pain, plus Percival wasn't in bed. So I got up and headed downstairs to the kitchen. I got some breakfast for myself and ate it. I looked around for Percival and let out a sigh. I felt another pain wash over me and nearly fell I've. I let out a loud whimper as I put a hand on my stomach. I felt the baby move and frowned.
"P-Percival!" I yelled and looked around. I heard him mumbling in another room. I wuickly got up and went over. By the time I was in the doorway, liquid was already rushing down my legs and to the ground. He turned and saw me. He went wide eyed and ran over.
"Oh my god, okay. Stay calm... let's get you to the room... you sure you want an at home birth darling?" He asked as he ran a hand over my cheek.
"N-No hospitals..." I said and gripped his hand. He helped me to out bed where he laid me down. I panted as the pain get leaving then coming back. I groaned and grunted a bit.
"Newt..." Percival said softly and he dabbed my forehead with a washcloth. I frowned and groaned as the baby moved against my pelvis. I frowned and gripped Percival's hand. He frowned and held me close.
"You only have to wait until you feel the pressure build up..." he said softly. He held me hand and watched me. I laid my head on his shoulder biting my lip. It was taking everything I had to not scream out.
After about an hour I couldn't take it and started to push. Percival had gone to another room to get some ice chips.
"P-Perc" I cried out as I felt the baby's head start to come out.
"Coming" he said and walked in. He saw my face and sank beside me holding me.
"You got this" he said in my ear. I nodded and got into the proper spit. I hummed and waited for my next contraction. When it hit I bore down and pushed. I cried out in pain and frowned. Percival kept his hands on my lips massaging them as it continued. I took a break then pushed again.
It took a long time for the baby to slide past its shoulders. When it passed the shoulders I panted and moved. Percival rubbed my back and helped me get comfortable. When I got into the spot I pushed again. I felt the baby continue to move down. I felt Percival's hand against my thighs as he caught our child. I fell against him slightly as the baby was finally out. I panted as Percival used his wand to clear our baby's throat and get them to react. After a few minutes of nerve wrecking silence the baby let out screams. Percival cut the baby's cord and laid them on my chest.
"Our perfect baby boy" he Said softly as he helped me delivers the after birth. When that was done and we were all cleaned up we were sitting in bed figuring out the little ones name.
"I got it... Percy James" I said softly and rocked the baby in my arms. Percival kissed me cheek and smiled.
"Okay" he said softly and pet our son's head.
