Dirty Deeds (Part 2 of 'No Good Deed'

Complications.

      My body is past exhaustion. Pain rolls over me in waves like the ripples of warm water from the tub jets. I weakly flail over the edge and vomit, my body contracting so violently that even the water I stole from melting ice cubes cane back up. I viscously dry heave. Shaking my body out and suckling more ice to rid myself of the taste, I lean back into the water and breathe. You can do this. You CAN do this. You will meet your babies today woman! Today. Excitment now edging me on I focus on riding out my contractions and  the two men in the tub cheering me on. I faintly smile at them.

      We just recently decided on a house, in Morren. Thirty minutes from my hometown and family. We decided to both in Warren, where Evans's hospital is located. I had no clue he was a doctor until the gender scan at Simon's, let alone that he actually owned and ran a hospital alongside Dobrev. Incredible men really. Holden and Daddy H are in swim trunks alongside me. They have worked the past hour we've been here massaging and  pampering me, trying to ease the pain of labor. I am 6 centimeters dilated, when Evans checked a while ago and the pressure is unreal. It squeezes between my legs and along my lower back, hips and abdomen. Sometimes so strongly I nearly lose my breath. I regret denying all medicines now. After all I'd been through though with being injected with shit against my will, I can't stand the thought of unnecessary needles or meds. So I feel everything, without a buffer. I'm some type of masochist. Or I'm completely, utterly stupid. Fuck. Me. Oh God! The pressure tripled and I produce a low whine as a soft noise fills the air and the pressure halts.

      "H-Holden. M-My water just broke!!!" I mutter.

      "It's alright baby. It will be over soon. Water broke. Halfway there. Think about it like that." He kisses my forehead and pulls me into him. Daddy H pulls into my other side and runs his hands through my hair. I look up to see the call button flashing. He must've slipped off to hit the button. Dobrev, Evans and Elaine rush in. As they check me over, Elaine brags and makes over me. I hug her loosely, not to get her and her little bump wet. The guys were against it at first, but Elaine is wanting to natural birth too and is terrified. I'm basically letting her observe me so she can have an understanding and pick up any tips I stumble into. So far I just have: sex can kickstart labor, walking the halls is great but becomes impossible quickly, jacuzzi is much more relieving than the bed or bouncing on that freaking ball, and distractions are your best friend. When I keep focus on the excitement of my boys, talking to my big boys and friends, or calling my mom(who's on her way) I don't succumb to the physical aspects of laboring as much.

      "Alright. Are you ready Cia? Your contractions are back to back now, water is certainly broken, you are fully dilated. Do you feel the pressure? Like you need to push yet?"

     "Y-yes. For m-minutes now." I barely pant out.

    "You can begin to push whenever you feel it. Dont force it, just focus on your breathing, find a comfortable position and push when you feel your body naturally contract. Work with your body, not against it mommy!" He beams. I feel more in control of my pushing on my side, so I move to the shallow side of the giant tub pool. Daddy H quickly snatches me up and moves me to my intended spot. Holden dashing before us and sitting down. With the guys now sitting side by side, me across their laps side lying, I began to push. The doctors are below us, feeling my sides and watching intently. I feel such pressure. That's the only accurate description.  Pressure. Pressure. Pressure. I'm thirsty, hungry, and despite the intense agony, I am so tired. My eyes start to flutter on their own.

     "Stay awake dear, you are doing so wonderful! No medicine, and you have hardly made a peep. Our girl is so tough." Daddy H coos rubbing my back. Holden supports my head, kissing and whispering little flirts that despite everything going on make me blush.
