Rude Awakening
It was still dark when Robin woke. She sighed softly, shifting and trying to get comfortable again. It was far too early to be awake, but something had caused her to wake up. She had not been sleeping well lately in part due to the fact that it was hard to find a comfortable position to sleep in when you were nine months pregnant. Her back ached. It was a little sharper than the ache had been lately.
Robin struggled into a sitting position. The ache intensified, and she reached for the bedside lamp. Contractions. She was feeling contractions. She was two days away from her due date so that wasn't surprising. Robin sighed again, wishing that the baby could have chosen a decent hour to arrive. It was too early to be awake. She was oddly calm. Robin had expected to feel more nervous about this.
She reached for the bedside lamp, flipping it on before turning her attention to her sleeping husband. If she had to get up at two in the morning to have this baby, he didn't get to sleep either. Soft golden light spilled from beneath the lampshade, illuminating the bed. Amon was turned away from her sound asleep. Robin poked Amon.
"Amon? Amon, wake up!"
He just murmured something, burying his face deeper in the pillow.
She poked him again. This time she got a better reaction.
"Robin?" Amon's voice was sleepy.
"Amon, wake up. I need you to drive me to the hospital."
That got his attention. He sat up and blinked at her owlishly. "The baby?"
She nodded. "The contractions woke me up."
Amon practically fell out bed in his haste. Robin bit back a giggle, but the musical sound slipped out anyway. Amon flashed her a smile that was part fond affection and part dawning panic. Robin couldn't help but smile back, despite the pain. Neither of them would have expected this when they first met. But now after six years, after conspiracies and danger and living on the run, after everything, here they were. Happy, content, and about to start a family. Robin couldn't think of a better life even if she had never expected it.
