The time has come

Jan 22, 2007 17:03

Coming up on the end of her eighth month, Marie was beginning to feel like she was never going to have the baby. Big as a house, wincing all the time from the kicks, she was smiling as broad as was possible as she helped the kids with their after school homework ( Read more... )

It does take Cain a few minutes to shake off the little kids who've decided to perch on his shoulders. When he does come up and find's that Marie's in the bathroom, the first thought is of nothing good.

"Marie? Are you okay?' He comes very close to damaging the bathroom's doorframe on his way in.

"Uhmm, Cain... My water just broke and I think I'm having contractions and my due date is still almost seven weeks away and..." She turns towards him, the front of her skirt wet.

"We're having a baby."

"I...you...oh boy." And with that he actually does damage the doorframe as he runs into the adjacent room and calls the hospital. It takes him only a minute to come back.

"I'm driving you. They told me to drive you. I think. I'll carry you." He scoops her up.

She doesn't fight him, not in the least. But then she gasps. No, it's not a contraction. "The kids? Who can stay with them? And what about my bag? It's in the closet and..."

"What's in the bag we need?" He's got a phone. "What's Morty's number? Can't we call them?"

Oh, it would be bad to panic now.

"Morty and Ali are good. Oh, or Ratty maybe? I... I don't know. Other Cain and his Rogue?" She's blathering. They should have planned for this. Natasha! She likes kids.

"Clothes, my books of things to do, numbers to call... everything."

thehuggernaut January 23 2007, 05:25:06 UTC

"Okay, okay." He gets the bag. "Other Cain did okay last time. What's his number?"

wannafeelyou January 23 2007, 05:54:18 UTC

"It's the fifth number in my phone and... and oh that hurts,' she whispered, tensing for the contraction.

thehuggernaut January 23 2007, 06:26:45 UTC

"Shh. Just breathe. It'll make it hurt less." He calls up the other Cain.

Cain pics up the phone. "Hello?"

He recognizes the number and has some idea what might be going on, though it's possible that Marie might call him for no reason.

She panted, trying to remember her breathing excercises for the pain as she clung to Cain's neck.

"Hey, uh, Cain, how fast can you get down here to take care of forty kids? This is kinda an emergency."

keggernaut January 24 2007, 07:06:01 UTC

"Pretty damn fast. Just need a few minutes to get some stuff together."

wannafeelyou January 24 2007, 07:26:48 UTC

Marie is close enough to hear what was being said. "Please hurry? God, please?" Whimpering, burying her face against Cain's neck.

keggernaut January 24 2007, 10:00:35 UTC

Sure she wasn't his Rogue, but the soft voice with the southern accent lit a fire under him like nothing else could. "I'll be right there, I swear."

He was already in his room, pulling a change of clothes out of his closet and stuffing them in a bag. He paused only to scrawl I'm at Marie's on a notepad and leave it in the kitchen for Rogue before PINpointing to the house in Nevada.

thehuggernaut January 27 2007, 04:50:47 UTC

Thank God he's here. Cain's borderline panicking and Marie's in pain. "Good, good, stay until we're back, don't know how long we'll be gone, oh my God..."
