JIMIN POV

Jungkook and I had a brief argument about where I would have the baby, quickly settled by the onset of another contraction.

This one seemed to be coming like Aera had and if that was
his plan, there was no time to waste arguing.

Instead, I had them spread a sheet of plastic between the mattress and the old blankets they laid beneath me because
I wasn't backing down on that.

Hobi helped me out of my clothes and Jungkook handed me up onto the bed, then went around to sit on the other side where
he could hold my hand.

His fingers shook as he laced them through mine and I squeezed and smiled at him
to show him I wasn't scared.

Holland leaned me forward so he could pack pillows behind my back, helping me to sit up against the headboard.

I hadn't noticed hobi leaving but he came back through the door with Cale, carrying my new birthing kit between them.

They laid everything out on
the dresser, ready to hand for when we'd need it.

I relaxed into the pillows and smiled happily at everyone.

Jungkook shifted a few inches closer to me.

"So, how long does this take?"

I laughed.

"It takes as long as it takes but
I think this will be quick, I
must have been having contractions all day and didn't notice, so we're pretty close to the—" Another contraction, this one both stronger and longer, stole the last word from me.

I curled around my belly and breathed out slowly, my mind diving deep, so I became unaware of the people
around me.

Instinct took over and I
followed the call of my body
as it took command.

When the contraction stopped,
I let out a long sigh and let myself flop back onto the pillows.

Jungkook pushed my curls back off my forehead. "You okay?"

"I'm fine, It's just labor."

"That's why it has that name."

I dropped a kiss on his lips and laid my head on his shoulder.

"Can I have one of the
blankets?"

It was just a little too cool in
the room for naked at the moment, though I knew I'd be grateful for the temperature
once things really got rolling.

Hobi handed him one from
the end of the bed.

Jungkook shook it out one-handed and draped it over me, tucking the edges down over
the two of us.

His body heat filled the space under the cloth and I hummed happily as I snuggled closer.

"I've decided that you're going
to hang around and provide
body heat every time I'm in
labor from now on." I told him.

"Happy to be of service." he
said.

His fingers closed tightly
around my hand and he smiled.

Holland sat on the edge of
the bed.

"Is there anything you want before we get busy?"

"Something to drink?"

"No, I'm good but thank you."

I watched him, searching for some hint of how this all made him feel

But his face was calm and if he was upset by my fertility, none
of it showed.
