The Arrival

Regina awoke with a jolt her hands grasping at the sheets in pain as she let out a strangled moan. After the subsided she turned to her wife who lay fast asleep facing her, internally she cured her wife's ability to sleep through anything. Shaking Emma's shoulder urgently the blonde opened her eyes and began to protest until she saw Regina's disheveled look and the obvious pain that she was yet again in as another contraction consumed her body.

"Emma the babies are coming." Regina gasped painfully, her hands once again clutching at the sheet of their bed. Emma sprang to action running over to the walk-in closet and throwing on the first coat and pair of shoes she could find. Then she picked up the bag they had packed for the hospital, running to Regina's side of the bed and helping her wife into the shoes that she had gotten for her out of the closet.

"Do you want to drive or puff over there?" Emma asked gently, making sure that she took most of Regina's against her to give her wife any relief that she could.

"Magic." Regina mumbled knowing that because how close her contractions were they needed to get to the hospital as soon as possible. Emma nodded and wrapped both arms around Regina and teleporting them to the main reception area of the hospital.

As soon as the white cloud disappeared Emma shouted out for some help. A nurse appeared automatically with a wheelchair for the mayor who gladly sat down and was wheeled down a corridor and into a private room.

The nurse placed a hospital gown on the bed and asked Regina to get changed into it while she went to go and get Doctor Whale. Within ten minutes Regina was sitting on the bed holding Emma's hand as Whale examined her. Emma kept placing kisses onto Regina's forehead trying anything she could to soothe the brunette's pain.

"Okay Regina on your next contraction I want you to push." Whale said calmly. Regina nodded and braced herself for the pain of the oncoming contraction. Pushing as hard as she could Regina squeezed her wife's hand until she was almost sure that it would break.

No complaints came from Emma; only words of encouragement. Whale was also encouraging her to keep pushing.

"That's it Regina keep going. Baby number 1 is nearly here." He paused what he was saying as Regina took a breather between the contractions. "Come on Regina, I can see her head just a few more pushes." Regina ready herself again and started to push as hard as she could. After two more pushes she heard the crying of her baby. Regina collapsed back into Emma's arms for a moment until the nurse placed their little girl onto Regina's chest with a towel over her back.

In that moment all of the pain was worth it. Looking at their beautiful little girl Regina had never been happier except maybe when she married Emma or when she held Henry for the first time. She looked at Emma to see her wife with tears of happiness streaming down her face.

Soon the pain of her contractions came back and Regina was reminded that she still had another two babies ready to come out. A nurse gently lifted their oldest daughter off of Regina and over to the over side of the room and began her examination at the baby.

Ten minutes later and a repeat performance of the first birth their second daughter was born. Again, she was placed onto Regina's chest for skin to skin contact. Happiness filled Regina and Emma as they looked at their second little girl. However, Regina did not feel that blissful happiness for long as a huge pain shot through her stomach, unlike her other contractions. Whale immediately noticed something was wrong and began shouting orders at the nurses in the room. The baby was taken off Regina's chest quickly and carried over to the examining area in the corner of the room where her sister was.

Emma could tell by the alarm in Whale and his nurses' faces that whatever had gone wrong was not good. She squeezed Regina's hand comfortingly, sparing a look at her wife she gasped in horror. Regina was now extremely pale, her usual slightly tanned skin had become almost gray, her eyes were squeezed shot and it looked like she was having trouble keeping her breathing under control.

"Whale!" Emma shouted in panic, the doctor looked up and saw Regina, he sprang up from his seat and pushed Emma out of the way as he and one of his nurses started to moving quickly around Regina, looking at her vitals and relaying information that Emma didn't understand. One of the other nurses in the room opened the door and ran out at Whale's orders.

"Get theater 3 ready now! Tell them we will be there in five minutes!" He yelled at her as she left. Then he started to move Regina's bed towards the door and began wheeling down the hallway. Emma had been in a state of shock just standing frozen not sure, what was going on. It wasn't until her wife left her line of sight that she ran after Whale.

"What the hell is happening Whale!" She shouted as she jogged alongside him.

"The last baby is breech and we think either the umbilical cord or the placenta has ruptured. Either way we have to get them in for a C-section, before the baby or Regina bleed out." Emma's heart stopped at the rushed words Whale said as they came to the surgery theater. She couldn't even think about what life would be like without Regina.

"Whale." She said in an oddly calm voice. The doctor stopped and turned to face the sheriff, letting the nurses and surgeon who stood waiting for them outside the room wheel the Mayor in and prep her for surgery. Emma looked at him taking a deep breath, she whole body ached with the weight of the words she was about to say. "If it comes to the choice of the baby or Regina," she paused has her voice broke "Save the baby."

Whale looked completely lost for words. Before he could say anything, Emma continued. "She'd never forgive me if I chose her over our child." The doctor looked at Emma with a sad smile and nodded his head, not knowing what to say. Then he disappeared in to the theater leaving Emma behind.

After what felt like an eternity Emma was shaken from her daydream when a hand touched her shoulder. Flinching away Emma stood turning to face a tired looking Dr. Whale, Emma quickly glanced a look over at the clock seeing that she had been in the waiting room for 3 hours. She didn't even remember coming in and sitting down.

"Emma," Whale once again jostled the blonde out of her thoughts "Regina and the baby are going to be just fine Sherriff. It wasn't as severe as we had originally thought. They'll need to stay in the hospital for a few days so we can keep monitoring them but we pretty confident that you can take you wife and children home in a few days." He finished calmly.

Emma let out a sob she had no idea she was holding in as relief flooded through her body. "Can I see them?" She asked tears running down her face.

Whale nodded gestured for her to follow. Arriving at the room that they had put Regina in to recover Whale left her to go in alone after saying that he would get the nurses to bring the babies over when Regina was awake. Emma entered the room her eyes going straight to her wife who was still asleep from her surgery. Her wife still looked pale but the heart monitor beeping steadily gave Emma enough of a guarantee that her wife was safe.

Sitting next to Regina's bed, pulling the chair closer so that she could take Regina's left hand in both of her own. Gently stroking the back of her hand Emma finally let the stress of the last few hours catch up with her. Growing tired she laid her head on the bed next to Regina's hip still keeping hold of the brunette's hand.

Sometime later Emma was awoken from her light sleep by the sound of Regina stirring. Emma sat up squeezing Regina's hand. Regina groaned, her brown eyes blinking rapidly as they adjusted to the bright, artificial lighting in the room. Feeling Emma squeezing her hand she squeezed back and looked over at her wife. It took a few moments for her vision to clear and then she saw Emma, her blonde her was coming out of her ponytail and her eyes were red from tiredness and also tears as Regina could see the track down Emma's cheeks.

"Hi." Regina croaked. She tried to clear her throat but it was still to dry. Emma immediately stood up and got her a cup of water that was on the table next to the bed. Taking a few sips Regina sighed as the cool liquid soothed her throat. "What happened?" She asked.

Emma sighed and lent forward to kiss Regina softly on the lips. "The last baby was breech and there were some other complications." Emma explained then internally slapped herself when she saw the sheer panic and horror that appeared on Regina's face. Her heart rate monitor started beeping erratically for a few seconds. Emma cursed and tried to calm her wife down. "Easy babe, Regina sweetheart please calm down, she's okay all three of our babies are just fine." Stroking her soft brown her Emma placed a kiss to her head.

Regina relaxed slightly her heart going back to normal. "They are really okay?" She asked looking up at Emma tears welling up in her eyes. The blonde nodded sitting down on the edge of the bed and rested her forehead against Regina's.

"Yeah, our babies are okay Regina, I promise. I thought I was going to lose you," Pausing Emma kissed Regina quickly. "Please don't ever scare me like that again. I can't even imagine what my life would be like without you in it." Emma felt tears on her face looking at Regina she realized both of them were crying.

Regina nodded her head and wrapped her arms around Emma's neck. Burying her face in her wife's neck breathing in her familiar and comforting smell. "I promise." The mayor murmured. Both women stayed like that for some time, holding each other and whispering words of love and promises. Eventually they were pulled apart by the noise of the door opening.

Looking up they saw Whale and two nurses wheeling in a crib each. Both mothers quickly forgot about their sadness when their children were put next to the bed, the biggest smiles appeared on Regina and Emma faces as they looked down at all three of their little girls for the first time. Whale stood quietly for a moment waiting until the nurses left the room and then gently cleared his throat to get the attention of the two mothers.

"Glad to see that you are awake Regina, I know you both must have some questions about what happened with baby Number three here." The doctor said, Indicating with his hand the baby in the crib closest to Emma. She was smaller than her sisters and unlike her sisters who both had tufts of dark brown hair showing from underneath their hats this baby had bright blonde hair just like Emma's.

"Oh, Emma she looks just like you!" Regina gasped. Reaching out her arm and lightly placing her hand on her youngest daughter's stomach. Emma nodded her head feeling tears once again well up in her eyes.

"Yeah, she does," Joining Regina she lent forward and softly ran her finger along the baby's cheek. "What happened Whale?" Emma asked still looking down at her daughter.

"Well as you know the youngest baby was in the breech position which can cause complications even in a single birth. She got her umbilical cord wrapped around her and so she went into distress which again can happen in single births and still be problematic." Whale paused to the let the information sink in for a few seconds then he continued. "We feared that because Regina had passed out that the either the umbilical cord or placenta had ruptured however when we got in and could assess the problem correctly it turns out it was just a small tear in the umbilical cord. Which again was still a problem but we managed to get her out and resolve the problem without Regina or the baby being in too much danger." Whale took a step closer to the bed looking directly at the youngest of the triplets. "She is going to be just fine, she's a little smaller then her sisters but that's nothing to worry about she's perfectly healthy and size difference is very common in multiple births. I'd like to keep all of you in for at least another 24 hours for monitoring but I am confident that you can be at home with your daughters in a few days' time." He finished smiling at Emma and Regina who both looked at him with so much relief he squeezed Regina's shoulder and nodded his head to Emma then left the room.

"Can you believe it. They are finally here Em." Regina breathed as she looked at her three beautiful daughters who they had waited so long for.

"I know. They are perfect." Emma whispered back. Wrapping her arm around her wife's waist she pulled her against her slightly "Look what we did Gina. We made the most beautiful babies I've ever seen." Regina chuckled kissing Emma on her cheek.

"We should name them." The brunette said as she reached out for youngest baby. Her little miniature Emma. Picking up the baby, who protested to the movement slightly by letting out a quiet whine. Only to settle down as soon as Regina placed her against her chest and made comforting shushing sounds.

Emma followed suit and lifted up the baby in the next crib, the blonde instantly recognized her second born daughter from when she had been placed on Regina seconds after being born just a few hours ago.

"Hello there little one." She uttered in absolute love. Rocking the baby gently taking in her face she looked like the perfect mix between Emma and Regina. Having Regina's hair, skin tone and nose. As well as having Emma's facial structure and eyes, which she opened to look up at Emma without making a sound of discomfort at being woken up. "I think I found our quiet baby Gina." As If on que the Baby in Regina's arms let out a wail causing both of her mothers to laugh.

"Yes, well it seems like your mini me is like you in personality as well, loud and wants attention all the time." Regina joked smirking at her wife. Emma stuck out her tongue at her wife, her attention was brought back to the still silent baby in her arms. "We still don't have names for them dear." The brunette said as she looked up at Emma. Who nodded her head.

"What about Alex, or Alexandra?" Emma asked regarding the baby in her arms. " I think she looks like an Alex, don't you?" Regina looked at the baby in her wife's arms who was still looking around the room with her huge green eyes.

"I love it." Regina said as she lifted up one hand and softly grabbed Alex's little foot in her hand shaking it gently, causing Alex to gurgle as she tried the squirm away from her mothers' grasp. Both women chuckled at their little girl loving filling up in both of their hearts at the most beautiful sound they had ever heard.

Regina turned her attention back to the baby in her arms studying her face trying to decided what name she liked best for her. After about a minute of silence a name came to her. "Paige." She said, well more like stated. Looking up at Emma she repeated her wife's previous words. "She looks like a Paige don't you think?" Emma nodded her consent opening her mouth to say something when a loud cry came from the third crib along. Having been so enthralled with the two babies in their arms they had nearly forgotten that there was a third baby.

Emma and Regina jumped at the sound then laughed loudly. "Looks like someone else takes after their Mama." Regina joked again. Emma Shook her head at her wife and then gestured for her to take Alex as well as Paige. After a few minutes of awkwardly trying to organize how the hold two babies they eventually found a comfortable way from both Regina and the girls.

Emma got up and scooped up the last baby, their oldest daughter. Emma's breath caught as she got a look at her firstborn daughter clearly for the first time. Just as Paige was Emma's double image their eldest was Regina's. She had never seen anything so beautiful, yes all of her children were beautiful but from the moment they found out that Regina was pregnant Emma has wanted a little girl that looked exactly like her wife and now she had her.

The blonde didn't realize she was crying until she noticed her tears falling onto her daughters' face. Regina's little mini me started to fuss at the feeling and made a frustrated noise. "Oh, I'm sorry my little princess, Mama didn't mean to cry on you." Lifting her said up to wipe her tears from her own face and the baby's she soothed her little girl. "It's okay baby I promise these are happy tears." Seeming calmed by Emma's voice the baby settled down as Emma made her way back to the bed to sit down next to Regina.

"Now we just need to name you little girl." Regina said in amazement at how much their oldest daughter looked like herself.

"Riley" Both women said at the same time. They broke into laughter, the biggest smiles on their faces. Riley had been a name that had first come up when they found out the Regina was pregnant and they had been trying to search for gender neutral names in case they decided not to know the sexes of babies. Emma and Regina looked at each other and then down at their three prefect little girls.

"Riley, Alex and Paige. Welcome to the world little ones." Regina said lovingly leaning up and kissing Emma's cheek.

"We've definitely got our work cut out for us Gina, they are going to have us wrapped around their little fingers in no time." Emma laughed and Regina raised an eyebrow.

"Who will they have wrapped around their fingers?" Regina demanded in her usual mayoral tone. Emma rolled her eyes.

"Okay fine. They're going to have me wrapped around their little fingers." Emma corrected then leaned in as if to whisper just to the babies. "Just like your Mommy does." Emma whispered but still making sure Regina could hear her. Regina chuckled as Emma looked at her and winked.

"That's right I do. And don't you ever forget it Sheriff." Placing a soft kiss on Emma's pink lips.

"Wouldn't dream of it My Queen." Emma smirked kissing Regina back. Their little princesses were finally in the world and they couldn't be happier to have the newest additions to their family.
