This is just a short one shot. I hope everyone enjoys it. You know that I like my criticism ^_^ so as always please, if its needed.
Megamind stared at his wife Roxanne an overwhelming sense of pride and awe washing over him. He also stared in wonder at the small blue baby in his wifes arms.
The baby was less than an hour old.
It hadn't been an easy labour. They had discussed all the options once they knew for sure that Roxanne was pregnant. She had wanted a home birth. He'd been more than happy to comply with what she wanted, but he had tried to talk her round to having the baby born in the hospital.
Finally she had agreed, but in the end she had gotten her wish.
Yesterday had began like any other since Roxanne had fallen pregnant. She had gotten a little tired with him constantly hovering behind her, helping her constantly, on edge, treating her as though she were made of glass.
She had finally reassured him that she was ok she didn't need to be watched around the clock.
He had been in the other wing in the Lair when suddenly he had heard a groaning sound.
When he and Minion had reached her she had been huddled over on the floor clutching her stomach.
"Roxanne!" he had rushed over to her side staring at her in the face,alarm etched onto his own.
"The baby, is it the baby?"he had breathlessly asked her.
A nod was all she could manage before collapsing into a fresh wave of pain.
" The hospital, Minion the Invisible Car NOW!" he had shouted.
A tug on his cape, he turned round. Roxanne's hand was clutching the end of it she shook her head.
Megamind realised that she'd never go to hospital willingly. Roxanne was too independent for her own good at times.
Minion hadn't said a word but had busied himself with fetching towels and duvets.
"Ok Roxanne we'll do it your way" he had told her.
He just needed to be with her and support her as much as he could.
The next few hours ( it felt like years to Megamind ) were intense. Many a time he had had to fight the urge to ring the ambulance, or at least construct something that would lessen her pain.
It was very hard for him to see her this way.
Roxanne swung from extremes of determination and hopelessness. She shifted position a lot, Megamind was right with her, changing his position to suit her. At one point she had been on her side with him massaging her lower back and softly, soothingly giving her words of strength and reassurance.
Then at long last the moment had come.
Now Megamind was staring at both of them and he knew that in that instance that he could never have been truly evil.
As he watched his wife breast feed their daughter he softly whispered "Roxanne"
She had looked to him positively glowing, her eyes softened "Yes"
"I love you" he whispered.
