First Time: Joshua

~…X…~

Prince Joshua wanted nothing more than to comfort Lucian in this very moment, but he knew that comforting her would not work until their baby is out of her. All he can do is hold her hand, telling her that he was beside her and that everything will be okay. He wanted to say those words, but his mouth would not open as he watched Lucian push and scream. He hated that part of him, when he cannot even say a few words to his wife. Being a prince and not knowing love until he met Lucian again, sucks. Now he does not even know what to do, he felt so useless. He read books about labor and what fathers' are supposed to do, but he forgot all those the very moment Lucian screamed. He wanted to hit his head on a wall for being a useless husband.

"L-Lucian…" Prince Joshua frowned, not at Lucian, but at himself. What should I do? I-I don't know what do to! He did not even notice that he was clutching Lucian's hand tighter until she looked at him.

"Joshua…" Lucian voiced out weakly.

"Ah! I'm sorry!" Prince Joshua exclaimed and immediately removed his hand from Lucian.

"Your Highness, push once more." The young, brunette doctor said behind his mask. He will not fail, he will get the baby out of Princess Lucian.

"Nghhhh!" Lucian with nothing to hold onto, tightly grabbed the bed sheet beside her. She knows that Joshua wanted to do everything to comfort her but his face shows that he does not know what to do. She would not ask him to hold her hand right now, she does not want to add any more stress to her husband.

"Once more, Your Highness." The doctor said, holding the head of the baby. "You're doing great." It was like the doctor was the one being the husband. Prince Joshua had not said a word of encouragement to Lucian since the labor began. He understood quite well what Prince Joshua is going through right now. Not every husband can be supportive at the first time of labor of their wife.

"Aghhhhhh!" Lucian cried out as she pushed once more. That's when she felt a hand grab her left hand, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Prince Joshua looking down at her.

"I'm right here, Lucian. You're doing an amazing job so bear with it a little longer." Prince Joshua said and kisses her forehead. He is not about to let another man comfort his wife. That is his his job and no one else.

Underneath the mask of the doctor, his lips twitched up, glad that Prince Joshua is finally supporting his wife. "Your Highness, I want you to push one last time." He said. "The baby is almost out."

With her last energy, Lucian took in a deep breath and pushed her baby out of her. She smiled weakly when she heard her baby cry in the doctor's arms as he handed him to one of the nurses. Prince Joshua sighed in relief after the doctor cut the umbilical cord of his child. Everything is over. "I'm so proud of you Lucian." He brushed Lucian's bangs away from her eyes as he removed the mask off his face.

"Thank….you." Lucian said quietly as she closed her eyes. She needed to rest.

After cleaning the baby, the doctor walked quietly towards the couple in the middle of the room. "Here is your son, Princess Lucian." He said as he handed the baby to Lucian with her arms open.

"He's beautiful." Lucian whispered as she caressed the cheek of her baby with her index finger. "I might spoil our baby, Joshua."

Prince Joshua kissed Lucian by the temple and down to her cheek. "I don't mind."

Lucian giggled and looked at Prince Joshua. "Here, Joshua." She handed the baby towards Prince Joshua who nervously took his baby from Lucian's arms. "I can see already that you're gonna be a great father."

"Ah." Prince Joshua nodded his head as he stared down at his baby, sleeping peacefully in his arms. His baby is so small…and really cute. He too might spoil his son in the future. "He's so….adorable." He whispered quietly, not wanting to wake up his new born son.

"Hehe~ he is. What should we name our son, Joshua?" Lucian asked. If she had enough strength, she would be taking pictures of her husband and son. At least she was lucky enough to ask one of the nurses to take pictures of her family before going into labor.

"Sieg." Prince Joshua replied with a smile on his face. He never felt so happy to have his son sleeping in his arms.

"Sieg. I like that." Lucian smiled. "Our Sieg will be a wonderful prince."

"Yeah, he will."

Hours of waiting in Caelum Hospital, the five princes along with King Noctis and Aiden were finally given the chance to see the couple with their baby. Prince Roberto was the most excited out of all of them.

"We're finally get to see the baby!" Prince Roberto grinned. "I can't believe Lucian asked us to be her son's godfather! This is amazing!"

"Calm down, Prince Roberto." Prince Keith sighed. "Remember to stay quiet once we get to the room. Lucian is probably sleeping by now." He said while trying to control his happiness down. He was excited too, he just did not want to show it since it will ruin his image.

Prince Wilfred softly chuckled. "Why don't you just admit that you're excited to see the baby too, Prince Keith."

"W-wha?! I'm not that excited!" Prince Keith retorted back.

"Then why is your face red?" Prince Glenn asked who was walking beside Prince Edward.

"I'm not!" Prince Keith shouted, feeling embarrassed that someone like Prince Glenn could see right through him.

"Ahaha! This is wonderful." Prince Edward clapped his hands together. "Aiden, you're going to be an uncle. Congratulation." He said, his eyes looking towards Aiden who was walking quietly beside King Noctis with a calm expression on his face.

"Yeah, and this old man is a grandpa." Aiden said and pointed his index finger towards King Noctis.

"Aiden how could you say that?!" King Noctis exclaimed. "I'm not that old!"

"You're forty-four now, dad. I see you as a grandpa." Aiden said in a monotone voice.

"Aiden!"

"Yes, grandpa?"

"I'm your dad!"

"Hn."

Prince Edward and Prince Roberto laughed at the father and son walking in front of them. They knew that Aiden is just joking around, and that he was just like Prince Keith, not wanting to show his emotions.

"Here we are!" Prince Roberto said happily as he ran in front of the group so he could open the door for them. When he pulled the door open, his eyes grew wife open, upon seeing Lucian holding her baby with Prince Joshua standing to her right side.

"Everyone." Lucian smiled, happy to see her friends and family.

"Lucian!" Prince Roberto and King Noctis both skipped their way over to Lucian, with cameras in their hands. "He's so cute!" Prince Roberto smiled.

"Hey, daddy Joshua." Prince Keith grinned, his arms crossed over his chest.

"Please don't call me that." Prince Joshua said.

"Wow, the baby looks so much like you when you were born, Prince Joshua." Prince Wilfred looked at Prince Joshua who blushed at his sudden comment. "It's amazing." Prince Wilfred chuckled and titled his head to the side.

"Everyone, this is Sieg, your godson." Lucian said as she showed baby Sieg in front of everyone.

"Awww!" King Noctis started jumping up and down but was stopped by Aiden who placed his hand on top of King Nocits' head. "He's so cuuuute!"

"Calm down, dad." Aiden said, but he could not control the smile forming on his face as he stared at his nephew.

"He's so…small." Prince Keith said as he stared at the baby in Lucian's hand.

"Babies are meant to be small, Prince Keith." Prince Glenn said.

"I know that!" Prince Keith shouted.

"He's an angel." Prince Edward smiled. "Just like Prince Joshua."

"P-Prince Edward!" Prince Joshua looked at Prince Edward. "Please don't say that!"

"But you are an angel, Joshua." Lucian looked at Prince Joshua with a smile on her face. "You're my angel and Sieg is our baby angel." She giggled when Prince Joshua's face turned bright red. She sure does love to tease him.

"Awww! I should have videotaped this moment!" Prince Roberto said.

"Don't worry, I'm already videotaping it!" King Noctis said, giving Prince Roberto a thumbs-up.

Those two are so alike, all five princes and Aiden thought as they look at Prince Roberto and King Noctis who are in their little world.
