Ill Intent
Chapter 4
A Brand New Member
Gekkostate
Medical Room
One Week Later
Talho sat nervously on the cold table in the medical room, Mischa rolled her pen on the counter, and Holland tapped his foot impatiently on the ground. He grunted. "So, what are we doing?"
Talho looked down at her swollen belly and bit her lip. "I dunno, whatever you think is best Mischa."
The older woman smiled. "Why don't we give it one more week, if the baby hasn't then, we will induce labor." The brunette's eyes shot across the floor, to Holland's feet. "We can't wait to much longer though, its already overdue." Talho nodded slowly.
She looked up from Holland's feet to his face. "Is that alright with you Holland?"
Holland sighed. "I'm ok with it, whatever you wanna do." Talho rubbed her arm uncomfortably, Holland leaned back on the wall behind him, and Mischa stood up and brushed herself off.
The olderwoman collected her pen and papers. "I have other matters to attend to, let me know when you have made up your mind." Holland nodded as she left. He turned his attention to Talho, who started swinging her legs and biting her thumb nervously.
He noted her behavior and walked over to her. "What's wrong?"he sat down next to her and she looked away. "What?" he took the hand she was biting and held it in his. "I wish you wouldn't do that."
She looked at the ceiling and then the floor. "Do you think I can do it?"
"Do what?" Holland breathed.
She wiggled a bit. "Do you think I can be a good mother?"
Holland's face softened and he smiled. "What are you talking about?" she looked like she was going to cry. "Quit worrying! You'll be fine." he pat her head. "You take care of all of us on the Gekko. You will be great, I promise." Talho looked up and smiled.
Her eyes seemed to light up a bit more. "I hope so." she rested her head on his shoulder and yawned.
Holland ran his fingers through her thick brown hair."So you sure you wanna have it here? There is a really good hospital in this city, even Hap said it was fine if you wanted to go there."
Talho smiled. "No, I want to have it here."She nuzzled his shoulder. "Thanks though."
Gekkostate
Holland/Talho's Chamber
Four Days Later
Holland scratched his head as he watched His lover sleep. If the baby doesn't come within the next three days were inducing the labor, I hope that's not the case. A hand brushed against his thigh, making him jump.
"Holland?" she looked at him, sleep still in her eyes. "What are you doing?"
he looked at her. "Nothing."
Talho smiled as if she knew everything. "I know its due soon, but don't worry so much!" Holland looked at the floor. How does she always know... Talho grunted as she got up out of bed. "After this is over, I am so smoking with Stoner." she grinned fiendishly.
Holland chuckled. "Sure, we both will."
"It's a date then!" She winked at him, grabbed a rather large white shirt and threw it on. "I can't wait till my body looks the way it did before...?" she paused as she felt something warm run down her legs. No way! She looked down slowly, water was everywhere. She froze.
Holland who was looking out the window turned around. "Talho?" he could see the fear spread across her face. He panicked "What's wrong?" He rushed over to her and touched her shoulder.
She trembled. "Holland! Its time!" he took a step back.
The scruffy man heard what she said and for some reason cold not believe it. "What?"
she swivled around to face him. "My water just broke!" he scanned her face he could see her wincing in pain. She cried as she fell to the floor doubled over in pain.
He shook his head in disbelief. This can't be happening now! "FUCK! Talho!" he bent down and scooped her up. "Hold on, I will take you to Mischa!" Talho's breathing got heavy. She answered him with a loud painful cry. Holland grunted as he ran down the Hallway. Hilda was walking down the hallway reading a book. "GET OUTTA MY WAY!" Holland screamed.
Hilda jumped out of the way into the wall as he passed her. "Holland what the hell?" Holland slid around the corner.
"SORRY ITS TIME!" He yelled as he ran down the hall. Hilda scratched her head and gasped when she figured out what he meant. He finally made it to the Medical room. He slammed his side into the button to open the door. "MISCHA!" he yelled over Talho's cries as the door flew open. The Older woman flipped around.
Mischa took one glance and pointed to the bed. "Lay her down over there please I will be right over." Mischa went to go wash her hands. Holland lay Talho delicately on the bed, not wanting to inflict anymore pain on her. She began panting. Leader brushed the hair out of her face and sat next to her, letting her grip his hand. She held it tightly, squeezing hard every time she contracted. Mischa shook her hands, getting off all the excess water.
The old woman positioned Talho's legs on the bed. "Talho, you want a painkiller?" Talho grimaced as she contracted once again.
"YES!" she pleaded. The Older woman cleaned off and administered the painkiller.
Mischa smiled and checked her dilation. "Not quite there yet, but Shouldn't be to long!" Talho panted harder. Holland wiggled uneasily and wiped the sweat off her brow with his hand. "Alright! Talho when I tell you to, push." Talho gritted her teeth. Holland's expression hardened. Talho squeezed his hand tighter and met his eyes with hers.
She cried as pain surged through her body. "Holland." He could hear her pain in her voice and eyes. "Don't worry I will be fine. I am not going the way your mother went." she huffed and cried again. He cupped her hand in both of his and swallowed hard. "I will be ok! I promise!"
Mischa slid her gloves on."Ok now Talho." Talho's face went pink as she pushed. She began crying in pain. Holland winced as she crushed his hand.
He wiggled his fingers and then gripped her hand tighter. "You can do it."
After an hour or so Talho finally made the last push. Talho gasped and closed her eyes, collapsing on the pillow behind her. She smiled gratefully as she heard the cries of an infant. Mischa smirked. "Congratulations, you are now the proud parents of a strong and healthy boy." Holland smiled as Mischa washed the child off and wrapped him up in a blanket. She handed the baby to Talho.
Talho's eyes were tired but happy."Hey there." the baby stopped crying as she cradled him in her arms. Talho grinned. "Maybe I am not so bad at this after all!" Holland leaned over to get a look at the baby. Talho pulled at the blanket so she could get a better look at him too.
Leader bent down and kissed her forehead. "Thank you, he's beautiful, Talho you did a fine job."
she blushed slightly and yawned. "He looks just like you, here." She handed him the baby. Holland took him into his arms. The baby sighed. Holland admired his dark hair, and hazel eyes.
He looked from the babe down to his mother. "I think your wrong, he looks more like you." Talho yawned sleepily once more.
Mischa walked over to the intercom."I am proud to announce the newest member of the Gekkostate has been born, A strong and healthy boy of 7 pounds 8 ounces!" Talho smiled as she slipped into sleep. Holland looked down at the baby who yawned and went the way his mother did, Fast asleep.
