Sebastian watched as Claude ran away after pushing him against the edge of his table.
"Claude...come back..."
The pain was terrible for Sebastian. He knew that he was also having a contraction which wasn't good because Ciel wasn't supposed to be due for another three weeks. He might be premature. That's when he started to get up. He walked over to the phone and then sat down on the couch and then dialed Grell's number.

Grell was sitting at his desk filling out paper work. His phone was on silent so he didn't see or hear Sebastian's desperate phone calls. Ronald walked up to the reaper's door and knocked on it. The door was already open so Grell looked up and saw Ronald standing there.
"Ready to get lunch?"
Grell nodded and stood up. He felt his pockets and frowned.
"Something wrong?"
"I forgot my wallet at Bassy's house!"
"You want to go and get it? We'll still have time to eat when you come back.
Grell nodded and gave an apologetic smile.
"Yes, I'm going to do that. Sorry!"
He left the office and then the building to return to Sebastian's house, unaware of what he would return to...

He made his way to the door.
"Bassy! I left my..."
He opened the door to find Sebastian on the couch groaning in pain. The demon looked at Grell with pleading eyes.
"Grell..."
Grell's eyes widened in shock as he ran over to the other. He grabbed Sebastian's hand; he was breathing heavily.
"Bassy! W-what happened?"
"C-Claude...he...he came back..."
"CLAUDE DID THIS TO YOU!?"
Sebastian nodded and then bit his lip and closed his eyes as he rode through another painful contraction.
"Oww..."
Grell felt Sebastian squeeze his hands. Grell released one of his hands and rubbed the demon's back.
"It's okay...tell me what happened..."
Sebastian nodded and started to talk.
"Claude...he was drunk...we got into an argument and then he...he pushed me into the table and..."
"And he hit your stomach." Grell finished for him.
Sebastian nodded. Grell rubbed his back as he saw Sebastian close his eyes again.
"Why didn't you answer your phone?"
"I'm so sorry darling, it was on silent and I had it in my pocket."
"Take...take me to the hospital please..."
"Of course, come on."
Grell helped Sebastian up off the couch and walked him to the car after getting the coat.
"Easy there Sebastian..."
Sebastian sucked in his breath as he walked with Grell in order to suppress the pain. When they got in the car, Grell pulled out his phone and took it off of silent. Then he started texting Undertaker.
"Unnie, Bassy has gone into labor a few weeks too early, heading the hospital now please be there.
-G "
As soon as he sent the message, he heard Sebastian yell. Sebastian then looked down and gasped. He moved a hand to the seat and then rose it back up and it was tinted with blood.
"Grell..."
Grell looked back down at his phone.
"PLEASE HURRY!
-G"
He took the keys and put them in ignition and then drove to the hospital fast enough to get them there quicker and slow enough to not get them pulled over.
"Please Ciel...just wait a little longer...", Grell muttered to himself.

At the hospital, Sebastian was immediately taken to the delivery room, since he wasn't in labor anymore. The nurse who was prepping for the delivery started talking to Grell.
"Don't worry, ' doctor, Dr. Bestatter is on his way."
Grell nodded and watched as the nurse walked away. He laughed to himself. Bestatter is German for undertaker. His thoughts were interrupted when he heard Sebastian groan. He rushed over to the demon and grabbed his hand so Sebastian could squeeze it.
"Shh...it's okay Sebastian, it'll be over soon and we'll get to meet Ciel..."
"I don't want him to die..."
Grell kissed him on the forehead.
"He won't because I won't allow it. I'm a Grim Reaper, remember?"
Sebastian gave a pained smile and nodded.
"Indeed you are."
Ending their conversation was the person of wonder; Dr. Bestatter. He had grey silvery hair that didn't leave his head and he was wearing rectangular framed glasses. He walked up to them.
"Sorry for the delay."
"It's quite alright."
Undertaker smiled and turned to Sebastian.
"Are you ready to have this baby?"
Sebastian nodded.
"Is he going to be okay?"
"If we get this done now, the baby will be just fine. Though I warn you, the baby is a few weeks premature and what was the reason for you going into labor?"
"Pushed...into...a table..."
"So there might be some complications."
"Please...I just want them both to be safe."
"Of that, you have my word."
"Do I have to wait outside?"
"No, you can stay here with him. I'm sure he would want someone here with him anyway."
Sebastian gripped Grell's hand tighter. Undertaker noticed.
"There's another contraction. Alright then, let's get this started!"
xxxxxxxxxx
"Come on Sebastian give me another big push!"
Sebastian closed his eyes and squeezed the redhead's hand he tried his hardest not to scream. He's been at this for what seemed like hours. He's been having so many complications. The sac that Ciel has been nestled in was punctured, which was the reason for the blood not to mention that he was premature so Sebastian would experience more pain. Sebastian also wasn't built for this so he had to put extra effort into it. He was so sweaty and drained. Grell felt so bad about him, Claude did this to him and now Sebastian and the baby were at risk.
"Sebastian we're almost there...keep pushing!"
Sebastian let out a tiny yelp as he pushed again. Grell wiped some sweat off of the demon's forehead.
"Come on Bassy, you're almost there...You're doing so well..."
After the contraction ended, Sebastian turned to Grell.
"I can't do this anymore...I can't..."
"Bassy you can do this, you're Sebastian Michaelis, and you can do anything!"
"No Grell...I mean...I can't...stay awake for much longer..."
Grell was worried.
"No, no, no, BASSY?! BASSY STAY AWAKE!"
Sebastian leaned back into the pillow and his eyes fluttered closed and his breathing slowed. Grell was panicking.
"UNNIE! HE'S UNCONSCIOUS!"
Undertaker popped his head back up.
"He's what?"
He saw Sebastian.
"Oh no..."
He turned to a nurse.
"Get an oxygen mask on him."
The nurse gave a curt nod and then did as was told. She slid the mask on the unconscious man and Grell looked back at Undertaker to see what he would do next.
"Okay...this is going to be a bit of a challenge..."
He spread Sebastian's legs further apart and then got the forceps and did who knows what with it.
"What's happening? Is Sebastian okay?"
"He's fine; he passed out from the pain and the stress of the delivery. Also he's experiencing a lack of oxygen."
"What about the baby?"
"Sebastian's body is still forcing the baby out, he'll be here shortly I can see the head..."
"The head?"
"Yep."
Grell felt his excitement rush back to him. He was going to meet Ciel, after so many months...
"Alright Grell, are you ready?"
"For what?"
"For this."
Ciel's cries filled the room. Grell started crying tears of joy. What a pair of lungs he has. Undertaker and the nurse cut the umbilical cord and cleaned the baby after wrapping him in a blue blanket.
"Would you like to see him?"
Grell nodded slowly and clasped his hands together as Undertaker neared him with the baby. He bent down a little so Grell could see. He had a little tuft of blue hair on the top of his head, his eyes were closed so Grell didn't know what color his eyes were. The baby stopped crying and seemed to have fallen asleep. Grell ran a hand down the child's soft, pale cheek.
"Welcome to the world...Ciel..."
Undertaker stood back up.
"Where are you taking him?"
"Just to his incubator. He's premature, remember?"
"But Bassy..."
"When he wakes up, we'll let him see his baby, okay?"
"Sure."
Grell wiped away the tears as he watched Undertaker walk out of the room. He turned to Sebastian and stroked his hair.
"Ciel...he's here..."
A/N: The story isn't over just so you know. It will go on for quite some time! Not too long though
