Germany had to work late. On this one day, of all days, he was called into work to stay later. It was just random crappy work that had yet to be done by the others, and he figured nothing bad would happen if he left Italy at home a little longer.
He really hadn't accounted on staying as late as he did. Apparently, there was a lot of extra work to be done. He glanced at the clock. It was getting really late. He figured that he should give Italy a call, expecting him to have called already.
He waited patiently as he already heard ringing on the other end of the phone. It rang four times, and then went to voice mail. That was strange. He was at home, right?
He redialed the familiar number, hoping for an answer.
"Ve~?"
"Feliciano, thank god."
"Ve, Ludwig…please come home…"
Germany sighed. "Feliciano, I know you want me home, but-"
"No, my tummy hurtsss! I feel really funnyyyy! Owie…"
Germany froze. "Feli…"
"Ve!!!!"
"Um…look. Why don't…um…I'm going to go call China and ask if he can come get you."
"Ve, why?"
"Well, remember how I told you that the baby was going to wanna come out this month?"
"Yes…"
"Well, it sounds like the baby wants to come out now."
"Ve, really?"
"Yes. Really."
"But…I'm scared…"
"Don't worry, I'll be over soon. Just…try to relax, okay?"
"Alright…"
Germany hung up the phone and began to panic. This was exactly what he had hoped not to happen. He snapped out of his trance and quickly punched in the numbers to China's household.
"Nihao!"
"Yao, bad news."
"Shén me shì cuò?"
"It appears our child is on the way soon…and I'm a little stuck at work."
"Would you like me to go get him?"
"Could you?"
"Of course. It's not much of a big deal, really. I'll just have to wake up Kiku…oy, bǎo bǎo, xǐng lái." Germany heard China speak over to Japan.
"Thank you. Really. I'll be over their as soon as I can."
"Hey, really-don't mention it." He heard a click which had meant he had hung up. Germany sighed out of fear. He didn't want something bad to happen to Italy while he was gone…
His boss suddenly passed by his office, allowing him to call out. "Hey, sir? Is it possible I could leave now?"
"Nein! Sie müssen arbeiten, bis du stirbst!"
Germany slammed his head on his desk, praying that Italy wouldn't do something stupid while he was away…
--
"Ve, baby, could you please stay in for just a little bit longer? Please?" Italy was uncomfortably walking around the living room, stricken with pain.
"How about I sing you a song? Okay…Pasta, pasta, pasta and pizza, that's all you need to live…it's covered in sauces and seasonings and spices, because it's pastaaaaaaa! Ow! Baby! This hurts! Owie…"
There was a knock on the door, which made Italy waddle over and answer it.
"Yao-nii?"
"Italy, there's not much time. We need to get you over to my place."
"Ve, why?"
"Well…by the looks of it, the baby is going to be here soon." Italy whimpered before grabbing China's hand, letting him quickly lead him out of the house.
--
The ride was unpleasant, as Italy was moaning and China was navigating his car as fast as possible, with a half-asleep Japan along for the ride.
"Thank goodness you know where you live, Yao!"
China face-palmed. "So, how is the pain?"
"It hurts a real lot!"
"No…liquids have been coming out of you, right?" China asked, very flustered at the context of his question.
"Um…"
"What is it?"
"I…I think I can feel them now…"
China slammed on the breaks right in the middle of the road. "Are you sure?"
"I feel wet…"
China resumed his driving, along with speeding up at least ten miles-per-hour.
--
Italy was brought into the house as soon as possible, China immediately getting him into the already made room. Japan, who only wanted to go back to bed, was stuck cleaning China's car, muttering, "I swear….this will all be worth it someday…it better be worth it someday…"
Back inside the house, Italy was starting to get nervous. "Yao-nii…this won't hurt much, will it?"
"You're going to start to feel a pain that's much worse, yes. But you still have a few minutes before that happens."
"Oka-owwwwwwwww! Help meeeeeeeeeee!"
China checked his information. "Well, it looks like it's time for the baby to come out."
"N-Now? What about Ludwig?"
"He'll be here as soon as he can. I promise. But it doesn't look like the baby's willing to wait. It wants out."
"Okay…" Italy held on to the blanket tightly, praying for his life that Germany would get there soon.
--
Germany raced past the other cars, getting some negative responses from the other drivers. It's not like he cared. He just needed to get to Yao's as quickly as possible.
A half-asleep Japan had told him that it had already started, judging by the sounds that came out of their house.
Germany was in a frenzied panic to get there on time, as he didn't want to miss anything super-important. He knew Italy was probably already complaining of dying and he was positive China had had enough of it.
He quickly turned into the driveway, not paying a lot of attention to the screech of the tires. Jumping out of the car, he noticed Japan had passed out on the hood of China's car. Reluctantly, he picked him up and brought him inside the house, careful not to wake him.
He set him down on the futon, scanning the room for any possible sound of Italy. But it was dead silent. "Kiku, how long ago was it that the noises started?"
Japan still slept silently.
"You're helpful…"
Germany suddenly heard an odd sound; one of a baby crying. He paused, before recollecting where the sound came from and then running towards it.
"Feliciano!" He yelled before pulling the door open. There he saw his lover, extremely tired, holding a small bundle.
"Ludwig…you made it…"
"I'm glad you were able to make it, Ludwig. Poor Italy here was crying for you ever since he started." China made himself present from somewhere in the room.
"Feliciano…" Germany crouched down and kissed him on the forehead, looking at the small child in his arms. "What's the gender?"
"It's a boy…" Italy looked like the only thing he wanted to do was sleep. He handed their baby to Germany, who looked at amazement at its features. He had Italy's brown hair and brown eyes. Upon seeing his father, he giggled. He even had a cute curl atop his head.
"I have a name for him…"
"What is it?"
"C-Carmine. It means vineyard in Italian."
"I love it." Germany smiled and pulled the three of them into a strong embrace. "Let's give him your last name, too."
"Really? Thank you…Ludwig…" Italy managed to get out as he drifted off into sleep.
Germany looked at the child once more. He wondered if he would have that catchphrase thing like Italy whenever he said "ve."
His question was answered when the child spoke. "Ne~"
Germany instantly knew this child would be trouble…
A/N: Hur, West and the child…ufufufu…
