Rooney desperately tried to move the hand from her throat, her breathing becoming more and more unstable. "I've always admired the girls Eve has showed me. The girls she has taken to bed. You're quite the competition I must admit", the woman said as she held the girl tight. She looked down and smiled at the baby bump.
"And looks like you're starting a family of your own", she said, Rooney desperately trying to breathe through he small gaps of her trachea. "How you two decided to make you pregnant is beyond me. How did you do it? Donor? Previous boyfriend? Rape?"
Rooney kept quiet, knowing Eve would be home soon with their food. But suddenly the door opened and Rooney turned her eyes towards the door. The woman smiled and held up her finger sushing the girl. Rooney was about to open her mouth when she felt something poke her belly and she knew it wasn't a kick.
"Say one sound and I'll blow the little kid's head off", the woman whispered into the girl's ear and Rooney closed her eyes as tears overwhelmed them, falling down her cheeks.
"Sorry babe, I forget my wallet. I'll be back soon", Eve's voice ring through the house and Rooney desperately wanted to reply, but the woman in front of her eyes her with a knowing look. If she said a single sound their child would be gone.
"Babe?", Eve called out her girlfriend and when she didn't receive an answer, she furrowed her eyebrows and walked towards the bedroom. The woman in front of Rooney let slightly go of the girl's throats and whispered into her ear.
"Get her to leave", she said and Rooney nodded clearing her throat.
"Yeah babe so-sorry. I'm in the bathroom", she said and they heard Eve stop in her tracks.
"Okay, do you want anything other than your onion rings?", she asked and Rooney swallowed a lump.
"Just a chocolate milkshake, that would be great", she said and Eve nodded walking towards the door.
"Alright. I'll see you in a bit. Love you"
"Love you too baby. I love you"
Eve smiled and walked out of the house and Rooney heard the door shut, tears falling again. "Good girl", the woman whispered and Rooney felt the hand tightening around her throats once more. "Now where were we?"
Violet walked inside her bedroom after a long shower and jumped back as she saw her four little brother's laying on her bed. She frowned and walked over to her bed smiling down at her brothers. "You guys are so sweet", she said and caressed Duncan's forehead.
"I agree", Regina's voice rung through the room and Violet turned to her mother who smiled walking in with the three onesies the triplets once had.
"What about Desmond?", Violet asked and Regina smiled at her daughter, putting down the onesies.
"I have that covered", she said flicking her wrist and a fourth onesie appears in her hands with his name on it. "You can take yours of the onesies. I want you three to have yours to keep", she said and Violet smiled and took hers putting it on her desk.
"I've decided to give them onesies with their names on instead", Regina said and flicked her wrist again, letting three bigger onesies appear in her hands with the boys names on them.
"They're adorable", Violet said taking Duncan's and Regina smiled nodding.
"They are"
"I can't believe I was this small once. It's wired to think that I could fit in this tiny thing", Violet commented holding it up in front of herself and Regina smiled and kissing her daughter's temple.
"Well sometimes it's also hard for me to believe you all came out my virgi—"
"Okay okay mom, that's enough", Violet stopped her mother holding up her hand as she closed her eyes and Regina laughed at her making Violet chuckle.
"But I brought them here to teach you how to dress a baby properly. I want you all to learn that so your mother and I can have our dinner night outs and that stuff while you guys watch out for them. I want you to be prepared, so you're able to take care of a child once it's your turn to become a parent one day", Regina said and Violet smiled and nodded in understanding, thinking of her sister who's soon having her son. Only two more months.
"Alright. How about you show me how to do it the first one and I'll take the next?", she suggested and Regina smiled and nodded in agreement before taking Daniel into her arms, kissing his cheek softly and Violet smiled at the action, seeing the love in her mother's eyes as the woman looked at her son.
Emma walked down the stairs and towards the kitchen when she heard some wired noises coming from the living room. She turned around, eyebrows furrowed and walked over to the room, opening the door, only to see the most shocking sight she's ever seen. Her two foxes, one on top of the other, its hips going back and forth. Widening her eyes she quickly backed out of the room, her eyes still wide as she leaned against the closed door.
"What the fuck?!"
"Ma? You okay?", Crevan asked walking down the stairs and Emma turned to her son eyes wide. Crevan almost laughed at his mother's face. "What happened? You look like you've just spotted a wolf on the street", he said remembering back to the story his brunette mother had told him about her and Emma's trip to New York where they saw the wolf on the street.
"I think I would rather see a wolf than that", she said pointing at the door and Crevan frowned at her stepping closer.
"Is it really that bad?"
Without answering Emma opened the door and Crevan furrowed his eyebrows at his mother for a moment before looking inside, seeing Crevan on top of Todd, obviously doing the dirty buisness and Crevan widened his eyes and stepped back out so Emma could close the door. Awkward silence took over and Crevan made a face, biting the inside of his cheek.
"Yeah I think I'll take the wolf too", he said and Emma nodded in agreement, completely in shock.
"Please, do-don't hurt me", Rooney cried out and the woman laughed in her face, still holding her up against the closet.
"You think you're so protective of your siblings and Eve, but you're just as pathetic as they are", she said clicking the gun ready to shoot and Rooney cried harder.
"No please please", she begged and the woman smiled at the sight. The girl begging for her life. It was obvious she was scared and it only made the woman smile wider.
"Yes. Beg for your life. Let's show Eve how it feels to get your heart broken", she said and Rooney cried harder.
"Please, I have... I haven't done anything", she cried out and the woman chuckled shaking her head.
"You don't get it do you? You're dating Eve. You've done the worst thing you could've possibly done"
Rooney cried, more tears coming and she felt the gun pressing harder into her stomach. "Please don't hurt him", she cried and the woman smiled wide. A clicking sound was suddenly heard and she turned to see Eve standing next to her, a gun pointing right at her head..
"Let my girlfriend go or I'll shoot", she said and the woman smiled at her.
"Eve. Nice seeing you again"
"I killed you", Eve said and Rose chuckled shaking her head.
"Did you really think it would be that easy?", she said anger taking over and pressed Rooney harder into the closet and Eve brought her arm around Rose's neck, throwing her away from Rooney. The girl fell from the closet and Eve reached her just in time to catch her. She quickly looked her over, seeing severel marks on her throats before turning around meeting Rose standing a few feet away, her gun in the air.
"You know I won't hesitate to shoot Rose", Eve warned her and Rose smiled stepping closer.
"Neither would I. You deserve to pay for your crimes", she said and Rooney furrowed her eyebrows at her girlfriend but didn't say anything, too scared and protective to do so. If she did anything stupid it could risk their son's life.
"Rose that was a long time. I have paid my debt", Eve said, but Rose shook her head.
"You haven't paid shit until that girl is dead. And that idiot of a man couldn't even get his job done", she said and Rooney frowned at her.
"Man? Albert Spencer? You sent him", she said and Rose smirked turning to her.
"Smart girl"
"Rose enough. You don't have to do this. We can work out a deal", Eve said and Rose turned to her anger taking over a face.
"Let's. I leave you alone, and in return, I'll kill your girlfriend", she said holding up what gun towards Rooney.
"NO!", Eve screamed and shots were fired. Eve turned to see Edmund standing by the door a gun in his hand and Eve cried out in relief.
"Eve", Rooney's voice said and Eve turned just in time to catch the girl as she fell, seeing blood coming from her belly.
"No no no no no, Rooney please, stay with me", she begged getting down on her knees as she held Rooney, her palm cupping the girl's cheek.
"Save him. Sa-Save our baby", the girl whispered and Eve could see blood coming from the girl's mouth. She turned to Edmund who already stood on the phone with the hospital, before turning back to her love in her arms.
"Eve"
"No, no Rooney, you don't get to leave me now! We have our whole future planned. We have our son. Think of our son", Eve cried out, feeling the warm blood on her hands and she looked down at the belly, seeing blood everywhere. "Rooney please. I love you", she whispered and Rooney closed her eyes.
"ROONEY!"
"Seventeen year old female, shot in the stomach and six months pregnant", one of the doctors said as they came into the hospital with Rooney in the bed, Eve running next to them. Whale came running down the hallway and took the bed with him back.
"You have to stop here miss Rothlo. We can't take you further", Whale said, but Eve just held on tighter on Rooney's hand.
"Eve you have to let go. They have to save her", Edmund said and successfully pulled Eve's hand away from Rooney's, letting the doctors take her away. Eve buried her face in her brother's neck, crying her pain and heart out.
They sat in the waiting room, Eve still crying, Edmund comforting her when the doors opened and the Swan-Mills family came running inside, everyone except for Emma with a baby in their arms.
"Eve!", Emma called after her and Eve turned and saw Emma running towards them. She stood from her seat and met Emma halfway, hugging her tight.
"Where is she now?", Regina asked Edmund and the man walked over to her giving her a sad look.
"She's in surgery. She was shot on the stomach", he said and they all gasped Eve crying harder.
"I'm so sorry", she cried out into Emma's blonde locks, but Emma quickly shook her head.
"It's not your fault Eve. Don't worry about that. Worry about Rooney and your kid. Only them", she whispered back, but Eve still felt bad. Rose was angry because she cheated and she deserved the pain, but not this pain. She deserved that bullet, not Rooney nor their kid.
"Swan-Mills", Whale called out the family and they all instantly stood from their seats, Emma and Eve running towards the doctor.
"How is she?!"
"Is she alive?!"
Edmund walked over to Regina and offered to take her son while she walked over to doctor Whale and Regina gave an appreciated smile giving him the boy before walking over to stand next to her wife.
"Rooney is alive and is currently resting in her room", he said and Eve felt a huge relief filling her body and tears fell, Emma and Regina turned to each other and hugged each other tight, Emma kissing her forehead before letting their foreheads meet.
"She survived baby", Emma whispered and Regina nodded feeling tears fall.
"She was lucky the shot was nowhere near the the heart and we were able to remove the bullet", Whale said and they all nodded looking away in thought.
"How about my son?", Eve asked and Whale turned to her looking at her for a moment before sighing deep.
"Due to the shot, we had to open her up in order to get the bullet out and for the safety of your child, we had to deliver a c-section", he said and they all widened their eyes.
"She has already given birth?", Eve asked with a worried frown on her face and Whale nodded sighing deep. "But how can you do that?! She was only six months in, the baby is too small", she said and Whale sighed.
"Come with me", he said and they all followed the man down the hallway and turned to the left before walking into a room with infant beds. They walked inside and Whale walked over to an infant incubator and nodded towards him.
"Say hello to your son miss Rothlo", he said and Eve gasped as she saw her tiny son laying in the incubator with wires attached to his small body.
"Oh my god", she whispered putting a hand on top of it and Emma smiled squeezing Eve's shoulder.
"Congratulations", she whispered and Eve let out a soft laugh as she watched her son sleeping for a moment before turning to doctor Whale.
"If we hadn't delivered as fast as possible, your son wouldn't have the slightest chance to survive. And the risk of him not surviving is still potentially high", he said and Eve felt tears in her eyes turning back to her son and she cried out for a few moments before cleared her throat.
"I wanna see Rooney", she said and Whale nodded turning to the nurse who stood next to the boy in the incubator.
"He can stay next to Rooney's bed", he said and the nurse nodded and they walked out of the room, the boy following with them. They walked into the room and Eve ran over to Rooney who laid in the bed, just as many wires attached to her body as their son had.
"Oh my Rooney. My beautiful Rooney", she whispered, her forehead touching the girl's and Emma and Regina walked over to her, standing on the other side of the bed looking down at their daughter. She had bandages on her stomach, obviously from the gunshot and cut from the c-section.
"She's alive baby", Emma whispered once more and Regina nodded against her wife's neck. Crevan, Violet and Emmett walked over to the couch and sat down with their little brothers, Edmund following suit.
"They're cute huh?", he said and the siblings turned to him and smiled nodding in agreement.
"Have the two of you thought of a name for him?", doctor Whale asked turning to Eve and they all turned to the woman. Eve looked down at Rooney as she slept, caressing her forehead with her thump.
"Wes", she whispered looking at Rooney's face and Whale nodded turning to the nurses nodding letting them write the name down. "Wes Edmund Swan-Mills", Eve whispered again and Edmund turned to his sister with wide eyes and Eve smiled at him before turning to doctor Whale.
"Can I hold him?", she asked and doctor Whale hesitated, obviously not wanting to risk the baby's life, but he knew he would have wanted the same if he was in the same situation.
"Of course. Please sit"
Eve nodded and turned to Rooney, kissing her cheek softly before sitting down in the chair next to the bed. Whale drove the incubator over to the chair and opened it, gently taking the baby out of it, placing him gently in Eve's arms, the wires still attached to him. Eve felt her heart stop as she held her small son in her arms for the first time, her love increasing every second and she knew she was instantly in love with her little son.
"Hi baby. I'm so happy to finally meet you. I love you so much", she whispered before kissing Wes' head gently. "Let's both pray mommy is gonna make it, yeah?"
Emma and Regina smiled at the sight of their grandson and walked closer looking at him. "He's beautiful", Regina whispered squatting down to get a better look at him and Eve smiled nodding.
"That he is", she whispered looking at the small boy as he opened his mouth slowly, obviously trying to find some food and Eve chuckled shaking her head.
"I'm sorry baby, but I'm not the right mom for that", she said making all of them chuckle. A cry disturbed the gentle atmosphere and they all turned to see Desmond crying out in Crevan's arms. Regina sighed and walked over to her son, taking her youngest into her arms.
"I'll go feet him", she said gently looking at her wife and Emma smiled nodding, watching as her wife left the room.
"Did the bullet affect him?", Eve asked turning to Whale and the man hesitated looking down and Eve could see it. After a few seconds the man sighed deep and walked closer to her squatting down in front of her.
He brought his hands to the baby gently turning him around as he laid in his mother's arms laying him on his stomach. Eve gasped as she saw the long red scar across his little back and felt her heart break into thousands of pieces.
"Your son was very lucky to survive the gunshot. As you can see it just went past him, cutting his back. You are all very lucky people miss Rothlo. Your little family is a bunch of survivors"
Comfortable silence filled the room as Eve sat in the chair next to her love's bed while looking at their son in the incubator. He was now a day old and he was just so small and Eve was so relieved to see him alive. She could see his small chest rising in steady breaths and she had never felt more pride inside her.
She turned to look at Rooney who was still unconscious. Whale had told her she could be waking up any time, but he also warned it was a possibility it could take longer than they hoped for. Eve sighed and stood from her seat and leaned over her girlfriend, kissing her forehead softly.
"Wake up soon baby. Our son would like to meet you. And I'm pretty sure you would like to meet him too", she whispered and turned her head to look at their sleeping son.
"He's so beautiful sweetheart. Just like you", she whispered against the girl's ear before pressing a light peck on her head. She sat back down and turned back to their son, watching him as he slept. After a few minutes she heard her phone vibrate and she turned to her phone on the night stand next to the bed only to stop when she met Rooney's eyes. "Rooney?"
The girl sighed blinking her eyes slowly and Eve stood from the bed getting closer to her girlfriend. "I'm here baby, it's okay, you're safe", she whispered caressing Rooney's forehead gently and the girl sighed taking deep breaths. She opened her eyes and looked at Eve before turning to see a baby inside a incubator. Her eyes widened and Eve smiled wide at the sight.
"That's him baby. That's our little Wes", Eve whispered and Rooney felt tears in her eyes, one of them already falling.
"He's beautiful", Rooney whispered and Eve smiled nodding. "He's so little", the girl continued and once again Eve nodded, a huge smile on her face. "Can I hold him?"
Eve turned to the girl and sighed shaking her head. "Not without a doctor in the room. Your family's gonna be here in an hour or so. Can you hold out until then?", she asked and Rooney sighed but nodded in understanding. She looked into Eve's brown eyes and brought her hands to the woman's jaw, caressing it gently.
"I love you", she whispered and Eve smiled and leaned down, letting their lips meet in a soft kiss before pulling back again.
"I love you too", she whispered back and Rooney brought the woman back down kissing her deeper and Eve didn't object, having missed Rooney deeply. After a few moments Rooney pulled back and let their foreheads touch.
"What did you do?", Rooney gently asked and Eve sighed.
"I cheated on her", she whispered and Rooney frowned turning back fully to look into Eve's eyes. She was about to ask who it was but by the look in Eve's eyes, she already knew who it was.
"Annalise", she whispered and Eve sighed looking away.
"Annalise and I have a past", she defended and Rooney sighed shaking her head.
"You don't have to explain yourself. If you and I broke up and I had another girlfriend, I would cheat any time if it meant having you in my arms, feeling your love for me again", she whispered and Eve sighed smiling wide.
"I'd do the same"
"Didn't need to tell me that. Once a cheater always a cheater right?, Rooney said raising her eyebrows and Eve sighed shrugging.
"I deserved that"
Rooney chuckled shaking her head pulling Eve back down for a kiss, only to stop their lips inches apart. "You cheat on me, I'll make sure you'll never cheat again", she warned the woman and Eve looked into Rooney's eyes, the girl knowing how much it turned Eve on to see her angry and fierce and in control.
"Got it", she said and Rooney smiled kissing her softly. Eve smiled and kissed her back, knowing she would never cheat on Rooney. That would just be complete suicide. She would never be able to do it. Not even with Annalise. They pulled back from the kiss and Eve kissed the girl's forehead.
"Don't worry. I know you'll never do it", Rooney whispered and Eve smiled at her shaking her head.
"I would never. I love you too much", she said and Rooney nodded in acceptance.
"I know. That would just be complete suicide for you. You have Wes now as well. You have two hungry eaters to take care of", she said and Eve chuckled nodding.
"You know me so well", she said and Rooney smiled nodding.
"Yeah. But you know me very good as well. Last time I remember, it actually saved my life"
Eve smiled and nodded leaning down to kiss the girl softly. "Of course. You hate chocolate milkshake", she said and Rooney chuckled and pulled the woman down for another kiss, letting it immediately becoming deeper and more passionate and Eve could already feel the lust in the kiss.
"Wow wow, straight people coming in", a voice suddenly said and the couple pulled back from the heated kiss, and Rooney turned to see her siblings walking in, while Eve lingered her lips against Rooney's temple. Rooney smiled and turned to Eve kissing her one last time before turning to her siblings fully.
"I thought you said an hour?", Eve asked turning to Crevan and the boy nodded.
"I did, but we didn't have anything else to do, so we decided to just come here", he explained and Eve sighed and nodded turning to Emmett who smiled up at her. Eve smiled back and squatted down, hugging the boy tight.
"Hey guys", Rooney whispered to her sister and Violet smiled and walked over to her sister, taking her hand.
"How are you feeling?", she asked gently and Rooney groaned out.
"Like I've just been shot", she said and Violet sighed her smile fading a little. "It's okay Vi. I'm alive. We both are", she assured her sister turning to her son, seeing Crevan, Eve Emmett standing by the incubator looking down at Wes.
"Where're moms?", Rooney asked turning back to Violet and the girl nodded towards the door.
"They're standing in the waiting room, talking with Whale. They'll be here in a sec", she said and Rooney sighed in relief, needing to see her mothers. And sure enough a minute later the two mothers walked in and smiled wide as they saw their daughter awake in the bed.
"Rooney", Emma whispered walking over to the bed and Rooney turned to see her mother walking towards her, immediately bringing her arms out.
"Ma"
Emma smiled wide, bringing her arms around her daughter hugging her tight. Rooney felt her heart relax at the comfort she felt from her mother's love and turned to see her other mother standing on the other side of the bed. She smiled and brought her other arm out for Regina to come closer and the mother immediately did so, hugging her daughter tight as well.
"We love you so much sweetie. Thank god you're okay", Emma whispered and Rooney nodded against her blonde mother's shoulder.
"Wes is beautiful sweetheart. You've done such a great job with him", Regina said and Rooney let her tears fall, crying against her mother's shoulder and the two mothers let their daughter get her feelings out.
