What if?
Chapter 12
Emma is coming.
"Right, we have to get her somewhere comfortable." Doc said. Rumplestiltskin magically unlocked the chains that were around Snow's wrist and they fell to the floor with a clink. Charming picked up his wife, bridal style, and they all left the cell.
"Where's the nearest room with a bed?" Grumpy asked as they hurried down the corridors of the castle.
"My old room, I don't know if there is still a bed in there though. It's on the floor above this one, second to the right." Snow said before another contraction hit her and she screamed through the pain.
"Snow, it's going to be all right." Charming soothed.
"She's early." Snow replied.
"I know, but everything is going to be all right. I promise." Charming said.
It took them another ten minutes to find the room, and luckily the bed was still in there. It is a double and has a pile of pillows on it. The dwarfs create a mountain of pillows and pull back the blanket. Charming lays Snow gently in the middle of the bed before sitting next to her and taking her hand in his. "Granny I need you to get me some towels and some warm water please." Doc said and Granny nods before her and Red go and find some towels and water. "Snow, I'm going to see how far dilated you are okay." Doc said. Snow nods and Doc does what he needs to do. "Snow, you're five centimetres dilated okay, five more to go and you can start pushing, all right." Doc said.
Five hours later and Snow is exhausted. "Snow, you are fully dilated. Push on the count of three okay. One. Two. Three. Push." Doc instructed and Snow pushes as hard as she can. "I can see the head, just a few more pushes and your little girl will be here. And again. One. Two. Three. PUSH!" Doc said and Snow pushes again with all of her might. "Good. The head is out. Just breath." Snow does what he said. "And on three. One. Two. Three. Push." She pushes and when she does Emma is born and the sound of her cute wailing fills the air. Snow and Charming are both crying at this point. Doc wraps up the little bundle, after cutting the cord, and gives the baby to Snow. "Here is your beautiful baby girl." Doc said as he placed the bundle in Snow's arms.
"She's so beautiful." Snow said as she looked at her daughter.
"She's perfect. Just like her mother." Charming said before kissing Snow's forehead.
"Guys, maybe we should give the new family some time alone." Granny said, the others nod before leaving the room saying their congratulations as they go.
After that Snow and Charming just look at their newly born daughter, Emma Ruth Swan, in awe. Thinking about the life they can have together and how they won't get to miss eighteen years of her life. They are happy. They are ecstatic. They are a family. They are together.
Hey guys, I know it's a short chapter but I didn't know how to write the birth. The next chapter will be the last. It is going to be an epilogue set about ten years in the future. I hope you liked it. Please review.
