And Baby Makes Three?

It was only 7 in the morning and Regina had had a very restless sleep, but something else was wrong. "Shit!" she exclaimed. Her back and pelvis were throbbing and what was she sitting in? Oh, her water had broken. "Shit!" she said again.

She slowly got up from her bed. She wanted to quickly rinse off her lower half, dress, and then get to the hospital. After quite literally just rinsing off the water and blood she had been sitting in, she slowly and painfully made it to her dresser. Even though she knew they'd be coming off, she dressed in her most modest panties, black silk with lace detail, cheekies. She snapped on a matching bra, finally comfortable in one and found the comfiest pants and shirt she could, the latter being a button down of David's.

Okay she could do this, she thought, as she took a few deep breaths. Her magic surrounded her, and when it cleared she could hear the sounds of the emergency room. She was suddenly hit with another contraction that almost brought her stumbling to her knees.

"Whaleeeeeeeee!" she bellowed, although it still being pretty early, it was hard to miss her.

"Jesus Regina, you rang?!" Whale yelled, down the hall, before entering the room and laying eyes on her. "Shit!"

"Yes, dear that seems to be the word of the day."

"Shit, get her on a stretcher and into a room, NOW!" he practically screamed. "I want to see monitors on mother and baby when I come in, in 2 minutes!"

Nurses were helping Regina onto the stretcher when she gasped over all the commotion and said "Twins, two. Both with magic."

Whale just laughed. "Of course you would! I need to get some supplies, 2 minutes!"

He took off running for a storage room as Regina was wheeled into a private room.

Everything was happening so quickly, nurses were helping her out of her clothes and into some hideous gown, as another contraction ripped through her body. Somebody placed some kind of tape, monitor on her belly, while someone else did the same on her own chest. Then they were wrapping a cuff around her left arm, she recognized that, it was for blood pressure. As she lay back in pain, another nurse wrapped a tourniquet above her right elbow.

Through very clenched teeth Regina asked "What's that for, kind of late for a pregnancy test!"

The nurse couldn't help but smile, "True, but we will monitor other blood levels, and this will help keep you hydrated, and allow us to give you any medications you may need. However if you want an epidural, that's a different needle, that goes in your back," the nurse said, just as she was finishing taking the blood tests, and switching it over to the IV, saline solution for now.

Most of the nurses had left by now and Regina was really starting to panic. She couldn't do this! She couldn't do this alone with one baby, but two?! No, no she couldn't do it. Suddenly her stomach glowed pink again, she used the buttons on the bed so she could sit up. Not sure what was happening, until 2 pinks clouds appeared before her. Thoroughly confused, the smoke disappeared and left a lot of noise. It would seem David and Emma had been eating cereal, and judging by the height they fell, they'd been at the breakfast bar, before both promptly fell to their asses, bowls crashing down with them.

"Ouch!" "Fuck!" "Language!" Regina said to the blond.

"Regina! What the hell are we doing here?!"

"I actually don't know. I didn't summon you here," she managed to get out, while grimacing and gripping the side rails for dear life.

"Labour, you-you're in, in labour!" David replied.

"Yes dear, it would appear that way. So sorry to interrupt your, I'm sure, nutritious breakfast, but again it wasn't me who brought you here. It seems the twins wanted you both here."

Regina sank back in her bed, absolutely exhausted already.

David, having got up off the floor, put his dish in the sink, and washed his hands thoroughly, smiled as he came over to Regina. "Told you, I'm the baby whisperer."

Emma took her turn cleaning up too. She still felt a bit awkward looking at Regina, after the sex dream she had the previous night. "Uh ya, don't know why the babies get so riled by my voice, but if they want me here, I'm here, anything you need."

At that moment Whale rushed in with multiple machines and supplies, as well as a couple nurses. Looking up he took a startled step back, he hadn't been expecting anyone but Regina. "Oh, uh wow you two got here damn fast!"

"Apparently the babies requested, and by requested I mean used their own powers to transport Emma and I, here," David answered, but he couldn't keep the smile off his face. He looked over at Regina grimacing, and grabbed her hand, to squeeze his, instead of the bed railings.

"Mayor, just how much magic do you think we're talking here?"

"They're freakishly strong for their age, but they seem to have quite the control when they want or think I need something."

Whale shook his head, there was nothing he could do to prepare for that now. "Okay first things first, I need to see how dilated you are, however if it makes you more comfortable, if I'm the father, than I've already seen this…"

He didn't get to finish his sentence before three different people were cussing him off. "Okay, okay, so not the patient for jokes. Gotcha!"

Emma murmured to her father, "Seriously is there no other doctor that could do this?" As she watched Whale, like a hawk, roll up Regina's gown, while trying to use a blanket to cover her legs, and dignity.

"Sadly no Miss Swan, the honour is all mine. However you two don't need to be in the room."

"Look you little.." Emma started to stomp towards Whale when David grabbed her with his free arm.

"They're staying Victor. However I'd prefer it if you would both stay above my shoulders, at all times!" Regina snarled at all three.

Emma fumbled into place, and tried to place a comforting hand on Regina's shoulder. God she knew she shouldn't be thinking about it especially now, but even in the throes of labour, Regina Mills looked beyond beautiful. She could feel her warm skin underneath her own, just buzzing, she had felt this before and had concluded it was their magic interacting together.

Her attention was drawn back to Whale when he said "Okay deep breath Regina, this might be a bit cold, or you might feel some pain or pressure."

Whale took a look and immediately knew they needed a new plan. "Shit!"

Three "Whats!" hit him when he emerged from between Regina's legs.

"Okay it's not a bad thing, you're just much further along in your labour. There's not a lot of time, so unfortunately that means no epidural, your going to be roughing it, however you and I both know from experience you can handle a lot of pain."

He paused for a moment to think. "Okay, here's what's going to happen, I want to keep you as far away from the other patients and rooms heavily equipped with oxygen tanks, encase the twins magic can't be controlled. So where we are now is actually great. Next David, you're gonna climb on top of the stretcher and get behind Regina. She's gonna need someone strong to brace against and hold on to. We've got maybe half an hour here people so let's move, I'm going to go gown up with my nurses and grab any extra supplies we may need." With that Whale rushed out of the room, leaving the other two flabbergasted and one in a lot of pain, as two humans pushed their way out of her body.

"Emma I need you to do something for me please?"

"Anything Regina," she said while stroking her shoulder.

"I know he doesn't know who I am right now, but I need Henry here for this. He doesn't know it's his siblings right now, but he will one day, and I want him to have the memories that he was here the day they were born," Regina replied tearfully.

Emma hesitated, "Regina…it's not like I can just go poof and get him, I'd have to poof back and then drive over here…"

"Please Emma, you can tell Henry Regina's an old close friend, that you really want to be here for her, if you leave now you can definitely make it back," David interrupted Emma's previous excuse.

"Fine! Fine, your lucky we were dressed when your children summoned us, you know."

Regina couldn't help but crack a smile as Emma disappeared in her signature light smoke, thank gods she'd done nothing but practice since being back near Storybrooke. It made keeping tabs on different places all around town much easier once she could poof from place to place. However it was basically the only thing she had learned. Anything more she was hoping Regina would teach her.

"Why do you think the twins didn't bring Henry here too?" David inquired.

"Probably because they don't know him. They've never seen or heard him. They may know I have a connection to him, but without more physical details, they wouldn't have been able to transport him. Which I guess is a good thing, how would we explain that right now."

"Smart, gods your children are going to be the worst!"

"Excuse me?!"

"Smart and beautiful, lethal combination your Majesty," David smiles at her as he traced the side of her jaw with his finger.

Just then the door banged open again as Regina felt another contraction hit.

"David on the bed, come on let's go! If you don't want to do it, I can find 20 guys that wouldn't mind the mayor rubbing up against them for a few hours!"

"Watch it Whale! No more jokes like that!" David threatened.

He turned to look at Regina as Whale and the nurses set everything up in the room. He rubbed the back of his neck and said "Uh are you okay with this, if I just-"

"Yes damnit, just do it David!" Regina yelled, she was already feeling so weak and tired.

One nurse was adding more to her IV bag, at the curious look she said "Some of your electrolytes were a bit low, so we're gonna keep you topped up. Now this," she indicated a needle she was about to push through the IV, "Is for pain, and before you ask, nope won't hurt your babies in the least!"

After making sure her IV was safe, David pressed Regina as far forward as she could handle, and than hopped up on the bed behind her. His legs came up beside her hips, he was just in some thin sweatpants, and her body and back came to lay directly against his stomach and chest. Her head fit perfectly beneath his. He gave her both his arms, which she immediately wrapped around herself as she rocked in place. Maybe Whale was slightly right, David thought, but he'd bet a lot more than 20 men or women would like to be in his place.

Regina's legs were placed back in the stirrups. After just a quick glance Whale said "Okay, 5 minutes maybe, it's go time, everything in place?" He started glancing around and barking last minute orders. Another nurse poked her head in, "Emma and Henry are here.."

"No one else in here, I'm sorry Regina, I don't want to take anymore chances, they can come in as soon as we cut the cords I promise."

Regina whimpered, but nodded her head in agreement. David just gripped her forehead. Gods even sweating she smelled fantastic. And she was so strong, he couldn't imagine the pain she was in, and she really hadn't even complained yet. It made him wonder though if this wasn't her worst experience than what true horrors had she gone through in her past. But now wasn't the time for those thoughts. She was squirming in his lap and her hand grabbed his arm that had his hand on her forehead.

Whale got into position and pulled the covers back. Looking down, he hiked up her gown, there was already a head. "Crap! Okay somebody's anxious to come out, baby a) is crowning, Regina I need you to push…now, bare down, hard as you can!"

The lights in the room started to flicker, as Regina pushed against David as hard as she could "It's not me," she gritted out!

Whale exhaled, as a nurse turned on his head lamp. The sound of a squawking baby filled all their ears. "It's a mischievous little boy! Nurse!" A nurse took the baby from Whale to clean him up, take a quick finger prick blood sample, and attach a matching band so the samples wouldn't get mixed up, before handing him over to David and Regina. Regina was a bit busy trying to birth her daughter, so she glanced back to David, the nurse smiled at David and said "Would you like to do the honours?" indicating the cord.

"Oh, oh my gosh, yes!" David carefully snipped the cord before the nurse took the baby away again, to clean him up a bit more thoroughly, check his stats, and wrap him in a blanket. Meanwhile David got back to supporting Regina.

"Okay she's being a bit stubborn like her mother, but I can see her head Regina, she's got a mess of black curls, but I need you to push again… Now!"

Regina and David had smiled at the dark hair comment, but then Regina was immediately pushing again. Then they could hear the soft cries of a girl.

"Heads out, shoulders out, come on Regina just one more big push!" Whale yelled.

Regina bared down. She was squeezing David's hands, so hard he was pretty sure she'd fractured a few fingers, when suddenly the ground and walls started shaking.

"Shit, shit, not cool Princess, cut that out! Ouch!" Whale exclaimed, after it seemed the little girl sent a tiny electric zap to his finger, when he asked her to stop shaking the ground. "Regina you need to push harder if she's gonna stop this earthquake!"

So Regina tried, and David was the rock she needed against her in that moment. With an undignified huff, the baby slipped free into Whale's hands, and the shaking stopped. A nurse immediately took her to go through the same steps as her brother, but when Whale took a beat to breathe, he noticed the cracks along the walls, ceiling and floor. Shaking his head, one of the nurses said "And you thought light flickers were bad eh?"

David was practically holding Regina up against him at his point. She was hurting so badly, she felt like she was slipping in and out of consciousness, but then suddenly two bundles were placed upon her chest, and all those feelings went away.

Although before she could barely keep her eyes open, now she didn't know if she'd ever close them.

David was still wrapped around her, and she was beyond thankful because he was the one holding them all up now. "My gods Regina, they're.." he felt it then, a tear was rolling down his cheek. She turned and caught it with her finger, but smiled at him before looking back down at her babies. They didn't look anything alike except one feature was identical.

The boy had wisps of blond hair and bright blue eyes. He had a plump lower lip and adorable nose. Her daughter nudged her head against her hand and opened her eyes again. Whereas her son seemed to have light hair, and features, there was no mistaking who the mother was of this child. She was the spitting image of herself as a baby. Dark hair, long lashes, a button nose, and full lips. The only discrepancy was those eyes. Although they were definitely her shape, they weren't her colour. They, again were this piercing ocean blue. David was admiring them just as closely. They were unknowingly taking turns touching the newborns features. David was basking in this moment when, "Knock Knock, you got some quick visitors!"

Emma entered, with Henry right behind. He smiled politely at the woman in the bed, and although with a curious glance said "Hi," to David.

Emma though couldn't focus on anything but Regina and what she was holding in her and David's arms.

"Oh, uh Henry, this is my good friend Regina, the mayor, I told you about. Regina this is my son Henry," Emma said as she took step after step to get closer to Regina.

Regina was crying now. Seeing her son in front of her, he'd grown so much over the past year! He was practically a man, and it killed her inside that she had missed a whole year of his life. Actually she was feeling a lot of physical pain inside.

"It's very nice to finally meet you, and congratulations!" Henry said as he too made his way over, and sat cautiously in a chair on the side of the bed, as Whale and the nurses were still working around.

After having gotten a closer look Emma exhaled "Regina I- I mean my gods.. they're beautiful! Jesus you make ridiculously pretty babies!"

Regina tried to smile at the compliment but she couldn't. Something felt…wrong. It still hurt, too much, she was feeling more pain and weaker. "Uhhhhhh!" she cried out, happy David was able to fully support the babies. "Whale, something's- uh not… Whale!"

Whale jumped back between her legs, he was just preparing to remove the placenta. A couple nurses gently removed the babies from Regina and David's arms. "Regina, what's happening, tell me how you're feeling," glancing down he couldn't see what would be causing her this distress, but her readings were all spiking again, indicating contractions. Some woman contracted when the placenta was removed but this was way more than that. Regina couldn't seem to talk, she was too busy crushing David, and clamping her jaw.

"Grab that machine now!" Whale barked. He pulled out the ultrasound wand and turned the computer on and into place.

"What's happening?" Henry asked.

"If you wanna stay in this room than everybody but Regina and baby a) and baby b), shut the hell up for a few minutes!" Whale said as he guided the wand over her uterus and stomach.

"Oh my Gods! How the hell did we miss this?!" This is why they have ultrasounds damnit! He could've checked manually but he didn't want to traumatize Regina even more by shoving his hand up her uterus.

"What's going on?" David all but cried.

Whale put Regina back into the stirrups. "Okay Regina you listening to me?" When he was sure she was, he put on the nicest face he could muster and said, "Okay two down, one to go."

And suddenly nobody was speaking, even the babies were quiet. It was rare, but at Storybrooke hospital that morning, you could've heard a pin drop.
