Chapter 13 – The big day!
Lucy had been feeling uncomfortable for almost two days. She hadn't be able to rest and she had been bothering Bixlow who couldn't sleep either. She was in the 30 week; she was so tired that she almost fell slept on her breakfast. And why had she been so restless? She had contractions and she had read about how it was to get used to the pain.
"Are you sure you don't want to go to the doctor?" Levy-chan was visiting her and she told her about her pains "Maybe they're not preparation pains…"
"It has to be preparation pains, there're still six weeks left to the birth date" And Lucy was expecting them to be long and peaceful. "So, don't worry, Levy-chan and tell me how was your date with Gajeel!"
Levy blushed completely when Lucy named Gajeel and started to stutter causing Lucy to laugh hard.
"Shut up! You're so mean!" Levy tried to calm herself "Cana gave me some advice about a restaurant and I took Gajeel there but they don't serve iron so we ended in the park and then, then…"
"You made it with him?"
"No! Of course no! We were there and he was going to kiss me and, and, and…you, know…I kicked in the chin and then we found Romeo and Wendy eating icecream and all was a total mess!"
"Seems like we have a lot of couples in Fairy Tail" Maybe Juvia and Gray ended going out too "And what did you and Gajeel?"
"Gajeel grabbed Romeo and gave him the talk "If you break her heart, I will break your legs", it was sweet…and scaring" Lucy tried to imagine it and it wasn't too difficult because Gajeel seemed to warm up with Fairy Tail members or at least with Wendy and Levy.
"I'm sure it was better that the talk Elfman gave to Fried when he started to date Mira-san or the talk that Laxus gives to Elfman when Evergreen told him that Elfman was being bad with her…" Yep, there wasn't enough manly in the world to face the Strauss brother. "They are idiots"
"Bixlow the first…where is he?" Lucy smiled and shrugged her shoulders, Bixlow had been being a good boy lately. "Are you going to forgive him soon?"
"Of course, it's just that I love to see him begging for forgiveness" Lucy hissed with an especially painful pain "I think that you take me to the hospital, Levy-chan, this is the second contraction in thirty minutes."
Levy didn't panic and began to search Lucy's things, neither she nor Lucy thought about look for Bixlow and tell him that Lucy was going to go to the hospital and when he arrived and saw Lucy wasn't there…he panicked. He searched for Lucy everywhere until near the midnight Natsu got him and told him that Lucy was in the hospital.
"I didn't think in that…" It was his only response. But he had to think in Lucy! She was in the hospital "Is she alright?"
"She had pains and Levy took her to the hospital, she is in labour right now, you idiot!"
Bixlow had heard about women in labour and how they vocabulary changed too much, they insulted their husband and boyfriends and then they was shining and happy. He wondered in which state would be Lucy.
"The kids haven't born yet, so, you're going to find a very angry Lucy…if they let you pass"
Lucy was going to castrate him and he lover his Bixlow junior a lot, so it was better if they don't let him pass. But it wasn't like he couldn't pass, it was that Lucy was kicking her doctor out of her bedroom and the nurses had to take care. Nobody noted he was there and the night pass slowly, Fairy Tail's mage went and came, but he didn't move, waiting for a call or something, he didn't try to talk to nurses or doctors.
"They haven't born yet?" Fried sat in front of him, with a cup ob coffee "It's for you. I supposed that you hadn't slept at all"
"I haven't asked about them…" He accepted Fried's cup and took a sip, he had been there for hours and still he hadn't notice time passing "I'm afraid that I'm going to be castrate when I see Lucy"
"I heard she kicked her doctor, I don't know if she is going to castrate you or kill you" Such a friend… "But you should go and ask someone."
"This is going to be funny for you right?" Fried nodded and Bixlow rolled his eyes. "I want to know about Lucy Heartfilia"
"She is resting, she had a really hard birth, sir, and it's not visiting hours. So, wait on the lobby and at 16.30 you can go to her room in 672." Since rooms were behind her, she could see if he tried to slip.
"I'm her…lover, can we make an exception? Or can I at least see my kids?" The nurse seemed shocked and looked him like he was a new type of animal.
"I'm sorry, but no." Bitch.
"I have to wait until 16.30." Bixlow sat with Fried and looked the clock, half an hour and that bitch nurse didn't let him go to see Lucy? He sighed and closed his eyes.
"Wake up, sir, this is not place to sleep" What? What? A nurse was shaking him and the clock said it was quarter to six "Sir?"
"I'm awake" Bixlow got up and looked around, there wasn't anyone. That Fried bastard left him there! Such a shitty friend he was. He began to walk to Lucy's room. 672. 672. "I have to go."
"Sir!" The nurse got into his way; she was shivering and looking nervously around "Sir, I can't let you pass"
"Why not? It's visiting hours and I want to see a patient" He tried to avoid her but again there she was.
"We don't know who you are, so, you shall not pass"
It has to be a joke. That nurse was kidding him and he was totally astonished since she seemed so serious about not letting him pass.
"I'm Lucy Heartfilia's lover and her children's father and I want to see them so…get the fuck away of my way!"
"Oh, my…Bixlow, you're being rude" Mira chucked behind him, she was with Levy and Wendy "Excuse him, Miss Nora, he is the father and is a bit nervous"
And again, there was the shocked look and he growled while he passed her and walked to Lucy's room. She was alone, looking through the window with a big cradle by her bed side.
"Hello, can I pass?" Lucy looked at him and smile while she nodded, she was so pleased to see him "Mirajane, Levy and Wendy are outside, so, I'm here just a minute"
"Come on…I want to introduce you my triplets" He went by her side and look into the cradle, he normally didn't like children, but they were breathtaking, two boys an a little girl "I haven't named they yet…"
"Laxus, Fried and Evergreen"
"No."
"Oh, come on~"
"Natsu, Gray and Erza? Do you like it?"
"No."
"Neither does me, so we are going to choose together." She thought about it a little more "What do you think of Gabriel and Alexander?"
"I like them. Sophie?"
"Knowledge."
"We can call her Angela."
"I like Sophie" They looked to the three babies, they were beautiful and very similar with very little dark blue hair as their daddy and pale skin "She is going to be gorgeous"
"She is not going to have any boyfriend. Don't try to convince me."
And soon the room was filled with laughs.
