"Will you two boys stop freaking out? Geez. I was expecting this from Morgan, because he's half Robin. But Priam, I didn't know you would be just as bad!"

I ignored Cordelia and looked over to see that Morgan was still pacing furiously the boy looking at me anxiously every once in a while. He was going to leave a hole in the carpet if he wasn't careful.

"I don't know what you mean." I bit back at the rider.

She gave me an unamused look and pointed at my foot. I looked down and noticed that I had been the culprit of that annoying tapping sound for the past hour.

I stopped my foot and watched as my leg started bouncing.

Gaius entered the tent his arms full of snacks and sweets.

"Man who died?" I heard Morgan give a frightened sound as I glared at the ginger.

"Nice going, sugar maniac." I looked over at Severa who was sitting beside Nah. The pigtailed girl was accompanied by Indigo who seemed nervous as well being seated between the two girls.

"Right, not appropriate." Gaius slinked into the tent and dropped the snacks onto the table.

"I knew that labor took this long but is it really supposed to be seven hours?" Morgan gave a frantic look to me. I shrugged not knowing. All the information I knew was facts I had collected from every midwife in the area of fifty miles along with the five hour talk I had with Libra on the matter, not to mention the three hour talks I had with both Maribelle and Olivia.

"I mean according to the pregnancy books I read it's technically supposed to be-" I tuned out Morgan's nervous rambling as he spoke in an extremely fast incoherent string of words.

The one thing I was sure of though, was that I was nervous as hell.

Not to mention, poor Morgan looked like he was about to pass out.

Everyone froze as I heard an electrifying scream.

Robin.

I felt my hair stand on end and my muscled instinctively tense up at the horrible sound. Morgan froze his hands pulling at his messy hair.

"I'm going to be sick." Morgan groaned and sat next to Nah the dragon girl rubbing his back while Inigo tried to distract Morgan.

"Just relax, your mom is very strong Morgan." Nah shot a nervous look over to where the delivery room was the girl looking slightly uncertain.

"Hey! Did we miss it!?" I looked over to find Cherche erupt into the tent the dragon rider dragging her son with her along with his baby form. The grown boy having his arms crossed and his expression completely unamused. His mask still covered most of his face.

Gaius went up to his wife and pecked her on the lips. "Nope, by this point Morgan isn't going to be born until June." He picked up the baby Gerome and started making faces at the little dragon rider.

The grown Morgan let out a frantic noise as he grabbed at his hair. "I owe mother for putting her through this. A card on mother's day is not going to cut it from now on."

"Why did you bring me here?" The dark rider asked his expression bored as he stood next to Morgan.

"Oh stop with the whole tough guy act Minerva tells me how you scratch her belly and decorate her saddle whenever you get a new one." Nah bit back.

The orange haired rider instantly blushed as Inigo started upright laughing.

I watched amused as Gerome grumpily replied. "N-no I don't! That's ridicules!"

I smiled at how he sulked a blush still on his face as Morgan smiled a little at the reaction.

"Don't worry Gerome, I like to pamper menervykins as well." Gaius egged the thief bouncing with the small infant Gerome. I noticed how Morgan seemed a little less tense the atmosphere not so heavy.

I on the other hand…

I felt a hand touch my shoulder as Gaius asked. "How are you doing? I know this has to be hard for you." I looked over at the grown Morgan and then looked at the door that connected to the room where my wife was giving birth.

I was in absolute panic actually. I wanted to see for myself how Robin was, I wanted to be there by her side. Not out here just waiting. Not to mention, I was concerned if I would be the father that both of these Morgan's deserved. I wasn't especially good with kids like Robin was or Lon'qu. Anxiety sparked in my chest as I felt my lungs feel tight. I wasn't ready yet.

I had no clue how to be a good father.

"I'm fine, I just want Robin to get out of this safely."I had too much anxious energy and I didn't need to burden others with my doubts.

I stared intently at the door wishing it would open. Some news. Anything.

It seemed like the gods had heard my plea as the familiar pink haired dancer emerged. I rushed over to her

"How is she? How's Morgan?" The girl smiled up at me as everyone else waited.

"Mom's doing fine, baby is fine. She's almost done, she's about ready to start pushing. She's been asking for you, but I can't' let you in. We have had far too many husbands faint on us."

She was asking for me though, I wasn't nearly as weak spined as other men.

Olivia shot me an apologetic look and smiled. "I know you're anxious. You have nothing to worry about Priam. Just hang in there for an hour or two."

She shot me a shy look and closed the curtain.

I ran both hands through my hair as I sat next to Morgan. The two of us mirroring each other as we both rested our elbows on our knees.

I might take up the habit of pacing at this point.

"SON OF A-"Robin shouted. I looked towards the tent as she let off with a pained scream.

I glanced over at Gaius who had his hands over baby Gerome's ears. The sugar thief seeming to have anticipated my wife's rare cussing.

Morgan looked ashen as he stared at the floor.

"I'm the worst."

Nah shot him a hopeful look as she rubbed his back and assured. "Trust me, you are not the worst. If anyone here is, it's Inigo."

"I heard that." Indigo piped the man slightly offended.

"You were supposed to." Nah shot back Severa looking like her favorite drama had just dropped into her lap.

I sighed and left the tent my lungs filling with crisp spring air. I paced a little back and forth my head a mess of chaos.

"How long has she been at it?"

I turned towards the voice, Chrom smiling at me. I relaxed a little and emotionlessly stated. "About seven hours. About two to three more to go."

He winced slightly and leaned next to me the exalt looking tired as he looked towards where Robin was. "How are you doing?"

I licked my lips and letting out a defeated sigh I sat down my back resting on the fence. "I don't know."

Chrom chuckled and leaned on the fence the two of us facing the sunset.

"Yeah that's how I felt with Lucina. I kept thinking. There's no way I can do this, but, man Priam." I glanced up at him as his expression was one of pure wonder.

"Holding her in my arms for the first time. It all went away. And you know no matter how many parenting books and advice you get. You still never truly know what you're doing. At least that's how I feel most of the time." He chuckled lightly scratching the back of his head.

I hummed in response.

"Look Priam, I know you are nervous. But no matter what you will be an amazing father and Morgan will always love you."

I looked the exalt in the eyes, that man seeming to be completely sincere. "Also, you literally have an army to help you along the way." He smiled as I chuckled slightly.

"You also have Robin." I felt my heart ease a little just at the thought of her. He had a point. The shepherds were my family now along with countless others.

All the people that I met and trained, fought side by side, the friends that I had made, and the bonds that had been forged. The love of my life that I met and the grown son that had become my best friend.

"Thank you Chrom." He nodded in response as the two of us sat in silence.

I looked over to see the tent flap opening, Oliva looked around for a moment and then her gaze landed on me. "Oh! Priam!"

I instantly stood and made my way over to Olivia. She gave me a shy look and stuttered. "R-robin, really wants you with her. S-she's really insisting. So I'm deciding to break the rules." She seemed more determined about the last part.

I felt slight relief as the two of us passed through the waiting room full of friends and family and she led me to where Robin was.

Oh gods that a lot of blood.

I swallowed the dread in my stomach as I looked at my wife's face. Her hair had been put in a bun at some point her messy white hair seeming to get everywhere. Sweat beaded her forehead and a pained expression was pinned to her face. I felt my own insecurities diminish as the only thing that came to my head: Robin.

I instantly felt my body move on its own as I went up and held tight to her hand. I kissed her forehead as she squeezed my hand the girl panting from pain.

She opened her gorgeous purple eyes and looked up at me the girl seeming relived. "They let you in. thank Naga." She cried the girl gripping my hand more than humanly possible.

"Robin breathe." I gently brushed some of her hair out of her face as she shot me an exhausted look tears streaming down her face.

"I didn't want to do this alone. You're the only family I have. " She grunted the girl keeping her eyes on me.

I felt my heart hurt for her. Why did I let her do this alone so far?

"Robin next contraction should be in about ten seconds. Priam make sure that's your non-dominant hand." I glanced down at my left hand unsure why Olivia would say that.

Robin nodded and sat up the girl shooting me a quick. "Sorry in advance."

"wha-"

"MOTHER F-" I lifted my eyebrows in surprise. The woman gritting her teeth as I felt the powerful girl put all her strength into crushing my hand.

I winced as my hand screamed in pain. I bit my lip to distract as she started panting. Her whole body was tense each muscle being used at the moment.

"PRIAM YOU ABSOLUTE JERK!"

I shot her a confused look the girl simply groaning in pain and shooting me a deadly look.

"What could I have possibly done-"

"You did this to me." She glanced at her stomach.

"My apologies?" I winced as she gripped my hand harder the girl whimpering a little.

"Fine, you're forgiven, for now." She panted the girl biting her lip as her body suddenly relaxed.

"Olivia, they are getting shorter and more frequent." Robin heaved the girl looking like she was about to pass out the girl roughly dropping back into the bed.

She laid back down the girl breathing heavy and hard as I lightly traced my fingers around her knuckles. I kissed her hand and teasingly I said. "I owe you a date after this."

She smiled and chuckled. "You owe me one heck of a date then, Master Priam."

I blushed at the title as she simply smiled in amusement at my expression. I rolled my eyes and pushed hair out her face.

"Really, now you tease me on that?" I laughed at how ludicrous her timing was. I looked at the messy bun her ringlet hair not even slightly contained.

I watched as her expression became pained again. I prepared myself as she gripped my hand like a vice. The girl screaming profanities and shouting at the top of her lungs. She gripped my hand like it was her life line. I watched as the contraction passed this time leaving a very shook up Robin.

She released my hand slightly and looked over at me.

"Priam I'm not sure I can do this. I can't do this. It's too much. It hurts so much." She shook her head tears running down her face. Swirls of magic floated around her, I assumed she was losing control of her magic abilities. I held her cheek and looked her dead in the eye.

"Don't say that, you can do this. You are the woman I love. And last I checked my wife does not quit."

He seemed surprised by my tone as I shot her a smile. I watched as the doubt left her face leaving my determined wife.

"That's my girl."

She gripped my hand my wife looking so tired.

"Robin, we are going to start pushing now." Olivia stated.

I kept my focus on my wife as she nodded. I felt my mouth run dry as she clutched my hand again and like clockwork she sat up and took a deep breath.

"Okay."

Time seemed to blur a little as Robin faced contraction after contraction the girl braving the entire ordeal with a determination like nothing else. It felt like days had gone by, seeing her in such intense pain made my heart ache as I kept my hold on her hand.

"Okay Robin, one more time."

Tears went down the warrior's face as she wiped them away and sat up. "Breathe, you got this love." I assured her. She took deep breaths as she waited a few pure seconds of silence followed.

Then the contraction hit. A pained sound escaped her throat as she pushed. I kept my eyes focused on my wife as the midwives did their job Oliva holding Robin's other hand.

She let out a feral scream, and then I heard a baby crying.

I felt the world around me slow down. I took my eyes off of my wife and looked over to find a baby in Olivia's arms. I kept my eyes glued to my son as Maribelle checked him. Robin couldn't take her eyes off of him as he was being cleaned and examined. I gripped Robin's hand as we both just seemed to freeze.

We were parents... Again.

Everything seemed to be dulled. I watched as Oliva looked over at the two of us and smiling she walked over with a swaddled Morgan. Robin instantly reached for him. I watched awed as baby Morgan instantly took to Robin the boy cooing now. She placed him on her chest, the girl simply enamored by the little life in her possession.

I bent down to Robin's eye level and looked at the tiny infant. Little tuffs of blue hair grew on his head already. Robin's tattoo on her hand mirrored his, the thing nearly identical, along with a half breed mark as well. His eyes were still shut tight but his hands drifted to hold onto something. I gently placed my finger in his hand and watched as he held tight to it.

And that's when I knew.

No matter what happened, Robin and I would be fine.

I chuckled and sniffed slightly my emotions seeming to run all over the place slightly.

"Hey Morgan." Robin cooed my wife simply adoring the tiny baby in her arms already.

"Hey little man." I softly whispered as well.

I chuckled slightly and placed my head in the crook of Robin's neck as I laughed. "I'm the happiest dad ever. I can't believe we become parents. Again. " I heard her start laughing as well the two of us looking down at the tiny infant Morgan I quickly kissed Robin's cheek.

I heard footsteps my head instantly turning as I saw our grown Morgan looking at the two of us. I smiled and waved him over. The boy seemed to not believe what he was seeing as he joined the boy looking awed at himself.

"Oh man, I really was a cute baby." Robin snorted as she chuckled and started rocking the infant Morgan while Morgan just looked in awe.

The grown Morgan gently took the baby's hand and chuckling he whispered. "Hey, mini me."

Robin reached out to the grown Morgan taking his cheek as he just smiled at her and bear hugged her the woman chuckling slightly as she held her two boys.

"You're perfect Morgan. Both of you are."
