Here is the 16th chapter for you awesome readers and followers.
So without further ado here is the next chapter.
Annabelle was scared like she was never scared before. They had built a stretcher for Mathias who was clutching his stomach for dear life all the while whimpering "This hurts so much. Where is Ber? OWWWWWW!" This broke Annabelle's heart and she couldn't stop tears escaping and cascading down her beautiful face.
'Please find him Nick. You just have to.' she thought desperately. Her thoughts where interrupted by an especially loud agonising cry from Mathias who yelled "STOP P-PLEASE. I C-C-CAN FEEL THE B-B-BABY'S HEAD. P-PLEASE YOU H-H-HAVE TO S-S-STOP. AHHHHHHHH!"
"Ok someone hand me over my red bag pack. There's the stuff we will need for Mathias and his baby." said Annabelle taking charge.
She went over to Mathias and took off his trousers and boxers in one swift movement and saw the top of the baby's head already crowning.
"Could someone position themselves behind Mathias and rub his back while I check the progress of the baby?" "I'll do it." offered Tino going behind the labouring mother-to-be.
"Mathias. I want you to gather up all your strength and push no matter what. Ok?" Annabelle asked turning to Mathias who looked scared as hell and shivering due to the the winter cold and not having any trousers on.
"I-I'll t-tr-try." Mathias stuttered and bore down pushing with all his might. As the head emerged Mathias felt a horrible burning sensation in his lower regions and he cried out "Oh shiiiiiiiiiiiittt. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
With a gush of fluids and blood the baby's head was released. "You're doing an amazing job Mathias. Just a couple more pushes and you'll finally meet your baby." said Annabelle who was close to tears.
Mathias only shook his head weakly and whispered something which Annabelle couldn't understand. "He says he feels like he's going to throw up." said Tino who together with his daughter managed to heave up Mathias just in time for him to throw up violently on the ground.
Once Mathias was done Annabelle offered him something to drink which he gladly excepted before bearing down and giving it his all and giving birth to his baby which Annabelle quickly wrapped up in one of the towels she had brought.
She handed the squirming infant to its mother who checked the gender. "Hello my son. You really are a beauty aren't you." Mathias said barely being able to hold back tears that were starting to stream down his face.
Mathias was so preoccupied with his son that he didn't notice the afterbirth leave his body and fluids gushing down his thighs.
He did however feel the same agonising pain which told him that this ordeal was far from over.
"ANNABELLE. PLEASE COME QUICKLY. THERE'S ANOTHER ONE COMING. OWWWWWW!" he screamed panicking violently.
"Mathias. You have to calm down. All this stress isn't good for the baby." Annabelle said alarmed at the sudden change of situation as she repositioned herself between Mathias legs.
To her astonishment the baby was already half way out of its mothers body so Annabelle quickly put her hands underneath the child to support it as it left the exhausted Mathias body.
Mathias who was too exhausted to even hold out his arms for his baby weakly asked "What gender is my second baby? And is there another one coming?"
Annabelle quickly looked underneath the towel and answered "You have another beautiful son." before going down to Mathias abdomen and checking if there was another child still nestled inside Mathias womb.
Looking up into Mathias panic-stricken eyes she said "There is one last child waiting to be born. I promise that you'll be finished then."
Mathias red and puffy eyes filled with tears and he lay back against Tinos chest and whimpered "Please no more. I can't. I want my Papa Ber. WHERE THE HELL IS MY BERWALD?" Mathias screamed terror and panic evident in his voice.
"Nicholai is looking for him and will him but in the meantime we have to concentrate on your last child which you will give birth to with our help." said Annabelle gesturing to her mother who added "We won't abandon you especially now. We will get through this together." Tino said giving his friends arm a comforting squeeze.
At that moment Mathias let out the most pitiful moan escape his lungs as he started pushing out his last baby. Together with a lot of blood the baby's legs, torso and the shoulders left his extremely weakened body.
Knowing the most difficult part was yet to go through Mathias paused for a couple of contractions before bearing down and giving the longest push he had given so far and shouting to at Annabelle "PLEASE MAKE SURE MY BABY IS OK OR I SWEAR TO GOD."
Being aware of the fact that Mathias was going through living hell right now Annabelle helped support the little female body (having that being the first thing to be checked) and ease out of Mathias who had one look at his little daughter before passing out from complete exahaustion.
At that moment Nicholai came galloping into view with a blood soaked Berwald in his arms. This made Annabelle panic more than before. "We haven't got much time. We hae to get your father to the hospital as quickly as possible or he will die."
Nobody had to be told twice and together the entire group raced toward the town. Throughout the elite trip to the hospital Annabelle never stopped praying for her father. 'We could really use a guardian angle right about now. Mathias just gave birth to triplets and needs my Papa more than anything right now. And the triplets need their father and so do I.'
Will Annabelles wish come true? Will Berwald survive? The next chapter will reveal the truth so stay tuned and review. C :
