Chapter 21 (Labor)

Several months passed by, Gibby had managed to convince Valerie to tell Hector about her pregnancy. When she did, he wasn't too upset, but he did wish she had told him before. He had a gynecologist that had been paid to come visit Sam, so he did the same for Valerie. Now, Valerie was due any day now. Jeremy didn't actually know she was pregnant, since Hector didn't bother to tell him. When he did find out, he was pissed because it meant Hector was giving her special treatment.

Jeremy walked into Valerie's bedroom and glared angrily at her, she looked up from her bed and frowned. He'd left her alone for the most part, but whenever he came to her, he always looked ready to hurt her. "Hey Jeremy, I'm trying to study for my math final now," Valerie said quietly. Hector decided not to move them around until both Sam and Valerie had their children and Valerie's school year ended. Jeremy narrowed his eyes and kicked Valerie's book out of her hand. "Hey!"

"Why the hell do you always get this special treatment?" Jeremy asked as he grabbed Valerie by the neck and lifted her up. She tried to scream out, but Jeremy was holding her neck too tightly for her to make a sound. He slammed her against the wall as she gripped his arms.

"J-Jeremy please…" Tears came to her eyes as he felt her protruding stomach. He hated her, he hated her unborn child. Why did Hector treat her the way he did? Why did Gibby feel the need to protect her? It wasn't fair. "Jeremy, what are you going to do? Please no…" He was focusing too much on her belly, was he going to try and force her to have a miscarriage this late into her pregnancy?

"This baby is an abomination." Jeremy clenched his fist and Valerie's eyes widened. He was going to punch her, he was going to kill her baby. She couldn't let that happen. She struggled and groaned as Jeremy eyed her belly. "If you think you can just go around having babies, then you've got another thing coming."

"N-No! Leave her alone!" Valerie already knew her baby's gender. During her pregnancy, she'd done so much for this child inside of her. She was in love with this baby before it was even born yet. She wasn't going to let Jeremy do a thing to her.

"So it is a girl. Damn, girls are prominent in your family." Valerie breathed in and closed her eyes. She couldn't call out for Gibby, she couldn't scream. God she wanted him to leave her alone.

"H-Help!"

"Don't bother. Gibby's not even in the house right now…" Valerie screamed as Jeremy hit her in the face. "Shut up!" She screamed and tried to pry his fingers off of her neck. He narrowed his eyes and felt something hit his leg. Valerie's eyes widened and he slowly looked down. Her water just broke. "Oh…shit!" Jeremy released her and quickly ran out of the bedroom. Gibby was out back, so he was the person to contact.

Valerie grunted and made her way over to her bed, she was going into labor. She screamed in pain as Gibby and Hector barged into the room. She had her arms on her bed and her face buried into her pillow, she was biting it and screaming into it. "Valerie!" Gibby called out as he hurried over to her. He helped her up onto the bed and looked over at Hector. "What do we do?" Hector paled and quickly pulled out his phone, he was going to call the gynecologist. He had absolutely no idea how to handle a pregnancy.

"Hey Doc, we got a problem," Hector spoke into the phone when the doctor finally answered. "Valerie's gone into labor." The doctor issued Hector to follow everything she said until she made it to the place. Hector nodded his head and hurried over to Valerie. "Wait, I'm not pulling her pants down!"

"You have to, otherwise you're not getting that baby out," The lady said. Hector moaned as Valerie continued screaming. Gibby rolled his eyes and quickly tore Valerie's pants off, then held her hand as Hector put the phone on speaker. Hector looked over and his face became as white as a sheet. "Okay, am I on speaker?"

"Yes…" Hector placed the phone next to Valerie and looked away, he felt the sweat starting to run down his forehead.

"Valerie, I'm going to ask you to take a few deep breaths, okay?"

"I can't do this!" Valerie screamed. "I can't do it!"

"You're going to be fine," Gibby said as he squeezed her hand. Valerie still wanted Jonah there next to her, but that wasn't allowed. They just had to hope Sam didn't go into labor now, since she was also due pretty damn soon. Gibby knew he had to remain calm, nobody needed to panic.

"Hector, do you think you need to leave the room?" Gibby asked as he looked to the man. Hector seemed like he was about to pass out. Who knew he had a weak stomach?

"No, I'll be all right." Valerie screamed again as she started trying to push the baby out of her. This girl wanted out, screw staying inside of the womb, that wasn't going to work anymore.

In the basement, Sam could hear Valerie's moans and yells. At first, she wondered if they were doing something bad to her, but in hindsight, she understood that Valerie must have started going into labor. She looked down at her belly and frowned, she didn't want to give birth. She was going to have twins. She didn't like having Hector's children, hell she was Hector's child. What the hell possessed him to do this to her? She clenched her teeth and closed her eyes, letting the tears run down.

She was trying to toughen herself up, but it wasn't happening. She lifted her head up and felt her stomach starting to churn. She moaned and bowed her head, her babies were kicking. If she were to go into labor, it wouldn't be early for her. Valerie was late. Sam slowly breathed out and looked at the basement door, it was cracked just enough. The babies kicked again, harder, and Sam grunted in pain. The pain was very sharp. Her eyes widened the pain continued. "No," She whispered. "No!" She lifted her head up and screamed in pain. "Help! Nevel! Jeremy! Anybody!"

Upstairs, Nevel was waiting in the living room, trying to ignore the screams coming from Valerie. He really didn't want to see her give birth, as he felt he'd be insanely disgusted by it. He looked over to see Jeremy pacing the floor, running his hand through his hair. Suddenly they heard Sam's loud bellowing and both of them lifted their heads up. "Oh god," Nevel said quietly. "Please don't tell me…"

"Sam's going into labor too!" Jeremy shouted out. He quickly ran into Valerie's room to alert Hector while Nevel went downstairs to help Sam out. This was a nightmare. They didn't mind Valerie, since Jonah was the father, but Sam. None of them could really wrap their heads around the fact that Hector impregnated his own daughter. "Hector! Hector, Sam's going into labor!"

"What?" Hector shouted out fearfully. The doctor on the phone then instructed Sam to be put in the same room as Valerie was, she had to work with both of them. "Shit, Jeremy go take the bed from Gibby's room and prop it up next to Valerie's." Jeremy nodded and ran out of the room.

Nevel made it to Sam, whose entire body was shaking by now. "Nevel, I'm...oh god!"

"Hold on Sam!" Nevel panicked and began freeing Sam from her chains. She screamed in pain as he started leading her to the stairs. "Are you going to be able to make it upstairs?"

"I don't care, just get me somewhere!" Hector opened the basement door and Sam stepped back, she didn't want him anywhere near her. He ran down to her and picked her up. She started panicking, yelling out even more. "Not you, I hate you! I hate you!"

"Just shut up, I'm getting you to Valerie's room," Hector replied. The whole place was in a panic now. Jeremy pushed the bed into Valerie's room and placed it next to hers. Hector ran in and carefully placed Sam next to Valerie, then removed her pants. She actually kicked him several times during the process. Finally, after a long time of waiting, the doctor had arrived. She ran into the room and started ordering everybody out except Gibby. She knew that Valerie had more compatibility with him and wouldn't mind him being there to help calm her down. Valerie and Sam both had issued negative reactions against Hector, Jeremy, and Nevel.

The men were pacing in the living room, trying to figure out what to do with their time. "How the hell could you make her pregnant?" Jeremy screamed at Hector. He narrowed his eyes and stared at the youth.

"You were the one that made my mind start slipping away, so don't give me that! Hell, you're no better, you don't think we see how you look at Valerie?"

"Well at least Valerie isn't my own flesh and blood!" Hector growled and grabbed Jeremy's shirt, glaring into his eyes. "You're just a sick bastard!"

"It takes one to know one, chump." Nevel yelled out and quickly stepped in between the two, trying to push them apart. He knew that fighting would get them nowhere fast.

"Guys relax, we can't fight right now!" Nevel proclaimed. "We just need to learn to tolerate each other. The girls are having children, whether we want it or not. We need to deal with it."

"I really don't want to raise children."

"I know, nobody here seems to want to, but we can't help it."

"I know…" Hector ran his hand through his hair and tried to stop his chattering teeth. He didn't want any children, he didn't want to be a father, or was it grandfather? He didn't know how this was supposed to be. "My god, I am an asshole." Incest was unnatural, but even more unnatural was the forcible rape of your own child. He couldn't stop himself, though. Why couldn't he stop? He didn't care, he enjoyed the thrill of sex as it were.

Hours passed and finally the girls had given birth to their children. Valerie held her baby girl in her arms and smiled, singing softly to it. Sam looked over, holding her twins in her arms. When she looked at them, she loved them. She didn't care how they came to be, she loved them because they were a part of her. Valerie loved her daughter, she loved her so much. Sam looked over and smiled at her as Valerie sang. "What is that you're singing to her?" Sam asked softly.

"In My Daughter's Eyes by Martina McBride, my mom always loved singing it to me." Valerie rocked her baby, the girl wasn't even crying. Sam nodded and looked at the little girl.

"She has his eyes."

"She's beautiful."

"What's her name?" Valerie continued to gaze into her baby's eyes.

"Rachel."

"That's a beautiful name." Sam cradled her two boys and started singing Baby Mine. Valerie smiled at her and closed her eyes, Sam had a very beautiful singing voice. She wondered if Freddie had ever heard such a voice in his life. "They bring the life back to me…"

"I know…"

"How could something so precious, be born in a place so filled with sin?" Sam slowly draped the towels back around her two boys. One of the twins had bright blue eyes while the other had deep brown eyes. "Derek and Adam, I think I'm going to name them that." Valerie nodded her head and held Rachel close to her, she was never letting her daughter go.

"If only Jonah could see his beautiful baby girl." Sam didn't feel jealous at all towards Valerie, having someone like Jonah to father her child. No, she was extremely happy for her. She had to get past her sons being fathered by him, but it might be difficult at first.

"I accept my boys, regardless of their…father…" It was like acid on her tongue, it burned her mouth so badly. She closed her eyes and sobbed once. Valerie placed her hand on Sam's hand and squeezed it gently.

"It's going to be okay, Sam. You'll see. Something good's going to come of all this, I'm sure." The door opened and Jeremy entered the room. He frowned as the babies began to cry. The new mothers quickly began trying to coax them and comfort them.

"Don't think we're going to let you raise your children for long," Jeremy said scornfully. Valerie and Sam looked up and clutched their babies closer, fearing that Jeremy might try and take them away. "Sam, you're going to be chained, or well…It seems Hector's been considering just putting you in a cell. You aren't going to be able to raise those kids."

"You aren't touching our children," Valerie said while narrowing her gaze. She didn't care if it was Jeremy, she would defend her baby to him no matter what. Jeremy growled and slowly approached her.

"You can take your little baby…" Jeremy grabbed Rachel from Valerie's arms and she screamed, reaching up for her.

"Rachel! Give me my baby!" Sam shouted in protest and glared angrily at him.

"Give her back her little girl!" Sam shouted. Jeremy smirked and held the crying baby in his arms, cradling her.

"Look at this little girl," Jeremy said while rocking her back and forth. "It would be such a shame if someone dropped her on her head." Jeremy made a dropping motion and Valerie screamed, throwing her hands up.

"Jeremy, what are you doing?" Gibby's voice floated in the air. Jeremy turned his head around and saw Gibby standing in the doorway, his arms crossed and his stern gaze narrowed onto him. Gibby approached him, almost menacingly. He carefully took Rachel into his arms and stared at Jeremy dangerously. "If I were you, I'd leave the room now."

"Fuck you Gibby."

"Now. Jeremy." Jeremy rolled his eyes and threw his hands up in frustration. He muttered to himself and left the room as Gibby handed Rachel to Valerie. Rachel cooed as Valerie snuggled her close, tears fleeing her eyes.

"Momma's not letting anything happen to you baby," Valerie said as she kissed her daughter's forehead. "The mean man isn't going to hurt you."

"The babies aren't safe here," Gibby said quietly. It was pretty obvious that babies being here would be very bad. Valerie and Sam looked up hopelessly, seeing no possible way to change that. Gibby sighed and slowly closed the door, he actually had a suggestion for them. "I uh…I have a girlfriend, you know…"

"When did that happen?" Valerie asked curiously. Gibby blushed and looked down, he had kept it a secret from everyone. For quite some time now, whenever he had his daily time to get out of the house, he would meet up with a girl that he met at the movies one night. "You started dating someone and never told me? I thought we were close, Gibby." She was teasing him now. He blushed more and crossed his arms over.

"Her name is Sylvia. She's really sweet. She loves kids, and when I told her about you two being pregnant…she offered to look after them for you."

"Wait, you mean you told her what-" Gibby grunted and quickly cupped his hand over Valerie's mouth. Sam's eyes grew wide in wonder and Gibby slowly looked away. He couldn't help it, whenever he was with Sylvia, he just had to tell the truth. He couldn't lie to her. She even asked.

"Well, she asked because she knew I'd been missing for some time. She waited a while to ask. I know I can trust her...I told her that we were forced into silence, threatened, and all the other stuff that's going on. She says she won't tell anybody, for fear of my safety and hers."

"Okay, doesn't Hector and Victor have guys watching you?" Sam asked as she slowly sat up straight. So why did nobody know what was going on? Gibby frowned and looked towards the window. He actually was deemed the most 'trustworthy' by Hector, who was more lenient with him.

"If Jeremy's upset about special treatment…maybe if he acted more like me, Hector would trust him enough to not have people spying on his every move. Sure, they still got guys on me, but Hector understands the need to have a relationship. They don't spy on me then."

"Lucky ass…"

"Yeah, but she's offered to look after the children, since she knows they're in a dangerous situation. Think about it for a while…" The girls nodded as Gibby slowly left the room. They didn't know what they were going to do, but they did agree with Gibby, their babies lives were in danger while living in this house.

Sorry messed up, it's fixed now!
