You blink slowly then you whisper through a soft groan.
Owww...
You softly close your eyes but then You snap up again. You look over at Velvette and groan softly. You realize what is going on and reach out for her hand.
Ummm.... Velv.... I... think baby's definitely.... on the way...
Velvette, Vox, and Valentino were in a meeting in the meeting room of the V Tower.
And that is when it had happened...
You are Velvette's wife and you are heavily pregnant with your first child together. And what had started out as a simple meeting has become chaos.
Velvette takes your hand in hers, noticing the change in your demeanor. She squeezes it gently, sensing the urgency.
Velvette: "I know, sweetheart. It's time."
Vox and Valentino exchange worried glances.
Vox: "You think the baby's coming?"
You nod softly as things become more apparent that this is definitely happening.
You look worried at both Vox and Valentino. You don't know what to do this is your first pregnancy.
Vox and Valentino notice the concern and worry on Your face. Vox leans forward, his expression turning serious.
Vox: "Okay, it's going to be alright. Just focus on staying calm, alright? That's the most important thing you can do right now."
Valentino nods in agreement, trying to reassure You.
Valentino: "Just listen to your body, princessa. It knows what it's doing."
Immmediately You perk up and you bring your hands to brace your stomach.
Right now.... it's telling me... to... go home...
You jolt and try to get up from the chair. Vox and Valentino immediately stand up, their concern growing stronger as You try to get up from the chair.
Vox: "Whoa, whoa, hold on! You're not going anywhere just yet."
Valentino chimes in, gently gripping your arm to keep you from standing.
Valentino: "You're in labor, sweetheart. You need to stay put and let us help you."
Oh god!!!!
You moan as you grip the armrests of the chair tightly.
Velvette is already turning the spinning chair and starting to try to push it out of the meeting room to head for the elevator.
Vox and Valentino exchange worried glances and quickly move to help Velvette push the spinning chair towards the elevator, supporting You as they rush You out.
Vox: "Just breathe, princess. We're getting you home. Just take deep breaths."
Valentino nods in agreement, his grip on the chair tight.
Valentino: "Almost there. You're doing great, sweetheart."
You reach out to take one of Valentino's hands and hold on for dear life.
Uuuuuuuhhhhhhh!!!
Valentino squeezes Your hand reassuringly, trying to provide comfort as they rush you towards the elevator.
Valentino: "Shhhh princessa, it's okay. Just hold on. We're almost there."
Vox continues to help push the chair, his expression tense with concern. He's fully focused on getting you home safely. They all share a penthouse floor here in V Tower and that is where they need to go.
Vox: "Just keep breathing through it."
As they are pushing You through the hallways employees of Voxtech pause and stare. Some are in the way.
The Vees push through the crowded halls, trying to maneuver through the employees. You are in discomfort and distress.
Velvette: "Move! Out of the way! We need to get her to the elevator now!"
Vox: "Clear a path! She's in labor and we need to get her home immediately!"
As You are being pushed through the halls you grip the armrest and Valentino's hand tightly. You moan as the chaos unfolds around You.
The Vees continue to push Your chair through the gathering crowd, their focus solely on getting you to the elevator.
Vox: "She doesn't want the hospital! Just move! Move, damn it!"
Finally, they manage to reach the elevator, with Vox mashing impatiently on the button.
Vox: "Come on, hurry the hell up!"
Valentino glances at the crowd surrounding them, still holding your hand, trying to shield You from the stares with his wings.
Valentino: "Back up, people! Give her some space!"
