Laxus and I were at the guild talking with Evergreen and Bickslow. I was due very soon and I couldn't wait to meet my baby girl.

I felt my stomach clenched painfully and I yelped in pain. "Freed?" Laxus asked concerned walking to my side.

"What's wrong?" He asked reaching out for my shoulder.

"The baby is coming" I said grabbing my stomach

"What really?" Laxus asked surprised

I nodded "arghh" I cried again as I had another contraction.

"Okay okay let's go to the hospital" Laxus said helping me stand up but as soon as I stood up my water broke.

"It's time" Laxus said picking me up

"Just relax I will get you to the hospital" Laxus said kissing my forehead.

I smiled leaning in closely to Laxus's warm chest.

"Ow ow ow" I yelled as I had yet another contraction

"Don't worry Freed you're doing great" Laxus said kissing my forehead

"How much longer?" I whined

"Not much longer my Prince a few more hours" Laxus said

"A few more hours? Hours?" I cried hopelessly "I can't do it Laxus"

"Yes you can Freed just be brave" he said

"I hate you" I said groaning

"I love you too Freed"

I was three bloody weeks late. I groaned this was so uncomfortable. I swear to Mavis if this baby doesn't come out soon I'm getting a c-section.

Natsu was in the kitchen making me some lunch when my stomach cramped "argh" I whined I was used to cramps but this was different somehow.

"Natsu!" I yelled down the stairs

"Hang on Gray I will be there in a minute!" He yelled back

I stood up gripping my stomach trying to make it down the stairs but as reached the top of the staircase my water broke.

"Natsu!" I yelled again more desperate than last time.

Natsu walked up the stairs holding a tray with my lunch on. "Gray you're not supposed to be up come on go back to bed" Natsu said

"No Natsu I can't..." I said gasping as I had another contraction "the baby's coming"

"What Gray are you sure?" Natsu asked

"Y-yeah pretty s-sure" I said slightly pissed having a contraction.

"Okay let me just grab the somethings then we will go" Natsu said

I nodded trying to make it down the stairs but tripping and nearly falling down them but luckily Natsu caught me and said "just relax I've got everything under control"

I nodded letting Natsu help me down the stairs.

We were in the hospital and I was squeezing Natsu's hand hoping that he would feel some of the pain I was in.

"It's okay Gray" he said soothingly

"Don't fucking tell me it's okay" I said annoyed and in a lot of pain "you're the little shit who did this to me"

"Okay Gray is there anything I can do?" He asked sweetly

I groaned "let me take the painkillers" I said in pain

"Babe you can't it could hurt the baby" he said

"I hate you" I said bitterly

"I love you too Gray" Natsu replied smiling.

Sting was supposed to be coming back today from yet another mission. He had been on so many recently it was so quite at home.

I was due in a month so Sting said that he was trying to go on as many missions as possible before then.

I got up and walked to the kitchen "argh" I cried out as my stomach clenched painfully. I keeled over and yelped.

The baby was coming and Sting wasn't here.

I checked my watch it read 2:43pm Sting's train was supposed to arrive at 2:50pm maybe I could meet him at the train station then we could go to the hospital together.

I stumbled out the house struggling to stay upright I had to stop often to deal with the contractions but suddenly when I was nearing the train station my water broke. Crap.

I could see a train pull into the station and I prayed it was Sting's. I looked around the filling up platform for my mate.

"Rogue!" Sting's familiar voice called I looked and saw him running towards me.

"What are you doing here? You need to rest" he said

"Sting the baby i- argh" I tried to tell him but was stopped as I had another contraction.

"Rogue?!" Sting questioned terrified

"The baby's coming" I managed to say. "Please take me to a hospital" I begged

"Of course just breathe I've got you, I'm here" he said lifting me up bridal style.

"I c-can't do it Sting" I yelled as I lay in the hospital bed.

"Yes you can Rogue keep breathing okay" Sting said trying to help

I could feel my body getting weaker and weaker I didn't know if I was going to make it. Black dots started to cloud my vision.

I could hear the faint hum of Sting's voice desperately calling for a doctor and when the doctor arrived they tried to keep me awake saying "stay with us now Mr Cheney"

But I could my body went slack as I fell unconscious.
