Sonny walked Darius to the kitchens. Before either could even step a foot into the doorway, Tamber called in his low baritone monotone voice, "Take a seat. The food will be ready in ten minutes."

"Oh, Tammy! You know me too well.* Darius crooned, already drooling over the smell of the food drifting through the kitchen. He lumbered over to a nearby chair, easing himself slowly down. It was hard sitting at the table now, seeing as his belly stuck out so far.

Sonny sat beside Darius noting that even after almost a year, his younger barer brother still frowned everytime Darius called him Tammy. As they waited to be served, Sonny took ahold of Darius hand a smiled at him. "I love you."

Darius giggled. *Love you to.* They had both come so far and Darius was still as happy as could be with his mate. His other hand rested atop his bulging belly and he winced as someone kicked him get again. He would be glad when the babies finally arrived.

Tamber came over and set two plates in front of the awaiting parents, one with a larger portion than the other for Darius. "How long?" he asked meaning how much longer until they were to be born.

Darius shrugged. "Any day now I'm thinking.* That was all he said as he dug into the food in front of him, eating with much gusto.

"Can't wait," Tamber said sarcastically heading back to the cooking area of the kitchens. Sonny just smiled and shook his head before turning to Darius. "I honestly really can't wait. I want to meet these children of ours."

*Yeah. And maybe is Tammy wasn't such a grump," the Fae added loudly, "then I think he'd be excited too." Darius grinned happily, fingers drumming lightly on his stomach. He bit the inside of his cheek suddenly, the Fae expelled a loud breath at a sudden pain in his lower back. He took slow deep breaths, telling himself that it was just another false alarm.

Sonny placed his hands on both of Darius' shoulder alarmed. "Are you alright. Do I need to get Riley?"

Darius took a breath and just shook his head. The pain subsided and he relaxed. *No it's fine. I'm sure it's another false alarm.*
However, the next contraction hit him like a ton of bricks and Darius cried out in alarm as he gripped his belly, the rippling of his womb beneath his skin obvious. It was no false alarm.

"Tamber," Sonny commanded, "go get Riley." Sonny knelt down beside Darius patting at his face. In his pregnant state, Darius was too heavy for Sonny to carry around comfortably for the long walk to the medibox they had set up in the appartments of Tune, Riley and their family. "Hold on, Darius, Riley is coming and we shall take you to the medibox."

Darius just nodded, gritting his teeth. He only had a moment to relax before another contraction slammed into him. The Fae was breathing heavily, face already slick with sweat and motherly concentration. He also felt his water break, liquid seeping from his bellybutton and soaking his tunic front.

Right when Darius' water broke, Riley arrived along with tune and the first brother Symphony carrying a stretcher in between them. Riley and Sonny carefully helped Darius onto the stretcher and walked quickly and gingerly to the medibox in the Dr.'s apartment.

Darius panted in pain, tears pricking his eyes as he lay back on the stretched. He wanted to cry out but bit his tongue, uttering only low moans during every contraction.
The Fae was practically delirious from the nearly constant contractions, each one seeming worse than the next. When the time came for the medibox, it was a welcome relief.

Once Darius was set in the medibox, Riley ushered a reluctant sonny out of the room. Sonny stared at the medibox through a glass window on the other side and waited impatienly for his children and Darius.
