How Can Words Describe

Chapter 5

"My...My...My water just broke!" yell Relena. Heero looked bewildered at the now wet bed sheets.
"Regaining her memory was such a shock that it sent her into premature labor!" the doctor yelled as she ran around Relena doing who knows what.
"What?!" yelled Heero.
"She is going to have the babies soon," the doctor explained to Heero.
"Babies?!"
"She's going to have twins. Didn't you know that?" Heero remembered what Relena told him in the coffee shop before they recognized each other. He almost felt like fainting. Not only was soon going to be a father, but the father of twins.
"Are you alright?" the doctor asked.
Just then another contraction hit Relena.
"AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"Relena!" Heero grabbed Relena's hand trying to comfort her.
"What? Another contraction so early?" the doctor said more to himself then to Heero or Relena.
"What's wrong?" Heero demanded from the doctor. Heero's mind was running on overdrive from all the emotions and information that had been crammed into him in the past ten hours.
"She's having the first baby faster then normal. Is this her first birth?"
Heero was a little shock but nodded his head in response. The doctor lifted the blanket to look at Relena (and of those sick minded people I don't mean anything perverted).
"She's at 5cm! We've got to get her into the delivery room, now!" the doctor said as she replaced the blanket. The doctor reached to push a red call button on the wall. Within seconds three nurses appeared.
"She's gone into labor and fast. We need to get her to the delivery room quickly." The doctor explained to the three nurses. One of the nurses came up to Heero.
"Excuse me sir. Are you the father?"
"Huh?" was Heero's response as he turned to the nurse.
"Umm...Yes." Heero said as the words the nurse said finally sunk into his head.
"If you want to help deliver the baby you need to come with me to get cleaned up," she explained to him. Heero looked down at Relena who was at the moment being moved onto a rolling bed. She looked at Heero with pleading eyes.
"Please don't leave me, Heero." She begged as she squeezed tighter to his hand that she still held.
"I just have to go get cleaned up so I can stay with you through the delivery," Heero told Relena. Tears started to form in Relena's eyes at the thought of leaving Heero even if only for a moment, but she nodded anyway.
"I'll be back soon. I promise!" Heero said as he released Relena's hand and followed the nurse.

A few minutes later found Relena in the delivery room. The doctor had her ready for the delivery but Heero still wasn't there.
"Ms. Yuy (they still knew her as Cassandra Yuy) you are going to need to push soon."
"No! I have to wait for Heero!" Relena yell. Tears stained her face from the last contraction.

Meanwhile

Heero had just finished washing his hands and put on the green smock when the mechanism at his waist started to beep. Heero almost jumped as the beeping sound startled him.
In the past he had turned it off because he did not want to talk to anyone. Mainly Duo who was the only person who knew he was alive, but for some reason he had turned it on when he got dressed yesterday.
The thing automatically turned on to the sound of Duo's voice.
"Heero! Heero pick up now!" was the angry voice of Duo.
Heero sighed and pulled the mini vid-phone out of his pocket. He flipped up the top to look an angry Duo Maxwell in the eye.
"Were have you been? I've been trying to reach you for the past week! I was starting to think you were dead! Again!"
"Duo of all people I'd think you would have more faith in me then that. Anyhow this is a bad time I've got to go."
"Hold in right there! I need to talk to you. Now! Have you been watching the news? The..."Duo was cut off by Heero.
"Duo! I said right now is not a good time!"
"What could be more important then..." again Duo was cut off.
"My first child is about to be born, Duo! Relena's going to kill me if I'm not there!"
Duo's eye grew to the size of saucers and his jaw dropped to the floor. Before Duo could recover Heero threw the vid-phone to the floor and stepped on it. Little bits scattered on the floor as Heero left the wash room.

A few seconds later Heero entered the delivery room to the music of Relena's cursing. She turned to face Heero as he entered the room.
"Were the **** have you been you ****** *******!?" she yelled. Heero's eyes widened a little at Relena's vivid speech. Little did he know that he was about to hear words come from her mouth that no pacifist should know, none the less say.
Heero looked at the doctor as if to say 'What do I do?'.
"Don't worry she doesn't mean it. It's the pain talking. If I were you I would let her hold your hand."
Heero looked at Relena who was at the moment screaming as loud as she possibly could, then he looked at the nurse with a you've-got-to-be-crazy look, but he grabbed Relena's hand despite that look.
Everyone, for the exception of Relena, flinched as the sound of the bones in Heero's hand breaking could be heard through out the room.
"I'm going to count to three then I'm going to need you to push Relena," the doctor finally said. Relena nodded her head and Heero took a deep breath.
"One-Two-Three! Push!" The doctor yell.
"AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Relena yelled as she squezzed Heero's hand even tighter if possible. Heero deparetly wanted to scream with her but didn't.
"OK you can stop for a second" the doctor told Relena.
Relena turned to Heero, murder in her eyes.
"If I live through this I'm going to kill you! I don't care that you are twice as strong as I am, I'm going to kill you! And forget about ever sleeping with me again after this. I never want you to touch me again." Relena managed to yell at Heero all in one breath. She was about to start another threat when the doctor told her to push again.
This process repeated itself a few times before the doctor finally declared that the hand was out.
"Now one more big push!"
Again Relena pushed. By then tears were streaming down her face and she was in too much pain to yell at Heero. She just screamed.
At that very moment Heero's world paused. There were so many emotions he was feeling that he thought he would never feel. Guilt, for causing Relena so much pain. Bewilderment, because everything was suddenly going so fast. Fear, which in itself scared him. The perfect soldier had never been scared of anything and now he was scared of so many things. Scared for Relena and his two unborn children. Scared for himself and how his life was about to change weather he wanted it to or not. But the emotion that ruled over every other was love. Love for Relena that was always there but just resently found. And love for his children that he had not even laid eyes on yet. His life was changing so much and he, for once, had no control.
The sound of a baby's wail woke Heero from his thoughts.
"Congratulations! It's a boy!"
The baby was cleaned up then placed into its mother's waiting arms. Tears of joy flooded Relena's eyes as she held their child. The baby stopped crying once in her arms. He opened his eyes to reveal Prussian blue pools. Relena moved the light blue blanket enough to see the baby's honey brown hair. Then Relena smiled and looked at Heero who hand his arm around her and was kneeling beside the bed.
"He's so beautiful Relena." Heero whispered into her ear. Relena moved her head to place a soft kiss on Heero's lips.
"Thank you, Heero. You have given me the best gift I could ever receive. I love you so much!"
"I love you too," Heero said without hesitation.
"You want to hold your son Heero Yuy?" Relena said as she held out the baby.Those words struck a chord in Heero's heart as he gently took the baby from Relena. A nurse came up to him and showed him how to handle him correctly before leaving the room with the doctor and the other nurses. Heero looked down at his son. A dam of tears broke free and found their way down his cheeks.
One of them landed softly on the baby's forehead. Then the baby yawned and started to fall asleep in his father's arms.
"What should we name him?" came Relena's quiet voice.
Heero just stood there for a few seconds thinking.
"How about Mitchell?" he finally asked.
"I like Mitchell. Well Mitchell it is then. Mitchell Conroy Yuy."
Heero just smiled. Suddenly a nurse popped into the room.
"I need to take the baby to the nursery now."
Heero reluctantly handed the baby over to the nurse who placed him in a plastic tub lined in blankets.
"The doctor will be in soon to give you an epadural Ms. Yuy." The nurse added as she exited the room.

Not long after, the doctor come back into the room followed by two other nurses.
"Are you ready for your epadural?" Relena nodded her head vigorously in response. Heero watched as they stuck the needle in Relena's spine and injected her with painkillers. A few minutes later Relena was sitting in bed perfectly happy considering she was in no pain anymore.

Heero had gone to the nursery to see his newborn son.
Heero was sitting in a chair holding his now sleeping son and debating sleeping himself when a doctor entered the nursery in somewhat of a hurry. He walked right up to Heero.
"Mr. Yuy?"
"Yes that's me," Heero stood up and placed Mitchell in his crib, "Has Relena gone into labor again?"
"No. There was some type of complication."
"What do you mean 'complication'?" demanded Heero before the doctor could finish his sentence.
"The baby's heart stopped beating. Relena in an emergency c-section at the moment."
Heero's world froze. His knees started to give way and finally did as he landed with a 'thud' on the cold floor.
"I will tell you what happens as soon as the surgery is over," the doctor told him. Heero daftly nodded his head in response without looking up at the doctor.

After a few minutes Heero managed to pull himself up into a chair. His eyes locked onto the clock over the doorway. He watched impatiently as each second ticked away. Heero thought the worst to be true. He had feared this the past twenty-four hours and now it was actually happening. What if the child did die? Worst, what if Relena died? Heero had just now learned to love he didn't yet know or want to know what it was like to lose someone he loved.

After what seemed like hours but was actually about fifteen minutes the same doctor came back into the nursery. Heero stood up as the doctor approached him.
"Congratulations Mr. Yuy! You are very lucky! You now have a baby girl."
"Thank you so much!" Heero felt like crying again but wasn't sure if he could manage it again.
"How is Relena?"
"She lost some blood during the operation but she'll be fine. You'll be able to see her in an hour. Your daughter will be here soon." Heero just nodded. The doctor exited the nursery as a nurse pushed in a cart with a tub lined in pink blankets. The nurse stopped at Heero. Then she too left the room leaving him and his two children. (There were no other children in the nursery) Heero gently picked up his daughter from the crib. She had her mother's light blue eyes and Heero's dark hair. She reached out from her blanket with a tiny hand. Heero noticed that there was a plastic bracelet on her wrist. He turned it so that he could read it.
"'Claire Louise Yuy'" Heero read out loud. 'Relena named her already' Heero thought and smiled at his daughter as she started to fall asleep like her brother. He gently placed her back in her crib and sat down. If someone had told him yesterday when he woke up that he would now be a father he probably would have laughed at the person (then shot him). He wondered what he was going to do now. Leaving Relena again was not an option he knew that. And when Milliardo found out that not only was his alive but he had gotten his sweet sister pregnant he was worse then dead. He could just imagine his face when he finds out.
But Heero decided not to think about that when had so many other things to think about at the moment, like the long talk he a Relena were going to have in an hour.
So Heero Yuy, the Perfect Soldier, sat in a nursery on L10 looking over his two children Mitchell Conroy Yuy and Claire Louise Yuy. The world is in for a big surprise?!
