The Gain

Ellie was laying on her bed, just watching tv. She had about two weeks left in her pregnancy, so with her due date approaching, she was tired more often and just wanted to relax. Colt was away for the past couple of days with wrestling shows, but he was only a few cities away in case he was needed for anything. However, his mother was staying with Ellie while he was gone. As Ellie went to change the channel, she felt a sudden sharp back pain and thought maybe she moved too fast or something. That clearly wasn't the case when she went to stand up and felt her water break. The baby was going to come a little sooner. "Marcia!" she called out and then looked over at her when she came into the room. Ellie told her what happened and luckily she wasn't experiencing much pain yet, but she needed to get to the hospital. They grabbed Ellie's bag and headed to the car, bringing the kids with them since they were home. Marcia called Colt.

Scott had just wrapped a match and was wiping off when he phone rang. He saw it was his mom and picked up. "Hey mom. What's up?"

"Hi honey. Um, how much longer do you think you'll be?"

"Mm, couple hours." he said as he checked the time on his phone. "Why, what's up?"

"Don't freak out, but Ellie's water broke and we're on our way to the hospital."

"Elie's water broke but I can't freak out?"

"I knew it was going to happen anyway." she said. "Luckily her contractions are far apart, so it's nothing too serious yet. We just left, hopefully you can be there in a few hours."

"I just finished with a match, I'll clean up and get there as soon as possible."

"Alright. I'll keep you updated." she told him.

He hung up and took a quick shower before heading out quickly, starting to make the drive back to Chicago to be there with Ellie.

In the meanwhile, they made it to the hospital and the kids were picked up by Punk to go over to his house to be with the kids and Lacy. Paperwork was filled out and Ellie was in her room. All she could do was wait now.

He made it back into town about an hour and a half later and was at the hospital in another half an hour. He went into the hospital and asked for Ellie's room number, explaining that he was the father. They brought him up and he went to Ellie's room. "El?"

She was laying on her side and then looked over when she heard him. "Hi." she waved with a small smile. The contractions were starting to get to her.

He made his way in and smoothed her hair back. "How we doing?"

"Doing okay. Feeling the pain a little bit, but it's not too bad."

"That's good." he kissed her forehead. "Do you need anything?"

"Lay with me for a little?"

"is that allowed?" he chuckled.

"I don't think I care." she snorted. "If they say anything...well, we can beat them up."

"I'm exhausted, I don't think I can." he said as he got into bed with her.

She frowned a bit. "I can imagine. It was a long drive." she said as she rested her head on his shoulder. "Peanut just doesn't want to wait. It's in trouble the minute it comes out."

"Only if it's ugly." he chuckled.

She laughed. "That is not nice." she said as she slapped his chest gently. "...but it won't be ugly cause we're so adorable." she chuckled.

"You're adorable. I'm kind of on the fence." he smirked.

"You're hot, so shhhhh." She said and then bit her lip as she felt another contraction pass.
