Kennedy

Raif continues to purr as we walk to the hospital, and I lean my head on Quirin's shoulder.

“Are you scared?" I ask him quietly.

"Terrified. As excited as I am to meet our daughters, I've only felt fear like this once before in my life and that's when you were taken."

I chuckle, but the movement sends a jolt of pain through my stomach so I stop.

Quirin presses a kiss to the side of my head as we walk into the hospital and straight to what he calls the 'Kennedy Suite'. I will say, Mom is absolutely prepared for my babies to arrive. There are four bassinets, waiting to be filled, a larger than normal counter with multiple areas to bathe, measure, and weigh my little ones and all the equipment mom thinks we might need in case any of our pups or I go into distress during delivery.

Quirin and I are very familiar with the procedure of me getting checked, so he hooks up the heart monitors over my stomach while mom prepares to check me. This might be my favorite part of the day, watching Quirin as he sets the heart monitors and smiles wider and wider as each of his pup's heart beats begin echoing in the room.

Mom comes over and looks at the heart monitor, then turns to look at where the monitors are on my stomach before turning back.

"I think today's the day," she murmurs.

"What's that, Mom?" I ask as Quirin goes very still.

"This little one is starting to show signs of distress. I think it's time to induce you, Kennedy," she says.

I look at Quirin. "No fainting."

He shakes his head rapidly. "Is that definite, Yara?" he asks her.

"Yep, I've already got what I need to induce Kennedy's labor right here," she says.

Quirin opens the pack link. 'Attention everyone! Today is delivery day! Follow the protocol we've discussed.

I hear lots of excitement and 'good lucks' before he shuts the link down.

"What type of protocol?" I ask him.
