Finally Free From Everything
Months have passed, what has felt like years. Our honeymoon was spectacular with me dragging Gavin almost to every historical or Lord of the Rings related landmarks I could possibly find. We also visited the place where Chris and Kerry had journyed to and placed a novelty ring of power into the dirt.
During those two weeks after our wedding, I was moody some days yet very excited to know that we were in the birthplace of the movies that were a big impact on my life as well as the books. Gavin made sure I was comfortable as we went to small restaurants for dinners and also when we were on tours. We visited the set of The Shire and took pictures with each other to remember what had happened that day.
I didn't want to leave at all. I wanted to spend the rest of my years there with Gavin and just enjoy the beautiful scenery. Since my hormones were raging most of the time, a good and bad thing, Gavin comforted to me and was there for any type of need--food, comfort, and sexual related.
It's been five months since the wedding and our honeymoon, that now my stomach has become bigger with my two children growing inside of me. The first time they kicked, I was home alone, but when I grew excited and called Gavin that very instant, he drove home immedietly. I made sure he got a license when he got home because it was about fucking time. He groaned and whined about it, but he soon realised I was right and he was happy to be driving our new car.
The nursery was absolutely beautiful. Lindsay, Caiti, and Barbs did a remarkable job. They had done a mural on one of the walls--the shire in all it's splendor and failrytale like quality. The cribs were across from each other with dark wood and green and white beddings. A chest stock full of toys and other things was underneath the window you first see when you wall inside. The changing table was wood as well with a long counter with two changning stations on top.
When I finished reading the pregnancy books, Gavin had insisted on reading them as well, since he has no skill with babies whatsoever. It was really cute seeing him in bed, trying to play video games while reading about the birthing process and also teething. It's a good thing he wanted to learn all of this becaus being nine months pregnant at the moment was scaring the shit out of me.
"How scared are you from 1 to 50?" Bree asked me as her, Michael, Gavin, and I were out at lunch.
"Way higher than a fucking 50, Bree," I sighed out, hand on stomach and nibbling on my salad I ordered.
"Especially since you have to deliver two babies through your vagina." Michael said. I scrunched my nose in disgust and flipped him off, only getting a laugh in response.
"Positive words, Michael." Gavin said, tightening his arm around my shoulders.
"Sorry," Michael drank down the rest of his beer. "Just stating the obvious."
"Are you and Lindsay trying?" Bree asked. Lindsay did tell me a few months ago they were, but I never heard anything else about it.
"We did, but we've been so caught up in work that we haven't even tried anymore," Michael shrugged. "I don't care, but in the beginning I kind of did. Maybe sometime in the future."
"It would be so cute to see the Free babies and a Jones baby to interact," Bree fangirled. She was becoming more and more involved with Roosterteeth and Achievement Hunter that she was also creating fan pages and reading some stories our fans have written. She said she was only supporting, but I knew better.
"You know, you never did tell us who the godparents would be," Michael raised an eyebrow. "Will there be?"
"Is that a hint that you want to be a godparent, Mikey?" Gavin teased, making the curly haired lad to roll his eyes. I have actually thought about this and my mind always went to either Michael, Geoff, or Burnie to be the Godfather of my children.
"We'll see when they come, I guess." I shrugged.
"That will be soon, so you better figure it out, missy." Michael pestered me. I rolled my eyes and leaned against Gavin as I felt another kick, excitedly grabbing his hand and place it on top of my stomach. HIs eyes lit up and his grin spread on his face as he felt one of them kicking.
"Does it feel weird?" Bre asked as she leaned over to feel as well.
"Sort of." I nodded.
"What if the birth happens like it does to Kane in Alien? You know? When it bursts through and makes a hissing sound?" Michael said and I felt my insides want to spill out from my mouth.
"Michael!" Gavin groaned and shook his head.
"I'm just saying. Shit can happen, right? Maybe an alien impregnated her during the night and she's carrying it's hatchlings." The dick continued. I laid my head on the red and white table, feeling nauseated at the though Michael had implanted in my mind.
"Fuck off." I heard my husband say, but the table erupted into laughter, except from me as I kept my head down.
______________________
"Are you almost done reading that?" I asked Gavin. He was on the second pregnancy book and almost finished as he quickly skimmed the page he was on.
"Almost done, love." He narrowed his eyes as he read on and I groaned impatiently. I was sexually frustrated at the moment and I wanted to diffuse the tension. Gavin and I were laid back on our bed, the clock reading it was almost ten at night.
"Well, hurry up. I need your help." I said, my voice accidently sounding heated and annoyed. I hated being a bitch and hormonal all the damn time, but the pregnancy won't give me a break. I was either super hungry, super annoyed, super sad, or insanely frustrated.
"Got it." He turned to the last page and smiled when he finished; closing the book and throwing it across the room before gently rolling over me, making sure not to press too hard on my stomach.
"Took you long enough." I grumbled, making him laugh before pressing his lips to mine and running his hand down my side. I moand into the kiss as he deepend it. I wanted more as I tried pulling off his belt he had hooked around his trousers. He helped me and soon his jeans were off to leave him in his red boxers.
"Uh, love." He cleared his through. He was kissing down stomach to where my waistband was, but I felt his lips stop and I opened my eyes.
"What?" I sighed.
"Did you pee yourself or something?" He coughed awkwardly. That one question had me sit up quickly to stare down between my legs were a large wet spot was. I furrowed my brows before realisation hit me and I pushed him off me, my sexual needs tossed from my mind as I knew what was going to happen.
"Gavin, the babies are coming." I nodded as his eyes were wide. He sprung off the bed, tripping and falling to the floor and grabbed his jeans, pulling them on.
"Get the bags." I told him as I went to the nursery to make a small bag for my babies. Just a few onsies and anything else I might need. I could hear clatters and rummages coming from our bedroom, making me roll my eyes until I felt the first contraction take over my body.
I groaned and leaned against the dresser in my children's room. My eyes fluttered shut hard as it flooded through my lower body until I could feel it in almost every spot of my body. Footsteps were rushing around the corner as I gasped again, louder this time, the bag in my hand dropping to the floor.
"I'll do it. You go to the lounge and rest for a second." Gavin's voice said from behind me, pushing me towards the door. I nodded and made my way to the living area, one hand on the wall and the other on my stomach as I moaned and groaned my way there. I stood next to the front door, leaning against the wall.
I was having these babies either tonight or early in the morning. The arrival of the babies were due anytime. I was really excited that they were coming, but also afraid. I didn't know what I would expect at all and I hoped nothing bad would come of this. Gavin, I felt, was more excited than me to become a parent. His childish nature and close connection to Millie as something he was familiar with and I knew he'd be great to our kids when they were here.
"Alright, I got the bags," Gavin came out from the nursery and rushed to my side. He opened the door for before closing it once we were outside. The steps were a probelm, but Gavin managed to help me through it while caryying tow bags on each shoulder. He pressed the button on the key for the car to start, the lights flashing to let us know it was open and ready. He opened my door for me, another contraction hitting as I sat down. He threw the bags in the back before rushing to the driver's side and plugging in the key.
"Oh my god," I groaned out. "Fuck." I buckled myself in as he drove away from the curb.
"How is it?" He asked, voice calm and collective. Fuck you and your calmness.
"It fucking bloody hurts," I said through my teeth. Gavin chuckled, turning a left. "Laugh it up, pretty boy." I said.
"Is this the part where you become the scary, in labour woman? I was hoping to avoid that." Gavin reached over and grasped my hand as he took another left.
"If you patronize me again, I will reach over and tear off your balls." I said out with a sigh, leaning back and closing my eyes as I tried to breath right.
"Okay, get it out," Gavin said, his hand squeezing mine. "Say whatever you need."
I turned my head to him and saw he was lightly sweating, his eyes wide and his lower lip between his teeth. "Sorry, I din't mean to be a bitch." I said.
"It's fine. You're in pain and I'm the closest person." He nodded. The rest of the drive was quiet as I tried to focus on my breathing and relaxing. I only had one more contraction before Gavin pulled into the hospital parking lot. He was lamost like Flash how he sped out, grabbed the bgas, and then ushered me out and into the lobby of the hospital.
"My wife's about to have a baby and not just one, two, okay?" Gavin said to the receptionist who took one glance at my sweaty and possibly red face before nodding. She brought me a wheelchair and had me sit, quickly taking me to where an empty room was. When we got to one, a nurse came in after, helping me to undress into a hospital gown and hooking me up into an IV. She left and told me my doctor would be in later to check on how long I have.
Gavin smiled at me as he sat in a chair beside my bed. "When she was setting you all up I called Michael and Burnie to tell them we'll be parents soon." I smiled at him and motioned for him closer. When he did, I kissed him softly.
"What were their reactions?" I giggled.
"Well, Michael was yelling and saying 'I fucking knew it' and Burnie was trying to come over here, but I told him to just sleep and in the morning we'll give him some news. As for now," Gavin leaned back. "You should probabaly sleep and rest. I'll be here." I nodded and laid back in my bed before closing my eyes. It didn't take long for me to fall asleep and dream about what would happen in the next few hours.
_____________
I woke up with the hospital room still dark with only a few lights from the machines next to me. Gavin had moved and was on the couch to the right of me underneath the window that showed out to Texas' main street. I placd a hand on stomach when a pain shot through me and it only rippled through my body, so I pressed the red button for a nurse.
She came in only seconds later, her hair a dark blond and eyes behind round spectacles. "Yes?" She asked, coming to my side.
"I thought my doctor was supposed to come and I'm feeling pain again." I told her.
"She did come in, but since you were fast asleep, she didn't want to wake you. As for your pain, I would give you an epideral, but we need to know how many centimeters you are first." She nodded. She pressd a button on a machine near me.
"Can you get my doctor?" I asked, my mouth feeling dry.
"Yes. Doctor Kalm right?" She said and I nodded. She left, making the room quie again. Gavin was mumbling in his sleep and I smiled at him. It wasn't long until my doctor came in, a bright smile on her face and a clipboard in hand. She took a quick glance at Gavin and chuckled.
"Hello again," She smiled, grabbing a stool and sliding it over so it was placed in front of my bed. "I did come in, but you were sleeping away."
"I know. I want to know how far I am so I can get that epideral shot? It hurts." I said, biting my lip as she had me pull my gown up. I spread my legs some so she could check.
"Well, you're about...four centimeters which is acceptable for a shot. I'll have Maura give you one, okay? Also, at this size you can give birth, but I don't think you're quite ready just yet. When you feel the urge to push or anything, press the red button again and we'll act quick on it. Okay?" She stood and I pulled my gown down.
"Thank you." I smiled. Doctor Kalm nodded and told the nurse at the door to allow me the shot. Maura brough over a small tray with a, let me say, fairly large needle and knowing me, I would've cried or squirmed away, but the pain I was enduring had me bite my tongue on it.
She flicked the end before giving my lower back the injection. I was really surprised when I didn't feel much and when I laid back, I felt a wave of comfort pass over me when I felt the pain quickly subside. When the door shut quietly behind the nurse, Gavin had woken up, his eyes groggy looking and his hair tousled.
"What's going on?" He asked, sleep making his voice deeper and rougher.
"I got the epideral shot. You should've read it in the book." I waved my hand at him as I felt my eyes feeling heavier.
"Right. Helps with contractions?" He coughed and pushed back the blankets the nurses had provided.
"Mhm." I nodded before resuming the well needed sleep.
___________
"Okay." I mumbled as I sat up for the second time this night. Outside the sky was a deep blue and fog was twisting around in light smoke waves. I felt the pain and I knew the shot had worn off sometime ago, but this time the pain was different and it was the pain that needed to be dealt with by pushing.
I leaned up farther and pressed the red button a few times. I heard the toilet flush in the loo, letting me know Gavin was still here since his spot on the couch was absent. Right when Gavin stumbled out of the bathroom, Doctor Kalm and two nurses came in.
"Pain and the feeling of pushing?" She asked. I nodded and she had me pull up my gown again. She nodded, before ordering the nurses to get supplies as she pulled clear gloves from the drawer to her right and slipping them on. "Gavin, I need you to put these scrubs on, okay?" She tossed him a pair of blue scrubs along with a cap.
"Whoa, wait. Now? Is it happening now?" He asked, eyes widening as he looked down at the scrubs in his arms.
"Yes! Go!" I yelled at him, rolling my eyes. He threw the cap on his head and began pulling himself into the scrubs. I felt a wave of pain go through me and I groaned out, moving back in the hospital bed and breathing slowly. The doctor sat once again on the stool from before, a mask on her face, and the pull on scrubs already on her. The two nurses from before came back, also now dressed in the same scrubs and with two small nursery beds and a few utensils.
"Okay, Gavin do you want to be here to see he birth or with your wife?" The doctor asked as she pushed my gown down further. I looked to Gavin as I gasped out again. I could feel the small beads of sweat already forming on my face as I tried really hard not to push.
"Gavin, I swear to fucking God." I said through gritted teeth. He gulped before coming next to me and grabbed my hand.
"I'm here." He nodded.
"You better be because these are your fucking kids and I have to push both of them out. I love you and hate you right now." I said, sitting back on my elbows as I grinded my teeth together from pain and the urge to push.
"Here's the labour bitchiness again." Gavin laughed.
"I'd watch my choice of words if I were you," I squeezed his hand hard on purpose, making me him gasp in pain. "There now we're even, you dick." I said with my groan.
"When I say push, Jane, I need you to." The doctor said and I nodded.
"Why'd you do this to me?" I cried out to Gavin.
"It was an honest accident, but a very happy one." Gavin said, amusement filling his voice and I wanted to punch him right in his groin to shut him up.
"Yeah, well your horniness got us into this damn situation." My legs were slightly shaking as I tried to breath out calmly.
"Hey, you're also to blame," Gavin laughed. "But I'm glad this is happening, Jane. We're going to be bloody parents soon!"
"Alright, Jane. On my count," The doctor said. "One...two...three!" She said. I breathed out once more before shutting my eyes tight and pushing hard and strong. I let out a few whimpers as I did, squeezing Gavin's hand so hard I thought I might rip it off.
"Nothing, yet. Again." I took two breaths before pushing once more. I felt like everything was coming undone and splitting apart as I pushed to let one of my babies out. I knew Gavin was just as anxious to get this over with so I wouldn't have to suffer this any longer. It was such terrible pain, but I knew it was worth it if I could bring my babies into this world.
"How about now?" Gavin asked over my crying and yelling.
"Yeah, she's crowning. A few more pushes should truly do it," The doctor said. I pushed harder each time, determination in my bones as I gripped Gavin's shaking hand tighter than I probably should. I could feel myself expanding more and sharp pains tear through me as I felt the baby make it's way out from me. "Okay, Jane, you're doing absolutely amazing. One more push!" I gave all that I had and practically screamed my head off as I pushed with all of my might. I heard thump to my left and when I looked over for a quick second, I saw Gavin on the floor.
"Maura, check on him!" Doctor Kalm said and the nurse bustled over to my fainted husband.
I pushed harder until I heard a loud cry pierce the tense air and I gasped with a happy cry as I felt slight relief from hearing that wonderous sound. I looked back over at Gavin and saw him being eased up by the nurse.
"W-what happened?" I said, trying to catch my breath.
"He probably saw the baby being born." The nurse nodded. I wanted to laugh my head off, but I was too tired and in pain to do so.
"Gavin, want to cut the umbilical cord?" The doctor said, my baby still crying it's little heart out. Gavin nodded woozily before going over and grabbing the pair of scissors from the other nurse. I heard the snip being made and the nurses acting fast to clean the baby up.
"Jane, you can take a few minutes to relax, but I will need you to prepare yourself for the other baby, okay?" She asked. I nodded. Gavin was standing behind the nurses, a smile on his face.
"I'm a dad." I think I heard him say, but I was in and out a few times. I watched as Maura, the nurse, wrapped my baby up and turned to smile at Gavin before placing the bundle into his awaiting arms. He clutched the baby close to his chest and gently rocked, trying to calm the crying. Soon enough, the room was quiet as everyone watched my husband rock our child to sleep.
"Jane?" I heard him say and I looked up, raising my eyebrows. "Want to hold our daughter?" He came closer with the pink bundle and I nodded eagerly, holding my arms out. He chuckled and bent down, kissing her forehead before placing her gently into my arms. He then kissed me lightly.
"She's so beautiful." I said, tears escaping my eyes as I smiled and hiccuped watching her sleep already so peacefully in my arms. I brought my finger down to be wrapped in her tiny hand. That was until I felt a pain rip through me and I gasped. I motioned for Gavin to take our daughter and he grabbd her as I went back to laying against my elbows.
"Alright, you're ready again," The doctor said, moving her chair back to in between my legs. "Gavin, make sure not to look." The doctor joked and he chuckled nervously. He stood next to me as I was askd to push and I gasped, letting my body control myself. I was so tired and out of it. The pain was greater than the first time, making me scream and I really hoped I wasn't frightening my daughter.
"I-I can't anymore." I said, laying my head back.
"Love, yes you can," Gavin shifted so he had her in one arm and his other hand was clasping mine now. "You're strong and you already brought one of our kids out. I love you. I need you to keep going and bring our son out, okay? Please? You can do it. I know you can." Gavin said soothingly and I breathed out quick, sharp breaths as I nodded, sitting back up.
"Ready?" The doctor asked. I breathed out and when she told me to push I did. I felt the hot tears slip from my eyes as I gasped and screamed from pain bringing out our second child. "Here he comes. Almost there, honey, you got this. Okay, one last push!" She smiled and I pushed once more and cried when I heard the second cry of the night.
Gavin was smiling big as he watched his second child. I wanted to see my son, but all I could really do was fade in and out until I was completely under.
________________________
"They're both so cute." A voice whispered as I groggily woke up. The room was dimmed, but I knew it was daylight outside. The voices were coming from a group by the couch and where the two small beds for the babies were. I moved my head to see The AH group, Bree, Barbs and Burnie surrounding the two bassinets and sitting on the couch.
"Good job, man." Michael patted Gavin's back, a grin showing dimples.
"Gavin...."I said softly and everyone turned to me. Gavin smiled and came by my side immediately, kissing both of my cheeks and lastly my lips.
"Hey, love," He said. "How are you feeling?"
"Better, but sore." I nodded.
"Yeah, the doctor said you would," He nodded. "Do you think you're strong enough to hold one of them?" He easked. I really wanted to hold them, so when I nodded he wheeled both beds over for me. I saw my daughter still wrapped in her light pink blankets while my son was in a light green wrap. He gently took out our son, smiling as he handed him over. He was sleeping with his little mouth open and his eyes shifted here and there as he moved them in dream.
"So, what're their names?" Ray asked. I looked up at Gavin and he nodded for me to continue.
"Well," I sighed out. "She is Eowyn Violet Free," I said, nodding to my daughter. I really wanted her to share something with one of my parents and since my mum and I have been closer than ever these past few months, I thought it only right to give her my mum's first name. "And this," I said, looking down to my son before glancing up. "Is Oliver...Michael Free. For you both." I said to Michael and Burnie who looked so emotional at the moment, I wanted to get a picture. "And for the question you asked yesterday, Michael, I want you, Burnie and Geoff to be their Godfathers because there is no way I can only choose one," I said and they gave me warm hearted smiles. "And for their Godmother, same thing. Bree, Lindsay, and Barbs...I want you to be their Godmothers." I said and they practically all squealed with joy.
"Group photo!" Barbs said and right when a nurse walked in she gave asked if she could take our picture. She nodded and soon everyone crowded around me, me holding Oliver and Gavin holding Eowyn. The nurse snapped the perfect moment.
"We'll upload the picture later," Lindsay said. "But for now, this is for us." She laughed and we spent the rest of the day taking pictures of the babies and enjoying each other's company.

"Gavin, need help?" I asked him as he tried to strap Oliver in his carseat that we had installed months prior.
"Um, give me a sec," He said from inside. I rolled my eyes and sighed, the warm Texas air making me feel better since inside was always cold. "Got it." He said and stepped out, smiling with pride.
"Did you make sure it was tight enough, but not too tight?" I asked, trying to peek around him to make sure they were both secured. "And that the handles are back?"
"Jane, I think I can manage a few straps and handles." He scoffed, crossing his arms. I looked up at him and raised an eyebrow, making him melt under my gaze.
"You sure?"
"Yes!" He closed the car door and I giggled as I hopped into the passenger seat. I was still a bit sore from the delivery, but I felt more energetic and glowing from bringing tow beautiful babies into this world. Gavin strapped himslf in before starting the car up.
"I can't believe we have two kids in the back." I said, turning around to see the backs of their car seats.
"Yeah and they aren't the Achievement Hunter gang this time." He snorted, making me laugh and agrree. When we made it home, we unstrapped them from their car seats and brought them to the amazing nursery the girls had done. I placed Eowyn in hers as Gavin did Oliver's across the way. When we closed the door half way, we both let out a relieved and tired sigh, but the smiles on our faces showed our happiness to know that we had two amazing children in the room behind us.
I still couldn't believe what had happened in the past year with me just starting a simple job at Roosterteeth. I found the love of my life, became part of a new family, and created my own children with Gavin. I was finally free from everything I had dealt with and I couldn't be happier.
The End
