It was now 4pm, and Kurt had just about had enough, deciding that a bath would be his last option, after that, well he didn't know what he would do. Grammy was keeping Elijah busy in his room, playing doctors and nurses, quite appropriate, given the situation, so Blaine was free to help Kurt into the bath and help his husband relax.

Kurt and Blaine had spent the past week finishing up their daughters' nursery, they had gone with a lilac dreams theme, with white matching cribs, lilac walls and 'sweet dreams' stenciled above their cribs. Kurt had started crying when he saw it, it was truly perfect, just right for his little girls. Part of him thought it was the emotion of that which had made him feel like this, but part of him knew exactly what it was.

"You okay baby? Is the water a good temperature for you?" Kurt smiled softly at Blaine, his husband really was the perfect man, always taking care of him and being an amazing father at the same time.

"I'm fine, still achy, but the warm water is definitely helping, although I must admit, my lips are feeling really cold, they could do with some warming up..." Taking the hint, Blaine leaned forward, sealing his lips against Kurt's, that was until Kurt let out a big gush of air.

"You know, I know you're sensitive from the pregnancy, but a kiss has never turned you on that much before!" Blaine looked at his husbands face, not seeing the usual smirk in place, instead seeing a look of pure panic.

"Kurt? are you okay baby?"

"M-My water just broke Blaine!" Blaine took a few seconds to register what Kurt was saying to him, before jumping into action.

"Okay, we can do this, okay, right"

"Blaine! get me out of the tub!" Blaine looked back at his annoyed husband, immediately rushing over to help him up, feeling Kurt's hands grip his as he helped him up and out seemed to ground him and he was reminded of exactly what he needed to do.

"Okay, dry yourself off, and go and lie on the bed, I'll go and speak to Grammy, and ask her to keep an eye on Elijah while we go to the hospital. I'll also call your Dad and Finn and fill them both in" He turned to go out of the bathroom, not before being interrupted by Kurt's voice.

"Blaine? Thank you" Blaine smiled at Kurt before slipping out to go speak to Grammy.

As expected, Catherine was perfectly happy to stay with Elijah, telling Blaine to keep her informed of any progress, similar conversations were had with Burt and Finn, all wanting to be kept in the loop and wishing Blaine luck with an in pain Kurt.

Walking back into their bedroom he saw a sight which broke his heart, Kurt was curled on his side, holding onto his bump, taking deep breaths he was clearly in a lot of pain. He rushed over to his husband.

"Kurt, it's going to be okay, now lets get you dressed quickly and to the hospital, I'll grab the bag"

He dressed Kurt quickly in sweatpants and a loose t-shirt, knowing he would only have to change when they got to the hospital. He half carried Kurt out to the car and secured him into the seat, all the time holding his hand in encouragement. Kurt was being eerily quiet, only making soft whimpering moans every now and then.

Pulling up at the hospital, he helped Kurt out again, and walked to the reception desk, where a very bored looking young girl was tapping away at a computer.

"Excuse me? Miss? I need to check my husband in, he has gone into labour" The girl looked up and took some details from the two of them, before getting someone to take them to the maternity ward. As they walked in Kurt had started having contractions every few minutes, doubling over in pain. They were shown into their own private room, and Kurt changed into the gown he was given.

"Hi guys, my name is Jenny, I'll be your midwife today, let's see how we're doing here!" Jenny was a chinese looking girl, petite with long black hair, she sort of reminded the two of them of Tina. She slapped some gloves on and moved to examine Kurt.

"Okay, well right now you're at about 5cm, so get yourself comfy and I'll be back to check on you a bit later, if you need anything, ring the buzzer right here okay?" She left and Kurt dropped his head back against his pillow.

"Great, looks like we're in for a long night" Blaine just grabbed his hand as another contraction hit him.

The next two hours were of a very similar fashion, Jenny popping in and out and Kurt's contractions getting closer together and more painful.

"God, I remember this hurting last time, but not as much as this!" Blaine was, as always being an amazing coach, and Kurt was listening to him as he guided him through each and every contraction, rubbing his back when he needed it, and getting him drinks when he asked for them.

Another 2 hours passed, and Kurt was in so much pain he was hardly talking anymore, Blaine's heart totally broke for his husband, he hated seeing him in so much pain, especially knowing it was him that made him like this. He wiped Kurt's forehead as another contraction hit.

"Bl-Blaine, there is a lot of pressure, I think I really need to pu-push, ahh!"

Blaine scrambled for the buzzer, trying his best to keep calm, but internally panicking, this was it, they were going to meet their baby girls very soon. Jenny came back in a couple of minutes later, checking Kurt and declaring he was now fully dilated and ready to push.

"Are you happy on the bed Kurt? or did you want to try the ball or another position?"

"No-ooo I want to stay where I am!" Jenny nodded, and lifted Kurt's legs up onto the stirrups that were attached to the end of the bed. Blaine stood as close as he could to Kurt, holding his hand and wiping his forehead, occasionally stroking his tense belly.

"Okay, Kurt, on the next contraction, I want you to push as hard as you can, it looks like baby number one is already starting to crown, so she won't be long!"

Blaine watched as Kurt curled himself up and pushed with everything he had, he whispered words of encouragement into Kurt's ear, telling him just how proud he was and how beautiful their girls were going to be. It felt like no time at all until Jenny was announcing that just one more push and the head would be out.

"Come on baby, you can do this, just a couple more pushes and we'll have our first daughter!"

"Ahh! Oh my god, holy shit! That burns!" Kurt pushed with everything he had and screamed when the head and then the shoulders of his daughter left his body, panting he looked down at Jenny who was picking his daughter up, handing him over to Kurt, who cradled his daughter to his chest.

"Hi, baby girl! Welcome to the world!" Blaine was looking down at his daughter as Jenny was fussing with her, making sure her airways were clear, his daughter was screaming a slightly gurgling scream, becoming clearer as Jenny cleared her airways. Blaine kissed Kurt's head, he couldn't believe he actually had a daughter.

"Do you want to cut the cord Blaine?" Blaine walked over to where Jenny was holding the scissors and cut his daughters body away from his husbands forever. He walked back to Kurt and he smiled weakly at Blaine.

"Okay Kurt, can I have her for a bit? I need to clean her up and get her dressed before number 2 makes an entrance." Kurt reluctantly handed her over, but kept an eye on his daughter to make sure she didn't go too far. He was already absolutely exhausted, he couldn't imagine doing it again.

Unfortunately for Kurt, his second daughter wasn't hanging around, he felt another immense pressure, and suddenly had the need to push again.

"Ahh! I think she's re-ready!" Blaine took his hand again as Jenny placed his first daughter in her crib, clothed and clean. Jenny positioned herself again and encouraged Kurt to start pushing when he was ready.

"I haven't got any energy left, please don't make me do it, Blaine, please!" Blaine tried his hardest not to lose it, he wanted to break down and cry at the thought of his husband being in so much pain, but he knew he couldn't.

"Baby, look at me, you can do this, you are amazing, and it will all be over soon, I promise"

Kurt nodded at Blaine's words, a new determination filling him, he pushed with everything he had, he hurt like hell, and used up every scrap of energy, but when he felt his second daughter leave his body, he felt a strange sense of calm. There wasn't a scream from her though, like her sister, everything was dealthy quiet.

"Blaine? Why isn't she crying is something wrong?" He watched in horror as Jenny pressed the emergency button above his head, flashing lights going off all over, his daughter was lay limp in Jenny's arms, she had obviously already cut the cord. A doctor and two nurses rushed into the room, taking her daughter from Jenny's arms, and beginning what looked like resuscitation.

Blaine was clutching Kurt, watching the doctors and nurses work on his baby, they were both openly sobbing at the sight, what if she didn't make it? What if they lost a baby? The thoughts swirling round both their minds. Kurt was hyperventilating, he couldn't lose his baby girl.

"Bl-Blaine?"

"Shh, it's alright baby, she'll be okay, she's a fighter, like us" Blaine wished he could do something, he felt so helpless, he did the only thing he could think of, he held Kurt close, kissing his hair, hoping upon hope to hear the sound he had wanted to hear.

After what felt like an eternity, they both heard the best sound of their lives, a sharp baby's cry rang throughout the room, Blaine kissed Kurt passionately.

"Told you she was a fighter, Kurt, she's going to be just fine!" Just then Jenny brought their second daughter over, and Kurt was grabbing for her before she could even get to them. Blaine turned around and picked up his other baby girl, holding them both on Kurt's lap, Kurt being a little bit too weak to take both their weight.

"You really scared us there, sweetheart, thank god your okay"

"Baby, just look at them, identical girls, they are beautiful"
