The Baby Day!
One Month Later
"Never thought I was even gonna see ya so damn nervous about anything."
Logan's amused sentence caused Victor to glare up at his young brother. "What the hell do ya mean, runt?"
With another long puff, Logan walked in and sat next to the older feral. "I'm talkin' about them, those fidgety fingers." another mischievous smile on Logan's lips. "This nervous side doesn't suit ya, big guy."
"It's uncontrollable, Jimmy." Victor grumbled, trying to get into the damned hospital gown given by the nurse. "My Mate, she's in there, endurin' all that pain just so she can give birth to our Cub. What if...somethin' went wrong?"
The deep agitation written on his brother's profile made Logan smirk again. His hands voluntarily proceeded to knot the straps. "Ya know, I always thought that...both Rose and Ruth preferred you about everything when it came to comparison." Victor's gaze abruptly narrowed and looked back to his brother when both of his Mates' mentions came up out of nowhere.
Victor spun around with a questioning look. "Jimmy, why are ya-"
"Lemme finish, Tomcat." the runt growled around the cigar between his incisors. "I know Ya don't like ta talk about this but still, I need ta know. Rose never said it, but i could smell it. She always wanted you to court her, not me. But in spite of having the same feelings for her, ya never responded to her silent desires and let me take your spot in her life and the same shit happened with Ruth when-"
Logan's cigar was suddenly snatched out of his mouth. Victor took a long drag before exhaling a cloud of cigarette smoke in Logan's face. "Come straight ta the point, Jimmy boy. Ain't ya happy I dropped those two bitches inta yer lap instead of gettin' inta their pants?" the pissed off growl tightened Logan's jaw immediately but he kept his composure because he could understand that Creed wanted this conversation to end as soon as possible so he could go back to his Mate.
S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S
Logan let out a sharp exhale and asked his main question. "Look all I wanna know that why did ya kicked two golden chances of yer pathetic life aside and waited so long fer a teenaged Drama Queen?"
"Well, as far as it was about Rose," Victor gave the cigar back to Logan before replying. "Ya were always a better match fer her human mentality, Jimmy. Unlike me and Sabertooth, you and yer animal were always on the same page when it came to chose a human as yer Mate. And as far as it's about Ruth, years later when I saw ya have a hard time gettin' over Rosie's death, I decided to find ya a girl who would never die on ya—plus Ruthie's one of Chuck's leather girls." Creed growled. "It was her ya got ta be a goddamn superhero because of."
Logan nodded. "Wolverine was immediately attracted to her, and she always responded to his call but deep down inside..." he pulled the thick stick out and released a stream of smoke before scowling at his brother. "I always knew that you were her first choice as a Mate, and I'd call ya a liar if ya said you hadn't felt the same about her."
Victor momentarily glared back at his brother before revealing something he'd never told anyone else before. "Would ya believe me if I said that I'd lived another long life where Rose was killed by our good-fer-nothing father, Ruth was my whore, ya and I were arch-enemies until ya died as a pathetic old man after yer recently found daughter and that frail yer callin' s teenaged Drama Queen, was the only good thing I had left?"
It took Logan's flabbergasted face a really long minute to respond this time." Y-Ya...ya kiddin', right?"
Smirking, Victor shook his head. "Then let it go Jimmy boy, ya can't understand why I waited so long and chose only her as my Mate."
"Dad? Uncle Vic?" Logan's recently found daughter, Laura opened the door of the changing room. "Mom wants you guys to hurry up."
Victor stood back up and smiled at his ever-grumpy neice. "Tell yer mom we're just comin', knives."
S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S
"What the hell took you so long?!" Ruth's low growl was enough to express her worry for her friend in the delivery room.
"Hurry up, Claire needs you inside." Claire's parents also almost scolded him.
Creed hastily approached the group standing outside the door and growled at Ruth. "Your goddamn Mate, he needed some stupid answers and-"
"Victor?"
Victor huffed and glared over his shoulder at his brother with a really annoyed look this time. His Mate needed him in there, and his brother's goddamned questions weren't ending.
Logan just smirked at his reaction and walked up to him. He bored his eyes into the taller feral's. "I don't know what ya mean by all that nonsense ya just said in there, but fer the record, I honestly think that the teenaged Drama Queen is a real gem because she's ready ta put up with yer shit fer the rest of her life." a mutual smirk touched the siblings' lips.
"Now go inside and tell her to work a little harder. I'm sure it ain't that difficult."
"It ain't that DIFFICULT?!" Claire's super pissed snarl from inside caused everyone's ears to stand up. "Ruth, grab his balls and squeeze them hard! Then he's gonna find out how difficult it is!"
Everyone else but the poor Wolverine chuckled softly.
Logan glared at his brother. "She's a goddamn spitfire."
Victor grinned back. "Ya have no idea, runt."
S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S
Oh yeah, I'll tell you something
I think you'll understand
When I'll say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
With a sharp expire, Victor opened the door gently and stepped in. Among the swarm of the best doctors and nurses of the entire Canada, Victor's wandering eyes finally found his Mate fighting the bravest fight of the world. A tired smile crossed her sweaty face when she saw her Mate approached her. The time they'd been eagerly waiting for for the past three months had finally come and she wanted to go through it with her Mate on her side and her hand in his, just like Victor did for his 'cave friend', the Cougar two months ago.
Oh please, say to me
You'll let me be your man
And please, say to me
You'll let me hold your hand
Now let me hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
"Hey," Victor bent over and kissed his exhausted Mate's forehead. "Yer doin' really great."
"Thanks." Claire smiled weakly. "I'm trying my best."
"But that's not enough, darlin'." Victor spoke softly as he took her hand in his and squeezed gently. "You gotta give it one more stronger push."
A little bit relaxed, Claire tightened her grip around his clawed fingers and nodded shakily. "O-Okay."
And when I touch you I feel happy Inside
It's such a feeling that my love
I can't hide
I can't hide
I can't hide
"OH MY GOD! I can't do this!" Claire screamed her lungs out this time. The pain totally unbearable for her.
"C'mon, kitty cat!" Creed stroked her dampened hair. "If ya can give the big bad Sabertooth hell about everythin' without tremblin' like a dry leaf, it ain't no big deal before that."
Claire threw Victor a slaying glare. "That was the shittiest encouragement I've heard, Victor Creed! Maybe I should give you '7 days outside the bedroom' punishment for that!"
Both Victor and Sabertooth shouted together. "NO/NO!"
Yeah, you've got that something
I think you'll understand
When I'll say that something
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand
I wanna hold your hand.
"The baby is almost out, Mrs. Creed!" the doctor said excitedly. "Just propel a little bit more and it'll be over."
"Grip my hand tighter baby," Victor whispered against Claire's reddened and swollen temple. "Yer my strong girl, ain't ya? Collect all yer strength and give it a strong push."
"Oh god! VICTORRR!" Claire released the loudest scream of her life when she gave the final shove and the baby's entire body was pushed out. A loud cry of their newborn filled the room.
"Congratulations," the doctor lifted the tiny life covered in vernix and other body fluids with a victorious grin. "It's a handsome and hefty boy!"
S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S:S
Teary-eyed, Claire looked back to her Mate and smiled widely. Grinning like a fucking Cheshire cat, Victor kissed her softly. "Ya finally did it, darlin'."
"Time to see the little fella." their kiss was broken by the nurse's sweet chink. Her hands extended the white bundle of terrycloth toward Claire but she abruptly shook her head, making Victor's eyes narrow.
"What are you-"
"You have desired this baby more than I did, Vic." she signaled the nurse to hand the baby to him. "So you deserve to see his face before me or anyone else does."
That one sentence took Victor's breath away. All of Victor's emotions rumbling in his throat crossed his face together as the nurse placed that tiny package of bones and flesh in his arms. His clawed finger hesitantly wrapped around him. Victor let out a small breath and finally looked down at his little copy in his arms. His hair, eyes, nose and tiny pale yellow claws on every finger were just like his. His little nose twitched to recognize the scent hovering above him and when he did, his little Richard gave an unexpected, reflex smile.
Totally overwhelmed by this beautiful moment, Victor looked back to the girl, no! Woman he had seen this big day because of. Jimmy is right, she's the only good thing he'd earned in this pathetic life of his. She is the only woman who's ever bothered to understand him and love him as he is. All the adjustments and all the compromises, they all came in her account but she never raised any damned complaint. He always believed that the good things like her aren't made for the monsters like him, but she never let him feel like one. He contemplated his Mate's beautiful face before bringing their child to her and saying something she'd earned after the brave display of her physical and mental strength.
"I love ya, kitten."
