Walking over to where Rory sat on the birthing ball, Elisa knelt down next to him to give him a lingering kiss. "You're doing beautifully love. We need to keep you up as much as we can to help bring the baby further down. Do you want to try standing in the shower for a bit? I'll get in with you." she offered to which Rory nodded his agreement.

While Josie settled into a chair to watch some tv while they waited, they both began to undress; Rory shedding his over-sized shirt and Elisa down to only shorts and a tank top before stepping into their walk-in shower. The pulsing water felt especially relaxing on his back and for a long while they lingered there; the two of them swaying together between contractions only for him to stop and let out a low moan as they hit their peak.

It was during one of those peaks that she could sense something was different; his moans seemed to be growing in intensity and judging from the way his fingers were digging into her back as he hung from her neck, something had definitely dropped.

'Love, are you alright?' she asked, although she had an idea of what his answer would be already.
