Just the physical contact alone made Bailey feel worlds better. It was comforting feeling Sid's strong chest supporting him and warm hands rubbing his aching belly. He focused on the breathing techniques he learned in class. He focused on the singing bowls music coming from his phone. He focused on Sid's encouraging whispers in his ear. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad.
Two hours passed and contractions only started coming four minutes apart, lasting for almost a full 60 seconds. Sid tried encouraging Bailey to change positions as much as possible. They cleared the floor as much as they could, putting bags and things in the overhead storage cubbies, and sort of dancing together. It was like awkward prom dancing. Bailey kept his hands on Sid's shoulders while Sid held firmly onto Bailey's aching hips. The couple swayed back and forth. Bailey even tried doing the hula hoop motion again.
A contraction gripped his body. Bailey groaned with sweat dripping down his curves and pressed his forehead against his husband's chest. "Thanks for not --aaahn-- trying to take pictures of me like this."
