"Not so sure the movie will last too long, the storms started to knock out power" Lukas makes his way into the bedroom before he grabs a thicker coat before coming back out. "Just stay inside" He leaves again as quickly as he came in.

[Lovebite]

"Even better reason for you to stay."Eric said hopefully, smiling when he came back out, but frowning when he saw the coat,"You're kidding me, lukas. It's basically a blizzard out there!"He huffed, here he was with two one year olds and nearing his due date while his goddamned boyfriend goes out to play hookie, he cursed and dropped the cookie box. Groaning and shaking his head, kissing Jacob's head and sitting him on the other side of him before he went to push himself up to his feet carefully, huffing and kneeling down to pick up the dropped snacks.

[018Luxio]

Nearly an hour after Lukas left the power goes out. Within the next hour the boys are getting restless and the apartment is getting cold without any way to warm it.

[Lovebite]

"Goddamnit."He muttered and tried bundling the twins up in their winter wear for now, checking his phone for battery,"Alright, fifty percent. Sound's good."He nodded and slipped on his shoes, looking around as he grabbed the boy's diaper bag then pulled on his own coat,"Let's take a trip, you guys."He smiled at them, despite the stress he was doing good, his back and feet were hurting as always now that it was nearing the end of his pregnancy, but he could deal. As he picked up the twins and slung his bag over his shoulder, heading out of the door to the car where it would at least be warm for them.

[018Luxio]

Eric gets the boys in the car and gets it to crank before turning the heater on full blast, trying to warm up the car as fast as he could. Everything around them was pitch black, the whole block had lost power, probably the whole city.

[Lovebite]

"Well, this is a pickle, isn't it?"He huffed and sat back in the driver's seat, turning himself just a bit and adjusting the mirrors so he could see both twins,"You guys warm?"He asked, reaching back and stroking their hair away from their faces then handing over their sippy cups,"Maybe we could make it to Mister Chris's place. Cause Daddy has literally no idea where the hell your father is."He sighed, rubbing his face and sending off a text to Lukas and then dialing up Christopher.

[018Luxio]

Eric doesn't get an answer, the phone going to voicemail after ringing a few times. He and the boys sit in the car for a good 30 minutes. During those 30 minutes Eric had began to feel faint irregular pains, just brushing them off as Braxton hicks contractions.

[Lovebite]

"Hm."He tilted his head a bit, then leaving a short voicemail,"Hey, it's me. I'm with the boys, of course- But i was wondering if we could come through? The powers out on our end and I guess a full tank of gas will make it till morning, but I think we all would like it much nicer in a bed, even though they aren't complaining."He looked back at the twins, Jacob was making drawings in the window fog and Logan was already dozing off."So, yeah, if your phone isn't dead, at least give me a call so I know you aren't bleeding out or something in an accident and at least all snuggled up in your bed alone, without me. I'll try later."He hung up and sat back, sighing and turning on netflix for his phone,"Here Jake."He said,"Don't wake your brother."He gave his phone over so the son who was still wide awake could watch cartoons, as he pushed the stuff on the passenger seat down to the floor and put up the armrest as he put his feet up. Closing his eyes and sighing as he rubbed his belly, getting comfortable for only a moment until he was slowly becoming too hot, glancing back at the boys as they were now both sleeping and he sighed. Turning down the heat and taking off his coat and winter gear, as he sighed and leant forwards against the steering wheel now,"Backs killing me..."He muttered to himself.

[018Luxio]

Eric continues to sit there, not really having no other choice. The longer he sits there the worse the pain becomes. Both boys were still asleep and it didn't look like the power was coming back anytime soon and it even felt like the storm was getting worse.

[Lovebite]

He tried calling Chris again when he identified the pains now as contractions, though it went to voicemail again and he hung up with a soft groan, rocking back and forth in his seat,"Come on, please. Not now."He gripped the wheel, closing his eyes and breathing through another pain,"Goddamnit all."He cursed and let his head fall back against the headrest, he couldn't give birth here, he just couldn't. He tried dialing Lukas this time.

[018Luxio]

There was still no answer on Lukas' end either. With the contractions steadily getting worse though his water thankfully hadn't broken yet Eric eventually decided to chance it and see if he could make it Chris' house. He had only been there once though, when Chris got him pregnant the first time. As he pulled out he was the only vehicle on the icy road, barely able to see anything infront of him, even with the bright lights on.

[Lovebite]

Eric kept a tight grip on the wheel,"Okay... Okay... I got this..."He nodded, pumping himself up as he kept his eyes on the road and the car as steady as he could, humming through the close pains and turning on the radio to smooth jazz to see if it would help distract him or at least relax him. As he was slowly getting wound up, his nerves on edge as he tried to keep his son's, himself, and his unborn safe,"Let's go, let's go,let's go."He tapped his foot as he stood at a red light, one of the longest damn red lights he had ever sat through, he thought before he pulled off again.

[018Luxio]

Eric really had no idea why he was stopping at the red lights, there was no one else on the road, just him, the stupid idiot. With how slow he was going it took him a lot longer to find Chris' house than he would have liked but at least he did manage to find it.

[Lovebite]

Eric sighed out a breath of relief, sitting back again and groaning a bit louder than he meant to, hands going to his belly to rub it slowly then down between his legs, his water hadn't broken yet. That was just a really strong contraction, he panted in relief before pulling on his scarf, hat, and gloves again as well as his coat to go check if the doctor was actually here. Moving to get out of the car, making sure the doors were unlocked for him to be able to get back in. as he held his coat closed against the wind and waddled his way over ice and through thick blankets of snow to make it to the front door and bang on it. "Christopher! Chris! Open up!"

[018Luxio]

Eric doesn't get a response at first, not able to really hear anything over the found of the wind. Soon enough though he can hear the faint sound of barking from inside but still the door didn't open.

[Lovebite]

Eric kept banging, then looked for a doorbell and started spamming that, though soon caught off guard when another tight cramp gripped him and he fell against the porch railing to his knees with a loud groan. "Chris, please..."He shook his head, grasping onto the railing and trying to keep himself at least half way upright despite the now intense pins he was suffering, eyes half open as he felt his water break now.

[018Luxio]

When he did finally manage to get back to his feet he waddled back to the car before slipping in the passenger seat. He does manage to somehow get his coat off before he braced his legs against the dash.

[Lovebite]

Eric was shivering bad, wet and cold wasn't the best option but at least it was warm in the car for now and the twins were resting contently while he moaned low with his feet up on the dash and his belly poking out of his sweater between his thighs, he glanced around for something to bite onto so he wouldn't scream. This baby was big, just like any of his others, he blamed it on his diet and mostly on the two men in his life who could have fathered it as he bit onto his thick leather wallet hard, growing low and as quietly as he could as well as still being muffled by the wallet in his mouth. As he beared down slow and steady now.

[018Luxio]

It took at least 10 minutes of pushing before he felt any sort of change though the pressure in his pelvis wasn't going away any time soon as he continued to push.

[Lovebite]

He knew this was dangerous, giving birth in his car with a snow storm raging around them, alone with two sleeping one year olds, but it seemed he couldn't count on anyone but himself now. Lukas and Chris were never around and he basically raised his two boys on his own, now he was trying to give birth to his third child by himself. Eric wiped his face with the back of his hand, gulping in short breaths of air and whimpering some as he lifted himself up just a bit, bearing down again as hard as he could manage. Gritting his teeth against the wallet in his mouth and sobbing through his nose, tilting his head back and grunting with another long hard push, gasping and dropping the wallet when he felt the head starting to crown, reaching for it again but it had fallen to the floor out of reach. His thighs twitched and he grasped for the handle above the door, gripping it and adjusting his footing again as he reached down and rubbed the bit of head stretching him slowly open as he groaned loudly now with his teeth grit together.
