Jace knew what that translated to roughly, it meant it wasn't in the right position and that was likely why Jace was currently unable to move it any further despite his best efforts. A look of fear came over him, what were they going to do how could they fix this and move it into the right position? Could they even get it int' the right position or would Jace end up delivering it breach. That was dangerous, and a lot of hard work that took energy he wasn't sure he had at the moment. Anther pain gripped him and he tried to breath threw it giving little pushes instead of hard ones sense he now knew it wouldn't be doing much good. "What do we do?"

"Stop that push please Jace, i know it's hard.... just breath, concentrate on other things, yea look at me, pinch me, DON'T PUSH AT ALL." Jareth said with an urgency taht's rare for him. It would make matters even worse if Jace happened to got the arm into the birth canal already. He clutched Jace's arm tight to break his concentration. "I know you are holding back already, which is very good, yes hold back even taht little pushes." Jareth could see Jace squirming around, whimpering from having to rule in his urges. It would be a tough one ahead of them. "I have to move the baby externally, work with me here please..." the vampire almost sounded pleading as he cupped Jace's face and froced him to meet eyes with him.

Jareth's voice surprised him and Jace forced himself to breath relaxing once the pain had let up, he didn't like the sound of what Jareth was getting at, he was pretty sure he knew what the man was getting at. He groaned feeling anther pain starting up they were coming quick and he forced himself to breath threw this one to before meeting Jareth's eyes "O-ok.. just do it.." He mumbled

[bhdire8]

Jareth took the tube of.oil and poured a handsome portion on his hands to numb the pain slightly. Moving.along Jace's belly, he held a hand over the shoulder of the baby and the other on his bottom. Making use of the precious few seconds between contractions, he attempted to turn the baby to align his body with the birth canal. It was hard and in order to have a firm hold on the baby, he had to press in deep into Jace. It was to be expected to have bruises all over Jace by the time this ended.

[secretsparrow]

Jace cried out when Jareth began his body tensed he tried to stay still and not pull away but it hurt and he wanted to shove the vampire off of him. "S-stop, hurts!" Jace whimpered his body was already sore from having delivered one child this wasn't helping any his body was tense he wasn't even sure if it was working or not he just knew it hurt and that anther contraction was coming quickly.

[bhdire8]

"I'm so sorry live this is tbe only way." Vampires simplg dont sweat, they didnt have the need to, but now Jareth was feeling phanton beads forming on his forehead. He had to make use of the previous small moments before the womb tensed up entirely to get the baby moving. It was too soon though, that the next contraction hit, and he had to stop without a firm grip on the baby anymore. Releasing his hands, he saw Jace gaping like a fish out of water from the pajn of another kind as he endured the contraction. "I'm so sorry Jace.... this is the only way." Jareth felt his eyes burning. It waz such a foreign feeling for him now. He hadnt been ferling this strongly for a long time

[secretsparrow]

Jace almost thought he might pass out at one point the pain was so intense and between Jareth trying to change the position of the baby and the contractions coming every few seconds he didn't get a break from the pain any longer. As the contraction let up Jace leaned back and got his breathing under control the contraction was ending and he braced himself for Jareth to try and move the baby again. He knew it was necessary but he was shaking and he couldn't help but cry out.

[bhdire8]

Jareth moved quick, once again locating the position of the baby, a little disappointed to see it returning to its original position after the interruption of the contraction. He grit his teeth as he started his manipulation again, pressing deep into Jace as he pushed and pull. It was difficult. Jareth wasn't aware but he hadn't checked Jace's opening yet. If he had, he would notice there was a little hand sticking out of Jace's cervix already. The baby was bound to born with his arm passing at the same time with the head.

[secretsparrow]

Jace groaned loudly struggling to not fight against Jareth he needed to fix the position he thought it might be working Jareth might have almost had it but anther contraction was starting Jace began gasping. it was torture, he needed to push there was pressure he had to get it out, until he remembered it wouldn't matter if he pushed, he wouldn't make progress anyway and he continued to gasp arching his back slightly until the pain let up.

[bhdire8]

Jace was throoughly drenched by sweat at this stage but Jareth must continue. He let Jace recuperate for a precious few seconds while he poured another portion of oil on to his hands for what hopefully should be the last time. "Sorry babe... I am so sorry babe..." Jareth could only mutter over and over again when he found the head, that's thankfully much lower than before, and the baby's hips as he moved it again. The angry red marks on his belly was painful looking already. He continued to press in, muttering in his heart for the baby to coorperate as well.

[secretsparrow]

"Ahhhhh!"he dug his nails into the floor it hurt he couldn't help but cry out he knew Jareth didn't mean to hurt him, he was helping Jace knew that, somewhere but it wasn't registering at the moment he only knew that this hurt, the pain was constant and he needed it to stop. The next contraction slammed into him and he groaned arching his back against it.

[bhdire8]

The last pushing from Jareth semeed to have done the trick. the head had tilted enough that the remaining shifting coudl be done by contractions alone. Jareth let out a sigh of relief, but his heart soon clenched tight again seeing Jace heaving his belly high up, combating the contraction in a painful writh. He magcially cleaned his hands and just hold Jace gently, awaitng for the contraction to once again wane.

[secretsparrow]

It did after a few moments and he finaly got a moments rest now that the baby was close to the right position. Jace looked up at Jareth and tried to give him a small smile, he could feel at least that it wasn't sideways anymore. "I ... love... you." Jace said quietly as he caught his breath.

[bhdire8]

The weakened look of Jace was painful to look at, especially when he still attempted to give Jareth a reassuring smile. Jareth hugged Jace gently. Lifting up his body, he put Jace's head on his shoulder letting him rest. "This should do..... no more painful pushings. Next up, you try to push down. If it still felt strange, let me know...." He said even though he was praying ardnetly in his heart for this to be the one. Jace couldn't take the pain much longer, not with how weakened he already was from the pain.

[secretsparrow]

Jace nodded and when the next contraction took over he pushed, the baby made progress so he didn't stop, that and he wasn't sure he could any more he had to push he needed to. When he was feeling was the arm coming down with it's outstretched arm. Of course he was unaware of that and looked to Jareth "Feels... different..." he was still making progress so he didn't see a reason to stop, and he didn't want to, he wanted it out anther contraction moved threw him and he pushed again.

[bhdire8]

Jareth was too focused on monitoring the shape, and thus the position of the baby that he didnt check on Jace's cervix. He frowned when he heard Jace's comment but decided to wait till this contraction ended befote he would check. He didnt want to ingerrupt with Jace's focused push, he seemed to be moving things forward alright, with the baby descending as evidenced by the belly getting into a normal prolonged shape. "Push first, and i would check later... good job babe."

[secretsparrow]

The contraction ended and he leaned back closing his eyes and trying to relax between contraction He could defiantly tell something was different now as it move down. He groaned the contractions were quick and vary intense when they came over him Jareth wouldn't much time to check if he was going to.

[bhdire8]

Jareth could tell Jace was about to say something but this next round was hit fast, and his attention was distracted with how Jace was shaking. He had been sweating so much Jareth urgently summoned another vial of supplements for him to drink down, suspecting it to be a case of low blood sugar. He would have to replensih his energy quick with the pushing only just resuming.

[secretsparrow]

Jace managed to down it between pain, it helped a bit at least he didn't shake as much with the next push he began to feel the burning pain returning he hesitated gasping and arching his back just slightly. "ugggghh burns!" he gasped it wasn't any easier the second time if anything it was almost worse.

[bhdire8]

This little break gave Jareth the chance to check.on Jace's.progress and that was when he found out. At Jace's bottom, a little arm had made an appearance already. Jace had been in even more pain as he was now.pushing a head and an arm out. It would also demand a more powerful push from Jace. The awkward position the baby was coming out in would make the pushing less effective. He didnt know how to break the news to Jace. Falling into silence, it was the first time he didnt know how to update Jace after a checkup.
