Friends by Ambrosia







Shye shook her head and was about to argue, when she felt the waves of her first contraction hitting her.
“Ow,” she exclaimed loudly. Billy looked over at her anxiously, as he watched her face scrunch up in pain. After a moment, Shye took a deep breath.
“How was it?” Billy questioned nervously.
“Not too bad, actually,” Shye said.



Five hours later
“Fucking hell!” Shye bellowed, as an agonizing wave of pain washed over her body. She really thought she was going to die from all the damn contractions.
“Shye,” Billy said in a nervous tone, “You know the baby can hear you.”
Her head jerked towards him, and Shye shot him a death look.

“Oh, you think that’s cute, don’t you?” she spat out. Billy cringed, realizing he had said the wrong thing. Shooting an embarrassed look to the nurse, he admitted, “It’s our first.”
The woman smiled at him knowingly, “Don’t worry. Next time around, this will be a piece of cake.”
Shye snorted, “Next time! Yeah right!”

Billy smoothed Shye’s hair back from her forehead in a loving gesture. She glanced up at him pitifully.
“I lied,” she whispered.
“It’s okay, darling,” Billy said, knowing she was overwhelmed by the pain.
“No,” Shye replied, “I lied when I said I didn’t want to be pregnant anymore. I’ll be pregnant for the rest of my life, if all this pain would just stop!”
“I know,” Billy said, leaning down and kissing her on the forehead. Suddenly, another contraction hit Shye, and her bad attitude immediately returned.
“Get off me!” she snapped, “Can’t you see I’m busy?”

Billy quickly took a step back. No point in upsetting her anymore than she already was. It was at this moment that the doctor walked into the hospital room.
“And, how are we doing in here?” she asked with a cheerful grin.
“Horrible!” Shye screamed.
Dr. Rogers just picked up Shye’s chart and began to examine it.
“You did want a natural child birth, right?” she asked, a twinkle in her eyes.
“NO!” both Billy and Shye hollered out in unison. Dr. Rogers burst into laughter.

“Don’t worry,” she said, “Your epidural is on its way.”
“Thank God!” Shye breathed, “And, just to let you know, I’m a pharmacist, so I’ll know if you give me some wimpy drug. I want the strong stuff!”
“It’ll be strong,” Dr. Rogers promised with a smile.

The next morning, Shye was lying in her hospital bed, happily crunching away on ice chips. Hearing a knock on the door, she looked up with a welcoming smile.
“Hey, dear,” Julie called out, walking in the room with Dom at her heels, “How are you feeling?”
“Fabulous!” Shye announced.
“Epidural kicked in?” Julie questioned with a knowing smile.
“Yep,” Shye confirmed, “And, those things are a Godsend. I can’t feel anything below the waist. Go ahead, try and touch my leg. I won’t feel it!”

So, Dom being Dom, he went forward and began repeatedly poking Shye in the leg.
“Feel that?” he asked.
“No.”
“That?”
“No.”
“How about this?” Dom questioned, completely entertained by the game. Julie laughed at how ridiculous the two were being.
