Per House's instructions, I turned our daughter on her side to finishing clearing her airways, House helped me clip the chord, and I rubbed her vigeriously telling her, "I got you, baby. Baba's got you." Finally she let out a healthy cry making both Sara and I breath easier.
"Be helpful and grab a blanket." I told Reg, before turning to Sara sharing a smile completely ennamered saying, "She's beautiful." Both of them, Sara and our daughter, were like two angles on earth.
Both of us had tears in our eyes, as I took the blanket from Reg, while Sara smiled, "Ok, this makes it worth it." Kissing my arm she added, "Your already the best Baba ever...you brought her into the world."
Only Sara would have just given birth by herself with her dumbass boyfriend and two drunken bastards in the room complicating the matter, and pass the credit onto someone else. "So you forgive me for doing this to you?"
"I love you for it," Sara said as her body began to tense up again, face tightening with the urge to push returning. She demanded, "Now go do it again."
"You're doing the work here, sweetheart." I told her. "I'm just catching."
"Always knew you were a catcher," Reg laughed. Even though it was a slight at me, it made Sara giggle through the pain. That I was glad for.
"Sit your drunk ass down." I directed Reg taking Ember from Sara so we could deliver our son. "Right there where I can see you to hold my daughter."
"I'll hold her." House offered. "I'm fantastic with babies."
"Don't..." I told him watching Sara;s body folding as she pushed again.
"If you drop my child, I will kill you," Sara grunted at Reg who rolled his eyes.
"Has everyone forgotten I have done this before?" He grumbled.
"Sit...." I demanded before taking a deep breath with my head on Sara's knee ready to do this again. "Come on, Oni-temi, you can do this." I kissed her knee.
The second birth went much smoother. As soon as our son came out, I repeated everything I did with Ember, proud when Talon let out a blazing cry. "That's my strong boy," I said clipping the chord and wrapping him in a blanket with a hand on him looking at Sara.
"Moniferee - Oni-temi, Awelewa-mi." I breathed to my beauty, my love. I reached out to touch her smooth face before I realized all of the birthing matter I still had on my hand as I told her, "I love you."
Sara took my hand anyway returning my love saying, "Moniferee Aiya-mi."
Sara POV
It was so nice to have him there by me. As much as I appreciated him stepping up and doing what needed to be done, holding onto a dildo instead of his hand was not exactly how I had envisioned my labor going. I closed my eyes, drained, trying to figure out exactly what I had done to deserve a very drunk doctor and a drunken ex-husband as part of my birthing team. Karma was kicking my ass for something.
Hearing the crack fill the room, I saw Ewan had finally decided to grace us with his prescense, "Looks like I alread missed the party." he said with his casual smile, "I came as quick as I could from the otherside of the world." he told Blaise before turning his eyes on me, "You're mother says hello."
I was trying to process that comment, leaning into Blaise as he came to lay beside, having used his wand to clean up the bed and himself, Ember in his arms, my one and only baby boy in mine when House through in his two cents, "I get chastized for being drunk but he gets to sex up your mom in chile and gets a free pass. There is no justice."
That got my attention, my eyes snapped up from Talon, looking at ewan, hopng I had somehow heard that wrong, "Sex up my what?"
He laughed, shaking his head, neither actually denying or confirming House's assumption, "Now, now... no one said anything about that."
I sighed, looking over at my little beauty resting so peacefully in her Baba's arms, "I don't want to know"
My doc of an ex was completely oblivious to the beauty of this moment, piping up an "I do"
Pretending I hadn't heard him, I glanced back at Ewan, asking "Can you check the babies?"
Blaise leaned back, seperating from me slightly to allow Ewan the room to work, we watched as he checked them over, finally annoucing, "They're healthy, and beautiful."
I gave him a soft tired smile, letting Blaise take Talon into his other strong arm, cradling both of our babies as I lay aginst his chest, tuning out Reg and House as they began another round of "Henery the 8th", and Ewan moved to the now empty perch between my legs to birth the placenta. The contractions built in my body once more, but this time Blaise was there to kiss my head, and talk soothingly through the pain, his eyes adoring as he looked between the kids and myself. When Ewan stood, saying it was done, I saighed in relief, ready to focus on nothing more than my children and the man that I loved.
Taking Ember into my arms, I snuggled closer to Blaise, glancing over to ask Reg quietly, "Can you get Brailee so she can meet her brother and Sister?" I wanted my baby girl there with me, in my arms, while we welcomed the rest of our family into the world.
He smiled, clamping his mouth shut and apparating out, returning within a few minutes with my smiling baby girl, "She was already awake, it's like she knew they were coming," Reg said with a soft smile, placing her gently on the bed with Blaise and I.
Curning her up in my other arm, her pretty black baby curls resting on my arm while her eyes danced over our newest editions, her tiny finers moving softly over thier skin, she blinked those big brown eyes, saying sweetly, "Baby mine"
I laughed, looking up at the gorgeous man who made my world whole, "Now my family is complete"

Welcome To the World Talon and Ember Zabini
I don't know how long we laid like that, before I finally drifted off to sleep, content with the knowledge that my World would still be there when I woke up in the morning. Morning came quicker than I was used to, the soft cries of my hungry babies waking me instinctively. Blaise helped me sit up, using his experience with Bliss to assist in getting the breast feeding process started. I hadn't been able to do it with Brailee, but I was looking forward to making that connection with my twins. Ewan and I had devised the plan of mixing breast feeding with pumping so the babies learned an early familairity with the nipple. He promised it would make it easier to wean them, something we planned to do around 6 months. It hurt worse than I thought it would, bringing tears to my eyes, but being able to snuggle them close and knowing that my body could provide the nurshment they needed made it worth it. Blaise reclined behind me, his arms holding them and me, made it that much better.
The twins were fed, Blaise was getting them dressed, Brailee was up once more playing with her toys on the floor, and i laid in the bed in a comfy pair of sweats, still feeling the drain of the labor on my body, when Peni and Marcus arrived with Deni and Bliss. Marcus looked over the babies with a smile, leaning down to kiss the top of my head with a sweet, "Good job momma" that left me smiling. If only they knew who the real hero of the night had been.
I laughed as Bliss took one look at the new babies, and moved onto the floor to play with Brailee, completely disinterested. Deni took the opposite approach, wanting to help Blaise find thier binkies, checking to see which blankets were the softest for thier smooth skin, being everything a helpful big brother should be. I shared hugs with Peni, thanking her for her offer of help as my gorgeous man made his way over to the bed, Deni climbing in quickly to sit at my side while Blaise placed Ember gently into his waiting arms. Already a pro, Deni kissed her head softly, smiling at her like a proud little papa. I snagged Talon from Blaise when he moved to Deni's other side, smiling at the care that Deni was showing his baby sister.
Peni and Marcus couldn't stay long, they had thier own litle ones to get back too. I smiled at Peni's reasoning that miss Bliss in her attention loving phase right now was probably better off at home where there were tons of people to give into her demands. Deni was over the moon to be allowed to stay and help out, and as tired as I was, I was thrilled too. I knew Brailee would love to have a playmate and Blaise would love the extra time with his son. I was just happy to see our families belinding together so naturally.
The day was a flurry of activity, Ab stopped by to fawn over his new grandbabies, arms already ladden with gifts. Reg came, a grin on his face as he talked about how he'd helped bring the kids into the World. I rolled my eyes, remembering clearly just how much help he'd actually been. Uncle Albus was a surprise, but he came too, bearing bag upon bag of M&M's, "I was told these were your treat of choice" he said with a sparkle in his blue eyes that made me laugh. The crew from the Nightstand came in with a completely inappropriate gift basket of goodies left me giggling my thanks. Peni returned once more with Nevi and Jaki, walking behind Deni who took the time to tell him everything he had already learned about his brother and sister. It was a day of laughter, joy, and celebration, my little ones being greeted by everyone who would be around to love them.
By the end of the day, I was wiped, but in that happily exhausted way. Kelsey put the little ones to bed, Blaise tucked Deni into his room, while i pumped so there would be bottles for the babies that night. I climbed into the shower with Blaise, enjoying our first moment alone all day, relaxing against him as the water worked the soreness from my body, smiling when he picked me up and carried me to the bed, tossing me one of his shirts to put on. I laughed, pulling him in with me to snuggle, my head over his heart as we lay together. Looking up at him through my lashes, I whispered, "I love you, Baba" Knowing there could be no one else for me but him.
"I love you too, Mommy," he said with a smile, "I don't know if I can ever remember being this happy," he said with a light kiss on my lips.
Laying there as he drifted off to sleep, my fingers playing in the curls of hair at his belly button, I thought about the the lonliness, the fear, the heart ache that had always been my life, thinking again over the idea of karma. I placed a kiss on his chest, my mind toying with the thought that all of that had been so I could get to this, life's way of making sure I'd earned it. I'd banked away a lifetime of pain and hurt, so I could have a forever of love and laughter. Seemed life a fair trade to me.
