Author's Note: Child birth, part one. Link goes through several degrees of panic and shock. For various reasons.
I've decided to split this child birth-part in two. It was gonna be a very long chapter otherwise. I've never given birth myself, don't plan on doing so either. Gotta say, I learned a lot during my research.

Chapter 14: Compared to this, he was nothing

Ivee sighed in annoyance at how little she could do in this state. At how bored she was. Bored, frustrated, chagrined. This not knowing when the baby would come was driving her crazy. She’d also had those annoying stomach aches all day long. Must’ve been something she ate.
Angrily turning around in the bed, she yanked away the sheet and restlessly started pacing up and down the bedroom. Link would probably have a fit if he knew that she was alone right now, but honestly, she didn’t really mind. That way, she could growl and grunt and sigh all she wanted without always the well meant, but much overused ‘it’s gonna be alright’. Besides, should anything happen, she still had Boy downstairs. He could run to the shop and warn her mum.
Nevertheless, she had to admit that she was relieved when she heard the door opening. Waddling her way towards the bannisters, she leaned over it, like a lady from upon her balcony who needed to be courted. “So, how was it?” she said.
Toeing off his boots, Link quickly ran up the stairs, longing for the warmth of his wife. “Give me a kiss first,” he said, a bit shaken. “I need it.” He pulled her close and took her lips in a hungry kiss, leaving her gasping for air. “That’s better.” With a sigh, he sat down on the bed.
“What’s wrong?” Ivee said, sitting next to him. “You look a bit... weird.”
“I had to do it in a jar.”
“It?”
“Yeah… For this duplication rune, they needed my semen.”
Ivee bit her lip, trying very hard not to laugh. “Your… semen.”
“Hm...”
“My poor baby.”
“Everything for freedom, I guess.”
It was only then that Link noticed that, once again, Amira was no where to be found. This wasn’t funny any more. “Where’s your mum?”
“To the shop, checking if dad is still alive.” They knew that Azu was still alive; he came playing with Boy every day. She saw the anxiety written all over Link’s face. “She’ll be back in just a couple of minutes. What are the odds that I would go into labour now-- Uh-oh… Oh no… Link!” It suddenly felt very hot between her legs. And wet. She pulled up her tunic.
Link’s eyes grew big while he watched the wet spot spreading at the inside of her thighs. “What did you do?”
“I didn’t do, anything, it’s started. Link, it’s happening.” Good thing she was already in the bed. “Go get my mum! No! Go get Purah! No! My mum first!”
“Your mum?”
“Yes!”
“Are you gonna be alr…?”
“Go!”
“Okay. Breathe!” He grappled for the Sheikah Slate on his hip, swiping and tapping like a madman. “Travel Medallion, where is it?!” He was effectively panicking.
“Link, stay calm! Surely, you can find your own village on the map?”
“I am calm, you stay calm! This Kingdom is so big! Ah, found it!” Before he disappeared in a haze of blue, bare footed and all, he quickly kissed her. “Be right back!”
“Okay!”
Literally two seconds later, her mum walked in. “Oh, I cannot believe this,” Ivee groaned. “Mum!”
“Hey dearie! Good thing I went home. That father of yours. You’d expect that he at least would be able to mop the floor a bit, but no. And the cobwebs on the ceiling...”
“MUM!”
Picking up on the urgency in Ivee’s voice, Amira stopped her prattling and hurried upstairs, where she found her daughter in wet trousers, huffing and puffing with a flustered face. “Heavens, Ivee! Has your water broken?”
“Yes!”
“Oh, I’m so sorry I wasn’t here while it happened. Where’s Link?”
“Getting you!”
“Dear me, I’ll never forgive myself for this.”
“Mum, can you do me a favour?”
“Anything, darling.”
“Can you keep the wallowing in guilt for later and can we do this first now?”
“Sure, of course. Sorry.” Still chiding herself under her breath, she rushed back downstairs to put a kettle on and get towels.
“Mum, would you stop it! This isn’t helping!” Ivee yelled, trying to get out of her wet trousers. “You’re not a bad mother, and you haven’t failed as a parent! You’re here now, you’re still in time!” A first wave of contractions started rippling through her belly. It felt like something was literally being ripped from her body. How many more of these? “Mum, can you get up here, please?” Ivee cried.
Amira hurried back up with the towels, dragging a stool along while she was at it. Picking up on the anxiety in the room, Boy had scurried from under the stairs and restlessly started whining.
“Careful with that stool!” Ivee shouted.
“Sure,” Amira said, though she was relieved when she had reached the top. “There’s no need to panic yet. In general, there’s quite a while between your water breaking and the actual birth. For me, that was the case, at least.” A bit weird how she was already having contractions, though. Spreading the towels under Ivee’s legs, she set the stool next to it and went sitting down, helping Ivee with her trousers and underwear. “You can do this, love. Remember, we’re the stronger sex, right?”
“Right. I wish Link would hurry up, though. Where are you going?” She reached out her hand when she saw her mother going back downstairs.
“I’ll go get a warm cloth, darling. The heat will relieve the pain,” Amira explained.
“Hurry!”
It took a minute or two for the water to get hot enough, but right when Amira returned upstairs, there was another contraction, and she was starting to get a bit worried. “Link will be here soon, darling. Breathe.” She opened the window just a crack for some fresh air, and sat herself down on the stool, placing the warm cloth on Ivee’s belly.
Ivee puffed out short breaths, and when the pain subsided again, she relaxed against the pillow, catching her breath for a while. At last, downstairs, they heard the door opening and closing. “He’s here. Link!”
Hasty feet stumbled up the stairs, and Ivee managed to squeeze out a smile.
“Link, go get Purah,” Amira said. “You can get there fastest, teleport there.”
“Already here!” she heard Purah shouting from down at the stove. “Sterilizing my stuff! Yes, I see you, Boy. Cannot pat you now.”
“Oh, well in that case.” Amira stood up to offer her seat to Link. “I’ll go get another stool. Sorry I made you go to the shop for nothing.”
Link sat down. “Oh, it wasn’t really for nothing. Pruce knows it too now.”
“Link! Stop talking and give me your hand,” Ivee groaned. She felt another contraction coming up. Felt like it was gonna be a big one.
“Okay,” Link said, making sure to give her his left hand, because he still needed his right hand. Once she’d taken a hold of it, he was sure that she wouldn’t release her vice grip. “You can do this.”
Ivee decidedly nodded. “I can do this,” she firmly agreed. Her face started to scrunch up. This was gonna hurt.“When you have to go fight… you have to… Ow... go through a lot… Ahn! A lot worse!”
A lot worse? Compared to this, he was nothing!
“Aaaaaah!”
Nothing! Nothing at all! “Ivee, I’m so sorry I did this to you.”
“So you damn well should! I don’t know when I’ll be able to forgive you for this! Puraaaah!”
Back downstairs, Amira informed Purah that, as she could hear, Ivee was already having contractions.
“Is there a lot of time in between?” Purah wanted to know.
“Not so much, no,” Amira said. “It might go quicker than we expected.”
“Okay. Well, every woman is different.” Grabbing her stuff, she dashed upstairs. “Coming, sweetie!”
With all the screaming and tumult and running around, Boy wildly started barking, thinking something bad was happening.
“Get him out!” Ivee bit.

Pruce stood leaning against the wall next to the door of Link’s house. Having heard the news that Ivee’s water had broken, he and Azu had made the trip there, so they could be there for her when it was all over. Although, if it would be anything like Ivee’s birth, it wouldn’t be for anytime soon. If Azu hadn’t insisted, he’d probably stayed at the shop for a bit longer. “You shouldn’t go in there now, son,” he said when he saw Azu reaching for the handle of the door.
“Why not?” Azu opened the door just a crack, so he could stick his head in, and soon found out why when he heard Ivee’s heart wrenching screams coming from upstairs. He quickly shut the door again, looking a bit perplexed. “Why is sis screaming like that? Is she in pain?”
“You know that baby that’s growing inside her belly?”
“Yes.”
“It’s coming out.”
“How is it coming out?”
Pruce cleared his throat. “Your mum has told you about a girl’s slit, right?”
“Yes.”
“Well… it has to go through that slit.”
Azu thought for a moment. “But isn’t a girl’s slit tiny?”
“Hm,” Pruce nodded.
“Poor sis. It’s gotta hurt.”
“Yeah.”
Suddenly, the door opened, and Boy was being shoved through it quite rudely. “Sorry Boy,” Amira said, quickly disappearing back inside. Pruce wasn’t sure she’d even noticed them there. With an indignant whine, Boy sat down, stupidly looking at the door. In spite of the drama going on inside, Pruce and Azu couldn’t help but laugh.
“Boy, let’s go play!” Azu said. Boy barked happily, running after Azu in search for a stick.

Purah was shocked when she settled herself at the foot of the bed between Ivee’s legs and touched her there to verify. “There’s already an opening! Ivee, have you been having stomach aches before this?”
“Yes, since this morning. They came and went.”
“Why didn’t you tell me?” Amira said.
“Didn’t think it was important.”
“Those were contractions already,” Purah explained. “It might go very quick now.”
“Good,” Ivee groaned, although her hope was quickly crushed when Purah said that a first birth usually takes longer.
“When did you lose your mucus plug?”
Ivee made a face. That sounded gross. “My what?”
“Earlier, when you went to the toilet and wiped yourself, was there any slime?”
“Oh… Oh yeah! Quite a bit, very early this morning. But I was still half asleep, didn’t give it much thought, I have to say.”
Purah nodded. “Okay okay, good to know.”
Tightening her grip around Link’s hand again, Ivee’s breathing quickened. There was another contraction. But Ivee powered through, undeterred. Link, her mum and Purah were here. She was in good hands.

“Dad?”
“Yes, Azu?”
“Isn’t the baby out yet?”
“No.”
“It’s taking a long time.”
Pruce tilted his head. He estimated that it was now about half an hour since they came here, maybe a bit longer. Which, for the birth of a child, wasn’t really that long. But Azu was still too young to understand that. “It might be longer still. Do you want to go back home?”
Azu sighed, cuddling against Boy, who was sitting on the grass. They’d already played with the stick, and then they’d gone around the village to let everyone know that the baby was coming. Now he was getting a bit bored. “I don’t know. I’m so excited to see the baby. Can we wait a bit longer, please?”
“Okay. But if it takes too long, I’m gonna have to go back to the shop after all. It’s bad for business if I keep it closed for too long.”
“Can I stay here then?”
“Will you be alright on your own?”
“I’m not on my own. I’m with Boy. You’ll take care of me, right, Boy?” They both laughed when Boy barked in a very responsible way. “Can I look inside again?”
“You can look inside,” Pruce said. “But don’t go up.” Just when Azu opened the door, they heard Purah shouting ‘Ten centimetres!’. He might stay for a while longer, Pruce thought.
