Broken Antler Fen So I give you ten thousand reasons to not let me go

2am chaos babies <3 gettin this one up early cuz he's involved! I'll tag in the babs either next post or after depending \o/

When Maia woke up that morning, it was to a sharp pressure in her sides. She'd been feeling more of the aches and pains of pregnancy as she actually (finally!) began to show, so her celebration was a little mixed. Honestly, even feeling more awkward than ever couldn't get her down! Because no matter how fat or sick or slow she felt (that first one was a thing) it was so absolutely worth it.

She thought she'd had another week at least, though. Quietly Maia nudged @Eljay awake, wincing as another cramp hit. Were they getting worse?

I think? Um, something's happening. Is... ouff. She inhaled, pausing a beat. Then her eyes locked on Eljay's with a very clear I don't know what I'm doing right now panic.
