In reply to: Skeeter 's message, "inside" on 08.03

(Books might not have warned him about the emotional stress, but the commander had certainly tried earlier. It wasn't the easiest thing in the world to do.. going through the birth of a child and remaining emotionally detached from the man who had helped to create that child. As soon as he rose to his feet she missed his nearness, and sighed as he walked over to plug in his ipod, knowing just how stressed he was feeling. This was a lot for a man with his condition to handle. Maybe not quite so difficult as it had been for the commander when Shay had given birth.. but in a different way it was just as hard on Skeeter. She wanted to soothe him, but was so damn exhausted that all she could do was close her eyes and listen to the soothing sound of the piano playing in the background. She followed his footsteps even with her eyes closed, and knew he was at the window. Quietly she willed Ryan to hurry his little butt up and get out before one of them lost their mind with the wait. She drifted off for some time, rousing as Skeeter started to talk from the window, her head turning slowly so that she was gazing at him. Her features were serene despite the situation, she had reached a sort of inner calm about it all. His wry smile made her smile, and she shook her head a little.) You just want to tell him that your baby is coming first. (She knew about the bet, even if he hadn't said anything to her about it.. she wasn't deaf. She knew that Kyrian was pretty sure that Haylie would pop first, but that was only because Kyrian was paranoid.) It would be nice if they did just fall out. (She mused, her hand rubbing over her belly as the skin tightened again. Her gaze flicked to the clock, it had only been ten minutes.) Next one's coming. (She muttered, seconds before she tensed, her head rolling back. It would be nice if these things passed more quickly, since they were coming closer together. But part of her mused that they just seemed to be closer together because they lasted so much longer. Without meaning to, she made a little whimpering noise as the pain passed, settling back with tears swimming in her eyes. She was being as brave as she could through this.. but without drugs it was going to be a tough ordeal.)
