Summary: Mal is finally having her baby, and Hades is sure that he is going to have an aneurysm. A sequel to "Daddy's Little Girl."


   Hades paced back and forth outside, his arms crossed over his chest as he strode back and forth down that horrid, dreadful, terrible hall. Every once in a while, he would stop by the door hopefully and wait for a moment, but it never did open with any news.

The suspense was killing him. How long were they going to take? How long did it take to give birth to a beautiful, bouncing bundle of joy?

Hades had came as soon as he had received news that his daughter was having her baby. He had seen her for a few minutes before a bout of labor pains came upon her and the hospital staff had disrespectfully ushered him out. Of course, when Mal wasn't looking, he had lit his hair afire and silently threatened them.

Needless to say, they treated him much more nicely after that.

He was sure he was going to wear a ditch into the floor. It was almost too much for him to bear, imagining his baby in pain as she struggled through her intense bouts of agony.

"Would you like some potato chips?" the goofy voice of that stuff-shirt his daughter married suddenly sounded off. Hades whipped around to stare at the boy, his eyes narrowed as he mentally turned the greasy bag into blue flames.

Hades barely held back the smirk at the expression on Ben's face. The boy looked terrified, and he dropped his gaze to the floor, settling for stuffing his face with the nasty food that he had just offered to the enormous man.

Hades began pacing again.

Against the god's will, he couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the boy. Even after Hades had been so mean to him throughout this entire ordeal, Ben was still nice and offered his disgusting chips to him. The kid really wasn't so bad. And it wasn't like it was his fault. He had been waiting outside that cursed door for as long as Hades had been.

So far, Mal had only allowed Evie inside, and judging by Evie's occasional yelps that were perfectly timed with Mal's chilling screams, she must have gotten the lucky job of being the hand-holder and encourager.

Hades had to give it to Ben. He handled not being allowed to come in rather well, even though the father generally stood inside with the wife while she was in labor. He never even got mad when Mal had wanted Evie instead of him on the premises that she was comfortable with Evie witnessing the birth.

Hades knew how his daughter worked. It was more likely that she didn't want Ben to see her pain. She trusted Evie just as much or more than Ben in some ways, so she got the bluenette to be her support.

Jay, Audrey, Jane, and Carlos hadn't come yet. Jay was most likely wrestling with Audrey, trying to drag her out of her castle and away from her beauty sleep and makeup to go to the hospital. Jane and Carlos were several cities away and they had packed their things and were on their way back as soon as they heard Mal was going into labor.

Adam and Belle were somewhere in the hospital. Hades believed Belle had made some excuse of attending to some work that they needed to do there, but the blue-haired man knew better. Belle was just trying to keep Adam away so he wouldn't go all beast again. Something about Hades must have made old Beast man a little bit angry.

But despite all of the drama involved with the other people that were supposed to be there and that were there, it was driving the god absolutely nuts not to hear any news of how it was going at all. He had practically memorized by now how many tiles were in the hall. He would have gone outside, but he was terrified that she'd have the baby and he'd miss it.
