I nod. "I'll try." I squeal when I feel the ice. "Cold, but it feels good." I sigh, relaxing for a few seconds.
I can tell when Jace feels my tummy tightening, knowing a contraction is starting. "Oh hell. Let's breathe, Summer." He leads me, gently, soothingly. Not commanding or bossy, and it's just what I need even though it's killing me not to push. I pinch my thigh to distract from the pain in my vag.
Lucy looks up. "You did great, but we need you to do it through one more. We don't want to hurt you so we want to make sure it's cold enough it'll only feel like a pinch."
"Have a baby, they said. It'll be fun, they said," I joke. They all snicker and I grin.
"You're amazing," Jace tells me.
"Yeah, yeah," I say just before another contraction hits. "But I still want to cut your junk off."
"You enjoy it too much," he claims.
"Gross," Kadi replies.
"I'm not enjoying it now!" I groan, trying hard not to push, panting and breathing. Just panting and breathing as Jace instructs. Then something down therereallyhurts. "Motherfu-" The pain is quick, but sharp.
"There," Nana soothes. "All ready for you to push. Let's get that head out."
"From there it's a cake walk," Tera calls out from across the room. "Once the head is out, you'll give a tiny push and the body just slips right out."
"Gross," Kadi says again.
"Do you want to come see, Kadi?" I ask.
"What if I puke?" she questions.
"You won't. Come on over," Lucy calls. As Kadi approaches, Lucy warns, "There's blood and goopy stuff coming out too, but you can see the dark head of hair."
"Gross, but cool. How'sthatgoing to come out ofthere?" Kadi asks, concerned.
"Your Mama Summer's body will push it out," Lucy explains.
Kadi looks at it, unsure. "If you say so."
"How big is it?" I gasp.
Nana snickers. "It's normal sized. You're fine."
"Oh no." Time to push, and push, and push some more. Wowzers, getting the head out isn't easy.
"One more big push," Nana instructs.
I do as she says, giving it all I've got, which at this point isn't much, crying out as I do.
"Not only am I glad I like dick," Linc mutters, "I'm glad I have one too."
Ethan and Kennedy agree. Who can blame them? This is bullshit. Men need to do this, too.
Suddenly there's less pressure.
"Stop pushing," Lucy instructs.
"How's it going?" Dr. Mac asks.
"Nana's doing something with the booger sucker," Xan replies. He's fascinated.
"You can't see my wife's goods, can you? Because if you can, we're going to have a problem," Jace tells Xan.
