Lorelei walked the halls of the Big House between her office and the infirmary, she had sent Levi an Iris Message telling him what was happening... She was in labor. Lori's body would tighten and send sharp pains throughout her back and pelvis, everything just felt horrid. She was not expecting the babies to be coming just so soon, her body really did rush through the pregnancy once springtime came along. She knew that it would be happening, but just not this fast. With Elysia it took three full months for her to come along, it was less than a month for the triplets. Maybe the number of babies was effecting it, Lorelei just hoped that all of them were safe and okay. As she opened the door of the infirmary, she kicked her high heels off and sung a sigh of relief, "Helllooooooooo..... Who is gonna make sure these three come into the world the way I planned?" Right away three Apollo girls ran over and started to help Lorelei into the pink and blue damask hospital gown that she had sewn in preparation for the babies. She would not be wearing anything that didn't compliment her style, giving birth or not. As soon as the gown was on, the three girls ran into a back room that had become a maternity ward, they were making sure everything was sterile and comfortable. Goodness Lorelei loved to be in charge, it was just where she belonged. Another large contraction kicked that thought in the ass, a slight squeak was all she could get out. She was not going to be screaming just yet. She started to walk and pace, these babies were coming eventually, but she wanted the labor to be smooth and fast. Although she started to have a feeling that wasn't going to be the case when the triplets all kicked about at once, fighting for first position. Lorelei loosened her ribbon around her chest, everything was painful and uncomfortable at this point, but she would have to survive, at least to Levi and whomever else decided to show up for the circus... Hospital Gown

The first thing that happened after he had gotten the Iris Message that Lori was going into labor, he fainted. But it was something so brief and it was almost as soon as he hit the ground, he was awake again. His heart was racing and his mind was spinning in a few hundred different directions at once. He picked himself off from the shore of the beach before dusting the sand off. “You’re in charge.” Levi stated to one of the Ares kids that in front of him. Levi sheathed his sword and threw his shield on his back as he started to run. The feeling of his legs pounding against the ground, sending shooting pain up his calves as he pushed himself even further.
His chest rose and fell easy, the breathing was easy, he was conditioned to run as fast as he could for long distances. He pushed against people, brushing against some and knocking others against the ground. “Sorry,” He apologized. “Lori is in labor, I have to go!” When two obnoxious Apollo kids blocked his path, wanting to know something that was the last thing on Levi’s mind, he sent a shock through their system. It wasn’t anything hard, just enough to get his point across. Levi lowered his shoulder as he barreled through the door of the Big House. He wound his way through a once well-worn path he used to take to the infirmary when he was younger. His boots squeaked against the floor as his beaten armor clanked against the wall every time he brushed up against a wall or a door frame. He accidentally knocked an Athena kid to the ground, apologizing in the same breath when shouting at people to make a hole so he could run. Those who didn’t heed his warning were barreled down and others flattened themselves against the wall to let the son of zeus pass. “So help me if you don’t get out of my way I’ll zap you! Lori’s in labor get out of my way!” He shouted, pushing another kid to the side.
He skidded to a stop as soon as he kicked open the infirmary door. Levi’s eyes were wide as he looked around for Lori. One of the Apollo kids pointed and levi crashed through the door. “Lori are you alright? Do you want some ice? What’s happening? What can I do?” Levi spoke super-fast, trying to not pass out. “Just breathe.. okay it’s going to be alright.” Levi tried hard to not pass out again but it was hard when he grasped her hand after stripping off his leather gloves. “is there a crash cart in here?” Levi kissed Lori’s head. “you’re amazing.”

Lorelei had been pacing her way around the infirmary for what felt like an eternity, all the pains had stop for a few moments, which was concerning her, but just as she was about to say false alarm and call it a great drill, the doubling over pain in her back and side happened, "Son of a fricken biscuit eating bulldog!" She leaned forward grabbing onto the nearest thing, which just so happened to be an Aphrodite camper visiting one of her friends who was silly enough to get curious about what was happening, the poor girl freaked and started to cry, as Lorelei squeezed her shoulder just to keep from screaming,.
As the pain subsided, Lorelei realized and attempted to do some of her breathing, but all she could do was say, "I'm sorry... Yeah, these things really are arses huh?" She half laughed, half almost cried. She would have to feel bad for the girl who now probably had some bruises on her from Lori's vice grip, but for now she just wanted the things that were fighting one another out of her... Now.
Putting her hands on to her lower back, Lorelei walked again, pushing her hips forward as much as possible to alleviate the pressure on her back, as she walked about she heard commotions coming from out the door. A slight smirk-smile came over her lips as the door flung open with her amazing man right behind it.
A hard laugh came from Lorelei as Levi ran into the room asking her some very rushed questions, putting her hand up and then lowering it slowly to attempt to calm him, "Baby, calm yourself. I am just fine, they are just assholes who wanna all fight for first right now." She laughed a bit more, "I don't need ice just yet, but you can just be here for me right now, and keep with this whole question thing it makes me feel special." She grinned a bit, before another contraction brought her over, making her place her hands on her very soft, black colored hospital bed, taking as deep of a breath as she could, her face grimaced hard until it subsided.
Letting out her breath, she smiled at Levi as he kissed her now slightly sweaty head, "I had a daddy corner put over there..." She pointed over at a very nice leather extremely padded recliner with an end table next to it. "I figured if we wind up here all night, one of us at least deserves to be comfortable." She laughed a bit and finally crawled into the very large soft bed, covering up. "I think they have run themselves out for now, we can wait a bit longer right?"
Another chuckle escaped as she laid her hair back, "So how many doors and people did you take down getting to me?"

There was a shout and a cry, Levi watched some poor little aphrodite girl run out of the maternity ward that had been set up. He could only guess at what had happened. There was a bit of laughter that levi managed to stifle before he was able to bring himself with a deep breath, to enter the ward.
Levi let out a sigh of laughter, trying to keep his nerves from becoming an emotional trainwreck. There had been many things that Levi had seen in his life and there had been things that he had done that he wasn't proud of, not once had he looked away nor had he showed emotion. He hated to see Lori in so much pain but at the same time, he knew that things were about to get crazy amazing up in this place. He had heard stories from other people that there had been dad's that had fainted or that someoen had gone into cardiac arrest (the latter being his great great granfather, acording to his mom) "It's nice that it's comfortable, but the bed looks amazingly soft." Levi gave a small laugh. "It seems that you have thought of everything, I got the greatest woman and the best soon to be wife ever." Levi said with an afermative nod.
He picked up a washcloth and ran some cool water over it. He wrang it out and went to dab Lori's head, he tried to wipe away the sweat from Lori's forehead. HE gently kissed her forehead once he wiped away the sweat. Levi never knew the pain that was associated with childbirth. He had watched the video in elementary school (he wasn't sure if they still showed it) but it wasn't the same as actualy being there. He knew that Lori was a strong woman and that she was the most important thing right now. He knew that he had to be strong too. Levi laughed as he pulled up a chair beside Lori.
"Six campers and five doors." Levi smiled sheepishly. "And I left Lorman in charge of my group for the moment. I hope nothing has gone up in flames just yet." Levi shook his head. Lorman was a good kid but he was still young and not quite experienced in keeping order with the other campers. Levi gave a smile before once more kissing the hand that he held in his. "would you like me to rub your back?" He offered.

Lorelei smiled, she really did love Levi more than even she could explain, he was kinda, smart, and so very strong in soul, heart, and body... He was just perfect in her eyes. Lorelei laid her head back and adjusted a bit, taking a soft, low, breath. He thought of everything, he really wanted to be there and help her, as he wiped her brow, she held back her tears of happiness, she almost lost it completely when he kissed her head, but she still somehow kept it together. "Please note this now, I love you so much... Enough to push out three mini yous at one time."
She chuckled a bit as Levi admitted what he had taken out on his way to her, "I am glad you made it here in one piece, even if you left parts of the camp not in such a way..." Another laugh as she patted and adjusted her pillows again. "I am sure that the camp will be just fine for however long this will take, its our time to not be worried about anything or thinking about anything else." She smiled, leaning over and kissing him softly.
Shaking her head, "I feel fine right now, I just want you here holding my hand, I hope that the Apollo kids get back here soon with that stuff that Fiona made me to use instead of an epidural. I made her promise it would not make me in any shape non-sober" She laughed again, just then another moment of pain, she grabbed and squeezed Levi's hand for the entire time of the contraction.
