It was in the middle of the night though that Sans noticed Lorraine moaning in pain. "Sans…" she moaned in pain. "Something's wrong…"
“lori!? ok- i’ll call alphys!” He had her number on speed dial at this point due to previous worries and baby questions. While calling her he put a robe on for Lorraine and for himself.
“come on, come on- al! hey, something’s up with lori, are you at the lab? good, good, we’re on our way.” He picked his mate up, shortcutting to the lab. “it’s ok baby, al will help.”
"Hurry Sans! It feels like I'm going to burst!" She cried.
“alphys!!” He barked, carrying her to a bed.
The lizard came scurrying in, trying to fix her glasses. “W-what’s going o-on?!”
"Al-alphys!!! The babies… I need them out! They're coming out!!!" Lorraine cried in desperation.
“O-oh! O-oh my! I-isn’t it too early..?”
“doesn’t matter, just do it!” They’d be fine… they were eggs, not humans or monsters. The rest of development probably would happen outside of Lorraine. He took her hand and squeezed. “she’s workin on getting them out, i just need you to breathe with me, ok?”
Lorraine nodded painfully. Both she and Sans breathed in and out till she felt like her body was ready. "Aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!!" She squeezed his hand like a vice.
Alphys was already there with a large basket with towels.
“I-it’s crowning, y-you’re doing g-great!” Very soon Alphys was cleaning the first of eight eggs. It was light brown with darker brown speckles.
For the next seven hours Lorraine gave birth to the rest of the seven. Some looked like the first, some were light blue with light brown speckles, and some were a mix of those. Alphys hurriedly put them in an incubator and then helped clean Lorraine off and help put her on a proper bed. An exhausted Lorraine wanted to see her babies, but she was so tired. As soon as her head hit the pillow she was out like a light. Sans on the other HAND had to put some ice on the sore appendage. But once he covered her up with a warm blanket, he wanted to see his kids.
After checking and double checking that Lorraine would be ok, he had Alphys take him to the incubator. He was mesmerized by them and a deep rooted instinct to protect nestled itself within him.
He wondered when it would be when they hatch. Or if they could have an ultrasound on an egg. Was that possible? One way to find out.
“al… can we have an ultrasound on the eggs?”
She looked at Sans, startled. “O-on the… we- we can t-try..”
He nodded. “yes please, it would be nice to let lori know that they are still nice and healthy in the eggs.”
Alphys nodded herself, going to fetch the necessary equipment.
Alphys carefully smeared the gel on the eggs and grabbed the probe, her clipboard and pen and a large sharpie marker. She probed them one at a time, took pictures with the machine, and carefully labeled the eggs 1 through 8. She marked each gender and then showed Sans.
“four boys… four girls… evenly?” His grin stretched wide. He couldn’t wait till Lori woke up and saw these!
He also noticed that Alphys marked down which one looked like a monster and human. Again. All evenly.
“al, you’re the best, you know that?” Sans told her as he noted that two males and two females were monster. Meaning two males and two females were human. Even again.
Alphys blushed and waved a dismissive hand while trying and failing to hide her smile.
He looked at her with a tender smile. “seriously. you don’t know what this means to lori and i. We truly appreciate it.”
"O-oh~ don't worry about that Sans. I-It's s-still early in the morning, you s-should be asleep with L-Lorraine." She said as she shooed him away.
“heh. thanks al, good night.” He laid down with his mate and his mind wandered to his hatchlings as he slipped off to surprisingly peaceful slumber.
