Saphir looked a bit panicked since this was the first time he was witnessing something like this in his entire. He held onto her, making sure she does not fall or strain herself. "Setsuna, did you just...?" There really was no need to finish his question, though he was a bit shocked. "Should I call for an ambulance?!"

Setsuna had done this twice before, and she certainly knew what was going on, and while she was still mortified she knew that it could not be helped. "I'm so sorry..." She replied, mid-grimace. "...please...just help me sit for a moment..." She managed to say, unable for the moment to notice how nervous Saphir was. She straightened slightly when the pain began to ease. "...it's alright...I have someone I can call."

Crystal Sailor Pluto Saphir helped Setsuna onto the sofa, making sure she was comfortable and well. "Do you need anything?" He asked, rather eager to help. "Who are you going to call?" He couldn't help but be curious about who this person might be.

"Yes. I need my cellphone, please." Setsuna replied as she sat comfortably, now fully relaxed with the first contraction fading away. "I plan to call a friend first, simply to let her know what is going on." She breathed easier now, a soft smile resting on her lips as she looked at Saphir. "Then I will call my doctor, Helen." She now began to notice that Saphir wasn't quite himself, which made her assume that this was his first encounter with the cycle of birth. "Forgive my observation, but you look rather stunned. It's rather endearing." She found herself chuckling lightly, covering her mouth as she did so.

Saphir just gave a light nod and went to fetch her cell phone. His face flustered a bit at her mention of him endearing. He lightly huffed and went searching for the phone. It would take him a couple of minutes until he stumbled upon it.

"Ah, wait!" Setsuna called after him, noting that she'd forgotten to tell him where it was. "It should be in my office, just around the corner." She found herself sighing as she sat there, now feeling a nudge from the child within her. "There there, baby boy." She smiled gently as she pressed her hand upon the area of movement, speaking to him softly. "So. You're ready then, huh?"

"Okay!" Saphir stopped in his tracks which caused him to trip, fall, and knock something over. He quickly got up and raced to her office to find that phone. Once found, he stumbled downstairs, limping practically. He handed her the phone and then rested against the couch.

"There will be no need to call an ambulance. Helen will be coming here for my home birth. Thank you for bringing my phone to me, Saphir..."Setsuna found herself ironically staring in shock towards Saphir and his nervousness. "...By the gods, I really am sorry about all of this." She stopped herself, thinking about how Tiger would likely be taking things a lot worse than Saphir.
She admittedly didn't really want to tell Tiger at the moment, opting to give herself a little time to see how she felt first.
She clasped her phone tightly as she pressed it against the cushion, another contraction hitting her suddenly. This time, she was tense, but a bit more relaxed as she focused her breathing. It helped to know that another would inevitably be coming. Once it subsided, relaxed fullly. She breathed, turning to pick up her phone, keeping her cool under the pressure.
She scrolled right to Haruka's number, putting her cell to her ear as she patiently listened for her to pick up.

Haruka had just finished filling her car up with gas. Right as she got into her car, her cell went off. She answered her phone as she strapped on her seat belt. "You rang, Setsuna?" The blonde asked coolly as she stuck her key into her ignition. Her Ferrari purred as the vehicle was started. "So, what's up?"

"Haruka." Setsuna replied with slight breathlessness, her deep cherry eyes lighting up at the sound, grateful that Haruka had answered. "...Haruka...I am in labor." She found herself smiling, becoming emotional as the realization began to register within her sharp mind. "...I'm going to meet my son today." Setsuna brushed her bangs out of her eyes as she fought back tears, trying not to sound emotional over the phone. "This is it....I." She turned away from the phone for a moment to clear her throat. "...I just wanted to let you know."

Haruka was speechless for a brief moment. She pulled out of the gas station and began driving carefully on the road while she was still on the phone. "Did you want me to come over, Setsuna?" She then came to a red light and waited until it turned green. "Do you need help over there?"

"Well truthfully...I could use another calm presence with all the nervousness around here. No offense to poor Saphir." She chuckled, glancing over towards the young man as she spoke. "Tiger is still busy, so I haven't even told him yet. But when I do...well..." She cleared her throat. "...he would be the most nervous of all."
Setsuna sighed, hoping to goodness that she wasn't calling Haruka at a bad time or inconveniencing her in any way. "I remember you saying you wanted to be here..." She brushed a strand of evergreen hair behind her ear as she spoke, looking down. "I'd like you to come by...even if it's only until my doctor shows up." She clutched the folds of her soft, lavender dress. "I suppose...this is my attempt at a sorry for excluding you from my life the last several years."

"Alright then, I'm on my way. And there is no need to apologize. It's water under the bridge." After, Haruka hung up her cell which right after the light turned green. The blonde stepped on the gas and drove as quickly as she could to Setsuna's place.

Setsuna smiled as she listened, relieved that Haruka had agreed to visit. "Thank you, I'll see you soon."
She scrolled through her phone after Haruka hung up, finding Helen's number.
"Hi Helen." Setsuna greeted her when she answered. "Yes I'm fine..." She blinked in surprise. "...why yes. How did you know?" She paused for a moment, listening intently. "...well you're certainly good. Yes of course. Alright then. I'll see you." She stated with a smile, then hung up, thinking that soon she'd hear Haruka at the doorbell.
"Saphir." Setsuna turned to him, motioning towards the door. "My friend, Haruka is coming over. Could you perhaps let her in when she arrives?" She asked him. "After that, why don't you go somewhere and relax, alright? I wouldn't want to stress you out any further. I know this has to be a bit frightening for you." She admitted, a slight blush of embarrassment blooming in her cheeks.

"Of course, I'll answer the door." Saphir was a bit more relaxed than just a few minutes before. He nod his head in response to Setsuna's other request. He waited by the door until this Haruka person arrived.
