Summary: While the other godlings are summoned to their epicenters, Erato and Bes prepare to welcome their new son.

Erato rubbed her belly as she watched Apollo and Mel leave for the mountain, and sighed.
"I hope they'll be OK. I wish I could go too, but with RJ due any day now..." She shook her head. Then, she wished she could gasp, as her belly clenched and became hard for a few moments.

"Make that... today," she corrected. Nervously, she looked over her all-too-human body. She was still mortal, and she was carrying a little god in her womb. That... couldn't be good, could it?

"Cal? Honey? Do you know where my phone is? We need to call Dr. Oram, and I mean now," she called to Bes.

"I'll bring the phone to her, sure, okay." He knew he was babbling a bit and took a deep breath to steady himself. The momentary pause seemed to work miraculously, though, and he straightened. Something deep within him unknotted and warmed as if this was not the first time for a delivery in his presence. Bes tried not to think too hard on it. It worried him sometimes when his godhood asserted itself.

Dismissing the thought, he took a few long, quick strides to arrive at Erato's side. He rested his free hand at the small of her back, big and warm and supportive. Then he handed her the phone. "You're on, sweetheart. He wants to ask a couple questions."
