The Newest Family
Kat stood working in the command center when her world started to spin, she grabbed the console to keep her footing and Cruger noticed this instantly.
"Kat, are you okay?" he asked
"Yes, I'm fine, just a little dizzy"
"Last I checked, dizzy meant you weren't fine" Cruger said walking over to her.
"I'm fine!" she insisted then started to walk away, got four steps and fainted… Cruger nearly had a heart attack.
"Kat!" he exclaimed and ran to her side.
He picked her up and carried her to the infirmary, it was the only thing he knew to do.
The word spread fast that Kat had fainted in the middle of the command center and soon hit b squad and Sydney Drew.
"I can't believe it, Kat… fainted," she said, "I never thought her the kind to faint"
"Well, we don't really know what happened" Jack said, "Something may be really wrong with her"
"Come on mom…" Kathleen whispered, as she looked out on the poring rain "you have to be okay!"
Sky sighed as he looked over at his wife, he knew that she was worried about Kat, and he hoped that Kat was going to be okay.
'I wish I knew what I could do to help my wife' Sky thought as he knew that it was hard for Kathleen to hear about their being something wrong with her mother and there being nothing they could do about it.
"Guys, we've got to think about Kathleen here, nothing the two of you have said are any help to her… remember she is Kat's daughter" Sky said
Everyone went silent, they hadn't thought about how this affected Kathleen. She was Kat's daughter, and of all of them, she was the closest to Kat, for obvious reasons, and the most worried about Kat's current condition.
"Cadet Tate, Cadet Manx, report to the infirmary" a voice called over the intercom
Sky looked at Kathleen and sighed then approached her.
"We're needed in the infirmary," Sky said
"I'm coming," she grumbled
Sky and Kathleen arrived to see Cruger sitting in a chair by himself.
"Commander, what's going on?" Kathleen asked
"Kathleen, I believe that is for your mother to tell you… Sky, may I speak with you," he said
"Yes sir" Sky said approaching his commanding officer… at first glance Sky would have said Cruger was scared, upon looking further into his commanding officer's eyes, he came to realize he was petrified. Sky had never seen Cruger like this before, and he knew this was serious.
Kathleen entered the private portion of the infirmary where her mother was resting.
"Mom, are you okay, you gave us a really good scare earlier…"
"Yes, Kathleen, I'm okay" Kat replied, understanding that her daughter was worried, for good reason "well, what happened today means a miracle has happened to me… years ago, I was told I could never get pregnant again… and Kathleen, I… I'm pregnant"
Kathleen felt a knot develop in her throat; it made perfect sense when Kathleen thought about it, her mother had been, well in a word, temperamental the last few days, Boom and Bridge getting the brunt of it, as they were the only ones close enough, and goofy enough, to annoy her.
"Whoa…" Kathleen sat back in her chair… this was a lot to process, too much for her to take in one sitting that's for sure.
"Are you okay?" Kat asked
"Yes, mom, I'm fine, I just need to let this soak in a few seconds…" Kathleen replied
"I know, that's a lot for you to take in… don't worry, I'm still a bit shocked myself"
"Of course you are… so am I" Kathleen sighed "Mom, if you don't mind my asking… who is the father of this new baby?"
Kat sighed, it would come out eventually, might as well be from her
"Cruger" Kat replied simply
