Summary: Cuddy Cameron fic
Cuddy's POV
"It'll be okay baby… just hang on." I say stroking the soft hand that is desperately clinging onto mine.
If you had looked me in the eyes three years ago and told me this was how my life would end up, I would have had you detained in the mental ward for life.
"It's alright baby. You're doing great!" I continue soothingly as my hand is squeezed even tighter. I hear a cry of pain followed by heavy panting. I know my hand is probably bruised but I couldn't care less.
I hear something scratch against the door of the hospital room. I don't know what it is and I don't care. I just want her to be okay. I want them to be okay.
Dr. House walks in pushing the door open with his cane and the two doctors and three nurses look up at him before continuing their work. What's he doing here? I'm about to ask him but she squeezes my hand even tighter directing my attention right back to her.
"Its hard work isn't it Cameron?" House asks smirking at the girl on the hospital bed. Dr. Allison Cameron just glares at him.
"Should have had a C section like I told you! You know with all the pain killers" He says shaking his head before limping over to the end of the bed where the doctors and nurses are at work.
"I'd appreciate it if you left House!" I say without looking at him. I am too mesmerized by how beautiful Allison looks even when she's sweat-covered and screaming in pain. I continue stroking her hand.
"Aww… I just came to congratulate the happy family" He says putting on an innocent House face. "Aww… it has a big head just like its mommy… well its other mommy!" he says referring to Cuddy.
"One more push Allison" The OBGYN instructs.
"Well it has your eyes Cameron! That's a good thing. Who was the sperm donor you got anyway Cuddy? Knowing your taste, he was probably hideous."
I don't answer him. I just continue stroking her hand, letting her know I'm here. She grunts and I can hear the baby crying.
"It's a boy" The nurse says smiling.
Allison isn't smiling yet. I can tell right at this moment that she isn't particularly thrilled to be having twins. I've heard the second one is easier than the first though. I remember the first time I delivered a baby during my residency. It was… nerve-wracking. This is worse! She squeezes my hand tighter again and I know the girl is on her way out. Girls are always easier than boys.
But he's beautiful, our baby. He's stopped crying and one of the nurses has already cleaned him up and put him in House's arms. It's a funny sight, House with a baby in his arms. He really does have Allison's eyes. They are green just like hers.
My hand is getting numb but again I don't care. I wipe her forehead with my free hand.
"It's almost over now baby. Just hang in there!" I say looking into her eyes. She nods at me and forces a smile.
"Another big head!" House announces. He still has my son in his arms. My son… I can't believe I'm saying it well thinking it! We haven't decided on a name for either of them yet.
"And a girl!" The nurse says, cleaning up the baby girl. She's also beautiful. Again, with Allison's eyes. I want to cry, I've never been happier in my life. Allison releases her grip on my hand so she's now holding it loosely and she's smiling, genuinely this time. The nurse places the newborn baby girl on Allison's chest and she brings the baby boy and places him in my arms. I can feel a warm tear roll down my cheek.
I've never been happier in my life.
TBC maybe… I dunno… if you guys want me to continue I guess.
