Life seamed perfect. Everything was as it should be. They were make millions, she was the head of woman's medicine and the was the Head of the ER for Rittenhouse, the best hospital in Philedephia. He was 24, she was 23. They had been married for about 4 years and had a three year old daughter, now she was eight months pregnant. Wait it gets better. Within those eight months she has only gained six pounds, and she has never... ever woren maternity clothes. For them Life was perfect, or so they thought.

"Hey" she said as she entered the kitchen

"Hi." he said back. "You sure woke up late."

"I was tired." she answered "Is Jess awake."

"It's 1, Dana. Of course she's awake. Not only is she awake but she has also taken a nap!"

"Okay, calm down."

"Aren't you late for work ?"

"Work! I forgot about work. I had to be in surgery this moring." she said

"Pregnant woman... they're not good for anything."

"Shut up." she yelled as she walked toward the door.

"Dana." he called after her "You may want to get dressed first. You can't wear a towel to work!"

"Nice point." she said and ran upstairs. Nick thought he should do her a favor, so he called the RWHC. Lana answered

"RWHC, this is Lana."

"Hey Lana. Sup ?"

"Where the hell is your wife ?" he asked

"She's gonna be a little longer. Give her like an hour and a half ?"

"Yeah, sure."

"K, Lana thanks." she hung up followed by him. A few minutes later Dana came back. "You don't have to rush. I called and and told them you'll be there in a hour and a half."

"Thanks, Nick." she said and sat down next to him. "How the hell am I going to tell Robert I have to take a maternity leave in two weeks? "

"Here's an idea. You can tell him your eight months pregnant !"

"I did that last time !"

"Well there is no other way to tell him."

"What if he noticed, he may have realized it by now."

"You didn't realize it until last week! How the hell is he to have noticed. Be real, Dana! "

"Where's Jess?" she asked with a sigh

"She's ..." he was inturupped

"Mommy!" Jess ran in and jumped onto Dana. "You slept longer then I did."

"Yeah, what have you been doing? "

"Daddy and I swam in the pool." she answered with a excited tone. "He was teaching me how to swim. "

"Did you learn? " she asked

"No. " she sounded disappointed

"You'll learn. Don't worry." Nick tried to comfort her. "We can try again later." he offered

"Okay!" she yelled excitedly and ran off.

"I'm gonna go now." she announced as she got up.

"Tell him." he called after her. Half an hour later she was pacing back and forth in her office. Lu walk in.

"Dana, what the hell is wrong. It's 2 and you just got to work."

"I'm 35 weeks pregnant, Lu." she filled Lu in.

"Again? Dana! How can you not realize any earlier?"

"I don't know how to tell Robert."

"I'll do it for ya."

"No, then he'll hate me more than he already does."

"Whatever you say. Here's a sugustion. Tell him that about to pop. That should do it!" the second she finished her sentance, he walked in "Speaking of the Devil." she whispered loud enough for Dana to hear.

"I'm not sure if the two you realize but I don't pay both of you to stand there and talk about Goerge Clooney! Get back to work!" he yelled

"Some of us can't work inthe condition that we're in. " Lu tried dropping the bomb.

"What! " he yelled

"Dana's husbent knocked her up, she can blow any second." she exploded

"Lu." Dana yelled

"So your married? " he asked

"Yeah."

"Same father as your last kid ?"

"Yeah."

"To bad. You work until you 'blow'. Then you can have two weeks off."

"That is illegal." Lu stated loudly. "She has three months off according to the law. If she goes into labour at work because she couldn't get time off, she can sue the hospital."

"Fine, leave. You have three months. See ya' then." he stormed out.

"Lu." Dana whined

"Your welcome."
Two weeks later Nick and Dana had their second daughter, Alexa. She was born a few weeks early at almost 4 pounds.
Four months after that.

"Jess, get up." Dana tried at wake Jessica. It was seven in the morning. "You can sleep more at your grandmother's house, come on."

"No." she whined "Leave me alone." she refused to get out of bed. Dana pulled the covers off of her and carried her out of bed. "Put me down."

"Babe, please. I'm gone be late. "

"Have you fed Alex, yet?" she asked

"Daddy is doing that as we speak. "

"I don't wanna go. I wanna stay home, today."

"Jess, I have to be at work in 30 minutes. You can't stay home."

"Don't go to work. Don't you love me."

"You know that I do but I can't not go. It's very important."

"I hate you! You never think of me." she yelled and slammed the door. Dana signed and walked down the stairs. She walked into the kitchen where Nick had just finished feeding Alexa.

"I'll take, the kids to my mother's. You'll be late if you do."

"Thanks."
He dropped them off at his mother's house and left for work. Everything was going fine. At about 12, Lana recieved a phone call.

"RWHC, this is Lana"

"I need to speak to Dr.Stowe."

"All right. One second." she walked into Dana's office. "Phone call on line 3."

"K, Lana. Thanks." she said as Lana left, she picked the phone up. "Hello?"

"Dana, she gone! Jessica, she... she was kidnapped."

"What? " she was in a state of shock.

"I... I odn't know what to do."

"Calm down, Lenore. Tell me what happen."

"This guy... he broke in and locked me in a room while I was changing Alexa. He broke thing, I heard Jessica yell. I couldn't get out of the room to do something. He took her, Dana. "

"What? " she reapeated, she wasn't able to process what she was being told, she didn't want to process it.

"I'm sorry." Lenore said in a faint voice.

"I'll be there in a few minutes. Call the police." she explained and hung up. She begun looking for her keys in a panic. After a few insuccesful minutes she went to Lana's desk. "Have you seen my car key."

"Yeah, you were blocking Lu, so I moved your car. Here. " she handed her the key.

"Cancel everything I had for today."

"Why, Dana. What happen?"

"Jessica has been kidnapped."
