Two years after Voyager came home.
It was a cold evening in the middle of October in Indiana. A fire was roaring in the fireplace at the Janeway
family home. Kathryn Janeway was relaxing in her favourite chair, which use to be her father's favourite chair.
While a month old baby slept in its bassinet.
"Kathryn, I am making coffee want a cup?" called Her mother from the kitchen.
"Sure, please." Kathryn called back.
Kathryn noticed the baby starting to stir, she sat up from the chair and leaned down to rock the bassinet.
"Shhh.. My little one.. Shhh.. Ed." and sure enough Edward fell back into a deep sleep.
As Kathryn leaned back in her chair Gretchen came out of the kitchen.
"How's little Edward?" she asked Kathryn
"He's ok.. Don't think he likes his mother drinking so much coffee."
She replied with a smile.
The two of them laughed and sat silently for a few minutes enjoying their coffee when the front door flung open.
Edward stared to scream. As both women moved, Kathryn to pick up Edward and Gretchen to see why the door
flung open.
"Shhh its ok Edward its ok." Kathryn said as she rubbed his back and walked around the room trying to come him down..
She thought to herself,
Who the hell has the nerve to do that. Before she could finish that thought Phoebe
comes walking in.
"Sorry the wind took the door right out of my hand." As she gave her mom a hug.
"Its ok, you just woke Edward that's all." Gretchen said to Phoebe.
Phoebe walked into the room where Kathryn was starting to get Edward to come down.
"Hey Kath, how's little Edward? Why isn't your husband here too? you both were suppose to be here to spend some time way
from Starfleet." Phoebe asked her sister
"He will be here, he got stuck with a last minute meeting." She replied
Kathryn put baby Edward back in he bassinet were finally he had settled down and gave her sister a big smile and an even bigger hug.
"It's so good to see you Phoebe. How are things?" Kathryn asked her sister
"It's only been a months since you last saw me, but things are good, I opened my art studio two weeks ago and got 15 students already." She laughed.
They sat by the fire and talked about the art studio and Kathryn's promotion to Admiral, and the weather.
KNOCK KNOCK..
"Phoebe could you get the-" Gretchen started just as Kathryn said,
"I'll get it, its most likely Chakotay." Kathryn walked to the front door and started to open it when the door
flung open knocking Kathryn hard in the head and throwing her to the ground unconscious.
"Kathryn!" Yelled Chakotay as he slammed the door shut causing Edward to scream again.. Phoebe wanted to help Kathryn but
knew she had to calm Edward first. Gretchen came running out of the kitchen when she heard Chakotay yell her daughter's name.
"Oh my god no Kathryn. Here Chakotay." Gretchen handed him the medical tricorder she kept in the closet.
"Oh my head, what happ--.." Kathryn began before losing concussions again.
"She has a concussion and it some swelling. She needs medical attention now!" Chakotay explained.
"I will contact her doctor." Gretchen said
"Hello Gretchen Janeway. What's wrong?" The EMH questioned with a look of worry on his face.
"Is the baby ok?" He said with hurry in is voice
"Its Kathryn she needs help now!" Gretchen said and terminated the link.
As Phoebe finally got Edward to calm down she came out into the hallway with Edward in her arms to see if her sister was ok.
One Year after Voyager got home
All the debriefing have finally ended and the former crew of Voyager can finally enjoy life back on Earth.
"Captain Kathryn Janeway, I am so happy to be doing this." Admiral Owen Paris was changing Kathryn's pips to being admiral pips.
Admiral Owen Paris gives Kathryn a big hug and then Turns to the crowd.
"I am please to introduce to you Admiral Kathryn Janeway!" With a big smile on his face he began to clap.
Admiral Janeway also with a big smile on her face and a few tears running down her cheeks started down the stairs from the stage and began to walk around the room hugging and shaking hands with former crew and other admirals. She stopped once she got to Chakotay and Seven who were smiling at. Seven stepped forward and gave her former captain a hug then said
"Admiral I am so please that you got your promotion you deserved it."
"Thank you Seven." With tears running down her cheeks she hugged seven again.
Admiral Janeway's eyes locked with Chakotay's for some reason she seemed to feel like they were the only ones in the room. Breaking the hug with Seven and started to move towards Chakotay. Arms outstretched she pulled him in for a hug. Just then Seven grabbed Janeway's arm and turned her to face Seven.
"Admiral I feel I must inform you that as of this moment I am terminating my relationship with Chakotay." With those words she turns and looks at Chakotay
"I am sorry." Was all Seven said and turned on her heels and left.
"Okay that was interesting. But I am thankful; I don't think it would have worked out anyway. And it lets me do this."
Chakotay grabbed Kathryn and landed a deep passionate kiss. At first Kathryn wanted to pull away but something clicked inside making her realize that this is exactly want she wanted, so she gave in.
As days passed Kathryn and Chakotay spent more and more time together rekindling the love they felt back on new earth. They spent time in Canada and in Ireland followed by a weekend in Paris where they had real wine and enjoy a beautiful view of the city.
"Chakotay this is amazing." Kathryn said in a relaxed voice
"I thought you might like this. More wine?" asked Chakotay
"I really shouldn't, we have already finished one bottle and the second one is almost finished." Kathryn explained
Together the finished the second bottle and began to drink the third. The sun was setting and there was a cool wind blowing. Chakotay moved to put his arm around Kathryn when he stopped and turned her head so he could look into her eyes.
"I love you." Chakotay said and kissed her passionately.
They moved from the balcony that they were standing on to go into the bedroom were they made passionate love together for the first time.
Just under a month had past since the trip to Paris and Kathryn was feeling so sick she decided that she better go see the EMH before her meeting to get something to settle the sickness.
"Doctor I am just feeling sick give me something to settle the sickness, I have a meeting to go to with Admiral Paris and the Vulcan Ambassador." Kathryn said with a hint of anger
"Yes Admiral I just want to finish my scans." Answered the EMH
"Hmmm well that explains it." The EMH said to himself
"Doctor I am getting impatient." Kathryn called to the doctor
"Well then Congratulations Admiral you're pregnant." Answered the EMH, with a big grin on his face.
"WHAT?!" Yell Admiral Janeway as she jumped off the biobed
"Yes a very healthy baby boy. September is the month of birth, I would give you the exact date but I think with the way you work it could be early so a surprise would be good for you." Said the EMH
"I would also suggest you talk to Chakotay letting him know he is a father would be a—"
"Thank you doctor I know what I have to do. Can I go?" interrupted the Admiral
"Yes you may go, I will contact you for your next appointment." Replied the EMH.
The meeting went by like a blur the walk back to her apartment was a good time to reflect on the news she had received earlier in the day.
As she entered her apartment she activated the computer.
"Contact Chakotay" she said to the computer. Chakotay's faces appeared on the screen. A big smile formed and he couldn't help but laugh a little.
"Kathryn now this is a nice surprise. I haven't seen you for a few days how's it going?" Chakotay asked.
"Are you free?" she asked
"Yes I will be right over." Before Kathryn could respond he ended transmission.
The door chime spooked Kathryn because she was working over in her mind what she was going to say to Chakotay when he arrived.
"Its open" she called.
Chakotay walked in and sat on the sofa beside Kathryn.
"Are you ok? You look upset Kathryn." Asked Chakotay
Kathryn got up and started to pace.
"You know I care a lot about you Chakotay, and I enjoy spending time with you." She started
"Your breaking you with me aren't you." He said standing up so he could look her in the eyes, even though he is taller than her. Standing in front of her and stopping her from moving he looked into her eyes, she was crying, tears were pouring down her face.
"No I'm not breaking up with you I am trying to tell you…. I'm Pregnant!" she said and put her face into his shoulder so she could cry.
"that's amazing, We're having a baby Kathryn a baby." He said with a smile that could have gotten him out of any problem.
"Well I don't know Chakotay, this isn't exactly a good time for this, I have important things to do at Starfleet and well I can't just stop this new program cause I need to have a baby." Kathryn explained with a touch of anger.
"Kathryn is ok I will be here with you the whole time.. Which brings me to this.." cleaning his throat Chakotay gets down on one knee
"Kathryn would you marry me?"
"Oh God Chakotay first I find out I'm pregnant at the worst possible time and now you want me to marry you.. Damn it Chakotay." Throwing her hand up in the air she began to pace again.
"Kathryn STOP!" Yelled Chakotay "I'm in love with you and I know you are too so just stop. Yes the timing could be better but we didn't plan this and well I think this could be good. Starfleet does owe us a lot and you only need time of closer to the due date."
"Your right." Exhausted Kathryn flopped onto the sofa while Chakotay joined her.
"Yes Chakotay. Yes I will marry you." Kathryn said with a smile
So happy Chakotay leaned towards Kathryn and kissed her. He pulled back and smiled at Kathryn. He moved to kiss her again stopped just short of kissing her lips
"I love you." He said then began to kiss her very passionately.
