Chapter 3

"Did I just hear that correctly?" Todd asked him as he started to walk slowly towards Cole. "That Starr, my daughter is in labor?"

"Where did you hear that?" Cole asked, trying to keep the truth hidden from Todd.

"You know where I heard it from, punk," said Todd, his voice get a little harsher.

"I don't know where you heard that, but in order for your daughter to be in labor-,"

"She would have to be pregnant, I know, and I think I know who did that," Todd interrupted as he stopped, glaring at Cole.

Over at the hospital, Michael was checking a file on a patient when he saw Starr, Blair, Langston, Markko, and Dorian arrive.

"Oh my god, Blair is everything okay?" he asked.

"No, its not, Michael," said Blair.

"My water broke," said Starr, breathing really heavily. "The baby is coming."

"Oh okay, hang on," said Michael, going around the desk to help Starr. "Nurse, I need a wheelchair here, right now," he called to a nearby nurse. Starr was settled in, and Michael wheeled her to a hospital room, with Blair and Dorian following him. Langston and Markko stayed behind.

"I can't believe that this is going to happen," Langston said to Markko, who wrapped his arm around her. "I know. I do hope Cole gets here in time."

"Langston! Markko!" Someone called both of them from behind. It was Marty.

"Blair called me. She said that Starr's in labor," she said.

"Its true," said Langston.

Marty put her hand on her heart, almost not believing that she was going to have a grandchild. "Is Cole with her?" she asked.

"No, actually her mother and Dr. Lord are right now with her," Markko said. "Cole though hasn't shown up yet. I wonder where he is?"

"I hope he hurries, or otherwise he's going to miss the birth of his baby.

Back at the docks, Todd was still moving towards Cole real slowly, while Cole stood his grounds, while at the same time, trying to figure out a way to get to the hospital so he can see his child being born.

"Whom do you think got Starr pregnant?" asked Todd, get angrier by the minute, but his voice still at a regular voice.

"What kind of question is that?" Cole asked, hopefully praying that Todd would stop this.

"You know what kind of question is that. One I know you know the answer to, punk," Todd said, taking another small step forward. Cole almost took a step backward, but then caught himself, reminding himself to not back down.

Starr was in the hospital room with Blair, Dorian, and Langston. Michael had gone to get a delivery team ready for Starr's baby.

"Has Cole arrived?" Starr asked. She was sweating as she had another contraction come at her.

"I did speak to him, and he should be on his way, Starr," said Langston.

"Hey, don't worry, we'll stay with you until he arrives, okay," Blair assured her daughter.

Langston looked up and saw Markko looking in the window. She mouthed to him, 'anything,' but Markko shook his head. Langston blew some air out, wondering where her best friend's boyfriend is.

Marty was also wondering where Cole was at as well. She decided to call John if he could find him.

John, Antonio, and Talia were all talking about getting some drinks later tonight when John's phone rang. "McBain," John answered.

"John, its Marty. Starr's having her baby, but Cole hasn't arrived yet. I'm starting to get a little worried.

"Well, if you want, I can go look for him, and see where he is," John suggested.

"Can you, please? Thanks," said Marty.

"What's going on?" asked Antonio.

"Marty's got a feeling that Cole is in trouble, and he's needed at the hospital," said John. He didn't say anything about Starr being pregnant or in labor, as Antonio and Talia didn't know about it.

"Do you want to us help you?" asked Talia.

"Yeah, that would be good. Let's hurry," said John. All three of them headed out to fins Cole.
