Kurt was sitting in bed after dinner reading a magazine. He smiled as he listened to Dave through the baby monitor singing Maya to sleep. He smirked as he remembered how on Thanksgiving 2 years ago little Maya made her debut in this world.

TWO YEARS AGO

THANKSGIVING

Kurt Carol and Rachael were in the kitchen cooking the big meal. David, Finn Azimio , Puck and Burt were all in the living room watching the game. Sheila was reading a book in the living room as well. Kurt had come out to check on everyone. "Dinner will be ready in about an hour." He said.

"Ok son. We'll be there." Burt said.

"Finn could you and Puck set the table?" Kurt asked.

"Why us?" Finn asked.

"You're eating aren't you?" Kurt asked back.

"But but." Finn said.

"Just set the table Finnigan." Kurt said going back into the kitchen.

"He got you there Finnessa." Puck said.

Dave , Burt and Az shared smirks. It was a few minutes later when Dave felt a sharp pain go through his stomach. He winced and stood up. "Where you goin?" Burt asked.

"Just gonna go and use the boys room." Dave said.

"Ok." Burt said.

When Dave didn't come back in a few minutes Burt walked into the kitchen. "Kurt might be a good idea to go check on Dave." Burt said.

"Something wrong?" Kurt asked.

"Just a dad's intuition. He went to the bathroom. After he winced." Burt said.

"Ok. I'll be right back." Kurt said drying his hands.

When he got upstairs he found the bathroom door open and Dave sitting on the toilet lid. "You ok" Kurt asked.

"I think I am having contractions." Dave said.

Kurt could see how pale he was and sweat was running down his face. "How far apart?" Kurt asked placing his hand on Dave's expanded stomach.

"Just started." Dave said.

Kurt kissed him. "Ok. Let's wait and see how far apart they are. If they're close we'll start making our way to the hospital." Kurt said.

"Ok." Dave said.

"You wanna come back down stairs?" Kurt asked running his hand through Dave's hair.

"Yeah." Dave said standing unsteadily.

Walking back down stairs Dave made himself comfortable on the couch. Kurt walked past his dad and just smirked. "Contractions. He's got a stopwatch." Kurt said.

"Ok. I'll keep watch on him." Burt said heading back to the recliner.

A few hours later the meal was cooking and the ladies plus Kurt were washing up the dishes when Burt yelled for Kurt. Kurt walked into the living room to find Finn and Puck holding a trembling Dave up. "What happened?" Kurt asked.

"He went to get up and bout face planted into the coffee table. Kurt he's rigid." Puck said.

"C contraction." Dave panted.

Kurt walked up to them and took his face with his hands. "Wanna go to the hospital. Or stay here?" He asked.

"S stay here." Dave said panting.

"Ok. Az would do me a favor?" Kurt asked the ex football player standing in the corner looking scared.

"Sure." Az said.

"In the guest room could you put a plastic cover on it for me?" Kurt asked.

"Yes." Az said wanting to be anywhere else.

Sheila stood up. "I'll help him." She said easing past all the men.

Dave took a cleansing breath and bout sagged between Finn and Puck. "Whoa dude." Puck said adjusting his hold on him.

"As soon as Az and your mom get the mattress covered we're getting you in the guest room and settled. Ok?" Kurt asked.

"K. I am sorry to ruin Thanksgiving." Dave said.

"Hey none of that. You're bringing a miracle into the world. Dinner can wait. This is more important." But said helping Finn ease Dave onto the couch.

"Yeah. Besides the princess wants to help us celebrate." Puck said.

Sheila came out of the guest room. "Ok bed is all set." She said.

"Come on big guy. Let's get you settled in a bed." Puck said gently pulling Dave up off the couch..

"Kurt?" Dave asked.

"I'm right here. They're gonna get you to the room." Kurt said.

Puck and Fin had settled Dave on the bed. "We're gonna leave you two alone for a while. Yell if you need something or it starts." Burt said.

"Thanks." Kurt said going over to Dave.

"I am so scared." Dave said shaking.

"I know. But just think once this is over our princess will be here." Kurt said kissing his head.

"You need to go finish cooking." Dave said.

"I am needed here." Kurt said.

3 HOUR LATER

Everyone including Dave was seated around the table getting ready to eat. Kurt who was sitting beside Dave held his hand. "Tell me when you need to go lie back down. It's no trouble." Kurt said quietly rubbing Dave's hand.

As everyone ate their meal laughing and carrying on Dave had 4 or 5 minor contractions each time grasping Kurt's hand and breathing through em. "Those were close together." Kurt said.

"I,m ok." Dave said quietly.

"If your back hurts let me know and i,ll get the tennis balls." Kurt said equally as quiet.

"What are you two whispering about over there?" Finn asked.

"Just asking how he is holding up." Kurt said.

"How are you doing David?" Rachel asked.

"Hanging in there." Dave said wincing.

"Have you decided when you wanna go to the hospital?" Carol asked.

"I don,t know." Dave said looking defeated.

"I am keeping an eye on them." Kurt said.

"How do you know when he has one?" Finn asked.

"I just know Finnessa." Kurt said rubbing Dave's hand under the table.

"Ok who wants some pie?" Carol asked trying to steer the conversation somewhere else.

"I,ll be right back." Kurt said getting up and running up the stairs.

"Is he skipping out on cleaning up?" Rachel asked disappointed.

"He probably went to get some tennis balls." Dave said.

"Ohhh are we playing outside?" Finn asked.

"Sit Finn." Burt said as Kurt came back into the room with a sock in his hand.

"Scooch your chair back and lean up a little." Kurt said in Dave's ear.

When Dave did Kurt rolled the tennis balls over his back. "You wanna try to walk a little?" Kurt asked.

"Yes. After this one passes." Dave said trying to curl up on the pain.

"No don't curl up." Kurt said rubbing his back.

"It hurts Kurt." Dave said whimpering.

"Let me call Dr Sims and see what he wants you to do." Kurt said fixing to get up.

Dave grabbed his arm and yanked as much as he could. "Kurt stay with him I'll call him." Burt said.

"His number is in my phone." Kurt said going back to guiding Dave through his latest contraction.

Once it was done Dave took a deep breath. "I need to go to the bathroom." He said trying to get up.

"Here man let me walk with you to the bathroom." Azimia said getting up.

When the two of them left the room Finn looked to Kurt. "Should we get him to the hospital?" He asked.

At that time Burt came in with the phone in his hand. "He is not here." Burt said looking around handing the phone to Kurt.

"Hi Dr Sims. Sorry to bother you on Thanksgiving." Kurt said.

"No bother. I wasn't surprised to hear from your dad. I told your dad that it's up to Dave if he wants to head to the hospital. Do we know if his water broke?" Dr Sims asked.

"I don't think so." Kurt said.

"KURT!" Azimio yelled.

"Maybe it did." Kurt said getting up and heading to the bathroom.

He found Azimio trying to hold onto Dave. "What's wrong?" Kurt asked.

"That" Az said pointing to a puddle on the floor under Dave's feet.

"Yes it has. It's tinted Pink." Kurt said.

"Ok I want him to get to the hospital. Kurt don't scare him just get him to Lima Memorial." Dr, Sims said.

"We'll be there." Kurt said handing the phone to Burt .

He walked over to the whimpering Dave. "Hey. Look at me. We need to go to the hospital. Just in case it starts snowing. I don't think our guests wanna see Baby Girl be born in the living room." Kurt said rubbing his face.

Dave nodded still shaking. "Ok. Az would you go to the closet beside the door. There is a bag there. Dad would you get Finn?" Kurt asked.

"Sure." Burt said as him and Az went to do their tasks.

"I'm scared." Dave said.

"Wanna know a secret?" Kurt asked quietly. "I am too." Kurt said kissing Dave.

1 HOUR LATER

LIMA HOSPITAL.

Dave had been admitted and was now still in pain. Kurt who was beside him coaching him when the door busted open. "Finn I told ya son. Room 134. Not 314." Burt said.

"Not my fault Kurt told me as I was eating." Finn said.

"Shhh." Kurt hissed.

"Sorry. How you doing Dave?" Burt asked.

"Hurts." Dave whimpered.

"Dr Sims said he would be in a few minutes. Still need to examine him and see what the plan is." Kurt said standing and letting Sheila get next to Dave.

"Have they given him anything?" Burt asked.

"Just stuff to keep him hydrated. Contractions have been every 10 minutes." Kurt said as Dr Sims came in.

"Hey fellas. How we doing?" He asked.

"Don't know about you all but I am being ripped apart." Dave said from the bed.

"Sorry to hear that. I need to examine you. " Dr Sims said.

"That is our cue to leave and let Carol and the rest of the group know how you guys are doing." Burt said guiding Finn out.

"I'll go and get some coffee." Sheila said.

"Ok Dave can I examine you?" Dr Sims asked.

"Yeah." Dave said getting in position.

Once the examination was over Dr Sims sighed. "She's breech. I wanna get you to the OR." Dr Sims said.

"What does that mean?" Kurt asked.

"It means her feet are here." He said pushing on Dave's stomach downwards.

"Dear Gawd." Dave said.

"Ok. I'll have the anesthesiologist come in and do an epidermal. Kurt you'll get scrubbed and into gear after he is given the epidermal." Dr Sims said.

"Ok." Kurt said.

"I'll see you guys in the OR." He said leaving.

"Did I do something wrong?" Dave asked.

"No you did nothing wrong. She just is stubborn like me." Kurt said smirking.

Just then another Doctor walked in. "Hi,. I am Dr, Jenkins I am here to give you an Epidermal." He said.

"Ok." Dave said.

"Ok Dave I want you to roll onto your side facing your husband," Dr Jenkins said.

Kurt helped get Dave rolled onto his side,. "I am gonna untie your gown. Now you're gonna feel something cold it's just betadine." Dr, Jenkins said.

While he was swapping Dave's back Kurt ran his hand through Dave's hair. "It's gonna be ok." Kurt said,

"Ok you're gonna feel a small pinch. Do not pull away from it. Push into it." Dr Jenkins said.

The doctor stick a needle into Dave's back. "Ow ow ow ow." Dave said closing his eyes.

Kurt laid his hand on Dave's hand. "It's almost over." Kurt said kissing his hand.

"Ok Dave I'm almost done. You're doing great." Dr Jenkins said.

Kurt kept his hand running through Dave' hair while the Doctor finished up. In a minute the doctor pulled back. "Ok Dave you can roll over now. In a few minutes two orderlies are gonna come and roll you to the OR. There will be a lot of activity but Dr, Sims will walk you through it." Dr Jenkins said.

"Ok thank you." Dave said rolling carefully over. The Anesthesiologist walked out leaving Kurt watching over a trembling Dave.

It was another five minutes when two Orderlies came in along with Dave's Nurse. "Ok we're here to take Mr Karofsky to the OR for prep. Nurse Hallie will take your husband to get some scrubs on." The one orderly said.

"O Ok." Dave said.

"Hey. Look at me." Kurt said pulling his face to him.

"I'll be right in. We'll meet our girl soon. I love you." Kurt said kissing Dave.

"I love you too. Hurry." Dave said.

Kurt smirked. "I will Hamhock.." Kurt said as the Orderlies rolled Dave out of the room.

It was another 10 minutes before Kurt got to be where Dave was. When he walked in he saw Dave laid out on the gurney with his arms laid out beside him. One had blood pressure cuff on it. The other was covered in IV's.

Kurt made his way over and sat down. "How you doing?" Kurt asked.

"Very nervous." Dave said.

Kurt laid his hand on his chest rubbed. "Ok Dave . Can you feel me touching you?" Dr, Sims asked.

"No." Dave said.

"Ok we're starting. In a few minutes you'll meet your girl." Dr Sims said.

Dave looked to Kurt. "Did try to come with you?" Dave asked.

"No. Dad and Finn kept them back." Kurt said.

"Ok Dave you doing ok?" Dr Sims asked.

"Yeah just feel some pulling." Dave said.

"That's a good sign." Dr Sims said.

In a few minutes Kurt heard the most precious sound. "Boys meet your Daughter." Dr Sims said holding a screaming baby above the sheet.

"Oh my." Dave said crying himself.

"The nurse is gonna get her cleaned up and then Kurt will bring her for you to see Dave." Dr Sims said.

"Ok." Dave said.

Kurt leaned down and kissed Dave. "Thank you." Kurt said wiping tears off Dave's face.

"Kurt come get your Baby girl." The nurse said.

Kurt walked over and picked her up and smiled. "Let's go meet your other daddy." Kurt said going back to the head of the bed. Dave smiled when he got the first real glimpse of his daughter. Kurt kissed him.

Kurt was joustled from his thoughts when the bed dipped. "Where were you?" Dave asked smirking.

"Just thinking of the Thanksgiving surprise." Kurt said putting his magazine down.

"Oh you mean the one I just put to bed?" Dave asked laying down and rolling onto his side.

"Yes." Kurt said.

"Time to get some sleep." Dave said.

"Love you. G,night" Kurt said rolling over.
