What happens in Vegas...Stays in Vegas
Chapter 8
A/N: Please forgive the typos for the moment. I was finishing this on my Ipad and it is not the easiest of ways. I wanted to get it published. Plus I'm currently on a cruise as I type sitting on my balcony. Royal Caribbean Quantum of the Seas is not a recommended ship to sail on. Take it from me a very seasoned cruiser.
Two days later Hawke and Caitlin were standing on the veranda of their villa drinking in the vision of paradise before them. Breathing in the freshest air that seems to be only left on the earth.
"Now you made it impossible to go back home. Paradise can't even begin to describe this place, there are no words. String, can you tell me how you found out about this place?"
"An old friend from 'Nam. He told me about it after coming back from a humanitarian mission. He too could barely describe it had to show me pictures and he was right,"
"Two days to fly here, has to be most secluded place on earth. No one can ever find us which is the most perfect feeling right now,"
"We have two weeks to hide here from the world and by the time we get home, we're going to move you right into the cabin. That should take another week plus a little relaxation it should be a total of a month we'll have been gone," Hawke said as he began to leave a trail of kisses down her neck.
"String, I don't care if we never see anyone again. Now enough talking and make love to me," She said moaning from the feel of his tongue sliding down her neck. Slowly untying the knot of her short sarong dress.
Hawke reaches down, cupping her behind and picks her up as he begins to kiss her again. She wraps her legs around him as he leans back against the bed post, squeezing her cheeks. Cait begins to moan softly into his mouth as he turns and lays her on the bed, gently falling on top of her warm body. Her hands search his shirt, undoing the buttons as fast as she could while he runs his hands over her face and through her hair. He leans up and pulls his shirt off, blindly tossing it away and looks down at his wife's amazing body as she reaches up, grabbing his neck and pulling him back down. As their lips meet he runs his hands down her legs and slowly up her body to her chin. He pushes her hair aside and kisses her neck softly, feeling her heart beat as he moves down towards her firm breasts. He moves his way slowly across her cleavage back up towards her exposed ear. He kisses and softly bites her earing and whispers, "I'm so glad I married you."
"Me too." She replies as she looks into his deep blue eyes. She runs her hands up his bare back as she pulls him in, kissing him deeply and passionately, then more aggressively as her hormones start to take over. She runs her nails up his back causing him to moan softly, only intensifying the moment. She feels her insides stir as his aroused penis presses against her leg.
Pulling her hands around to his chest she feels his heart pounding as she pushes him, rolling them both over. As she throws her legs over him she looks down, seeing Hawke with a big smile on his face. She runs her nails up his chest to his face and she leans down to kiss him, softly teasing his lips as she moves away at first before committing. He reaches up and runs his hands over her wet petal, fitting two fingers under them and squeezes softly. Caitlin moans as she starts to rock her hips back and forth, rubbing her hot snatch against his khaki shorts. She presses harder feeling his hard shaft press against her warm, moist mound.
She grinds harder as Hawke's hands move from her rocking ass up her aroused body, gliding them over her covered breasts. He runs one hand behind her neck and the other down and up under her sexy top. His left hand moves up her smooth skin and over her firm breast, cupping it and squeezing it. He feels her hard nipple between his fingers as they both moan with pleasure. He watches as she slowly raises up and runs her hands through her hair. He runs his nails down her chest and stomach and reaches back, grabbing her ass. Cait moans softly as she grinds herself on him. Hawke locks his gaze on her firm breasts. He reaches up for both of them as she leans in and starts to kiss him again. He glides his hands across her breasts as he moves his arms around her, holding her close. Then turns over on his side, pulling her down with him. As they lay on the large soft bed he runs his hand down her side as they kiss. Tracing his hands across her hips he runs them down onto her moist wet crotch. They both moan together with the feeling of excitement as Hawke starts to slowly massage her hot spot.
Caitlin moans softly as she raises her knee up, allowing Hawke easier access. She runs her hand down his body and grabs his hard shaft and begins to massage it aggressively. She feels a push on her shoulder as she is laid back down. Hawke pushes her face to the side and kisses her neck, slowly making his way down to her hard nipples, moving back and forth from breast to breast. He bites and tongues each nipple teasingly. Cait watches as her husband eyes her from her breasts. He slowly moves over between her legs, and kisses down her body as his hands undo her then looks down at his wife. "You are so sexy."
"Mmm... thanks," she says as she runs her hands over her body. Hawke leans forward and kisses his wife as his right hand finds it's way to her patch. Caitlin opens her mouth and moans as she feels his fingers rubbing her swollen clit. Hawke rubs it with two fingers, trapping it between them as he runs his fingers in circles. Taking his other hand he runs it out her arm, and grabs her wrist, pinning it above her head. He then pulls his other hand up, pinning Cait's free arm above her head as he kisses her. He grabs both of her wrists in one hand and reaches behind the stack of pillows, pulling out her sarong. Tying the red sarong around her wrists he leans over, attaching the other end to large bed post.
Caitlin looks up, and watches her hands being tied to the bed, her body shivers with excitement as her husband steps off the bed. She watches as he slowly unbuttons his shorts, pulling it off at once. As he leans back up she sees his erect cock staring her down. Hawke walks over slowly stroking his shaft as he kneels on the bed and grabs Cait's hair, slowly guiding the head of his member into her waiting mouth. She takes his shaft with pleasure, swirling her tongue around as she tries to take more of it in her mouth. Holding the base of his member in one hand and her head in the other, Hawke slowly feeds his shaft into her mouth, then slowly pulls it all the way out. He smiles down as he watches her reach for more as he gladly thrusts back into her mouth, giving her more and more. Moaning softly, Cait moves her head with his member, letting him slowly fuck her mouth. He builds up to a moderate speed, as he listens to her moan. Hawke pulls his wet shaft out of her mouth and dangles his balls over her face, and moans as he feels her tongue glide across them. Cait eagerly licks and sucks on his balls. Looking up she can see him stroking his saliva covered cock and starring down at her with a smile on his face. Caitlin feels her naked husbands hand move to the back of her neck, lifting her head as he pulls his cock away. Slowly, Hawke inserts himself into her open mouth, moaning as he feels it enter her throat. He slowly pulls back out and strokes his dick a few times before pushing it back into her mouth. Hawke smiles as he pushes his balls against her chin, and listens, as her muffled moan sends chills down his spine. After a few seconds he pulls his member out letting her breath before slowly fucking her mouth a few more times as he reaches over to rub his horny wife's dripping wet patch.
Hawke steps away from Cait's mouth and disappears between her legs. Cait moans as she feel his tongue slide over her wet slit, teasing her. She spreads her legs wider as she feels his fingers spread her smooth, shaven pussy, and his tongue press against her clit. Hawke moans as he tastes her warm snatch, running his tongue around her clit and down pushing it into her. She moans softly as he moves his tongue between her clit and her hole. He wets one of his fingers and pushes it into her soaking wet petal as his tongue is fully committed to her clit. Running circles around her it with his tongue, his finger moves in and out of her tight hole, rubbing against her g-spot. Hawke moans as he slowly picks up speed, pleasuring his wife. He pulls his face from between her thighs to watch her with his fingers inside her.
He dives back in, sucking hard on her clit as two of his fingers now work her wet petal. He stares up her horny body as he flattens his tongue on her clit, moving it from side to side as he fingers deep into her cunt.
"Oh, fuck! Make me cum, make me cum!" Cait moans out.
Hawke continues rubbing her g-spot and tasting her clit, being more aggressive then before.
"Oh, yes! Don't stop! Your going to make me cum! Oh yes! Yes! YES!" Cait screams as she feels a rush go through her body. Hawke moans as he feels her petal tighten as she cums. Pulling his fingers out he moves his tongue around her cumming patch. He moans loudly as her juices gush from her patch. Squeezing her ass hard, he pulls her petal into his mouth. Moving his tongue into her hole he tastes every last drop she had for him.
As Cait stops moaning and lies there breathing heavily, Hawke slowly kisses his way up to her lips. As his tongue dives into her mouth she tastes her sweet patch. Wishing she could use her hands to hold him closer, she moans deeply into him.
"So, how would you like to be fucked?" Hawke asks as he rubs the head of his member on Cait's wet petal.
"Oh God yes! Will you untie me so I can ride you?" she asks as she looks up at her bound hands.
"How about you just roll over." Hawke says as he kneels on the bed and uses her hips to flip her over, then pulls her ass up towards him. Letting Caitlin get on her hands and knees, Hawke gives her ass a soft slap as she looks back at him, playfully.
Cait looks back as she spreads her legs. She watches as Hawke guides his shaft to her dripping wet petal. He teases it up and down, spreading her lips with his shaft and rubbing her clit with his head. Hawke aggressively pushes his rock hard shaft into her, pushing it all the way in until his hips lay against her ass. He starts to fuck her horny patch, and listens to her moan loudly. This only drives him more as he fucks her harder, moaning as he feels his balls slap against her. Cait pushes her arms forward and arches her back as her petal is fucked deep and hard.
Caitlin moans as the headboard starts to knock against the wall and the bed posts begin to sway. Hawke sticks his thumb in his mouth, and grabs her ass. He starts to rub her tight little ass hole with his wet thumb as he fucks her. Rubbing more aggressively as he goes. Cait moans deeply with the unexpected pleasure as she looks back and watches her husband pound her hole with his cock.
"I want to feel you cum deep in me,"
"God, you're so fucking dirty." He replies as he firmly grabs her hips and moans loudly.
Hawke reaches forward and grabs a hand full of his wife's hair, pulling it back aggressively as he pounds her petal with his shaft. Cait moans as she is pulled up, her head and back both arched backward, and her arms outstretched, still tied to the bed post. Hawke slowly puts her back down and runs his nails down her back and grabs a hold of her hips and ass.
"Oh fuck! You feel so good!"
"Cum in it! I want to feel you explode inside me." she excitedly calls back.
"Oh fuck, yes," Hawke replies.
Moaning loudly he continues to pound her before he feels his body start to shake. Squeezing her ass tighter he moans. "Oh fuck yes, I'm cumming!"
Hawke slows his thrusting as his cock explodes into her petal, he moans as he cums deep inside her.
"Oh fuck yes! More, more!" Cait screams as she feels the warm load fill up her.
Hawke moans deeply as his body shakes and he shoots his final load into Cait. He moans softly as he pulls his member out of his cum filled wife, and lays down on their large bed, his eyes closed and his breathing heavy. He feels a warm mouth cover his cock taking it deep in, sucking all of her juices and cum off of it. Looking up he sees his cock in his wife's mouth, one of her hands resting on the bed, the other deep in her pussy.
"You tricky girl."
"I escaped." she says smiling as she crawls up the bed lays down with her husband.
He wraps his arms around her and kisses her forehead as they fall asleep.
Three weeks later...
"Well, that's the last of it," Caitlin said with a little hint of sadness to her tone.
"Are you ok? Gonna miss this place aren't you?" Hawke said taking her hand.
"Yeah, just a little. This is where I started my new life, but now I'm starting a new chapter of my life and it involves, the man I love and adore the most," Cait said.
"I'm going to damn well make sure you will be happy for as long as you live," Hawke said.
"No, we are going to make sure that we're happy," Cait said squeezing his hand.
Hawke answered with a small lingering kiss to her lips.
"We better get going. Our ride lifts off in an hour," Hawke said.
"I feel kinda bad that we're back with Dom not knowing," Cait said.
"Cait, he'll know soon enough. Besides if he was here he would not leave us alone for a second and bugging me about having you live in the cabin. Lecturing us about living in a proper home,"
"True, but I'm ready to go home now. To the cabin and if you kiss me now we might never get out of here. So let's go," Cait said with her impish grin.
Two hours later Hawke and Caitlin were standing on the dock receiving a high spirited greeting from Tet. Hawke swept Cait off her feet starting to walk towards the cabin. Leaving the remaining bags on the dock.
"Welcome home, Cait," Hawke said with a gut deep kiss.
When they reached the door Hawke reached for the knob opening the door. Cait breaking the kiss looked through the door way taking a deep breathe. "This is really happening isn't,"
"Yes, it is Mrs. Hawke. It certainly is," He said crushing his lips to hers, legs wrapped around him, his hands hiking her shirt up holding onto her perky little breast the other on her ass so he could grind himself into her through his pants. Both of their shirts were halfway unbuttoned as they tore into the cabin, slamming the door behind them. Carrying her up to the loft, he still had her wrapped around him as they fell to the bed. His lips moved to her neck where he trailed long, sucking, biting kisses down it, slowly moving down her body.
Her black lacy bra was all that stood between his mouth and her breasts. He quickly moved that aside as he fondled one breast with his hand and teased the other with his tongue. Her breath caught in her throat when he bit down on the soft pink flesh. His mouth was hungry to taste her.
Their pants somehow made it to the floor. The under ware she was wearing matched her bra... black and lacy. He all but ripped it from her body and sat back to gaze lustily at her creamy naked skin.
His fingers slid between her legs and played with her, rubbing her slit and making her squirm. He pushed two fingers into her wet petal and moved them inside her. Her body responded quickly to his fingers, moving in sync with them. He watched with growing lust as her fingers pinched her own nipples, head thrown back, lips letting long, aroused moans escape.
He withdrew his fingers and licked the juices from them, then lowered his mouth to where they had been and buried his face into her. Tongue expertly licking every crevice, pulsating on her slit. Her moans quickly turned to cries of bliss as she started to orgasm. Her hands grabbing desperately at his head, begging for more. His mouth cradled her as cum swirled over his tongue as she rode out her orgasm, screaming her pleasure. He licked the hot cum from her and moved his lips back up her body.. Slow, tantalizing kisses, back to her mouth.
She kissed him eagerly, tasting her petal on his tongue. She felt his hard cock rubbing against her. It was warm and throbbing against her naked skin. She rolled him over and knelt before him, sliding him into her mouth. Slowly she inched her hot, wet mouth over him. Her soft tongue rubbed the head of his shaft, her smooth fingers circled the base and began to slide skillfully in sync with her mouth. His breath was heavy as he watched her. She looked up and met his gaze she sucked him... He felt ready to burst watching her, feeling her, wanting her.
After a moment, he lifted her gently from his member and moved her so that she straddled him, lowering her waiting snatch onto his throbbing erection. Agonizingly slowly, he spread her wet lips apart and entered her. She gasped at the feeling of fullness. He wrapped his arms around her and held her to his body, rocking her against him gently. Barely moving inside her, but brushing that sweet spot inside her ever so lightly. His mouth was covering her breasts again.
As he moved to kiss her lips again, she started to move faster on top of him. She kissed him deeply, then pushed him back from the sitting position to lay down so she could control her movements better. She rode him intensely... slamming herself down on his shaft, silently pleading with him to make her cum again. She cried out in bliss with every thrust, building her orgasm within her. He moved his hips with her, plunging into her deeper each time.
She moaned his name as she felt herself begin to cum... He grabbed her waist and pushed into her harder moving fast to extend the orgasm. Her eyes were shut, reveling in the orgasmic euphoria, but her cries of delight and movements never ceased as her hot juices covered his shaft.
As the orgasm tapered, he quickly moved her to her knees and shoved into her from behind. His long thighs slamming against the back of hers and hands grabbing harshly at her breasts. She placed her hand over his on her breast, encouraging him to squeeze harder. She liked it hard...
He felt so good inside her this way... pounding into her from behind. It wasn't long before she felt another orgasm building.
His hand moved to the back of her head, pulling her hair gently, tilting her head back. This made the head of his cock graze her sweet spot intensely. She couldn't hold the shriek of pleasure that followed. He pounded into her relentlessly, bringing her to the brink of orgasm again. Her hair in one hand, the other smacked her ass playfully hard. The combination of the pain from the smack and the pleasure of his shaft sent her over the edge. Her eyes blurred and she screamed as she came hard. He began to hammer into her faster, causing her orgasm to both heighten and lengthen. For a moment, she thought she might never stop cumming... especially if he kept pistoning into her that way. After a second though, that fear turned to hope.
He was lost in her screams of ecstasy as she came on his shaft again. A long, hard orgasm... leaving her breathless... and completely satisfied.
He pushed her onto her back, climbed on top of her, eagerly sliding between her legs and shoving himself back into her. His mouth crushing hers with fiery kisses. He moved inside her again. Long, bold strokes... slow and tender this time. She wrapped her arms around him, holding him to her body as he made love to her. She kissed his neck and nibbled at his ears seductively. He moved faster as he felt himself give in to her.
He choked back the urge to shout as his cock throbbed and spurted inside her, releasing his awaiting orgasm. A groan of satisfaction escaped as he filled her with hot cum and slowed his movements. A final thrust and he fell onto her, showering her lips with kisses.
Through winded breaths, she whispered "I love you" to him as he buried his face in her neck. He kissed her and whispered the same.
She gazed into his eyes, smiled sweetly, and said, "Round two?"
Five days later...
Dominic made his way to the cabin with a purpose, having not seen either Hawke or Cait for nearly a month. He hoped everything was alright with Cait and her family, he hasn't heard anything from her and was starting to get worried. He arrived to the steps and suddenly the door opened with Cait standing in the doorway.
"Hey Dom, it's great to see you! Come on in, dinner's almost ready," Cait said motioning him in.
"Cait, what are you doing here? When did you? How..." Dom asked as he slowly walked in with shock and confusion.
"Well, your a sight for sore eyes. How are you doing Dom?" Hawke said as he exited the kitchen.
"Will one of you tell me what's going on? Where have the two of you been?!"
"Everything is fine Dom, my mother caught a really bad case of pneumonia. It wasn't looking good for a week, but when she recovered the welcome mat was ripped out from underneath me," Cait said as she wiped a tear from her face with her finger wearing her wedding ring.
"That's why I stayed with her to help her deal with it. I'm glad I went, they were pretty cruel," Hawke said as he put his arm around her shoulder, exposing his hand with his ring. Cait reached up with her wedding hand grabbing his, both hands exposing their bethroual.
"Cait, oh honey I'm sorry. But don't you worry, we're your family now. String and I will never do that to you," Dom said.
"Thanks Dom, I'm sorry I didn't let you know I was back. I just needed some alone time," Cait said as she placed her wedding hand to his face.
"I understand, Cait. I'm just glad to have you both back." he said.
Cait looked at Hawke in amazement. Trying to reveal their marriage to him was tougher than they thought. Normally he would have noticed the rings right away but he was just clueless.
"Well, let's eat then and catch up on things," Hawke said.
As they enjoyed dinner Hawke and Cait dropped clues to the ultimate outcome of their trip. Wanting Dom to figure it out on his own was backfiring. "Oh, wait Dom I got you a gift. I left it upstairs just give me a minute, I can't remember which drawer I put in,"
"She didn't have to get me anything, but it's nice someone thought of me."
Hawke stared at him in disbelief. So many obvious clues dropped to him, both holding their glasses with their wedding hands. Rings exposed as daylight. Cait stood at the balcony throwing her arms up in the air in disbelief as well.
"Oh, I can't find it. I think I might of forgot to pack it. Sorry Dom,"
"That's ok, sweetie. It's the thought that counts," Dom said as he got up giving her a small peck to the cheek.
"I'll be going now, thanks for the dinner String. Come on Cait, I'll give you a ride back home," he said as he headed for the door.
"No, Dom I'm staying here," She said.
Dominic spun around to see Cait standing next to Hawke, his arm tightly around her waist. Pulling her tightly to him.
"What do you me..."
"What she means Dom is that she's already home. I would like you to meet my wife, Caitlin," Hawke said as they both held up their wedding hands.
"Wha...you mean.." Dom needing to sit down
"Yes," Cait said
"When?"
"First night," Hawke said.
Dominic sat there stunned slapping his face to make sure he was awake.
"I'm not dreaming right? Please tell me I'm not,"
"Your not," They both said in unison.
"I'm so happy! This is unbelievable! I never thought I'd see this day! Hallelujah!"
"Wait..when you called me that night was...that what I thought I heard in the background?...Oh my god Cait was that you?!.."
"Yes, it was," Cait said with her cute little grin.
"Oh...ok...well I better be going now...you two have fun...now...which by the sounds...oh Mamma Mia!" Dom stammered as he left out the door.
"Well you heard the man, let's go have some fun," Hawke said.
"Where do you want to begin?" Cait said.
One week later...
Hawke pushed through the door to find Caitlin sitting on the couch in tears.
"Oh my god, Cait what's wrong?!" Hawke said rushing over.
She looked up to him tears streaming down her face and an angelic smile of sheer pure happiness.
"What is it?" Hawke asked.
"I'm pregnant!" She said handing him the picture of the sonogram.
He sat there silent staring at the picture. Tears coming down his face looking at this picture of the life they both created. The surreality of the moment catching his breath.
"When?"
"The first night,"
"First night?"
"Yes, definitely was," Cait reassured him.
"This is our baby," Hawke said still staring at the photo.
"Actually, remember when you said you wanted six kids?"
"Yeah, but..." Hawke stopped mid sentence realizing what may be coming next.
Caitlin produced a second picture revealing two lives instead of one. Hawke completely broke down at the sight of the two lives before him. Hawke gathered her in his arms streams of tears intwining with hers.
Nine months later...
Caitlin felt like a balloon ready to burst. She wasn't due for another three weeks, she was busying herself getting the nursery ready. Thankful that they got the essential from the baby shower. Caitlin smiled with pride, they had chosen Noah's Ark for the theme. Hawke and Cait had made the decision not to know in advanced of the gender of their child. They were old fashioned that way as a young expectant mother to be told them. Unbeknownst to Cait, Hawk kept her apartment as a surprise. They used it at times for the convienc of late night work hours and for when the babies arrive. Settling there for a few weeks in case anything happens.
"This is adorable," Cait said.
"Yeah, It is. You did an amazing job,"
"No, we did," She said squeezing his hand.
Later, Caitlin was milling around the apartment cleaning this or that.
"I can't get this place clean enough," Cait said as she began to smiled. "Oh yeah, I read about this, he said. "It's the nesting stage of pregnancy,"
Cait was not paying attention to him. She was vacuuming for the third time in a row. Hawke tried to help her in her vigorous efforts to sanitize the whole apartment, but she got angry and told him to go away because he didn't clean to her liking. He was worried about her because he didn't want her straining to much.
"Cait, why don't you take it easy awhile, you shouldn't stress yourself,"
"What are you talking about String, I'm not stressed," She said as she continued her cleaning spree.
"String, do you think I'm bigger than I should be? She asked as she stopped in the middle of cleaning.
Hawke gently kissed her temple. " No, your beautiful. You are carrying two precious lives that we created. You could not get anymore beautiful than you are right now,"
"Oh String," Tears started to run down her face. Hawke knew it was her pregnancy hormones kicking in, she's only started the hormonal emotional roller coaster in the last two weeks. Wrapping his arms around her in comfort until she calmed down, kissing her temple.
"Do you mind getting me something to drink? My mouth is a little dry," Cait asked.
"Sure," He got up and walked into the kitchen. "What do you want?" he asked peering into the refrigerator. There was no response. "Cait?" Hawke said grabbing a glass from the cabinet.
"String!" Cait yelled out. Hawke dropped the glass letting it shatter to the floor. He ran out full speed towards the living room. He found Caitlin holding her stomach with her eyes closed very tightly and water dripping from her legs.
"Are you having a contraction?" Hawke asked.
Caitlin nodded her head. "I think so," she said in heavy breaths.
"Ok, just keep taking deep breaths and I'll be right back," Hawke ran back into the kitchen and grabbed a stopwatch out of a drawer. He ran into the living room sitting down next to Cait. Her eyes were open as she laid back on the couch.
"Is it over?" He asked. She nodded. Hawke started the stopwatch and helped her to her feet."Let's go. We'll be at the hospital in a couple of minutes."
When they reached the car another contraction came. This one worst than the last. Caitlin leaned against the door breathing heavily and holding her stomach. "Oh god," she said leaning over a little.
Hawke hurried over to her side to keep her steady. He stopped the stopwatch. It read six minutes and seventeen seconds. He cursed under his breath. Cait heard him and gave him a worried look that she tried to maintain but the pain got to her more.
"It's ok, we'll get there in time," he said helping her in the car.
Speeding down the avenue as fast as he could, Hawke was dodging and weaving around cars. "String, how long does it take to get to the hospital?" Cait asked.
"About ten minutes. Why?"
"Because I'm having another contraction," Hawke looked over to her, worry spread across his face.
"Are you serious!?" He picked up the stopwatch. It read five minutes twenty six seconds," There coming closer to five minutes apart now!" Hawke said as he pushed on the gas harder.
"String, stop complaining and hurry up and get to the hospital," Cait was yelling really loudly at this point.
She was sweating really hard and breathing heavily. Just then Hawke's cell phone rang, answering without looking at the caller id.
"Who ever it is now is not a good time," Before he could hang up he heard Dominic's voice through the speaker.
"String, is everything alright?" Hawke put the phone back to his ear.
"Caitlin has gone into labor. Her contractions are almost five minutes apart and we're six minutes from the hospital. I don't think everything is alright,"
Dominic started going crazy on the other end of the phone. "I'll be at the hospital soon," He said. "Tell Cait to stay calm and breath deeply," he hung up the phone.
Hawke looked over to his wife seeing tears streaming down her face. He reached over and grabbed her hand."It's going to be ok Cait. We're almost there." Caitlin looked over at her husband smiling through her tears.
They pulled up in front of the hospital four minutes later. Hawke ran into the emergency room. "My wife is in labor, her water broke and she needs to be in a room now,"
"Sir, before we can do anything, we need two things. You need to sign these insurance papers and we need the patient,"
Hawke looked around the waiting room and cursed under his breath. Running out the front door. He came back with a very pregnant lady. The nurse seeing the couple walk up and realized how far she might be along.
"We need a wheelchair," She gave Caitlin a soft smile while Hawke started filling out the insurance forms. Seconds later a man walks up with a wheelchair. Cait sat down and Hawke knelt down to her.
"Your going to be just fine. I'm going to be there in a minute, I just have to finish filling out these forms. He kissed firmly and the orderly rolled her away. He quickly finished off the last of the forms.
He was stopped outside of Caitlin's room by a doctor. Hearing her screams of pain he thought she must closer than before. "Are you her husband," Hawke nodded. "Ok, Dr. Ordorica is on his way but unfortunately we don't have time for a c-section. She is too far along,"
Hawke entered the room going straight to Caitlin's side. Grabbing her hand holding it tightly. "What took you so long!?" Cait shouted at him. Hawke couldn't help but smike le at her feistiness. "It's not funny, String! When I'm finished, I'm going to give you some free karate lessons!"
It didn't take long for the first baby, a girl, to be brought into this world. Sarah Jane. Only moments later the Doctor announced the arrival of the second baby, another beautiful little girl. Rachel Gabrielle. Both crying with a fiestiness like their mother. Hawke kissed Cait's sweaty forehead with pure love pouring through. After their all cleaned up the nurses handed the two bundles of joy to each parent.
"They're beautiful Cait, absolutely beautiful," Hawke said as his smile shined with pride gazing down at his daughters.
"They are...Ow," She yelled loudly. Suddenly felt a hard pressure. Hawke turned his attention to his wife.
"Cait, what's wrong?!" Hawke asked frantic. He handed his daughters to the nurses.
"I don't know. It feels like another contraction," She said breathlessly. The pain got worse and she screamed louder.
"Doc!" Hawke yelled. The doctor took his attention away from what he was doing and walked over. He lifted up the sheet and took a look. He looked up with a surprised expression on his face.
"It looks like we have another baby coming." At the sound of that, Hawke's face turned white.
"What! another one?..Oh God I can't do anymore!"
"Cait, you have to. Now exactly like we did before. One... two... three". It only took one push for this baby to come out.
"Meet your son," said the doctor,
It was shocking. How could there have possibly been another baby that the doctors didn't see. Hawke was shocked, but he was also thrilled.
"How... how didn't you notice the 3rd baby?" He asked.
"He must have been hiding behind one of the other fetuses," the doctor replied.
It was a miracle, to Hawke it was the best miracle in the world.
The hallway was deserted, the shuffleling steps of a patrolling nurse could be heard faintly in the distance. Suddenly the door clicked open, and Hawke immediatly staggered on his feet. " Is she.."
"She's sleeping now," Dr. Ordorica told him quietly.
"Can I go in and stay with her?"
The doctor nodded in agreement.
As Hawke was sitting next to Caitlin's bed watching her in a peaceful sleep
A couple of hours later she woke up from a drowsy drugged sleep and the sight that made her forget every complaint and scream of pain ripping through her body. Over at the window, with his back to her, was her husband. In his arms was a tiny little pink bundle, dwarfed even more in his large frame. Thomas and Sarah asleep in their bassinettes beside Hawke. He twisted his torso rhythmically, talking softly to Rachel turning the sleeping baby to the window. He craned his neck down close to her and speak in a hushed tone, then lift the crook of his arm, and point out the window some landmark, eagerly looking back to see her reaction, if any.
"Hey," she croaked
Hawke spun around, " Oh, hey," he whispered apologetically, "We didn't mean to wake you."
Caitlin shook her head, smiling at his use of "we," "You didn't," she winced as she sat up in bed. "How are they?"
"Perfect" he answered, instantly bringing Rachel over and sitting in the chair he pulled up next to Caitlin's bed. Small tufts of brown hair with streaks of red peeked out from the pink cotton.
All the children had the same hair and had the most piercing bluest of blue eyes.
Hawke and Caitlin stared down at this tiny thing, with its crumpled face and squirming legs and clenched fists. The odd little creature burbled and gurgled, poking him in the chin with its small fingers and kicking frantically. Then, it slowly opened a pair of wide, inquisitive bright blue eyes and stared quizzically up at them.
Instantly found themselves falling in love.
"Aren't they beautiful?" Cait said as they both gazed at the sleeping bundles of joy.
"Yes, they are, just like their mother," Hawke, replied softly.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. It opened slowly.
"May we come in?" came Dominic's familar voice.
"Of course," Caitlin said.
Michael and Marella walked into the room.
"How are the proud parents doing?" Michael asked.
"Very well, thank you," said Cait said.
Dominic went over to see the babies. "Oh my God!" he exclaimed. "There are three of them! Mamma Mia!"
Both Hawke and Caitlin laughed.
"Yes, we had a little surprise," Hawke said.
"What are their names?" Marella asked.
"The first born is Sarah Jane, second is Rachel Gabrielle, and third born is Thomas Dominic," Caitlin said.
"Aww, those are such pretty names," Dominic said.
"Yes, they are," Hawke said. "Pretty names... for beautiful babies,"
"Interesting the name..."
"Michael, Gabrielle was my idea. If it wasn't for her god knows what he would be like now. She brought him back to the world and opened his heart. I thought this would be fitting to her," Cait said.
"Cait, you have the biggest heart of anyone I know," Marella said.
"Hawke, you are a lucky man. I'm glad you finally came to your senses and finally found happiness," Michael said.
"Thanks, Michael,"
After Michael and Marella left Dominic stayed behind. "Cait, are you going to tell your family?"
"No, as much as it pains me to say this. They're not my family anymore, I have my family right here with me. They may not have a grandmother but they have a wonderful grandfather," Cait said.
Six months later...
Back at the cabin with their three bundles of joy. They were an energetic bunch rarely staying down long for naps. Now starting to crawl and very curious just like her mother, Hawke telling Cait that's definitely from her. Thomas was just like his father a little more quiet but had some of Cait's fiesteness. He was the easy going of the three. Loved being with both parents. Sarah Jane took after Caitlin, she most outgoing of them all. Followed her mother everywhere more possive of her towards her siblings. Rachel was a daddy's girl she had Hawke wrapped around her finger always biting at his heels. She was the happiest when she was in her father's arms. She was the giggler and loved playing peek a boo with Hawke.
Hawke's and Caitlin's love life still continued just as healthy as before. The all night sessions may have changed but they still fulfilled each other's needs. Then one day Hawke came home to find Caitlin beaming ear to ear holding a positive pregnancy test.
"I'm pregnant!"
Life could not get any better for Stringfellow Hawke.
