Okay, so it's late, but I'm buying forgiveness, isn't that called the sale of indulgences, whatever, with an additional epilogue and the first one shot of the five drabbles of McCoy and Uhura baby world...That story, since it's a piggyback of this story, is called Just McCoys....

Oh, and the epilogue doesn't really have any McCoy or Nyota in it, but it's still with this story and I think you'll like it if you give it a chance... ;)

Nyota Uhura didn't do nervous. She did happy. Pissed off. Sometimes sad. A handful of times on the U.S.S. Enterprise she did edgy, but never full on nervous. Until now. She glanced down at her shoes to check for any scuffs. Satisfied that they were still pristine she looked back at the double doors closed ominously in front of her. She wished her Leo were with her. He always knew what to say to calm her down. Exactly how to make her relax. Whoa. That was a dangerous train of thought. That's how they had ended up with Ella. A calm down session after Kirk's disastrous fifteenth birthday party and a couple months later.....SURPRISE!

She smiled at the memory. She wouldn't trade Ella for anything, but she was done having children. Besides Leonard threatened to divorce her if she didn't stop being, "so damn hot and equally fertile." He had reminded her that he wasn't, "made of money." And kids cost, "so damn much." He was adorable when he pouted. Not much longer now. She nodded as a young friend of Uhura's passed her.

"Are you okay Mrs. McCoy?" Nyota nodded not trusting herself to speak through her emotions brought on by reminiscing. The girl grasped Nyota's hand.

"Don't worry. Uhura will be fine. You just call me if you need anything." Uhura nodded at the girl and squeezed her hand reassuringly. The girl smiled widely and headed past Uhura. The doors opened and Uhura walked quickly past all the people watching. For being someone who was so famous for their world saving exploits Nyota never got used to being in the spotlight.

Moving quickly to the front she turned and watched the other people following her and then the moment came that she had been dreading all day. The doors closed. A familiar tune started and when the doors opened again there was Uhura on her father's arm and in the most beautiful white gown. She couldn't believe her baby was getting married already.

She glanced at the groom, young Hatfield Kirk, who was smiling widely at Uhura McCoy and trying desperately not to cry in front of the large gathering of people. She caught her son Kirk's gaze as he rolled his eyes and shrugged his shoulders. He had sworn he was going to be a bachelor forever, but if the attentions of the Maid of Honor were any indication, that might not be the case.

When Uhura had been handed off to her groom and the ceremony started her husband joined her in their pew and took her hand. She smiled at him and kissing the back of her hand he turned back to watch his daughter get married. She almost asked him how he was holding up so well at his daughter's wedding when she remembered they hypo on their dresser this morning. Dirty little cheater!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The wedding had gone spectacularly and everyone was outside the reception venue to see the young couple off on their honeymoon. Three weeks on Orion. She glanced at her husband's tight lipped grimace and remembered his reaction to the destination news.

"Orion! That's just an entire planet of sex and disease. Danger too, all wrapped up in darkness..."

"And silence?" Nyota had helpfully chimed in as she worked on a report she had to complete for the captain.

"Well, yes." She stopped scribbling on her PADD and looked up at him.

"I thought that was space." He furrowed his brow at her.

"What?!?!" She smirked.

"You said SPACE was disease and danger wrapped in darkness and silence. Not Orion." He looked genuinely baffled for a few moments.

"Well, Orion too and don't look at me like that. She could come back with some strange alien bug or worse, pregnant!" Nyota moved over to her husband and pulled him into an embrace.

"And would that be so bad? I mean, look at us, I got pregnant about five seconds after we got married." He still didn't smile.

"We were older and wiser." She shook her head in negative.

"Actually, I was only a few years older than Uhura is now." McCoy growled at her.

"Well, a few years was longer back then!" She laughed at him and he put his forehead against hers.

"What am I gonna do?" She pecked him on the lips gently.

"You're going to be fine. You're not going to do anything." He grumbled something about horny kids and making sure Hatfield knew exactly what a eunuch was but finally gave her the famous McCoy grin.

"We turned out pretty well didn't we." She smiled at him.

"Better than best." She pulled his lips to hers. They didn't speak again for several hours.

"What are you smiling at? I know what he's smiling for." McCoy indicated Hatfield who was beaming down at Uhura as the prepared to exit the hall.

"Just remembering." He snorted.

"Yah, me too. I was just remembering when my little girl was UNTOUCHED AND SINGLE!" The people closest to them turned to look and see what caused the outburst. Nyota smiled graciously until the people turned back around.

"Get a hold of yourself Leonard McCoy. You have battled Romulans from the future. You've seen the scariest diseases the universe has to offer. You've survived impossible situations with even more impossible odds." He crossed his arms and with his bottom lip slightly stuck out Nyota thought her looked more like a petulant child then a father at his daughter's wedding.

Suddenly Kirk slid next to the McCoys.

"Well, hello there family." Nyota rolled her eyes and McCoy groaned.

"Jim, I'm not in the mood." Jim smiled wide.

"Why not? Our kids are getting married. Soon there will be babies. I mean, Orion for their honeymoon, you know there's going to be some freaky..." Jim Kirk finally noticed McCoy's expression and amended his statement.

"...conversations about how un-freaky and ridiculously innocent the whole honeymoon thing was." Nyota breathed a sigh of relief. Even if it was a terrible lie and a completely awkward way to finish the sentence at least he hadn't said what she thought he was going to say.

Ella raced up to her parents with her flower girl dress flying behind her.

"Daddy! Daddy!" He scooped her into his arms for a big hug.

"Yes Ella Ella?" She scrunched her nose. She hated it when her parent's and siblings teased her. One day she was going to be a grown up with kids and she was never going to tease them. Well, maybe a little.

"Matt Richards is a butthead..." Nyota turned sharply to her daughter.

"Ella!" The little girl rolled her eyes heavenward and tossed her arms in the air.

"Well, he is a butthead! What else should I call him? He kissed me. On the mouth! I mean, is that even allowed?" McCoy turned to his wife and she could already see where it was headed.

"That most certainly is not allowed. Where is this Matt Richards? I think Daddy needs to have a talk with him." Ella smiled at her dad.

"No you don't Daddy. I took care of it all by myself." Nyota lowered herself to her daughter's level.

"Ella, what did you do?" The little girl pushed her shoulders back with pride.

"I said, 'Matt Richards, you are a butthead and your mouth tastes like replicator pizza.' And then I punched him in the stomach." Nyota turned to her husband.

"Well?" Leonard swung his daughter into the air.

"Well what? Matt Richards IS a butthead."
