Chapter Ten The Blame Is On Me
As soon as Dr. Anderson had gotten the word about his patient Kate Beckett, he knew it was that time to head for the hospital and check in, all he needed to do was wait for his patient to arrive.
On the way over, Damien was driving as fast as he could, while Lanie was in the back helping Kate out with her breathing, she was far from having the baby, but it was enough to drive her crazy with her heart racing holding onto Lanie's hand.
She takes a moment just to breath, to take in Lanie's hand. Sniffs away a tear, didn't realize she'd made a sound until her eyes come up, focus on her..Lanie says. "You okak?"
Smiles through the curtain of tears, pushes away with one of her hands. "Yeah for now, I just need this to be over now and the baby in my arms."
Her hand is drawn to Lanie like a magnet, she can't stop touching her. "I can't believe this Lanie, I just hope Rick makes it in time to see his child being born."
Damien tells them they are almost at the hospital.
When Kate stumbles out of the back seat with Lanie and Damien helping her, with her legs heavy. Dr. Anderson tells Lanie to follow him to the fourth floor for where Beckett will wait for further contractions and dilation.
Taking the elevator with everyone inside, Dr. Anderson tells Beckett to try and relax while doing her breathing exercises.
Getting off the elevator, he holds it for everyone to come out and head for room 421.
Dr. Anderson advises the nurse to have everything made ready in the delivery room. He was able to assure her everything will be all right.
Kate chirped. "Are you sure, I am scare Dr. Anderson, my heart, will the heart be able to handle the stress?" She asked.
Dr. Anderson murmured. "Your heart is fine Kate, we're having this baby no matter what!" He sighed happily while shaking his head as well.
"Really?" Beckett asked eagerly. Plus the fact she was going to kick Richard Castle's ass, if he's not in the room with her to deliver the baby.
He didn't respond to that statement.
While the nurse and Lanie were getting her settled in the bed, while Damien went to speak with Josh about Kate and their heart patient.
Kate closed her eyes to try and relax. The nurse was speaking to her on whether or not she needed anything for the moment.
Meanwhile another nurse comes in to check her blood pressure, heart rate , while placing a bracelet on her right arm from admitting, as with having blood drawn just in case.
Kate asked. "What's the blood test for?" Dr. Anderson told her it was standard procedure. Kate chewed her lip.
"Are you still nervous Kate?" Lanie asked.
Kate grabbed her hand, squeezing tightly. "This is happening really fast for me, I need to start the further contractions." She sighed.
"Oh, you will, just relax and it will Kate." Lanie replied since she was able to deliver babies in the past, as with Sarah Beth.
Two hours later
Kate Grimaced, biting her lip at the crest of the contraction.
"Oh, god." She muttered.
"How far apart are they?"
Kate fought the urge to roll her eyes. She needed to have Richard Castle here with her.
Meanwhile inside the copter...Castle and the pilot were five minutes away from the roof top of the hospital.
Castle was all but bouncing in his seat, as the pilot was flying low. He was excite, and needed to be with his wife.
While inside her contractions got more intense...
