Chapter 29:

Mike waved at Scotty as he made his way across the crowded bar towards him. He hadn't seen his brother all week and figured that he was simply enjoying married life too much to drag himself out of bed to have a drink with his brother. Scotty ordered a beer as he sat down and downed it almost in one go. Mike chuckled "Thirsty?" Scotty just smiled. "So how's that gorgeous wife treating you?"

Scotty sighed "She's hardly spoken to me all, we had a fight"

"What could you have done already?"

Scotty sighed "I told her we couldn't have sex"

Mike chocked on his beer and coughed, he looked over at his little brother and then laughed "You told Lil you couldn't have sex, are you trying to get killed?" Mike asked him when he had recovered.

"I am thinking about the baby" Scotty replied with a scowl "I don't want Lil going into pre-term labour"

Mike chuckled again "Never thought you'd be turning down a woman who actually wants to have sex with you"

"Shut up" Scotty snapped and he punched his brother on the shoulder.

"For the first few weeks of mine and Allie's marriage you couldn't get us out of bed and you're actually abstaining?"

"Can we drop this now?"

"And Lil's hot, if I we're you…."

"Don't finish that sentence" Scotty growled

Mike grinned and changed the subject "I can't believe that any minute Lilly could go into labour and you'll be a dad"

Scotty smiled "Yeah, I am looking forward to it of course but I am nervous man"

Mike patted his brother on the back "You'll be fine Scotty, you're a great uncle to Emilio, you'll be an amazing dad"

"You really think so?"

"Hey I felt the same way when Allie was pregnant, I was sure that I would fail miserably" He replied "But the minute that I held him for the first time, all my doubts faded away and I knew that I could do it and you'll be the same"

Scotty smiled "Thanks Mike"

"No problem Scotty" Mike said "Now let's talk about how you can get that wife of yours to forgive your sorry ass"


Lilly heard Scotty unlock the front door and she looked over at him, she had been giving him the ice queen treatment for the past few weeks, hardly talking to him and enjoying the fact it was starting to get to him.

"Hey baby, how was your day?" Scotty asked her calmly

"Ok" she replied tersely.

"I brought you something" He reached into the bag he was holding and held out a small stuffed brown and white rabbit as walked over to the couch and held it out to her "I know that you liked the velveteen rabbit as a kid and I saw this in the window of that big toy store downtown. Made me think if you" He shook the stuffed rabbit, inviting her to take it "It kinda looks like the rabbit in the book" She reached out and took it. Lilly fought hard to keep the scowl on her face but the corners of her lips twitched and she found herself tearing up as she held the rabbit in her hands. "Oh Scotty, this is so sweet" she began "Thanks"

Scotty smiled down at his wife and bent down to kiss her; relieved that she was allowing him to actually kiss her for the first time in two weeks "You're welcome. I love you"

Lilly brushed her hand over his cheek "I love you too, and I am sorry I have been a little bit difficult these past few weeks"

Scotty grinned "That's ok, I am sorry too"

"I know you were only looking out for our daughter, but I guess I just felt hurt and rejected" Lilly explained as she brushed a tear away from her face.

"Are you kidding? It's taking all my willpower not to take you to our bed and show you how much I love you"

Lilly smiled "I guess I'll have to wait then"

Scotty nodded "'til then there's nothing stopping me from kissing you"

Lilly giggled as Scotty's lips attached themselves to her neck and began to nip and suck the tender flesh below her ear.


Lilly was now overdue, and not just by a few days, she was almost two weeks overdue. She was tired, frustrated and horny. Scotty was trying to be supportive, giving her massages and even taking days off to spend with her. But what Lilly really wanted was to get their daughter out of her. She was scheduled to go into hospital tomorrow to be induced but she really didn't think she could handle another day and night being this uncomfortable. For the past week she had been doing everything the doctor had suggested to bring on labour without Scotty knowing. Whenever he had had been at work she had been eating spicy food and snacking on pineapple, and she'd even tried jumping up and down to no avail. The only thing left that she hadn't tried which her doctor had suggested was sex, and that was only because her stubborn husband refused to sleep with her in case it harmed their daughter. But she had had enough and…so whether Scotty liked it or not, she was going to seduce her husband in a last ditch attempt at triggering labour.

Scotty walked up the steps of the apartment and pulled out the mail from the small mail box by the front door. He was so busy flicking through the small stack of letters as he walked into the room he didn't notice that the lights were out until he shut the door behind him. "Lil?" he called up the stairs "Lil, are you up there?" His eyes flicked down to the floor and saw rose petals scattered up the narrow staircase and a flickering glow coming from their bedroom. "Lil?" he called again as he made his way up the stairs making sure to step over one of Lilly's cats that had decided that the top of the stairs was a perfect place to take a nap.

He saw that their bedroom door was ajar and he pushed it open. His eyes scanned the room spotting two large red candles burning on the dresser and the trail of rose petals that led over to the bed. He slid out of his jacket and draped it over the small armchair. "Your home" a soft voice purred behind him and Scotty turned on his heel.

Lilly stood in the doorway, wearing a skimpy white negligee and her hair lightly curled on her shoulders. "Lil?"

"Hi" she whispered and she sauntered over to him, her hips swaying back and forth almost hypnotising him.

"What's all this?" Scotty asked as Lilly slid her arms around his neck.

"I am seducing you" Lilly replied softly as she pressed her body against him "and it's working" she whispered in his ear. Scotty had grown hard at the sight of her in that negligee and he really wanted nothing more than to give in but he couldn't. Lilly was being induced tomorrow and he knew that she needed her rest. "Lil you really should be in bed" he replied.

Lilly giggled and her hands slid down his chest to his belt and tugged it loose "Oh, I am planning on going to bed right now" she replied and she slid her hand into his pants "and you're coming with me"

Scotty groaned as her delicate hands caressed him and he was finding it even more difficult to resist her. "Lil"

"Shhhhh, no more talking" Lilly ordered and her hands moved out of his pants and started to push him over to the bed "I haven't had sex in a long time and we are married, so we are going to make love right now"

She shoved him roughly onto the bed and before Scotty could react Lilly was crawling on top of him. She carefully removed his holster, checking that the safety was on and placed it beside the bed before she tugged his belt free from his pants. By this point Scotty knew there was nothing he could do to stop her and he really didn't want to either. He sat up and captured her face between his hands, his tongue delving into her soft mouth. He heard her moaning deep in her throat and Scotty's hands immediately divested Lilly of the white statin she was wearing and skimmed his hands down over her full breasts.

Lilly gripped Scotty's shirt and tugged, sending the buttons flying in all directions "I would have taken it off" Scotty said against her lips

"No time" Lilly replied breathlessly against his lips as she pushed the ruined shirt from his shoulders and threw his tie on the ground. Scotty felt her reach between them and undo his pants and start to slide them down his hips. This was the moment Scotty had been thinking about ever since his wedding day, this was the moment he and Lilly would finally consummate their marriage. He wasn't stupid. He knew for the past week that Lilly had secretly been trying to bring on labour as he'd found the spicy food packets and pineapple skin when he had taken out the trash. He'd been at the doctor's appointment when Lil's doctor had suggested they have sex to try and induce labour and a part of him wished that she wasn't using him to trigger labour, but at the end of the day he was just relived that they were finally going to have sex. He barely had time to register that she had removed his pants when she had lowered herself down onto him.

"Oh fuck" Scotty murmured

Lilly began to move, rocking her hips against him. "Scotty! Oh God I've missed this" Lilly whispered.

"Me too" Scotty added.

His lips reattached to hers and he explored her mouth with his tongue, twining it around her own and delighting in the moans and groans she was emitting.

He could feel himself getting closer to his release and he tried to hold it off for as long as possible. He felt Lilly shaking against him and she cried out as her orgasm hit her. Her nails dug into his shoulder and Scotty groaned in pleasure. After a few more minutes he joined her in ecstasy and collapsed back on the pillows.

"That was amazing" Lilly muttered as she slid off him and pillowed her head on his shoulder.

"I missed that" Scotty replied sleepily.

"Me too" Lilly added as she pressed a kiss to his shoulder and closed her eyes.

When Lilly next opened her eyes it was to a sharp stabbing pain in her lower back. She slowly sat up and rubbed her back before climbing out of bed. She must have been lying in a weird position for the past few hours and that's why her back was in spasm she thought as she sat down on the edge of the bath and started to run the water. A nice warm soak in the tub will relief some of the intense pain. As she slid beneath the hot water her back muscles went into spasm again and she winced. After a few minutes the pain subsided and Lilly felt a lot better. She thought back over the last few hours, the fantastic sex she had just had with her husband, the way he held her as they slept and the feeling of complete comfort she felt waking up in his arms. She couldn't wait until her daughter made her appearance and she and Scotty would be a real family.

Scotty smiled in contentment as he slowly opened his eyes; he hadn't woken up this satisfied in a long time. He rolled over, wondering if Lilly wanted to have another go around with him before they had to go to the hospital to be induced. But Lilly wasn't in bed with him.

"Lil?" He called out into the darkness as he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes. "Lilly, where are you?" He received no response but he could hear something coming from the bathroom, it sounded like crying.

He was on his feet and he walked as quickly towards the bathroom as he could, having just woken up. As he pushed open the door, he found Lilly sitting in the bathtub, breathing rather heavily as she doubled over, her hands rubbing over her back.

"Lil, are you ok?" Scotty asked in concern.

"I am fine, just back pain" Lilly reassured him although she looked like she was in a lot more pain than she was letting on.

"It looks a whole lot more than back pain sweetheart. I think you're in labour"

Lilly shook her head as she lay back in the bath, her pain evidently subsiding "That's ridiculous, my water hasn't broken. It's just cramps or muscle spasms" she insisted.

Scotty's brown knitted in disbelief and he sat down on the edge of the bath "How often are the spasms happening?"

"Every five minutes or so I think" Lilly replied "It's nothing"

Scotty sighed "I'll feel better if you get check out by a doctor Lil, come on I'll help you out" He held out a hand and Lilly realised that he wouldn't go away until she allowed him to take her to the hospital and prove to him she wasn't in labour. They had to be there in a few hours anyway.

"Fine" Lilly replied as she took his hand and pulled herself to her feet. Scotty smiled and pressed a kiss to her cheek. He wrapped a towel around her as she climbed out of the bath. Just as Lilly's feet hit the cold floor of her bathroom she felt the pressure in her abdomen increase and then all of a sudden a gush of water came out from between her legs. "Oh God" she exclaimed in panic as Scotty leapt out of the way "my water just broke!"

Scotty bit his tongue. Normally he would have gloated about the fact that he was indeed right, but now was not the time. He had to get Lilly to the hospital right now. He helped her across the room and the two of them got dressed and grab her hospital bag before heading outside.

They had just reached the car when Lilly doubled over in another contraction "Maybe you should sit in the back Lil" he said as she made to sit in the front "might be better on your back for you if you can stretch out" Lilly nodded as the pain ripped through her and Scotty helped her into the car and did her seatbelt around her. "I'll get us there as soon as I can, ok?"

Lilly nodded again "just hurry" Lilly replied as her contraction stopped.

Scotty didn't need to be told twice, his nickname in the academy had been lead foot and he was going to live up to that name, right now.
