Chapter 55
AN: Well Guys, I think this will be the last chapter. I am going to miss Olivia. I have come to really like her, and I hope she will show up again somewhere. And thank you all, so much, for taking this journey with me. I hope you enjoyed the ride. Thanks again, Jackie
"How are we going to do this, Kevin?" Olivia asked looking at the sonogram. "I know we were supposed to bet married and have a baby. One child…but this? Are we ready?"
Kevin looked at her. "They're healthy the doctor said. We waited the three months, like she recommended. She's ran tests. I think…I think we are."
"I thought we would space them out a little, Kevin. You know, a year or two between…." She looked at him pleading. "We just got a dog." Olivia pouted.
Kevin couldn't help but laugh. "The dog will not hurt our children."
"No, she'll either pee on them or lick them to death." Olivia sighed as she got up from the examination table.
They were quiet for a moment as Kevin helped Olivia get dressed.
"Oh, my job. I can just see me now, waddling around the courtroom with my ginormous belly." She looked at Kevin. "How is anybody going to take me seriously?"
"I'm sure there have been other pregnant JAG lawyers." Kevin replied.
"Not as pregnant as me." She said.
"And don't forget." Kevin said. "We still have lots of people to tell. Nobody even knows you're pregnant, much less…this pregnant."
Olivia nodded. "I know. How do you break that type of news?" She said as they left the building and walked to the car.
"We'll figure it out." Kevin replied.

Tony closed his phone, got up from his desk and went to meet his daughter.
Tony smiled at Olivia. "This looks familiar." Tony said. They were standing in the same hall at the same place they were, about 9 years ago, when Tony found out he was a dad.
Olivia smiled, even as the tears ran down her cheeks. But they were happy tears. "I just thought it would be a very fitting place to…to let you know…."
"What's wrong, Baby Girl?" Tony asked hugging her tightly.
Tony could feel her shaking her head as she broke the hug.
Olivia was still smiling as she wiped her eyes. "I figured…you found out you were a father here. I just thought it would be the perfect place to tell you that…you're going to be a grandfather."
Tony just stood for a second. His brain was still processing.
"What?"
Olivia nodded. She hugged him again, tightly. "…in about 6 months."
"Oh my…,you're kidding me!" Tony looked at her. "I can't…." He stopped mid-rant. "What aren't you telling me?"
Olivia grinned. She couldn't hide anything from him. "It's good. I promise."
"You're sure?" Tony asked.
Olivia nodded.
"You're gonna make me wait?"
Olivia nodded again.
"How long?" Tony inquired.
"A few months…."
"Come on, what is it?" Tony asked.
Olivia smiled. "Can you get everybody down to Abby's lab?"
"Right now?"
Olivia nodded.
"Nice change of subject there." Tony replied. "I'll go tell everybody to go on down." He said, leaving her in the back hall.
Olivia joined everybody downstairs about 10 minutes later. She broke the news to everybody. But she still kept that one very important secret to herself.
Kevin and Olivia took a few days off and visited with Kevin's parents. Before long, she figured, it might not be too safe for her to fly. They were absolutely thrilled and promised to come and stay awhile after the baby was born. Olivia confirmed the news to her mom. Sallie had guessed when Olivia had come for dinner the last time and Sallie had caught her standing in the frig door eating. She had excused herself, she said, to go to the bathroom. Sallie told Olivia she had done the same thing with all three of her pregnancies. Sallie was thrilled she was going to be a grandmother. But Olivia still had not told anybody the big secret.
Olivia worked, her growing belling leading the way, as she walked around the courtroom defending cases. She ended up spending the last month in bed. She was so big, the doctor said she needed to rest, considering the chore she would have ahead of her.
And a month later Olivia gave birth to Anthony Jethro (AJ) Moore, Sallie Abigail Moore, and Donald Jacob (DJ) Moore. Names chosen to honor the people who meant the most to them, it helped that Kevin's parents were named Abigail and Donald.

Tony was the first to go in, donning a gown and gloves. He was the first visitor to hold the Moore triplets. The nurse instructed him to sit down in the chair as three nurses surrounded him with babies. They each carefully put the three tiny, 6 pound bundles in his arms. Tears filled Tony's eyes. He would have been thrilled to have one grandbaby. He was overjoyed to now be holding three.
"Welcome to the world, Little Ones. I'm your Grandpa Tony."
THE END
End Notes: I could be persuaded to write an epilogue. Anyone interested? Let me know.
