Disclaimer: I own nothing except my imagination
A/N:Ok so I had this idea floating in my head for a while now but this weeks clip of Adam and Kim talking baby pushed me to finally find time to write so I hope it doesn't suck too bad.
"Come on Kim, you've been in there forever." Adam knocked lightly on the door.
"Not long enough." Came Kim's reply.
"I know that trying for a second baby isn't going as smoothly as it did with Allie but you've got to let me in." They had been trying for over a year and she still wasn't pregnant.
"No shit." He could hear the irritation in her voice loud and clear.
"Please darling." He leaned his forehead against the door, pleading in his voice. He heard the clicking of the knob and took a step back.
"I'm scared to even look." Her voice was cracking and Adam could see tears forming in her eyes.
"Hey, it's going to be okay." He pulled her gently into his arms.
"What if I can't get pregnant again?" She mumbled into his neck.
"No way!" His voice was steady and reassuring. "We're way too awesome for that and we make cute babies." He said into the crown of her hair.
"I agree that Allie pie is awesome." She smiled into his chest.
"Where is she anyways?" He was trying to distract Kim while they waited.
"With Zoe. She planned this whole evening with nail polish and glitter."
"Oh boy." He chuckled. "Can't wait to see that."
"She loves playing with her cousin."
"That she does. Are you ready?"
"No."
"We'll do it together." He kissed her forehead. He slipped his fingers through hers and he guided her towards the sink she the pregnancy test was lying face down.
"I'm scared of what the results will be. I'm not sure I can take another negative one."
"I'll be right there with you." He hated all the negative ones they had in the last year but he needed to be strong for Kim through it all. He took the white and blue stick between his fingers, trying to control the slight tremor in it.
"What does it say?" She squeezed his hand in Support, knowing that he was as emotionally fragile as she was right now. "Adam." She added a bit more forcefully because his eyes were glued to the stick.
"It says that Allie is going to be a big sister." He picked Kim up, making her squeal as he spun her around.
"I can't believe it's actually happening." Fresh tears were falling against her cheeks. "I've been dreaming about this for so long but never thought it would happen again."
"It's totally happening." He couldn't contain his laugh. He lowered himself on his knees and pressed soft kisses over the fabric of her rib. "Hey raisin baby, it's your daddy." Kim ran her fingers through Adam's hair. He closed his eyes at the simple gesture and exhaled deeply. "We've waited a long time for you but we love you so very much."
"You just won the daddy jackpot." Her other hand was running against her flat stomach.
"Don't listen to your mommy, she's the amazing parent." He pressed a soft kiss to the middle of her abs. "But just wait until you meet your big sister. She is going to be crazy in love with you and you are going to have a whole family to love you." He pressed one last kiss before standing up. "Alright darling, you are with me on the couch."
"Adam, I'm fine."
"I know but we are going to enjoy a quiet night together while we still can."
"Fine." Adam pulled her gently towards the living room and he plopped down, bringing her with him, Kim settling her head in his lap. "I can't believe this is really happening." She whispered it, afraid that saying it out loud would jynx them.
"I know you're scared but everything is going to be okay."
"And you know that how?" Her eyes were closed as he ran his fingers through her hair.
"Because my wife is bad ass and this baby is going to be just like her."
"I hope it's a little boy just like you." She opened her eyes and looked at him.
"We're in trouble now." He chuckled. "I was not an easy kid."
"I know for a fact that is a lie."
"Trust me, dad doesn't know everything. I just knew how not to get caught." He chuckled. He got into all kinds of trouble as a kid that his dad knew nothing about and he was only hoping that if they had a son, it wouldn't be that way.
"You'll have to tell me about them then."
"We have plenty of time for that. When do you want to tell the rest of the team?" This discussion had been a fight the first time around and he was hoping that wouldn't be the case this time around.
"I want to be selfish about it but I don't think they'd ever let me live it down if I went on the field and got hurt. And you'll be blaming yourself if something happens to me while I'm out there." She trailed off.
"I'm sorry I got so angry last time but I was always so nervous and scared every time you went out there."
"I know. That's why I want to tell them next shift."
"You know that Upton will be all over you right?"
"I know." She snorted. "She's been up my ass asking when we're going to make a second baby Burzek ever since Allie was born."
"That's cuz she and Halstead keep popping them out." The three Halstead boys were already a force to reckon with at only 4, 3 and 1.
"And what about you? What happens after this baby?" They hadn't really talked about how many kids they wanted.
"I'd fill this house with loads of babies if it was just up to me but doing the job that we do, you really need to think of the kind of life we can give them."
"Do you think I'm being selfish for wanting more?"
"There is nothing selfish about you Kim Burgess." He fingered her hair out of her forehead. "I'll make you as many babies as you want." He smiled lovingly at her.
"Happy to hear that. How about that movie?"
"Yes ma'am." Adam found a thriller on tv and they watched until Kim fell asleep on his lap. He scooped her up gently and settled her under the covers before getting some cleaning done, turning in himself, the following day being a big one.
Kim woke up and slipped out of bed, letting Adam sleep a few minutes more. She was grateful for no morning sickness right now as she moved around the kitchen, getting food and coffee ready before going to wake Adam up.
"What are you doing already awake?" He pulled down into bed with him.
"I fell asleep pretty early, I'm all rested up." She kissed him. "Breakfast is ready in ten minutes." She pushed herself away from his embrace. "Just enough time for you to shower."
"I'll be right out darling." He put his arms behind his head as he watched her leave. He smiled at himself, knowing a new life was growing inside of her. He pushed his covers away and headed for the shower. He made it quick, knowing they needed to talk to the team as soon as they went in. He slipped a shirt over his head as he walked into the kitchen. The table was already set and Kim was bringing two cups of coffee with her.
"Food is ready babe."
"Come here first." He pulled her by the waist as she put both plates on the table.
"What are you doing?" She giggled as he lifted her shirt up.
"Having a conversation with our raisin baby." He pressed a kiss to Kim's stomach.
"Raisin baby?" She laughed at Adam's judgement of the size of their baby.
"Yeah, it can't be that big." He looked up at her. "Isn't that right baby?" He whispered. "Now you and I need to have a serious talk."
"Do you now?"
"Oh yeah, just you and me." His thumb drew small circle's on Kim's skin. "Today is a big day for mommy so I need you to play nice so she can do her job really good."
"Adam, I'm going to be fine." She laughed. "No morning sickness for this mom."
"Let's eat to that." Kim sat down and they ate in light conversation, wondering how everyone would react to the news.
The drove into the twenty first in Adam's truck and walked up the stairs hand in hand to be greeted by Platt.
"Well if it isn't my favourite couple."
"Morning Sarge." Kim smiled. "You have a minutes to come up with us?"
"And why would I do that?"
"Oh you definitely don't want to miss this."
"Give me ten minutes to get these knuckleheads in order and I'll be right up." Adam tapped the front desk and he and Kim walked up to the bullpen where everyone was already moving around.
"Ruz my man. You got to get those reports under control" The stack on Adam's desk was starting to show signs of wanting to tumble.
"I know, don't remind me." He plopped on his chair.
"I need them done by the end of shift Ruzek." Voight came out of his office.
"Yeah, sure thing boss." He eyed Kim and winked at her.
"So what's going on here that needs me up here?"
"Burgess and I actually have something that we want to tell you guys." Adam leaned against his desk and took Kim's hand in his.
"I'm pregnant." Kim's smile was infectious and Hailey was wrapping her in a hug while Kevin pulled Adam in his arms, the rest of the team whistling and hollering behind them.
"Come on blondie, hands off Burgess." Platt was impatient and Hailey did as instructed, not wanting the desk sergeant on her bad side.
"Finally baby Ruzek number two." Platt pulled Kim into a tight hug.
"So you get to play grandma again."
"Hell yeah I do. Mouch and I will be more than happy to look after this one too."
"Thanks Trudy. That's where I need to ask for a favour." The noise around then quieted down briefly.
"Anything for you Burgess. You know you're my favourite."
"If anyone asks I'll deny it." Kim laughed.
"Atta girl. So what about that favour?"
"Adam and I talked and we decided that I would sit this one out entirely."
"Are you sure that's what you want Burgess?" Voight challenged her decision, wanting to make sure she had thought it through.
"Yeah Sarge, I'm okay with it."
"Good then you'll be with me downstairs, I'll keep you occupied." Trudy promised. "And I'll make sure you get some action too."
"Thanks Sarge."
"Tonight Molly's. First round is on me." Kevin announced over the noise.
"I've got second." Halstead called after. "About time they gave us a run for our money."
"Alright, enough about drink talk and babies, we just got a case." Voight came out of his office. "Tenth and Wabash." Everyone grabbed their coats and was ready to go.
"Have a good day you two." Adam pressed a hand on her belly and a kiss to lips before everyone went out of the bullpen.
"They'll be fine." Trudy patted Kim's shoulder. "Let's go. You're with me."
Kim was propped on her couch with a book in hand later in the evening. Trudy had dropped her off after Adam had told her the case would take longer than expecting. She wanted desperately to have a drink but knew that she couldn't so she settled on non alcoholic wine.
"Hey darling, are you awake?" Adam was received with silence so he walked to the living room and found Kim sleeping in the couch. "Looks like you're more tired than you're letting on." He whispered into the dark. He dropped his bag by the couch and kneeled in front of it, next to Kim. "Hey baby." He gently raised Kim's shirt higher against her belly. "I'm your daddy. We've waited a long time for you. We were sad that you weren't growing inside your mom's tummy for so long and I know that you're no bigger than a rice grain but we love you so very much already. And wait until your big sister Allie finds out about you in the morning, she'll be in love with you as much as we are. Want to know the best thing? Your mommy is a bad ass and she's the reason we are so strong, as a family. I can't wait to meet you in nine months baby Ruzek, I love you." He leaned closer and pressed his lips to Kim's stomach.
"We love you too." Kim's voice was hoarse from sleep but she had heard every word Adam had said to their unborn child. "Aren't you supposed to be at Molly's?" She ran her fingers through his hair.
"Hey but I wanted to be with my girl instead."
"Help me in bed?"
"Yeah." He scooped her up in his arms.
"Adam, put me down." She giggled, holding onto his neck for support.
"I'll put the two of you down safely in bed." She simply let her head fall against his chest until he lowered her on the mattress.
"Thank you."
"No thank you." He stripped and laid down next to her. "Thank you for giving me another chance to be a dad."
"We can finally have the bigger family we always wanted, I love you."
"I love you too darling." Their lips locked in a tender kiss until they parted for air, finally able to write the next chapter of their lives.
