p class="MsoNormal"Will and Nat's – Downstairs/p
p class="MsoNormal"Erin and Jay are sitting on the couch each holding a baby. Kim had taken a spot in a recliner. Jay sees Kim with a grimace on her face rubbing her back./p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Kim are you ok?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Yeah, my back is bothering me a bit. Pregnancy aches and Pains and all. Plus a couple of different positions I put myself in to help Nat./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- I get that but Mom and Dad will be back so you will have a couple of weeks of peace before you have your little one./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Speaking of little ones when do I get to meet my other little Halstead niece?/p
p class="MsoNormal"Erin and Jay look at each other talking to each other with their eyes./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Ok You two stop. I have missed you so much, Erin. But I have not missed you two doing that./p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Doing what?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Talking with your eyes/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Oh do not start with us. I have been in the bullpen with you and Adam recently/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Fine anyway what was that weird little thing./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- We will tell you later. Today is about these two./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- I will hold you to that Adam is here we are going to step into the kitchen/p
p class="MsoNormal"Kim heads to the front door and drags Adam into the Kitchen without a moment for Erin to say anything./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- What is that all about?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Not completely sure but I am worried that Kim is having contractions./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Her back?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Yeah that is how your labor started and I have been watching her./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- and?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- It isn't regular but it is in spurts/p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Do you want to alert Adam or should I?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Why don't you go talk to her? Send Adam back with Cat./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Can you distract him long enough?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- I think a 2supnd/sup baby will blow his mind long enough./p
p class="MsoNormal" /p
p class="MsoNormal"Meanwhile in the kitchen/p
p class="MsoNormal"R- What's up, Kim/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- That was Amazing being here with them all day. Will just helped Nat relax and he made sure the baby was ok the whole time without making it clinical I want that./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- But how?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- I am going to ask Nat if she will be up to it and have Will help/p
p class="MsoNormal"R- That sounds good. This is all you. Your comfort is the most important. I am happy to help you be as comfortable as you can be through it./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- I want Erin there as well./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- I think she would love that./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Hey Adam/p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Erin how are you feeling?/p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Good. Would you take this little one and go hang out with Jay I just want to talk to Kim real quick./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Sure. But why didn't you just leave the baby with Jay?br /E- Adam just take her and go, please. You haven't changed one bit, have you./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Of course not Linds. Why would I?/p
p class="MsoNormal"Adam takes Cat from Erin kissing her on the forehead and headed to the Living room./p
p class="MsoNormal"*In the Living Room/p
p class="MsoNormal"Adam made it to the Living room and got about halfway to the couch to join Jay. When he looked up and noticed Jay also had a baby in his arms./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Wait, What?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Surprise there are two babies./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Did you know she was having twins?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- No, neither did they/p
p class="MsoNormal"R- But wait they are doctors./p
p class="MsoNormal"N- Thank you, Adam, we are well aware of that. Jay, would you hand me him? He hasn't had his first feeding/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Of course/p
p class="MsoNormal"Will gets Nat settled in a chair with a Nursing pillow and blanket to cover. Jay hands over the New little boy to her./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- So care to explain/p
p class="MsoNormal"W- When everyone gets here. We only want to go through everything once until then cuddle your niece./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Will do Jay. How was your drive?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Long. Erin can't drive until she is released for work so we brought Amanda back with us. We push through the whole thing without stopping./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- I am surprised you didn't get a ticket./p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Yeah we tried to keep it down since we had the girls with us. No one wanted to explain that ticket to Hank./p
p class="MsoNormal"N- I could understand that one. He is scary when it comes to his family./p
p class="MsoNormal"J- You don't have to explain that to me. Remember I am the one married to his daughter./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- And how it was so much fun to watch that whole thing sadly he is over /J- Your just sad he moved on to you after you got Kim pregnant./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Just wait till you get Erin pregnant again and take her out of the action then it will come back around./p
p class="MsoNormal"J- You forgot a crucial part of your thought./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- What is that?/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- Mom won't let him. If he does. Erin just has to let it drop in front of mom and I am home free./p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Boss's Pet/p
p class="MsoNormal"J- I prefer the boss's son-in-law/p
p class="MsoNormal"R- Whatever bosses pet./p
p class="MsoNormal"Meanwhile in the Kitchen. Erin hugs Kim as well as she can with her belly./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- So about a month?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Give or take. The doctor said it could be anytime because the baby is a little bigger. I blame Adam./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- I am so happy you two figured it out. This baby is going to be so cute./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- That it is. Speaking of the baby. After being here all day and watching the peacefulness. We decided to have the baby at home too and we want you there./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- of course, I would love too. But who is going to be there I am not into the idea of having to use my training on you?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Will and Nat hopefully we haven't asked./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- I am sure they would love to. How often are you having contractions?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- I'm not! My back is just sore./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- I was there when Jay asked about your back just now. That is how my labor started that is why Jay asked. Would you let Will check you and put a monitor on you for a bit? It has been a long 2 weeks for you from what I heard./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Fine go get Will./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Thank you./p
p class="MsoNormal"Erin hurries to the living room./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Will can I have your assistance with a dish on the top shelf that Kim and I can't reach./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- Jay do you mind./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- No will, you please./p
p class="MsoNormal"Erin using her eyes trying to let Will that it isn't about a dish and she needs him for her stubborn friend./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- Fine Erin, I will drag myself away from my children and wife for something Jay could help you with./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Thank you./p
p class="MsoNormal"Once Will and Erin return to the Kitchen Erin sees Kim Grimicing and rubbing her back again and looks down at her watch./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Kim that was 10 minutes. Same as the last one. Tell us the truth how long have you been having them./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Started about when you and Jay got here./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- That was 3 hours ago why didn't you say anything./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Because I thought it was nothing./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- Wait a second you two let me get this straight. Kim, you have been having contractions for the last 3 hours or so and now they are about 10 minutes apart./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Yes/p
p class="MsoNormal"W- How strong are they./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- They are still mild./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- How far along are you again?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- 2 days away from 37 weeks./p
p class="MsoNormal"W- Well at least there is that. Erin take her to the downstairs bedroom. I am going to grab a couple of things from upstairs and get Adam./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Do we have to tell Adam?/p
p class="MsoNormal"Erin can see Will's sleep deprivation affecting his patience. She looks at him and rolls her eyes./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Kim we are telling Adam. Will go get your stuff./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- But Erin./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Don't start with us. I just got out of the hospital and then was on a road trip from NY to Chicago with my husband, Amanda, and my daughter and sister. I am exhausted./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Sorry I didn't think about it, Erin. I just don't want to ruin this for Nat and Will./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- They know it is out of your control. Come this way we will avoid the living room. Give Will a change to calm Adam before he flips on you./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- He is going to be mad. I didn't say anything for 3 hours./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Are you admitted you should have?/p
p class="MsoNormal"K- maybe a little./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- Maybe something best be kept between us. So my brother-in-law doesn't lose it on you. As well as your Husband./p
p class="MsoNormal"K- Thanks, Erin. I am glad you are here for this./p
p class="MsoNormal"E- It is good to be home with Family I missed everyone while I was in New York./p
