Chapter 28

Courtney's body immediately filled with fear. Her water had just broken, and she was home alone.

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she regretted the fight her and Jason had just had. She wished he was here right now, so she didn't have to be scared.

But he wasn't here, and she was scared.

She took in a deep breath and thought. Ok, what did Carly do when Morgan was born? She took deep breaths and stayed calm, Courtney thought to herself.

After about twenty minutes of deep breathing, Courtney had felt two more cramped pains in her abdomen. They were contractions, and they were a total of 12 minutes.

"Ok, kids," Courtney said, "Obviously you're not going to wait that long to get into this world!! But Mommy needs to get to a phone, first, ok?"

She tried to prop herself up off of the couch so she could get to the phone on the desk by the door. But as soon as she tried to move, pain filled her entire body, and she cried out. She collapsed back on the couch.

A single tear made its way down her face. "Where is your Daddy, little ones," she said softly rubbing her abdomen," Come on Jason, come back to me. I need you right now."

After Jason had left the penthouse, he went to the docks by Kelly's. He went here a lot, when he was feeling confused or angry.

It was the middle of March, and chunks of ice still floated in the water. The air was still cold and stiff, but Jason didn't mind.

Thoughts from their fight were still playing through his head. He couldn't believe some of the things she had said. Partly because most of them were true. Looking back on the past few weeks, he had let his work take over his life. And even if he had had time to spend with Courtney, he would make up excuses not to be with her.

And look where it had gotten them now. They were fighting, Courtney was pregnant..

And then the light bulb in his head seemed to turn on, and he realized he had left his 8th month old pregnant wife at home, alone.

Instantly Jason raced from the docks to the apartment, and when he reached the elevator he was sweating from being nervous. If anything had happened to Courtney while he was gone, he would never forgive himself.

He reached their level, and when he stepped out into the hallway, he heard a yelp of pain coming from their apartment. All of Jason's fears were then confirmed. Something was wrong with Courtney.

Jason opened the door and stood in horror. Courtney was lying on the couch, hunched over in the fetal position, and she was sobbing quiet tears.

Jason ran over to Courtney and when she saw him relief washed over her body. He had come back for her.

"Jason," she said faintly.

"Courtney, I'm here. What's wrong?" he said.

"The twins. They're coming," she said. At that moment another contraction occurred and she yelled out.

"Get me to the hospital, Jason. Now!" she cried out.

Jason picked her up in his arms and carried her to the door. They got on the elevator, which didn't seem to be moving at all. But finally they reached the ground, and Jason rushed Courtney to the car.

He drove as fast as he ever had before. Courtney's contractions were getting closer, and her clothes were drenched in sweat.

Finally they reached the E.R.

A nurse rushed over, and realizing that Jason was holding a pregnant woman, rushed off to get a wheelchair.

"I'm sorry for hiding your cell phone, Jason. I just wanted to spend time with you," Courtney said faintly.

"It doesn't matter anymore. I just want you and the babies to be fine. That's all I've ever wanted," Jason said. Courtney smiled and just squeezed his hand.

Finally the nurse came back with a wheel chair and carted Courtney away, and Jason waited out in the lobby to call Carly and Sonny quick. Then he would go to the delivery room.

"Corinthos," said Sonny on the other end.

"Sonny, its Jason. Courtney's in labor. Get to General Hospital," Jason said.

"I'm on my way," Sonny said. They both hung up and then Jason called Carly.

"Hey it's Carly," she said in her regular cheery voice.

"Carly it's Jason. Courtney just went into labor so get to the hospital as soon as possible."

"What, she did?!? Ok I'm on my way!" Carly said.

He hung up and then turned to go to the delivery room, excited and nervous about what lied ahead.
