The day had been full of friends, family, and even co-workers. Although
baby grace enjoyed it, Kathryn wasn't feeling so hot after the dozens of
visitors. People were in and out all day. By the end of the day, the only
person still by her side was Sorrow.
"Mother and child will have to stay the night for observation, but don't worry Captain Sorrow. Both mother and child are healthy at the moment." Kathryn opened her eyes.
"Must you always talk about me like I'm not here doctor?" The doctor's face looked surprised.
"I apologize, I thought you were asleep." Kathryn smiled at the doctor.
"Don't worry, personally I'm to tired to care." Her husband looked at her she nodded back giving him the sign that it was okay for him to leave. The doctor left the room giving them privacy. Sorrow bent down and whispered in to her ear.
"Sleep tight." He then kissed her eyes shut and she fell into a deep slumber.
Hours had passed and the doctor was currently somewhere else in the medical headquarters building. Due to security reasons security teams blocked off the doors.
Not one life form was to be allowed through the doors. Security was increased in the building also just in case someone somehow got pass the guards by the door.
Unfortunately is wasn't useful at keeping the most annoying visitor out, Q.
"Well look at that, you're the cutest baby I've seen in the continuum. Your even cuter than junior when he was a baby."
The baby only laughed at his presence. He smiled.
"You must be the only one in the universe that doesn't hate me right now."
The infant yawned and looked at him as if she agreed. Q was over taken by a real and non-superficial emotion, love.
Q rocked the infant. Q's pacing woke Kathryn up. She dared not make a sound because she didn't know whom the person was. Q carefully placed the infant against his back. He caressed her head lightly and began to sing. Kathryn was mesmerized by the euphonious sound. His voice was beautiful and so was the song. It was sung in a language she couldn't recognize. Kathryn's eyes wondered around the room and accidentally landed on the intruder. However, he was no stranger, it was Q. Kathryn tried to prop her self up but she was at a loss of energy. Snap Q apeared right next to the bio-bed.
"Please allow me." He said in a soft voice. Snap Kathryn was propped up by a few pillows that permitted her to see Q and the infant.
"Q?" she whispered.
"Why of course Kathy, I couldn't risk being the only one not seeing you today. Besides it's the birthday of my goddaughter." Kathryn sighed. It was Tom and B'Lana all over again, same plot just different people.
"Please Kathy, can't you see the way she looks at me. We were meant for each other!"
Kathryn didn't know what to say. No one else had offered considering the fact that everyone decided early on that both Miral and Grace were going to be brought up in an extended family. May be she was still feeling the affects of the drugs but some how the words slipped out.
"Why not." Had she lost her mind? Q's face was stuck in a strange position.
"Really Kathy?" Again she confirmed what she had said by shaking her head.
"Well something inside of me says that I should be grateful and walk away. I wouldn't want you to revoke this honor-us position you've bestowed on me with in only hours. I could at least wait a few days."
"Q" Kathryn said agitatedly. There was a beeping sound. Q stared silently at the machine next to the bio-bed.
"Your vital signs are still being monitored." He grinned, "That gives me an idea. Now Kathy, watch your current heart rate." He said with enthusiasm. "Now what happens if I do this?" With that Q threw the infant into the air. The beeping of the machine speed up. Q caught the baby and laughed.
"You know Kathy, your so easy to get to." snap with that Q was gone. The baby was back in her incubator. A sound echoed through the room.
"Kisses" Kathryn rolled her eyes. Kathryn sighed
"So much for sleep, I appreciate it Q." she half yelled have mumbled the sentence hoping he heard some of what she had said.
