(Mac's POV)
I sat down with Trey on the bed, and waited for the doctor to come. Harm was on the phone with his mother, trying to convince her that she doesn't need to come down. He came back in the room, looking sleep deprived, but with one of his genuine flyboy smiles on his face.
"I trust mom isn't coming down?"
"No, but she is going to come down to the house latter."
"Okay."
"Where's the doctor?"
"Right here," the doctor said walking in.
"Is he okay, doctor?" I said trying to keep the tremor out of my voice.
"The alcohol is out of his system, and we're positive that they'll be no lasting effects. He is one healthy boy."
Harm and I both gave a sigh of relief, when the doctor continued. "The nurse will be in to check him out."
"Thank you doctor," Harm said, shaking his hand.
"Thank you," I echoed.
As soon as the doctor left, Harm took Trey out of my arms and lifted him in the air. Trey squealed with delight, and Harm did it again.
We walked down to the nurses station, when we saw two all familiar faces rush by.
"What do we have?" A doctor shouted meeting them at the door.
"Harriet Roberts, eight months pregnant, collapsed thirty minutes ago, prolapsed cord-" He said while they rushed into a trauma room.
"Oh my God," Harm whispered, "Not again."
By the time we got to the trauma room, Harriet was on her way up to surgery.
"What happened, Bud?"
"Sir! Ma'am! Harriet collapsed, the umbilical cord is prolapsed, and they have to take her up to surgery for an emergency c-section." He ran to catch up with the doctors as they got in the elevators.
"God, Harm, this can't be happening again! Haven't they gone though enough already?"
He didn't answer me, but grabbed my arm, and led me towards the stairs.
(Sturgis's POV)
We were silent on the way to the hospital, each of us lost in our own thoughts. I for one was glad that Trey was found, and that we had caught Joe. I didn't know a lot about Mac's past, but I know that she and her father hadn't spoken in a long time. I rubbed both of my hands together, with the Gunny looking on.
"You should get your hand looked at sir."
"I'm fine Gunny."
(A/N: Didn't think it was him, did ya?)
"Don't make it an order Captain."
"No sir."
Ten minutes latter, the silence was broken, by the sound of the Admiral's cell phone.
"Chegwidden."
Silence
"What is it Rabb?"
I listened more intently now at the mention of Harm's name.
"Wait slow down, what? Okay, okay. Yeah, we'll be there shortly."
I wait a second after he hung up to ask, "Sir?"
He let out a long sigh, and cursed silently.
"Harriet was rushed to the emergency room earlier today. There were some complications, and they have to do an emergency c-section."
"Not again." Gunny moaned.
"What do you mean?"
While Gunny filled me in on what happened with baby Sarah, Webb raced to get to the hospital. I closed my eyes, and said a silent prayer for Harriet and the twins.
