Hey all, look, I got another chapter done! Moving it up the timeline again,
so it's 2 months in the future. Oh, and I have no clue at all when Carly's
birthday is, but since it's my story, and I have total power over it, I'm
saying it's September 2nd ( Lol, I like being in control of things for
once). Anyway, please review!
~*~ Chapter 15 ~*~
Courtney and Jason walked into, or rather, Jason walked, Courtney waddled, into 'The Cellar' and tried to spot Carly over all the people in the room. Carly had decided to throw a big party at her club for her birthday, and surprisingly, almost everyone in town had shown up. Courtney finally saw Carly over at the bar, and made a beeline for her, Jason following.
" Hey, Carly! Happy birthday!" Courtney said, hugging her.
" Thanks, Sweetie! Hey, shouldn't you be at home? Your due date is in less than a week."
" That's what I told her, but I got in trouble."
" Ha, I never thought I'd see the day when Jason Morgan would cower in fear of a woman. You are so whipped."
Jason blushed a little as Courtney and Carly laughed.
" Where's Sonny? I want to talk to him."
" He's at a table somewhere."
" Ok, I'll be back soon," Jason said, kissing Courtney before leaving to find Sonny.
" So, seriously, are you ok? Should you sit down or something?"
" I'm fine Carly. Wow, this place is packed."
" I know, I didn't think so many people would show up. So, are you sure you're ok? I mean, you're not having any contractions or anything?"
" Carly, you're almost as bad as Jason! And I'm fine, other than the fact that I'm as big as a house."
" Oh, you are not! You look beautiful."
" I second that," Jason said, coming up behind Courtney and putting his arms around her.
" And I third it," added Sonny.
" Thanks, but you guys don't count."
" Seriously, you're the most gorgeous woman here," Jason said truthfully.
" Ahem, what about me?"
" Besides Carly. She's a close second."
" You know what? Because you're my friend, and it's Courtney you're talking to, I'll let that slide."
" Thanks. So, my beautiful fiancé," Jason said, leading her away from Sonny and Carly, " Would you like to dance?"
" I'd love to, but I'll have to take a rain check."
" Aw, why?"
" Because my water just broke."
" What? Your water broke? We have to get you to the hospital! Why didn't you tell me you were having contractions?"
" Jason, calm down! We have time. I didn't tell you because I knew you'd freak out, just like you're doing now. Besides, they haven't been that bad," she finished, just as a strong contraction hit, " Ow, shit, ok, I lied, they hurt."
" Sonny, Carly!" Jason called.
Both came running over.
" Courtney's in labor. I need to take her to the hospital."
" Courtney! You said you weren't having any contractions!"
" Technically, I didn't. I just said I was fine."
Carly rolled her eyes.
" Ok, I'll have Ric close up, we're coming with you."
" But Carly, it's your birthday party! I don't want you to miss it on account of me."
" What could be a better gift than having your niece be born? What a story we'll be able to tell her when she gets older!"
Ok, sorry so short, but hey, I updated it! I'm in the process of writing chapter 16, but I'm a little stuck. I'll try to post it tomorrow. Please review! 3 ya!
