Chapter Thirty Seven
"You were right, Kare. This was a night I wont ever forget," Jack commented, as he leaned back on the pillows, extremely exhausted. "Aww Poodle, did I wear you out?" she asked, trailing a finger down his chin. She crawled on top of him and began leaving kisses on his chest. "Gosh Karen, you're up for more?" he asked, raising his brows. "What's this? Jack McFarland too tired for sex?" she asked back, as he chuckled. "Never," he answered, wrapping his arms around her and pulling her in for a passionate kiss.
When they finally arrived home, they weren't at all surprised to see Carter, Will and Grace all sitting in the living room. When Carter saw the both of the, she leaped up to her feet. "Where have you two been!" she exclaimed, both worried and frustrated. "Well...We got married," Karen said happily, as she and Jack smiled wide. "Really?" Will and Grace asked in unison. "Yep, isn't it great?" Jack asked back, kissing his wife's cheek. "No, it isn't great. What about your family? No one was there to witness it," Carter answered, crossing her arms. "You don't need to worry about that. Jack and I will have an actual formal wedding in a few months," Karen said proudly. Carter blew out a relieved breath and hugged her sister . "Congratulations," she said, as they all hugged each other.

"Although you have horrible taste, Jack and I would love for you to design our wedding," Karen said, as Grace gave her a smile. "Aww Karen, you're so sweet," she replied sarcastically. "I already told you the colors we want. A mellow yellow and white," Karen said, as she plopped herself in her seat. "Yeah, I know. I've got a perfect setting I want to show you as well," Grace replied, grabbing her briefcase. She unzipped it, but suddenly dropped it and grabbed her stomach. She let out a scream as she slowly sat on her seat. "Honey, what's going on?" Karen asked, frightened. "I think the baby is coming!" Grace yelled, as Karen shook her head frantically. "That's not possible. You've still got a month," she said. "Haven't you ever heard of prematurity?" Grace asked, as she let out some more screams. "I'll call Wilma," Karen answered, grabbing the phone. She looked at Grace one last time before dialing the number and lifted up her shirt. "Stay in, baby!" she yelled, as she then started dialing.
Once Grace got situated in the hospital bed, Jack, Karen, and Carter all waited outside until she delivered. Will and Todd, by request, were in the room helping her through it all. "Make it come out!" Grace screamed, holding Will's hand tightly. "Sweetie, you're crushing my hand," Will complained, wincing at the pain. "I don't care! You son of a bitch, you did this to me!" she exclaimed, as Will looked at the doctor confused. "Some women get like that, but they don't really mean it," the man exclaimed, then told Grace to push harder. "I think I see the head!" Todd exclaimed happily, as Grace glared at him. "Sure this is all fun for you!" she screamed. "A few more pushes," the doctor told her, as she obeyed.
"God, she sound like a dying cow," Jack said, as Carter laughed. "Wait 'till Karen gets pregnant," she replied, as her sister scoffed. "Oh honey, that's not happening," she said, as the ringing of a cell phone was heard. "Who's is that?" Jack asked, as Carter pulled out her phone. "Mine," she answered, flipping it open and putting it up to her ear. "She's always on her phone," Jack whispered to Karen, as she took his hand in hers. "I love you Poodle," she said, as he tilted his head to the side. "Where did that come from?" he asked, as she sighed. "I don't know. I guess I don't say it enough," she answered, giving him a quick kiss. "Oh my God," Carter said, almost speechless. Karen looked up at her sister and gave her a curious look. "What's going on?" she asked, as Carter grabbed her purse. "He woke up," she answered, as she ran out of the waiting room.
"It's coming!" Todd exclaimed, when he saw half of the baby coming out. "One more push," the doctor said, as she groaned. "One more sweetie," Will said, nudging her. Grace let out one huge scream and finally the baby came out. "She's out!" Will squealed, when he heard his daughters cries. "Who's going to do it?" the doctor asked, holding up a pair of scissors. "Me," Todd answered, as he took the scissors. He cut the umbilical cord and smiled down at his daughter. "She's beautiful," he whispered, as the nurse came in. "I'm going to go clean her, but she'll be back in a second," she told them, picking up the baby. "Never in my life again," Grace muttered out, breathless. Will wiped the sweat off her face with a spare towel and kissed her forehead. "You did great," he said, then looked at his beet red hand. "Well, kind of," he said, as Todd walked over to him. "Our daughter is beautiful," he whispered, kissing him. He then looked at Grace and kissed her hand. "And so are you," he said.
When Carter arrived home, she ran upstairs and into Kingston's room. "Where's Carter? Carter?" she heard his voice ask. "I'm right here," she said, walking closer to the bed where he was laying. The maids let go of him and walked out of the room so the two of them could have their own little reunion. "You're still as beautiful as I can remember," he said, as she blushed. "And you still get embarrassed," he said, chuckling a bit. "I can't believe you're awake," she replied, shocked. "One of the maids explained to me that I was in a coma for five years," he said, as she nodded. "Yeah, you were, but no need to think about that. You're awake!" she said excitedly, joining him on the bed. She rested her head on his chest as he gently stroked her hair. "I'm back," he whispered, as she closed her eyes and smiled.
"You were right, Kare. This was a night I wont ever forget," Jack commented, as he leaned back on the pillows, extremely exhausted. "Aww Poodle, did I wear you out?" she asked, trailing a finger down his chin. She crawled on top of him and began leaving kisses on his chest.
