Chapter Thirty Eight
The nurse brought the little girl back in and laid her in Grace's arms. "Wow. She really is beautiful," Grace said, admiring the baby's face. "Can I hold her?" Will asked anxiously. "No," Grace answered, toying with the little girl's hand. "But..." Will began, but soon was cut off my Grace speaking. "I had her, deal with it," she said, as she started playing peekaboo.
"I'm bored honey. Let's get out of here," Karen said impatiently. "You don't want to see the baby?" Jack asked, tilting his head to the side. She gave him a look and he immediately recognized the lust in her eyes. "Your right. Seeing the baby can always wait," he said, as they both rushed out of the hospital.

Carter smiled wide when she opened the door to her house and saw Jack and Karen standing there. "Hey," she greeted, hugging both of them. "How are you?" Jack asked, as they all made their way into the living room. "Fabulous," Carter answered, her face glowing. "Do we finally get to meet Kingston?" he asked anxiously. "Yeah, let me go get him," she said, hurrying out of the room. Karen turned to Jack and smiled. "She looks so happy, doesn't she?" she asked, as he nodded. "She sure does. I can't wait to meet him," he replied, doing a little dance. "I'm back!" Carter announced. She walked into the room pushing a shiny black wheelchair with a man her same age sitting in it. "Guys, this is Kingston," she told them, as he smiled. "Carter has told me so much about you both," he said, extending his hand out. "It's nice to meet you," Jack replied, shaking his hand. "I'm sorry I can't get up to greet you. As you might know, I am in the process of learning how to walk again," Kingston said apologetically. "Oh, it's fine. Don't worry about it," Jack replied. "Yeah, the doctors said it's a miracle that he can even remember people," Carter said, walking over to Karen. "This is my sister, Karen," she informed her husband, as he smiled. "You two look very much alike," he said, in awe at the resemblance. "I'm a lot prettier though," Karen said, picking at some lint on her suit jacket. Carter snorted as she wrapped an arm around her sister. "You wish," she whispered. Kingston shook his head at the both of them and looked at Jack. "So are you and Karen a couple?" he asked, raising a brow. "Yes, Jack is Karen's boyfriend," Carter answered, before Jack could even reply. "He's my husband," Karen corrected, as Carter slapped her head. "God, I keep forgetting," she said. "Karen and I got married about two months ago," Jack explained. "Oh, congratulations," Kingston said, as a maid walked in. "Dinner is ready to be served," she informed them.
The next morning, Jack and Elliot were in the kitchen making breakfast when Elliot noticed that Jack didn't have a wedding band. "I thought you guys were married," he said, confused. "We are," Jack replied, as he continued stirring the mix in a bowl. "But where is your ring. In movies, the guy always has a ring," Elliot commented, as Jack smiled. "Well when we have our big wedding, I'll get one," he explained. "When is that going to be?" Elliot asked curiously. "We don't know yet. Hopefully next month," Jack answered, as Karen walked in. "Yeah, it will be next month," she said, sipping the last drops of her martini. "Did you call the church?" Jack asked, as she nodded. "Yep and I already have the date set," she answered, as he ran to her and twirled her around. "Alright honey, put me down. I need a drink," she said. He put her down and she immediately made herself another martini. "Want a sip?" she asked Elliot. "Yeah!" he exclaimed, as she handed him the glass. "Karen," Jack said sternly, as she rolled her eyes. "Sorry kid. Dad says no," she said, taking the glass away from him. "Well I'm going to go upstairs," she told them, as she walked toward Jack. She pressed her mouth against his ear and whispered, "I hope to see you up there." She then walked out, leaving Elliot rolling his eyes. "You two are so weird," he said, shaking his head.
Meanwhile, Grace was at Will and Todd's house, laying in bed, watching the two men play with their daughter that they had named, Samantha. "Who's a pretty girl? Who's a pretty girl?" Will asked, as he tickled the baby. She giggled lightly as Todd laid kisses on her cheeks. "Will, get me some soda," Grace said. "Get it yourself," he replied, as her mouth dropped open. "Oh so now that I'm not pregnant you treat me rudely?" she asked, as Will smiled. He thought about it for a second and then nodded. "Yep," he said, then looked back at Samantha. "Who's a pretty girl?" he began to ask again. Grace rolled her eyes and got off the bed. "Thanks a lot," she muttered, walking out of the room to get some soda.
