Chapter Thirteen: You Set Me Free
A week later Karen, Jack, Grace, Will, Lorraine, and the triplets loaded into the limo and drove for the mansion. Karen rested her head on Jack's shoulder. Learning how to breast feed three kids was hard and tiring. The triplets were sleeping, Lorraine had Cloe and Scarlett and Grace had Haven. Everyone was tired, and no-one said a word. Karen had dropped most if not all of her gained weight since the food at the hospital was so bad.
Driver pulled the limo up to the apartment building and opened the back doors. The group of eight climbed out of the car and walked into the building. They filed into the elevator and Karen took Haven and Scarlett while Jack took Cloe. When they got up to the penthouse there was a sign on the door that said "Don't Open Till May". Karen smiled at Grace and Jack opened the door.
"Surprise!!!" Elliot, Rosario, Beverly Leslie, Bobbi Adler, and George Truman were standing in the foyer waiting for them.
"Dad!" Will pushed through and hugged George.
"Oh, Grace come here." Bobbi dragged Grace out of the group and pelted her with a kiss.
"Hi Mom." Grace shot Jack a look.
"I invited everyone over for a little party!" Jack handed Cloe to Lorraine and wrapped his arms around Karen's neck. "Isn't it great?" Jack smiled and Karen couldn't help laughing. Rosario rushed forward and took Scarlett and Haven.
"They're beautiful Ms. Karen!" Rosario laughed and smiled at the two girls. Elliot hugged his dad and Lorraine handed him Cloe.
"Wow...I have sisters!" Elliot let the little girl grab his hand and suck on it. "She's so cute."
"Yeah, now let me see my nieces." George and Bobbi went to Rosario and each took a baby. Beverly strolled to Karen.
"Well, well, well. Karen Walker a mother, I never thought I'd see it. I'm... proud of you Karen. You've done a wonderful job." Beverly smiled at Karen and hugged her.
"Okay, okay!" Grace jumped up and down. "Everyone follow me to the Living Room!" Grace ran through the halls and down a small flight of stairs with the group trailing behind her.
Jack and Karen entered the room hand in hand and both gasped. The living room was decorated with pink streamers and balloons and in the center of it all was a big blanket. Rosario and Elliot lay the girls down on the blanket and sat. The rest of them did the same.
"We got you guys some stuff." Will pulled a big bag of presents out from behind the couch and set them in front of the smiling couple. Karen dumped them all out and picked up the nearest one. She ripped it open and laughed. She held up three small dresses, they were all white with little ribbons. "Those are for your wedding." Will smiled at Jack.
"I hope they fit okay." Grace held one up to Scarlett. Scarlett grabbed at the ribbon and squealed. Everyone laughed as Karen and Jack continued to open the presents. They ended up with lots of clothes and toys, a ton of diapers, and some videos and CD's for the babies to listen to and watch.
About an hour later Karen, Jack, Lorraine, Will and Grace said goodbye to the others and shut the door. Karen locked it and turned to see them all staring at her.
"What?" Karen smiled and looked around at everyone.
"I have something to show you Kare." Grace took her hand and led Karen upstairs and to the third room on the right, right across from Karen and Jack's room. There were pink ribbons on the door and a sign that said "Welcome Home Girls". Karen smiled at Grace and opened the door. She stood in the hall awestruck at what she saw.
"Oh Grace...I can't believe it. It's beautiful." Karen began to cry and Jack held her.
"Thanks, Will helped." Grace smiled and joined Karen and Jack in a group hug. Lorraine and Will joined in soon after. The room was painted a pale purple with light pink trim. There was a huge window on the far wall and the curtains were purple with kittens on them. Three cribs lined the wall to the right, each one was painted white with a different colored bed-set. Each crib had a sign on it, the one with blue bedding had "Cloe" on it, the purple was for Haven and the pink was for Scarlett. A rocking chair sat in the corner along with a small bookshelf that had a few books and a teddy bear on it. On the wall to the left were some rockers and a changing table.
There was a mini fridge under the changing table for bottles and food. A toy box took up the last spot in the room and in the center was a big play rug with a horse on it. The lights on the walls were small hearts and glowed pink and blue.
"Thank you so much Grace." Karen hugged her and walked to the cribs, Jack followed. "I love it."
"I'm glad to hear it. Hey we better get going Will, it's nine." Grace grabbed Will's arm and dragged him out of the room.
"Oh, you're leaving?" Jack asked.
"Yeah, it's late and well, we have to go." Grace walked down the stairs followed by Will.
"Okay honey well, come back soon." Karen hugged Will and Grace one last time. "Thanks again you guys!" They walked off and Karen almost shut the door for the night when she heard someone call her name. It was Elliot.
"Karen! Jack! Wait, I need to talk to you!" Elliot stopped in the doorway and handed Karen a note. "My mom gave that to me."
Karen and Jack read over the note and looked at each-other. "Why does she want you to live with us?" Jack asked confused.
"I don't know. I wish I knew but I don't." Elliot looked at the ground. "You don't have to take me I-"
"We'd be happy to Elliot." Karen smiled and nodded at him.
"Really! Well my mom said if you said that then she'd be by at like one tomorrow afternoon to drop me off with my stuff. I'll see you then." Elliot hugged Karen and took off down the hall.
"So we have four kids now huh?" Jack shut the door and looked at Karen.
"Yeah I guess." Karen smiled at him.
"I'm gonna go to bed now you guys." Lorraine waved and headed to her room.
"Goodnight Lorraine. Thanks again." Karen waved back and watched her go up the stairs.
"You know what this means don't you?" Jack asked with a sly look on his face.
"No, I'm afraid I don't." Karen giggled at him. Jack pushed her against the wall and kissed her deeply.
"I love you Karen."
