Chapter 12- Results and Preparations
Woody's POV
"Just breath, in and out, in and out. Okay, you are experiencing false contractions, braxton hicks, they are nothing to worry about, the only way they are going to get hurt is if you don't calm down." She stopped, never in my life had I witnessed Jordan Cavanaugh calm down so quickly. I was amazed. I wasn't evne sure if she knew what those words meant when placed together.
"So they're okay, right?"
"As long as she remains calm, but Jordan I do think you need to stop exerting yourself so much, this happened just from a shopping trip, you need to lay off work for a while possibly until the babies come."
"Your nuts, I can't give up work, it is the only things that keeps me sane!" Don't let her talk you out of it, don't let her talk you out of it.
"Jordan I'm putting my foot down, any work you do will be from your bed and no, I repeat no murder, suicide, or any other fishy cases, stick to cold ones for a while."
"But, but...."
"Jordan you heard him, you have to take it easy. I'm gonna take care of you guys."
"Woody you know I can't sit here doing nothing for three more months. I'll go nuts, I'll drive you nuts, you won't want to be anywhere near me."
"Crazy woman," I laughed out, "I'll be there if for no other reason than you are holding my children for ransom. Besides your not very likely to make it much more than two months anyway, right doc?" He nodded. She scowled at me, I expected as much, if not worse, she couldn't hold it for long though. A faint smile started to trickle across her lips.
"You are so going to pay for this Woody," she said a tone that made me more than a little uncomfortable. You love her, remember.
"I wasn't the only one in the bed Jordan." I said before realizing the doctor was still in the room. I could feel my face turn bright red, Jordan just started cracking up as the doctor slowly made his way towards the door with a sympathetic look on his face. I saw him leave and I heard something fall in the hall. I decided to forget about it and turned my attention towards Jordan. "Well, you look much better, what do say we get going." I wrapped my arm around her waist to help her up.
"That sound great, but I don't think you are going to get anymore presents from me until these two get out of here, if you get what I mean." my face dropped, she gave me a small smile, and kissed my cheek.
"Not funny."
"I'm not joking." This was going to be a trying two or three months. It will be okay, if she has to carry two babies, I can control myself. They are all that matter right now. "Now lets get going, I don't want to be here longer than I have to." We left and went back to our apartment.
Jordan's POV
"Wood, what is all that noise?"
"They started construction to combine the apartments today remember." Dang it all. I just want to relax and get some sleep. It's been a hard enough days as it is and now all this noise. How long does it take to combine an apartment, I mean it's not like they have to go build a whole new section, all they have to do is take down a wall right? I hope so. If I have to stay down there is no way I'm doing it with all this noise. When we got home we decided it was time to call Garret and let him know I was off the clock until these kids were ready to come out.
RING RING. "Macy."
"Hi Garret, Woody and I were wondering if you want to come over for dinner tonight, we..uh... need to talk."
"Jordan, is everything okay?"
"Not exactly, but we'll explain when you come over."
"I sort of have a date, do mind if I bring her?"
"No, it'll be fun, besides Woody is cooking so can invite the morgue if you want. He won't"
"YES HE WILL," I heard him yell from the kitchen. I laughed.
"Okay not the whole morgue, just the alive ones."
"JORDAN," he said warning me.
"OKAY, OKAY, Just you and your date, we can have everyone else later, THAT OKAY."
"FINE."
"Sorry, anyways can you be here in about an hour?"
"Sure, not problem, just got to call Renee,"
"Alright, see you soon, bye." I thought about his last words for a minute, "Woody is something going on between Garret and D.A. Walcott?"
"Yes, it's been going on for months."
"Where have I been?" I said utterly confused.
"Preoccupied." he dead panned.
"Well dinner better be good 'cause guess who's coming?"
"Do I really want to?"
"Probably not, but it is Renee." I had managed to avoid the D.A.'s office ever since I was showing, and I made Woody swear not to let anyone tell her, I got enough ridicule from her as it was. I didn't want to deal with her parenting comments as well. "Woody, I didn't want her to know, at least not yet I don't think I can deal with the ridicule, especially now that I have to sit on my but until this is over with."
"It'll be fine, and if it's not, she's gone. We're not taking any risks remember. Besides, Garret wouldn't do it to you if he thought there would be a problem, and she was bound to find sooner or later. Now go get ready." Did he really just tell me what to do.
"Your going to pay for that mister."
"I hope so, but unfortunately not anytime soon."
