A/N: I know, this chapter was pretty predictable, but it had to be done. LOL. One more chapter to go! Enjoy, and please review!
Rodney paced the waiting room anxiously. He hated waiting. He was no good at it and all it did was raise his blood pressure. Finally, after forever, Carson came to the door and smiled, ushering him in.
Rodney hurried into the room, his eyes immediately seeking those of his wife. He finally found her, and as their eyes met, Elizabeth smiled hugely, then nodded.
He felt the tension quickly leave his body, only to be replaced by an almost morbid curiosity. He was making his way towards her to get answers as John Sheppard, one of his oldest friends, hurried up behind him and stopped next to him. Rodney looked at him, then they both approached Elizabeth and the nurses surrounding the infirmary bed.
As they got closer, the group parted, giving him his first view of the bed and its occupants. He felt his eyes tear up in relief and love at the site of the beautiful young woman.
She looked up and grinned that inherited McKay smile. "Dad, John. I want you to meet Michael Rodney Sheppard. Your grandson."
