Chapter 5: Last Chapter!
Nikolas held the gun up at his grandmother but still haven't shot it yet. "See Nikolas. Just admit it you dont have it in you to do it." Helena said as Courtney let out another scream from her contraction. This reminded Nikolas of all the shit that Helena had put them through. "Nikolas if you aren't going to do it I am but either way we have to hurry and get Courtney to the hospital. She's about to deliver any moment now." Jason said wishing he would hurry up.
"Hold on." Nikolas said. "She's in labor?" Helena asked surprised. "Yeah and you put her there and I swear to god if anything is wrong with the baby Im coming to kill you again." Jason said. "Jason how can you kill somebody twice?" Sonny asked looking at his best friend confused. "Trust me. I'll find away." Jason said back to him. "Hurry up please!" Courtney screeched as she had another contraction.
"How many was that?" Sonny asked Jason. "Six which means that three more and the baby is coming. I think thats right." Jason said as Sonny shrugged his shoulders at him. "Its nine or ten." Courtney said irritated at the fact that they were trying to figure out how much she had to be dilated before she was able to give birth instead of killing Helena which she noted to kill Nikolas for taking so long later.
"Helena unhook my wife!" Nikolas said as he realized Courtney was still chained up. "Im not doing it. Heres the key." She said holding it out. "Oh damn. I'll do it. We aint got forever until that baby is born." Jason said grabbing the key and unhooking Courtney then helping her up. "Come on." He said as he helped Courtney up and then walked over to where Nikolas and Sonny were standing. "You okay?" Nikolas asked Courtney as he didn't take his eyes off Helena. "No. Cant you just kill the bitch already?" Courtney asked him.
"Well I didn't want to shoot her with you behind her. Thats not very safe. Im not trying to pull a Sonny and shoot you in the head instead." He said still not taking his eyes and the gun off Helena. "Ha ha ha. Thats so funny." Sonny said sarcastically. "I thought it was." Jason said letting out a little laugh. "Can somebody get me to the hospital please?" Courtney asked as she began to squeeze Jasons arm again from another contraction. "Hold on baby." Nikolas said.
"Do you have any last words?" He asked Helena. "Nikolas everything I have ever done was out of love for you." She said. "Oh bull shit." Courtney said. "Wanna help me do the honors Mrs. Cassadine?" Nikolas asked Courtney. "If we make it quick cause I think your son wants to be born." She said getting closer to him. "Why must you two make everything cheesy? Killing somebody isnt suppose to be romantic. Its suppose to be mean and cold blooded." Jason said looking at the two of them as Nikolas gave Courtney a quick kiss.
"Ugh! See?" Jason said looking at Sonny. "You dont see me kissing Sonny right before I kill somebody!" Jason said looking at Nikolas. "God I hope not! You two arent married! Even though if you ask me you should be!" Courtney said before Nikolas could answer. "Ha ha ha. Courtney you are so funny! Guess what? You can kiss my ass!" Jason said looking at her. "No thanks. I've done that for too long in the past." She said back to him with a smile on her face as Jason just looked at her.
Nikolas let Courtney in front of him and placed her hand on top of his on the gun. "Ready?" He asked her as she shook her head yes. "1" he said. "2" he said softer. "3" and with that last number the gun was fired as the old hag fell to the ground. "Wow that was good aim." Jason said. "Yeah it was." Sonny replied to the statement Jason said. "Alright lets get you to the hospital." Nikolas said as they passed the gun to Sonny and began to walk out.
Her water just broke as a puddle fell to the floor as she screamed again. "We've got to hurry."He said. "I dont think Im going to make it!" Courtney said. "Okay. Im going to call Emily and we are going to stick through this together." Jason said as the other two men nodded their heads in agreement. Not one of them knew exactly what they were doing though.
"Emily?" Jason said. "Hey! Has Sonny and Nikolas found you yet?" She asked. "Yeah but hey listen. I need you to tell me how to deliver a baby." Jason said. "Why not take her to the hospital where professionals can do it?" Emily asked. "We dont have time! Now what do I do?" Jason asked her. "Okay is she laying down?" Emily asked. "Lay down Courtney!" Jason screamed. "Whats next?"he asked as Emily finished telling him what to do.
Twenty minutes past and Jason looked at Courtney. "One more push!" He said."I see the head which Emily says means we are almost done!" Jason said as Sonny and Nikolas each held her hand. "Ready?" Nikolas asked her. She nodded her head yes. "Okay. Go!" Jason said as she let out another big push. "Congratulations you have a boy. Here cut the cord!" Jason said as Sonny handed Nikolas a knife and Jason held the baby. "I cleaned it. I have a flask see!" Sonny said showing them his flask that was almost filled. Jason then passed the baby to Nikolas so he could hold him.
Right after Jason passed the baby to Nikolas,Monica and Emily walked in. "Hey you guys got here just in time." Sonny said looking at them. "Okay. Mom has the things to take care of the baby until we get him to the hospital but we have to leave now." Emily said looking at them. "Courtney how are you doing?" Monica asked her. "Im okay." She said. "Okay lets go." Monica said as all three guys got up and Nikolas lifted Courtney to the car.
They arrived at the hospital twenty minutes later. Stefan Mikhail Cassadine was born that day. Weighing in at five pounds and two ounces. The doctors said not bad for her only beginning seven months pregnant but the baby wouldnt be able to go home for a week or two until they got him the proper weight and health and until then he would be in NICU for atleast a few days. They also had to arrange test to see if there was any kind of mental damage done. The doctor said that the reason for her premature labor was the chemicals in the cloth that knocked her out as well as added stress.
Jason and Sonny stayed behind to dispose of the body and the weapon that way there was no evidence so they couldn't be found guilty. When they were done it was about ten o'clock at night. They arrived at the hospital to see how Courtney and the baby was doing. "Hey is Courtney awake?" Jason asked as he saw Emily standing at the nurse station. "Mm. Its past visiting hours but since you delivered the baby I guess you deserve to see him now uh?" Emily said. "Yes I would think so." Jason answered.
"Follow me." Emily answered. "By the way Jase. How did you get stuck delivering the baby?" Emily asked him and Sonny. "Well Sonny wasnt going to do it if he didn't have too because that was his little sister and she wanted Nikolas to hold her hand so that left me." Jason asked. "Well it's a good thing you did because without you Courtney and Lil' Stefan wouldnt be doing to good." Emily replied as Jason just nodded his head. She knocked on the door and waited for an answer. "Come in." They heard a guys voice say.
"Hey." Jason and Sonny said as they walked into the room. "Hey." Courtney answered. "Wanna go see him?" She asked him. "Yeah." He responded as Courtney, Nikolas, Sonny, Emily and Jason all walked out of the room and down the hallway. "Here you guys go." Emily said as they stopped outside the room that Stefan was in. "Come on Jason. I'll take you in so you can hold him." Courtney said walking into the room with Jason following her.
"Is that the little guy?" Jason asked looking over at Courtney. "Yup." She said looking at him. "The exact opposite of Natalie." She finished. "Huh?" Jason asked confused. "Well Natalie has blonde hair and brown eyes. He has brown hair and blue eyes." Courtney said helping him out. "Awww. Your right he does." Jason said as the baby opened his eyes. "Here." Courtney said as the two of them were now in yellow gowns. She placed the baby in his arms.
"He's so tiny. Daniel was like eight pounds and something. Chunky thing and he still is." Jason said looking over at her. "Yeah. Thanks Jason." Courtney said looking at him. "It was my pleasure because I know that if I was Nikolas I would want Sonny to give birth to Sam's baby too." Jason said with a smile as he had to think about who Sam dated before him. "Be happy." Jason told her. "I am." She replied back as Jason handed her back the baby so she could put him back.
"This is yours." He said handing her the neckless. "Thanks." She replied as she took it and walked out of the room with him following her. "Okay we are going to go so you's can get some rest and we'll come see you tomorrow." Sonny said. "Want me to tell Natalie for you?" Sonny asked. Nikolas looked at Courtney and then back at Sonny. "No. Just bring her here tomorrow and it can be a surprise." Nikolas said as Courtney nodded her head. "Okay." Sonny said right before him and Jason walked to the elevators as Courtney and Nikolas walked back to her room.
"How do you think she's going to take it?" Courtney asked worried while looking up at Nikolas. "I dont know but she'll have to get over it. Its not like you could keep him inside of you forever besides I think its better this way, that he's born now that way we dont have to put up with two more months of her mis-behaving." Nikolas said as he now sat on the edge of the bed. "Yeah I guess your right." Courtney said looking at him.
"Do you wanna know how me and Sonny knew it was Helena who took you and Jason?" Nikolas asked her. "Sure." Courtney said looking at him. "Well I went and talked to our daughter and finally got her to admit she was jealous but then she told me it was all going to be okay because granny said she was going to take care of him so she was an only child still." Nikolas said as he held her hand.
"She called her granny?" Courtney asked. "Yeah I thought that was pretty funny too. Anyway I asked her to describe this granny and she describe Helena pretty good so I grabbed her and ran down stairs and then Sam told us that you went and talked to Jason in the garden so me, Sonny and Natalie went and you's weren't there and Sonny called Jason and he answered and thats when I talked to you." He said looking at her.
She didn't exactly know how to respond to that. "Courtney I dont know what I would have done if I would have lost you or our son." Nikolas said as he let a tear go from his right eye which made Courtney let one go. "I love you so much and I couldn't imagine my life without you." He finished. "I love you too." She said back. "We have nothing left to worry about. Helena is dead. She's never going to bother us again." Nikolas said back to her as she nodded her head.
"Hey Emily. Is Courtney awake?" Sonny asked as he held Natalie in his arm. He made Carly stay at home because he knew she would have blew the secret before Nikolas and Courtney got to tell Natalie besides he was just dropping and running. He wasnt going to stay very long but was going to come back later with Carly. "Um yeah. Does" She didn't finish as Sonny began to shake his head no. "Oh. Okay. Lets go. Follow me." She said as she left the nurses station.
"He's doing better." Emily said breaking the silence. "Really?" Sonny asked her as Natalie was paying no attention what so ever. "Yeah. A lot better actually." Emily finished as she looked at Sonny. "He'll be able to get out of the NCUI for a few hours at a time which is really good progress." She said. "Yeah that really is." Sonny finished. Things weren't as weird as they use to be besides Emily was really happy with Max now. Something nobody saw lasting.
They knocked on the door and Nikolas yelled to come in. "Ready?" Sonny asked Natalie. "Yeah!" She said still not having a clue as to what was going on. "Here we are." Sonny said walking in. "Mommy whats wrong?" She asked as she spotted Courtney in the hospital bed. "Nothing baby. Mommy and daddy have a surprise for you though." Courtney said as Sonny handed Natalie to Courtney. "What is it?" She asked. "You have to wait a minute until it gets here." Courtney said.
"Here." Nikolas said as the nurse walked in with the baby. They were running more test on him but everything had come back negative. "Awww. Who's that?" Natalie asked clueless. "Its your baby brother." Nikolas answered. "But I thought he wasnt going to be born for a couple of months?" Natalie asked confused. "He wasnt suppose to be thats why he is premature." Courtney answered her. "Premature?" Natalie asked back. "Yes ma." Courtney answered her.
"Okay Im going to go. Carly will be up here at twelve or Im hoping she'll leave you alone til' then." Sonny said before walking out. "Okay." Courtney answered. "When can we take him home?" Natalie asked. "What happened to giving him to granny?" Courtney asked her. Natalie's smile turned to a frown. "I dont want to give him to granny no more. I wanna take him home." Natalie said looking at baby brother and giving him a kiss on the forehead and then her mother. "Okay." Courtney replied as she kissed the little girl on the forehead.
