Author's Note: Thank you for all of the reviews! I got some mixed messages on the twins' reactions, though. Some thought it was funny and others thought it went too far. I had a hard time deciding what to do and how to torture them because honestly, I don't like the two ducklings at all. But I did appreciate the reviews….even the bad. You all were polite and pointed out what I did wrong. And I even managed to please a REALLY hard person to please. YAY! And I unfortunately did not see the second part of that House series. Sobs You all may smite me because I had to work. This new chapter is going to be one of the three last ones. There will be two more after this and I warn you… FUNNINESS AHEAD! So I'm giving the RM warning waaaaaaaay ahead of time.


Allison was quietly soaking in the tub, reveling in the quiet. In the House… hold (pun intended), silence was rare and valued like the priceless jewels of Egypt.

CRASH! BOOM!

"You let go!"

"No YOU let go!"

"You both let go or I'll tell mommy!"

Allison sighed and quickly got out, drying off and throwing on a pair of sweat pants with a t-shirt. It was almost bedtime and while being eight months pregnant, sexy wasn't an option right now. House still assured her he found her attractive but she thought it was only for his own safety. She pulled the plug to drain the tub and stepped out into the living room.

"You all settle down right now!"

All three children… Becca was in bed… sat down where they stood. She rarely raised her voice and they knew it was serious when she did.

"Mommy's feet and back hurt right now! I can't even take a bath without having to come out here! You both go to bed RIGHT NO-"

She broke off and House looked at her worried.

"Ally? Are you okay?"

She shook her head and looked down, House's eyes following her eye line.

Her sweat pants were soaked down the front. Her worried eyes shot up to her husband. House nodded and pulled out his cell phone; quickly pressing speed dial.

"Hello?" Wilson's tired voice rang out over the phone.

"I need you to come baby-sit."

"House… I'm not coming over because you and your wife had a fight and need to make up."

"Her water broke."

Silence filled the air as the twins looked over at Allison curiously.

"I'll be right there."

He hung up and motioned to Allison to sit down on the couch.

"You rest for about five minutes and I'll get your bag. Kids… Uncle Jim is going to be with you guys for a little while so I need you to behave."

Emma followed him into the bedroom.

"Why?"

He rolled his eyes at her and grabbed Ally's emergency bag out of the closet.

"Because your new brother or sister is on the way. If you don't behave for your uncle, I'll take away everything from you guys. Help him take care of Becca and I'll take you all out to anywhere you guys want to go when mommy is better."

Emma's eyes lit up as she ran to tell her other half. House rolled his eyes again and hauled the bag to the front door. Just as he reached it, the doorbell rang. He opened it and Wilson rushed in.

"I'm here."

Allison stood up and grabbed him by the tie.

"If you weren't here, I wouldn't be able to kill you for taking so long."

House chuckled and pried her fingers off of his tie. "There's no need to get violent, dear. C'mon now. We're going to go to the hospital." He turned to Wilson. "Twins were instructed to behave. Becca will probably cry but the twins also know how to take care of her. I'll call you when you can bring them down."

Emma tugged on Allison's sweat pants and held her teddy bear up to her.

"The baby can have my teddy if it wants."

Allison's eyes filled with tears as she took the bear from her daughter. It had been Emma's since she had been brought home from the hospital and now she was willing to part with it. Allison carefully bent over and hugged each of her children.

"I'm sure your new brother or sister will love it. Thank you."

She winced as a contraction hit her. Nathaniel's eyes grew round with worry.

"Are you okay, mommy?"

Allison nodded because she was still tight lipped from the pain. House gently tugged her elbow to get her outside.

"Mommy will be fine. Now go to bed and let Uncle Jimmy rest too. We'll call you when it's okay to visit, okay?"

The twins nodded and Wilson waved them off. Allison started to head to the Corvette but House shook his head and motioned towards her mini van.

"I'm not going to have you pee and bleed all over my baby."

"I'm having your baby, you moron!"

House grinned. "I'll pretend that the pain is talking."

As House drove to the hospital, Allison called up Cuddy to let her know what was happening. Cuddy agreed to come immediately and told her that she would warn the hospital.

"Warn?"

Cuddy laughed. "You don't honestly think that I'm going to allow two Houses into the hospital without notice when one is going to have ANOTHER House."

Allison giggled and then groaned as another contraction hit.

"I'm going to let you go now. We're a few minutes away."

"I'll meet you there."

They hung up and House turned to her, smiling.

"The nurses will probably be crying when we get there."

"You mean when YOU get there," Allison shot back.

House just grinned and turned into the parking lot.

"But I want to SEE MOMMY!"

Wilson sighed and ran a hand over his face. They were waiting outside the delivery room waiting for House to give the okay. Emma was standing in front of him; pouting with her arms crossed. Because she was so cute, it was hard to be mad at her. Nathaniel sat slumped in a chair next to him.

"Hey! What did we say about behaving!"

Wilson looked up gratefully as House limped towards them. He stood and House grinned.

"She's fine and so is the baby. The baby was breech though so it was ten times more pain for her. She's awake and feeding the little tyke right now. We can go in there in a few minutes." He looked down at the twins. "How was Uncle Jimmy?"

"Fun," the twins chorused.

House chuckled and sighed as Cuddy strode towards them.

"For the last time! I will not have s-e-x with you!"

He was rewarded with an annoyed expression from her and a curious look from the twins because they didn't know what he had spelled.

"Is it a boy or a girl?"

House smiled evilly. Cuddy narrowed her eyes.

"House," she started in a warning tone.

He just shrugged and began his trip back to Allison and the new baby. The rest took it as their cue to follow and they walked into the room. Allison was sitting up in bed, holding a small yellow bundle. She smiled when they entered the room.

"Would you like to meet the newest addition?"

House helped the twins sit carefully on the bed and Cuddy looked at the little face curiously.

"Sorry to be rude but… boy or girl?"

House hit her leg with his cane and leaned forward to kiss Allison.

"A girl. Lotty Rose House."

Wilson's brow furrowed. "Lotty?"

Allison smiled at him. "Let's just say I'm a fan (pun intended to Lotty of the best review ever!) of the name."

Cuddy shrugged and House chuckled as Lotty let out a loud wail. Emma covered her ears and grimaced.

"Do we have to keep her?"

"EMMA!"


I know the chapter was short but I wanted to get the birth out of the way and a new chapter up before the weekend. Love you all. The next chapter will have to do with the start of the new baby's life and then the last chapter! I was thinking of doing little mini one- shots about when the kids were older but… I'm still deciding. Review and let me know what you think about my idea.
