Twister didn't know what to think. It seemed like Reggie really had been in pain but then she had Ally tag him. Otto had been angry with him, telling him that they knew he would be worried about her and they were using it to try to win. He just didn't think Reggie would do that. But she did. They were both tagged when he went to check on her.
They retreated back to the pier; Otto was pretty sure they were going to try to get their flag at any second. Sure enough, he soon saw Lars, running towards the pier and looking all around. He hadn't spotted Twister yet so he snuck up and tagged him. Lars stopped but he didn't freeze.
"Dude. It's Reggie. She needs you."
"What?" Twister asked, feeling worried again. But Otto has apparently come up behind him and heard Lars.
"He's lying, Twist. He's just trying to get us away so he can get our flag."
"Would you forget about the stupid flag?" Lars snapped. "Your wife's in labor. Now get your ass over there."
"Labor?!" Twister started panicking. "I knew something like this would happen! Why does no one ever believe me?"
"Because you're never right." Twister tried to go but Otto grabbed his arm. "Stop! You're playing right into their hand! You're gonna lose us the game!"
"I don't care!" Twister escaped from Otto's hold and ran with Lars towards the Shack.
No one was at the counter when they got to the Shack so they ran to the back, where they found Tito, Raymundo, and Ally taking Reggie to the car.
"Reggie!" Twister called, rushing over to her.
"Please no I-told-you-sos," she managed a smile and an eye roll.
O.O.O.O.O.O.O.O
"I can't believe I almost missed this," Twister said softly, laying next to Reggie in the hospital bed and holding his son.
Reggie laughed. "You were hours away from missing this."
The baby's dark brown eyes stared up at him, looking confused.
"Hey little guy. I'm your daddy." Twister smiled at their child before turning to Reggie. "He's so squishy."
There was a double-knock at the door before the door creaked open and Otto appeared.
"Hey, Otto," Reggie smiled.
"Hey," he walked over to get a better look at the baby. "You guys pick a name yet?"
"We named him Miguel, after Twister's grandfather," Reggie answered, looking down at him again.
"Hey Miguel," Otto's voice went a little higher as he spoke to the baby. He looked back up at Twister and Reggie and used his normal voice again. "I'm really sorry I almost made Twister miss this."
Reggie rolled her eyes, telling Otto the same thing she told Twister. "He wasn't even close to missing it."
"Still. I should've believed Lars. I guess I got a little carried away with the game."
"We both did," Reggie admitted.
"I got something for him." He pulled their team's red flag out of his pocket. On it, '1st place' was written in sharpie. "I think he pretty much won the game."
"Baby's first victory," Reggie smiled, taking the flag from him and draping it over Miguel. "I like it."
