"You said John was there when you had her." Chin

"Yes, thank God because he was calmer than Steve."

"Now that's the story I want to hear." Danny

/

"I was not as bad as she thinks I was." Steve defending himself.

"He passed out didn't he?" Danny again

"No, he didn't and you did calm down after your dad talked to you."

"I was worried but I stayed calm."

"If you say so." Catherine laughing at him.

"Why were you worried?" Chin asked.

"Cath was in a lot of pain. I didn't realize that she would be in that much pain when she said she want to go natural."

"Because apparently child birth doesn't require any pain." Catherine statement made everyone laugh.

"You went natural. Have you lost your mind?" Kono asked.

"No, I read that it was better for the baby."

"Tell us the story. I want to know how bad SuperSeal was." Danny

Catherine didn't even realize she was in labor, until she went to the doctor, this was supposed to be a normal appointment, and Steve was at Pearl doing a training. The doctor had insisted that she not drive to the hospital, so she called John to pick her. She was waiting outside for him, despite Steve's reservations she was fond of John, and she smiled when he pulled up.

"Catherine, how did you not know you were in labor?" He asked as she got in the car.

"Back labor and because I've had back pain this whole pregnancy I didn't think anything of it."

"Have you gotten a hold of Steve?"

"No, I'm not sure how to get a hold of him."

"What do you mean?"

"We explained that no-one knows he's the father, I'm not due for another two weeks. We didn't think she would be earlier, so he's in his last day of training until after my due date. I have no idea who to call that will understand the importance without giving it away. I won't ruin his career."

"He can't miss this, he would never forgive himself. Try calling Joe, he was supposed to be on the island yesterday, he will get Steve to the hospital."

"Okay, it's not like everyone is not going to suspect any way." As she pulled out her phone.

"Why?"

"We are going to Tripler. The only plus part is not a lot of people know us there."

"It'll be okay."

She smiled at John as Joe answered his phone.

"Joe its Catherine. John told me you were on the island."

She listened to Joe, as John stopped at a light.

"I'm in labor and I don't know how to get a hold of Steve, he's in training."

There was another pause.

"Yeah, I'm supposed to have 2 weeks left."

"Thank you, Joe." Before she hang up.

"He's going to get Steve?" John asked.

"Yes and he said he would make sure that Steve made it to the hospital in one piece."

"Catherine, I have to say you are awful calm for a women how is going to give birth."

"I'm ready to meet her."

One hour later.

Steve rushed into the hospital, he was nervous but had spoken with Catherine and John, and they reassured him that there was plenty of time. He made his way to Catherine's floor, surprise to see John standing in the hallway.

"Dad, what's going on?" as he approached him.

"The doctor is in with her, examining her so I told her I would be out here."

"Oh but everything is okay."

"She is starting to feel more pain but yes she and Sawyer are fine."

"Did she tell you that she doesn't want any drugs?"

"Yes and she may change her mind."

"I tried to tell her that it would be okay. Sawyer would be fine but she is insisting that she can do it natural."

"Son, she is a brilliant and strong women. You are very lucky to have her but I know that you don't want to see her in pain but it's a decision she made."

"I know. Are you going to stay around?"

"I was hoping to but I didn't know how you would feel about it."

"I'm okay with and I know Cath will be. Dad, thanks for picking her up and staying."

"Steve, I know we have had our differences but I wouldn't be anywhere else.

2 hours later.

Catherine and Steve were in the room, her labor had started to progress and the pain was getting worse. Steve was trying to convince her to get pain meds but she was still refusing. Steve was driving her nuts trying to fix this. He had already told the nurses and doctor to help ease the pain, he was ready to ask for a new staff. There was nothing he could say that was going to change her mind, she wished he would shut up.

"Stop talking. I don't want the drugs if you can't be supportive get out." Catherine yelled.

"Cath, I don't want you in pain. Please let me do something."

"Get out."

"Please."

"Now, you are not helping."

Steve walked of the room, he felt helpless and it was a feeling he didn't like. John seen him come out of the room from the waiting area.

"Steve what's going on?"

"She kicked me out of the room."

"What? Why?"

"I just want to help her but she is being stubborn."

"Explain more."

"She's in pain, I've never seen someone in so much pain but she won't take any drugs. I have begged her to take something but she won't."

John felt for his son, he was so in love with Catherine, he just wanted to take the pain away.

"The best thing you can do is go back in there and tell her how much you love her and the baby. Tell her everything is going to be okay. Rub her back, kiss her, do whatever you can to make her feel comfortable. You have to push all your fears aside and you can't fix this."

"Do you really think that it will work?"

"Yes, she needs you to remain calm. Apologize as soon as you walk in the room, you don't want to miss the birth of your daughter."

Steve nodded, taking a deep breathe before opening the door.

"Thanks." Before he turned to go back in the room.

"Do not come back in here if you are going to talk about meds." John heard Catherine tell Steve.

He shook his head before walking back to the waiting area.

/

"I'm sorry. I just didn't expect you to be in this much pain."

"What did you think it was going to be like? Our daughter is trying to make her way out of my body and it hurts."

"Cath, I love you and I love Sawyer. I am sorry if I put you under any more stress. I'm not sure what I thought this would be like." As he sat on the bed next to her.

"I love you but I need you to be calm."

"I know and I will do my best." As he started rubbing circles on her back.

She nodded as another contraction hit her, she tried to breathe through it without letting on how painful it was but it was not working. She could hear Steve whispering that he loved her.

4 hours later

Steve held his daughter, he couldn't believe how much love he felt for Catherine and Sawyer, Sawyer was only ten minutes old.

"Steve, you should go get your dad."

"I guess." As he looked over at her.

Catherine laughed.

"We are not going anywhere. She is going to need to feed before to much longer."

"Okay, I'm sure he is eager to find out what is going on."

"He is going to want to meet her."

/

"See I wasn't that bad."

"You really asked for a new staff?" Kono laughing.

"Yes, she was in a lot of pain."

"He was great after he talked to John and I understood later why he did what he did."

"It was love at first sight with Sawyer." Danny smiling.

"Absolutely, but seeing Cath with her was amazing."

"The no drugs part gets me." Chin as he shook his head.

"Sista, you are superwomen."

"We can't wait to meet Sawyer. I'm taking bets that she is more like Cath then Steve."

"We are wanting to have everyone over on Saturday."

"Sawyer and my parents will be here. I know that it will be hard to explain to Gracie but we really want everyone here. Danny, I know Steve knows more about what is exactly going on with Charlie but please know that he is included."

"Thank you and I will talk to Rachel. I will talk with Grace, I am sure she is going to be excited to meet her new cousin."

The group sat their talking for another hour, discussing which room was being turned into Sawyer's room. Danny and Chin told Steve they would help paint while Kono told Catherine they could shop for the little girl.

Please let me know what you think.
