Don's Pov
I am sitting at my desk and I looked at the photo that is on my desk of my family. I can't believe that we have three kids and expecting another child. I am just trying to waiting for it to be time to go home.I don't hear when David comes up to me.
"Hey what's going on?" I asked my friend.
"How's the pregnancy going?" David asked me.
"It's going good. She's halfway thou the pregnancy right now and the kids love to put their hands on her belly." I revealed to him. We had our first son and named him Ben. He wanted to named him after his brother but he got out voted by the girls.
"What do you want the baby to be?" David asked me.
"I am hoping that it's a boy. Ben and I are out numbered by the girls" I told him. David's look change and I figure that either Kari or my dad is behind me. I turn around to find my wife standing there. I smile and stand up to give her a kiss. By the look that I am getting, I can tell that she is upset. I take her into the other room and close the door.
"What's going on?" I asked her.
"I need to go see my parents. My dad is sick right now and I need to be there." Kari said to me. "I want to take the kids with me."
"I want to go with you and the kids. when do we go there?" I asked her while giving her a hug. I didn't want my family to go without me. I have next week off anyway.
"Tomorrow." she told me. "I will see you at home. I love you."
"I love you too." I respond to her giving her a hug. "I will see you at home."
I watched as she walked out of the room and leaves the work. She doesn't work there anymore since the kids need her at home. I am fine with her staying at home with the kids.

I am sitting at home waiting for him to get home. I can tell that the kids know something is up since they keep asking questions. Chloe had just celebrated her ninth birthday and Cassie had celebrated her fourth birthday. I watch them as they are playing with their brother. Chloe gets up and walks to me.
"mom, is there going on with our trip?" Chloe asked me. I should have known that she would figure it out. "Is there something going on with grandpa or grandma?"
I sat there thinking should I lie to her or tell her the truth. I decide that I am just going to tell her the truth. "My dad is sick and they don't think that he is going to make it." I told her. About five minutes later, Don finally gets home and we eat dinner. By the time that it's bedtime, the kids are ready to go to bed.
The next morning comes fast since we have to get up early and head to the airport. My doctor cleared me to travel on the plane since we haven't had no issues with this baby. Don helps me get into the car and also the kids.
Chloe Pov
I am finding it hard to believe that my grandpa might not live. I know that my mom is sad since she wants all of us to know my we get to the hotel, my dad pulls me aside to make sure that I am okay. I have been really quiet since finding this out.
"Are you okay?" My dad asked me.
"Yeah I am fine." I replied to him.
He pulls me into a hug and let's me breakdown in his arms. I know that he knew that I was lying to him about being fine. He remembers that I was this way when my birth mom died. Tomorrow we are going to their house since dad wants to make sure mom rests a little bit before we go.
The next morning, we wake up and head over to grandpa's house. I looked at mom to see her and see her nervous about seeing her dad like this. I watched as my dad takes her hand to give her comforts of knowing that he is there.
Don 's Pov
We decided to tell the kids that their grandfather is sick and leave it at that. We don't want to scare the kids. I knew that Chloe knows what is going on with her grandpa. We decided to have Chloe take the kids for a walk. When they got back, Chloe walks into the room and smiled at her grandfather in his bed. I watched my daughter with her adoptive grandfather.
"Hey grandpa. How are you feeling?" She asked him. She waits for him to answer and the only response that she got was in a notepad. I was surprise how okay she was with it. I am very proud of my daughter. We stay there until 7pm when we need to head back and put the kids to bed.
No One's POV
At the end of the week, Kari's father died and they start planning the funeral. Kari had gone thou a lot with her father's passing. The family celebrate his life and now they are heading home. The kids are missing their grandfather and Kari is trying keep strong for her children. She need to remember the baby's life that is inside of her.
Kari's POV
It's been three weeks since my father passing. The kids are doing better and now they are getting back to their normal life. Today we had a doctor's appointment. Don is picking me up from dropping the kids off at his father's house. We find out that we are having a baby girl again. I know my husband is upset over not having another boy.
"Are you okay with this baby being a girl?" I asked him.
"I am fine with it." he told me giving me a small kiss before helping me back into his truck. We get almost to the house when someone hits us and takes us hostage. We wake up to find us locked into a room.
"Are you okay?" He asked me as he puts his hand on my stomach.
"Yeah. We're fine." I promied him. "But where are we?"
"I don't know." He said as he looks for his phone to call for help.
Don' s POV
It's been about three weeks since we were taken and I have tried everything to get us out of here. I figured that the people that took us know that I am FBI agent and that's why they took us. I had managed to get out of the cliffs and get her out to since I know that it's not good for the baby. I know that I need to be strong for her but truth of the matter is that I am scared for us and our children.
"We are going to be okay." I revealed to my wife. She needs me the most right now.I need to protect her. I feel that I make sure that she can go home to be with our kids. "I am going to make sure that you get out."
"I am not going without you." Kari responded to her husband as the men come into the room and give them some food. I want to the man about getting her out of here.
"Can I talk about getting my wife out of here?" I asked him as he starts to think about it. "She's pregnant and we have kids at home alone that needs us right now.
"I will think about it." The man said back to me and left the room.
It's been hours, since he came into the room and we heard the door unlocked and the man comes back to give us his answer. I am hoping that he says yes to my request.
"I am not going to honor your request. I know that your bosses will do more if I had both of you." The man revealed. "Plus, I have someone watching your family and I know that your family members took in your kids."
That gave them a little pace that their kids where taken care of but they still needed to make sure they would keep the baby safe.
Kari's POV
I am sitting on the bed knowing that my baby is in danger right now. I have to protect my baby. Don is doing everything that he can to get us out of here. I just pray that whatever the men want, they would have to get it for them.
David's POV
I am not getting Don on the phone and I am starting to get worried about it. I tried to get a hold of Kari but there is no luck with her either. I walked back to the group to find Charlie and his dad there.
"Hey, what's going on?" I asked him."I have been trying to get a hold of Don and Kari but I am not having any luck with it."
"That's because they are missing. We have tried all night and this morning. I think that they got kidnapped. We need to find them now. The kids need their parents."
"I know that we need to find them and we will."I revealed to the team as we get started on the new case. We are trying to get as many leads as we can since we want to get them back as soon as possible.
Kari's POV
"Do you think that they have found out that we have been kidnapped?" I ask him as he wraps his arms around me trying to make sure that I am safe.
"I am pretty sure that they have. After all, they have my brother on their case if they don't find us soon. I am sure that as much as my brother loves our kids; he is ready for them to go home." Don said in responded to me as he gives me a kiss. "Just relax. Remember that we still have one child that we need to worry about the most right now."
I give him a smile right when the man comes and takes Don. I lay down on the bed hoping that he will be back soon.
Don's POV
"You are going to call your work and start this progress or your wife is going to suffer something that we both don't want to do." The man threatens me. I pick up the phone start calling my team hoping that they can trace the call. We get everything set up and I am taken back to my room. I find Kari laying on the bed sleeping. She needs her rest so I just sit next to her. It's two hours later when I hear gunshots and protective I pull Kari and cover her. The next thing that I knew, the team comes running into the room.
"What took you so long?" I asked David as Colby arrest the man that did this. "You know what forget, I just want to go home and see my family."
We get check out before getting into the car and we are both fine. We arrived at my father's house about twenty minutes later and just get out of the car where we are greeted by my brother and our kids. We made it home in time to see the fireworks start to go off.
Two weeks later- Chloe's POV
Dad and mom said that they were away on a business trip but I don't believe it so I am heading over to my favorite uncle's to get to the bottom of it. After talking to him for about an hour and half, I decided that they were telling the truth but I know that there is more to the story. It's just going to take a matter of time especially when I see Charlie picking up the phone to call my dad.
Charlie's POV
I just got a visit from my niece wondering what happen to her parents really which only means that she did not believe them. She must take that after me. I am proud of her but I need to tell her father what's going on. I picked up the house phone and dial Don's work number.
"She knows." I say into the phone
"Knows what?" Don asked me in responded
"That there is more then what you guys are telling her." I revealed and right after that I hang up.
Don's POV
I don't know what is going on with my wife lately. I should know this since is the fourth pregnancy that I have been in. I don't recall her being like this last time. Tonight I had a poker game with the boys and I was bringing Ben with me. She decided at the last minute to take the kids to the pool and won't be home for hours. I left her a voicemail after we are playing for a couple of hours to let her know that I had a case and wouldn't be home for a couple more hours. I walked into the house to find my daughter sitting down on the couch at 7 in the morning. I was surprised to find her there since normally she is still sleeping.
"Hey baby girl, what are you doing up?" I asked my daughter as I sit down next to her. I give her a kiss on the forehead as I see my wife coming down with her 27th week belly.
"Because I have something to do with grandpa and he is coming to get me." Chloe revealed her plans to me.
"Okay I am heading to bed since I have been up for the last day." I said as I stand up and head upstairs. I am almost sleeping when Ben walked into my bedroom and climbed onto the bed. I'm happy that he decided to lay down next to me. Two hours later, Kari walked into the room ready to get the day started. They needed to go to their doctor appointment today and the kids were going to their grandfather. I finally was ready to go and got the kids were ready to go. We head to the truck and load up to go. when we get to my dad's house, the kids spot the pool and run for it. We head to the doctor and wait to be called.
Kari's POV
I am looking forward to this since Don barely gets to go with me. Normally I take one of the kids and today the doctor gets to meet him. I see him on the phone and I reached for the phone.
"Honey, I am not going to like it if you are going to stay on that phone." I revealed to my husband as he puts away the phone and gives me a kiss on the forehead. The doctor came into the room right after that and started the visit. The baby is growing big and they they want to do a homebirth again. They are excited about the birth of their daughter. They head for lunch and talk about baby names. They agreed that they need a boy's name just in case and can't agree on a girl's name.
About two months later, I wake up with labor pains and my water breaking. Don wasn't home since he had a case. It's like our daughter's birth all over again. I called my midwife to come over since I don't want to wake up the kids. I greet my midwife at the door and take her up to my room. She waits until I am about seven celmiters to call him. Don arrives right as I get into the bath. We had talked about a water birth and thought that it would be okay. We give birth around four in the morning to twins a boy and a girl. They revealed that there was a second baby that was hidden by the first baby. They named their son Noah and named their daughter Alyssa. Now they felt that their family was finished after all they had seven kids together. They introduced them to their brothers and sisters.
