This will be a smacked chapter, as I promised

This will be a smacked chapter, as I promised. Oh, and this takes place about two months after the previous chapter. Sorry I haven't updated in ages but exams and revision equals no time to update. Hope you all like though, and please review. I still don't own any of the characters.

"Okay, before I start, Danny and Lindsay have told me they have an announcement to make so go ahead guys." Mac said

"We're going to have a baby" they said in unison, and then Lindsay added "and we'd like Mac and Stella to be godparents, with the rest of you to be honorary uncles"

"When's he/she due?", "Do you know the sex?" and "Have you got a scan picture?" buzzed around the room.

"One at a time!" Danny exclaimed

"When's the baby due?" Hawkes asked

"15th May" Lindsay responded, not seeing the look that Stella gave Mac

"But that's a month before ours is due!" Stella blurted out

Shocked faces radiated around the room. "But… but that's just weird" Adam said

"We are married, Adam" Mac responded on the brink of laughing.

"No, it's not that, it's that both of you will be parents within a month of each other when you got married at the same time."

"Guess we'll just have two CSI babies though"

A month later (Stella is now 5 months gone)

"Ok, Mrs Taylor, I'm just going to put this jelly on your stomach. It might be a bit cold," said the sonographer

"Right, here's your baby," she continued, "and here's the other one" as she burst into a smile.

"The OTHER one?" Mac said as he fainted.

"Mac! MAC!" Stella screamed at him "don't you dare die on me"

"He's not dead, Mrs Taylor, he's just fainted." The sonographer pointed out.

"Oh," Stella said, embarrassed and turned bright red.

"What's happening?" said Mac as he started to come round

"Well, we just found out we're having twins, you've just fainted and I thought you'd died." Stella replied

"Please say you were just joking about the last part."

"No, dead serious- no pun intended."

"At least this gives you permission to buy double now and max out our cards"

"Ha ha Mac, very funny"

3 months later (Lindsay's now 9 months)

Stella and Lindsay are both at the Lab cos they were really bored staying at home.

"I thought I was the workaholic" Mac said to Stella, "you're supposed to be resting at home with mini- Taylor and Taylor junior"

"But it's so boring, plus here if anything happens you can be with me in a moment and we're nearer to the hospital."

"Ok, you can stay, but no ballistics, or anything other than processing DNA or fingerprints. Agreed?"

"Of course, it's hardly like I'm going to want to go out to a scene in my condition- whoever said morning sickness ended after three months evidently was never pregnant."

Just then Lindsay waddled by (being nine months pregnant, you could hardly call it walking) and Mac, being Mac noticed right away.

"Messer!"

Lindsay turned around, like a naughty kid being caught red handed, "Yes."

"One heavily pregnant woman is enough for us to deal with but two? What's your reason?"

"There are only so many times you can look at the same four walls without wondering if you should section yourself just to get out."

"Does Danny know you're here?"

"I was just on my … ouch" Lindsay went white as Mac and Stella turned to each instinctively knowing what was happening.

"Stella, you stay here whilst I go find Danny."

Mac must have gone for less than 5 minutes, but in that time it became very evident that the Messer baby was coming when Lindsay's waters broke on Mac's couch.

"I think you'd better get Lindsay to the hospital right now" Mac said to Danny when he re-entered his office

"Come on Montana, you heard Mac, we need to get going."

"Can't we just stay here, I don't want to move"

"Well, no offence Linds, but I don't think that Mac would take kindly to having a baby being born in his office and it's not the most hygienic and safe places to be born." Stella said

"Don't leave me though," Lindsay replied to both Stella and Danny

"We'll all take Mac's car."

"What about asking me, and why do I need to come?" Mac interrupted

"Because I'm pretty sure that you want to be there at the birth of our twins." Stella replied, as a glimmer of pain went across her face.

"Whoa, right everyone to the car right now, no child is to be born in the lab." Mac started ordering about.

Five hours later and Stella had undergone a C-section, and so- along with Mac- was the proud parent of Cara Aponi and Amy Mia. However, because the twins were a month early, they had been immediately transferred to SCBU (Special Care Baby Unit) so neither Stella nor Mac had been given the chance to have a hug with their daughters. It was also the reason why Mac was wondering aimlessly round the hospital 2 hours later when Danny found him to tell him that Lindsay had just had a boy, Beppe Daniel Montana.

"What you doing here, Mac? Stella needs you." Danny asked him

"They were so tiny, we didn't get to hold them" Mac replied. Danny wasn't sure whether he was just muttering to himself or actually responding to the question.

"C'mon Mac you're stronger than this and the twins will be alright. They're yours and Stella's, they'll beat everything, you bet on it… you haven't told me their names yet so who are they?"

"The eldest is called Cara Aponi and the other is Amy Mia. Both weighed 3 ounces exactly."

Sure enough, the twins were allowed home two weeks later; just a week after Stella had come home and Lindsay came round with Beppe most days to keep Stella company and stop each other going insane.
