Family
Harriet looked up from her desk as she heard Harm and Mac cry out, she ran to the door and looked in to see them hugging then kissing deeply
"Is everything all right, Commander, Colonel?" All three people jumped as the Admiral spoke, Harm and Mac broke apart quickly, Harriet only then noticing the unshed tears in Mac's eyes.
"Yes Sir" She said, "I'm pregnant…Sir" Harriet let out a small squeal and ran over to Mac
"That's great ma'am," she said hugging her friend
"Thanks Harriet"
"Congratulations Colonel, Commander"
Thank you Sir" they said in unison before turning and returning to work along with Harriet.
At the SGC
SG-3 walked down the ramp
"No good sir, we can't find him"
"Good work people, that was our last chance. Go get checked out and report for the debriefing"
"Yes sir" Jack walked back up to his office and reclined in his chair but not for long
"General O'Neill to the infirmary" Boomed over the PA system, he sighed assuming there was some disease running rampant that SG-3 had just brought home. However when he got there he saw Sam on a bed waiting for him
"What's up" she rubbed her belly gently as an expression of pain made it's way onto her face "Really?" he asked face lighting up as a little kid who had just been told he could have any toy in the store. He rushed over and gripped her hand
"It's official" she said
"How long?"
"We have awhile; can you get someone to contact Dad?" He picked up the nearest phone on the wall and got onto someone in the control room
"Contact the Tok'ra, get Jacob here now, it's urgent, tell him his kid is having a kid" he hung up "Done" he grinned at her
JAG office
"Mackenzie" Mac answered as her phone rang
"Mac, hi, it's Janet"
"Hi, what's up?"
"Sam's having the baby; if you can try and get here she would really appreciate it"
"Wow! OK I'll see what I can do, I'll get there at some stage" They both hung up and Mac went straight to the Admiral's office.
"Colonel?"
"Sir, request permission to go back to Cheyenne Mountain for a day"
"Why is that Colonel?"
"Sir, my friend is having a baby; I would just like to be there for a little while"
"I suppose you would like to take the Commander too?"
"Yes sir"
"I really can't spare the both of you"
"It will only be for tomorrow, we'll be back by Friday I promise, and we'll keep on track with our cases"
"All right but I expect you both back Friday morning, and on time!"
"Yes sir" She turned and went straight to Harm's office
"Pack your gear flyboy, we're securing early, Sam's having the baby"
"Huh?"
"We're going back to Cheyenne"
"Oh, right" he stood and began to pack his things as Mac retuned to her office shaking her head at her husband. Not long after they were in their car on their way home, they had managed to secure 2 spots on the next flight which they were rushing to get.
Back at the SGC
"Unscheduled off world activation" Rang through the halls
"I'll let someone else get it" Jack said, sitting by Sam
In the control room
Jacob practically ran down the ramp
"Where is she?" He called up to the Control room
"Infirmary Sir" Jacob turned and ran
"Sam?" he said running into the infirmary.
"Dad" she said smiling, they hugged gently as Sam winced slightly
"How are you going?" she smiled weekly as the contraction passed.
Harm and Mac's House
As they rushed around their rooms to pack they ran straight into each other, Harm grabbed Mac to steady her and they were inches apart, he leaned down and kissed her gently, she sighed as they parted.
"I'm so happy" he said placing a hand on her flat stomach, he kissed her again before she could reply
"I'm glad" she said not meeting his eyes
"I know this feels too good to be true but it will happen for us, I know" he smiled down at her and grabbed their bags off the bed "are you packed, we have to get going" she nodded, yes and they left for the airport.
SGC 4 hours later
"Sir?" an SF approached Jack
"Yes sergeant?
"There are two people here, saying they have clearance"
"JAG's?"
"Yes sir"
"Send them through and escort them down here"
"Yes sir"
10 mins later
"Sam" Mac said running in, hugging her friend.
"Hey" she said grimacing, her contractions getting closer,
"How long has it been?"
"Almost 5 hours"
"How close are you?"
"Not long now" said Janet who had just checked her "I'm gonna have to ask everyone to wait outside" They all left except Jack
"Ok Sam, you're ready, start pushing when you feel the next contraction" she nodded and bore down, gripping the bed with one hand and Jack's hand with her other.
"Good, relax and then do the same again" Sam nodded and groaned as the next contraction hit almost straight away, she dropped back on the bed breathing heavily
"You're doing well honey, just one more" the next contraction came and went too quickly and Sam cried out in pain
"Come, on, you can do it, he gripped her left hand with his own and then used his other hand to help her sit up, she bore down when the next contraction hit and they heard the baby cry as Janet cleared the airways and Jack cut the cord.
"Congratulations you two, you have a son" she said passing the tiny baby to an exhausted Sam
"He's beautiful" Jack said wiping the sweat-drenched hair off her face "what will we call him?" he asked
"That'll need some thought," she looked into his eyes
"Sorry to interrupt but would you like anyone in here yet?" They both looked at Sam
"Just for a little while" she said Janet brought in the group who all crowded around the new family
"What's his name?" asked Daniel
"We're not sure yet we're still discussing it" Jack replied Sam passed the baby to Jacob who looked at his precious grandson like there was nothing else, Eventually everyone had held the little boy except Mac, Harm turned to her and placed the tiny baby in her arms. Mac looked at the child in awe, blonde hair and blue eyes just like his mother with his tiny fingers and toes
"He's beautiful Sam" Harm put his arm around her and kissed her temple
"We should go, let you get some rest" Harm said
"Have you got somewhere to stay?" enquired Jack
"Well the sergeant who greeted us took our bags to the VIP room"
"Good, you guys should rest too after coming all this way"
"When do you have to go home?" asked Sam
"We said we'd be back on Friday"
"OK" They made their way to the VIP room which they remembered from last time. Once they were inside they opened their bags and changed into their pyjamas and after completing their necessary routines got into bed.
Late that night Mac awoke to a stabbing pain in her back and her heart dropped, it was a different pain but she didn't doubt there was something wrong, she shifted, trying to make herself more comfortable and in doing so woke Harm.
"What's up?" he said groggily
"Back" she said
"Is everything OK?"
"I honestly don't know Harm"
"Why don't you let me rub it for you?" Most of the time Mac would say no but right now she would do anything she rolled onto her stomach and pulled her shirt up as Harm moved to straddle her hips and gently rubbed her back. Mac groaned in approval as the pain lessened slightly providing hope in her sad heart.
OK I'm gonna leave it there for now because I haven't updated in forever and I feel really slack! I have just started my final year at school and it is hectic so I will be very slow this year but it will get finished eventually. I am so sorry and those who have stuck with me are legends!!!!
By the way what do you think for Sam's baby, I'm thinking Jacob somewhere so get creative…
Great response for the names and stuff but some of them weren't specific to the child Rabb or O'Neill anyway what about our new little boy. I thought Jackson but then I didn't think of the Jackson family of the story so yeah.
Thanks for sticking with me
