_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Christmas morning...
It was a snowing Christmas morning in New Jersey. The House and Cuddy household were awaiting the arrival of a grandchild. Samantha was about nine months pregnant and her parents nearly killed her for being pregnant but then they realized that she understood she made a mistake. Samantha would own up to it and not try to hide the fact that she was fifteen and pregnant. Joey was scared to be a father. But him and Samantha were going to have their dream careers no matter what happened. Audri and Paige were already wide awake. When they heard something coming from upstairs. Jamie was already in Samantha's room helping her get to the elevator and not wake her parents up yet. House and Cuddy were already up because they heard the commotion coming from upstairs. Cuddy had already gotten ready and so did House.
" Mom, can you get Samantha's bag". Jamie said holding her sister before she fell.
" Already have it". Cuddy said.
" I want to kill Joey for doing this to me". Samantha said.
" Samantha, just breathe". Cuddy said.
" Dad! Lets go"! Samantha shouted.
" Is Rachel coming down"? Cuddy asked.
" She should be". Samantha said.
" Rachel come on sweetheart you gotta get down here". Cuddy yelled. Rachel got out of her bed and came down the stairs carefully.
" Mom, it hurts". Samantha said.
" I know sweetie. Just keep breathing". Cuddy said.
" Someone needs to call Joey and tell him that his Italian ass needs to get to the hospital". Samantha said.
" Greg! We need to go"! Cuddy shouted. He came out with Audri and Paige.
" Someone needs to call Joey"! Samantha yelled.
" Honey, I'll get right on that". Cuddy said. She grabbed her phone and called Joey. She just told him that he needs to get to the hospital.
" Lets go". Samantha said. They walked out of the house. Jamie got into her car with Samantha because Samantha needed to sit up front. House and Cuddy were in the van. Jamie tried to get to the hospital as fast as she could. Samantha's water hadn't broken yet which was really good. They got to the hospital and Cuddy had a nurse with a wheel chair waiting. Jamie got Samantha into the hospital and into the wheelchair so they could get up to OB. Joey was already there and he saw Samantha.
" Joey, I'm gonna kill you". Samantha said out of breath.
" Your water hasn't broken yet so there's still time to kill". Jamie smirked.
" This child needs to hurry up because mommy's in a lot of pain". Samantha said. The elevator opened and they got on. They got up to OB and a nurse got Samantha to a room. She got all set up and then Joey walked in.
" When can they give you anything for the pain"? Joey asked.
" When I'm 4 centimeters". Samantha said.
" How far are you"? Joey asked.
"3". Samantha replied.
" Has your water broken yet"? Joey asked.
" No. But this kid better hurry up". Samantha said grabbing her stomach.
" Just breathe". Joey said.
" That's such a load of shit". Samantha said.
" Just do it". Joey said.
" Is everyone here"? Samantha asked.
" Uh huh. There all waiting out in the waiting room for me to come out and tell them". Joey said.
" I was thinking about names. I like Jacob Alexander or Preston Alexander for a boy. And for a girl Isabella Lisa Marie Rose, Adelaide Lisa Marie Rose, or Emma Lisa Marie Rose". Samantha said.
" You added a name in there". Joey said.
" I like Adelaide. And I can call her Addie for short". Samantha said.
" I just want to know what it is". Joey said.
" What do you want more a boy or a girl"? Samantha asked.
" Boy". Joey said.
" Girl". Samantha said.
" My dad wants a boy and my mom wants a girl". Joey said.
" My dad also wants a boy and my mom also wants a girl. Jamie wants a boy and then all my friends want a girl". Samantha said.
" Lets check you out". Dr. Bryce said. Joey turned his head while Dr. Bryce did her examine.
" Samantha, you're ready to get pain meds. And I think I might rupture the membranes so we can move along". Dr. Bryce said.
" Please give me the pain meds". Samantha pleaded.
" The Anesthesiologist should be here soon to give you a spinal. You know the rules with getting a spinal we have do that one uncomfortable thing and then it's the needle in the spine". Dr. Bryce said and walked out.
" Just tell him to hurry up". Samantha said.
" Do want someone in here so they can hold you up besides me"? Joey asked.
" Thirteen". Samantha said.
" I'll go get her". Joey said and walked out. He grabbed Thirteen from the waiting room and everyone gave each other looks. Like why'd he say her? Joey and Thirteen walked into Samantha's room.
" How ya feeling"? Thirteen asked.
" Like crap. I'll feel a lot better when the give me the meds". Samantha said.
" I'm here". Dr. Nathan said.
" Please give me the meds". Samantha said.
" I have to wait for Dr. Bryce so she can do that thing that you're so eager for". Dr. Nathan said. Just then Dr. Bryce walked in. She did probably one of the most uncomfortable things Samantha ever felt and then it was time for pain meds.
" Alright you guys need to support her". Dr. Nathan said. Thirteen and Joey help sit her up and hold her up.
" I think my water just broke". Samantha said. Dr. Bryce came over to face Samantha. And sure enough Samantha's water broke. It missed Joey and Thirteen luckily.
" Well Samantha that part I didn't have to do". Dr. Bryce said.
" It hurts". Samantha said wincing.
" Almost done. There ya go". Dr. Nathan said.
" Can I lay back down"? Samantha asked.
" Oh yes you can". Dr. Nathan said. He cleaned up real quick so Samantha could lay down. Thirteen and Joey layed Samantha down carefully.
" Thanks Thirteen". Samantha said.
" No prob. I just can't wait so I can see it like you". Thirteen said.
" You have no idea". Samantha said. Thirteen walked out.
" Am I still gonna be killed"? Joey asked.
" This kid better be cute or I'm killing you". Samantha said.
" The baby will be here soon. Just wait. Your water broke so it won't be that long". Joey said.
" I hope not". Samantha said.
" Why"? Joey asked.
" Cause I don't want to be that sweaty for pictures". Samantha said.
" Has the meds kicked in"? Joey asked.
" Uh huh". Samantha said. About an hour passed and Dr. Bryce came in. She checked Samantha and she was at about 7 centimeters. Samantha was moving along quickly.
" Samantha, you're moving along great. You're lucky that you have a labor and delivery room so we don't have to move you. I'll be in to check in on you in about an hour. But if anything changes let a nurse know". Dr. Bryce said.
" Wonderful". Samantha said. Dr. Bryce walked out.
" Are you ready to be a mom"? Joey asked.
" No. But who is. I'm scared and frightened that I'll screw it up. Joey, I don't want my child to be a loser". Samantha said.
" He or she will not be a loser. Look at it's parents. We'll have an amazing son or daughter and your motherly instincts will kick in soon". Joey said.
" I hope you're right". Samantha said.
" I know I'm right". Joey said and kissed her forehead. Another hour passed and Dr. Bryce came back in. She checked Samantha and she was full dilated.
" I'm not ready". Samantha said.
" Sam, you're going to be a mom, no ones ready for that". Joey said.
" Alright Samantha on the next contraction you're gonna push". Dr. Bryce said. Samantha's next contraction came.
" 1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10... ". Joey said.
" Alright Samantha you're gonna push again". Dr. Bryce said.
" I don't think I can". Samantha said out of breath.
" Yes you can. Just give me a big push". Dr. Bryce said. Samantha gave her a big push.
" I can see the head. One more push and your baby will be here". Dr. Bryce said. Samantha gave her one final push and the baby came out.
" What is it"? Samantha asked.
" It's a boy". Dr. Bryce said.
" We have a boy". Joey said and kissed her forehead.
" We have a boy". Samantha said in tears.
" What is his name"? Joey asked.
" Preston Alexander Gregory Cuddy-Lombardo". Samantha said.
" Babe, he's beautiful". Joey said.
" Go over and look at him". Samantha said. Joey walked over to his son. The nurse was almost finished cleaning him up.
" We're going to get him weighed and everything. And then we'll bring him back for everyone to see". Dr. Bryce said.
" Can I at least see him real quick"? Samantha asked.
" Sure". Dr. Bryce said pulling the crib over to Samantha.
" He's beautiful". Samantha said.
" He'll be right back". Dr. Bryce said.
" Go announce it to the family". Samantha said. The nurse walked out with Preston.
" His full name is what you said Preston Alexander Gregory Cuddy-Lombardo"? Joey asked.
" Uh huh". Samantha said.
" I'll be right back". Joey said and gave her a kiss. He walked out into the waiting room. Everyone looked up at him.
" What is it"? Cuddy asked.
" It's a boy. Preston Alexander Gregory Cuddy-Lombardo. He's gonna be in the room soon so you can see him". Joey said.
" I have a grandson". House said.
" We have a grandson". Cuddy said. Her eyes were filling with tears.
" I better get back to Samantha". Joey said and walked back to Samantha's room.
" What they say"? Samantha asked.
" Your mom is crying. And your dad is happy it's a boy". Joey said.
" I want to know how big he is". Samantha said.
" I know. They'll have him back soon". Joey said.
" He's getting circumcised". Samantha said.
" I was just going to say that". Joey said.
" We don't have to have a big Jewish party dear". Samantha smirked.
" I wasn't going to say anything about that". Joey said.
" You were too". Samantha said.
" Maybe I was". Joey said.
" He should be back soon shouldn't he"? Samantha asked.
" You're already turning into an overprotective mother aren't you"? Joey asked.
" Maybe". Samantha said.
" Sam, he's fine". Joey said.
" I hope he's not a mama's boy". Samantha said.
" Why"? Joey asked.
" Because I want a little girl that's my little girl. Not a daddy's little girl". Samantha said.
" I've always wanted a girl that was a daddy's girl. But I wanted a boy first". Joey said.
" Well you got your wish". Samantha said.
" Our son was born Christmas day. He's gonna hate that growing up". Joey said.
" He should've picked a better day". Samantha said.
" Like when"? Joey asked.
" Like when he was due". Samantha said.
" He didn't want to wait for January 20th". Joey said.
" I'm just happy his lungs are fully developed". Samantha said.
" I know you are". Joey said.
" Some one came to say hi". The nurse said. She rolled in a crib that had Preston in a blue blanket with a blue hat. He had a white long sleeved body suit on.
" How much did he weigh"? Samantha asked.
" 6 pounds 6 and a half ounces". The nurse said.
" He's a tiny baby". Joey said.
" He's the same size I was when I was born". Samantha said.
" I'll leave you guys alone". The nurse said. Joey picked up Preston from the crib gently and walked him over to Samantha.
" Go get everyone". Samantha said.
" I will in a little bit". Joey said.
" Hey Preston. It's mommy. What color hair does he have? I couldn't tell". Samantha said.
" He has a lot of blonde hair". Joey said.
" Good he takes after me". Samantha smirked. Preston opened his eyes a little bit.
" And he has his moms eyes". Joey said.
" Are you saying I have ugly eyes"? Samantha asked offended.
" It means that all the girls in school are going to be falling all over him". Joey said.
" You still didn't answer my question". Samantha said.
" No you have the most gorgeous set of blue eyes I've ever seen". Joey said and kissed the top of her head.
" Go get the gang. They're dying to meet him". Samantha said.
" Be right back again". Joey said and kissed her. He walked out to get the gang.
" It looks like it's just you and me. You're probably one of the best things that have happened to me besides your dad". Samantha said. She kissed his little forehead gently. Chase, Cameron, Thirteen, Foreman, Cuddy, House, Jamie, Audri, Paige, Rachel, Carli, Sophia, Maddie ( replaced Lilly), Bryant, Jake, Andre, and Joey walked in and took his place right by Samantha.
" So the name that Joey said is his official final name? You aren't going to change it"? Maddie asked.
" Yes Maddie, Preston Alexander Gregory Cuddy-Lombardo is his full name". Samantha said.
" Just checking". Maddie said.
" How much did he weigh"? Cuddy asked.
" 6 pounds 6 and a half ounces". Samantha said handing Preston to Joey.
" He weighed exactly what you weighed". Cuddy said.
" Yeah". Samantha said.
" Anyone want to hold him"? Joey asked.
" I want to hold my grandson". House said. Joey handed Preston to House.
" I thought I was having a girl. But no I was surprised". Samantha said.
" Are you happy that you were surprised"? Cameron asked.
" Yeah. If I ever have another baby I want to be surprised. And the keyword in that sentence is if. So I'm not getting pregnant again anytime soon or even if at all". Samantha said.
" You wanted a girl didn't you"? House asked.
" Daddy, was it that hard to figure out"? Samantha asked.
" No". House answered.
" I better not get a baby brother or sister anytime soon". Samantha said.
" Kind of to late for that". Cuddy said.
" You're pregnant! Mom, how could you not tell me that my son who's gonna be the nephew of who ever's coming along"? Samantha said shocked.
" We just found out yesterday". Cuddy said.
" Well in that case. I want a baby brother". Samantha smirked.
" If your dad can stop getting me pregnant with girls". Cuddy said.
" Dad, give mom Preston". Samantha said. House handed Preston to Cuddy.
" What color hair does he have"? Cuddy asked.
" He has a very full head of blonde hair and he has my blue eyes". Samantha said.
" Is he getting..."? Cuddy couldn't finish her sentence because Samantha interrupted her.
" Yes. We already talked about that". Samantha said.
" Well that's good". Cuddy said.
" I don't get it". Jamie said.
" Do ever get anything"? Samantha asked.
" No". Jamie said. Just then Wilson walked into the door with Nathan.
" Sorry. I missed pretty much everything. What is it and what is it's name"? Wilson said out of breath.
" It's a boy. And his name is Preston Alexander Gregory Cuddy-Lombardo". Samantha said.
" Well congrats". Wilson said.
" Where were you"? Samantha asked.
" I had to get Nathan from Delilah then stop at my office and then come here". Wilson said.
" That's why you missed everything". Samantha said.
" Did everyone miss the big thing he said"? House asked.
" What"? Evey one asked.
" Delilah". House said.
" You're seeing Delilah"? Samantha asked. Cuddy handed Preston to Cameron so they could get a better look at him.
" Yeah". Wilson said.
" What the hell"? Samantha asked.
" I didn't want to tell anybody". Wilson said.
" Just shut up and look at my son". Samantha said.
" Samantha, Aunt Laura and them will be here soon". Cuddy said.
" Sweet". Samantha said. Preston yawned.
" He's so cute when he does that". Cuddy smiled.
" Okay quit loving on my son because I haven't gotten enough time to love on him". Samantha said. Cameron walked over to Samantha and handed Preston to her.
" Where'd you come up with his name"? Carli asked.
" His middle names were no brainers. His first name was because I've always loved the name Preston". Samantha said.
" I can understand that". Carli said.
" What time is it"? Samantha asked.
" Almost 12". Cuddy said.
" What time was I born"? Samantha asked.
" 8:35 a.m. You were a morning baby. No wonder your not a morning person". Cuddy said.
" What was his time honey"? Samantha asked.
" 9:35 a.m". Joey said.
" He's so cute". Samantha said.
" You have a boy". Cuddy said.
" I think if I have another boy I'm naming him after Jake". Samantha said.
" Both of your sons will have the same first middle name". Cuddy said.
" I know". Samantha said.
" You're loving him too much and he's not even a day old". House said.
" Daddy! He's my baby. Y'all have been loving on him I haven't even gotten the chance to". Samantha said.
" How do you like joining the mom team"? Cameron asked.
" I like it. I'm still so scared that I'm gonna screw him up". Samantha said.
" I'll screw him up for you Samantha". House said.
" You're not even talking to my son. I refuse to have him turn out like you I say with love". Samantha said.
" But than I wouldn't be an awesome grandfather". House said.
" Screw up my baby brother or sister". Samantha said.
" No, I think screwing up Preston would be easier". House said.
" I want my son to have somewhat of a normal life. So don't screw him up". Samantha said.
" I'll do it anyways". House said.
" I'm not letting mom put him in day care here because you'll sign him out and then you'll screw him up". Samantha said.
" Samantha, I'll assure you that your dad won't sign him out. And if anyone does it'll be me because I would want to see him". Cuddy said.
" Mom, I don't want my son anywhere near dad. Who knows what he'll tell him to do". Samantha said.
" I'll teach him how to screw with you". House said.
" Do that to your son". Samantha said.
" What if I don't have a son"? House asked.
" Screw up Wilson's his son's already screwed up enough". Samantha said. Cameron, Thirteen, Carli, Sophia, and Maddie giggled.
" I take offense to that". Wilson said.
" Good. I'll teach my son how to do that". Samantha said.
" Alright, that's enough. Samantha Elizabeth Cuddy you need to rest. Everyone that has a job here get back to it. Carli, Sophia, Maddie, Bryant, Jake, and Andre go home. House, you also have to go to work. Audri, Paige, and Rachel you're coming with mommy. And Jamie sit in on the differential". Cuddy said. Everyone did as they were instructed except Samantha. It was just Joey, Samantha, and Preston.
" He's so cute". Samantha said.
" Hon, you keep saying that". Joey said.
" I know but it's true". Samantha said.
" I know". Joey said.
" You can't move in until you're 18". Samantha said.
" I know that". Joey said.
" Well maybe my mom and dad will let you. Preston's your so too and I don't want him to not see his dad". Samantha said.
" Do you think my parents would"? Joey asked.
" Maybe. I know my parents would as long as I didn't get pregnant again". Samantha said.
" Do you think they'll get you a bigger bed"? Joey asked.
" Uh huh. My full size bed can barely fit us". Samantha said.
" Sorry my parents aren't here". Joey said.
" Sorry I didn't notice". Samantha said.
" They're kicking me out". Joey said.
" Is that why you're asking about moving in"? Samantha asked.
" Uh huh". Joey said.
" Baby, you just need to ask. There's nothing to be ashamed of except for the fact that your parents are kicking you out. When do have to be out by"? Samantha said.
" I have until next week. And I'm gonna go find your dad". Joey said.
" Don't leave me here alone". Samantha begged.
" I'll be right back". Joey said giving her a kiss. Joey left.
" I guess it's just you and me again". Samantha said giving Preston a kiss on the forehead.
" Samantha, do you want us to take Preston to the nursery while we move you into your recovery suite"? Nurse Carson asked. Nurse Carson is one of the nurse's that Samantha knew and trusted.
" Can he come with me"? Samantha asked.
" No problem. Will just have to put him into his crib". Nurse Carson said.
" Thanks". Samantha said.
" We'll tell Joey and everyone that we moved you". Nurse Carson said.
" Thanks again". Samantha said.
" You're welcome". Nurse Carson said. Nurse Gabriel put Preston in his crib a wheeled him out before Nurse's Carson and Alexander got Samantha out. They wheeled them down to the biggest suite. It had a private bathroom, flat screen tv, everything a new mom could want. They moved Samantha over to her new bed and moved Preston close to her. Samantha took the blanket off of him and picked him up. Her lactation consultant was coming to talk to her soon. She hoped her mom could be there for that one. The her lactation consultant came into her room.
" Hello Samantha". Amy said.
" Hey Amy". Samantha said.
" I'm gonna shut the blinds and we'll get down to it". Amy said closing the blinds. Then Amy helped Samantha and told her the best ways to feed she left. Samantha had fed Preston and he was now sleeping. Then Joey walked in.
" Hey". Joey whispered.
" Hey". Samantha whispered back.
" He's sleeping". Joey whispered.
" I know". Samantha said.
" I'm gonna take pictures without the flash". Joey said.
" Good idea. What my dad say"? Samantha said.
" He said it was okay. But he also said that if I hurt you I'm a dead man". Joey said.
" That's good. Are we getting a bigger bed"? Samantha said.
" Uh huh". Joey said.
" Awesome". Samantha said.
" I love you". Joey said giving her a kiss.
" I love you too". Samantha said.
" He's gonna be a doctor or a lawyer. I can feel it". Joey said.
" I can't wait to take him home. You have everything in your car right"? Samantha said.
" I got a new car. My dad bought me an SUV. I got everything but in there. The car seat holder and car seat". Joey said.
" Well that's good". Samantha said.
" You look tired. Go to sleep. I'll be right here". Joey said.
" I'm afraid I'm gonna wake up and he's not gonna be here". Samantha said.
" He will be. Just go to sleep". Joey said. She soon fell asleep. Samantha had been asleep a couple hours when Preston woke up. Joey went over and picked him up. He knew that Preston needed a diaper change. He changed his diaper. He held his son while he watched Samantha sleep. Then she woke up.
" Hey". Samantha said.
" Hey". Joey said.
" How's he doing"? Samantha asked.
" He's doing good. He looks a bit jaundiced". Joey said.
" Sunlight and breast milk". Samantha said.
" We don't have sunlight right now". Joey said.
" We'll get rid of it". Samantha said.
" Do you want to hold him"? Joey asked.
" I always want to hold him". Samantha said. Joey got up and handed him to her.
" We're a little family". Joey said.
" That's going to expand". Samantha said.
" You want more"? Joey asked.
" Yeah. But not right at this second". Samantha said.
" When can you go home"? Joey asked.
" Two days not counting today". Samantha said.
" So maybe I can go out and shop for him"? Joey asked.
" That would be great. I want him to have some blue stuff. Get that blanket that we saw at target for him. The blue one with the puppy. And then what ever you want from there. If you get any team stuff. He's having the New England Patriots and the Boston Red Sox". Samantha said.
" Yes ma'am". Joey said.
" Can I come in"? Cuddy asked.
" Hey mom. Where's the girls"? Samantha said.
" They're with your father". Cuddy said.
" So is the any gossip about me yet"? Samantha asked.
" I heard the nurses talking about how cute he is. And I haven't heard anything but that". Cuddy said.
" Do want to hold him"? Samantha asked.
" Sure". Cuddy said. Cuddy walked over. Samantha handed Preston to her.
" He's amazing mom. I don't I can picture my life without him now". Samantha said.
" That's how I felt with Jake. He was the perfect baby. He didn't cry or anything". Cuddy said.
" You want to show him off don't you"? Samantha asked.
" I can't help it. He's a pretty baby". Cuddy smiled.
" He looks like dad a little bit. But I know he's gonna be the spitting image of Joey". Samantha said.
" He has your dad's eyes. The blonde hair is you". Cuddy said.
" Daddy, had blonde hair when he was younger". Samantha said.
" Samantha, he's perfect. I gotta go. It's almost 7 feed him and then put him down. He'll wake up in the middle of the night just like Audri and Paige. But it's worth it. You know how to do everything. That's about all. I love you". Cuddy said handing Preston to Samantha. Cuddy kissed Samantha on the forehead.
" You love who? Me or Preston"? Samantha asked.
" Both of you". Cuddy said. She walked out.
" It's feeding time buddy". Samantha said. Joey closed the curtain and Samantha got ready to feed Preston. Joey handed her the pillow and Samantha got Preston positioned. Then she started feeding him. It was about 45 minutes and then he was done. Samantha burped him and then he started to fall asleep. When he was completely down she set him carefully in the crib and drifted off herself. Preston had woken up about 5 times that night. It was the same routine every time. By the time it was morning. Samantha and Joey were wiped out. They didn't know that he was that demanding. But Samantha wouldn't change it for the world.
