A/N: So this is completely OC's. It's based on a roleplay I'm doing with a couple friends on gaiaonline. Declan is my friend's character, she's Tony's wife and is pregnant with twins. Sammy is my character, she's with Gibbs, and pregnant with their little girl. Gibbs and Tony are off on a trip somewhere... possibly Gitmo, solving a case. I think that's everything you need to know, oh though I apologize for the abrupt ending but I wanted to get this up tonight and I didn't want it to go on with random little things like I sometimes do. With that said, I hope you enjoy this!

oOoOoOo

Restless Baby

oOoOoOo

Sammy was laying in bed propped up on various pillows but not asleep. She looked over at the clock on the side table, it's green numbers read 2am. She was getting frustrated, this was her second night since Gibbs had left on his trip for work and she hadn't slept for more than 20 minutes since he left. Every time she fell asleep the baby would kick her and wake her up.

She closed her eyes again when the baby calmed down and was almost asleep when she felt the kick in her side.

"Ow," Sammy whined as she rubbed the spot the baby had kicked, "Baby please Mommy has to sleep."

When the baby kicked again Sammy finally lost it. She couldn't help it when she started sobbing. She needed sleep and she couldn't handle this on the little amount of sleep she had gotten.

It took a little bit but once she calmed down enough that she thought she could talk she sat up and grabbed the phone, dialling the number for Tony's house, hoping Declan would still be up. She waited as the phone rang and when Declan picked up she went to talk but ended up starting to cry again.

"Sammy," Declan asked softly, "Are you ok, hun?"

Sammy took a second to relax a bit so she could speak and be understood.

"I can't sleep," Sammy said with a sniffle, "The baby keeps kicking and she won't let me sleep, she hasn't let me sleep since Gibbs left."

"I'll be over in about 15 minutes ok?" Declan said softly, "Will you be ok until I get there?"

"Yeah," Sammy said, as she rubbed her eyes, "Thanks."

"No Problem, Sweetie," Declan said, and Sammy could hear rustling in the background, "Try to relax, maybe have some tea or something, alright."

"Ok," Sammy said, rubbing her stomach when the baby kicked her again, though not as hard as she had been.

"Good, now I'm leaving the house so I'll see you soon," Declan said as she opened the door.

"Ok, see you," Sammy said and hung up the phone when she heard Declan hang up as well.

Sammy set the phone down on the nightstand and slowly slid out of bed. She made sure she had her balance before slowly making her way down the stairs and into the kitchen. She put the kettle on and grabbed a mug and a peppermint tea bag while she waited for kettle to boil.

oOoOoOo

When Declan let herself in 20 minutes later Sammy was sitting on the couch, a steaming cup of tea in her hands and a pillow behind her back, she was almost asleep until she felt the baby kick again and was startled awake.

"Hey," Declan said as she moved to sit beside Sammy and move her mug to the coffee table, "you alright?"

"Yeah," Sammy said with a sigh as she rubbed her side where the baby had kicked her, "I'll be better when she lets me sleep."

"She's probably anxious because she can sense that Gibbs isn't here and that isn't making you anxious," Declan said softly as she gently pulled Sammy into as much of a hug as their bellies would allow, "If you relax a little she probably will too."

"You're sure?" Sammy asked leaning into Declan's hug.

"It works with the boys," Declan said as gave her stomach an affectionate rub, "Usually. So you wanna finish your tea and take a second to relax before we go to bed?"

"Alright," Sammy said with a yawn as she sat up and shifted so she could grab her tea cup from where it was on the coffee table, "Do you want a cup?"

"Sure," Declan said using the armrest to push herself to her feet.

"I'll come make it for you," Sammy said setting her mug on the end table and moving to get up.

Declan gently placed a hand on Sammy's shoulder to keep her down, "I can do it, you relax."

"You're sure," Sammy asked, sitting on the edge of the couch.

"Yes, so sit back and relax," Declan said softly, in a motherly tone.

"Ok," Sammy said as she shifted so she was sitting back on the couch, her back resting on the pillow she had brought down with her, and picked up her mug again.

oOoOoOo

When Declan walked into the living room about 5 minutes later Sammy was asleep, leaning back on the couch, a hand on the empty mug resting on her stomach. Declan sat down on the couch and gently moved Sammy's mug to the coffee table then let her sleep while she sipped her own tea. When her mug was empty she moved to the edge of the couch and pushed herself up like she had before then took both mugs into the kitchen and rinsed them. That done she headed back into the living room and sighed when she saw Sammy, she didn't want to wake her, knowing that this was probably the more rest she'd gotten in the last couple days, but she knew from personal experience that if she let her stay there she'd be sore in the morning and being pregnant you're already sore so she didn't need any help with that. She finally stopped putting it off and walked over to Sammy.

"Sammy, sweetie," Declan said, softly shaking Sammy's shoulder, "Come on, bedtime."

"Hmmm," Sammy mumbled with a yawn as she rubbed her eyes.

"It's time for bed," Declan said as she held out a hand to help Sammy up, "I've slept on the couch before, it's not that comfortable when you're pregnant."

Sammy took the hand Declan offered and let Declan help her up. They headed upstairs and Sammy stopped outside the guest room.

"I'll grab you some extra pillows," Sammy said turning to head into the room.

"It's ok, you get into bed, I can grab them myself," Declan said as she placed a hand on Sammy's shoulder.

"Mkay," Sammy said without a fight, the baby had settled down and all she wanted was to go to sleep.

Sammy headed to the bedroom and crawled into bed, putting a pillow between her knees and one under her tummy then pulled the comforter over herself. By the time Declan came into the bedroom Sammy was snoring softly. Declan crawled into bed beside her and got comfortable, positioning various pillows around herself. Satisfied with where everything was placed she closed her eyes and let herself fall asleep, resting a hand on her stomach.

oOoOoOo
