Getting to the hospital was easier said than done considering there truly was a blizzard happening outside. The snow was so coming down so fast that you could barely see five feet in front of the car.
"Are they seriously making us come in?" Kurt sighed exasperated. "If we're not careful, we're going to be the ones in the ER."
"I'm being careful." Blaine assured him. "And, we're almost there." He continued to drive, trying desperately to see through the snow, when he saw a man in all black waving his arms frantically, but no one seemed to be stopping. "Do you think we should stop?" Blaine asked.
"He looks desperate and we are doctors." Kurt said. Blaine nodded his head and pulled over to the side of the road. Now he could see that the man wasn't alone. There was a van pulled over next to him. Kurt and Blaine stepped out of the car and instantly the man was next to them.
"Oh god, thank you so much for stopping." the man said. "My wife, she needs help."
"Okay, sir." Kurt said. "We're both doctors and we can help you."
"How could we get more lucky?" The man said with a smile. "God is on our side tonight. My wife is in the car." he added before running over to the door. Kurt and Blaine followed behind him. When the man opened the door, neither Blaine nor Kurt expected to see a woman moaning in pain as she clutched her large distended stomach.
"My contractions are one minute apart. This baby is coming now." She sobbed. Kurt and Blaine looked at one another. Neither one of them knew what to do.
"Please, help her." the man begged. Kurt jumped in and got down in front of the woman. "Blaine, I need you to grab one of her legs." Kurt said. "You too…" Kurt paused because he didn't know the man's name.
"Kyle." The man told him.
"Kyle, I need you to grab one of her legs as well." Kurt told him.
"We're almost there Stacy. You're going to have a baby in your arms soon enough." He whispered as he ran his fingers through her sweaty hair.
"Okay, Stacy." Kurt said trying to get the sobbing woman's attention. "I need you to push for me okay." Kurt said. The woman screamed and bared down. "Good Stacy, you're doing so good."
"I can't do it anymore." She cried. "It hurts!"
"Just one more push. One more push and you'll have a baby." Kurt said.
"Come on honey, you can do it." Kyle whispered into his wife's ear.
"Okay." Stacy whimpered out as she got up enough strength for one last push. As she did that, Kurt held his arms out and caught the baby, but it wasn't breathing. Kurt had seen how to deliver a baby. He didn't know what to do with a baby who wasn't breathing.
"Give the baby to me." Blaine said immediately. He took his jacket off and wrapped it around the freezing baby before opening up the drivers seat and laying the baby down on the seat. He began rubbing tiny circles on the baby's chest, hoping to open up some of the fluid in his lungs. "Come on baby, come on baby." he repeated.
"Why isn't my baby crying?" Stacy yelled from the backseat.
"Blaine is doing all he can." Kurt told her because Blaine was took focused. Finally, a small little whimper escaped the baby's mouth.
"He's breathing, but we don't much time. He's getting hypothermic." Blaine said. "We have to get him warm. We have to get them both warm." he added, wrapping the baby up tighter and rushing over to their warm car. Meanwhile, Kurt and Kyle worked to help move Stacy over to the other car. It was extremely dangerous considering that she hadn't delivered the placenta yet, but they didn't have any time. Kurt got into the drivers seat and raced them to the hospital. When they got there, Blaine rushed the newborn in and ran up to the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) and Kurt grabbed a wheelchair and ran Stacy into the ER. Rachel was the first one he saw so he called her over.
"What happened?" She asked.
"We saw them on the way to the hospital. I delivered her baby in the back of a car. Blaine took the baby up to the NICU." Kurt told her.
"Kurt, I don't f-feel good." Stacy gasped out before her eyes rolled back in her head and she passed out. When Kurt went to feel a pulse, he noticed the pool of blood accumulated down near her groin.
"Shit, she's hemorrhaging." Kurt said. "We need some help!" he yelled. Cooper, who had just walked into the ER saw them and ran over.
"We have to get her to an OR." Cooper said. "Now!" Cooper and Rachel moved her onto a bed and then began moving it towards the elevators. Kurt went to go with them, but he felt a hand grab onto his arm.
"Please, what's going on?" Kyle asked. "My wife and my baby?" he asked.
"We are doing everything we can. I'll come and give you an update later, but now the best place that I can be is with your wife." Kurt said before racing off to catch up to Cooper and Rachel.
Up in the NICU, Blaine was desperately trying to get this baby warm. He with the help of a few nurses had intubated him and started him on an IV where he was receiving warm fluids to warm him up. But, his oxygen levels were dangerously low. He wasn't out of the woods yet.
"I'm going to go check on the mother." Blaine told the nurses. "Do you have him?"
"Yes Dr. Anderson." One replied.
"Page me if anything happens okay." Blaine said. "I'll be right back." He walked down to the ER to look for Kurt, but he didn't see him. Kyle, however, did see him.
"Blaine!" he called running up to him.
"My boy, is he okay?" he asked.
"His oxygen levels are dangerously low, but we are doing everything that we possibly can for your son." Blaine told him.
"And my wife?" he asked.
"I was coming to check on her, but I don't know where she is." Blaine replied. "I went directly up to the NICU with your son."
"She started bleeding really badly." Kyle replied. "They took her to surgery."
"I will go check on her and give you an update." Blaine said. "I will be right back. I promise." Blaine didn't bother waiting for the elevator. He ran up the two flights of stairs and into the OR, making sure to put a mask over his face before he did.
"Can I have an update for the husband please?" Blaine asked. "He's really upset." Cooper looked over to Blaine.
"It-it's not good." Cooper said. "Right now, we'd need a miracle." Blaine sighed, he felt so bad for this man. He could lose his wife and baby all in one day and on Christmas no less. He walked back downstairs. This time he took his time as he tried to figure out what to say to this poor man. When he get to the ER, he saw Kyle and walked over to him.
"Did you find out about my wife?" Kyle asked.
"Kyle, the doctors are doing everything possible for your wife, but right now, it's not looking too good." Blaine said slowly.
"So, she could die?" he asked.
"We are doing every-" Blaine began before Kyle cut him off.
"No. Stop. You have to say it. I have to be ready." Kyle said. "Could she die?" he asked again.
"Yes." Blaine replied.
"And my son too?" he asked.
"Yes." Blaine repeated. It was hard seeing Kyle look so upset. His bottom lip was quivering and Blaine could tell he was using everything he had to not fall apart.
"Blaine, I don't know if you're a religious person, but would you please pray with me?" he asked. Blaine nodded, even though he was not religious. Blaine grabbed his hand and Kyle shut his eyes. "Lord, please watch over my Stacy and my newborn baby boy. They're my whole world Lord and please just save them both. I know that's a lot to ask, but please...please." Kyle tapered off as tears rolled down his face. Suddenly, Blaine felt his pager go off. He checked it and it was the baby.
"I have to go." Blaine said before rushing away. He ran up the stairs and into the NICU. "What's going on?" he asked.
"His oxygen levels, they're up." the nurse said with a smile. "I think he's out of the woods. His temp is up to 98.5."
"Will one of you go and get his father?" Blaine asked. "The man needs some good news." The other nurse nodded and left to get Kyle. Blaine lifted the baby from the isolet and help the newborn in his arms. "You stay like this. You stay healthy because your daddy needs you." Five minutes later, Kyle came into the NICU with a gown on. "Hey daddy, are you ready to hold your baby?" Kyle nodded and reached out to hold his baby boy.
"He's so beautiful." Kyle said, happy tears in his eyes. Blaine sat with Kyle in the NICU for a while, until finally Kurt came in.
"Your wife is a miracle." Kurt said.
"She's alive?" he asked completely in shock.
"Yes, and she's awake." Kurt said. "Why don't you bring your son in to see his mother?" Kyle smiled, got up from the rocking chair and followed Kurt and Blaine to see his wife. When they got there, Stacy's face lit up and Kyle placed the tiny baby into her arms.
"So, I know that it's been pretty crazy tonight, but do you have a name for him?"
"We think that Anderson Kurt Walker sounds like a perfect name." Kyle said. "You two have helped us so much. You were the only people to stop out there. Without you two, both my wife and baby would be dead."
"Thank you so much." Kurt said. "We're both truly honored."
"Merry Christmas, I'm glad that you got your Christmas miracles." Blaine added. Kyle and Stacy smiled at them before they left the room. They went over to the nurse counter and continued to look at how happy Kyle and Stacy were with little Anderson.
"Do you believe in God?" Blaine asked.
"No, I believe in medicine and in logic." Kurt replied.
"Well, all of the odds and logic were stacked against that family, but they're all safe and healthy." Blaine said. "Sometimes I just have to feel like there's something bigger out there, to make sense of things like this."
"Either way, they're happy." Kurt said. "You know something else I believe in?"
"What?" Blaine asked.
"I believe in you and me." Kurt said with a smile. "Merry Christmas." Blaine smiled and leaned in and kissed Kurt.
"Merry Christmas." He replied. Even though they didn't get to spend their Christmas at home like they had planned. At least they were together and had gotten to witness two truly amazing Christmas miracles.
