Our One Day

Everyone is Together Again

As Will comes into the Living room he sees Hailey, Kevin, and Vanessa have arrived. Hailey and Vanessa having a hold of his children. Jay, Kevin, and Adam are chatting about recent cases. Nat is just relaxing in the Chair he put her in earlier. Will sighs and goes to his wife first.

W- How are you feeling baby?

N- Good, actually feels quite a bit more energy then after having Owen.

W- I am going to go with the fact that it was a relaxing birth at home as the reason.

N- I think it did help. Where's Kim?

Will closes his eyes and takes a deep breath. Lowering his voice more.

W- Erin and Jay think she is having contractions.

N- Ok, how long and how close are they.

W- For about 3 hours, the last few have been 10 minutes apart. She says they are mild but I am going to check her and put the monitor on for a bit.

N- She is almost 37 weeks right.

W- Yeah 2 days off.

N- Ok help me up. I will go check her and you go deal with Adam.

W- But....

N- I just had two babies but we are fine. Our children are being cared for so let's help Kim.

W- Ok. You are amazing you know.

N- You just say that in the hope that I won't make you get your vasectomy.

W- I will do whatever you want darling. You have given me 3 beautiful children and this is your show.

N- We will talk about it later for now. Have fun with Adam.

He helps his wife up and hands her the medical bag he brought down. As she heads off Adam notices her and the bag. He looks around the room and turns back to Will.

R- Will? Where is Nat going? Where are Kim and Erin?

W- In the spare room.

R- Why?

W- Nat is going to check Kim out. We are concerned she is having contractions.

Adam starts to rush to the room his wife is in but is stopped by Will stepping in front of him and Jay grabbing his arm.

R- Guys, let me get to my wife

W- Not till you take a couple of breaths and calm down it isn't good for Kim if you are upset like this.

During the interaction, Hank and Olivia walk in. Hank centers on the conflict and heads to the 3 men.

R- Why didn't you do something sooner

W- I was focused on my wife who was giving birth. Kim didn't say anything we took action as soon as we discovered it.

Adam takes a deep breath.

R- I'm sorry, Will. That was uncalled for.

W- I understand remember wife just had two kids.

Will and Adam chuckle as Hank looks back at everyone and notices 2 babies being passed around.

H- Wait, two but did you know?

W- No but let us get Kim sorted first then we will explain.

H- Kim what's going on?

J- Go I will explain.

As Will and Adam head to the spare room. Will lays his hand on Adam's shoulder.

W- Are you sure your good? If this is it you need to stay calm?

R- How? She said she wanted to do this at home with you Nat and Erin. She wanted it relaxed like Nat's but how do you watch your wife go through that and stay calm.

W- You do what she asks and trust Nat and me to take care of her and the baby.

R- I trust you guys it is just hard.

W- I understand that completely. But trust us. If you need proof there are 2 babies in the living room I delivered and 2 babies at Upton's that Nat delivered. We got them.

R- Thanks, Will!

Will knocks on the door and they enter after Kim says come in.

R- Hey Babe.

K- I'm sorry Adam

R- Hey Hey it's ok. You both will be fine. Nat and Will are going to take care of you guys.

They look at Nat and Will on the edge of the room whispering amongst themselves.

K- Nat what is going on?
N- Your cervix is soft and Thinning Your not dilatated at all through. I am fairly certain it is Braxton Hicks contractions. Will was telling me that you guys decided to have the baby at home.

K- yeah just in like the last hour or so we were going to ask the 3 of you to be there.

N- We would love to. However a couple of things.

K- Shoot.

N- Since I just gave birth as well. Will may have to deliver you depending on when you do go into labor. Also, we need to call and get your records so we can see what to plan for.

K- Sounds fair enough.

W- As for right now you can come into the living room with us but you have to sit in a recliner with your feet up and the monitor on. Then in 2 hours we will check your cervix again and go from there.

R- So we just wait?

W- Yes I think her body just needs to rest from the last two weeks.

K- ok.

N- Will can you set up the monitor. Erin come help me in the kitchen, please.

Meanwhile in the Living Room

Jay gets everyone seated in the Living Room. Grabbing his niece first and hands her to Liv and then grabs his nephew handing him to his boss and father-in-law

H- So Jay what is going on? What happened?

J- I am going to leave it to Will and Nat to tell you what happened with the twins but as for Kim. I don't know much.

H- So what do you know?

J- After the twins were born. Kim, Erin, and I came downstairs. Erin and I noticed that Kim seemed to be having back pain. It seemed like back contractions, which is how Erin's labor started so we were concerned. After some argument, it seems Erin convinced her to let Will and Nat check her out. So that is what we are waiting on.

U- Nat is typically badass made not even hours after delivering twins she is helping care for Kim.

R- All women are badass especially mothers.

Adam walks over and kisses Liv on the head.

H- So how is Kim?

R- Fine she just needs to slow down. She will be out shortly with Will. Nat and Erin are in the Kitchen. May I hold her Liv?

O- Of course

R- Will requested that Nat and Kim get the recliners for obvious reasons.

U- Adam are you ok?

R- Yeah just worried.

U- She will be fine.

H- Especially since as of today she is on Maternity leave.

K- I am fine Sarg.

H- You just had a labor scare. You are done till after you recover from the birth.

W- it is for the best. Kim if he hadn't done it Nat and I would have, so be mad at all of us.

K- Fine.

Hanks walks over to Kim and hands her the Little boy Halstead and kissers her head.

H- Your job will be waiting for you. Your health and the baby's health is most important right now.
