Here's a Christmas fic to get everyone in the Christmas spirit! I hope you like it! I wrote this back in September, and I have been reviewing it almost everyday. So far, I have about 7 chapters written. Please leave some feedback! I don't care if it's good or bad, I would like to improve my writing. It's Christmas Eve, Joe is 2 and a half years old and Abby is 9 months pregnant with twins.Chapter 1 Abby is laying in bed, laughing to herself at Luka who is singing "Jingle Bells" in the shower. She looks at the clock, 7:08. She just remembered Luka has a shift today. She hears Joe slowly walk into the bedroom. "Mommy, is it Christmas yet?" Abby smiles at how cute Joe looks dressed in his spider man pj's and hugging his teddy bear. "Not yet sweetie. But today you can help mommy wrap daddy's presents." "Otay." Joe tries to jump up on the bed to sit with Abby but he needs Abby's help. Abby turns on the TV and starts flipping through the channels, she turns on "Blues Clues" for Joe. Luka came out of the shower and was surprised to see Joe sitting in bed with Abby. "Are you sure you don't want me to call off today?" Abby gives him a look. "Luka.......I'll be fine. Just go, if I start to have contractions I'll call you. I'm not due for another 10 days." Luka walks over and gives Abby a kiss. "Alright, I'll see you around 8." Luka says bye to Joe and walks out of the room. 2 hours later....."Mommy.....I'm hungry." Abby must have fallen asleep. 9:56. "Alright, how about we go downstairs and make some waffles?" "Otay." Joe starts to run out of the room towards the stairs. "Be careful of the stairs honey!" Abby sits up in bed. Her back hurts so much. She stands up, and a sharp pain hit her stomach. It's okay.....It's just braxton hicks, nothing to worry about. Once the pain had stopped, she went downstairs and started to make waffles. At the hospital........"Hey Luka!" Luka turns around to see Kerry coming towards him. "How is Abby holding up?" "She's doing okay." "That's good, hey listen.....if you need anytime off, just let me know, Abby needs you." Luka shakes his head. "Okay....thanks Kerry." "Anytime." Kerry says as she's walking away towards the elevators. Wow.....someones in a good mood today.Back at the apartment......Abby was laying on the couch. She was having stomach pains ever since Luka left. I'm fine......it's just braxton hicks Abby...... The phone rang. She quickly got up and answered it. "Hey Luka..... yeah everything's fine...... Okay.....I'll see you at 8..... Love you too, bye." She hung up the phone and suddenly felt dizzy. She then screamed out in pain. "AAAHHHHH!" oh god....no no no no no this is not happening. Joe's crying......get the phone....call Luka....everythings going to be fine.......no Abby....don't pass out, no.. you can't.At the hospital again........"Merry Christmas everybody!" Luka screams as he is signing off on his last chart and getting ready to leave. "Merry Christmas Luka." Pratt walks up behind Luka and hands him a teddy bear with a pink bow wrapped around its neck and another bear with the word "mom" on it in blue and pink letters. "Here's a little something for Abby and the new babies." Luka smiles. "Thanks Pratt." "Anytime." Luka walks outside and stops. Oh great.....it couldn't have waited until I got home to start snowing. Luka walks up the stairs to his apartment and struggles to find his key. Why are the lights off? Maybe she's taking a nap.........He walks into the apartment and turns on the light. "Abby?" He can hear Joe upstairs crying. Luka walks into the kitchen. "Abby?" He turns on the light slowly. "Abby!" Let me know how you like it!

I love it, which does not happen often when reading fanfiction. I hope she does not have a life and death thing because that gets too repetative. Is she having twin boys or girls? I can't wait to read the next chapter.

Don't worry, she's going to be just fine, and you will find out in the next couple chapters.
Thanks everyone! I'm glad you like it! Here's chapter 2!
This one might not be as good as the last one, but thats just my opinion. But the 3rd will be good! I promise! Chapter 2 "Abby....come on baby open your eyes." Theres a knock on the door, which Luka left unlocked. He is surprised to see Sam along with the paramedics. "What happened?.....oh god....Abby........." Sam stars at Abby in shock. "How long has she been unconscious?" "I'm not sure, I found her like this when I got home....." Sam looks at Luka, "Don't worry, she'll be fine." She is unsure of herself though. The paramedics already had Abby downstairs. "Why don't I go along with you in your car to the hospital with Joe." "Okay." Luka and Sam walk into Joe's room. Sam carried Joe down while Luka carried Abby's things that she packed a few weeks ago. Luka is practically running to the car. "Luka be careful your gonna fall!" Too late. Luka was flat on his back on the icy cold ground. He opened his eyes to see Sam starring down at him, laughing. "Are you okay?" He slowly gets up trying not to slip again. "Yeah, I'm fine, lets go." The ambulance pulls into the ambulance bay at county. Neela, Morris, and Haleh and waiting. The paramedics opened the doors and pulled Abby out. "39 year old female 9 months pregnant found collapsed in her kitchen." Neela looks at Abby. "Oh god it's Abby." "Wow....the babies are giving her a hard time already." Haleh looked at Morris. "Oh shut up Morris." He looked at Haleh. "Right. Lets get her into trauma 1." Luka and Sam come rushing into the ER with Joe. "Where's Abby?" Luka asks Frank as he is trying to catch his breath. "Ummm.....trauma 1." Luka takes off running down the hall. "Hey Frank could you watch Joe for awhile? I'm going to go check on Abby." Sam says as she is putting Joe down on a chair by Frank. "Sure." "Okay, thanks Frank." Sam follows Luka into trauma 1. "Hey Joe, you like donuts?" Joe gives Frank a weird look and takes a piece of the donut from Frank. When Luka and Sam walk into the trauma room, Abby is just waking up. Luka grabs a stool and sits next to Abby. "Hey....you gave us a scare." Luka says as he takes Abby's hand. "I'm sorry Luka...I.....my belly hurt like hell." Haleh comes in the trauma room with the ultrasound machine followed by Dr. Coburn. "Hey Abby, I wasn't expecting to see you until after the holidays." Dr. Coburn says to Abby as she is walking up to her. "Well apparently the babies wanted to see you for Christmas." Dr. Coburn laughs at Abby's sarcasm as she is checks Abby. "You were definitely having contractions. Your 4 centimeters dilated." "Well, I guess it's finally time." Abby says to Luka. "So.....would you two rather wait a few hours or would you like to know the sex of them now? Dr. Coburn says as she puts the gel on Abby's belly. Abby and Luka exchange glances. "It's only a few hours Abby....." "Umm....alright....we'll find out now." Abby says nervously. "Okay well baby A is a girl and baby B is......I'm pretty sure it's a boy but it's hard to tell." Luka smiles at Abby as she turns and kisses him. "Well it looks like Joe will have both a brother and a sister. Dr. Coburn smiles for a minute and then realizes something. Where is Joe anyway?" Dr. Corburn asks. Luka looks at Abby, then at Dr. Coburn, knowing that Abby is going to flip knowing that her son is stuffing a bunch of junk food in his mouth. "Oh well Sam and I came in and we left him with Frank." "Luka! You left him with Frank?!?! Do you know how many donuts that kid has probably eaten by now??" Abby's face begins to turn red with anger. "Well, I wanted to make sure you were okay" Luka is now laughing.....Abby was right....Joe has probably eaten at least 3 donuts by now the way Frank feeds him. "Okay well why don't we get you up to OB and get settled." Dr. Coburn says while writing one more thing on Abby's chart. "I'll see you upstairs Abby." Abby smiles. Sam, Neela, and Haleh came back into the room and got ready to move Abby upstairs. As Abby is being taken to the elevator, Luka kisses her hand and says, "I'm just going to go check on Joe and see how he's doing with Frank." Luka begins to walk away. "Yeah you do that." Abby says.

Thanks!! Here's the next chapter!! It's still Christmas Eve here, so I thought this was the right time to post this chapter. Hope you like it! WARNING: There is some curse words in here. Only about 2. But just a warning. I also have no experience in childbirth, so if theres anything wrong here, Sorry! Chapter 3 Abby is now upstairs in OB thinking, Is it gonna be two girls, or one boy and one girl? **Flashback**"Luka!! He's 2 and a half months premature! Oh God.....I can't believe I let this happen." "Abby....It's not your fault, it's not my fault, it's not anyones fault. It's being in the wrong place at the wrong time." Abby was pacing around the NICU about ready to have a nervous breakdown. She had Joe 2 weeks ago, he weighed 3 pounds, 11 ounces. He was still in the NICU, holding on for his life. "Abby.....just calm down for 5 minutes." "LUKA! How can I calm down when my two week old son is lying in an incubator with all kinds of monitors and tubes attached to him and not knowing whether he's going to make it out of here or not??!!" **Back to reality**It's different this time Abby....She thought to herself. I have two healthy babies inside of me. I have nothing to worry about. I don't care if the other one is a boy or girl, I'll love it no matter what. "I love you guys." Abby whispered. "Talking to yourself again?" Luka said as he walked in the room holding a teddy bear. "I thought you might like this. I was down in the gift shop looking for something for you and thought that it was kinda cute." Abby grinned. "Hey I could have gotten you a panda?" "Haha very funny Luka but no thanks. AAAHHHH OH JESUS!!" Abby leaned over in pain. "What, what is it? A contraction?" Luka gave Abby a worried look. "Ahh...no Luka I just felt like....oh sh*t screaming my f**king lungs for no reason." She said trying to be sarcastic as she was trying to get through a contraction. Abby was going at it like that for nearly 2 hours, when Dr. Coburn finally came in. "Hey Abby I'm so sorry it took me awhile." Abby looked at Dr. Coburn like she was nuts. She just wanted to be holding her babies in her arms right then. "Do you think your ready to start pushing yet?" "God if I'm not just shoot me." "Okay well your 10 centimeters dilated. So on your next contraction, I want you to push as hard as you can....alright?" Abby was tired. She knew that she could do it, but she kept thinking that she couldn't. She was already exhausted and she hasn't even pushed one baby out yet. The contraction hit, and it was time. "Alright Abby push!!" "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH OH GOD KILL ME!!!!" A few minutes later......"Come on Abby one more push and it'll be out." Abby threw herself back into the pillows. "No, I can't do it. Oh god I'm gonna die!" "Abby....your not gonna die." Luka said as calmly as possible. "SHUT UP LUKA!!! YOUR NOT THE ONE WHO'S GIVING BIRTH HERE!!" "Just one more Abby, come, on, you can do this." Everything in the room got quiet except for the beeping monitors. Dr. Coburn was the first one to speak. "So on the next contraction you think you will be ready?" Abby just calmly shook her head. "Okay then here we go, come on Abby push as hard as you can!!" "AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!" "Okay Abby, you can stop now. Luka, would you like to come here and cut the cord?" Luka walks over and cuts the cord on his baby girl. Oh Luka stop the crying he thought to himself. No, go ahead cry. This is the best day of your life. Be happy. "Abby, we have a girl!" Abby looks over to see Luka standing next to her holding a beautiful baby girl. But it was not just any little girl, it was her baby girl. "Did you think of any names yet?" Luka looks at her with a confused look. "No, well, I thought of some, but I didn't pick any favorites. Did you find any?" Luka gave Abby their baby. She was so beautiful. She had Luka's nose and Abby's eyes. "A couple. Wow...Luka....shes just.....so beautiful." "Well get used to holding another because your about ready to push the next one out." Dr. Coburn said to Abby. "Oh my god!" "Abby..what's wrong?" Luka had fear in his voice. He thought something was seriously wrong with her. "It's 11:45!! and oh god.... contraction!!" "Just breathe through it." Luka grabbed Abby's hand. They were about ready to do it again. "Alright Abby on the next one your gonna push okay?" Dr. Coburn said. She knew Abby was tired, but she had to help her get through this. She needed to help Abby have 2 healthy babies after what she went through with Joe. "Like you were saying..." Luka said, wanting Abby to finish what she was saying about it being 11:45. "Well, what if this next one is born on Christmas, they will have 2 different birthdays. I want them to have the same one. Ahhh....jesus!!!!!!!!!!! This hurts like hell!!" 11:58 p.m. Christmas eve."Okay Abby one more push and your done!! Come on you can do this!!" Dr. Coburn was trying to encourage Abby as much as she could. Abby looked at the clock. The big hand turned to 11:59. Crap. She could do this. She had to do this. When the contraction came a few seconds later, she pushed with all her might. She completely blacked everything out. All she was focusing on was pushing this baby out of her body. When she finally heard the words, stop pushing, she was relieved. "Well, I was wrong, it looks like you have two beautiful baby girls." Luka cut the cord on his second baby girl. He heard the clock tick, and so did Abby. He handed Abby the second girl and he picked the first one up from the incubator. He sat in a chair next to Abby's bed and smiled at her. She smiled back. "Merry Christmas, Abby." "Merry Christmas, Luka." "Merry Christmas girls" Abby and Luka said at the same time before sharing a kiss. MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!!!!

Thanks guys! Heres the next chapter!!
BTW....MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! I hope Santa was good to everyone! Chapter 4 "Luka, we need names." "Okay...lets see, how about you name one and I'll name the other." "Okay" Abby stared at the baby she was holding. What did she look like? A Jessica? Ashley? Emily? No, too common. Luka looked at his other baby girl that he was holding. Hmm....Daniella? Gabriella? Isabella? Yes! Thats it! "Isabella." Luka said to Abby. "Isabella Natalie Kovac." "Oh wow Luka, I love it, it's so beautiful. But, why Natalie? I mean, I love it, but why?" "Natalie means child born at Christmas. I figured it fit. Here we are, in a hospital, 12:15 a.m. Christmas morning." A smile spreads across Luka's face. Abby loved all this. If only she could just come up with a name as creative as Luka did. She went back to thinking. "What about Daniella? Daniella Ashley Kovac." Luka looked at Abby and smiled. "I love it." About an hour later.... Daniella started to cry. "She's hungry." Luka said and looked at Abby. "Do you want me to go get the nurse?" Abby looked at Luka and rolled her eyes. "Luka...don't be stupid, it's not like I haven't done this before." Then it hit her. "Oh my god!! Luka! Where's Joe?!?" Luka's eyes got really big. He forgot that he left Joe with Frank. He looked at the clock. 1:13. Oh man I hope the ER isn't too busy. Frank's going to be pissed. Luka put Isabella back into the incubator. "I'll be right back." Abby looked up at Luka. "Are you going to get Joe?" Luka chuckled. "I think he should meet his two new little sisters, and besides, I don't want him to start throwing up later on because of all the donuts Frank is feeding him." Abby laughed and went back to feeding Daniella. As she was feeding Daniella, she thought about some things. 3 years ago right now I was having trouble sleeping, I just told Luka I was pregnant, and I had to deal with the choice, should I keep it, or chicken out and get another abortion? Now, there she was, in a hospital room, feeding one of her twins. Over the past 3 years, she had a son, got married to the perfect husband, and now has 2 twin girls. What more could she want? Sure she had trouble with her alcohol addiction last year, but it's all better. She's been sober for almost a year now. She knows that she's not the perfect wife or mother, but she's happy, and her kids and husband love her, thats all that matters. Downstairs in the ER....."KOVAC!" Luka looks behind him to see Kerry running up to him. "Hey, I just heard, congratulations!" "Thanks Kerry." "Sorry Luka, have to get back to work, we just had a major trauma come in, we're still getting some of the victims. Damn bastard shooting all these people is still out there too." With that said, Kerry runs back into trauma one. Luka walks over to the admit desk to see Frank, but no Joe. "Frank, wheres Joe?" Luka says in a somewhat calm voice. "Poor kid, fell asleep right here with a donut jammed into his mouth, he's passed out in the lounge." Luka heads off to the lounge. "Thanks Frank." Luka walks into the lounge to see Morris at his locker, and Joe sound asleep on the sofa. Luka walks quietly over to Joe. "Hey Joe, bud, come on, wake up. We're going to go upstairs to see mommy and your two new baby sisters." Joe wakes up slowly, and rubs his eyes. "I tought I wuz gonna have a broder too." Luka looks at Joe and smiles. "Yeah, but, I guess we're still the only two men in the house." Luka said sarcastically. "Otay, cwan we go tee mommy now?" "Sure." Luka picks up Joe, who is still half asleep, and carries him out of the lounge. As soon as he walks out of the lounge, he see's a gurney with a body on it. Idiots, Kerry's supposed to be in charge here, and theres people leaving dead bodies on gurneys in the hallways uncovered? Luka quickly turns Joe's head the other way, so he doesn't see the body, thats the last thing he would want his two and a half year old soon seeing at 1:30 in the morning. Abby's upstairs sleeping. They took the girls to the NICU, just for tonight, then tomorrow they both can go home with Abby and Luka. Luka walks upstairs to see Abby, but he see's that she's half asleep, and he can't take Joe into the NICU, so he decides to do something to surprise Abby. "Joe, how would you like to come home with me for a bit and help me finish setting up Daniella and Isabella's room?" Joe looks at him confused. "Ummm....otay." With that being said, they run back down the stairs to the ER, and out the doors to where his car is parked. He forgot it was snowing, there had to be at least 3 inches on the ground now. Luckily, his car was 4 wheel drive.

Thanks! Here's the last chapter for today.Chapter 5 When Luka and Joe got back to the apartment, he realized he left the door unlocked. Idiot. He put Joe down, and began getting stuff out of boxes. For the next 2 hours, Luka and Joe were decorating the bedroom for the twins. By 4:00, they were both exhausted, especially Joe. "Daddy, why mommy in da hopital?" Luka picked Joe up and put him on the couch. They were about ready to make a Merry Christmas/welcome home banner for Abby, Isabella, and Daniella. "Because mommy just had two babies." "But why dhe dtill dere? Does dhe have a boo boo?" Luka didn't know how to explain all this to his two year old son, so he just replied with, "Yes, mommy has a boo boo." Joe hugged his stuffed frog closer to him. "Dwill it get better soon?" Luka laughed and picked up his son and set him on his lap. "Don't worry Joe, mommy will be home tomorrow with Isabella and Daniella." At 7:30, Luka and Joe were all ready to go back to the hospital and pick up Abby, Isabella, and Daniella. He put Joe down for a nap around 4:30, just so he could get some sleep before everything happened today. Everything was ready. The car seats were in the car, the cribs were ready, all the clothes were in the drawers, and the banner that Luka and Joe made was hung up right in the living room. Luka walked into Joe's room and woke him up. "Hey Joe, it's time to go see mommy!" Joe rubbed his eyes and turned over. "I twired." Luka began to pick him up. "I know, but once the day gets going, you gonna love it! And besides, we have a lot of cool Christmas presents for you!" All of a sudden, Joe perked up. "Really?!?" "Yup! and the sooner we leave, the sooner we can get mommy, and the sooner we can come home and open them!" Luka put Joe down, and he ran to the door, waving his stuffed frog all over the place. Luka grabbed his keys, and ran after him. Abby was awake now, and was ready to leave the hospital. She loved her job, but when it came to being a patient in a hospital, it was hell for her. They wanted the twins to be signed out from the NICU, so Abby was now just sitting in her hospital room, gathering up her things. She dropped her wallet, and all her photos flew out of it. She started picking them up and going through them. There was one of her and Luka at their wedding, and one of her, Luka, and Joe at their wedding. Then there was the one that they took when Joe was first born. He was so tiny. She couldn't believe how big he has gotten. She found another one of her, Eric, John, and Eric's girlfriend. Ugh god she couldn't remember her name, Whats her name Abby?? Ugh god...your loosing it. The last one she picked up was one of her and Neela at their graduation. She was lost in the moment smiling at all the pictures when she didn't even realize Luka and Joe were standing right at the doorway. "Mommy!!" Joe ran over, still holding onto his frog, and gave Abby a big hug. "Is your boo boo all bwetter now?" Abby smiled at Joe, and looked over at Luka. Luka gave her the look, and she realized that Luka just told him that. "Yes sweetie, mommy's all better." Abby gathered up the rest of her photos, and put them back into her wallet. 2 hours later....Luka pulled up in front of the house. The snow has stopped, thank god. Now Abby and Luka were ready to bring the girls into the house. They were so thrilled about this. First, Joe opened his presents. He got so much stuff that he wanted. Later on he fell asleep with his big stuffed Spongebob. Abby walked into Joe's room where he was passed out. Poor baby.....She put the blanket over Joe and let him rest. Surprisingly, the girls were both sound asleep. If only it would be like this for awhile. This is the last chapter that I'm going to post about Daniella and Isabella being babies and Joe being that young. I really don't know what else to write, so I'm going to fast-forward the story about 12 years. Trust me though, your going to like it! Joe's attitude changes a lot, and Abby becomes a really great mom. Possibly another baby too?

I like this series but wasn't Luka's dead wife called Daniella? I find it odd that Abby would even consider this name for her child, especially since Luka was plagued with her and the kids for years.
