Well guys, updates are about to become even more sparse than they already are beginning today and lasting for about a month. My laptop DIED on me, so I don't have internet access all that often for a while. This is really bad guys, and I'm very upset. I'll let you know what happens.

Sorry for taking so long...I got swamped with Finals, which sucked big time. And also, sorry that the beginning of this seems kinda rushed, but the fic needed to move along.
Abby’s coffee date with Albright could easily be described as uneventful. Neither woman actually drank anything, as it was discovered that Albright’s morning sickness was particularly triggered by the aroma of coffee. Maggie up and left Chicago one day, much to the delight and chagrin of Abby, and she and Luka were working through the blow dealt to them by the neurologist. A month later, Abby found herself relaxing alone on the couch. Luka wasn’t due to come home for another few hours, and she was enjoying the peace and quiet. As Abby rose to go to the bathroom for what seemed like the millionth time that day, she felt a dull ache spanning across her lower abdomen. “Damn Braxton-Hicks,” she muttered as she waddled to the powder room. Abby was watching TV half an hour later when her entire abdomen seemed to tighten. Wincing, she massaged her stomach until the feeling passed. Glancing at the clock, Abby noted it was 3:12. At 3:20, Abby knew that Braxton-Hicks were a thing of the past. One arm around her stomach, Abby made her way over to the phone to call Luka. “Jerry, ahhh, it’s Abby. Can I talk to Luka, please?” Abby asked, gritting her teeth. “He’s with a patient; can I take a message?” the desk clerk replied amiably. “Uhhh, no, I really need to talk to him, Jer. Like, urgently,” Abby was starting to get slightly annoyed. Jerry picked up on it immediately and decided not to stress out Abby any more than she already was. “Sure, I’ll get him. Hold on…” Abby waited until she heard Luka’s voice on the other end of the line. “Luka,” Abby said as what could only be another contraction gripped her abdomen, “it’s time.”

I know it's short, but I think it's worth it!
“What?!” Luka yelped, attracting the attention of the entire ER. “It’s time?!” “Hey everybody,” Chuny yelled, “Luka’s got Abby on the phone. It’s time!” The hubbub amongst the ER staff was enormous. “Ten bucks says she gives into the epidural,” Pratt called, referencing Abby’s decision to go through natural childbirth. “Nah, $40 says she makes it, unless she has to have a C-section,” Haleh countered. “Just a sec Abby,” Luka said as he lowered the receiver to his chest. “ALL RIGHT, EVERYONE! This is the most important day of my and Abby’s lives, and we do NOT need you taking bets on it! At least not when I can hear you!” “Sorry,” everyone mumbled, but they still stood crowded around Luka. Luka groaned and returned to the conversation he was having with Abby. “How long have you been having contractions?” “Uhh, all day I guess. But I though they were Braxton-Hicks!” Abby winced as she received a rib-shot from one of the babies. “Oooh…” “Another contraction?!” Luka asked, bewildered. “No, no,” Abby explained. “Rib-shot. Augh… Just hurry, please.” “I’ll be there in 20 minutes. I love you,” Luka said as he hung up the phone. “Jerry, call up to Weaver and tell her I’m leaving. Chuny, call OB and get Coburn on standby. This is it, people!” He ran into the lounge, grabbed his keys, and ran out of the ER into the ambulance bay. “Well,” Neela said, “let the games begin!”

Abby, this one's for you.
Abby was sitting on the couch, breathing through another contraction when Luka burst in the front door. “Come on! Let’s go,” he said in a rush. “Can we wait, oooh, until I’m through this contraction please?” Abby grimaced. “Right, sure,” Luka said, almost impatiently. “Watch your tone, mister. You are NOT the one whose own body has turned against her!” Abby glared at her husband, daring him to say anything. “Sorry, sorry…” Luka mumbled. “Luka, just shut up! Oh, thank God, it’s over,” Abby breathed as she tried to stand. Clutching her stomach, she motioned for Luka to grab her bags. “Do you have the car seats?” “What? Car seats?” “If we’re ever bringing them home, then you need to bring the damn car seats! You get them and put them in the back seat. I’ll be in the car.” Abby bit her lip and slowly made her way out to the car, which Luka had left running. Silently, she thanked divine intervention for not having the car stolen. Opening the door, Abby eased into the passenger side just as Luka ran out with the car seats. “Okay, are you ready?” he asked as he placed them in the backseat. “It’s a little late to ask that, don’t you think,” Abby snapped. “Would you just shut up and drive?” Luka knew better than to comment on Abby’s attitude, so he simply shifted into reverse and backed out onto the street. Well, this is it, he thought to himself.
