Special Delivery

[tony_dinozzo]

Tony was typing up his letter for maternity leave, sitting at his desk. He was due within the next two to three weeks and Ducky had decided it would be best for him to go ahead to start his leave now in case anything came up. So, while Jethro and the team were out investigating leads on a new case, Tony was caught at his desk. He had just finished the letter and was printing it out when a jolting pain tore through his abdomen and back. It took him a few moments to catch his breath before he picked up the phone and dialed down to the morgue.

"Jimmy... get Ducky... I think this baby is gonna be early..."

Two minutes later, Ducky was entering the bullpen when another pain tore through Tony, leaving him gasping for air. Ducky walked over with Jimmy and the two of them slowly helped him to his feet.

"I've already called Jethro, Anthony, and he will be meeting us at the hospital. Dr. Pitt will be there as well to keep an eye on your pulmonary function as we get ready to deliver this little one of yours..."

Half an hour later they were at the hospital, Tony in a private room hooked up to a couple of machines and iv's, waiting for Jethro to get there.

"Yes, I realize that, Jethro, however Anthony wanted you to watch over the children and if I had told you that he was experiencing some trouble you would have wanted to stay with him and it would have only agitated him more." The nurses got Tony settled into his own bed and left with the gurney. Ducky moved around the bed, setting up the monitors and such before administering a drug that would wake Tony at least a little more. Tony's eyes opened and he rubbed at them a moment before looking over at Jethro and smiling.

"Hey," he said softly. "Can I hold my children now?"

Jethro realized that but he hadn't wanted to be away from his boy at that time. Not when Tony needed him and it wasn't like their children hadn't been taken care of. Nor was it like they wouldn't of been.

So he stays quiet giving a smile when he hears Tony's voice. It was a relief to hear. "Of course, my boy." Leaning over he takes the children and places one in each of his boy's arms.

Tony smiles softly as he looks down at his children, tears already in his eyes.

"Oh gods... they are so beautiful... and so small..."

"Wait until we get to take them home," he says with a smile. Those little ones would grow up to love their mother endlessly. That was something that the old Marine would make sure of.

Tony looked up and smiled before turning to Ducky. "When will that be? When can we take them home?"

"In two days, dear boy, so long as they, and you, are doing well enough to go home."
