Everything's fine. Baby 27

A note from the author. This post will have some inappropriate language so if you're not into that take consideration before reading. Now for the post.
                                                                ~Bridget's POV~
 My eyes gently opened. I blinked all around the room. My head felt nine thousand pounds heavier and my arms were sore. I took a look at them, wires and tubes and all sorts of other objects were conected to me. 'What the hell happened?' I thought to myself. I looked around the room better this time.
 And there she was. Of course she was here, she was always there when I needed someone. Caitlin lay on the couch softly breathing, she wasn't snoring, she never had been one to snore. Her eyes opened quickly, they were almost completely bloodshot. 'What the hell?' I thought again. She's never looked worse. She came to a sitting position. "You're up." She said with a soft smile.
 "Yeah, why?" I asked trying to act cooly. "Well let's see here, you're sicker than a dog, and you passed out at the cafe." Cait said almost whispering. I could feel the hurt tone in her voice. What had I done. "I have no clue what you're talking about." I said back defensively.
 Caitlin looked at the floor. "Just, forget about it." She said lightly. I couldn't forget about it. "Jasper, he uuhm........ He cheated on me." I whispered out of the blue. "Your freaking lover from Egypt Bridget. C'mon girl. The dude lives thousands of miles away, you shouldn't be worrying about this." She said looking at me in the eye. "I'm telling you this because it hurt me Caitlin!" I almost yelled. "Yeah and you're not hurting yourself or anything." She grumbled under her breath but I could still hear it.
 "I didn't hurt myself and it's just the stomach flu!" I said loudly. "Yeah that's why you had to get an MRI and scare the living shit out of me." Caitlin said. "You've never cussed a day in your life!" I said shocked. "Why do you change the subject all the time Bridget! There is something wrong with you! And yeah maybe I've held back on my cussing but as you see there are absolutely NO children in this room and I feel comfortable with you! So if I want to say a cuss word I CAN say a cuss word!" Caitlin said. Her eyes suddenly glossened with tears. "I'm sorry... I'm so so sorry." She whispered taking her hands to her face.
 "Cait," I said then stopped. I let her finish crying. "Bridge, it's just, I can't lose you..... Right now you're the only one I've got left besides my kids, my mom won't call me back." She whispered. I never thought about that. With Caitlin I always thought that after a bad thing happened it was smiles and hugs and sunshine not worrying when the next one was going to leave her life. I was going to say something but her phone rang. "I have to take this....." She said getting up. "Go ahead..." I said quietly.
"Hi sweethart. Yeah she's okay. No I am fine. Claire, well tell Bridget to take the phone then! Ugh, hi Hope. Yeah. Okay if you really want to you can. She's fine. Yeah well in the long run she will be. Hope you guys can age Sam up too. Just bring him to the hospital, all of you when your aged up. I want- no I need to see you guys. Alright be careful. Love you too. Bu-bye." Caitlin finished clicking her phone off.
 "Well anyway..." I said wanting to continue my convo about Jasper. "We had been cyber dating. We video chatted every day and everything. My  other friend that lives in Egypt caught him smooching up another girl. She showed me a pic and everything. I completely fell apart. Anyway long story short, Bridgets on the market again." I said adding a small smile at the end. Cait didn't seem so impressed.
 "You didn't tell me this because?!?!" She asked. "Well, you were busy with your man, and worrying about your next kid and stuff." I said.
 Her sad face turned into an all time frown. She didn't look at me. "You're really moody. What's wrong?" I asked.  Cait's face flushed with anger.
 Caitlins arms shot up in the air. "Lets see, my fiance had to go back to war, my own mother HATES me with a living passion, and now my best friend just shook hands with death! You practically were there! If I hadn't given you CPR You would be laying in a coffin right now!" She screamed. She looked down at the ground. "I'm not saying my life sucks, but right now my stitches are about to burst and the store ran out of thread to repair me." She whispered. "You saved my life?" I asked shocked.
"Well, yeah." She whispered. "Your mouth touched my mouth. And your breath brought me back?" I asked for more detail. "Yes... When you passed out you stopped breathing. I couldn't get a pulse out of you so I did what I thought was neccesary, I tried to revive you. Suddenly your heart started to beat and the EMT's burst through the door. Bridge if I didn't do that, I would be burying you instead... Like I had to with Scarlet, Matt's mom, and my father." She said quietly. I touched my lips and took a deep breath in. "Thank you so much." I whispered. "That's what friends are for." Caitlin whispered. "But, I will never touch your lips again.." She added with a light smile that disappeared before I could officially see it.
 All of a sudden 4 young adults and a toddler burst through the door. Caitlin jumped to her feet. "Be quiet!" She shushed. She scooped up the little toddler. I suppose these are her children. I smiled. "I'm sorry." She mouthed as her daughters yelled.
 I just laughed and smiled. Caitlin made them all be quiet one of her many talents. Then one of them came over to my bed. "I'm Bridget." She told me smiling. I smiled back. "Nice to meet you Bridget." I said and laughed.
 Bridget turned away from me. She was a little bit shy. Then one of her sisters waved at her to come over to where she was. Bridget obeyed and walked away. Well well well. Caitlin named a kid after me. That felt really good.
 Bridget was a beaut. She was really nice too.
 This I later learned is Hope. She was really quiet and pretty.
 Ruby, she didn't say much but I knew she was still quiet since Scarlet passed.
 And then that I guess is Claire. I really liked her hair.
 Caitlin hugged them all goodbye and sent them on their ways. "I can go too." She said lifting her little one higher up on her hip. "No, you're staying with me until I leave this place." I said with a smile. "We can even get a crib for...." I said. She instantly responded. "Samuel. The Grims son." I was somewhat shocked but I guess a lot of people go through you in a challenge.
 "Okay.." She whispered. She sat down with Sam. I rolled over on my side to take a nap. She paced around the room for a bit until the nurse came with a crib.
 I wasn't sleeping. I couldn't. My head was pounding and I was still sore. I heard Caitlin set Sam in the crib. "Take a nap." She whispered. She closed the door and shut the lights off. She walked back over to the crib. "See its night night time." She whispered. Then she walked over to the little couch.
I rolled over and watched her head hit the cushion. She was out within seconds. I felt bad, she never really signed up for this, which proved to me that she was a best friend. I sat up in my bed thinking about what was wrong with me. I closed my eyes and tried to remember the cafe scene. At first I couldn't see anythin but then it blurred into my mind. I had yelled at Caitlin calling her my mother and telling her to leave me alone. I didn't mean that though. Then a scene in the ambulance entered my mind.
                                                                  ~Flashback~
 I was there laying on a stretcher. There was the soft sound of the sirens although they were probably blaring. Caitlin was sitting on the bench near me. She kept whispering something but I didn't hear anything. All I heard was the beeps of the moniter and the doctor screaming technical words at someone else. Caitlin just stared straight at my body.
 In my flashback I watched as my moniter flatlined and the EMT revived me. He took the two electrically charged palets and thrust them on my chest. He did this three times until the moniter buzzed to life. I started to breathe once again. I watched Caitins eyes bug out of her head. "Oh my god! BRIDGET!" She almost screamed. The doctor turned to her.
 "You must stay somewhat quiet maam or I will have to kick you out of the ambulance." The doctor told her. She bowed her head and shut up. Then she looked straight at me. I couldn't believe I could see this all even though I knew my body was laying on that bed... She started to talk. "Bridget I just want to let you know That you're my best friend. Okay. And I didn't mean anything I said that would anger you." She whispered.
"It's kind of funny." She said with a smile. "I always thought I would be the one to have medical issues." She said. I kind of knew she wasn't making sense. And that she knew I couldn't hear her. But now I could and it was kind of Akward..
"I just hope you end up fine in the long run..." She whispered. Then before my eyes the flashback blurred into reality. Caitlin was still asleep on the couch and a nurse was taking my vitals. I didn't say a word. I let the nurse finish up and she left the room. I stared at Caitlin. then I looked at my hands for some odd reason. I stared at my wrist and counted the silver scars. Exactly three were there. Had I ever told Caitlin about them? No. Would I ever? Probably not. Then Cait startled to a wake and screamed out Matt's name. I wondered what else was going on in that little head of hers...
 I just stared at her. "What?" She asked. "You kind of screamed out a name. You know a certain someones name." I told her. "It was just a nightmare......" She said. "Yeah, JUST a nightmare. What is going on with your little brain little miss Murray?" I asked with a grin. "Better question. What's up with yours?" She said frustrated. "Ouch, touche." I said with a giggle.
 "It's not a laughing matter Bridge." She said turning her head away. I dropped the subject. The next week or so it was pretty much the same way, although there were more smiles as the bags under my eyes went away and the headaches dulled down. My doctor told me I could leave now. Caitlin seemed very relieved.
 Then I got out of my bed. The most movement I've made all week.
As I got up from my bed Cait started to ask questions. "You can come stay with me for a while. Or uhm do you want to? Or I could check up on you if you want?" She asked rambling. "I'm a big girl Caitlin. Now go home. You have babies to have."I told her. "You people have to stop using my children as an excuse for me!" She said laughing. I think she had forgiven me but just barely. She picked up Sam out of the crib and hefted him on her hip. I went to my little private bathroom to get dressed.
 Well, I got dressed in a dress. Not my first choice but my head WAS a little fuzzy. I would have to come back to the hospital every week for checkups since they didn't know what was wrong with me. "Ohh! A dress!" Caitlin said smiling. "Yeah yeah yeah. Now lets get out of this place!" I said with a smile. We loaded up into the elevator and hit the down button.
 Outside of the hospital there was a young man, couldn't of been over 30. Our eyes met and my heart fluttered. He smiled a great big smile. So I approached him.
 "Hi, I'm Bridget." I said shyly. "Uhm, I'm,,, Uh, Dr. Spencer Reid. You don't have to call me Doctor. Just Spencer is fine." He said rambling. "Spencer." I said out loud. "I like that." I said smiling. "I like Bridget too." He said. We started chatting each other up.
 "Well. I work for the BAU as a profiler. I see a lot of horrible stuff." He said. "Wow." Is all I could say back. We talked for like over an hour.
 Spencer and I had really hit it off. He said he usually rambles with people over technical stuff but with me he felt completely comfortable. We talked a bit more and then I realized Caitlin was right there. "Well, I see he will take care of you.... I'm uh, just gunna go. Call me later Bridget!" She said then walked off with Sam.
Spencer said he would escort me to my house. He even gave me his number. Caitlin left and so he loaded me up in his car. Sounds creepy but it wasn't. Time to start over. With a new someone.
~Caitlins POV~
 I made it home by the time it was dark. I was so happy that I could sleep in my own bed. Although there would be an empty, cold space there with nobody to fill it.
 I took Samuel up to the nursery and set him in his crib. I kissed his forehead and wished him a good night. Then I clicked on the little nightlight and shut off the lights and walked out of the room and up the steps to my room.
 I changed into my pajamas and got prepared for bed. I went to my side first, then I went over to Matt's side of the bed. I smelled the pillow, it still had his scent in it. Then I pulled back the covers and got comfy. I switched off the light and fell right into a deep heavenly sleep.
 In the morning I got Sam out of his crib, there and then I realized it was just him and me. Really? Well in that case I could have some fun with him and not have to worry about other children. I could find a father along the way.
Our morning started with nice cold cereal. Sam wasn't impressed with Frosted Flakes so I got him some Fruit Loops. He lapped up all of the cereal and milk in the bowl.
Then we went on a little stroll around town. samuel was looking around at everything excitedly. He didn't exactly know how to talk yet but he would stutter and try to sound things out. "Ma!" He said excitedly pointing at a shrub. "That's great Sam! What else can you see?" I said with a grin. This would definitely tucker him out.
"What's that?" I asked him passing by a tree. "Tw-e?" He said timidly. "Tree. you did good!" I said with a clap. "Tweeeeee!" He screamed excitedly. I laughed. I wish I could have this one on one time with all of my children.
Then we returned home. Samuel had stopped pointing at things and was slowly snoozing off. I decided I would quickly teach him how to walk and talk and then it would be bedtime. Wow this day went by quickly. Tomorrow I would let him finish up skills then we'd do something fun. Then I would HAVE to find a new daddy.
Sam was up and toddling around in no time. Once I helped him up the first time he had no problems. Looks like I have another speed demon on my hands.
Sam started talking up a storm when I taught him more words. "Do you like talking with mommy Sam?" I asked hoping he would catch on, which he did. "Sam, like talking with his mommy!" He said with a small smile. Well good. Looks like I have a nice walker/talker on my hands.
 After teaching Sam his skills I thought I would try and call my mother again. I decided to play dirty and call her by and unidentified number. I was discouraged when the phone kept ringing and ringing. I was just about to hang up when I heard her voice come up on the line. "Hello, this is Cecilia. May I ask who's calling." Her voice rang. She sounded really...... Old? Sick?
 A smile spread across my face. "Hi mom, it's Caitlin!" I said excitedly. I heard a shuffle on the line. "You have no business calling me." She said. "Wait!" I almost screamed but I heard the phone click off.
 "ARGH!!!" I almost yelled but noticed Sam was still in my arms. "Your grandmother is a piece of work!" I said aggrivated. Why couldn't the woman just get that I was sorry and take some pride in me!
 I put Sam in his crib.
In the morning I got up and picked Sam up. It was fun day then birthday evening. I didn't want him to age up, but I really didn't have a choice.
 "Tickle tickle tickle!" I said with a smile tickling the snot out of Sam. He burst out with giggles. "Mommy is funny." He said with a final laugh.
 Then we strolled to the nearby park. "Flutterby!" Sam said pointing at a small butterfly. "It's pretty!" I said with a smile. It landed on Sam's nose. He sneezed and it flew away. Sam started bursting out with giggles.
 At the park there was a nice burglar there. He was just walkin around not doing anything harmful.... I decided to not come in contact with him....
 I roamed the edge of the park so I didn't have to come to him face to face. Okay, maybe it was just a costume OR maybe I would be deemed worst parent for bringing Sam anywhere near him but honestly nothing could ruin this day. It was going to be perfect.
 I put Sam on the little motored rocketship. At first he didn't know what to do. "It's okay. It's a ride." I said sealing it with a smile. He started to rock on it.
 "There ya go!" I said sticking my thumbs up in the air. "Perfect!"
 Sam must not have thought so. He lifted up his arms and said "No more mommy..." So I picked him up with no hassle. "Home now?" He asked smiling. "Yes we will go home." I said with a grin.
 Once we got home I taught Sam how to use the potty then I decided to age him up. I was wary with the cake but I purchased the fireproof homestead so hopefully that insurance would stick to its name.
Sam grew up to be a cutie!!! He has the genious trait and told me himself he wants to be a philosopher when he grew up. I laughed and told him good luck. I could see him as a doctor... Maybe not a philosopher.. But ya never know.
 I invited all of my children over to my house to take a large family picture. The following could not make it although I called them 10 times each. Un, Maddilin, Mai, Nicole, Haydon, and Tatiana. Sooo 20 out of 26 wasn't bad at all. I was really excited when they all arrived. I hadn't seen them in a while.
 All of my children. 1-26 minus a few. They were all amazing with the picture I can't believe they all got in the group form..
 All of the girls. There are a lot of them now that I actually notice. Girls outweight boys by three tons!!!
 And this proves my point... Here are the boys. They are only missing Un. I love how they posed! Sam looks so heroic!
 All of them chatted and mingled and met their other siblings. They all got along great!
At the end just for the heck of it Sam wanted his own picture taken. He gave a small wave and I snapped the pic. I love this kid.
 In the morning my doorbell rang. There was a strange man standing there. Looks like baby daddy came to me! YES!!! He claimed he was a real tiger put in a human body. That was a bit weird but I played along.
 I let him in and he intorduced himself as Tiger Inthe Woods. Not to be confused with Tiger Woods. I let him be a father and he gave me a gift. It was a........ car...... WEIRD!!!! Well anyway... We got to know each other then I led him to my room. You know exactly what happened there. After I heard the jingle I had to break the news.
 "You know we can only be friends right. Challenge rules...." I said with a grin. "I thought you were engaged?" He asked. I looked at him. "Well that too..." I said.
Then he freaked out like they ALWAYS do. I sent him on his way and he left. All that matters is Baby 27 should be on its way anytime now.
 "I host a tea party!!!" Sam shouted out throughtout the house. Even though he was talking to a doll... That some creepy unknown relative from the dead sent him. His was named Wiggles.
 While he was busy playing with Wiggles I threw up a bit. Then I cleaned the house.
 I even repaired the dishwasher which I hated doing because I would get shocked a little bit. I haven't been electrocuted Yet though..
After my eventful day the little one kicked. This pregnancy is going by fast.
 My bump grew a bit before nightfall. Then all of a sudden a mysterious song came on. Honestly I though I was being robbed,.
 Until I ran outside and saw my little Scarlet. She was floating around outside so I went to her. She looked at me and smiled. "Mommy can you read me a bedtime story?" she asked sweetly. I couldn't say no. "Of course I can sweety lets go upstairs and find one!" I said with a smile.
 She picked out a mystery I read it to her with no problems. When it was finished she was still awake.
 "Thank you." She whispered. Then she vanished. Back to underworld I assume.. That was sweet though. <3
 Day 2!!! <3
 Sam and I watched a movie after he got home from school.
 Then I helped him with his homework. He was in elementary school doing highschool work. I was pretty amazed.
Then he asked me to read him ABC's the logic of downsizing to bed. I read it to him and he absolutely loved it. I tucked him in and kissed his forehead as he drifted off to sleep.
 Baby bump day 3! <3
 Suddenly after Sam left for school I went into labor.
 A painstakingly 5 hour long labor. I made a lot of hilarious faces.
In the longrun I gave birth to a cute baby boy. Welcome to the world little Harry. Welcome to the world.

The ending is quite suckish because honestly I was really done with this post once it started. I lacked  motivation so the ending was shaky. I PROMISE the next post will be funner and more full of light instead of darkness. Thanks for reading! Comments are my friends and I Like LOTS of them! They make me smile every time I see one. Please follow and show all of your friends! Thanks for reading!
