Wally stopped at the Central Memorial Hospital, frantic. "Hey! Hey nurse lady! My girlfriend's having a baby!" Wally yelped. "I need you to fill out this form." She said, handing Wally a clip board with about six pieces of paper.

"Aah!" Artemis cried out, her hands gripping her knees, hunched over. "Someone get this a girl a chair! Excuse me, what's your Doctors name?" The nurse asked.

"Doctor Shardon." Wally said.

"Artemis you are only three centimeters, so it'll be a while before you can get an epidural, and even longer before you can start pushing." Doctor Shardon explained, after examining Artemis.

"Oh c'mon!" She yelled, pulling her hair. "I know, but all we can do now is wait." she told Artemis and Wally. "How long till she can get the epidural?" Wally asked. "Once she reaches six centimeters." She replied.


(01:17 a.m.)

"Are you okay?" Kaldur asked, entering the hospital room. "Do I look okay Kaldur? I've been here over two hours and I'm still only three centimeters." Artemis groaned.

"Labor's weird. You feel like crap the first five centimeters, then wonderful the next four, and then like crap again for the final one. And pushing hurts!" M'gann told her, currently pink and in a white Happy Harbor sweatshirt and gray cotton pants.

"Megan? Not helping." Artemis sighed.

"I'm sorry." "So where are the twins?" Artemis asked. "Sleeping. RT's back home watching them." M'gann said. "You all go home, get some sleep. It'll be awhile." Wally said.

"Nope. We're staying here." Robin grinned.


(03:27 a.m.)

Four centimeters. She was finally 4 centimeters. Artemis was so happy she could cry.

"God! When's this thing gonna come flying out of me!" She yelped. "Or in your case, when's it gonna come running out of me!" she hissed, angrily, at Wally.

Okay, so not that happy.

"It's still gonna take a while Artemis." Dinah frowned, as Wally held her hand during a contraction. "I hate this." Artemis sighed, on the verge of crying.

"Wally! I swear this kid better be 22 years old before you get me pregnant again or you'll be sleeping on the roof for now on!" Artemis growled. Wally frowned, kissing her hand.

"I'll leave you two alone for a moment." Dinah muttered, leaving.

"Hey Arty, I know the pain is really bad, but remember this. Once the baby's out, the pain will be gone, and it'll be so worth it." Wally said.

"I hope to God you're right Wally."


(04:34 a.m.)

Still four centimeters.

"So do you think the baby will be born before noon?" Zatanna asked. "Ha! I don't think this baby will be born today!" Artemis scoffed.

Zatanna chuckled, holding her hand. "So where's Wally?" She asked. "I told him he could sleep until I hit eight centimeters. He's crashing in the waiting room." Artemis explained.

"So where's your Nom?" Zatanna wondered, looking around for Mes. Crock. "I asked Ollie and Wally's uncle Barry not to get her until I reach six centimeters." She said.

"You should get some rest Zatanna." Artemis said. "Okay, and I wish I could speed up your labor, but I can't. Sorry." She said.

"It's okay."

As Artemis laid there, completely bored out of her skull, she smiled when she felt the baby move around and kick her belly button.

"Hey there baby. Just a little while longer and we get to see you, and you get to see me and Daddy." Artemis cooed.

"Daddy wants you to have my hair and his eyes. So are you gonna look like that? Or are you going to have red hair and gray eyes? I wish I knew." Artemis sighed.

"If you're a girl, I want you to have my eyes and daddy's hair. If you're a boy, you can be blonde."


(06:03 a.m.)

Six centimeters. Artemis was finally six centimeters, and able to get an epidural.

It felt great!

Ollie and Barry had even gotten Paula, and would bring her back to Central. Now that she was past five centimeters, labor would go faster.

Thank God!

So maybe the baby would be born before noon. But only time would tell.

"Hello Artemis." Paula cooed rolling into the room. "Hi Momma." Artemis said. "Why didn't you get me sooner?" She scolded.

"I asked them not to until I hit six centimeters. I've been here since like 11:30." Artemis groaned. "You needed sleep." she added softly.

"I can't wait until the baby's born." Paula said. "Same here. I love you mom." "I love you too."


(06:41 a.m.)

"Hey beautiful." Wally said. He held her hand in his own, kissing her cheek. "Wally, my ass is asleep." Artemis moaned.

Wally just laughed. "I love you so much." He said, stroking her cheek. "I love you too." she said, in a barely heard whisper.

"Just a few more hours, from what Doctor Shardon told me." Wally said. "I can't wait. I just have three more centimeters, then I can push." Artemis said.

"Nervous?"

"Scared actually. But I'll be alright."


(10:15 a.m.)

"Artemis, it's time to start pushing. Now set your feet up on this, and I want you to push down against your abdomen, but only during a contraction okay?" Doctor Shardon said.

Artemis nodded, holding Wally's hand.

"Okay, in three, two, one. Push." She instructed. Artemis held her breath, releasing slowly as he pushed, and Doctor Shardon counted down from ten.

"Good. That's good. Baby's head is almost crowning." "You mean it's not even there yet!" Artemis groaned.

"I know. But luckily you've got another contraction. Now, push."

Artemis's breath hitched in her throat. This push hurt like hell! And she couldn't figure out how Wally could watch the space between her legs and not barf!

"Baby's heads out."

Artemis collapsed. Next time, she was having a C-Section! According to Shardon, all she needed was to get the shoulders out and their baby would be there, in the world, in their arms.

Another push. She went through another push, but nothing happened. The baby didn't move; it was still in Artemis's cervix.

Wally was getting annoyed. He wanted to see the baby. He wanted see the baby him and Arty created nine months ago.

And they were here, on this day, because of a tiny rip in the condom they were using. Who the hell would've thought?

He watched the area between Artemis's legs, waiting- wanting- for the baby to be there already. Suddenly, the baby slid out, and he saw it.

He saw his son.

"He's here." Wally said. Artemis didn't hear him. "What?" she asked, still dazed.

"It's a boy." he grinned.

Doctor Shardon held up the squirming, now screaming newborn, for Artemis to see.

Wally was right.

It was a boy.

They had a son.

Doctor Shardon cut the cord, and carried him off to clean him up. Artemis and Wally's gaze never left him. "Wally! He's a little blonde you!" Artemis cried.

She was right. Besides the golden blonde locks, he looked just like Wally did when he was a newborn.

Artemis gladly took her son in her arms. He was tiny, wrapped perfectly in a sky blue blanket, a matching blue hat on his tiny head.

"Go introduce our son to everyone." Artemis said, handing him to Wally.

"And tell my Mom I wanna see her please!" Artemis added.


(10:48 a.m.)

Wally stepped out, a smile planted on his face when he heard everyone gasp at the blue blankets he held snug in his arms.

"Oh Wally!" His mother gasped, holding her husbands hand.

"Guys, this is Jai. Jai Michael West." Wally introduced his son.

"So how's Artemis?" Conner asked. "She's good. Paula, she wants to see you." Wally said. Paula rolled off toward her daughters hospital room.

"Hi Momma!" Artemis grinned. Paula rolled over to her daughter, as Artemis sat up and hugged her.

"Oh honey. You did great, and Jai's beautiful." Paula said. "Thanks mom. Doctor said he weighs eight pounds! Eight! That's like a watermelon!" she cried.

Paula laughed, holding her daughter's hand.


(11:34 a.m.)

As Wally rocked his son slowly around the room, humming, someone stepped in.

The Wrights.

"What the hell are you two doing here?" Artemis cried. "Look, I know we backed out Artemis, but please-" Paige began, only to have Wally cut her off.

"Get the fuck out before I call security!" He hissed. Wally handed Jai to Artemis, who clutched him protectively in her arms.

"Don't talk to my wife like that!" Chance hissed. "Stay away from my son! And his mother!" Wally snapped.

"I believe you two should leave." A man gripped Paige and Chance Wrights shoulders. The man was stronge and blonde.

Sportsmaster.

The married couple gulped, leaving without saying another word. Lawrence left a few moments after them.

"That. Was. Weird." Artemis said. Wally nodded in agreement, turning back to his new son.

Jai was beautiful.

At three days old he was now home, being fed by his loving mother. "He's finally here." Wally grinned.

"Yeah." Artemis smiled, humming a random tune as Jai suckled from her breast. "I have a son. You have a son. We have a son!" He said, laying beside her on their bed.

"Yeah. Do you think we'll survive the first night?" Artemis asked. Wally shrugged. "No idea."

They'd find out soon enough.
