Empty Fingers

Ava Grace

Kate
I swear I wanna beat Elliott up, my water broke and I couldn't get him to wake up. I had to call security to help me get to the hospital and to wake him up and let him know I am going by ambulance. The EMTs look at me like I am crazy as I am trying to stand up and carry my bags with me. They grab the bags and put me on the gurney and strap me in and put the gurney into the ambulance. Of course Elliott is running around with his wet hair and pajamas on and slippers. Security is getting him into the car and we are off and they are following the ambulance to the hospital. I am looking at the clock and it's going on three am my labor is hitting me hard. Anastasia told me that babies don't come on your schedule because they have minds of their own. She is right about that.

Elliott
I kept hearing things and suddenly cold water hits my face. Security has poured cold water on my head. They tell me Kate is about to get into an ambulance and her water has broken. I jump up and grab my phone and keys, I put my slippers on and we are off and running. The ambulance just shut the doors and they are gone. We are right behind it and someone hands me clothing and my regular shoes and socks. I realize I need to put the clothes on and I do that. Can't have my bottoms open up like that in the hospital. I cover myself as I change out of the pajamas and put the underwear and jogging pants on and my tennis shoes on. They found a pullover as well. Now I feel better except my hair needs combed. Oh well.

Kate
Elliott finally found me in the delivery room and I am prepped and ready to push again. We don't know what we are having but it better be good and fast. It took a lot of pushing to get my loud mouthed little girl out of me. Fifteen hours of hard labor and my tiny baby girl screamed out loud enough to alert people in the hallway of her entry into the world. Ava Grace Grey is all of 5 pounds and is 18 inches long. She came three weeks early. Elliott has called everyone about Ava being born and we are soon in a private suite with Ava in a crib. Security had been compromised and someone thought they could get Ava. They didn't know that Grace, Robert, Ruth and Anastasia were on duty and had went to check on Ava and they caught a woman trying to leave with her. Anastasia stopped her and alerted the police along with security and she was arrested. It was an ex girlfriend of Elliott's that somehow knew our baby was born. It turned out she worked at the hospital and she was in the admissions department, when they admitted me. She was arrested and charged with kidnapping my child. She left the nursery with Ava and was stopped by Anastasia and asked where she was going with the baby? Anastasia alerted security and they told her to stop and Anastasia took Ava away from Jean Rochester. He went out on two dates with her and she stalked him until he got a restraining order against her.

Jean Rochester
That baby should have been mine, it would have been had Dr Anastasia Grey not caught me and knew I wasn't supposed to be carrying the babies from the nursery. I am sitting waiting for a public defender. I just can't believe I got caught so quickly. So here I am no way to get bailed out. I lost my job because of my actions. I took what was mine and that baby was mine. 

Roger Rochester
I can't believe Jean is sane after her taking the Grey baby. We can't afford bail or an attorney. She violated the restraining order that ordered her to stay away from all the Grey family. She pulled some pretty bad things to get close to Elliott. She befriended Mia, then tried to go out with Christian when he got married she got a job as the catering crew. How she did that was not a story I want to think about. Then she found her way into his wedding and she was caught about to stop the wedding. Security caught her every time. That's when they filed the restraining orders to prevent her from going near any Grey family members and it included future Grey family. Their offspring included even though they didn't exist yet. I knew when she saw Kate Grey pregnant that she had finally went over the edge. She bought maternity clothing and baby supplies and pretended to be pregnant with Elliott Grey's baby. I tried to get her committed but I couldn't get anyone to help me do it. She would go in and fool them all. She refused to allow me access to her medical records and wouldn't get a pregnancy test.

Anastasia
I just happened to be at the nursery and security hadn't arrived to guard Ava yet. I noticed a woman picking up Ava and covering her up and she was acting very suspicious. It was her checking the areas that had me thinking she wasn't supposed to have any baby in her arms. So I got security up there immediately and blocked her path to leave. Soon guards were there and they held her while I took Ava from her. She started screaming at the top of her lungs saying it was her baby. She was identified as Jean Rochester from the billing department and Elliott's ex girlfriend. They did a DNA test and it was Kate's Ava. I was glad that I went to check on Ava for Kate. Mothers have this I ate sense when their child is in danger near or far.
