Sudden Response (EMS #1)(74)

"Yes, ma'am," he heard Jeff say.

"Here we go," Eric said as the baby's shoulders cleared. He caught hold of his wiggling son as Teddy swooped in and wrapped the screaming infant up in a swaddle.

He smiled down at his son as Teddy quickly moved to tie off the cord and cut it. Jonathan, a fire fighter and part time EMT moved in to help wipe the baby down. Not once did his baby stop screaming and Eric couldn't have been prouder. He didn't think it was possible to be happier than he was at that moment. Of course Joe just had to go and wreck his moment of bliss.

"You are so buying me a steak dinner for this," she bit out.

His eyes shot to his brother who simply shook his head with pity. "Little gold digger," they both grumbled, earning a killing glare from the woman he absolutely adored.

Life really couldn't get any better, he decided as he placed his screaming child in Joe's arms and leaned over to kiss her, narrowly missing her shot to his balls.

"I love you, you little gold digger," he whispered against her lips.

The End.......
