During her last appointment, Carson suggested she spend the last two weeks of her pregnancy off her feet and not working. Not that Alex was in any danger - he just wanted to make Fred was rested enough for when she went into labor. She knew it was for ther own good but it didn't stop her from being bored. And, with everyone else working, she had no one to hang out with.
Finally, it became too much and, after struggling to stand, Fred grabbed her headset and left the quarters. She didn't know where she was going but ended up in the lab. Rodney looked up at her and raised his eyebrows.
"I thought you weren't supposed to leave your quarters," he commented.
"I was bored and couldn't sit there any longer," Fred told him before looking down at one of the computers. "What're you working on?"
Rodney started to talk about his experiment and Fred tried her best to listen but she couldn't. Her lower back had been hurting and it was starting to again. She shifted from foot-to-foot and gasped when she felt something warm run down her legs. She pulled up her sundress a little and saw the wetness on the floor.
"Rodney...my water just broke!" She said with a wide eyed look. She attempted to say more but was hit with a contraction.
"Oh my god!" Rodney said as he hurried her to her. However, when he hit the wetness on the floor, he slipped and fell back, and hit his head against one of the machines.
Fred blinked and looked down at him. "Rodney?" she asked as she attempted to bend over to see if he was all right. Of course she couldn't so she toed him with her foot. "Rodney?!" When he didn't answer her, Fred started to panic. "I've killed him!"
Reaching up, she hit her earpiece. "John? You need to come to the lab. My water just broke and I think I killed Rodney!" she said.
