It was the day after Amy gave birth and she had stayed in the hospital over night, Rory had gone home and their daughter was still in intensive care.

Rory turned up about an hour after Amy woke up with some flowers and some chocolate. "Hey, how are you feeling?" He kissed her gently and sat next to her bed in the chair.

"Awful, I hardly slept last night, I'm so worried about her Rory".

"I know me too, while we're on the subject though, we still need a name for her"

"What names do you like?"

"Well, I was talking to her yesterday, and I told her that I had faith in her, I really like Faith as a name.

"Faith Williams...I like it".

"Good, that's settled then" he smiled, "have you eaten anything this morning?"

Amy shook her head, "Im not hungry"

"You said that when the nurse gave you your dinner yesterday, amy you need to eat".

"No I don't, Rory, what I need is to hold my daughter and feel like a proper mum, I hate being stuck in here, not being able to do anything for Faith, I already lost one child, I don't want to lose another".

"Amy, we are not going to lose Faith, I promise, she's going to be okay, losing the first child was not your fault, you were under a lot of stress at the time".

"Yeah because you went missing".

"Amy that wasn't my fault, I am not the one you should be blaming here".

"Who am I supposed to blame then? Nobody? I went through hell then and I am going through hell now".

"So am I, Amy, you think it's easy for me? Going home at night without you, without Faith, I didn't sleep at all last night, and it's going to be the same thing for the next couple of weeks".

"I can't talk about this right now, I'm going down to the cafeteria for something to eat".

"Fine, then I'm coming too".

"I don't need a babysitter Rory, why don't you go and see Faith or something, I'll see you later". She left the room and went downstairs, leaving Rory alone.
