Today was the day, Lana was going home...her home with Oliver. She was nervous not knowing what to expect, her nerves must have been getting to her lately as she was throwing up every morning, Oliver insisted a blood test to be taken to ensure Lana was in perfect health. Oliver finally had his Lana and he wouldn't let anything get in his way from finally having her. Oliver was packing Lana's bag, she was standing directly behind him, fixated on him. Lana thought Oliver was a very attractive man, and deep down she knew she felt something for him, she just didn't know what it was yet. Lana knew she had to try, she was his wife right? That meant she fell in love with him once, why couldn't she fall in love a second time? She had to try it, she owed it to Oliver, the man who never left her side, she could tell he loved her unconditionally. Lana wanted to feel that too, she saw him turn around to see if she was okay, he did this a lot, she adored that he cared for her so much.

Suddenly Lana began to feel weak in her knees, her head started to spin and everything was becoming blurry. Her legs began to give way, but not before calling out Oliver's name. Oliver ran over to Lana in sudden panic, just catching her before her body collided with the cold concrete ground.

"Lana!" Oliver screamed in panic as Lana fell into unconsciousness.

Oliver lent over the crib, slowly creasing Lana's hand, she had been unconscious for an hour now. Oliver would have been ripping his hair out in worry if the doctor didn't reassure him, discussing the results of Lana's blood test. Oliver was now frantic with excitement, he just wanted Lana to wake so he could share the great news.

The soothing movements of fingers dancing around on her hand work Lana up with sudden shock. The touch sent shivers up her arm, forming goosebumps along the way. Her eyes opened with urgency, surveying the room before her, panic struck her as she couldn't remember falling asleep. Her heart began to race, sweat began to form on her forehead, her hands began to shake.
"Oliver," she screamed as she sat up in her bed anxious, breathing heavily.
"I'm here," he smiled back at her placing his hands on top of hers and kissing her softly on the forehead. Lana began to cry, she just wanted to be herself again so badly, but she didn't know who 'herself' was?
"Lana?" Oliver asked concerned, "what's wrong?"
Lana squeezed Oliver's hand tightly, "I still don't know who I am," she cried out loud.
"It's okay love, everything is going to be okay," Oliver reassured her rubbing small circles on her back as her calmed her down. Lana was still very confused, she couldn't figure out these conflicting feelings she felt towards Oliver. She prayed that is was just the confusion, after everything he told her about their married life, they must have been in love. She had to get though this if she believed she would be happy again, she had to try, for Oliver, he deserved to have his loving wife.
Lana sighed whipping away her remaining tears, and decided she wanted to get out of bed, her legs felt like jelly and she wanted to move around.
"There we go," Oliver said slowly helping her out of her bed, placing his hand around the small curve of her back, it felt strange to lana, not bad, but strange.
"How are you feeling?" He asked looking deeply into her chocolate brown eyes.
"Sore and tired," Lana replied yawning, Oliver smiled seeing her yawning was something he found adorable.
"They are common symptoms," Oliver said turning his position so he had his arms wrapped around Lana. He didn't want her to faint again when he informed her about their new addition.
"Lana," Oliver began to say gently, "you scared the hell out of me earlier," he said cupping her face with his hand.
"I'm sorry," Lana replied looking sad, she felt bad for Oliver, she didn't deserve this kindness.
"But it's okay, you are okay, we are all going to be okay. Do you know why that is Lana?" Oliver asked placing a loose piece of hair behind her ear.
Lana had a confused look wash upon her face, she didn't know how to reply.
"Because, you are pregnant Lana, as confirmed by your blood test. We made a child, we are going to be a family." Oliver spoke with pure affection and excitement. Lana was baffled by this new sudden information, she wasn't sure on how to comprehend all this news. She was pregnant? How? But then it hit her, they must have had sex a few weeks prior to the accident, were they trying? Was this an accident? Lana didn't know. She was going to be a mother, this was the scariest information she had received yet. Her whole body went limp, frozen, she couldn't remove. Oliver saw the look in Lana's eyes and knew she was having a difficult time comprehending a this information, it made him a little nervous, so he decided to break her thoughts with a romantic kiss. The kiss was sudden, shocking Lana at first, she returned the kiss though, liking the sensation of his lips upon hers. The way the tasted, the texture, the moist feeling, is was all overwhelming, but at the same time calming, it relieved her, made her forget her nerves and fears. From Oliver's kiss and excitement, she gathered that this was happy news, that he wanted a child, a child with her, he wanted a family, and that is exactly what Lana was going to give him, Oliver's kiss made her feel as if it was all possible.

Later that day the nurse came in for Oliver to sign some forms for Lana's release, according to her this place was a hospital for sick people, not the mentally insane. Oliver couldn't whip the smug look that was shining brightly on his face, he was filled with joy, he was about to have everything he wanted and wished for in life, a real family.

"Oliver?" Lana asked lightly caressing his arms, feeling the warmth sensation travel up her body.
"Yes dear?" Oliver asked handing the forms back to the nurse and placing her hands in his.
"Do you think we can get something to eat? I'm a little hungry," she said smiling and flashing her chocolate Brown eyes at him. He couldn't resist her charm, she was just amazing to him.
"Why of course love, now that you are eating for two." He said smiling and kissing her on the forehead. Lana felt a sudden panic wash over her, the realization of the future of motherhood upon her shoulders. It frighten her, but the touch of Oliver gave her absence of relief.
"Are you ready to go home?" Oliver asked with adoring eyes. Lana nervously nodded in response, not quite knowing what to say.
"Well let's you two something to get first," he said placing his hand on Lana's lower Abdomen "mommy," he said smirking. Lana after hearing these words, began to feel an unknown sensation creep upon her, something about that sentence gave her an eerie feeling.
