" Genesis Lane Webber.... I think Laura would love that she has a sister named after her as well..." Lesley looked between Rick and the baby.

" I think that would be perfect and Laura would love that she has a tribute like that"  Rick replied and reached to give Lesley a kiss

" And what do you think of naming our other little one Jesslyn after Jessie.....?" Lesley asked and watched Rick with their second daughter.

" I think Jessie would absolutely love that especially as she has always thought of you as her own daughter.... " Rick replied

" They are so tiny when you hold them...." Lesley smiled.

As weak as Lesley still was, she continued to watch Rick with the twins even though she was starting to become tired

" Lesley honey why don't you rest.... Me and the girls we're gonna be here but you need to rest so when you get better, the 3 of us can take you home."

" Because just seeing you with the twins Rick... It's a great feeling to see you so happy..." Lesley answered

Rick placed the twins next to Lesley for alittle while and took ahold of Lesley's hands.

" Lesley, I'm a happy man because I have you and I'm very thankful that I didn't have to worry about making arrangements to have to say goodbye to you... Lesley you really had me scared... I can't even begin to picture my life without you nevermind think of that... If I were to lose you... I'd lose just about everything..." Rick replied and looked up at Lesley.

Lesley pulled Rick over close to her for alittle while just to spend that time with Rick.... " Rick, even if you had to come to that point, I'd always be with you... I'd always love you.. Rick I'm alright.... And that's all that matters"

Lesley had gone off to sleep while she had a chance as Rick stayed with the twins for alittle while and eventually he wanted to take Jesslyn up to see Jessie who was slightly improving but not enough to be transferred out of CICU

" We thought to maybe stop by and see our favorite person before we hopefully are able to take Lesley home finally." Rick said with a smile while walking in with the twins.

" Oh they must be those surprise twins you told me about..." Jessie said

" Yes they are....." Rick said with pleasure and continued. " They're early by a couple of weeks, but they're doing well. " Rick got out.

" How's it feel to be a father again ..." Jessie got out

" I'm the happiest man on the planet....and you need to get better so I can use that bed for someone else." Rick replied with a smile

" I wish I was going to recover, we just both know that it isn't the case with this one.... I was lucky that you got to me when you were called through"

" Jessie you will get through it, you've already been through the worst of it." Rick insisted

" Thanks to you and Monica" Jessie replied

" Jessie you get some rest you really need it" Rick said softly

~~~

Rick stepped out to let Jessie rest and brought the twins up to the NICU for alittle while before he returned to sit with Lesley. After a few hours Lesley had woken up to watch Rick attend for their twins but before she could say anything Monica had stopped by

" Lesley.... I thought to stop by to see how you were..." Monica said

" I'm hanging in there..... It's tough but I think I can manage to work through it while I am able to...." Lesley replied.
