The days turned into weeks, and Finn became a constant presence in Knock's life. They would often meet up for meals, go for walks together, and simply spend time in each other's company. Finn's easygoing nature and genuine care for Knock made him feel special and loved, and slowly but surely, Knock found himself at least letting go of the pain and sadness he had been carrying.
One evening, as they were walking along a serene lake, Knock couldn't help but speak his mind. "Finn, I just want to thank you for everything. You've been such a bright light in my life, and I don't know what I would have done without you."
Finn smiled warmly at Knock and squeezed his hand. "Knock, you don't have to thank me. I'm here because I want to be. I care about you and your baby, and I want to be a part of your life."
Touched by Finn's words, tears welled up in Knock's eyes. "I've been so scared, Finn. Scared of being alone, scared of raising my baby by myself. But you...you've given me hope. You've shown me that there's happiness and support waiting for me."
Finn gently wiped away Knock's tears. "You're not alone, Knock. I'll be here every step of the way, supporting you and helping you build a beautiful future for you and your child. You deserve all the love and happiness in the world."
Knock smiled through his tears, feeling a sense of relief wash over him. He had found someone who truly cared for him, someone who was willing to stand by his side and help him face whatever challenges lay ahead. With Finn by his side, he knew he could handle anything.
As time went on, Finn and Knock's bond grew stronger. Finn was there for every doctor's appointment, holding Knock's hand and listening attentively as they heard the baby's heartbeat for the first time. He would often bring gifts for the baby.
Meanwhile, Knock's friends continued to support him, always there to lend a helping hand or a listening ear whenever he needed it.
