Let Forever Mean Forever

Part 16

That Night

"Dinner was amazing baby thanks for thinking of that Italian restaurant," You said

"Great dinner after a relaxing day at the spa. How about a walk now?" Tommy asked.

"Sure," You replied and nodded your head.

The two of you were walking hand in hand through the small little town window shopping when the two of you passed an alley. Tommy pulled you to a stop and turned his head down the alley and he held his hand up when you open your mouth to ask a question. He let go of your hand and walked toward the dumpster. You saw his eyes grow wide as he scrambled to pull his jacket off and grabbed something.

"Tommy, what is it?" You asked, looking around his shoulder.

You gasped when you saw the tiny infant in a thin sheet, in his arms, whimpering. You looked around, trying to see if anyone was in the alley with the two of you, but there wasn't another soul. Tommy wrapped the baby up in the jacket and looked at you with tears in his eyes.

"What do we do?" Tommy asked.

"We need to take the baby to a hospital and then call the police. The hospital will know what to do. You hold it, Ill drive," You replied.

"Him, it's a. He didnt have a diaper on. You take him, and Ill drive. I know this town better than you.." Tommy replied.

The two of you dashed down the alley and two blocks down toward the car. Fumbling with the car doors, you climbed inside, as Tommy started the car and peeled out of the parking spot. You looked down at the little baby and sighed as he looked back at you. Your heart broke into a thousand pieces as his little green eyes looked back at you.

"Dont worry, little guy, we are going to make sure you are okay forever." You whispered.

(Tommy POV)

45 Minutes Later

Tommy sat in a rocking chair in the nursery of the hospital, holding the little boy in his arms. They connected the baby to all types of wires and had IVs in him to give the infant the nutrients they had been missing. The guitarist was already finding himself falling in love with the little boy and wanted to talk to you about adopting the boy as your own son. You came walking into the room carrying two cups of coffee in your hands.

"Tommy, let the boy sleep. We will come back and see him tomorrow." You whispered.

"They are going to set up a bed here in the hospital. I don't want to leave him just yet. Theres actually something I want to talk to you about," Tommy whispered back.

"Lets go outside. Put him back in his bed," You directed.

"Aiden is his name. I don't want to keep calling him it or the baby. Aiden James Thayer." Tommy replied..

"You want to adopt him, don't you?" You asked

Tommy turned and smiled at you before opening his mouth to give you the answer he had rehearsed for the last twenty minutes.
