After the honeymoon, Layla was pregnant. Dante wasn't exactly expecting this but he knew it was coming. Nine months. Nine months it took. Dante stayed with Layla the entire way. Through her cravings, the small kicks, everything.

When the time came Dante was with her the whole time in the hospital. He missed work, and alot of other things to be able to see this moment. And it was worth it.

There was no stopping it now. A child was born that day. After the doctors checked the baby out and found that everything was healthy, Layla and Dante finally got to hold their child. It was a boy. A handsome, baby boy with Dante's eye's.

The couple had already thought of a name for the baby, one for if it was a girl and one was for a boy. Dante held the baby in his arms and smiled as he looked down at him. "Aiden." Dante said. "Aiden Young." As he said this Dante heard something. Something he hadnt heard in a long time. It was a ringing sound. But when he looked around there was no Catalyst in sight. Than he looked in a mirror next to him with the baby in his arms and he heard it again. He looked down at the baby and back at the mirror. He shook his head and went back to Layla.
