*a day later*

Hera's P.O.V

After lunch, me and Ezra went to see how Kanan was doing at the hospital. Yesterday, he didn't show any signs of waking up that day. So we are hoping today is the day my husband will open his eyes.

We both went on our way to the hospital in the Ghost. Six minutes later, I parked my car in the parking lot of the hospital. I was opening my door when a small hand grabbed my wrist. I turned to find Ezra with a worried look on his face. "What's wrong love?" I asked him. He looked at his lap and played with his fingers, "what if dad doesn't wake up?". My eyes widen, why on earth would he be thinking that?! I sternly looked at my son, "Ezra Jarrus, look me in the eye". He didn't look. "Ezra," I warned and misty blue eyes met with mine. I grabbed the sides of his shoulders and spoke with promises in my voice, "He will wake up. Don't ever give up hope or doubt that he won't". Ezra nodded his head and I gave him a warm smile.

We got out of the car and went inside. We walked to Kanan's room and opened the door to enter.

*an hour later*

I wasn't sure how long we have been here. Ezra fell asleep in a chair and laid his head on a table. I sat next to Kanan's bed about to take a snooze to. I was about to close my eyes when I saw the most amazing thing. One of Kanan's hands started to move. I reached over and grabbed his hand. I felt his thumb rub the back of my hand. I smiled as his eyes started to open. He turned toward me and smiled, "miss me". My eyes watered, "more than you know". I gently wrapped my arms around him and gave him a peck on the cheek. He used his strength to comb his fingers through my hair.

I undid my arms from him and looked at Ezra. "Do you want me to wake him up?" I asked Kanan. "Yes please and could you give us a moment?" He said. I nodded my head in approval and went to wake up Ezra. "Ezra, wake up," I said and shook him a little. My young man opened his eyes and rubbed them. "Whatcha need mom?" He asked. "It's not what I want," I said and added, "it's what your father wants". His head perked up at the mention of his anchor and looked with a childish gleam in his eyes. Ezra stood up with the biggest smile and ran over to Kanan. I left the room but not before seeing Ezra giving Kanan a one armed hug. I closed the door with a smile and decided to get something to eat.

Ezra's P.O.V

I gave dad a hug with my arm and I felt him brush his fingers through my hair. We stayed like that for awhile and then I sat down in mom's chair. "I heard what you said," dad said gazing into my eyes. I was confused, "what did I say?". He smiled, "that you missed me and love me". I blushed from embarrassment and stared at the floor. "Well I got something to tell you," dad said. I looked up and was focused on the next four words he said, "I love you too".

I smiled and he scooted over making room for me to lay with him. He patted the area and I crawled into the bed with him. Dad slung his arm around my shoulders and I couldn't help but lean into the warmth. I was feeling tired but I wanted to stay awake. "Ezra, you can sleep if you want to," I heard dad say and I fell into my first peaceful slumber since dad being in a coma.

*couple hours later*

Kanan's P.O.V

The doctors said I could be let go. I was happy that I could go home with my family once again. We grabbed to-go food and went home. After supper, all of us including Chopper, was watching Sully. It was a good movie and it was true. Then we decided to hit the sack afterwards.

I put on my pjs and brushed my teeth. I turned the lights off and got under the covers. I closed my eyes and went out like a light.

I woke up at about two in the morning when I felt the bed was wet. 'What the?' I thought and sat up rubbing my eyes. "K-Kanan," I heard Hera say. "Why is the bed wet?" I asked Hera. She was breathing heavily as I pulled the covers off. Blood. A huge puddle of blood. There was even blood stained on my clothes. Then Hera said, "The baby's coming".
