Back In Time (Dan And Phil FanFiction)

Chapter 35: Holding You Close

February 11th 2018

Dan's POV

Jess had fallen asleep shortly after putting Isabelle's name on her birth certificate and we were about ready to take her home.

We wrapped in in a white onesie that we brought from home and she was nice and clean, fast asleep in Jess's arms.

Becca and Tommy went home and Phil was asleep in the hospital chair next to the bed, while I was awake; thinking.

Thinking about everything that's happened and what's about to happen. Our baby was now here, she had been born and brought to this planet by a strong amazing woman that I still love.

Yes, I admit it. I still love Jess so much, and not just because we had a baby together. I loved her because of who she was, but I knew we be together because of her dad.

After that incident I was terrified for Isabelle, I know that bastard was behind bars. But I would never risk it.

"Dan?" Phil croaked wincing his eyes and sitting up straight.

"Hey Phil, you alright?" I asked sitting in the chair next to him and he stretching his arms over his head.

"Yeah, I'm good. How do you feel?" He asked whispering slightly looking over at Jess who was holding Jess to her chest.

"I'm emotional, happy, scared. I don't know how I feel to be honest." I admitted and Phil chuckled patting my shoulder.

"I can't tell who Isabelle looks like. You or Jess." Phil said staring at Isabelle and smiled.

"Are you kidding? She's gorgeous, she's defiantly Jess." I told him and he chuckled yawning slightly.

"When are you able to take her home?" Phil asked rubbing his eyes.

"They said we can take her home today, the media's going crazy congratulating me and Jess." I said and Phil laughed slightly.

"It's nice to see that they are supporting you instead of sending hate comments." Phil stated and I nodded.

Shortly after me and Phil were talking for a while Jess woke up as I gently took Isabelle from her chest, and put put her in her baby seat strapping her in.

"Dan, do we have everything? Nappies, clothes, bottles?" Jess asked double checking the bag as I held the car seat.

"Yeah, I checked everything and we have more stuff at home. Come on Jess, don't you want to get out of this stuffy room?" I asked handing the car seat to Phil as I picked up the baby bag.

Jess sighed pulling on her grey jumper.

"Yes of course, I want to take Isabelle home and get out of here. I'm just scared, I don't know what to do." She sighed and I put down the bag and hugged her gently, she was still in pain after birth.

"I know, but I promised you that I'll be there all the way through. I don't intend to break that promise." I told her and she smiled as I kissed her forehead gently.

"Come on, let's go home." I told her and she nodded as she smiled at Phil as he handed her the baby seat.

Before we left JoJo walked into the room smiling at us.

"I just came to wish you two luck. I also came to remind you to sponge wash her until the clip on her cord falls off, and Jess how is breast feeding? Any pain, I'd she rejecting you're milk?" JoJo asked.
