A Family At Last

Act like a father

(Jerome's POV)

I wake up to noises of the door opening and closing. I see Skyler come in. "Hey, where's Ian?" I whisper, Rain is still sleeping and she really needs sleep. She smiles at us, "He is using the bathroom. He'll be back in a minute."

I just nod, trying not to wake up Rain. "Here, I figured you'd be hungry." She tosses me an Arby's bag. I smile. "You're right, I'm starving. If you want you can take my place. You look like you're tired." She nods and I get up carefully as she takes my place.

"Thanks, sleep well." I smile and she closes her eyes. Its about eight minutes later before Ian comes back in, behind him is Ty. "Hey, what took you so long?" Ian looks over at Ty who is looking at all the doctor technology. "Can you talk to him at the hotel? I tried talking to him but you know I'm bad at that kind of stuff."

I frown at first, not wanting to leave Rain. But then I nod, Ty is hopefully going to to be me and Rain's child. I have to act like a father and help him through his problems. "Okay, call me if anything goes wrong." He nods, "Thank you, you know... You'll be a good father to him."

I smile, "And you'll be a awesome father to baby Mitch or Dawn. I know it." I squeeze his shoulder and walk over to Ty. "Do you want to come with me, I'm going to the hotel." He looks at me, "But what about Rain?"

I turn and look at Rain, "Ian and Skyler are here. Also I think I need to relax and calm down for a bit." I smile. "Um, sure that would be nice. Thank you." He smiles very faintly and we walked out of Rain's room to my car.
